[Q] Reboot S4 corrupt SDcard - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Anyone else getting this? Every time I reboot my galaxy S4 device I get the error notification that my SD card is corrupt and requires re-formatting. I go ahead and try a reboot and everything is fine after that and all my files are present and accesible on the SD card.
Every time I want to reboot I end up having to reboot twice to get the SD card back.
Canadian device, all stock and no root. Using a Sandisk 64gb SD card.

I had such problem once on my SGS3 , sdcard wasn't seated well , could be something else but doesn't hurt to try.

I'll pull it out and check the pins and try to make sure it goes back in perfect. Thanks for the suggestion.

I was having problems with my sd card when I had custom kernel just deleted all the hacks and removed super su. Odin back to stock did a factory reset rerooted froze updates restored all my apps from backup and all's good. No more problems. Guess I'm staying away from all that kernel stuff for now.

[Q] Big problem! (SOLVED)

Using nightly 150 and everything was going well. Now the nook can't quite get through an entire boot process. The screen goes blank and I have to reboot/plug into charger/unplug/replug. When trying to restore back to an old backup it gets about halfway through restoring system before the screen goes black and may or may not reboot. I have been trying to fix this for 3 days now. I cant get through a whole restore process without this happening. I need help. Thank you in advance for any ideas/suggestions.
EDIT: I put on a new anti-glare screen protector just minutes before this started. Could that have anything to do with this? Four corners being pushed down or something like that. Just thought I'd throw that in there.
In CWM, format System, Data, and Cache. Then install the latest Nightly, and from there re-flash CWM. Then restore the backup of data.

I have tried this from recovery and it does not get through the install before shutting off on me. Should I try using a CWM SD card? Do you think that would make a difference?
Definitely try a CWM sd card. Make the sd card and copy the "clockworkmod" folder from your current sd card to the CWM sd card. From there restore the backup.
Edit: Try taking off the Screen Protector first.
Solved! I think it might have had something to do with my charger. The base of the cable is frayed and it may have not been getting charged. So the battery would die before it was getting through the install. Never gave me the battery low indication though til today. Thank you iKing for your fast response. Calling 1800thebook to see if they still send out new ones!
Alright, Congrats on getting it to work. And yes, they should give you a free cable. They did mine when my cable was screwed. Good Luck!
Gotta be the worst cable ever made!

[Q] Clockworkmod recover v6.0.4.4 Backup Issues

I just rooted and installed Clockworkmod v6.0.4.4 on my Spring GS4 yesterday. For some reason it's saving my backup on the internal device storage rather than my SD card which is an issue... I can't figure out how to move the file to my PC or my SD card. Any reason it is using the internal storage rather than the SD card? Would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
Are you selecting backup to external SD card?

Yes, I am choosing ext sd when I go in manual mode. Also, if I try it using ROM Manager it reboots into recovery and uses internal storage by default... I was able to move the file to SD after the fact but still don't understand what is up.

I had an issue just like that yesterday but I couldn't move backups so I booted into recovery after backing up with tb,wiped everything reinstalled my rom and that seem to work fine after that sometimes things just ask funny and you just got to start over.
I have been using philz cwm and his has the external as sdcard1
just a thought but maybe there is evidence in the backup log?

I was in current clockwork mod I belive I was in firmware 4.3 the one before mja or might of been mja not to for sure bout that and I have no idea what support x is so I guess my answer is no on that question and seems the only thing that fixed my issue was a factory reset in cwm and when I did that I lost my root but still had cwm and after I set phone up I was on wifi working fine and noticed I had and mja update so I updated that on now wifi won't connect and keep getting that F'n little Grey shield in notification bar saying security issue but that is a different can of worms just figured I'd explain my whole night last night you wanted a cookie how about a pie my g talk is [email protected] please help I really want to start my flash binge

defy+ unusable due to reboots

Well folks
last chance for this phone. as now bloody fed up of it..
I am using ginger m2s or whatever its called rom
And now the only way I can boot the damn phone is either without the sdcard in or with the android-secure folder deleted...
If I move just one app to sd card then forget rebooting phone as its thats bad and will simply not boot up, well it does but soon as phone is ready it reboots again..
Tried 4 different sd cards and same result...
does anyone have any ideas at all as to why this is happening?
regards

If it's on bootloop, you can try clearing cache.
Did that many times before posting...and if was cache related it wouldn't matter if android-secure file was present on sd card...

If you haven't already, try another ROM and see if the problem still exists. Maybe a lower class card might solve the problem. If not, then it's mostly the hardware which is causing that.

[Q] problems with sacs custom rom

Can somebody help me out here. Loaded Sacs and had some problems with sd card. Would not write ANYTHING to sd. Formatted SD thinking that would fix the issue. Didnt work. Made a backup, wiped everything, then restored. Now it boots, all processes stop, then it restarts. Not sure what to do next.
Got it fixed, kind of. Went back into CWM, wiped everything (again), used advanced restore option, restored only the boot and system. Now everythig works except SD card. Dont know what to do. Open camera and it will take a picture, but will not save to SD card or internal memory. Like everything is write protected or something.
Can anyone help???? Please

Sounds like something Folder Mount in the Play Store will fix it.
Trying it. Said it found a faulty item and it will attempt a fix. Rebooting now to see if it works.
BAM!!!!!!!! Fixed it............ Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!!
Glad I could help. Happy flashing.

Did I broke my SD slot?

I've decided to instal custom ROM. After some time i has cant acces my sd card data, but it was shown in setting. When i tried to enter options, the settings app crashed. I did reboot, of course, and it disappeared. Now I cant use any sd card on my phone. Did a hard reset, but it is not detected even on TWRP! Any ideas, guys?

If TWRP can't see it, I am afraid it's broken but Try to remove it and replace several times, nothing to loose now
The SD slot is very fragile on x play, I am always very careful whit it

Dont know but to be sure that you need repair : try an other sdcard on your phone, or try your sdcard on other phone, may be it's only your card
I've tried this card on other phone (moto g3) and works fine...
Same issue with me too..
Tried lineage 13.1,14.1 and spectrum too. Still it's not detecting SD card. It seems it happened after the latest security patch update. I also tried stock 5.1 yet card is not recognised.
