Well the same day i got my nexus, after taking few pictures, my camera basicly died, started to give errors or restarts the phone, then it was unable to get on at all.
I did factory reset number of times, nothing happened. I thought it's something hardware and forgot about my camera for a while, just to find today that it works again. I took lots of pictures without any problems, shot some video too.
Later in the day when i decided to try it again, it was giving the same error again as day 1 ("The camera application is not responding" and you can force kill it, then if go to the camera again, it says that it couldnt connect to the camera).
So seems like it's something software related since its randomly working, but if factory reset isn't helping, then what it might be that can be fixed softwarely?
I'm rooted now. Still the stock rom.
p.s.
the phone also restarts when i mount the SD card and start copying lots of files and randomly restarts at other occasions too, without any obvious reasons, even when just sitting.
Other than that the phone is great
hopefully its all software that can be fixed though!
Sounds to me like there's something buggy on ya SD card. Id reformat the SD card if ya haven't already and run it empty for a bit to see if the problem persists... I think the most forgotten fix for things if they haven't figured it out is SD card, a lot of issues can come from the SD card, not saying ievery issue is the SD card, but ya be surprised how a card can wack phone out.
Sounds to me like its when your phones accessing the SD card...
yeah makes sense but
i've formatted it many times, and the camera doesnt work even without it (doesnt even start)
btw it's not the original card, but my old one from my HTC HD
the camera is supposed to work and without a SD card inserted right?

I meant keep card in it, just empty without files, formatted and see what happens
i've tried that, doesnt help
Hi,
try formatting SD card with Panasonic SD Formatting Tool,it writes back the partition table and could help. For me worked, I had an issue with gallery, surely related to SD card, and now works well.
Bye
what settings to use to format it?
what fat, cluster size?
i've formated it bunch of times with the windows vista tool, fat32 and the default cluster size (i think) but it didnt help.
And if i recall correctly it was crashing the camera and with SD card out of the phone
yeah just tried again
even with the card out, none of the camera using applications starts, including the camera, barcode scanner and 3d compass
the later 2 dont even take pictures, so they dont need the sd card at all and still they dont work
what else it might be? im getting some other applications crashes from time to time, seems that my phone isnt very stable. And it's stock...huh
I suggest sending it back for repair/replacement. Could very possibly be the result of bad blocks in ram.
You mentioned it isn't the original SD card the phone came with. Why don't you try the original card then, and see if it is the actual card, or the phone that is the problem.

i would have done that long time ago if i had it, this is the only card i have handy at the moment
but it makes the same problem with the card pulled out, so it isn't the card for sure
do u tihnk that there is any chance reflashing the rom would fix it?
any records of factory roms being buggy for just particular devices?
Okay...first off you said it's an older card, you could have bad sectors on your card, some of the older cards only have a read/write cycle of a couple thousand before fail. Second you can't run the camera app without the sd card. Third formatting the card so many times helps you count down those read/write cycles on your card. I'd be pretty confident in saying that your problems would go away after getting a new card. Hope this helped

would be great if its just that
But what do u get you when you try to start the camera app with SD card out
Does it hangs and crashes and you need to force kill it or?
yup....just tried it, i popped my card out rebooted and started camera app, and i got a force close with no option to wait
that's great man! It means that it could actually be from the stupid card!
thank you so much!

