Hi Guys,
I am totally hassled no end due to endless reboot of my phone due to using an Transcend 32gb class 10 card. I need some inputs to resolve this if anyone can advise of.
Mine is an sys version. 55.28.37.MB865.AsiaRetail.en.03 with 2.3.6 with baseband version 2012-03-28 off.Bld UnRoooted.
The issue is the phone works fine with this card in all respects until in case phone is restarted or powered off & on.
What follows next is the phone starts up normally & then after a while it restarts again & this goes on and on. I have tried all methods, pulling out the battery and waiting & then starting off, starting the phone without the card wherein phone remains stable & normal & then inserting the card & the same issue of restarting happens after a while, putting the phone to sleep & then inserting the card, pulling out the card without unmounting etc etc. Also I have observed by pulling out the card & then putting it back in, storage setting shows the card as total space as 29.23gb but when I click unmount, it shows in progress but then again shows option for unmount but at the same time card apps are not available.
Finally, I cannot recall at which point of time & due to which action the phone accepts the card and functions normally. Is there a fix from Transcend for this 32gb microSDHC class 10 card in terms of formatting the card with their software or would there be a fix from Motorola in the upcoming ICS update?? More importantly, does anybody know any trick of getting the card to be accepted by the phone because as I mentioned once the phone normally accepts it, it works without a hitch.
Thanks.

The Atrix 2 HAS ISSUES WITH CLASS 10 MEMORY CARDS. Class 6 or less works fine. There are plethora of threads on this topic, please search before posting.

It is a known issue. But still there's hope, you can try selecting a higher vsel to see if that helps driving the card. Higher capacity, higher class demands higher voltage. But no guarantee it'll work, rather you may end up charging more often. An app like "SetVsel" may be able to do this, but you'll have to root your phone first.

@.jaz... I am well aware of the 32gb class 10 issues & one of them on which I had posted much earlier was "Known working SD cards" & my quote as below from the earlier thread atop the original post
Quote
Transcend 32gb Class 10 works fine. Moto support chat told me up to 32gb is supported but class 10 is not recommended & class 6 is fine but I believe 32gb class 6 is not available at all & hence I purchased 32gb class 10 and with so many apps, music, 1080p vids & 8megs pics I think 32gb is essential to keep it all together. Just keep backups at all times!
Unquote
As I stated the card works fine endlessly unless if due to battery complete discharge phone is switched off or if user restarts the phone then the issue of booting normally occurs and thereon after a while phone reboots and this is endless. Here my query was I am unable to pinpoint by which action or at what point of time the phone reaccepts the card working normally again & if any user has any helpful inputs worth a shot like what Kousik suggested. Also if anybody knows if Transcend or Motorola have some patches for this as it is already proven the card words fine.

@Kousik.. Thanks but I prefer being unrooted until Motorola releases the official ICS update then I will join the bandwagon. Thanks for the suggestion though.

@ Apex... Nobody is forcing threads upon "You"..if you view & feel, "not again", then you can just skip it.
As I already clarified, I have looked up this issue much before even buying the card directly checking with Moto directly wherein they did confirm 32 gb is compatible but at no point they advised me categorically to desist buying Class 10. The only reason as I once again state since I believe you are taking a view that an old issue is being revisited, is that for almost three months now the card has been functioning fine. I am just trying to get an handle on what particular action or point of time causes the phone to accept the card & function normally. I repeat, as far as phone does not get switched off, this card works without any glitches and then even after the constant rebooting at one point it does reaccept & functions normally. Kousik had one suggestion, could there be any other like, formatting a card from the pc or from the phone itself, not very sure of "NTFS" or "FAT" formats, Transcend has a special format program as well. If any senior members know that if this could be addressed in ICS. It is very generalised view Class 10 - end of story. Let's have some fresh inputs like how I have explained my experience.

