Help required...SD card read error.. - Vibrant General

Hi,
Yesterday I saw toxic 7 ROM and went ahead to flash it. I odin'ed my phone to stock before flashing this rom. After flashing this rom I restored my apps using titanium back up and re-booted. It worked fine for a while and then every thing went downhill from there. I have started feeling the ROM was slow and getting FCs on many apps. So I flashed Bionix 1.3.2 test ROM. It was also giving me FCs on any apps trying to read sd card. So I odin'ed again to stock and flashed Bionix and still getting sd card read error. Strangely if I use file explorer or root explorer I am able to see the files on my sd card. For example I can see a music file thru file explorer but music player can't read it. If I try to play a music file from explorer I get a sd card error.
Can anybody help me?????
Thanks in advance.

never had any problems with copilot at all, even after changing through multiple roms its always worked.
If you still havent got it working try deleting the copilot folder off your SD card (save a bakup on your pc though) and run copiot to redownload all the files, maps etc.
Hope this helps
I had problems with Co-Pilot as well, I had to delete the folder from my SD card then do a complete reinstall.
Now it works
Have removed it from sd card down loaded again but still unable to get it to run as before I can see both files on sd card also for some reason I now have the voice commands in my mp3 files. I have also used a new sd card. I will try again see if I have missed a step out I loaded it up 3weeks ago with no issues the phone is still on 1.5 and has not been rooted as yet that may change if I am unable to fix this.

Can't install apps to sd

Just realized I can't install apps to SD like angry birds or minisquadron. I figured I need to unmount SD and then load and it works.
Anyone know how I can fix this issue? I tried searching with no luck

are you getting error 18? if you are, i had the same problem today and i searched it on google. people said to delete the file smdl2tmp1.asec in the /sdcard/.android_secure/ directory. unfortunately for me, i didnt have the file so another solution suggeted what you did, unmount sd card, install/update app, mount sd and that worked for me
Once you unmount, install, remount you can then move to SD.

i used to be able to load these items on first try without unmounting.
I think the issue lies with flashing so many roms in the fast few weeks. Going to 322 and back to 318 must have written something to my sd card.
when a new rom comes out, i will move my crap off my sd card, format and try again. That will probably fix it.
i have tried deleting android.secure, data on my external sd, no help.
i also don't have that file on my phone to delete.

my music on ext. sd not found on any rom but stock

the music is on my ext sd card but no matter what rom it's on it won't show up there. I did flash back to a stock rom and it still is there and shows up and works just fine. Is there any way to fix this?
Have you tried unmounting your sd remove it. Then put it back in? This happend to me recently and thats how I fixed it. Also plug your phone up to a pc and see if it can read the files from your sd through the phone.

Try re-scan media from the market. Basically we want to force a rescan of both sd cards

Tried both ideas and they didn't work. I was able to pull up file in file manager and play through there but that's a pain in the ass
Hmm, thats odd. Are you using the stock player? And have you tried downloading different players from the market, or flashing one to test it? What build version are the ROMs you are using also?
I have tried about 8 different roms. My current one is Toxic7.xwjs8
Kernel version 2.6.32.9 OverStock-1.2GHz-2.4.1 #8
I have tried the players that flash on the rom ,I've tried dl win amp. I even thought that it may have been an issues since the music was synced with the kies 2.2 update so i formatted the sd card and put it all back on again and still nothing
try putting it in the int sd...
I know that works but I don't want it using my internal memory plus I have to much music
any other ideas
Idk what else could be. Does your phone actually read the card at all If you go to storage in settings? Have you tried a different sd yet?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
You have got to settings on your media players, click where it says scan folders. Select the. External sd. After that refresh the app. That's it. I have a full 16GB of music and its able to read it.

Trying to replace 16gb stock sd card with a new 32gb card - having some issues

Okay so I got a new 32gb sd card in, and I'm trying to get converted over to it but I am having some problems.
I mounted my original 16gb card to my PC and copied EVERYTHING over to a folder on the PC. I then attached my 32gb card, formatted it fat32 and copied everything from the folder I made that had the contents of my 16gb card in it.
I booted it and am getting all kinds of FC's - from Swype, to Gmail, etc. I can't even use Gmail actually. So I put my original 16gb card back in place, with nothing done to the files on the card, and I am getting the same FC's on it.
Running ICS SFR 1.2 and Genocide 2.0 if that info is needed. Can anyone give me ideas on how to get this sorted? Thanks!
Journaling on or off? If off, It could just be coincidental that it corrupted as you were switching cards.

