pictures get errased everytime I reboot!? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I formatted my SD card to Fat32. was having SD card damaged issues a couple weeks ago, but havent since I formatted form PC and then again on phone. The issue I'm having now is everytime i reboot my pictures/files get erased. I can take 10 pictures, reboot...gone. phone boots up and I can take 10 more picts, reboot...GONE!
ANY IDEAS HERE!?????

Do you get the same results with another SD card?

I donhave another micro sd card. is this something that could be ROM related or does this sound like a bad sd card?

Since you have had issues with the card previously, i would lean more to the card being bad.
What ROM are you running?

Bean R2. I ran 3.1 and V5 then V6 and had issues and worse battery life than R2. so I went back to R2.

My guess is it was the SD card. I found my spare 32 class 10 lexar, formatted and haven't had an issue since.

[Q] Damaged SD Card?

So I unmounted it, put it in my PC, took some pictures off, ejected it, put it back in and guess what? Damaged SD card. I reformatted it 2-3 times and nothing. I need my SD for everything on my phone. I am rooted running a custom rom (Android Revolution HD). Please help me, i can't live without my SD
I could use some more information...does the phone not read the card? And your computer does?

Being rooted with a custom ROM doesn't mean you NEED the SD card. It will still be rooted and have the ROM loaded and working. I went through this last night for the 2nd time. You should be able to place SD card into computer, format (FAT32) and then reload it into phone and it should be fine. If this doesn't work try a different card.
I couldnt read it in my phone. And i know i dont NEED it, but all my apps are on it. I restarted, and it worked
I used to have the same problem with one of my sd cards and I found out that it wasn't genuine (hacked card) - yours may not be the case

[Q] Xperia X10 SD Card Damaged

I was using my Xperia X10a and suddenly I got a notification that says SD Card Damaged. It asks me to format it, when I click on it, it says preparing SD card and then brings up the SD Card Damaged notification again. I went out and bought another SD Card but it still gives me the SD Card Damaged notification. So I tried seeing if the SD card works on another phone and it works fine. How can i fix this. My phone is also rooted. My phone is on AT&T.

Xperia X10 SD Card Damaged
I was told that there may be a physical problem with the card receiver.
The trick is to only push the card into the slot a little way using the back of the phone to keep it in place.
I tried that to no avail.
I found out that HTC users, Motorolla users, DroidX, Nexus, and other phones running Android Eclair also give the exact problem especially after rooting; many before.
I bought one of the Samsung Galaxy S phones running Gingerbread and haven't had the problem at all.
I mod'd the X10 to Gingerbread and the problem stopped. Only thing is that my Mod doesn't support high res on the camera. Its a temporary fix I guess.

[Q] Damaged SD Card Help

I have a Samsung Galaxy Showcase I500 i was on stock 2.3.5 and i decided to flash a custom rom so i installed newest miui rom for I500 1.12.9 i think.. So my problem is that if i reboot my phone it seems to make the sd card corrupt. which isnt really a problem because i always keep it on. The first time it happened though my phone rebooted on its own and was kind of glitchy. Since then i have had the sd card damaged problem 2 more times but when i rebooted once and once when i pushed files from my computer to my sd card in usb storage mode. i really like this rom but i cant continue to reformat my sd card every couple of days and reload music download album cover redownload themes etc...its getting old... any help would be greatly appreciated. by the way i have tried reformatting with my computer and my phone so i know that wont fix it.

Reformat
Reformat your SD card by right clicking -> properties -> and format it. See if this helps. Also, try using another SD card to see if it is just your SD card or your phone that is bad. Deduce and solve
i have tried all of this reformatting from my phone from my computer every which way i could. i have used my disk management and nothing works. i decided to keep my 8 gb in there it is working without flaw. but both the 16 gb ones just keep getting corrupted. This is weird because when i tried installing miui with my 16 gb sd card it wouldnt work so after pulling my hair out for two days i found a post where someone said to use an 8 gb card to install it and i did and it worked perfectly. i guess this phone rom doesnt like 16 gb sd cards.

Going to take a guess and say you're on CM? If so I had problems with my 32GB too but on stock roms it works. I had to get a 16GB to use under CM. I'm not sure of the problem but there was my fix

Are you rebooting the phone after putting back the microsd? Sometimes that works.

As matter fact havent tried on Cm, im on MIUI right now. But im giving it one more try with the formatting see what happens if not will go to Eagle Blood see how that goes.
Yeah im since i noticed my sd card wouldnt show up unless would have to reboot. some files have been transfering but like awhile ago i d-loaded the files that needed for the game Modern combat 2 and after finished i rebooted or just quit playing and tried playing again and have to be redowloading the files over and over again since nothing stays on my sd card :/

That sucks, sounds like a bad sdcard. You still got the receipt?
I got my 32gb lexar class 10 with USB SD reader for just under 50 and its been issue free. Never liked Kingston products.

Tried formatting it using the phone itself? Miui is based off cm7 so that could be the issue as well.

Won't let me format it from phone since as soon as I put it in tells me "safely to remove card now" so kinda like automatically ejectects itself when I put it in. N got another problem :/ I bitlocked the sd card in my windows 7 laptop and as I was transferring files my wire was loose and we'll lost the connection and of course gave me files transfer error. But the problem now is that since I bitlocked the sd card won't let me get in it anymore, even though i put my password I put for the sd card. Just says something error with files and blah blah ;/. Can't even format or or anything anymore ;/

Moving from Weapon X to Miui rom my sdcard was detected fine but then after a couple of days of using Miui I wasn't able to open up sdcard when connected to my pc. It shown that usb is detected on my phone.
It only work when I restore back to WeaponX. I tried flashing different Miui roms, EagleBlood and PhoenixBlood. None detect my sdcard on pc except for WeaponX. I also tried to format my sdcard. Didn't work.
Anyone got any suggestion??
Try reinstalling ure usb drivers or not just restart the computer that would help with me. Or have you tried it with a card adapter?

If you've tried it both with the USB cord and with an sd card reader, it might just be a bad sd card. This happened to me with a Samsung 16gb. I couldnt add or delete anything on it. Simply had to get a new sd card. Try out Lexar or PNY if you want a good one.

[Q] Does formatting fix a corrupt sd card?

Last night I turned off my phone to put my sim in another phone, but when I turned it back on my sd card had suddenly become heavily corrupted. About 10 folders on the card had completely disappeared (nothing important thankfully), and there were about 50 random gibberish files on the root of the card.
I did a chkdsk using Windows which found loads of errors, but I noticed that some files I created after that were also disappearing (such as an sms backup). I ran chkdsk again - more errors.
I backed up what I could and transferred them to my laptop, then wiped the phone and completely reformatted the card, including repartitioning the fat32 and sd-ext partitions. I'm running a different rom now and everything seems to be fine.
The question is, does a complete format fix the card, or should I expect it to happen again?
It's a Samsung 16GB class 10 card, bought directly from Amazon, so I'm presuming it's not fake.
It'll work fine unless that virus hits again.