What you are failing to see here, is that some of us have now had this phone for over 10 months now and seen it all. I can tell you this is not a new issue at all. Try formatting your card from within the phone itself under setting--> storage. It will function just fine for a period of time, and then at some point it will stop functioning again. This is completely normal behavior. Go buy a class 6 32GB card and you will NOT have this issue. Motorola is a bunch of morons, and I would not trust one thing they tell you.

The SDHC class 10 problem is not limited to the Atrix 2 or motorola. It is a generic problem with google/android and class 10. Unless rooted, hemorrhoid has a nervous breakdown with NFTS, forcing the use of FAT32 or exFat.
Don't want to repeat myself or continually repeat the same post from Patriot but they provided some very useful information acknowledging a problem with hemorrhoid OS and 32GB class 10 cards and suggested a temporary fix of performing a full format on a Windows PC in FAT32 with a 32kb allocation size.
A copy of the Patriot reply can be found on the April 11, 2011 review currently on this page: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...IsFeedbackTab=true&Keywords=(keywords)&Page=6

You sound like an immature child calling Android "hemorrhoid OS".
Please stop doing that, and call it Android as is should be.

Try increasing the sd cache to 3 or 4 mb
Get a scripter from market and schedule this to run on startup you can also use terminal emulator.
echo "3072" > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb
Also sometimes even a brand new momory cards are corrupted so connect it to a pc and perform full format.

At least it is good to see unlike some fellow members who resort to Caps,bold (which is a no brainer -bad etiquette) have a way of putting things across. Moto personnel yes, learnt it the hard way & the whole idea before purchase was to confirm. I never said this was a new issue and fully agree and aware of reams of info on this topic but if you yet see, still many users are yet coming up with suggestions,tips within this thread itself (thank you all Getting a 32gb Class 4 (now here I have never seen a class 6 32GB, would like to see a link for one though) & moving on is simplest solution. But I pumped in good money besides the phone on this card and if there is no other way, then would like to know for info's sake on a technical front what causes this issue. No one yet answered my question if they are aware of if upcoming ICS can resolve this. Anyways, appreciate your thoughts.
Now if I buy a 32gb class 4 card what would be the ideal way I can have a exact replica of my existing card?
1) Would I need to just Copy the whole card as is in to a pc folder the paste the same on to the new card??
2) or is it a better idea to redownload all apps once again? I have back up on the card for all my apps from "Apps2SD" but then I believe it's backs up all version of any single app then how should I go about it restoring apps on to the new card?
3) Before using the card for the first time for optimum performance is it required to format the card from within the phone or from PC using a tool like "Autoformat".exe (also what's the deal on NTFS,FAT formats, which one is better and how to go about it?)
Thanks

What bugged me the most and prompted me to use the caps lock was, a relatively known member posted this thing, and besides, if you asked about the work arounds or technical things, me being a not-so-tech-guy wouldn't have jumped on to this, would have left it to the more senior members. It was plain "why isnt' a class 10 mem card working with A2?" thread.
and hey I too get a lot of stick, and i completely understand, it's just to keep the forums clean.

It was not plain "Class 10 card not working with A2", it was that adding on to it (from the original post itself) known causes,workarounds, additional inputs etc..I am all for keeping the forum clean as well but hey nobody is infallible..I have seen so many posts from most senior members too wherein they humbly submit their inputs to newbies without much offence on simple issues. I am just exasperated now that due to certain view points I am having to write lengthy lines rather than sticking to technical queries & hope this one's the end to it, I'd rather channel my energies for providing any help I can be of.
I would still appreciate inputs from fellow members on app transfer options list I have put forth. Thanks.

