Now my wp7 phone suddenly reboots by itself
Does anybody face the same issue?
That could be due to overheating. Which device do you own? HTC?

mine kept restarting yesterday. The thing that fixed mine was taking out my SIM card and inserting it again. I think it came loose.
Did you replace the sdcard?

What devices are y'all using?!?!
I have a Focus and it's fine.
I'm using the LG Optimus 7.
I had no problems the first 2 weeks. Now it's becoming more and more frequent.
I heard that some HTC had the same issue. So I guess it's maybe rather OS-related than hardware-related.

Cool. Just saw you're living in Davis Does the Graduate still exist?
I got samsung focus and no problems with reboots. I haven't installed any extra SD cards yet (where the issue is mostly noted)
I have the Focus as well and no reboots here

I have an HD7. My sim card is crazy old, it has caused problems for me before.
This was the first and only time I have had anything weird happen with the HD7. But since it was my sim card's fault, it isn't a big deal.
I have an HD7 also, using the original sim card from the last 3 years and mine phone is working perfectly. No auto-rebooting at all.
got 1 reboot with lg optimus in 1 month.
Well, today i was wondering why my LG restarted itself for no reason.
It seems i'm not alone :-/

Haha, yeah my gf and I keep meaning to stop by there.
I have a Samsung Focus....16 GB SanDisk class 2 card installed. Mine is also rebooting itself for no reason and doing so with increasing frequency. Is the consensus that this is a software issue or should I get a replacement device?
i would suggest to remove the microSD card and try using the phone for a few days without a microSD card. see if it's working accordingly without it?

the only thing that sux with that is you lose that sd card I think. Can the phone reformat the card (I know nothing else can yet)?
Do you have weather bug installed? I was having no reboot problems after a weeks use, then I installed Weatherbug and had 2 reboots in 2 days. Uninstalled weather bug 3 days agon and not one reboot since
Only happened once (that I've noticed) - on a HTC Mozart.
I've got Waether bug installed as well (and it was playing up yesterday - seemed to be stuck on 'Tuesday'
Weather bug is OK again this morning, so I'll monitor this.....

worry about getting your phone working first, after this, we'll work on the sd card ok?
Blank SD card.(unsupported file system)
i try re-format it. but after awhile the problem just keep coming back.
i think the problem is the phone ( XPERIA ION OF CAUSE ) is putting something inside that cause it to have problem.
Note: i format it...(start from clean)
put some video inside. ( cause it happen before so i don't want to put a lot of things )
works fine for about a day?
i try to open the video by the photo widget, fail. video cannot be played
i reboot phone
Blank SD card.

Are you formatting the card with the phone or in your computer? Have you tried you phone with a different card? Maybe you have a damaged phone, same goes for the card. I got a 64 GB card for my phone, and had to format it with the phone before being able to use it, after that I haven't had any trouble. The only thing is that every time that I connect my phone through USB to my PC (Win7), it tells me the card is damaged and gives me the option of scanning and fixing it or ignore it. I choose ignore, but it a bit annoying to do it every time.

sounds like you have a faulty micro SD card, I had the same problem when I tried to put one into my blackberry. It worked fine on my computer but when I put it into my phone I kept getting errors, eventually it just stopped working all together.
I have a 64gb card and no problem at all. Pop it right in format using phone and just never have any problem with phone or laptop

Your phone came with a memory card?! Mine didn't.
Back on topic, I have had similar issues. I found that is I keep the phone in mass storage mode, and dont allow the internal memory to connect to the computer my issue goes away. I have ICS installed. So long as my internal memory does not connect, my issue has not come back. Give that a shot and see if it works for you as well.

I had this issue once with my OG Dinc. The card just stopped working in the phone but still works fine in the computer to this day. I would bet on your card being faulty.
As for the Ion sd card I feel cheated as mine came with a 4gb card. ?? Got it at Boo Buy also. Lucky for me I had just picked up a 8gb card for another Dinc I acquired.
I too, have the same problem. I have to reformated my card a few times since I got the phone (just about a month). My card is fine, but after using a while, it became unuseable even in my computer. Reformat it, everything's fine but a week later, it came back! I'm on 2.3.7.

Could just be the card. I've had bad ones from the start, had good ones go bad, etc..
I have a generic card that would not work at all unless it was put in to an adapter, and then only sometimes. I've since put it into my Zoom H2 recorder where it seems it's the only place it wants to work full time.
I personally won't buy any off brand SD cards anymore, Sandisk only for me, have yet to have one of these crap out yet.
Make sure you are unmounting the phone in windows before you unplug it. That is what corrupted my card on my incredible.

I see. I'm living in Vietnam, those brand-name cards are so expensive. This card I've used for more than a year with my old Arc, class 10, without any problem. Since it goes with my new Ion, there comes problems! I'm saving money to buy a new card based on your advice! Thank you so much!

