Hello,
lately i have been experiencing one strange problem.
I have an 32 gb card about half year or more and it doesn´t gave any problem, the rom is OptimusRS XPERIA Rom V6 and i had no problem until one week ago.
Problem:
When i mount the sd card the phone starts Scanning media files in SD card ant i stops around 10%,or 35% and stays on the notification bar all time.
Consequenses: i can´t open camera, memo, music, etc aplications, it gives me "Try after scanning media files" message.
Questions:
How can i fix this? or how can i disable media scan for sd card?
Thanks
Hello
try rename "fsck_msdos" from system/bin and reboot (Backup before)
Take it out of the phone and plug it into a pc with an adapter and see if the card is still good. Sometimes they go bad, just like hard drives fail. Or it might need reformatting. And try another card in the phone to know if it's the card or the phone.
sorry ignore this

Dear all,
I notice the following problems with "Bluetooth Settings screen". When I click on the bluetooth icon on the extreme right hand corner it would take from 5 to 20 seconds for the setting screen to come up. This will only happen if I have an SD card (Apacer 256MB) inserted in the SD slot. I have SanDisk SD Wifi card, even with this inserted it would take between 5 to 10 second to bring up the bluetooth setting screen. This happens for both the initial firmware as well as the latest firmware from official XDA II site. FYI, without any SD device inserted the bluetooth setting can be activated instantaneously. This problem can be replicated time and again so it is not something that is caused by any program installed (tested all that even after cold reset). Does anyone know of a solution to the problem? Thanks.

Its likely that something on the card is slowing your XDA down..
What apps are installed onto the card ? if you have an app thats constantly being run from the card it will slow the system down, maybe not as much as you say but it does have a noticable effect with large apps.
My Bluetooth options pretty much come up instantly unless i have a few programs running, in which case it sometimes takes a couple of seconds or more..
Maybe your SD card is faulty. If so, your XDA might be constantly trying to read something from the card and keep hitting an error which isnt made known to the user. What id try is to backup the SD card, reformat it and then see if it happens again. :wink:
Hi,
I have no application running from the SD card. All of them are datafiles, mostly pictures, wmv and microsoft reader files. BTW, how do I format the SD card?. Thanks.

I dont think theres an option to do it within the XDA2.
You'd need a card reader or someone who owns one which can reformat the card. If you dont want to by one or know anyone with one, go to your local PC shop, they might do it for you. :wink:
I'm having exactly the same problem.... accept for it only happens when turning on the XDAII - if I do remove the SD card then the problem does go away!!!
Is anyone else having this same problem with the BT Settings ??
You can format your SD card with a ppc application called XDA-storagetools (do a google search)
I suspect it takes longer for the BT radio to start when you have a card inserted may be because the BT software is looking for a BT device in th SD slot??
I have the same problem too...If i want to reformat my SD card through card reader, do i just simply format it in the like of formatting, for example, drive c: ? I mean, just 'right click' on the SD card and choose 'format' ? Or do i need to use a specific software ? Thanx...
You cannot format a SD card from a card reader - windaz don't do it.
You need special software, try a google search for xda storage tools
Ok...thanx a lot. By the way, how do we know that a slower BT settings is affected by SD card ? Just my curiosity :}
I don't believe formating the sd card will make any difference.... just having the sd card inserted into the XDAII is enough to cause the problem.
Could it have something to do with when the XDAII is turned on, it has to read/regonsie the sd card first... and the BT settings has to wait for this to happen??
Okay, so it was a emergency and I had to remove my Micro SD card, so I couldn't unmount it.. Later that I day I was about to play some music when I realized all my songs where gone! .... The same with my pictures that were on the card! (ALL MY NYC PICS FROM MY TRIP I JUST WENT ON ARE ON THERE).... Did removing it from the phone actually make the date unusable or was it when I accidentally hit format SD card but, as soon as I hit it, I hit stop!!! This is crazy, for this had all my NYC pictures on it :/
On a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, that is not reading sim cards, but the sim works in other phones. Could it be that I left it in Airplane mode so long? I am not rooted, or anything like that. Any fixes?

Does the PC reconize the card? If it does but doesnt open you might have chance recovering your data from it, if it shows up as empty your chances are pretty weak (tho with some software you still may be able to get your files back, i have even got my files back after formatting my hdd and renstalling OS). if it shows up as empty, do not copy new content on there
If you go to Transcend website they have a recovery program called recover rx. You can recover lost files with this. I had also once faced a similar problem where all my photos got wiped out by trying to download using a cheap sd card adapter. I used this software to recover all my photos.
try to explore the sd from the pc,mabye it's simple a bug
I have LG P990, which install ICS4.0.4, when i insert new SD card, i dont have mount or format option for new SD card, is that normal, i did download bind application for Music and Movie application to find my song and video. i need bind it every time, what can i do to mount new extra SD card to internal SD card?
This software is really simple free and I have found really good. Recuva.
Install on a PC and connect card select drive on recuva, and start it.
Very simple
If the problem is just deleted data or formatted drive

