how come the sd card is unable to function when plugged onto the comp?? is there a way to make this work?
and how come when i tried moving things from my sd card onto the phone memory, it says 'insufficient permission?!"
my custom background image for go sms always gets messed up and removed once i sync my phone onto my computer. id have to manually set up the background everytime. i figured if i move these background images to the phone from the sd card, then i wouldnt have to repeat this over and over again...
any ideas??
little information about your setup could prove useful in troubleshooting.

I need to swap out an sd card and I copied everything off of it to a folder on my pc desktop. Turned off the USB first, then the tab itself. Changed the cards, powered up the tab, and copied everything in the transfer folder back to the new sd card and said Yes to All when asked about replacing files.
The tab started giving me an application not responding error (should've wrote down the exact wording) and was rebooting instead of powering off when I tried to shut it down. When it finally stopped, I put the old card back in and now am functional again.
Where did I go wrong? Didn't find anything in a search.
Tab rooted, with old card in, by z4root. Very little on the old card, no A2SD. Nothing that can't be replaced. Mainly looking for info so if I get a bigger card later.
Thanks a bunch.
what desktop OS? if windows, make sure hidden files/folders are visible when you copy everything over. If you have a card reader, that would be a faster and cleaner way also.
Hi am hoping someone can help as this is driving me nuts!
I store all pics and music on storage card but today am getting messages to say phone memory is full. Using file explorer i can see under my Device that the storage card is now appearing there as well as separately as a storage card....have connected phone to laptop though and cant see it listed if i explore the files that way.
transferred all pics from card to laptop, and reformatted card via phone and it disappears from 'my device' but then as soon as i access it it reappears. Obviously this is what is filling the phone memory....how do i get rid of it ?
any help would be greatly appreciated
What OS?
What ROM?
Are you installing apps to internal or external?
Have you installed something that can check teh sizes of your folders etc?
os 5.2.21864
ROM 1.43.206
havent installed any apps recently. only thing done recently was active sync because i had taken some new pics which are stored on storage card.
i just cant work out why the storage card has transferred itself into the phone memory.
the storage card appears in file explorer under storage card but is also appearing under the my device tab. it just seems to be copying itself across for some reason
Hi guys
I could not install Zune yet, as i am away from my home PC.
One question, can one view / save stuff on the SD card , like wallpapers, and photos etc?
My phone keep prompting that it is running out of disc space....
I am not sure if there is a file manager or something like that?
I cannot view or see my SD card from the pc?
Thanks alot
The SD card must be on in the phone during first boot as the phone uses it as its "main memory" plugin it in after the first boot will do nothing as the phone won't recognize it, if you wan't to use the sd card with the phone you must do a reset while the SD card is in the phone
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
unknown cause...
So my phone flipped out the other day and froze up a couple of times and when it finally got back into android the setup wizard came up as if i had just flashed the rom im using dorimanx v7.1 but all of my stuff was still there. Then i got an error about the sd card not being readable. It kept saying this then it just stopped recognizing it all together. I was able to format the card in cwm but it just says sd card error anytime i try to access it thru cwm and if i put another micro sd from my camera in it wont recognize that either. Since i cant use my sd cards i cant re flash any roms. Could this be a rom problem or is my sd card slot fried? i really hope its not fried because then the phone is basically useless since i cant use data without it freezing and now not being able to take pictures or listen to music makes it just a phone with a big screen. By the way if i put the card in and try to access my gallery it stops responding and has to be closed every time.
Would you tried in your computer? If you use Windows you can try MiniTools, maybe fix MBR can fix the problem.