Precisely why I posted to this. Point being: its been previously posted, discussed (at length) and known for quite some time that this is a problem with the ATRIX 2. We don't need one or three or twelve threads on the same topic. No one will regard your credibility highly (but rather your lack thereof) if you don't follow forum rules and have respect for keeping it clean and organized. So, again, a class 10 SD card may work for a given time, but you WILL have issues with it sooner or later. There's no "ifs", "ands" or "buts" about it, so come to terms with it. Your questions and/or concerns on this topic could have -and should have- been posted in the other topic-related thread.
The reason behind my "bad etiquette" as you say (passive aggressively, I might add -real mature) was to get it through your head that the class 10's will not work with this phone. This is why other members chimed in with some frustration, because we know it won't work with these phones. Do I know exactly why it doesn't work? No, and quite frankly I don't care. The SD card problems found over class 6 is completely innocuous when knowing the solution: don't buy one! :banghead: If you feel like you just have to determine the reason it won't work, ask in the already existing thread(s). Hell, just Google it or find out on your own the answers, maybe then you'll get some credibility.

I noticed you mention apps 2 sd, you can not install and run apps on the sdcard with this phone, that is the reason you are having this issue, again that has been pointed out all over this forum.
There is a bug in motorolas implementation of android that causes this. So your best bet is to get that 32Gb class 4 card you mentioned and NOT install ANY apps to it. Infact you MUST disable that in settings.
So far with the ICS leaks we have not seen a fix for this. I am sure moto does not care much about fixing the issue because there is 4GB of internal app storage on the A2.
Also, for future reference do a search and post in an already established thread no matter how old it is. The reason you got such a bad reception is due to the fact that this issue gets coverd weekly around here.
Get a card reader for your pc and copy the data ONLY, not the apps. Using a usb cardreader you should be able to get one that will hold 2 cards and just copy from one to the other.

On the youtube video, that was the first thing I watched when I joined XDA so I guess might come in handy for noobs who might have missed that & who are reading this now. In case if you missed it, I have been repeatedly acknowledging the fact that I completely realize this is a much talked about topic but I had some other relative add on's in here on which I was expecting some help and you can see members still have some suggestions to offer as varied as changing cache size to some other options, so uh, some people yet opine of some workarounds. In any case, I moved on asking for tips for setting up a new card so I would think it is pretty evident that I am completely in terms of acceptance of the fact that class 10 has an issue. I also mentioned no one is infallible & I am sure you would have had your days too. I don't think any forum encourages caps,bold except for emphasizing something technical & as such it is better best avoided by the senior-est of members I'd say. When you say, you wanted to "get it through my head", I'd have worded it, "I am trying to explain to you here that.." so I guess it's evident who is getting aggressive here & hey like you say "hell" if i wanted to know the reason why it wont work & as you suggest to go google it..yeah then I wouldn't be here in the first place. I'm not sure why you are still subscribed to this thread still though since you feel it's such a no brainer? Cheers!

Hi I've searched the forum about this but cant really find any definitive answers.
Is it possible to run a 32GB SDHC card on the Uni or not?
Has anybody done this and currently using it and if so is there any drawbacks or restrictions etc?
What driver/Software is needed for it to be recognised is it the normal SDHC prog that comes with some cooked 6.1 roms or is it another?
This is the same card as the one i have ordered is it compatible?
Thnx for any help/Advice you can give
I have heard of 32GB cards running on a Uni. (I've only got 8GB, though)... but now you've ordered it, you'll be able to enlighten us whether it works I'm sure many people would be interested, and this is what xda-devs is all about, all chipping in a bit of info
Will be happy to post results, was just hoping somebody had already tested and had some info already, Searched forums but seems nobody has actually tried it out yet.
Will try it first oob then try the sdhc driver and see what happens.
I can confirm that you can use 32GB SD Card with Uni. I am using one from Silicon Power and you need to select appropriate Card type using 'SD Settings' program after inserting it. The program will ask you to reboot the device and once done, its business as usual.
Almost all 6.1 Roms recognised and I have not experienced any issues in using 16GB Card.
Hope this helps.
This is very usefull info!
Thanks,
Perfect
it would be an excelente notice, I already own one 16 gb running wm 6.1, and let me tell you that i have not room on it.
Pls let us know your comments
Saludos

