We all know the popular SDCard (MicroSD) issues regarding android...
Yes, I know, this is only my 3rd post... I'm not a noob, I've been reading a lot from XDA since its early beginning... I was a symbian developer during its glory days... I do a lot of android but I am not into developing (yet) for it...
Back to SDCards... I've read a lot of post regarding sdcard problems...
My only concern is that the SDCard automatically mounts itself to read only after some read and write operations... I thought this was normal... But after some research, I found out that it was a sign of corruption... The gradual increase of files in LOST.DIR indicates a serious problem...
To give a more concrete evidence regarding this theory, I started testing with 2 Galaxy SL devices, 2 usb cables and 3 SDCards of different class and capacity... I use 2 Galaxy SL's to identify if my unit has a bad card reader...
These are the test that I've managed to perform:
1. Copy Music Tracks to device via Mass Storage
2. Copy files from Internal SD to External SD via phone
3. Download a large file using the phone and save the file to External SD
4. Delete a large group of files in External SD using phone
The Cards that are use are:
1. SD A (class 2)(4 GB)
2. SD B (class 6)(16 GB)
3. SD C (class 10)(16 GB)
These are the Results:
1. Using Mass Storage to copy Music Tracks to SDCard prove to be successfull (All SD's)
2. Copy files from Internal SD to External... The operation finished but after the operation, the sdcard was mounted as read only (SD B and SD A)
3. Downloading a file to SDCard... There are some instances that the download will fail because the SDCard was mounted as Read Only during the progress of downloading (All SD's)
4. There are some instances that Deletion of file suddenly stops... The reason, the SDCard was mounted Read only...
5. Every Instance of an error, a file is created at LOST.DIR (After the filesystem check at boot)
I check all SDCards to look into its integrity (via CHKDSK /R)... All SDCard diagnostic tools found no problem regarding the Cards... I put the same ROM on the phones (Rooted and Deodexed Stock KPQ) and both phones share the same results above... Recently, this problems persist in all the ROM's that I have tried (CM, MIUI, Stock) And all kernels (UC, Vurrut)... I think finding for a solution for our device first would help us create a solution for others too...
Anyone of you having similar issues...? Your solution and comments is highly appreciated... Many people are having these problems... Making data reliability on the SDCards quite frustating...
Is there a way to "permanently" mount SDCard as RW to prevent it from mounting as Read Only... I really hope that there is a solution to this problem...
Hi, I know it's been a moment but I'll share what I've experienced, my sdcard was supposed to be a 32GB one but in reality it was a 4GB one, you can't see it on windows through, lot of files were appearing in that lost.folder once I exceed 4GB and all my MP3 were getting mixed up, corrupted.
The funny part of this is that all steps trying to verify that sdcard (chkdsk) were showing no problem at all, now I bought a real 32GB from Samsung and it works fine
Your sdcard should be corrupted or just a fake one.
From my side I ain't getting any problem concerning the fact that my sdcard mounts itself as R/O

i dont know i have a class6 16-gig sd card and now i have the phone for a motherboard fix. they said that my 16 gig sd card were one of the culprits of the motherboard and usb storage (internal memory) excommunication of my galaxy sl. they prefer that i should use a 4 gig or lower sd card to lessen chances of this to happen again.
that's very strange... how can a sdcard "destroy" the phones motherboard...?

How shall that work? The only thing I could think of is that a device can not handle SDHC, SDXC cards and thus throws a error like "card corrupted", "no sd card", "card not compatible" but break the motherboard?
P.S. Why don't you insert the banner as to your signature in the user cp? Would prevent others to "quote" it.
The interesting thing is that I never had any problems with my cards, neither with my old 4GB class 4-6 or the new 16GB class 10. Also with the situations you mentioned. But now I know a bit better for what this strange LOST.DIR filder is... For me it's empty all the time.