I don't know how to check that.

I got my original card working mostly okay by going into CWM and restoring system settings. I had done a full backup on 9/27.
The only error I occasionally get is for google framework or some such. At least the phone is usable for now. I will try again tomorrow to convert to the new card.

Thanks - I think I figured it out on my own with the CWM restore.
With the original card in the phone, I booted into CWM, into backup and restore, then advanced backup, then I choose my most recent full CWM backup file, then "restore system"
That got rid of all the Gmail and Swype errors that were the most persistent and obnoxious. I was still getting the google process error once after every reboot. I re-formatted my 32gb sd card and loaded the files I copied onto my PC onto it. It then booted up and only gives the google process error once like the stock card was doing.
I went back into CWM and chose "restore system" again and after it rebooted I get that google process error rarely. Seems like the first time I go into certain apps, but not all of them. Seems like I'm good to go now with a 32gb card in.
Thanks for the replies guys
Edit: Just did the sd card upgrade for my wife's phone. Zero errors at all lol. Works flawlessly for her and we have the same exact ROM, rooted, and Kernel. Oh well, at least that upgrade was easy!

galaxy S4 microsd card problem

Hello
I have SanDisk 64gb microsd. I have not done anything to the phone and now periodically the phone stops reading the 64gb card .It does not say unmounted just when I check gallery the photos are not there and I have to restart the phone.
I have a rooted 4.3 ROM..The only thing I can think of is ES file explorer potentially caused issues. I noticed things acting weird after I used it when I do heavily.
Please help. Any and all advice welcome. Thanks
Tried to re flash a nandroid still issues. I noticed in general my touchwiz is running so slow. I flashed sacs red theme about a month ago. Not sure if that had anything to do with it. Should not have.
It will reread it when I remount it or reboot. Not sure specifically what is causing it though.

Have you tried searching the forums for sdcard fix? Google it? There have been issues with 4.4 and sdcard reading issues. Also downloading foldermount from the playstore has helped others with issues. If all else fails reinstall rom.

I searched on Google and there is not really a concise answer as to why this happens. It is a very ambigious issue, however; it seems to be a reoccuring issue with SanDisk cards and 4.4 KitKat ROMs.
What I did was completely flush out and re-installed both custom recovery and my ROM to 4.2.2
It is disappointing because I really like my Samsung Galaxy S4 phone and you'd think upgrades mean better quality product when it has not. 4.4 KitKat ROM is not that good. I don't like both CM and TW versions of KK. One feature I do not like with TW KitKat is the inability to hide icons. There are also issues with battery drain and free hotspot mod.
I don't know what is going on. When I plug my phone into the computer I can access the SD card. When I check the phone it is not reading the SD card. Don't know what the problem is.
Have you tried a different SD card? That would help you determine if it is specific to the card or potentially a phone issue.
What I will do is try and format the SD card with the phone, then put everything back on. So far, I have isolated it to ESFile explorer. Initially I did not update the apk and thought that would work. It did not.
Here's what has happened:
I use ESFile explorer to access the SD card. Then when I went into clockworkmod, I tried to delete a nandroid copy I made. It says 'failed to delete'.
Then the ROM and sdCard do not work correctly anymore, so I have to wipe and re-flash an old nandroid.
Makes me wonder if something is corrupted in the SD Card. Everything used to work fine, but now whenever I access the SD Card with ESFile explorer, even the old version of it, it causes issue.
There is a problem with some Sandisk SD cards. Evidently there was a bad batch. I had some of the same issues. My card was bad. I went to Sandisk's website and they replaced it for free. I was without my card for a week but I got a new one and everything seems to be working fine now.
Can you explain how you did this ? So an update on my situation. I can read the sd card but it will not format and nothing can be written to the card. I tried using recovery and touchwiz to format and it fails.
Can access what is on there but cannot write or format anymore. Any ideas ? At this point I swapped to a new SanDisk card I had lying around. Don't know what to do with the old card

I assume you are asking me how I got my card replaced. I did some research and found the issue mentioned here on XDA as well as on the internet. I went to Sandisk's website, http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/list/kw/microsd microsdhc/, and did some more research. I finally contacted their customer service and they told me the process for getting the replacement shipped. If I were you I would just contact their customer service on their website and let them run you through the process.
