[Q] unable to remount SD card? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, recently I have been using my player pro apk and I will be listening to music and my audio will cut out, I will look at my notification bar and it shows that my dock is still conneccted yet my 32Gb sd card is no mounted, the only way I have found to get the tablet to recognize that it is mounted and be able to listen to music from both my MicrSD and my SD is to do a reboot, not sure why this is but help would be appreciated as this is starting to p**s me off
EDIT: I think it is kernel problems, I have switched kernels quite a bit in the lastt few days and that SEEM to have fixed it though.\

I wonder what ROM and kernel you are using and what recovery you have?

[Q] Unrooted and reflashed multiple times. At a loss....

I restored to stock using
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112555
then rooted it using super one click and then backing up my recovery file and using 3e recovery file...then downloaded rom manager and used that to install bionix rom but same issues I have had since getting my infuse...I will download apps and in the middle of them installing, my phone will reboot and delete random apps...I've unrooted and tried a couple times...so do I just have a bum device? I've moved the apps to phone memory also. They delete also when simply just rebooting my device. It seems over time that it becomes the same apps that delete while others will stay.
I have tried searching but couldn't come up with much. I am going to attempt to unroot and then try it all over again.
EDIT: Finished and it is still removing apps with every reboot...guess the phones going back.
....move problem apps to phone instead of sd.
Is it doing the samething under stock ? And have u tried installing from .apk instead of market?

I move them all right away to the phone memory and when I first got the phone I noticed it was doing it when it was stock also. I read somewhere about a certain number of phones having a problem with the LCD at the very bottom where it looked like txt rolling under old warped glass? It's not noticeable unless your looking for it...but if there was a bad batch of phones maybe this is related?

Here is a suggestion.
Put your phone into mass storage mode and copy/backup everything on your external sd card to your computer.
Unplug usb go to settings>applications>development and disable USB debugging, then plug in USB cable from computer, and select mass storage mode.
Then open "computer or my computer" on your pc and find your external sd card drive icon.
Right click mouse on the icon and select "format"
(be 100% sure that the drive you are formatting is your external sdcard)
After you are sure of that, uncheck the box which says "quick format" leave all other options alone and start the format, when its done formatting
copy all the files you backed up to your external sd card and I am almost certain that after doing this you will have no problems with your external sdcard.
Good luck!

OK so by my name you can see where I came from. I started with the atrix and it sucked , very unhappy with that phone. Went back into my iPhone 4. Then tried the HTC inspire, crashed non stop , very dissapointing. Nothing seemed to measure up and facetime was something I missed big time. Back to my iPhone those phones lasted 4 weeks combined. I have been in this phone for 3 weeks and while I look for.things I was use too some, its overall a better phone for me than iPhone. Like the SMS apps, customization better, the screen being bigger is a huge one. The 8 MPH camera is awesome. Used a pic I took for my website and it looks great. Multiple launchers to give you the feel you want. I get some force closes , but my ios did too. I was jailbroken so I could use my phone to the fullest.
The speed of this phone is great and I am sold on android after this. That's just my thoughts I would say u have a bad unit and give it another shot. I will get the galaxy s2 when it arrives. If the iPhone 5 isnt 4.2" I wont even sniff it, unless there is chocolate on it.

Good to know. I hope my replacement infuse works the way it should. I will be exchanging it in about 6 hours.

Probably a known issue

On all of the jellybean ROMs I've tried the music app seems to lag at times when my screen is off. Not sure why it happens just wondering if their is a fix. Also its seems that in order to play music I have to quit out of the music app and restart it for it to play, and that's not with the stock music player app that's for all of them on the play store such as pro amp, player pro and a few others.
Thanks guys.

no issues here, where is the music located, ext or int sdcard, if ext maybe an issue with the card, either way maybe time to format either or both sdcards, back them up first

You could be right I have all my music stored on external, im going to try installing music app to sd card and maybe it wont be laggy, if not that then ill try putting music on internal, then ill try formatting just want to make sure I do everything first before formatting.

I think you have a really low class speed external SD, maybe class 2-3, that's why its laggy. I have a class four though and have never had a problem

hmm that's rather strange then. maybe jellybean is just optimized for higher read/write speeds?
class 4 and higher 16gb are cheap, I've seen them for 5-10 US, or u could just go the route u already know of, internal

new mem wont hurt but that maybe not the problem
first try "stock" music player and save the music files to your internal sdcard, if it lags then ext sdcard not the prob, further troubleshooting required, btw dont have cable plugged in as it might be the media scanner running in the background which might effect performance, it seems as if something might be running to get the lag u r getting

I've had a 16gb and a 32gb sd card go bad on this phone. I've ran 10+ roms, I don't think it's a rom issue. You can try formatting it in your comp if you can, just back it up. I formatted mine probably 20 times and it didn't fix the issue. If they are SanDisk, call the warranty department, explain your issue and they should send you a new one, they did that with mine. Good luck, it's an annoying issue and I can't seem to figure the cause.
I know for my new one, roms on internal only, music on external. And I will keep a usb thumb drive plugged in so i will have an option to eject.
Ok, I'll try to contact Sandisk for warranty. In the mean time I might head to Walmart an try another one to see if resolves issue...

Problem with usb memory

I install the usb connector and insert a usb memory and copy some files, everything works fine. Until the next time I want to do it. Then the connector is recognized but the usb memory is not. Inserting it revokes no response from the system. I'm forced to reboot in order to see the memory stick again. I always tap the memory stick reminder in the notification bar before removing it. Does anyone else encounter the same problem?

I don't generally have an issue but I'm not rooted.
Is it formatted as fat32 or exfat?
There was an app in a post just like this one that someone recommended to help with this issue.
Issue noted in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033084&highlight=usb+memory
.
I'm not rooted, stock all the way. I'll have to check the USB stuck since I'm not sure what the formatting is, but I believe I formatted it on my Win 7 laptop and that may default to exfat.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using Tapatalk HD
Nope, a lot actually default to NTFS...
Did you just rip it out of the note or stop the usb drive from inside settings>storage usb drive>unmount? This may make a difference...
I unmounted it, but from the notification bar, the system responded by saying that the stick was safely removed. Could it be the OTG adapter? I use the one I got with my GT-P3113 but they are both Samsung tablets and it is recognized when inserted.
Should mention that I use the usbstock in my Transformer without any problems so I doubt that it is the formatting.

OTG host cable support for input devices on Jelly Bean is spotty. As was noted in the Google Code forums in January, Google has now modified it's Nexus specs page to drop references to OTG, BT support now is the only method mentioned for attaching devices. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=41206

through the pc and through settings on the phone.
iv googled this alot and found no way to fix this. there must be a way.
Seems simple to troubleshoot here. Simply plug device into computer, copy a handful of songs or ones you know that have issues to the phone's hard drive, unplug device from computer, take sd card out of device, now try playing the songs off the device's hard drive. If they play just fine, well then obviously the sd card is the issue. This is the first step i would take at least to figure this out.
Also try using the internal storage and see if they will play from there.