Are you talking about a 16GB card or a 32Gb card, ??
I received my16Gb card today and spent some time getting stuff on it - movies, music, setup .CABs etc, seems to be performing fine, the only difficulty I experienced is the card not being recognised by my computer in USB mode, not sure why, had no problems accessing it through AS. Therefore it is taking me longer to transfer large files or folders over. Othere than that there seems to be no problems performance-wise. Would be interesting to know how the 32Gb performs.
Waiting for the result .... hope it works great..... please let us know.....
The card has now arrived and it was recognised straight away on setting 2 with the SD-Settings app. Im gunna transfer everything across and install some apps and test everything out etc and post back soon
Can anybody recommend any tests i can do to make sure everything is working normally etc, Im gunna do the benchmark test with pocket mechanic but is there any other progs that can test it?

Try SD Setting type-1.
It is faster than type-2.
Sorry for confusion, I do have it on type-1.
What i meant is that i have it on the second setting which is type-1, type-2 been third setting.
Havent got round to trying any software out on card yet as I'm trying to get my PC to recognise the card it just seems to not accept SDHC cards or 32gb ones anyway.
Ive copied all my data installers/docs etc from old card to PC and im trying to transfer using the "Disk Drive" setting in "USB to PC" but sometimes the uni reboots , will get there eventually.
Do you know of a fix for Vista/Win7 to be able to read 32GB SDHC cards?
ATHiEST said:
The card has now arrived and it was recognised straight away on setting 2 with the SD-Settings app. Im gunna transfer everything across and install some apps and test everything out etc and post back soon
Can anybody recommend any tests i can do to make sure everything is working normally etc, Im gunna do the benchmark test with pocket mechanic but is there any other progs that can test it?

Be careful if you get one from Hong Kong via ebay as mine had a autorun.inf on the card infected with a worm, My AV (ESET NOD32) got rid though.
Im also having alot of problems transferring data to the card, I get so much on then something will go wrong like the phone will reboot or lose connection and then the card inst accessible it just says it needs formatting.
I cant get XP or Win7 to see the card when its in my inbuilt reader, Ive order a cheap card reader that accepts various cards including 32Gb sdhc so hopefully i can get all my data on and properly test it out.
XP and High capacity SD cards
I have a 16G card, have no problems on the Uni it works great but I did have problems on XP on the inbuilt SD reader on my laptop. The following microsoft patch fixed the XP issues.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934428
Tried that but that hotfix is already installed into SP3, so fook knows whats up. Should have my reader by monday anyway.

I was having exactly the same problem last year with a 4gb card. Whatever I copied he was simply digesting without any notice.
I have moto atrix 2 and so do my gf.
Her moto is non rooted and ics upgraded also genuine. (She neva lemme tuch her phone ).
And mine is rooted and runs on jb leak(China).
I found that some times her fone's some apps are some times gone.
Yesterday she was playing farm frengy and in morning when she saw app was gone.
Also when i checked one More app was gone. Dat was all in one toolbox.( if other app were fone i don't know coz she doesn't care and i don't keep track).
Thing is apps are lost from fone. It happened some time when i bought my fone , when it was on gb.
I just download all on one toolbox to my gf's fone. Then i off my cell and from recovery menu i wiped cache and restarted her fone .. and guss what farm frengy appeared.
What was that.
Anyone had same problem