Would you suggest that the phone is the one with problems..? Or maybe the possibility that both of my cards are bad...
Btw.. Can you change the mount of your sdcard using root explorer (r/w and r/o)..?
After formatting my card, the button to mount the sd to read only is gone, but after some time it returns.. Allowing you to mount the sd to r/w or r/o... I think that contributes to my problem

Sorry but this is a question I can't answer. I'm not a developer, but I don't think that there is some kind of "permanent" mount.
Samsung Galaxy SL SD card issues
I'm having the same problem. At first I thought it was the native music player because the problem would happen a few minutes after I'd pause music. The phone would restart on it's own, wipe the files on the SD card then restart. I downloaded another music player to try to correct the problem. It worked for a few days then it happened again. It wiped all the files on the SD card. This time it seemed to be worse. After a few minutes it restarted again, and this time wiped all the programs that were saved on the SD card, and reformatted the phone completely (including language and account settings). I have installed the latest firmware, and tried using the phone without a SIM card and it still happens. I basically have an unusable phone. Please help. I haven't tried replacing the SD card but I'm having doubts whether it's because of the SD card why the problem is happening. I used to own a Samsung Galaxy S and I used that card on that phone, and it worked fine. If I buy a new SD card, how would I know what kind to get and are there any other fixes to this issue? Please help!

Ok, i dont know if this has been posted before but this is my BIG problem. When ever I plug in a 16gb sandisk memory card to my galaxy note 10.1 n8000 it works seamlessly without any problems it shows how much space i have and other options like unmount and the like.
BUT, when I plug in my 64gb sandisk microsdXC it doesn't even mount and the only option i see is mount sd card and when i press on that it shows that sd card can be removed.
I want to know why it is like this. I want to use my 64gb on this and I have already got a replacement for the memory card and i also tried reformatting the cards with exFAT and Fat32. I am at a loss and I don't know where I can find the info to get this fixed. I am begging for anybody to help me with the steps to get this fixed
This is how it looks with the 16gb memory card

This is kinda strange, because i had the same problem with the same card, but found out of the box its exFAT, reformatted to FAT32, now works flawlessly...depending on firmware (i'm on 4.0.4 XXALI3, no exFAT support) even exFAT is said to work finally, don't remember which one actually. Thanx you SAMSUNG, finally acknowledged those cards come with exFAT out of the box...i would try to reformat and make sure it's really FAT32, as not all windows machines seem to produce FAT32 out of the box (I'm on MAC). hope this helps...
my baseband version is N8000UBLG5 4.0.4
I have tried to reformat on my windows 7 alienware laptop. It is really weird. I was worried because I thought that it might be a hardware problem but when i used the 16gb memory card it worked flawlessly. I only used the format option that comes with windows. Could this be a problem with the software? I just hope that this is not a problem with the hardware. I hope someone could shed some light on this for me.
You can't format a 64gb sd card fat32 using window natively, you need another program such as Easius partition manager to do it. This might be your problem....

where do i download this?
Still doesn't work
Ok, I tried using the formating program and still same thing. It wasn't able to fix it. The only option that shows in the storage part is "mount sd card". And still when I click on that, it shows a notification that says that sd card is safe to remove. Im really at a loss here. I guess that because I can use the 16gb memory card, its probably not a hardware problem right? I have the n8000 3g+ wifi model. I don't know what region it is but I bought it at amazon.com
Is the sd card recognised in windows? Can you open up and copy files to/from it?
If you have another phone you could try to format it in that BUT be careful as it can screw them up...

yes It is recognized in windows and yes I can copy files on it. I actually tried it on my galaxy s3 phone and it was recognized. That is why im really wondering why this won't work on the n8000...I am hoping to find someone who could fix it, I would gladly pay for the fix if it would be repaired.

