Hi there.
I have a 4GB sd card for my SGS SC-02b. Whenever i insert it into the phone the message at the notification area appears saying "sd blank or has unsupported file system". I tried formatting it and tried to mount it but its not working, i m not getting any error message while mounting or formatting, its just not working. I tried reinserting the sd card but still the same.
Looking for some kind suggestions

Is your sdcard locked by that little plastic knob on your card?
what files system are you formatting with recommend you use this app to format externally in your computer with a card reader

thanks for the tip, its working great now
Well, its not working again. It was working for a while, then i had to root my SGS so i removed SD card, rooted my SGS and then reinserted Sd card, now its saying Damaged SD card you have to format it, when i format it, no error message appears and nothing happens and notification area is still saying Damaged SD card.
Any suggestions??
What brand is it, dont tell me its a unbranded one, or a cheap ebay one, it could be a fake one, use you pc to format it fat or use the sd formatter, when you put it into the phone, unmount it then format again using the phone before use.
I have a 32gb adata class 2, 32gb lexar class 10, and many 8gb and 16gb from kingston, toshiba and sandisk in class 2 to class 6, all works.
Connect phone with USB cable in mass storage mode .
Format the SD card then run scandisk/error checking on the card .

Please guys help me to fix my 16GB memory that always deletes files(some files) inside my memory card.
Everytime I try to format using HP formatter it says 'device is protected'.
Please post some advice to make it work again. I still believe there's a solution.
Thanks in advance!

your title is not the same as ur content...
btw, by any chance have you set a password for your sd, if not are u using a card adapter? if yes then in the adapter unlock the SD

I dont see anything wrong with the title.
I can format the sd using any other tool except to HP formatter.
And yes everytime i transfer my files from 4GB memory card, after removing from the computer the contains of 16GB are not equally the same as to my 4GB sd. For example i copied my titanium(folder) back up from 4GB and transfer it to 16GB the folder becomes empty when.try restoring. Even my music files are automatically deleted after placing the 16GB to my phone. Thats the situation.
But the other files remain inside.

I did not use my memory card for 10 months, I have some data in it, but I lost the data but the memory card is still working. Can I get the data back?
Not happy...
Today I tried my SanDisk 64gb sdxc card in my note 10.1... I've been using it in my 5.3" galaxy note for months. It mounted and read just fine in the Note 10.1, so I copied all the data off it, planning to use a 32gb card in my other note.
After I copied the data, I put the card back in the Note 10.1, and it said "blank card or unsupported file system"
To cut a long story short, the card is now corrupted and can't be formatted in either windows or the original Note.
So, if you're using this card in your original Note, DON'T put it in the 10.1!

Format it with FAT 32.
Ditto: format with FAT32, most SDXC cards are formatted ExFAT and that's not compatible with the Note 10.1. Use the tablet or a third party utility to format if you're a Windows user since Win7 wants to format using ExFat rather than FAT32 (Mac OS X can format large cards in FAT32). Drawbacks? FAT32 only supports individual file sizes up to 4 gigs per file.
I've tried formatting it, it's toasted. Windows disk manager says it's 30.6gb, but won't format it because it says it's write protected... Neither of my notes will format it, they both say it's blank, and when I try to format they say it's currently being checked... I even tried SD Formatter from www.sdcard.org, and it says the card is write protected...

this may sound kind of dumb, but if you use an SD card adaptor for your micro SD, did you check the lock slider on your SD hard? i was not able to format my microSD card on my note and was having the same issues with the write protect on my computer but i realized later on that my lock slider kept being pushed into the lock position whenever i slide my card into my reader. so, i unlocked it and carefully slid my card into my reader to make sure it doesn't lock. i formatted my card to fat32 on my computer using EASEUS Partition Master (http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm). it's easy to use and free. works great

I did the same, don't forget to set the cluster size to 32 for a 64gb card. Works great.

Yes, I've tried it in 2 different card readers. I just tried EASEUS Partition Master and it can't do anything with the card either, the system reports the card as 30.6MB unallocated.

I used the microSD to SD converter which came with my Sandisk and plug it directly into the notebook's SD slot.
I would say try another computer (or notebook).
After the latest update, the Note 10.1 reads and formats exfat SD chips just fine.
Ooooooo! THX just ordered one..

Ahhhhh, sorry, didn't know that ........ Hope You can save the card somehow .......

There have been a number of reports of broken 64gb cards that will only format to 30.6gb, check this http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/550328-64gb-cards.htmldiscussion.
I think that 30.6gb is what you normally would get from a 32gb card.

I've had same problem with sdxc but after firmware update SD works ok.
i've not had a problem with my sandisk 64gb sdxc card
I tosted a mounth ago my first 64GB SDXC the same day because I was not aware of what I should use and do to make it compatible with most devices.
First of all, the card is SDXC with exFAT, for that you HAVE to use an adapter compatible for that card, like Mobilelite 3G.
I put that card in my old card reader and after try to copy into the card a file ISO of 6GB the card crashed.
After that the card was not recognized.
Second mistake, I used not appropriate Software to format the card, from CMD in W7, Gparted Live, to many other.
You HAVE to use specific tools like FAT32Format or MiniTool Partition because this tools are made to do not delete the "Protected Area" which is needed to let working the card.
so,
step 1; Open the Blister Package and put the card into compatible SDXC Card Reader.
step 2; Format with FAT32 Format.
After that the card will work fantastically with ANY device and no complain at all.
Now I got my second 64GB SDXC formatter in Fat32 and my OLD HTC Touch Diamond 2 see the card with full capacity of 60GB!
Amazing! Right?
If its a new card you should have a warranty get it replaced.
I had a similar proble with a 16 gb card on my optimux 2x and from Sandisk itself. When I inserted it recognized and then the card was fried fortunately it was replaced by the seller in couple of days I still have the old card as they did not bother to take it back.
That time i thought it was a fake

Ok, so in this case you can do this way;
step 1; Open the Blister Package and put the card into compatible SDXC Card Reader.
step 2; Use h2testw to test the card if it's fake.
step 3; when you know is good format with the right tool.
They do not bother you to take the card back? Strange? And the second one is good?
