so basically I FINALLY got a 16 gb mico sd card for my nexi. The problem is though, that whenever I try to transfer files to it, it usually says a little way in that the file location is too deep (or something. This was last night) And then it stops working and the card becomes damaged. I repair it in RA and mount it and it appears to be the music folder usually. After this happens, and it's all repaired (Sometimes i don't have to repair I've noticed) everything in the music folder is corrupted and has a bunch of random symbol names.
I have it formatted the standard way with a swap, ext and fat32. Does anyone have any ideas I'm pretty sad about this
Could be a damaged card?
With my class 4 sandisk 8gb i had some problems in the beginning.
I formated the card via the phone software and the card wouldnt work.
I manually formated the card via android sdk consol = card worked
I also tried via RA recovery = card worked.
The card should work if u format i correctly trough RA.
If not the card may be broken. Maybe theres an app that tests cards available?
Or you could put the card in a card reader and test the card via software on the pc?
Well it only happens when I'm transfering music though for some reason.

I have a 2gb storage card that use to work before I bricked my phone. So, I sent it to Cingular for them to fix it and they did. But now I am trying to install back the files I had on my 2gb storage card and its not showing up on the phone. Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.
i would try another sdcard
try the sdcard in a sdcardreader
if both resulted in failure i would say that
they by fixing 1 thing broke another
I think they replaced the motherboard. I dont know if they gave me a defective one.
i am having the same problem...Ive had my storage card for quite a while now and had 1g of memory used up and now all of a sudden none of my music or photos that are on the card are being shown. It still detects my storage card and that the space is used but i cant find the files anywhere.

Removing and re-inserting the card as well as performing a soft reset can make vanished files re-appear. However it depends whether there is corruption on the card.
Does the card work using a card reader on the PC?
If it does and you have tried the above, then I would copy everything from the card to the PC, reformat the card and then put everything back again. If the PC does not see all the files either then you may, if it's worth it, try some software to recover files from the corrupted card. (This os often not 100% successful, but worth a try of there is something vital on there).

I have 3 8525's that are not detecting the 2G memory card when it is inserted. I have to perform a soft-reset in order for the device to recognize it. I now the cards are good because they work in my Axim.
I have 4 2G memory cards doing this which are Kingston & Sandisk. Two of the SanDisk cards are brand new.
Are there any known issues?
I have this problem as well. I'm not sure what the source is.
I cannot even get it to work with a soft reset though.
The card I have is a 1Gb Kingston, and it definitely works because I tested it on my computer.
I guess I'll Just call Cingular when I have a bigger problem at hand.
2gb sandisk card on 8525
I used to have this proem on a brand new card. I would put it in and nothing would happen. But insert in my PC, and it works. What I did was format it to fat32 (from the factory installed FAT) put it in the 8525 and it showed up. Just to test again, tried formatting back to FAT and didn't work again. back to FAT32 and no more probs. Hope it helps for you guys.
Hi,
I recently bought a 4GB SDHC card for my Hermes (Josh's V15 WinterRom Light). Everything seemed to work just fine, but after a couple of hours data on the card started to randomly disappear. File explorer shows empty directories. When I insert the card into PC with Linux I can read the data, but the system reports corruption and all the files are read-only.
I tried lowering TransferBlockSize in the registry but this only delayed the data loss. Is there anything else I can do or is this card faulty?
bump!
bump!
anyone?
Could be the card, especially if you had another sd card and didn't have this problem. I'd do a backup on PC, format sd card FAT32 again an then restore the info. If it still seems to leach the data away then I'd get the sd card replaced with a new sd card.
Cheers...
Also use a can of compressed air to clean out the sd card slot on your Hermes, may help, may not but it will eliminate a suspect that the sd card reader needs to be cleaned.
I did format the card several times with FAT32. It was only a matter of time for data loss to appear.
Hermes worked fine with 1GB SD card. I did not have any problems using the 4GB SDHC in my laptop but then again maybe it wasn't used frequently enough.
So about a week ago I downloaded new version of icecream tosti's ICS rom (v0.6) and booted into CWM to mount my sd card and move the zip file over. I noticed that it was taking longer time to move the file than it usually does but I let the process finish. I unmounted the card and went to install the zip from sd card but couldn't find it. I tried to move the file again and again but couldn't get it to copy the file onto the sd card. I tried moving files from the sd card onto the computer but that was not possible either. It wouldn't show me errors and complete the moving process but it actually didn't move anything. I thought there was something wrong with the sd card so I tried formatting it... no success!
I have used easues partition manager, mini tool partition manager, hp sd card utility, panasoic sd card formatter, tried formatting it through windows native options, used disk management, even tried formatting it through CWM but i kept on getting the same error, can't format. I was placing the micro sd card in a usb card reader and sd card reader in order to format it through computer. I have also tried using different computers but that didn't solve the issue. The problem is that every time I try to install a rom it reverts back to an older revision of the rom with old settings that I set before. It seems to me some how the sd card is locked in a previous state and it is write protected and won't let me format it.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can solve my problem or does this mean the sd card is gone and I have to buy a new one?
I have exactly the same problem after using NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.3-CM9 V1.3. It seems this sd card was frozen, nothing on it can be changed. If I copy a file to it on computer, it shows copy successful, but that file cannot be read, and if refresh it shows nothing have changed in the SD card.
Anyone have any idea about this?
I have three broken micro sd cards now, two from WP7 and this one from ICS.