you could try to format in the S3...mine isn't' available right now,so I can't try myself...not sure if S3 does exFAT though....
If you have access to a Digital Camera and a Micro SD to SD Adapter you could insert the micro sd card in the adapter and then insert both into a Digital Camera and reformat using the cameras format instructions.
Worked for me in the past.
[Q] TIBU - "Batch backup interrupted: insufficient free storage space" - Any Ideas?
Have a problem with TIBU Pro on my Samsung SGH i-727 (S2-Skryocket). If you find a fix, let me know. I can back up some apps and then finish off others manually but I can't seem to complete a full batch system & apps backup in TIBU Pro now without a ""batch backup interrupted: Insufficient free storage space" error. And I have 40GB+ free on a 64 GB card I just added. (Formatted to FAT32 with GPARTED on my Ubuntu 13.04 box.) I'm going to try and see if a new SD card will work. Will report on that a bit later but I was using this same card for batch backups with TIBU for a few weeks before the error appeared so I'm not suspecting the card right now.
Running CM10.1 nightlies with TWRP 2.6. Full root and updated to latest nightly version yesterday. Wiped System Cache and Dalvik cache. Fixed Permissions. Still get "insufficient free storage space error". Seems to be a problem that few have figured out. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling TIBU Pro. No dice. TIBU does seem to work though manually. Weird... Sent message to TIBU Pro support. Great program... Not so great at support. Their e-mail support is rarely answered and they don't even have a user forum on their website.
HW: SGH-I727, TWRP 2.6, CM10.1 - 07/27/2013 CM 10.1 Nightly, TIBU 6.0.5.1, 64GB Patriot SD - Class 10 card (FAT32)
Think I found my problem - SD Card Problem
Per recommendation on IRC, tried a spare external SD card.
And - Drum Roll.... Success!!! I guess good news and bad news.
Kind of a bummer though. Seems like my relatively new SD card I bought for $59 at Fry's is hosed somehow - at least for the SGH-I727.
Card that worked on TIBU backup is an older Class 10 32GB PNY. Full batch backup took a while (normal) but completed in TIBU Pro without error.
Newer card is a 64gb Patriot Class 10.
Both are formatted with FAT32. Backing up the 64GB to hard disk right now. No error on the PC so I think the card is probably OK but somehow not quite right for the SGH-I727.
Going to try and format it in another system using GPARTED. (I have read numerous posts about not formatting 64GB in Windows 7 / 8). I presume I am going to find this is just a bad card for this particular SGH-I727 hardware.
I know FAT32 is probably the best idea for universal compatibility and if I don't intend to use large files on the drive.
Anyone with a good recommendation on compatible or best brand of 64gb MicroSD card they are successfully using with their SGH-I727 I would be interested in hearing their feedback.

No. I'm pretty sure it's got to be related to the card now as the 32GB card works fine for backups with TIBU. Kind of confused why the 64GB card was working before and just up and quit. But at least I think I figured it out.
Also seems that the recommendation is for 32K sector size on the SD Card. So I'm going to reformat that card with GPARTED in Ubuntu 13.04. The default was 512 byte sector size in GPARTED. So I guess I need to do 32K sectors and try that with this card according to the comments I see in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2041679
I guess the small sector size could be a problem with my device.

64GB SD Card Seems the Culprit
Couldn't find 32K sector size in GPARTED so used Mini-Tool Partition Wizard (Free Home Edition).
Formatted fine and copied all my files fine back from my PC to the Micro-SD card.
But I still get the "insufficient storage space" available error on the 64GB versus the 32 GB card when doing TIBU Pro backups. So 64GB card is problematic but the 32 GB card is fine on the same ROM. (Running CM 10.1 Nightly - last updated 7/27/2013).
Everything else seems to run fine though. Can run video, music, books, no problem off the card.
Thinking I'll just go back to the 32 GB card and get rid of the bloat. Or maybe just use the 32GB card for backups. Again, the 64gb card appears to be functioning in every other context other than TIBU backups on the SGH-i727.
This 64GB card is quite a bit of hassle on the Skyrocket IMHO. Guess I'll save this for the S4 when I can upgrade later this year.
Any other ideas? Anybody think I should try Ext2, Ext3, Ext4 on this SD card? I have enough linux desktops and servers laying around that this drive format / file system wouldn't be a big problem for me. Plus, I presume the SD card would still mount in Windows as a media device that could be read and written to if I use the USB cable. But I don't want to go down that road if it is just a waste of time.
Anybody with some experience getting a 64gb SD card to work on the SGH-I727? Should I get a different brand MicroSD Card or something? (Using Class 10 Patriot 64GB SD card that seems fine on the PC but is a problem doing backups with TIBU.)