One toolbox? you mean 17 tools app? can't comment on that.
When I was new to XDA & I had posted query regarding 32gb class 10 card, I was lambasted for the fact that it had been covered a zillion times. Basically if it is a class 10 card it has been said since the advent of this device forum that it will cause problems later if not sooner namely in terms of apps mysteriously disappearing etc. I did not have apps missing by themselves ever but my issue was if ever my phone switched off due to battery full drain then it was pure misery wherein the phone would constantly reboot no end & this was when class 10 cards were pretty expensive. Then what I did was formatted the SD card ""on the phone"" & been using the app 'apps2sd' by Sam Lu & it has a functionality wherein it shows apps when installed as a grey 'X' icon for those apps which can be moved to SD but should ideally not be moved & from the very beginning I have always made sure I never move such apps to the SD. Don't ever use apps like 'link2sd' which complicate things on A2 especially. The highlight is for the lambasting that I had got that I have to accept that class 10 card would never work, I have to state till date I am running the very same SD card without any issues whatsoever so.... in any case, follow what I have stated above, may work for you, I use Rom Toolbox Pro but so far I have not tinkered setting to increase catching speed function for SD. Best of luck. Also it had been said that all apps should necessarily be installed to internal phone memory only but I don't do that yet & I'm surviving.
My gfs fone wiz has genuine ics upgraded os.. i haven't touch its software she has 4 gb normal card, i mean no class mentioned but m pretty sure not c10.
What now..??
And thanks for reply sir

In that case, yet format the SD card on the phone by first backing up personal files to a computer then ensure that SD card is not selected as default storage location and then also never install any apps to SD.
I observed you're all across the boards plagued with multiple problems besides this such as extreme battery drain, no network etc etc, so if you're in warranty ask for a replacement, would bode better for you.

the situation with class 10 sdcards depends on your phone, if youre lucky then your phone will support class 10 cards without any issues.. i per se have never tried a class 10 card but my friend with an A2 has and even he doesnt have any problems. I have always used a Class 6, first one a sandisk 16gb one and now using a samsung 32gb. Class 10 cards are expensive than class 6 obviously but class 6 cards are hard to find at the actual price in the market here. i bought mine for a bargain price from a seller on Olx.
As for the apps on sdcard and phone, even i dont install any apps on the sdcard, just games so that even if my phone is connected to the laptop in Mass Storage mode i can still use my apps..

When I putt he SD into my phone (currently running Paranoid KANG droid 2.32) I actually get nothing more than an occasional "SD has been removed" message. However, when I put the card into my old OG droid (running Cyanogenmod 7) i get the "unsupported file system" error. This has happened before, and I just had to wait it out before the SD recovered on its own. It is not doing this now. (yes I am an idiot for still using it despite my 32 gigs of internal storage). I have a feeling it is formatted as RAW due to a formatting issue, but I can't get anything else (pc or other devices) to recognize the card, other than my OG droid. So what I want to know, is if there is a way to force mount the card, or give a PC control over the sdcard path and force mount it some way through the PC (effectively turning my phone into an external card reader, because traditional methods don't work). I need a workaround for this, because there are dozens of pictures of my family, puppies, and friends on it that I don't want to lose.
Back up the card of you can, it sounds like it's dying on you. This phone really s3ms to kill cards, I've already gone through 2 32gig cards.
I had a 32GB Sandisk Ultra MicroSD card, and by chatting with Sandisk support, I am going to exchange my dead card for a working card. BTW, while you can, salvage the data you can, because it starts out like that, before becoming completely unusable.
I've went through two SanDisk. They are easy to work with, just get the ball rolling on the replacement.
Like the others said, get your data backed up as soon as you can.

Had 4 of these cards for a year now and not one hiccup. I'd say whatever is happening to them, its something you are doing to crap them, not the vendors. ALways backup your critical data, but if you treat these cards properly they will work and last as well as any.
No, you CAN use it on someone elses network, just not T-mobile as it doesn't do hdspa+ 1700, 1900... There's even a bounty out for that elsewhere on xda, to enable these bands, I believe it's currently at over $200.
And no, I'm not doing crap to the SD card. I've had it for over two years, used it on a different phone before that, never did anything different and it just died out of the blue. I'm not a noob, I would know if I had done something to it.
You would be pretty pissed off too if all your data was deleted, the phone you spent many many hours working to pay for did not work and when you ask for help someone blames you instead of helping. But I guess it's easier to blame than to help out right?
I get that part. However, don't get mad that it doesn't work fully for the network is wasn't designed for. That was my biggest part. I know there's a bounty. However, its been up for forever and nothing has come of it. I can't stand seeing people gripe about this phone because its not literally magic. Verizon's stuff is locked down, always has been, probably always will. Its a different radio/modem/antenna set than the tmo and at&t versions. It was meant to run on Verizon's network. Period.