has this ever happened to anyone? not sure if its coincidence or not, but i installed the new unstableapps overclock app and it was running at 1.3 fine, was playing a game, it froze, rebooted, then the message pops up in my notification bar that my sd card was damaged and i had to format it. not a huge deal but i lost some pics of my kids on their first field trip in preschool so that sucks. my pc wouldn't even recognize it... just wondering if anyone had any input on this?
I've been stressing my phone while OC'd playing games as well. It occasionally freezes on me, but I've never had a data corruption. I don't have any apps on my SD card, though. Was the game on your card?
Just noticed your post as I just created a thread about my SD Card doing the exact same thing today. I was just taking pictures of my kids when the Camera app Crashed. Restarted my phone and Got the same error about SD card needing to be formated. Running Stock 2.2. I'm not going to format the card until I know for sure the data is gone as I too have pictures on it I need.
yeah i think the game was installed on the card. i think i had the overclock too high. its stable at 1.2 but any higher i get force closes playing that game... maybe i'll try to move it and see what happens...
My SD Card crapped out withing the first week. I hadn't had time to root the phone or overclock it. Verizon replaced it. I think some of the SD cards are defective. This post will remind me to copy the contents of my SD card to my computer in case something like this happens again. I have most of my apps running from the SD card.
If a file is open on your SD card when an app or the phone crashes it will leave the file corrupt on the card. This will throw errors when you're trying to use the card in the phone. You should try making a backup on your PC of the SD card, then poke around on the SD card for the potentially corrupt file. If you can manage to delete it you should be fine.
Hi.
I decided to try out WP7 on my HD2 for the first time.
I run Task29, installed new radio, MAGLDR 1.13 and rom blackSideSeven v1.7.7392.
Everything went preety smooth. I recieved activation code from US support (through chat). Working market place, 3G, wi-fi, apps etc.
After few hours phone reboots itself, goes through MAGLDR and then WP7 says:
"Storage card not working. Your storage card has changed, is damaged, or is non-compliant. (...)".
All I could do then was turning the phone off. Reboots did nothing, so I made a hard reset. It worked, but I lost all my settings etc. Moreover available space went down to 40 MB (from over 1,5 GB).
I decided to format card with SDFormatter(it says my card is not compatible with Full(erase) and does quick format). Again, task29, radio, magldr, wp7. Works again. Few hours later same story. Storage card not working.
I'm using SanDisk 2GB SD card.
Does anyone has an idea what could be the problem here?
Thanks in advance.
Rebooting in WP7 usually means an incompatible sd card, However I was able to find your sd card in the "WP7 Compatible sdcards" .
Try another sd card, preferrably an 8 or 16 gig.
Reference
Thanks for response.
About 13 hours ago I changed SD card from this 2GB SanDisk to 2GB Kingston, used SDFormatter (not compatible with full erase either) and made hard reset. It was loading everything slower for the first time, but after some time it was as fast as SanDisk.
I've been using Zune, wi-fi, 3G, browser, marketplace, xbox-live panel, put some music. So far so good, no reboots and it still shows a lot of space available (which seems a bit strange though, because I almost filled everything with music through Zune).
I hope it will stay like that. I really like WP7, it's UI, speed and simplicity.
So yeah, if anyone will have a similiar problem, try to change SD card and see if that works for you.

actually you might have had more luck because you copied music to it, ive found that if i do not have enough music on my card it will restart, im guessing that the music covers up a dodgy patch of storage, which is fine for playback of music but perhaps doesnt perform as quick for OS functions
After few days I can say everything works really good. On 2GB Kingston I didn't have any reboots. It works a bit slow sometimes though(especially when changing apps and in marketplace). It is good for daily use.
Model: SCH-I545
64gig SD Card
Verizon
All stock/no root
Verizon pretty much forced me recently like many others to update to Lollipop. Once updated, I immediately backed up and did a factory reset on the device. Once it was back up and running, all seemed to be well with the world. It did seem to be a little hotter than normal but it seems overheating is a typical problem these days.
I noticed the issue the following day when I went to load videos and pictures back on to my SD card. They were uploaded via USB just fine but they showed as corrupted in Gallery.
I started trying to take pictures and maybe 1 out of 5 would actually show up. I thought it might be Gallery so I switched to Photos. Same thing. Tried using other cameras with the same results. I ended up factory resetting a second time and formatting the SD Card again as well but no fix. Then the other night I noticed that two of my apps have that "we're broken" icon on them and that they were installed on the SD Card so the issue seem to be connected with that, yet the SD Card works fine. I can plug it in the computer and use it without any issue but when it comes to the camera storing photos or video on it or apps using it, it refuses to work.
Tried contacting Samsung about it but they are useless when it comes to support it would seem so a friend told me to try posting here and maybe someone would have an idea of what is going on.
Thanks, guys.

I formatted it twice.
New to XDA, not new to Android.
Phone: Moto X Play
Rom: Stock Marshmallow 6.1
Issue: SD Card disappears randomly (formatted as internal storage!!!)
Bootloader never unlocked, never rooted.
I have a sandisk 32gb micro sd card that works when I first start the phone. The problem is that it will randomly, completely, disappear.
Now I'm not, IMO, a complete noob. I am fairly (99%) sure it is indeed the sd card at fault. Ok, not an issue, I can always replace it with a new one.
The issue is, of course, that EVERYTHING is on my SD card, most importantly, my photos.
Even without accessing a file manager (phone idle, browsing web, playing games) the sd card will eventually fail leaving it inaccessible until the phone is restarted. When attempting to access my photos, which is what I need most, it fails MUCH quicker.
Having not used the "Google Photos" app before (just Gallery), I am not at all sure if my photos were ever backed up online, If they were, I'm not sure where to look.
Trying to access them via usb, wifi file transfer, bt tranfer, and even from file managers on the phone itself, result in an almost immediate failure of the sd card. 5 seconds or so tops.
The card is formatted as "Internal Storage" and I have not been able to find a way to get a computer or anything else to read it, and I would imagine for security reasons, there is no way.
Here's the question: Is there any way to get photos off the sd card, that wont take me three million years in 5 second intervals, while having to restart the phone every bleeping time the sd card fails to get it to recognize the sd card again?
Suggestions please!
Thanks in advance,
Canabian

