Damaged SD card!!

I don't know when did this started happening actually, I flashed a number of roms in the past couple of days, but I can't get rid of this stupid notification and its really driving me crazy!
When I mount my SD card so I can transfer files from PC and the unmount I get the error "Damaged SD Card - SD card damaged you may have to reformat it"
The thing is reformatting does not solve it, and when I have this notification nothing that accesses the card works (music, photos, astro..)
I tried reflashing my rom again which made the error go away for a while but after some mount-unmount I have it again!
I have a non-branded HTC magic (32A) with Cyanogen 4.2.3 and Enoch theme and RA's recovery image and NO apps2sd
Any help?
Thanks

fixed it
Okay I got it to go away, I formatted from the recovery menu (fat32 only)
and I turned off the swap file and uninstalled the swapper app.
No problems so far!

i've found that rebooting the phone makes the sd card damaged error message go away
and that rebooting my pc actually solved the problem of the pc not seeing the sdcard
but that may just be temporary, i dont know

Strange SD Card!
When I mounted my SD Card I was receiving an error and was asked to Scan or Continue. I chose scan and then it looks like it mounted fine. I can view all the folders and files but if I try to copy any files to the card or try to create a folder I get an error saying the Drive is not available and it is no longer mounted. I put the card in a card reader and I received the Scan option again and I scanned it to fix any errors but it doesn't find any. I then can copy, delete and modify anything on the card. I put the card back in the phone and mount the card. No issues until I try to copy, delete or modify and it unmounts and will not work. I have the original T-Mobile Rom and I have not rooted it.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

[Q] SD Card Unmounted Overnight, Seems DOA

I woke up this morning to find my default ring tone had changed. Upon investigating, I found a message saying my SD card was unmounted. Under settings, all items related to the SD card were greyed out.
I rebooted but that did not fix the issue. So I removed the card and put it in my computers card reader. It offered to scan and repair so I selected that, however, it just sat there doing nothing, so I cancelled.
I put it back in my EVO and booted, but still the card remained unmounted. I returned it to my computer, rinse, repeat, only this time, after like five or ten minutes, the files showed up. The first thing I did after that was try to copy everything to a folder on my HDD. Some items copied, but then the copy process froze.
I have been backing up with titainium and another app for texts, but these BU to my SD card! So unless I get this card going again, my back-ups are gone.
So question #1: Is this a known issue?
#2: Is there any process I can try to get my files back?
#3: Do I need to throw my 16 GB card away?

i had the same issue
you're gonna have to do a complete reformat from the android settings
fixed it for me...gonna have to start from scratch

SD card suddenly no good??

Hey all, I'm hoping somebody can help me. I'm currently running a rooted stock S5 I have safestrap installed and towel root.
All of a sudden this morning when I open to my gallery and pressed on a picture, it would not get bigger. I didn't think anything of it so I rebooted my phone. And when it came back up there was nothing on the SD card, all of my pictures and my music has disappeared. I unmount the SD card pulled it out rebooted we mounted SD card and I got an error message saying that the SD card was blank or the files are not supported. Has anyone come across this before?
When I got home from work, I pulled the SD card out put it in a card reader and on my computer again there were no files at all on the card. I put the card back in the phone and tried to reformat it, it would not reformat. I tried with several different SD cards and I'm getting the same error message saying that the card is blank and the file is not supported.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you might wanna try minitool partition wizard on your pc with your micro sd in your card reader and plugged into your pc and when you pull up your sd card im sure youll see your sd card isn't fat32 anymore and is Linux so to fix youll need to right click on the sd and click delete then put back into your phone and format then youll have it working again, but sorry to say your files are now gone on your micro sd

"Blank SD Card" error on every SD Card I insert in the phone

I'm seriously confused.
My original SD card is recognized on my PC, but when I place it in my phone I get a "SD card is blank or has unsupported filesystem". When I click the notification it asks to format. I press format and the notification goes away for a second and then comes back with the same error. I tried formatting it again on my pc and I still get the same error.
It's not the hardware of the phone since it can recognize me removing and adding a SD card. It's not the software because I flashed another firmware and still got the same error. It's also not the SD card since it's recognized by my computer and I also get the same error on my phone with another SD card.
Does anyone have any idea what's happening? Or what I can do to fix this?
It started while I was trying to flash a custom deoxed firmware on my phone.
