Hello, since a few months, my Tomtom 7.916 crashes regularly. It has 3 appearences:
1) complete freeze, need to remove battery
2) distorted screen
3) crashing program: gives message that files from storage card cannot be read.
In case of 2) and 3), my HD mini seems not able to find the Storage Card anymore: both in settings and in explorer. After a soft reset, the card is back again. During sommer Holiday, I did not have any issue at all. The only thing I remember from that time is that at some stage, the storage card was known as storage card2, which was also quite annoying though, but that happened only once or twice: my issue now happens everytime I use Tomtom, sometimes once every hour, sometimes once every minute.
Any ideas are welcome.
i have faced the same issue i lost all my data and apps that was stored on my memory card , it happened after i was using the the phone while being plugged to the pc and i restated my phone cuz it was stuck (still plugged ) after i switched on back the phone to my surprise i cudnt read my installed apps it says either the app is removed or relocated but then when i went to the explorer file to take a look at my storage card i found it empty !!!!!! i lost all the data there
i have a 8 GB memory card so im guessing maybe the issue is from the card itself or that its from china!! i have no clue yet, up to now its working fine .
ok, I must say in my case, I never lost any data from the storage card. But indeed, it cold still be the cause of the problems. Are there any ways to reformat the SD card in order to obtain more reliabile performance? What did you do with it when you lost all the data?
Did another check:
when Tomtom is running, and I plug in the USB cable and choose the diskdrive option, I get exactly the same failure signature 1) 2) or 3) as listed above. So maybe, my HD mini sometimes "thinks" a data cable is connected iso just the charger. I know there has been an issue in the beginning with the HD mini not recognising when a charging cable was connected.
Any thought on this? Do I talk nonsense?
Try TTN7.917.9186_vga_black_cuckoo_NOBT instead of 916, had the same issues with 916 before!

Sorry, made a mistake in my first post: this 7.917.9186 is exactly the one I am already running.
Had the same issue with my storage card. Solved by reinstalling the same software again (7.916)
Does it only happen with tom tom? I haven't used tom tom today, but my SD card suddenly is gone ! This is the second time in a few months...and it really annoys me, it really looks like a bug in WM. Thankfully this time, after a reboot it works again....
I had similar effects also without Tomtom, but then the storage card became "storage card 2". And after a reboot it became "storage card" again. But with Tomtom I completely loose the card, and it comes back after reboot. So a bit different, but your case could have the same reason. I will try a reinstall.
Its an amazing device. But it reboots twice a day. I am thinking the problem could be External SD card. 80% reboots happens when I connect my device using USB mode to transfer the music and videos
Does anyone experiencing it and does anyone has solution or work around?

Sometimes it cause by bad contact SIM card. Try clean the card's contact points or replace a new one if your SIM card is many years old.
Seems android phones will try fix the SIM lost contact problem by reboot the device.
It might be a damaged sd card too, it's weird that it happens in that right moment when you plug the usb, try with a different one and see

I have the same problem reboot every time I disconnect it from the pc
My note reboots aleatory from nothing and sometimes really freeze with the screen off and I need to remove the battery to restart :s
Any idea? I really dont want to go change it with a new one because I need to make some kilometers to change it. Was the possibility that it is just software problems and if I flash a new rom it become stable?
The Note come with one old rom (I dont know what rom) and it make some reboots but dont make so many like now. When I connect to a Wi-Fi it say that was a update (16 MB) and I make that update. Then the reboots come with more frequency and make that problem of freeze with the screen of. Today morning I make a Wipe to data and Cache (in Recovery 3e) and reset it. Now it dont freeze but make some FC with the most installed (from markt and Samsung Apps) and sometimes reset with no reason.
TY for any help.
Sorry for the bad english.
EDIT:
I see now. When it is charging(turned off), when it stay "off" (without I see how go the battery) a little time, it freeze. Could be that that's happen when is on and when go to stand-by and it freeze. Anyone know whats happen?
Double post. Delete pls.
Last night my device was rebooting on its own.
After that I didnt got the message that my storrage isnt working but the first time start wizard popped up.
I was rebooting and removing the battery and SD card a few times but nothing changed. I was looking in the settings and it looks like that my storrage is empty.
I had this kind of issues sometimes before but after a few reboots it was always working again.
What happend and how can I boot my profile again?
Thanks!

im not sure that yanking the SD card out and reinserting it is a good idea, especially with rebooting. an it sounds like you have an SD compatibility issue as well, my advice, start over with a new SD card, do your homework tho as not all cards will work!
I put in Samsung SD card yesterday and this stupid notification keeps coming back even after trying disabling notifications. Anyone know how to get rid of this
Swipe to dismiss it. But once you restart your phone, it will come back. It's annoying for sure.
I think Samsung will release an update to fix this bug. I have the same problem too, you're not alone.
you may want to try powering off, eject sim tray, make sure microsd card is positioned properly in tray, carefully reinsert.
after that, hopefully the notification only occurs on boot. I did that yesterday, so far so good. My music app seemed be be having trouble finding music on my sd, which is why i tried this.
I was having the same problem with the sd-card notification so I copied everything and then formatted it in the phone then placed my back ups back in and haven't had the problem since try that it worked for me
Has anyone been able to move apps to SD as reported by Droid-Life? I cannot for the life of me figure out how.