My next try will be backing up with TIBU Pro to the internal SD card memory. I have 9GB or so available on the internal SDCard space it looks like.
I haven't found anything wrong with the 64GB card on the SGH-I727 other than the fact that the TIBU Pro batch backup to the card dies with the "insufficient storage" message even though it obviously has way more than sufficient space.
Hufft... this problem very annoying. Do you wan't know what is my problem?
My problem is on my sd card. I don't know why i can't delete some files moreover create a files!! (like taking a pictures, create save game, etc). It's very f**king annoying my friend! I have tried to (re)format my sd card on different PC and phone with different software, the problem is not i can't format it but the contents of my sd card still there!! (after (re)format it), but, i was still able to accessing my sd card via PC or my XL. Some people said my sd card is faulty but i didn't sure about it. Now, i don't know what i must doing now with my sd card.
Now, my question is :
- What i must doing now? Bring my sd card to Service Center (i wouldn't to do this because i haven't a much money)? or what?
- Have someone experience this problem before? What are you doing to fix your sd card?
- If you think i can fix it alone, can you give me a tutorial to fixing it?
Here's some information about my sd card
- Used 11,4 GB with available 3,70 GB (used 67%) (after that, my sd card facing this problem)
- My class sd card is class 6 with total of storage 16 GB (15.12 GB)
- My sd card brand is V-Gen
I hope someone can help me.. PLEASE!!! :crying:

If you have put this in a full sized SD card adapter, and that adapter has the "lock" switch put down, it will also cause this.

Hmm...
Let me get this straight. you're using V-Gen SD Card and you're unable to format this card.
What is it saying? SD Card is write-protected!
It's unlock on the side of SD card but still you getting write-protected.
you've tried formatting the card in all possible file systems but still didn't work right.
1-Have you tried formatting the card in storage? Yes? Skip-2(Setting>Storage>Erase SD Card)

2-This time don't use adapter.
try formatting on your computer through a card reader.
see if that works?
3- Bring your sd card to Service Center. :| i know you wouldn't go. |:
wait may be someone help you out.

Hufft... this problem very annoying. Do you wan't know what is my problem?
My problem is on my sd card. I don't know why i can't delete some files moreover create a files!! (like taking a pictures, create save game, etc). It's very f**king annoying my friend! I have tried to (re)format my sd card on different PC and phone with different software, the problem is not i can't format it but the contents of my sd card still there!! (after (re)format it), but, i was still able to accessing my sd card via PC or my XL. Some people said my sd card is faulty but i didn't sure about it. Now, i don't know what i must doing now with my sd card.
Now, my question is :
- What i must doing now? Bring my sd card to Service Center (i wouldn't to do this because i haven't a much money)? or what?
- Have someone experience this problem before? What are you doing to fix your sd card?
- If you think i can fix it alone, can you give me a tutorial to fixing it?
Here's some information about my sd card
- Used 11,4 GB with available 3,70 GB (used 67%) (after that, my sd card facing this problem)
- My class sd card is class 6 with total of storage 16 GB (15.12 GB)
- My sd card brand is V-Gen
I hope someone can help me.. PLEASE!!! :crying:
P.S : Sorry for my bad English and dirty word because its very annoying

Nope! not an issue of V-gen Brand, I heard overheating from an overclocked cpu could cause damage as well.
I don't know exactly.

Hello,
if i try to copy to SD card it writes me error, what do i do? (if i try to extract .rar file it says full storage card-there is 25 gb left...) any idea please?
You'll need to do a search for NextApp SDFix and run on the tablet.
Kitkat and Lollipop blocks applications from writing to the external sd card and the application above will allow you app to write to the external sd card.
Don't forget to reboot after running the app

Will i need root to run the app?
You can definitely get apps to write to the SD card without rooting and voiding your warranty.
1. Get an app compatible with SD card writing in Lollipop. There are very few, but I believe even ES File Explorer allows it these days.
2. Authenticate the root folder of the SD card via the Google Storage Access Framework. Often the file manager will give you a short tutorial, but the gist is that you'll be launched into a bizarre window where you must click an overflow menu, click Show SD Cards, slide a hidden left menu out, tap on the SD card, and then select folder. This then gives the app full write access to your card.
3. Have luck on your side. Often you will need to reformat the card as Ntfs or just get super lucky.
Remember to thank Google when you're done, and it's not a bug, it's a feature.