Format the card using computer (Not quick format )
Quick format didn't worked for me.
And don't make card as internal, use it as portable
with the sd card in the phone, go to settings - apps, show system apps. then select External Storage, force stop it or clear it cache. do the same to Media Storage. reboot the phone, once everything loaded wait for 5-10 minutes especially if you have lots of files in a large sd card. once that done, connect the phone to your pc (use mtp if i'm not mistaken) and hopefully you can now access the internal (sd card) contents.

This will HOPEFULLY resolve the issue AFTER I get my photos off the card!
What I need help with is getting roughly 10 gigs of data off a card that works intermittently for roughly 5 seconds at a time....

I will try this and report back.
One question... If the card is formatted as internal storage, clearing data for external storage and media storage will not cause the phone to "forget" the sd card will it?
Thanks,
Canabian.
I think I have come up with a solution to my own problem. If this works satisfactorily, I will let others know as this may help many other people facing this issue.
I am on a linux pc. I am going to try to use RSYNC to copy the files over. This SHOULD copy files over, deleting them from the source folder as it goes. Once the sd card fails, which it WILL, once I reboot the phone and start rsync once again, it should "resume" where it left off.
Here is the command for anyone else that may need it:
rsync -v --progress --remove-source-files --recursive --append-verify /path/to/source/files /path/to/destination/folder
Hopefully this works the way I hope it will. Will post back with my results when I can.
Thanks again,
Canabian.
I had the same problem, and the solution (that maybe someone posted somewhere in the internet) is using a faster SD card. Since I switched to a sandisk extreme pro, the problem disappeared. Be careful, though, when using Samsung SD cards: my moto x play doesn't like them much (I had to replace them twice before buying the sandisk; in some way the partition tables of the Samsung SD cards were damaged, plus they became read-only, resulting in two unusable cards).

which samsung model did you use? I just replaced my normal class 10 strontium card yesterday with a brand new samsung evo plus u1 card and formatted it as internal storage. so far the phone feels a bit snappy with this card.
dude search a little in this section and i hope u find the fix.i just let u know that our device has very sensitive sd pins and many users had accidentally bented them and didn't know the problem!
i hope u are not one of them!so if you are lucky,next time u put the sd be veeeery careful!i personally didn't put it out from the time i bought it...

It was just a Samsung Evo class 10. The strange thing is that I tried also a Sandisk of the same class, which gave me only the "external memory missing" problem, while the Samsung ones became just unusable plastic. But maybe I should try better Samsung SD cards.
Does anyone else have an issue with a recurring notification popping up? Android System - SD card encryption - SD card encrypted. I can get it to go away by tapping it, but it comes back an hour or so later (sometimes longer).
I have used this very SD card in my T-Mobile S7 Edge for months (also encrypted) with zero issues until the day I switched to my T-Mobile S8. I've seen many threads out there about this (or similar) SD card notification issues but no definitive answer - some say software issue and some say hardware issue.
if it matters, I encrypted the SD card as soon as I put it into the phone, then applied the latest T-Mobile firmware update (NRD90M.G950USQU1AQD9). Following the advice of other threads, I have since tried decrypting, re-formatting (in the S8), re-encrypting, etc. Same issue. Been able to record 4K clips and 1080P videos on this SD card for almost an hour continuously without issue, so not sure the card is to blame.
I also just installed SD card monitor and can see "EJECT, UNMOUNTED, BAD_REMOVAL, MOUNTED" events occurring over a 3 second period, again and again - about 15 times an hour.
Would appreciate any suggestions!
SD card not supported
I'm getting a similar error. The SD card has been functioning properly for the past 5 days. All of a sudden, I got a notification that the SD card is not supported. In addition, every app that was linked to the SD card vanished! I had to reinstall all of my apps. I would like to know how to fix it. The error keeps on popping up.
I think my problem is the SD card, itself. My computer won't recognize it, either. I just ordered a replacement from Amazon.

Glad you figured it out. Maybe it's the card in my case too, and just coincidence that it stopped working the exact time I put it into my S8. I'll get another SD card to test with.
It is not likely to be the card. If the card is encrypted, your computer will not be able to access it.
I took the SD card out of my S7 and put into my Verizon S8. Seemed to work fine for the past few days even though I was seeing the same SD card encrypted Android system notification. Yesterday I moved a number of apps to the SD card. This morning the phone rebooted itself and instantly all of the apps that I had moved over to the SD card were gone. No greyed out icons, no folder references, nothing. Rebooted into safe mode and I get the same SD card encrypted Android system notification. Android system storage can see the card and reports the 10.55GB that has been used from it.

