I keep getting this pop up randomly (see picture) saying my SIM card has been removed so the phone will restart, then it just reboots.
Everything works as normal before and after.
Sometimes I even wake up to find my phone has rebooted (and is asking for the SIM PIN code)
Any ideas?
I have the same problem.
Still not find any solution?
They recommend reset to factory defaults(clean cache and wipe system)
But I have read many users suffered same symptom after doing this at lg g3 forums here.
Some of them changed sim cards?
Can you find the reason or solution?

Sounds like you both have developed a corruption or have been hit with some malware.
First, if you have a custom recovery installed, restore a clean backup, one where you know the issue hasn't occurred.
Best bet, if a clean backup is not available, is to first do a full scan including SD card with a good anti-malware app (scan your phone from your PC/Laptop, not from an app on your phone).
Next, reformat your SD card completely (preferably in a card reader on your PC/Desktop), and copy only one clean thing back over to it, insert it, then re-install your model's stock kdz with LGUP-NEW and see if the problem recurs before adding back one at a time anything you had on your SD card before and testing each one individually before adding any additional items back on your SD card.

Hey.
My desire is driving me crazy!
It is (was) rooted and s-offed with a Coolexe-ROM on it.
A few month ago I opened a thread where I described random reboots an freezes. This somehow stopped after 2 weeks or so and I could use my desire as usual. Before that, there was this problem with the SD card, which couldn't be mounted. It wasn't working anymore and I bought a new one.
Since yesterday evening the random freezes, reboots and shutdowns started again. So badly that I could hardly keep it on for a few minutes.
I noticed, that the signal bar was showing the little cross mark, so that I couldn't even place calls or text someone.
So I decided to do a RUU flash, hoping that rooting it again and so on would solve the problem.
Turns out it didn't!
The signal bar is randomly showing me the cross icon (sometimes I have H or G connection though). In this unrooted state it doesn't freeze, reboot or shut down.
I tried to save the data from my SD card 2 times (in harddrive-mode), but after a while the windows explorer wasn't reacting and crashed.
I was able to save some of the data though.
This seems like a hardware problem (doesn't it?)...
Has someone experienced similar problems? (could this be the famous motherboard fault?)
Is it the SD card, or is the desire bricking the sd card?
I have no idea what to do. Is this something I could fix myself or do I have to send it in?
Hope someone can help me...
edit: I just noticed, that when windows explorer crashes and I change back to charging only-mode, I cannot view the SD card state under the settings menu...
Did you try removing the SD card and use the SD card by a card reader?
Also flash a new Rom? Or factory reset?
Hope you have a nand backup
when I tried using a card reader my PC wouldnt even recognize the card...
after the RUU-flash I did a factory reset from the settings menu... or is there another way?
I mean, shouldnt it be like a factory reset anyways after a RUU-flash?
If I am correct ruu deals with the recovery and radio part
I'm not sure though
Try contacting senior members
as it seems my SIM card is at least part of the reason.
I put in another one and the connection problems are gone. but now they appear in the phone in which I put the old SIM ^^
so maybe (hopefully) it is just the SIM which I am going to change tomorrow in a shop.
Hey guys,
a few month ago, i created 2 threads here.
My sd-card simply stopped working and I couldnt find the issue, even replacing the slot did not help.
Today, suddenly, my bootloader recognized the card with a PC10IMG, just tried this one out.
I could upgrade, got to the newest radio, and android 2.3 (Virtous Sense 2) could use the sdcard.
But at first, wlan did not work, so i restarted the phone.
Now everything seems fine, except that after a few seconds, the SD-Card is "unexpectedly removed". or "damaged". I cannot format the card using the phone, even in recovery menu its unmountable after a few seconds. Example: I chose "install zip from sdcard", could find the rom on it, but when it started installing, the installation immediately aborted and after this, the sdcard wont answer anymore in any way. This is reproducable by simply formating the card again using the computer.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thx in advance..

Its possible the connections for the sd card slot are damaged or that you got a damaged replacement, or that you might have damaged it on installation. I'm leaning towards the connection on the main board being damaged in some way. it's strange that it is intermittent.

I dont think its a problem with our memory cards. Either the card slot that Samsung made is of very poor quality or it is a problem with the latest ICS firmware. There A LOT of people facing this problem out there including my cousin who is the only other person i know with an S3. Not only does his memory card slot disconnect and reconnect, it completely killed it, it does work anymore. In some situations online, i have seen that people have ruined 2-3 memory cards by putting it in the S3.
I am facing the same problem and it is getting on my nerves. I live in a third world country so I might not receive a new phone.
Please find a solution XDA FORUM! :crying:
Had the same issue with my S3.
Turned out that the SD card was dying (the card brand is Team Group), this caused it to be unmounted by itself and then mounted again (sometimes showing notification “sd card removed unexpectedly”), hence triggering the “Media” scanning process and significantly draining the battery.
I created an application to monitor how many times the SD card was removed, and turned out to be unmounted every ~3 mins!!!
I then bought a new Transcend 32GB Class 10 card (made in Korea), and until now, this never happens, no reports from the application whatsoever, and no media process eating my battery.
I just published this app in the play store now, this is the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sdcardmonitor
So I have a Samsung SD card and was immediately prompted to advise it was corrupt when I first flashed a CM/AOSP ROM. When I got the time to do so I backed up the contents, formatted from the prompt and copied stuff back over.
The problem now... The SD card cannot be written to by Titanium Backup. Edit the permissions platform.xml file you say? Nope didn't work. Nothing suggested worked.
I finally got it working by formatting everything, installing a Sense ROM and then formatting again once it said it prompted to. I can write to "SD Card 2".
However, I'm weary going back to AOSP/CW that I'll be back to square one again.
Has anyone encountered the same issues and what did you do?