Are you able to get into the Storage Access Framework at all? That's the crucial first step for any app you want to use with the SD card.
If you got there but the SD card isn't listed, then it might need to be reformatted.

This is exactly how you're supposed to access the Storage Access Framework. Is your SD card empty? If it is empty, please format it (using your tablet or a computer). That might solve your problem.
(If it is not empty, back up all the files somewhere, and format it anyway... hopefully this will help.)
If not, well, this is an error I have never seen before.

It's a problem I've never experienced, that is for sure. Maybe if you ask NVIDIA to return it, they will have a better solution.
Can you take a screenshot of when the error occurs? Is there a Report button there? I'm grasping at straws here.

"Unfortunately, documents has stopped"!? That's amazing.
Can you try this with a different SD card or a different app? If I knew offhand which app Documents came from, I would also recommend finding it in All Apps and clearing its data and cache.

So a while back I flashed Cyanogen on my Motorola G 2015 just to test and see what's up. Today I went back to stock rom, rooted and modified the heck out of it. I followed the popular XDA fastboot flashing method POST and got the "official" stock rom from this thread (It said modified in the bootloader after I flashed it 100% correctly, BEFORE I started to root and mod it myself, weird huh?) So back to the problem. My partitions are completely messed up now. It's not what it was before (I think). The Internal Storage is mounted on two separate points and my SD card gets mounted as something wierd. Here are all the screenshots you need. Please tell me how to make it normal again.
Somehow here it looks like everything is fine.

YET if I format it as adoptable storage, ie. as internal sd card I can't even find it, nor can any app detect it. (But I can actually use it to put apps in it via the storage options)
First lets see the vold.fstab file
I've never seen something liket this.
my /mnt/ folder
I found my SD card partition in /mnt/media_rw with a weird number FC36-1DFE.
Here is my SDCARD1
500mb, nice partition. Much wow
up until now this is all in INTERNAL STORAGE the only EXTERNAL ( MY 32gb sandisk microsd) with the weird number FC36-1DFE is the next screenshot
When I moved these screenshots to my SD card from my internal, my pc doesn't even see them. and if I try to move from internal to sd via PC, it just doesn't work (SOME TIMES).
???????????????
Finally the illusive internal storage !
but this is where the fun part actually begins
Here is the same damn internal storage in a different directory
Storage folder
I might be over exaggerating, cause I'm new at this. But I have major problems with my sd card and internal one, some things don't work right, and all this that I saw and screenshot looks dodgy as hell and not quite right. Or maybe everything is fine and I'm a retard? You guys be the judge, please help or explain what the hell is going on. :crying:
If this is normal please say so in a reply, if not, guys please help. Bump.
It sounds normal, maybe it's just how the root browser is picking it up. Back when I had formatted my SD Card as internal storage, it also had the weird name of yours, like FC36-1DFE, but only different. I'm sure it works just fine, but a way you could test is to install an app and then unmount the SD Card, and check if the app is inaccessible anymore.

Same here. But apps(even root apps like Titanium Backup) are unable to write to the SD card. When I use TB to try to back up to the SD Card, it says directory is not writable.

There is an easy fix for that, make Titanium Backup folder on your SD card, go to the app then menu, then preferences then backup folder location, select storage provider, document provider storage, now if you have the stock explorer as default select the 3 dots on the upper right and select show SD card then select the 3 lines on top left, select your SD card then press select on your bottom right side, now select the Titanium Backup folder u made and restart the app.

Try to go to root explorer, find your SD card mine is storage/bunch of numbers... long press your SD card folder in /storage and press 3 dots on upper right then press permissions, press octal and then insert 771 then press OK and try again with what I wrote I last post.

My SD card is not formatted as internal and it shows with those numbers.. The problem is that when I do format it as internal storage it disappears for apps instead of being the only one showed like before, since in MM when you format your SD card as internal the internal storage disappears and not the other way around :/