Hey guys, would appreciate if someone could give me some help on an issue I'm having with a 32 gig SD card (SanDisk Class 10 bought at Best Buy so it's definitely legit). Anyway it worked great for a long time, however, recently I tried to use the Gremlin Remover on my phone, it crashed and burned in the middle of the process as I've heard can often happen with Gremlin Remover. I did a restart, and after that problems began to appear with my SD card. Almost all the data on it disappeared and it started to constantly mount and dismount from the phone. I thought it might have just been the failed Gremlin Remover run, so I reformatted it in Windows, put Gremlin Remover, black hole system wipe, and my ROM back on and did a complete wipe and restore of the phone, card seemed to be working okay, but then the next day it started dismounting and saying it had been unexpectedly disconnected again. Now I can't get the phone to recognize it at all so I can't connect it to Windows to get it formatted. The strange thing is that my tablet (Asus Transformer TF300) can mount the card and read the data on it. However I can't reformat from the Asus since it won't mount as USB storage in Windows. Is it probable that the card is completely fried? Or does it maybe just need a good reformat? If a reformat would fix it, how would I go about doing it? Is it possible to reformat through terminal commands? Or some other way? Anyway thanks in advance for any help.
I too have a Sandisk class 10 uSD card that just recently failed on me. It started losing files one night, then it stopped mounting. Now it just shows up as a 30-something MB drive that I can't format. I have tried many methods of restoring it to no avail.
Maybe try to format it using external sd card reader? microsd to sd?
I think there's a known issue with these cards. I bought one of these a couple wks ago from a deal posted on slickdeals.
I haven't had any problems with mine but after the purchase I started reading comments in the thread about how these cards are known for mount/dismount trouble and high failure rates. I believe in still under my return period with Amazon so I've been debating exchanging it for a different brand like Samsung. Sorry, I'm at work posting on my phone so I can't post a link.

This has already been tried, without any luck. I tried to format via Disk Utility on Mac OS, numerous drives tools under Windows, and gdisk under Ubuntu, and nothing will revive it. Zed's dead.

I too saw a number of reviews that noted the same type of failure, so I may end up giving another brand (like Samsung, as you suggested) my business. Sandisk does not seem to want to take any responsibility for my uSD card failing after only 8 months of normal use.

Dear Friends,
Just switched from the HTC Mate 9 to the Sapphire Blue unlocked HTC U11 and am encountering the strangest issue. My Sony 64gb SD card, which is read perfectly fine with just about any other device I've tested on including my Mate 9 says SD Card is corrupted when I boot it with my HTC U11. Anyone else has ever seen this issue?
I've had my SD card for years! It's a Sony. Have used it on Note 3, 4, LG G3, G4, V10, V20, Axon 7, Mate 9, S6 Edge+, S7 Edge and many others and it's ALWAYS worked flawlessly... But why is it doing this only on my HTC U11?
Any help would be appreciated!
Die you try to format it with SD formatted an check again. Maybe there really is something that has been corrupted over the years and is popping up now.

We saw that issue on the HTC10 a lot, seems it started there.
Had the issue myself as well as a lof of others I know and there were also a lof of reports about in the htc threads.
Using SD Formatter and format it with the overwrite option worked for me temporaily.
Sometimes for just for weeks, then for a couple of months. No idea what brings the error back, if its a faulty SD, the phone, the combination of sdcard and windows.
...Oh now that I list all those, TWRP could be the issue @nkk71
Maybe @Sneakyghost has some more ideas.