Sort of. Every time I flash an aosp ROM it tells me the card is corrupt even if I'm just trying to use u it as portable/external. I backed everything up to my Mac book and formatted the card in the phone on CM13 but, when trying to transfer stuff back I lost my nandroids and a couple RUU.zip files. It still tells me the card is corrupted even though I did format it. I don't remember if I had write issues after that. At this point I have just about given up on aosp since I'm not going to copy and then format the card every time.
Same issue.
Does anyone have a solution for this ?

The SD shows up as corrupt, or Titanium can't write to it?
What did you try to do, and what were the results?
Posting "same issue" without giving any details is never a good way to post. More detail is always better.
Hi,
did you try this fix for TB?

No , I just get a notification that sd card is corrupt. There is option of setting it up too but in there when I select "use as portable storage , it asks me to format it ".
In any of the apps , sdcard doesn't show up or even option show sdcard.

I don't use AOSP ROMs on the M8, but I do on my Samsung Tab Pro 8.4. On that device, I get this error message (SD card corrupt) every time I flash an AOSP ROM. One thing that you can try which often works for me (but not always) is to put the card into a USB card reader, connect to PC. It should automatically detect the card, and give you a popup window asking you to scan and fix the problems. It has 2 choices with check boxes (forget what they say exactly) of which the first is checked by default, the 2nd is not (and takes a lot more time). Try the first choice, which should just take a couple minutes; and should also preserve the data on the card. Then re-insert the card into your M8 and see if it reads properly. If not, you may at that point want to copy the data on the SD to your PC while you can. You may need to resort to formatting the card, than copying the data back to it (I've had to do this at times).
I haven't seen any other solutions, or explanation of what is causing this.

Thanks , I'll try and doing so
Hey guys,
I removed my old 16gb micro sd card to make a copy for a new 128gb card on my pc. Once I put the same card back in, I started getting massive errors like the camera won't function, my wallpaper and nova launcher settings reverted to something kinda stock, but my icons were still in the same place. I can't get into my android settings "unfortunately the process com.android.settings has stopped" to attempt clear any caches. I did end up clearing my app caches using apps2sd but I'm stuck on what to do. I had xposed and g4 tweaksbox but disabled everything.
Edit: I just reset my phone using the power button options but I still can't get into settings, now I can't even re-enable developer options. Same problems as before.
I remember my sd card had some silly name of whatever_5888 but now it's not labeled at all, would that have something to do with it?
I'm running an LG G4 H812 rooted on Lollipop 5.1.1 no custom recovery. Damn Canadian version of this phone..
Thanks!
before you removed the micro sd, you did go into settings - storage - sd -card - unmount sd card ?
Did you unmount it or did you just power off and pull it is what i'm asking.
I didn't unmount, i turned off and removed the card.
It's alright though, I factory reset the phone using the power button trick while booting, but after I still couldn't get into the settings and the issues still were happening. So I reflashed back to stock and flashed the rooted system image. Man things were much simpler with the Nexus 5, I wouldn't have this Canadian variant which has a locked bootloader, so no custom recovery here..
It's all good! luckily I have root and titanium so all back to normal. I'll know next time to properly unmount, it just never happened to me before that's all.
Thanks mate

Exactly, as you've learned the hard way that not unmounting causes trouble. Was the micros adoptable storage or portable storage ?
Default wont allow adoptable but there are ways around that.

This is the part that amazes me, you had to reflash back to stock then the rooted image to fix what ? a removed microsd that the OS remembered was there but isn't any more and is unhappy.
My first thought would be to do operations on the card, not the phone. Since i learnt this lesson some time ago on JB i don't know if the following would work now or not.
- switch off the phone. remove the battery for a few seconds. re-insert sd card. Ensure its properly inserted. Then reseat battery. power up. If that does not work try the next.
- try to delete any items in the lost.dir folder on the sd card from another device.
- still not working, try to see if its viewable on a pc, copy everything possible, then format the card in an adroid device. Copy everything back to the card.
On JB you would get a micro SD card is damaged notification when reinserting a microsd that was removed without unmounting. If you had anything on the card, it showed up as empty but nothing was deleted, just the system forgot where everything was.
So as the title says my phone tells me to insert an sd card to use my camera which also causes problems with downloading images from WhatsApp or files from the Internet.
I am running CM14.1-20161202-NIGHTLY-D855 with gapps ARM, Android 7.1, Stock version.
I noticed that my sd card appeared to be unmounting itself whenever I rebooted my device, I tried formatting it, unmounting and rebooting but nothing seemed to work so I thought maybe it's just giving up and decided to buy a new one yesterday but alas, I have exactly the same issue. It's been formatted, unmounted, rebooted, remounted but nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?
Just incase anybody else is having this problem I have fixed the issue, You need to download the following app and just hit the fix button.

(Just incase the link doesnt work for any reason the app is called "Int-SdCard write fix")
