Ever since I got the M8 i've been having issues with the camera storage to SD card. I am now rooted and running a custom rom, but still experience the same issue. I have the Camera photo files saved to Ext SD card. I can take the photos and it will save fine to the sd card. after a few hours though when I navigate back to the gallery, the photo's will show up as a cached file/missing (Triangle w/ exclamation mark). This was happening on stock unrooted rom. I rooted hopefully fixing this issue but it still happens. I even formated the SD card in the phone and it made no difference. I'm running the latest Skyfall rom. Any suggestions for fixing this other than saving the photos to the internal phone storage would be appreciated.

Im having the same problem. Maybe we can help each other out. Mine is a 64gb class 10 i got off of Amazon. I formatted it every way possible both in a computer and in the phone. I just swapped to an older 32gb ive had for a while and see if I still have problems

Yeah, that was my next plan. I too have a 64GB Samsung class10 card. The phone is supposed to support up to 128GB storage. Let me know how it goes. I will try the same. :good:

Update:
I havent any problems with pics since switching to my 32gb card
I changed my SD card to 32GB and it is working fine now to. Now I can save the photo's to the SD card without it deleting them. sucks that my 64GB card wouldn't work properly. I used the same 64GB card in my Experia Tablet Z and it works fine, saving pics or transferring data. Of course I'm running 4.2.2 on the tablet.
I had the same issues with mine, I had a Trancend 64 Gig from Amazon and switched to a Sandisk 64 Gig I had laying around and its fine now. Both my Trancend cards seemed to have the issue with this phone but not with my Samsung devices.

A few months ago, I purchased a 32 GB Class 10 Micro SD card. It went bad a few days ago and I cannot get anything to read it.
The issue is this: because I have no sd card inside my phone, I can't take pictures, listen to music, etc. However, I recall doing something to make my micro sd card the primary storage, where before it was the internal sd card that stored all the pictures and music.
What can I do to revert to making the internal sd card the primary storage location for all my files?
Thanks for any help.
What kind of phone do you have?

G2X. I am currently running the latest CM7 Nightly.
Just as the title says, I am having random unmounts and remounts of my sd card when trying to download things and when trying to view gallery. Phone is not rooted, its a sprint variant, and it's a 64 GB ultra sd card. I have had this card since my note 3 and it has given me no issues up until now. Am I the only one? Is there a fix for this? It's been doing this since day one.
Sounds like it could be a bad sd card. Try getting a adapter and putting it in your computer. If it reads it back everything up and format the card.
I've had a few micro sd cards crap out on me in the past.
I had the same problem. Never had a problem worth the cardin the previous phone. Format the card in the phone, still does it get a new card. And buy a Samsung micro sd. I have had numerous SanDisk cards die and finally went to Samsung and never had a problem since.

Forgot, not matter what, BACKUP YOUR DATA NOW off that sd card. So if it is going out, at least you will not lose any data.
Thanks all
Did a few Google play store app updates this afternoon. Then decided to restart the phone. The phone no longer recognizes my SD card. Any suggestions?
Never seen a device do this. Tried other micro SD cards I have and the phone recognizes them fine. Tried my 64GB card in the computer and it sees all the data on the card. Stumped on this?
I notice my other SD cards are formatted as FAT32 and my newest 64 GB card is an exFAT format, but it's read it fine up to today?
Have u tried formating it to fat32.
Did the problem go away?
Wouldn't format to fat32. I ended up moving all my data (files, videos, photos, app data, etc.) Over to my computer, then I reformatted the SD card and moved all my data back. Phone reads all the data fine now, but I had to reload all my apps that I had running of the SD card. What a PITA!

I had this problem with a couple of sandisk 64gb microsd's while I was out of town....the only solution I found was finally to use an adata one...and I'm now using a samsung 128gb. I tried formatting it on a linux pc and the phone...it did not like the sandisk's and would eventually lose them. I did have some success in only formatting the 64gb sandisks to 32gb but I may not have waited long enough for it to get corrupted as my adata one was available once I returned home.

I'm starting to have what may develop into the same problem with the Sandisk 64 gb sd card in my camera (not a phone) -- so maybe Sandisk is having some reliability problems?

It was very frustrating for me as the whole point of purchasing sandisk was based on their reliability. I was concerned about the samsung 128gb I picked up for $69.99 but it's worked like a champ and has fast read/write speeds.
Trouble with Samsung EVO 64GB sd card
My Samsung EVO 64GB only partially works with my 6045i. It shows as mounted but struggles to unmount. Takes 2 tries. When I try to have a 3rd party app use it for storage it doesn't show available even with show SD card enabled and use Android 5 Storage Application Framework (see the attached screenshot).
I grabbed two other microSD cards, one Sandisk and one Patriot (Class 4), both 32GB. Both worked flawlessly in my Idol 3.
So now my son's Galaxy S3 is using the 64GB Samsung card (he's running CyanideL) and it appears to operate correctly.
I'm ok with using a 32GB for now, but what other cards are folks using for either 64 or 128GB external storage?