I waited a couple of weeks for someone to answer on this forum and tried all methods possible to format the sd card or revive it somehow but no luck so just recently purchased a new sandisk class 4 sd card hopefully this one doesn't go bad either. I just wish I knew why it was happening so I don't repeat the process again and end up damaging the card.
Have you tried to format with MAGLDR and after it on windows 7 pc ?
I did that, also followed this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283232
Contents on this sd card just refuse to change.
is there a solution to this coz im having the same problem and cant find a way to fix this
you can do it by this software's :
HDD Low Level Format Tool
MiniTool Partition Wizard
EASEUS Partition Master
Partition Wizard Home Edition
.
.
.
.
but i dont know how create swap and ext4 partitions on sd .
This happen because you formatted the card on the phone. I never recommend to format on the phone the cards but on PC. Try the application I posted on computer with FAT32 in 32768 unit size.
Greetings,
I transferred my Pictures and music from my old SanDisk ultra 64GB micro SD card to my new Samsung Ultra + 128GB card. My first attempt at loading the data was through the restore function on the LG Bridge app from my PC. 3 day later when the restore was finished the phone indicated that the data was corrupted and had to be formatted. The second time I got a "file Corruption" message on my SD card when I was transferring files while both cards were in card readers. The next attempt was with the old card in the card reader, and the new card in the device, with the device connected to my laptop directly by USB, the end result being the Corrupted file message (again). My most recent attempt is by downloading files from my PC to my device card. Now the files are gone when I restart the device. The Music file in my folders are gone but the music outside of the folders are still present. All my pictures on my card are gone as well. ANY help is desperately needed and appreciated!!!
Did anyone have an answer to this? I'm having the same issue with my V30 - the files I copy to the external SD card by any means (AFT, SyncMate, FTP, SyncTunesMac) disappear...
I don't have good news for either of you that sounds like the sd card or the card port are going bad. Is it possible your ad cards are counterfeit as in does this behavior happen with another known good card...
I would try the following
First backup anything you can
Try a known good card that works in other devices and see if the behavior persists if yes
It is an issue with the phone not the card if the behavior stops you both got bum cards be more careful where you buy amazon is not even safe.
If the behavior persists try resetting the phone full factory. If custom Rom reload the rom. If the issue persists past that you most likely have a hardware issue that requires mainboard replacement.
Also try uploading files to the cards using the computer(with the micro sd to sd adapter) and check if the files stay(using the phone)
I had a similar issue with Moto G Turbo with Lollipop. It permanently damaged 2 MicroSD.
I ended doing a factory reset and MicroSD worked correctly again.

By the above description, this is almost certainly a counterfeit sd card.
Google "H2TestW_1.4.zip" to test ANY card you buy before you ever use it.
It's a solid, lightweight program that does its job well.
Anything that says it will do the job better / faster is blowing smoke up your skirt.
I've just got a new Nokia 5 and tried to use a Samsung 32GB SD Card, but it starts to format and then keeps showing as corrupt. I can see the card fine on my PC and can format without any problem, but still the same on the phone. It starts to format, 20%, then it stops there for ages and then asks me to move files over. I select move now and then it goes to show SD corrupt. Is it an issue with the card? I've not tried any other card, but was using the same card in an old motorola without any issues.
I almost had the same problem with nokia 5. sd card successfully configured but after a day it was corrupted. i used two different SD cards (SanDisk Ultra 64GB & Toshiba exceria pro 32GB) but nothing was different. I lost both of them because they don't work in the PC anymore. even I can not format them.