Not sure you saw that one internal beta changelog from HTC, @j to the 4n - early U11 changelog. They "fixed" unmounting issues there.
That was a major clue actually. I was very happy to see that. It tells us it's not remotely related to the sdcards we use. It's entirely up to HTC to get their drivers and software set up properly.
Not much we can do.
Try running a chkdsk on the card using a card reader

Have a friend who had the constant unmounts/mounts on the 10, not sure if/how he eventually fixed it, though he did drop his phone several times over, so couldn't rule out a hardware issue either.
But the corrupted sdcard notification sounds similar to what I sometimes see (including me) in MultiROM, eg:

I think we would need more info to know for sure that HTC was trying to address that issue. But I'm a bit more cautious now with assuming my card was damaged...

My friend has a completely untouched (ie never unlocked/modded/etc) 10, he *all of a sudden* started getting those random unmounted/mounted notifications, nothing was changed (except the few drops a couple of weeks earlier )
He also saw the OTA update that said something like *Fixed sdcard unmount issues*, ... yay yay :laugh: yay :good:
...2 days later: :crying: (yeah still same issue)
Never happened while I was around, so can't really provide any insight, but for sure, one of the OTAs had that comment specifically there, and considering HTC's excellent track record for "descriptive changelogs"
it must have been there for a reason, even if it didn't fix the issue

I'm just trying to differentiate between the "Corrupt sdcard" notification and the "Unmounted/mounted" notifications, sometimes we may think both are the same, but they're not,
The "Corrupt sdcard" could be triggered by any number of reasons, including a corrupt sdcard, or a sdcard marked as dirty (and I don't have the expertise to say why, but let me just say the *driver in charge* considers it corrupt, true or false is another thing)
Unmount/mount would look to me as if the card is really being physically no longer seen by the OS (whether that's a hardware or software fault, I can't say), that could eventually lead to the above.
But still 2 distinct scenarios

Eventually, yes, I couldn't agree more.
Have a card constantly unmounting during a write operation, and eventually you'll loose some files, possibly the whole card, it may even be very faulty card, I've had 2 128GB straight out of the box and just bad, you can try to wipe them, nuke them any which way you like, if block 0 (from my perspective) is hit, say bye bye to it.
As I mentioned, I'm just pointing out 2 different problems (which may eventually become 1), the corrupt sd card vs the constant unmounts.
Neither is good for sure unfortunately, but they are still 2 different issues, imho.
Friends,
Very nice to see you all respond and share your experiences and thoughts. I agree with the one poster, this is the Corrupt SD card issue and not unmounting.
While I appreciate all the advice around formatting my card... I feel unsettled about that proposition, especially since every other phone and computer is reading it fine... What's this about? ?
Really disappointing experience from HTC, I was excited to return to them after the Rezound days... But this is a highly basic and disappointing issue ?...

Hello
I had the same problem, I could solved :
1. Retire the microsdxc from your phone and backup in your pc
2. Re insert the card in the phone, when the phone shows " SD corrupted" allow to format IN THE PHONE
3. Then go to " storage" and do a safe eject
4. Again, transfer the files from your pc to the microsd
5. Power off your phone, place the microsd and them power on
Since these day i don´t have more problems with the micro sdxc card
I hope that works for you
Cheers
I had an odd issue. When I got my U11 I put my not so old SanDisk 64gb card in it with no problem. A few days later I purchased a new card and transfered all my stuff over to it. I wanted to change notification sound but when I went to select the new sound my phone went looking for my old card (id 56xxx) with a message something like can't find blah, blah, blah. My new card ID starts with ID 3xxxxxx. Unmount, format anything I tried didn't work. I finally RUU'd back to stock (I was rooted) and all is well. Strange....

That's normal. Sdcard gets a unique number-letter ID assigned by Android. It is created new for every sdcard and it is created new after each Rom flash or RUU (not: dirty flash). Apps set to look in one card will complain when you change to another. Or clean flash and then restore apps with TiBu for instance.
Guys appreciate the responses. But we all agree that there is no way to fix this issue without either formatting your card which is being read right by every other device or apparently RUU ing to stock?

SD formatter V4 from sd association fixes that for me, until it comes back. No card ever works without that. Tried about 5 totally different cards so far.
