SD Card Issues - Thunderbolt General

I know this has been posted in other forums, but I put about 1000 songs on my tbolt the other night. All DRM free, and immediately afterwards had the "sd card mounted read only" issue. Now I can't access anything on the SD or save anything to it in camera app due to insufficient permissions. It also doesn't allow me to access the files when USB connected to PC. Any ideas before formatting? Thanks

Low on space (red SD card icon)

Tonight I got a lil red SD card icon... when you pull down to see the message it says:
Database storage is getting low
Now, when I look at websites with lots of pics, its force closes my browser.
Very annoying.
I tried to clean up some stuff bc it recommended cleaning up SMS, but that didn't do anything.
I restarted the phone and now on addition to the stupid congratulations your phone has been updated message, I now have a pop up that says null.
Very annoying. Someone please help!

Do you use any lagfixes?

This happened to me when I was trying out a Froyo Rom. I think I read somewhere that there's a memory leak in the browser. I went back to stock Eclair coz of this reason.
Edit: I was using the Leaked Froyo for Captivate

[?] MicroSd Write protected

Ok I have a mesmerize of a friends and when I try to format the mirco sd card since he has been having problems with it. I get a message saying write protected and cannot format. If I plug the phone in through usb and mount it I have no problem formatting or at least I get the format complete message and then when I look on the phone it shows the same amount of storage being used and when I plug it back in though the adapter it shows all the stuff still on it and I still get the write protected message. Is there anyway to actually format the card so that he can use it again?
If you have a card reader, you can try that... Is voodoo active on the phone? If not, I'd say try a card reader to format it.

HELP, I xboxed my SD card...

I wanted to copy music from my sd card to my xbox, but couldn't find an option to do that. While looking around different settings, I found an option to "make this device xbox compatible" or something like that for my SD card, so I figured, ok, this will probably allow me to copy and stuff, so I did it. Now I can't access my SD Card at all!!! I looked under SD card menu in phone settings and it says "restricted access changed". How can I fix this?
Try to reverse this from your xbox if you can find the option

Format it from your computer if you can. Might be able to save the data that way.
I did that with a USB thumb drive, I've never been able to access it from a PC again, no matter what I did

Same thing happened to me. My USB became a paperweight after that

I fixed it. I mounted it ti my PC through Recovery menu then manually deleted hidden xbox folder that was taking the entire sdcard space.
Regular formatting wasn't doing the trick.
FYI the xbox has an option to revert it back to a normal drive
I tried that option, it didn't fix anything.

Micro SD unformattable?

So the other day I was transferring files between two phones via usb and a windows computer. My micro SD is a SanDisk 32gb. After completion of transferring files from my phone to the other phone, I safely ejected both phones and unplugged the usb cables. On my phone I began browsing through my pictures and within a matter of about 6-8 seconds I literally watched my pictures vanish before my eyes. Leaving only my pictures saved to my phones internal memory and an error message pops up "SD card unexpectedly removed" Odd right? Now the phone won't acknowledge that my micro SD is attached. Took it out and tried using it in a micro SD to full size SD adapter and then plugged into computer. No auto play. And when I select the drive slot for the SD it tells I need to format the disk. Tried quick and regular, both "Windows cannot format the disk" Tried using command prompt to format "Device not recognized...." I can't even format?! What do I do?

how long have you've been using the sd card? lot's of possiblities could happen maybe it's a faulty card - a possible virus infection. have you tried rebooting the pc and insert it again see if it will be detected. or from your device try to reinsert and reboot it.
based on my experience in most cases its a faulty one. i have 3 micro sd which i can't use now.

Recovery Of Missing Files
--------------------------
Your best searching the Internet for a file recovery program. Some may not be able to recover or locate the files that other software will be able to.
The SD Card Issue
------------------
Your best to download partition software, EASUS Partition Home is recommended for this. If you see your SD card simply right click it, and go to delete, and then new and then click 'Apply', and then 'ok'.
If you need any download links hit me up with a pm
hope this helps.
I've had the card for over 2.5 months. And I've added no new data, only transferred data off it(when it crashed) and moved files around. Well it's not my computer. Tried accessing the card on two others besides the one I was originally on. On the computer I last tried, it actually had a built in slot for Micro SD. It says no disk inserted Other Micro SD cards work fine with all computers. I just want to be able to format it so I can use it again but, I'm leaning towards that it might be fried. How it fried itself still doesn't make sense to me

Swapping internal/external sd

So I know about the "11ext..." script that was created a long time ago, and I have been using it since I can remember. My problem is that sometimes my internal and external read the same and to fix it I need to run the script again. For some reason it is not sticking. I use s manager free version to run it. The problem with getting the same numbers on internal and external is that my gallery then reads the card twice and I get two of every album in there. The camera also tells me that I do not have sufficient space when this happens.
Is there another solution to swap the internal and external sd? Or is there some way I can make sure it will stick

I haven't had this problem, just checked my phone and been running this for about a week.
