Hi All,
I just turned the phone off and then on again and when it turned on I got an error message saying warning! no sd card inserted. There was one in the phone and it seemed to work fine after that. It does it nearly every time I reboot the phone.
Is this normal?
Thanks.
Well, it has happened to me a couple of times. Just remove the battery and jerk the memory card a bit and it should work again.
just make sure the microsd card is inserted properly. When you push it in it should do a click

I'm having SD card issues. Suddenly the SD card isn't recognized; certain folders/files don't show up in the file manager. I also get a message when opening the camera, stating, "Please insert an SD card before using the camera." If I remove, then re-insert, the card reappears, but I get an error message that I removed it improperly. It reverts back to the initial problem soon after.
Please Help!!!
Unmount the SDcard,
Settings> SD card & storage > Unmount SD card
from there you'll click Format SD card..
You'll lose any data you have but since the card isnt reading anyways there isnt much else you can do to fix that.

This issue isn't a constant one; it reads the card properly most of the time. Is reformatting the only solution to this problem, or is there anything else I can try?
Well if it reads it some of the time the it seems like its a sd card slot that's the problem and not the card... MyTouch's have had some problems with fault sd card slots. You might look into sending it back to HTC and having it repaired seeing as it's most likely a hardware issue.

that blows! i've only had the phone a couple months. this issue started happening recently, not the entire time i've had the phone. is there a way for me to test the slot on my own, without having to send it out?
SD Card Data
Since I've bought the T-Mobile myTouch 3G (1.2/LE) I've had reoccurring problems with the 8GB microSD card that came with the phone. It would randomly say that the card was blank, but a quick pop in and out of the slot fixed the problem. The problem has turned permanent now; my pop in/out method hasn't worked (it still comes up blank). When I insert the SD card into my standalone SD card reader it goes unrecognized; nothing happens (which is the standard reaction when plugging in the reader without a card).
I have another 2GB microSD card which works fine (on my phone and with the card reader), so the problem isn't the card reading mechanism. While in the SD card settings on my phone I hit "Format" by mistake I then clicked the "Erase" button in the following prompt, however nothing happened! Something strange is going on, which leads me to believe that there's a chance I can recover the lost data on the card. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
-Adam

Probably a bad sdcard. It happens. Reformat and try it again. If that fails then get a new sdcard.
By the way, I'm merging with a similar post that you made a couple of months ago.

I'm trying to keep this forum clean and organized you know.
Now the 2GB card got erased! It was called "2GB," Now it's blank (besides a directory called "LOST.DIR" w/ nothing in it) and called "NO NAME."
Do you think the phone could be causing this to keep happening? This is how it started w/ the 8GB card until it eventually stopped being recognized at all. Is the SD format supposed to be FAT32?
Thanks,

was trying to access a game after putting it into my phone and it froze, causing me to take out the battery and restart it.
After that, the phone wouldn't read the memory card but everything was fine.
I went back to stock and still, it's not reading it but everything else works fine. I will eventually have to re-root it but anyone know what the problem is?
after pulling down the upper bar, it says "SD card blank or has unsupported file system." HELP!!!!!!!!!!
Do You have a micro sd to sd adapter and an sd reader? If so, does your computer read the info? If not then the card is messed up, and needs to be formatted (lose everything) or replaced. Sometimes cards just die.
If you don't have an adapter and sd reader, then you can try formatting it from your phone but again, you will lose everything.
Had a similar problem, in the end bestbuy replaced my sd card as it happened the day I bought my phone. I would start by trying to use it in either another phone or on a computer(like in a usb micro sd card adapter)

seems like the card died because of a corrupted game file,..which sucks!
think I need to get another SD card...dammit..
computer won't read it, phone won't read it..
and like you devastator, i got the phone 5 days ago and had to replace the phone once already because of a crack inside the screen causing dead pixels. blahhh
Hey,
I just took out my SD card to view it on my PC and when I returned it to the phone, it would not read. No problems on thePC, but the HD2 says there's no card mounted. Tried another card and it showed up so I put mine back in and it would not. Put the other one in again and now it doesn't show up either. Can't find anyone that has had a similar problem by searching.
ARRRGGHHHH!!!!
Any ideas?
Thank you,
OZ
Adapter?
Hey,
I guess you used an adapter to view your micro-sd card on your PC?!
My adapter has a switch on the side which enables/disables read/write protection for the micro-sd card. If yours has that too, make sure that the read/write protection is disabled!
Greetz
Thank you,
It has started being seen again. Don't know why it stopped or restarted... Lost use for a few hours.

Happened AGAIN!
Okay, this is getting annoying...
Rebooted the phone and go a message sayiing "damaged SD card" rebooted again, same thing. took card out, works with a reader on PC still. reinstalled and no good. repeated three times and rebooted again...found it, this time.
Anyone have any reason this could be happening?
Thanks,

Hi guys, I dropped my phone for the first time EVER in my life (was really sleepy).
Now I can't use my sd card, the phone gave me a popup that it was unexpectedly removed and after that it keeps saying it encountered a problem.
Things like Gallery tell me to "please insert an sd card", it's in there!
I have no idea what to do and it's at least three months left until I can get a new phone, please help me.
Oh, by the way, my phone's not rooted, just normal HTC Sense.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Thread can be closed, I was a dummy and didn't try to remove battery first.
Haha i know the feeling
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
try to remove it and put it back again. if that doesnt help..recover your photos and everything else with some software and format it
Oh my God..
I didn't even drop it and now it happened again!
Removing the battery and micro sd card didn't work. :crying:
Depending on what important info you have on your SD card, you could consider formatting it via your PC, if you have an SD card slot somewhere.
I had a similar issue some months ago, and formatting the card (via Windows) did the trick.
Of course, remember that formatting the card will erase all data on it, and therefore it could render some apps on your phone to be useless / or not work.
(This might sound weird, but if you have another SD card, try formatting that too and putting that in your phone. Then take out the battery, put the original SD card in and see if it is OK after booting up.)
I bought a generic 64GB sd card off ebay. Card worked in my phone till i tried to transfer files to it then all of a sudden after reboot it shows "Blank SD Card SD card is blank or has unsupported files" The funny thing is this card read in any other phone my wifes s3 my mothers LG and even my co workers S4 (granted shes on ATT) It does not matter how many times i take it out and put it back in I still get the blank SD. I put it in a card reader and all the files are there. I have formated it to ext4 fat32 and it came fatext and once in a while if i format it it shows up in phone again till i try to put files on it and back to blank sd. I can read and write files to it no problem in another phone and sd card reader. plug and unplug it all day and it still loads up. Except on my phone. Im thinking i have a defect on my new phone. Anyone else have this problem? I even updated to the MF9 to see if this was a bug maybe they fixed. But i think its the phone when i was rooted with TWRP even twrp would freeze if i had the card plugged in till i ejected it. Oh yea cant even format it in the phone it has the option but does not work either. Some times it just keeps telling me its safe to remove card no matter how many times I hit mount.
These are the sort of things generic cards do. Your best solution is to get an authentic sd card. Be it big name brand or small.
I had this issue on my first sgs4, it also had some issue where it wasn't reading the battery properly (always at 100%). The first 32 GB card did this,read it fine at first then the sd went and did the issue you're having. Returned the phone and the same thing happened on the new phone. The card was some off brand (pny I think). Picked up a 64GB SanDisk has been working so far, but I saw this error come up fora moment but it quickly remounted.
Kind of scared it would happen again (my alarm clock will fail if the sd card dismounted). So I had to go get an old fashioned alarm clock for the first time in7 years.
