Okay, so my phone has done this a couple times now, and I don't know why its doing it, or how to avoid it. I've inserted a new memory card and it works fine. Then, after I take the card out once, the phone won't recognize it anymore, and I can't reformat it to make it work...then out of the blue, it will work again for a week or so... its getting annoying... any thoughts?

Has this happened to anyone else? I have few pictures on my sdcard that used to show up in thumbnail views where i can select them, now some of them are greyed out with an esclamation mark. Does this mean its time for a new sdcard? By the way does a faster sdcar mean faster phone performance? Because i have a 2gb kingston, im thinking of going up to 4gb class 4 PNY brand. Suggestions devs?
i had this happen, IIRC, i had to hard reset........
but before u do that..........
try putting the pics and anything else you want to save on the computer so u dont loose them. then reformat your card. soft reset your phone, then transfer everything back.
that should work, but if it doesnt , hard reset would probably be the next step
Ok thanks man, ill try that. I have noticed that some of the photos when i pull them off the sdcard, they are corrupt also. Do you think a better sd card would help?
I had this happen to me as well. It would be fine for awhile, then do that and when I went into ca,era app it would say no sd card inserted. I'd restart and it would be fine and pics would show for about 10min then it would do it again. I plugged my phone into the computer and and mounted it. Then a screen popped up and said some of the files on the disk were corrupt and if I would like to try to repair so I said yes. It fixed it and it really hasn't happened since (maybe once, but restarted and been fine since). I'm running an 8gb card with root.
I just got my Inspire in the mail today and have been using it for about 5 hours. The phone has "lost" the sd card twice since then. I'll be using it and all of the sudden an error message will appear saying "can not read sd card, please dismount before ejecting" I then have to take the bottom part off and eject the card and put it back in and let the phone find it again. Anyone else run into this?
Yes, I've had this happen to me a few times already.
Me too... for the record, Im using a sandisk 16gb
Mine was doing this too. I took it back and swapped it and haven't had a problem since
No problem here with my 32GB.
My TF doesn't recognize microsd cards that are inserted when it is powered on, even if the previous card was correctly unmounted first. I have to restart the TF, then it will recognize the card.
I have the latest FW from the Asus site.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Anyone? I'm starting to wonder if my TF is defective.
I do not have this issue. I swapped a couple of microSD cards and it would read both, detect when one is inserted and taken out.
Have you tried updating the firmware to see if that resolves the issue?
It's not defective. It's Asus' workaround so that we even have a working microsd slot, until honeycomb gets the official update. So for now you will have to restart each time to get it recognised, if you have this problem. It probably depends on the type of card you have too.
I've had it not recognize my microsd card a couple times. Though all I had to do was wait a few seconds before popping it back in and it read it fine after the 2nd or 3rd try.
It make take reformatting the card. I had this issue until I reformatted the card.

Seen the same.
I've seen this behavior on my TF also. Sometimes I just wait a little bit before i try to put it back in. I've also noticed that if i took the card out and then proceeded to transfer huge amounts of files, when i put it back in the card will mount properly. I suspect this has something to do with the tablet going completely in to sleep and resetting the card state hence becoming responsive to card insertion after a an extended amount of time.

Hello all!
I have a 4GB Micro SD card, that came with my mother's old phone and worked fine. I found it and put it in my phone, but after a few days it appears to android as "DAMAGED" all of a sudden. My phone is HTC Desire Z. It happened after I formatted it to delete a load of pictures my brother had taken after he went on my phone (hes young lol!) When I use something like USB Mass Storage, it will happen then, after reboots it happens, all different times. I have checked it in Windows, I have done slow formats on it, (I have yet to try formatting it under my linux system, hoping this will do the trick) I have done everything. Please help me as I dont want to have to buy a new one just yet!
Thanks, Will.
So, my mom's phone started acting up yesterday.. and a few months before...
Long Story:
A few months back, I noticed that my old s3(my mom took it, she liked it a lot) didn't recognize the SD card. I didn't think much of it(it was long out of warranty both ways). It didn't matter much either since I had everything backed up and my mom had only 3-4 apps. Lately, she was saying that it ran slow, and today, she said the phone would restart. I did not see it until 3 hours later. The warning said the SIM card was undetected and it rebooted. I took the battery, SD, and SIM out. I tested the SIM in my s4(which reads a 16 gig SD fine) and it didn't see anything. I assume that either A) it died or B) the phone somehow killed it. I cleaned all of the ports with some compressed air and put everything back in. Now, I cleared the cache and did a odin back to NE1 as well. So far, no issues, but I'm still worried. What is causing this?
TL;DR: Phone does not like the SIM and SD card all of a sudden.