Go to Settings>Applications> Applications Manager> Select the App you want to move> Storage> Change, and select "SD Card"
That will do ti.
PS you cannot do that on preinstalled apps.
Hey guys, just wanted to post a solution to the problem. All of you with this phone, that use an external SD card, are getting an annoying notification that says, "SD card For transferring photos and media," and it doesnt seem to go away. If this message appears over and over again in your status bar, the only known way to get rid of it was to previously just keep "clearing" it out or remove the SD card completely.
If you are receiving a notification "SD card For transferring photos and media" on your Samsung Galaxy S7 and you cannot get the notification to go away, please try to do the following:
1. BACKUP your sd card - plug your phone into your computer and copy off the contents of the SD card
2. On the phone, navigate to: Settings >> Memory >> SD Card
3. In the submenu, choose FORMAT
All of the data on the memory card will be formatted to the correct file system and the memory card will be reconnected to the phone for proper use. The message, "SD card For transferring photos and media" should no longer appear.
Hopefully this helped you out! Thanks!
But didn't most of us formatted the cards already the first time we insert it into the phone, and still getting the notification? At least I did. Do I need to format again?

That doesn't work. I did that a few days ago and while the notifications went away for an entire two days, they came back and never left until I just removed the SD card completely. I even tried taping the SD card in the tray.
Just another bug filled phone from Samsung.

Put my PNY 128gb back in after the update to test. So far so good, but it's only been an hour....
Edit1: Made it through a full day without the sd unmounting. This used to happen every 20 minutes or so before the update. Fingers crossed.
Edit2: Update didn't help. Unmounted a few times today.
I had this problem when I first got the phone on Friday night but it went away overnight. It hasn't popped up since

You might get lucky but mine went away for over 24 hours and then reared it's ugly head again.

That is crazy, but yeah I was pretty annoyed by it. If I remember I'll ask a Samsung rep tomorrow when I go to work and see if they know anything about it

Not everyone gets this popup - could it be connected to specific SDCards and not all. I put a brand X 256 kg card in and no issies so far.

That's what I'm thinking. I'm using a SanDisk Extreme 64GB and I only get the notification when I reboot but I can swipe it away

I haven't seen a notification since I changed it over to adoptable storage.

I figured they would go away when you change it to adoptable storage. Maybe these notifications are a bug Samsung created while trying to hide these SD card features such as adoptable storage from us.
Do you know if using adoptable storage lowers the read/write speeds?
There re two threads about the sd issue on the s7 edge forum and one in the s7 forum. Total of 8 people having problems. I checked several of the other carriers s7/s7 edge forums and not a single post that I could find.
I called T-Mo, and after messing with a tech guy for 10 minutes, they decided I should just get another phone. I was assured over and over again that it would not affect my BOGO submission, but the person who took my replacement order told me to make another submission after I get the replacement, which kind of makes me nervous. This phone if OK if it's free, but I wouldn't pay for it.
This notification keeps popping up a couple times a day. I've formatted, mounted, unmounted the card and it's still haunting me.
Is there any way to stop this?
Its a standard firmware thing it seems. Everyone with sd card gets it

Does it only happen after a reboot? If so that's normal and there doesn't seem to be a way of supressing it.
If not then you may have an SD card problem. Some people have complained that the SD card keeps getting unmounted due to errors.

I also have this but only after reboot. I don't have issues this unmounted card. I think you're right that's the sd card is maybe the problem. I have a Samsung evo 64gb in it. Used it in my s5 before.
I tried re sitting the card but no luck. I ended up removing it for now. Not happy cause it's never happened before with any other phone
The card stays mounted and works 100% but I keep getting that notification with no reboot involved.
You can just clear it away but it still rears it's ugly head a couple times a day.

At least I'm not alone.
I'm getting it at random times, mostly when the phone is off. I even remounted the Samsung Evo+ 64G to make sure it's on correctly. It's happening and it's annoying.
PNY 64 GB high capacity and it's driving me insane. Even if I unmount it the phone automatically mounts it every so often!!
I get the same message when I power down and back up and thats on a samsung evo+.. haha

The notification presents itself when the SD card mounts, which is why you receive it every time you reboot. If you see it during normal use then the card is being unmounted and remounted for some reason. This means there is an issue either with the card, the card slot or a system process crash.

I will reseat the card when I have a chance and let you guys know. I've been having a few weird issues with this phone though. I can't enable System UI options by holding the settings icon in the notification center... it just never spins, my battery drains very fast in use and this SD card thing.
I am also getting these annoying SD Card notifications. Mine happen every time I turn the phone off. The notification is there when I wake the phone back up.
The card is a SanDisk 64gb Extreme Pro.

I tried 3 different SD cards I had laying around and they'll all kept getting unmounted.
Here's how I fixed it: of course make sure than both the SD and the sim card are properly sitting on the tray , then SLOWLY insert the tray straight from all angles. When I say slowly it means between 8-15 seconds and NOT with a swift push!
There is a notification you can turn off so these stop. I believe its in the My Files app from samsung. turn off the notifications and it should go away.
( i may be wrong on the app, i had a bunch i turned down. finding running programs was not as easy to find as my old note)
Wonder if the Samsung Pro + card is the problem?
Was going to get the 200GB Sandisk for the same price but went for the Pro + as I thought it would be better.

I was having the same problem, then I remembered the "OK Google" notification from android wear watches.
Follow along here.
This was a notification that people could not get rid of, it just sat there every time they turned the watches on.
Then people realised that it started dissapearing on its own.
Then we realised that it was set to appear until you used it so much, sort of like a reminder that it was there and then it would disappear.
Finally people realised if you just woke the watch up and said ok google a few times it would go away for good.
Still with me?
If so you might know what I am saying already.
If you use the SD card for a while the notification will go away and not come back.
I took about 20 pictures with the camera set to store pictures on the SD card and it went away.
My wife took a 20 second video and hers went away.
TLDR, Use the SD card, the notification is just a reminder that it is there and available.