Have you tried using SD Card Monitor on your S8? I put my SD card back into my S7E and have been running SD Card Monitor - and not seeing any "EJECT, UNMOUNTED, BAD_REMOVAL, MOUNTED" events there (unlike the 15 per hour on my S8), so becoming disheartened that my S8 needs to go back...
I get the exact same thing, but it only happens when the SD card is encrypted. If I decrypt, everything seems fine
Something is wrong with the way Samsung encrypts sd cards... My s7edge my note7 and now this S8... I encrypt because it makes me feel safer... It works perfect about a week or two... Then all of a sudden after a update or a reboot... The phone and no device can read the card and none of my apps or pics and videos can be found and I have to format the card for it to be iseable.. and this is with two different cards. Idk of it's because after an update the encryption key changes or what but it sucks. That this is 3 generations that this issue has been existent
I'm having the same issue with the notification after encrypting. Battery is also draining pretty rapidly while phone is just sitting idle. Using the Samsung 256gb card that came with $99 Gear VR offer. Used card unencrypted for 3 days no issues, then encrypted it and this issue began. Unencrypting as I type. Not worth the aggravation and battery drain.
I got the 256gb Samsung card that came with the immersion bundle. It repeatedly un-mounts with a "bad_removal" multiple times an hour. This happens whether it is encrypted or not. Each time this results in a notification whenever the card is encrypted. I have formatted on the phone, a full format from windows, and a full format with sdformatter tool. In a 24hr period yesterday it did this 70 times. So yea, I cannot use the card for any apps, as it makes them inaccessible until the phone is rebooted. The whole point of the 256gb card with the immersion bundle was so you could install some of the Oculus VR games there due to their large size. My old SanDisk 64gb card I had in my S7 edge and an old 16gb card i had work fine. I called Samsung and had to talk with the e-commerce dept since this was part of a promo. They have no process for replacing a defective card that is part of a promo, so they had to escalate. I am now waiting to hear back.

It's not your card. I bought the SanDisk Micro SD card & installed at the time I upgraded to the Galaxy S8 on Verizon.

Yes, thats what i am waiting for. I unencrypted my micro sd 5 days ago and seems to be ok so far.
Also, read somewhere that encryption + apps moved to micro sd causes a lot of issues in S8.

I never moved any apps to myicro SD card bc it'll cause issues between this app phone and network. The app was not mentioned to be ran off an encrypted external drive. So I get that. Did the SD card actually encrypt correctly? I do not have a PC or another phone to check.
---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 PM ----------
My real concern is if the card actually encrypted properly and the system UI just needs to be updated to not continuously notify myself of the encrypted SD Card

The problem is actually a lot worse than you guys think. It's not just with encryption, initially that is what I thought as well. But, turns out the notifications don't happen when it's not encrypted. What's actually happening is the card is ejecting nonstop every time you get that notification and then remounting itself. This is an ongoing big widespread problem. Download 'SD Card Monitor' from Google Play and you'll soon find out that's exactly what it's doing. Complain here on the Samsung forum about this issue, it is now pages and pages long. Unfortunately I can't drop the link because I'm new here sooo just search samsung forums (samsung.community) yourself and it will be one thats above 15 pages long. To clarify this is happening even when it is not encrypted you just don't know it.

Yepppp. The more I'm looking into this issue though, the more it seems like an unfortunate hardware issue. It's certainly happening on many phones and probably many more, but not all of them. It's not any apps I've installed or anything, so your guess is as good as mine at this point. I've done every test imaginable and I'm coming up empty. Also, if you bother to waste your time calling Samsung they wont do a thing. They will just say to send your phone in and wait up to 14 days to get it back with either a new phone or a fix. If I know anything further I'll be sure to update this forum or you can just go to the Samsung one.
Your amazing! & I completely agree with your findings as I can not find a problem with the apps etc. Last year phones blowing up this year hardware software synergy problems what's next, the iris scanner is going to fry your retinas blind? ??

As I recall the s7s had similar problem with the SD card notifications and it was never clearly stated whether it was a hardware or firmware issue. Some carriers just hid the notifications and that was that. Samsung didn't do much of anything about it or acknowledge it in a proper manner. I've done about 20 tests so far and will be doing more eventually just kind of taking a break. It's just a very strange problem because the phones read the info just fine it just doesn't STAY mounted.
