Please some help?

If it doesn't work in any device its likely defective.
Most have warranties but I'm pretty sure the data is lost

I had a currupted 32 gig sd card and that was the only thing that fixed it
I tried to format it, and now it says "SD card blank or unsupported filesystem." And then it asks to re-format.
My computer doesn't even recognize it...

Does ANY device recognize it?
Cause, like I said, sounds like you have a dead card.
There is no such thing as a class 5 sd card. That may have soothing to do with your problem.

i meant class 6, sorry. Bad day
I recently upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 from 2.1.
After upgrading, my phone no longer detected my 32GB SD.
I spent a lot of time researching the issue and found that most people just went to a smaller card like I did.
I went out and bought a 4GB card.
After loading my phone up with apps and audio and images, 4GB was not enough.
So, here is how I resolved this...
I downloaded HPUSBDisk.exe which is an HP USB format tool.
Copied the content of my 4gb micro to my PC/Laptop.
I inserted my 32GB micro SD into a "micro sd USB adapter"...
Format the SD using the HP USB format tool (FAT).
Copy the contents from the 4GB to the 32GB.
When I placed the 32GB into the phone and powered it up it was now recognized.
weird, I own a 16GB card and never had problems with 2.3.3
actually never heard about this problem until today

16 GB are not really a issue.
I use a 32gb from Kingston and have no issues. ??? Think maybe it's not the memory size that is the problem. Maybe it got corrupted? I had that problem on a smaller card on a round of back to stock while playing around with ROMs and such. Formatted it on PC and all was fine... think it was 8? Was a while a go. But I've heard of it happening while updating, read about it after I had the issue with the card that came with my x10.

1. X10i officially supports cards by a capacity no more than 16 Gb. However, most cards 32 Gb work normally too.
2. A card can be formatted by standard facilities of Windows, it is important only, that a clustersize was 32 Kb

I have an X10a... but whatever.
When I flashed my 32gb SD using Win7, regardless of the cluster size, it would not work in my phone. Period.
I am NOT the only one who has had this problem nor am I the only one who found success in my method.
The 32gb I have in my phone right now, was formatted using the HP Tool at 16kb...

Yes but quite a few cards seem to have bad compatibility.
I'm curious if it's a certain class of cards that cause issues, or if it's certain vendors or brands? Do certain brands format them different and that causes the issue?
I researched what class was supported and bought a brand name (Kingston) that isn't high end but from a reputable business so I knew it wasn't fake. Bought a 32gb class 4 Kingston from Tiger Direct, popped it in and it worked fine. I put it in and tried it before transferring data to it.
I'm definitely not discounting the issue, but finding out WHY the issue is there is what I'm curious about.
i heard SDHC work the best but i'm idk the difference really, all i care about is the memory on the card

Having the same problem!
I just upgraded my X10a to 2.3.3 and it's not detecting my 8gb SD card, I re-intalled the 2.1 android and the card worked fine, then I upgraded it again to 2.3.3 and formated the card, didn't work... I don't know what to do now!
Having a similar problem!
Hi, I've been having a problem with mi 8GB SD card, the thing is that I just Upgraded my X10 to 2.3.3, but it's not detecting the micro SD, it was working fine till I did the upgrade, so I took the card and plug it into the PC, it is working, then I tried changing the fortmat, didn't work either, so I changed it back to Android 2.1 and It got it working again, I tried one more time to upgrade to Android 2.3.3 and the problem persists, all the apps and features are working just fine, but the phone it's kinda useless without the microSD...

The stock 8GB card in my x10 died quite fast.
They get scratched underneath easily.
Hate to bump up an old-ish thread. But I came across the following article and the pertinent quote from it is "We tested this card on some phones including Motorola Razr and Samsung Galaxy S2 and even on a year old Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 and it works fine"
So it looks like this old dog was still able to use a 64GB micro sdxc card.
But at 110$ USD (cheapest I've found so far)... might not be worth it yet.

Today an artice is placed in a computer magazine online, and translated by Google so excuse me if the tekst is not really in proper English;
The Sony Xperia Z is suffering from a persistent hardware failure, which is inserted SD cards unusable. This is evident at least from a increasing stream of complaints from users. The update to Android 4.2 seems no solution to offer.
Several online users do complain about a serious problem with SD cards in combination with the Xperia Z It turns out that memory cards, may suddenly become unusable. After a period of normal function, "Yesterday I received the message" SD card unexpectedly removed ", since then did not see the phone's SD card," writes user Omega Supreme on the T-Mobile forum. "The computer stops doesn't see the SD card"
The result is that these users have lost all data on the SD card. A conversation with duped Ray Jacobs teaches us that also bring different recovery programs for the 'corrupted' SD cards no solace. "The card is just deceased," said Jacobs.
Hardware Problem
Sony recognizes that it is a hardware problem, but calls it an 'external hardware error' where the company itself has no effect. This is evident from the email conversation Jacobs with Sony. The Xperia manufacturer says: "The hardware [SD card, ed] is not Sony, so there can not be responsible for it, unfortunately."
Sony last week began rolling out Android 4.2 to the Xperia Z, but this update has according to several people brought no solution to the problem. What does seem to confirm that it is a hardware problem is. The editors are currently no problems were detected with the device. The fault seems arbitrary to fall, possibly depending on the type of SD card and Xperia Z device.
ComputerTotaal.nl Sony has turned questions about the complaints, but the company has not made any response given here.