Yes, I did it all the time and sometimes I turned off the phone to take the card out for safety. Thank you!
Mine didn't come with sht! wth???
Probably is the card though, I've had similar issues in the past, none with Ion though. Sdcards can be rather fickle and hidden files can get stuck on there much like on a flash drive. I have a box full of flash drives that are irreparable.
Try replacing the card first. Also I usually let Windows repair mine when it asks. Seems to help. eb

Not sure if this is common or not but I have tried everything I can think of, and I don't see anything.
I have a Samsung Galaxy s3 (brand new, stock build) but everytime I put in an sdcard The settings>storage still says I need to insert it.
I have resigned myself to it being a hardware issue, but I would really like a more pragmatic response
WTF man after 4 years I break with my n1 for this?!?!?!

I came here looking for answer to this issue and laughed before blowing in the slot fixed problem. Now why didn't I think of that?
Got a pre used Galaxy Appolo 15800 and it will not read from sd card. It knows the card is there but will not mount/unmount or format.
Went to shop and tried other cards but still the same.
I am told the phone was on contract to 3 network and althought it has been unlocked the shop man wondered if there was a feature set into the phone by 3 so that reader doesnt work when the phone is unlocked form their network.
along the lines of blowing into the slot, I cut a strip from an old credit card and wiggled it about inside..
Bingo........ all systems go!!!!!!

I simply cannot believe this!!... I searched and read countless XDA, AndroidCe*tral forums and tech (C-NET) blog entries just to find countless posts of failing/corrupted SanDisk 32GB Ultra cards (as mine) inside S3's guts. No other card was working either and was resigning to reflash stock ROM and take it so tech support.
An additional search try and came to this post... And still cannot believe a simple (but powerful) blow inside the SD card slot actually solved the problem!! Thanks man! You saved my day (and my S3, my SD card and a week using a crap replacement phone)! :good:

Hi all, I had the same issue and unbelievable, the nintendo method works quite well !!!
In fact if we put the sd card at the top of the slot and keeping it pushed, we can see the phone detect the sd card! so a little poke and then it's fine ^^

After an hour of searching every forum for ways to fix the same problem, I arrived here, with little hope of anything more than I had already found. I thought that it was funny, what you said. Then I said: "Meh, **** it. Let's give it a try."
It works. You are God.
*P.S. I use this website frequently to find fixes and updates, but I never really registered. Just so you understand how grateful I am for this. I know, I could have registered for an array of different reasons, but I want you to know that the reason I did it now is to thank you. For the fix and the laugh!
blowing doesn't work for me. formatting to exfat does.
thank god.
my workaround
Hi
it was twice succeeded for me
My s3 mini did not recognize SD card, but recovery was
Workaround:
remove sd card from phone
connect it to PC
do some copy from/to
attach it back to phone
Working!
I've tried everything said on this forum, nothing has worked. any other suggestions?

I'm also getting that same problem. I tried cleaning the micro sd with an eraser and the holder but i keep getting that message that the memory card has been ejected and immediately the phone starts checking it up. This doesn't happen when i'm using the sd, like when listening to mp3 stored in the micro sd.
Does anybody have a solution for this?

I'm using an Adata micro sd class 4. I've been using it for over a month and the problem started like a week ago.
And yeah, I want a new sd but i'm trying to see if the problem it's with the phone or the card and if there is something i could do to fix it.

Well all u can do ia format with sd formatter tool and try to use then if prob persist with this or even odr sd then ur phn slot maybe the culprit
I've got Samsung 64gb class 10. Problem isn't with the card because I've tried a few different ones and always get the same result.
I think I've narrowed it down to a little stub on the back cover which I think is supposed to help keep the card in tight. I've filed it off to see if that makes any difference and so far so good.

Could you take a pic of the stub? I'd be great if i could fix it instead of buying another 32gb sd.
Is anyone else having SD Card and App issues? I find that apps randomly disappear, and my SD card unmounts on its own, A LOT. About 3 or 4 times a day, with pretty light usage. My widgets disappear (on the apps that are now gone), and settings crashes if I try to go into it to view the installed apps. I've tried a reformat of the SD card, I've tried wiping/restoring the device (3 times now). The only way it seems to "restore" the missing apps/SD card is I turn the device on/off several times. It doesn't seem to have a cause, it'll just stop. It's quite frustrating, and is actually keeping me from using the tablet.
Anyone experiencing anything like this? Do I have a bum unit?

I have the same card and have been using it for a couple months with no problems before this tablet but I'm having consistent issues with it as well as the OP! My problems are different as sometimes it shows nothing on the card, sometimes it will start copying from the card to the tablet and then fail.
After having these problems I formatted the card via the tablet with no difference. I bought this thru Tiger Direct 7-10 days before 10/10. Is this a good enough reason to exchange or do I buy a 2nd card first?

I used a second SD card I found lying around, works fine. It's an SD card issue. I sent it back, and just got my replacement now, we'll see how that replacement goes. I would say you should talk to TD for a replacement. It should at least help narrow down your issues.

currently im running a sandisk extreme 64gb no issues, swapped in the sandisk ultra 64gb from my s4 no issues, it wasnt till i swapped in the extreme pro 16gb that t started to act funny, mounting and dismounting...
I haven't had any mount/unmount issues.
The only thing I saw was after I inserted my SD card last night, two games (both Unity, btw), no longer thought they were installed on my tablet. Luckily, when I re-installed them from the Play Store, I didn't lose any of my save game progress ^_^