I also own same Samsung 64 gb microsd card. However, i can get access from 3rd party apps, but suffer from random cuts while playing music, seems media app issue.
Problem was firmware not microSD issue.
I have both a Sandisk and Samsung 64gb and they both have had the same problem that every once and while the phone will reboot by itself and when it come back up I cannot access SD card. I have taken it out and I can see all the apps, music and videos are still there on my computer but in the phone nothing. I have to save, reformat and re-download apps.
Anyone have a 128GB card fully working?
So the 64gb Samsung EVO died in my son's S3, so I gave him the 32gb one that I was using and sprung for a 128gb SiliconPower card, rated at up to 75MBps.
I can get the stock camera to save photos to it but when I try Open Camera, it isn't seen. I have storage access framework enabled in OC. I get the attached screenshot. Note that I do have "show sd card" selected. I can toggle it on/off with no visible change.
Its not just Open Camera either. Another app, Solid Explorer, has the same issue if I try move any photo files through it, it asks me to grant permission, shows the same window as attached, and then can't complete because the OS isn't showing it as available.
Any thoughts? Is this a bug in 5.0.2?
thanks,

My phone never rebooted, I have a 128 GB SanDisk Class 10 sd card. But after like a few weeks or months I got a sd card error and soon after that I couldn't access any files on it.
Only rebooting solved the issue, but once I got it it would occur more often and often, sometimes every 2 days and sometimes multiple times a day. Formating the SD card made it work again for a few months until it started all over again.
I formated it to different formats (in windows), I also formatted it with the phone itself, nothing helped.. I'm constantly running out of space now because I only store my music and photos on the sd card.
I never tried a different sd card long enough to recreate the problem, but I used this sd card for a few months on a different device.
If someone fixed this please help me I'm so tired of this :crying:
I have a 128Gb Sandisk in my Mate 7, runs with no issues at all. Maybe clean your contacts?

To be honest I never tried it lol, but if rebooting the phone solves the issue I don't understand how dust or dirt could be the problem. I will try it anyways, maybe it works :cyclops:

Cleaned the sd card and the sd card slot as good as possible, but after a few days I had the same problem again... Maybe my sd card is broken but I can't really test it so I guess I'll live with this forever...
Just now it came to my mind that I could've bought a fake SanDisk card, even though I got it from amazon. I will test it tomorrow I think.
Maybe.
How is it formatted? Probably most compatible to format to FAT32.
I have a 64Gb card in an old phone that was supposed to take a maximum of 32Gb and it works fine when formatted the right way.

It is formatted exFat right now, I formatted it quite a few times since i got the card so I don't know whether I always had exFat or not. I'm checking the SD card now for it's real capacity, with 100 GB left it will take 8 hours, but if it's really a fake card it should cause errors way earlier I think. If that's not the problem I'll wait until I have time to flash KangVIP, then I'll re-format the sd card and do some cleanup while I'm at it.
i bought a 128gb samsung evo+ sdcard and working great so far
Hi all, My S7 no longer sees the 32gb micro SD card. I have removed and cleaned it, gone into safe mode just to see if it's a rogue app was causing the problem. It's still under warranty. Before I go down that route any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
Did you install the "Prime" Kernel ? That was the same to me and this Kernel was "guilty"
Install another Kernel and your SD should be recognized
Sorry should have said "It's out of the box no root". Don't know when it failed to read but yesterday in the maintenance app it didn't show. I have also cleared the cache, just wondering if a Factory reset would fix it?
Does the card work in a PC?
If yes, back it up, wipe it (Delete partitions > create new primary partition > format to FAT32) try it back in the phone, if it works copy your stuff back to it
If it works in PC but not phone, try another card in the phone, if that doesn't work RMA the phone
When I get home from my sons in Bristol will do as you say won't be for a few days. I did a Google and looks like there are a few of us having the same problem. Not quite sure when but think after last SW update a week ago or so, just noticed after!
Thanks.
Just got home and found another micro sd card only 2gb but the phone now sees it. The old card was a genuine Samsung 32gb the only problem is that I don't seem to have a micro card holder to see if the PC will see it. As they are quite cheap now what is the max memory size that will work in the phone and any recommendations?
Thanks.

Good stuff, just going from what it says on Samsung's site, and Android Central
Have you managed to fill all 256GB and have it all readable?
Wow 256GB card could fit the whole of the world's populations data and then some. I am going for a 64GB card with the internal 32GB that will be more than enough for me.