I had the same problem with my Xperia Z, then I removed the SD card, backed it up to my PC using SD card reader, format it, restored its content and returned it back to my phone, since then it works as charm.
From day 1 I had this issue with my kingston 32gig card. Randomly giving me the message that the card had been removed so I used to take it out and put it back and sometimes restart the phone. Till it completely died after some time. Now I have a TDK 16gig and till now no issue.

4.2 fixed the issue for me, or at least I think it did. I formatted to Exfat since the new update supports it natively, and I haven't had a single disconnected transfer or "unmounting" problem with my 32 GB Kingston.
I've had a 32gb Samsung SD card fried by the Xperia Z. Screen started flickering all over then fried the card.
Definitely a hardware fault as seems too many people are reporting this.

I never had any problems with my 64 GB SanDisk Ultra® microSDXC™ UHS-I card. After updating to Android 4.2.2, I did reformat it to exFAT, but it worked fine with FAT32 too.
I had this problem. Now my 32GB SD card dead. Replace with Sandisk Ultra 64GB.
I have 16 GB microSD card, class 10 from Kingston but never had this issue.

I wonder if this is a phone or a card issue. My Sandisk 32 GB card died, but my Samsung 64 GB never missed a beat.
Anyhow people, loads of people dont have an issue with an SD Card, but loads do.
Commenting by Sony its a Software issue doesn't make any sense.
So whats going on then?
My idea in this situation, due to USB and SD are placed next to eachother, there must ne some interference on the SD
My card died and lost all my pictures I memory reader on the PC can't find the card.

Hi.
I recently bought myself a 64GB class 10 Sandisk card from Amazon which I was going to use with my Note 3. When I first put it in I formatted the card in the phone. And then I took a few pictures and videos and all seemed to work fine.
The next day when I was taking some photos it suddenly switched over to the internal memory and I got the message that it was unable to save to SD card. I checked the gallery and the last picture i took was corrupted. So after this I tried taking the card out with the phone turned off, put it back in and started the phone. I was able to take some photos but when I was going to record a video it corrupted the file again.
After this I put the card in my PC and did a full format to exFAT and tried filling all ~59GB with pictures, videos and other files and from what I could see no files were corrupted.
Then I formatted it once again in my PC to exFAT and put it in the phone. After a few pictures it once again corrupted the files, even the camera app (default one) crashed at one point. Formatted the card in my phone again but same problem.
I then tried the card in my Gopro camera, first formatted it in the camera then recorded several videos in both 4K, 1440P, 1080P and took several pictures and everything was fine.
I'm not sure but the card seems to be working in other devices. Do you think the problem is the card or my phone? Before this I've used a 16GB class 4 Sandisk card with no problems at all.
Any tips on what I can do?
Thank you in advance!

It's stock and not rooted.
Could be a bad card, try unmounting and mounting the card again and see if that fixes it.

Yeah I've tried that a few times as well and it didn't help. But as I mentioned the card seems to work just fine it other devices. But in my note 3 files get corrupted.
Do you know of any program or any other way to test/confirm that it is the card that's bad?

Actually I do. I have used the HP SD Card Format Tool to fix cards in the past and it has worked pretty well. I also found this thread here on XDA that references it as well.

What write and read speeds were you getting in the PC? The Sandisk models are among the most faked models and that is by far the most frequent problem that I have seen. There have been also certain batches with problems, but Sandisk is always replacing those almost no questions asked if it is a genuine card.
I also have a 64GB Sandisk Ultra which was used about 1 year in my i9300 and now almost 4 months in the N9005 and so far I have never had any problems (but I am keeping an eye on the 128 GB models if those seriously go down in price).

I just ran a test in the program H2testw 1.4 and got these results:
Warning: only 60872 of 60874 MByte tested.
Test finished without errors.
You can now delete the past files *.h2w or verify them again.
Writing speed: 8.49 MByte/s
Reading speed: 17.5 MByte/s
H2testw v1.4
So the reading speeds seems fine I guess, it also filled the card with files and verified it.
I would assume that if it was a fake it would have slower speeds and maybe only 2-4GB of space?
I am using the SD card adapter that came with the SD card, and then I put it in a USB SD card adapter in a USB 2.0 port.
Is anyone else having problems with 64GB SD cards? It's as if my Note 3 wasn't compatible with the card since it is working fine in other devices and isn't a bad card according to the test I did.
Sorry .deleted.
Sounds like a hardware fault on the Note 3... I've been using both a sandisk and a samsung 64gb class 10 card on both my note 3's with no problems from the start...
Never had a problem with file corruption....
sdhc and sdxc are 2 different formats - sounds like you could use a 32gb sd card fine but it has issues with the 64gb sd card.... 64gb sd card is the newer format sdxc....
Unfortunately here you hit a snag... Unless the samsung sites list 64gb as ok to use on the Note 3 then they may just say to to warranty repairs.... If 64gb is the listed size (generally "up to ") you should have no problem. It does sound like your card reader doesn't like sdxc... Unless you can get your hands on another 64gb sd card to find out you not be able to use your 64gb sd card...

The sd card has been explained. Try reseating your card because it's only supposed to show when toy beset the card (so it's showing because it thinks you keep inserting a card).

It is supposed to show when you reboot, or if you remove the card. If it keeps showing after you clear it, something is causing it to remount (the phone thinks it has been removed and reinserted).
Right it is SUPPOSED to do it after a reboot...
