Constant reboot if SD card is in slot - Atrix 4G General

So, no idea what causes this. But the phone was fine till this Saturday night, it died Sunday morning, I charged it back to 100%.
Ever since then, when is start the phone it will boot up, on the notifications bar it will have "Preparing SD Card" - "Checking for Errors" and then reboot itself. And do it over and over again.
I took out the SD Card and put it back in, same issue.
Phone boots up properly without the SD card in there.
I haven't put anything on the SD card for around 2-3 weeks since I last synced my music. And music and some pictures is all there is on the SD Card. All applications are installed to Internal phone memory.
I am lost, what can I do? I can't even format the SD card if the phone doesn't stay on.

try formatting the card via pc with a memory card reader.

Had a similar problem. Had to put the sdcard in a card reader. Found some corrupt files on the card. Copied what I could to the pc, reformated the card, and copied everything back to card. Worked fine afterwards.

Strange problem with TyTn

Hello everybody, I'm new here and I'm having a strange problem with my Hermes.
Sometime ago I downloaded the slide2unlock cab and installed it. Then I removed it for some reason. Last week I inserted my sd in the computer and it asked me to format the card. There was no way to get into the sd and I lost all my data.
Now, after having formatted my sd, the device is continually hanging and when I put it in standby it always turns on automatically. Most of the times it also doesn't recognize the sd card and I have to reboot.
Can anyone help me, please?
Did you reformat the sd card FAT32? Its the preferred format but they seem to come formatted FAT by default.
Check to see if the sd card is still being detected by the PC, if it isn't then its time to get a new sd card.
Had you installed any apps on the sd card that might be causing problems.
Not from the sd card but I have had apps that, though I'd installed to the sd card, had installed the exe file onto my Hermes and a heap of data files onto the card.
Otherwise, might be time for a Hard reset...
Tanks for the fast answer. The sd card is formatted to FAT (not FAT32) and now is working in the computer.
Regarding programs installed in the sd, the problem could be exactly the slide2unlock, but I've removed it sometimes ago.
Only other thing to do wopuld be to do a hard reset. !st backup up your contacts to the sd card with spb backup(has a demo of 5 backup/re-installs). Needs to registered but you can at least backup contacts and messages then re-install after HR.
Hard reset should fix all your problems.
Cheers...

HD2 can't find SD card

Hello,
I have an HTC HD2 running CoreDroid 1.6, but when I ejected my microSD card, to put some music on it, it suddenly (accidently) got formatted by a program I was running. Now, when I put it back in, the phone can't recognize it anymore.. It does recognize it as an SD card, but the phone still says there isn't enough space on the phone.
And when I put in the SD card when the phone is off, I turn it on but the phone doesn't get passed the startup screen, it just stays there forever. But when I eject the micro SD card and restart the phone, then it starts up just fine.
Can anyone help?
have you tried formatting the card ?
I did format it again, yes. But no such luck.
I just did an update. I updated to HD2 V3. But it still wont start up when the microSD card is in.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I've already tried a reinstall of the coredroid 1.6 rom, but my microsd card still isn't working. The phone can find the card perfectly, but it still doesn't work.
You have more then likely not formatted it properly.
Use Panasonic SDFormatter...
Format: Full/Overwrite
Size Adjustment: ON
I bought a new MicroSD card today and put it in the phone, and it's still not working. But i'll try that program.
I formatted the MicroSD card using that program. Still not working. The phone does recognize it, but it just doesn't add up the space to the system and the phone doesn't start up while the card is in.
Hi did you resolve this?
I installed WinMo 6.5 with some themes and now my SD card is not seen on the phone

[Q] SD Card on S4 suddenly stopped working

Hello
About 12hrs ago, everything on my Samsung Galaxy S4 phone was working perfectly fine.
I was using my camera to record a video when the playblack crashed and the phone suddenly did a restart. When the phone booted back up again, the phone could no longer read the SD Card. I did several restarts and took out the SD Card and put it back in again and still the phone refuses to see the SD Card.
I know the problem ISN'T the SD Card because when I put the SD card into an adapter and plug it into my computer, the computer can read and see everything on the card.
Any one else have this problem and know how to solve it?
My phone isn't rooted or hacked
Thanks!

-Go to setting/storage and check what is the status for the external SD. May be it is not mounted.
- second check if you get any other SD card to test the phone behavior with it.

Save your SD card content to your computer and reformat it direct from the phone. If it is successful revert back the data et voilĂ !
if not Ok it is something wrong with the memory card itself...
I have similar problem. Two days ago suddenly I got message SD card unexpected removed. That puzzled me because I didn't touch SD card at all. Turned phone off and on and seemed to be ok since yesterday. I had SD card removed message again and phone doesn't see any card anymore. I tried bunch of SD cards and no luck. Reset my phone, reinstalled firmware and still nothing. Opened even my phone check sim and SD card board connector.
All my SD card tested, formatted on PC. Any ideas?

SD Card showing Unsupported and Unmounting automatically on Android, fine in laptop

Hi,
My Sandisk Ultra 32GB microsd card is not getting mounted on my Moto X Play from yesterday on. It was working perfectly before that.
Problem in Detail: Yesterday when i tried to play some music only I realized that its not getting mounted. I tried removing the card and reinserting it. But it's not showing up any notification. When I went to 'Storage and USB' settings suddenly after reboot, its showing 'Unsupported' for a minute and is getting unmounted automatically.
Possible Cause: One of my friend connected my phone with USB cable to his laptop day before yesterday for transferring data. I dunno exactly whether its infected or he didn't eject it properly.
What all I Tried: Initially, I tried connecting it to my laptop using Card Reader. Fortunately, everything was fine inside the system. The file system FAT32, all the data it had, and no memory was unallocated. Afterwards I did a quick format and a complete format as well, with file system FAT32. Both didn't help anyway. Then I installed mini tool partition wizard. But haven't done anything with that yet.
Kindly help me with this ASAP.
Can you use your SD card with the phone ?I have the same problem - my sd card is not recognized by my MXP. There was some speculation that the SD card slot is not working properly or just damaged however all SD cards I have are working fine just nor with my phone.As of today there seems to be no fix to this bug.

I have tried this SD card in my friend's phone and it is working fine.
Afterwards, tried formatting the card from that phone, my laptop, (quick & complete with different names) and the tool "sd card formatter" (erased everytihng).
I even tried a factory reset of my phone.
Nothing helps. Really frustrated

Continuous restarts - new micro SD card effects :(

Hello everyone, dire need of help here!
I got a new Micro SD card 64 GB Strontium for the phone and formatted it to use as Internal Memory - all previous phones I have been using SD card as portable storage, this is the first time I am using it as internal memory.
It worked fine for 2 days but suddenly yesterday all the photographs folders disappeared from the Gallery app (DCIM folder). I restarted the phone a couple of times but no luck - first some thumbnails disappeared, and then the entire folder!
Since this morning, the phone get restarted continuously, non-stop, while the SC card is inside the phone. If I remove the SD card, the phone works normally. So I am unable to use phone when SD card is inside - unable to copy all the files from the SD card onto a laptop even since the phone restarts before I can do anything on the connected laptop.
What do you think is the problem? How to resolve it?
How to recover all the pics and files on the SD card if I have to format it?

I would try to recover pics by mounting SD-CARD on PC. I've had SD-CARDs go bad a few times.