Hi everyone.
I came here to ask if anyone has ever had the same problem and even better, managed to resolve it.
Everytime I put an SD card in my phone, the phone kind of stops recognizing it after a while (mostly after 15 minutes).
When I reboot my phone, it reads the SD card properly for during 15 minutes also, then it stops.
The weird thing I noticed is that after the phone stops "reading" the SD card, if I open the file explorer it shows the SD card folder and it's free space / total space. But when I try to open the folder, it says "folder is empty." Any ideas?
NB: I tr'ied several SD cards and I always encounter this same problem.
My phone is an Elephone P7000.
Hi I have exactly the same problem - did u ever manage to fix it ? (its hard to google for this issue)
Hello guys,
Recently I bought micro SD Card, SanDisk 64GB, and it's getting really annoying...problem is, while I listen music, or sometimes when I open Album (I transferred all my media on SD Card), music sometimes stops, and some songs cannot been played, there is no songs anymore, there is no pictures in album anymore and I get notification like "Still ejecting, don't remove SD card". Then I need to close the app and open it again, or even worse, I need to restart my phone. Is there anyone there who could know solution for this, is this SD Card problem or System UI problem? Btw, I'm on Android 6.0.
Hope you guys understood what is my problem and that you have some sort of solution.
Hi,
apparently we are having the same problem. Iam using the 32GB version from my last phone but the same issue. Did you solve it already?
Nope, I kinda gave up. Gonna look for new card

I tried to turn off battery optimisation for System UI, Android System and Settings storage, after couple hours, still got no notification or problems whatsoever. I'll let you guys know if there is something new happens.
Did a clean format in PC with FAT32. Then put it into the phone-again the ejecting message. So put it out and in again-no problem. Format the card in the phone and now it seems to work.
Will see tomorrow if there will be any issues.
Anyway thx for tips.
Take a look at:

Is your card class 10 ?
There's some issues with "ultra high speed" (SDXC class 10+) and their detection,
they randomly get thrown off and sometimes get re-detected

It looks like I just kinda make notification appearing more rarely but again, this morning notification appeared. In few days I'll get another Micro SD card, hope that would solve my issues.
And to the zacharias, thanks for your reply but as it seems in that thread, Update #20.d it's all about when music isn't playing, at me there is no specific time of the day or actions when card goes in ejecting mode, it could happen while I even listen the music (couple times already), while I browse my album pictures or just randomly, without any action caused. I think it could be a Micro SD card problem, or (I would like if this is an issue) some applications are causing this problem.
Thanks again guys! Post more if you have some suggestions or solutions.
I am getting an error, old as android itself, with my new s7 Exynos. "The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected". This happens when I try to copy my 25 gb music library on external sd card. I tried all usual stuff like:
- Use different cables
- Reinstall samsung drivers via Kies
- Transfer using MTP or PTP
- Use USB Debugging on and Stay awake option on
- Tried pushing folder via ADB push command, but it says "Read-only file system" when I typed location as /sdcard1 (which I think is an extSdcard right? It did copy a .txt file if I typed just /sdcard but that is internal storage)
- Tried with Samsungs own SmartSwitch but the bloody thing doesn't even have an option to copy files to device (only backup and restore), and Kies is not supported for S7.
On side note, the same sd card worked perfectly with my S3 and gave no errors. When I inserted sd card into S7, I formatted it inside the device. What other troubleshooting stuff should I do? I can't believe that this crap is still an issue. Why can't we have our USB Mass Storage back?
-----------------------------
Big edit:
Ok my phone doesn't seem to like this sdcard. I inserted microsd card to my s3 and copied 17 gb of files, to check if there is a problem with MTP connection or sdcard, but it copied all 17 gb of files without any errors or problems. I checked on phone if it reads correctly, and all music plays fine instantly without any lag or freez. But when I inserted this micro sdcard back into my s7, there was a massive lag/freezes. When I click "MyFiles" or "SolidExplorer", or any other file manager, there is a big lag/freeze, and file manager never opens (it is always stuck). Also, when I go into settings and when I press "unmount" under storage, nothing happens. When I press home, it doesnt go to home screen, and says that touchwizz is not responding (if I change default applications to Nova launcher, it does go to the homescreen though). When I try to open Shealth app, it doesnt open it. Also when I put my phone to sleep, I have to wait like 10 seconds for screen to turn off sometimes. When I pop out sdcard though, all the problems go away INSTANTLY. Everything is smooth again and responsive, file manager opens, shealth opens, everything works like it should. If I insert sd card back in, same problems happen.
And as a cherry on the cake, I put sdcard back into my s3, and everything still works fine. All files are readable, music playes, etc.
When I was searching online, this is the closest thing I have found that explains my problems, but there was no solution: http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-note-4/542854-sd-card-freezes-note-4-a.html
Anyone ever experienced anything similar?
EDIT: Luckly, it was not my phone fault. It was my sd card. Even though it worked fine on s3 and my friends s5, it didn't work in s7 for some reason. I purchased samsung evo+ and it works flawlessly.
try format as exfat ?
Can't, it is 32gb card and it is not allowing me. Also, sometimes when I insert it, the whole phone freezes complitely. Once I even had to use volume down + power button for 10 seconds reset method since it froze complitely. Card is in fat32.
edit: I also tried copying files from USB flash drive (adata 64gb exFat) to sdcard directly on my phone, via OTG cable. It also stopped the process midway and phone wouldn't enter into any file storage (it froze). I had to remove sdcard again and insert it back in to remove that freezing.
edit2: I copied 17gb folder full of subfolders to internal storage, and it transferred without any problems and pretty fast (about 20 minutes). That means MTP connection and drivers are fine. When I tried copying the same 17gb folder to external sd card, "device stopped responding or has been disconnected" error again.
It seems like this is a lot bigger problem, as this is not really an issue about "device stopped responding" anymore. I edited first post. Still looking for solution.
Search the forums, this is a known issue with some phones. You can try other cards, sometimes that will help. Or get your phone replaced as it's a hardware defect. My first S7 was like that. This one reads sdcard without issues (but has radio issues).
