Hi guys,
I am having a problem with my phone, i've researched everywhere but it seems that no one is experiencing the issue as me, or at least I couldnt find anybody.
The thing is that one day after syncing my phone, when I unmounted the sd card(in the correct way) and I inserted it in the phone, the phone started to freeze everytime I locked it, once I locked the phone it became unresponsie, everytime. I can turn on the display but it doesnt respond to touch, the digital buttons either. However, if I get a notification it does show up in the display, so the phone its not dead.
This behavior happens with every card I have, ive tried with 3 different cards and everytime I sync them to my mac my phone responds this way.
I did a factory reset, I wiped everything and installed different roms but the issue remains. I also formatted the cards several times.
For the phone to work correctly it has to be card-free or with a sd card that has never synced with my computer.
I uploaded a video to make the problem more understandable, Im really desperate so any help will be greatly appreciated,
thank you!!

If the issue only happen AFTER you sync it to your PC that would make me think to look at what files you are syncing and how you are doing it. What are you loading on to your sd card? What class is your SD card as I have seen cards with a class less then 4 can cause issues.
Yes I thought of that, im just syncing music, and its the exact playlist i've been syncing before with this phone. I did a virus scan and nothing. Maybe a file suddenly became corrupted, but there is no warning about that..
I've tried with class 6, class 4 and class 2, all with the same problems..
I forgot to clarify that yesterday I synced the same files and for a while everything worked perfectly, I was able to play my music, etc. But all of a sudden I opened the camera app and the phone freezed, It did this everytime until I removed the card...
I appreciate your help, thanks

Sounds like maybe the virus scan is not detecting it. Are you syncing it while the card is in the phone? I would try that with blocks of music until the problem pops up and then you can slim it down from there
zelendel, thanks for your help, I did try those things and the problem remains.
However after trying different things I discovered that the files are not the problem because I synced all my music wirelessly and everything worked perfectly. Until I connected my phone to my mac without syncing and unmounted the sd-card.
My guess is that there is a problem with the mount-unmount mechanism, it may be a hardware issue I dont know. Its weird, because once I unmount, the sd-card prepares and the phone identifies it, but after that I cant open any music application, camera, etc and once I lock and try to unlock the phone, it freezes as I stated before.. Im lost
What do you think? any ideas?
thanks again!
Same Thing here in Xperia mini St15i Please Helpppppp?!

Sorry, something that is confusing....if you are unmounting your sdcard then that is why that you cannot open files..it is unmounted. What happens when u pull your sdcard out? unmount it from settings>storage and see how the phone behaves....if works smoothly then it might be a slot issue....
If your phone rooted?
Its stock rom? Hace u ever do something to ir? Probably its hardware problem.

Hello fellas
Same problem experienced here on two different Huwawei android phones -> sonic and ideos..gingerbread and froyo respectively.
Everytime the phones do sdcard I/O opps, all UI elements become unresponsive but bg tasks run coz they ring during incoming calls and texts.
The sdcard is the same...a 4gb kingston.
I know the sdcard works well because i've tested it more than once using H2testw 1.4 ....no flaws reported at all!
The card also works flawlessly on my nokia E63.
Does anyone have a fix for this?
sd card error ... guess so.
Hey there am too experiencing the same prob . When i insert the sd card class 2 the phone freezes , and becomes unresponsive until i remove the card ... Since dis post is about 2 yr old so guess there might b some solution to dis prob ... .... thankzz in advance
Hello, this is my first post so bare with me.
I have recently encountered a problem with the media scanner & media related apps in general.
For example, sometimes my phone would run media scanner for 30 minutes straight without stopping, and I would have to clear data on the media storage app to stop it, but that is very annoying as it clears my music playlists as well. Even apps such as dropbox has problems as well. For example, when I try to upload some pictures, the pictures dont show up and just freeze my phone for around 2 minutes or so. And as I open media related apps such as gallery or music player, the phone would freeze again. It is getting quite annoying, and I would like to know how to solve it.
I have tried various ways, such as formatting SD card, repairing SD card (even though there isnt corrupted files) and more.
I am on a stock ROM, not rooted. On a galaxy s2 LTE (Canada Rogers variant)
just try reformatting the sd card again - hilarious.
no seriously that isnt a terribly clear question, sounds like your having all sorts of issues,
you could try
1. resest to factory defaults - if it was working fine when you got it
2. install a custom rom - if its been happening since you got it
Thanks for your reply , but I think it happened after I installed a certain app. I will see if this problem occurs again. (Stopped it with clearing data from media storage again)
I am using Mango (7.10.8107.79) on my Samsung Focus v1.3.
I have installed gMaps (free v 1.24.0.0) and Endomondo Sports Tracker (free v 6.1.0.0) which use GPS. Whenever I have data connection and location enabled and use any of the two applications, phone restarts everytime. I have started observing this behavior after updating both the apps just 2-3 days ago. Earlier this was not observed.
Has anybody observed the same? What can be done to determine what is causing this?
Can anybody please help me? I am now experiencing random restarts. Once Phone restarted when I had kept it charging by connecting to my laptop, other time it restarted when I was browsing music in Zune.
Can this be due to faulty SD Card? I have waited to see any reply before doing a reset.
Yes it can be caused by SD cards... And yes I'd go for a hardreset.
Are you on stock roms or on a custom rom?
the main reason i left this platform random reboots.Soon it will be from pictures and everywhere wait and see!:crying:
I would suspect a faulty or too slow SD -card. Too slow SD card caused random resets on my HTC 7 Pro. Check the card, also hardreset and trying a different rom could be a route I would try.
Thanks all for your replies. I am on stock ROM. I will hard reset the phone after removing SD Card to see what happens.
Hi all,
I'm new and unsure whether this is the right place (I couldn't post on the i9100g develpment section). Apologies if it is not.
I've been living with a very annoying bug I reported over nine months ago on the CyanogenMod forum.
40 seconds or so into a song, the phone freezes, whether the music file is on internal memory or external SD card. Sometimes but less frequently, it also freezes after receiving a phone call or a text message. I tried wiping data & cache partition, flashing new kernel, without the SD card, without headphones, without sound.*I now run the 10.0*stable release.
Once it's frozen, the only option is to shut-off the phone manually (sometimes only taking off the battery will do) and reboot. As you can imagine, this is very tiresome. Nobody has been abmle to help thus far...
I saved the logs of a session before the phone crashed, and I was wondering if anybody would be able to read them and spot the bug. FYI, this log is with the phone playing music with Appolo. At the end of it, the phone blocked:
paste.debian.net/249306/ (can't paste the link to the log, but this is it).
Thanks for your help...

Searched XDA but found nothing.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 from Sprint. In about a month, my plan is to replace it with the Sprint LG G3, and I'm thinking this problem will follow me there.
I have one perfectly functioning external 32GB SD card and a few Galaxy S3's. If I'm flashing something to my secondary phone to test it, I'll unmount and pull the SD card to use it. Every time I do that and re-mount it to my primary device, my playlists revert to what looks to be about 12 songs stored on my internal device. I have to go through and set up all my play lists again, and a few of them are big. Problem!
I'm currently using CM11 use Apollo music player, but I've used Fusion and others. The problem with my play lists disappearing happens on all the roms and players I've tried. I have no other issues related to my SD card, so I'm thinking this is not a card problem, but rather a file storage problem. But, I could definitely be wrong!
My music file is so big, I can't store them internally. Is there a fix for storing my playlists somewhere or in the settings so this doesn't happen every time?
Thanks!
