Okay so if your sprint galaxy S4 gives an error that "SD card removed" "insert sd card" then I have a quick fix for you.
This fix will only work if you have Microsoft Windows XP and above.
Step one!
Open up a file explorer.
Step 2!
plug in your SD card and make sure that the computer recognizes it.
Step 3!
If SD card is not recognized then unplug and try checking if it is recognizable on any Linux Distrobution.
If the card is recognizable:
Right Click the SD card and then click properties
Then go to tools and click Check Now under Error Checking
Click run when the dialogue apears and wait
When complete, eject the SD card from the system tray and then plug into your device. It will temporarily fix the problem. It worked for my phone and it may work for yours. If you have any issues related to this problem try this and see if it helps. Used to have to use this whenever our hard drives would fail during a class project. This Error Checking Does Not Have to find any errors. As long as it says it is completed this should work.

I got the 16GB Card with my phone. I first(before first use) removed the SD card and re-inserted it. Then I started the phone.
The settings show "No SD Card". Also, the documents tab shows "SD card is full or missing". Its not detecting the 16 GB Card came with it.
When I plugged this 16 GB to my Laptop using a card reader, it works.
Also, when I inserted a 1 GB Card to the phone, it works.
Is there anybody who face the same?
Can anybody help?
First, is the phone connected by USB in Disk Drive mode when you're trying to look at the contents of the card? If so, the phone can't see the SD card when you're connected that way. If that's not the case, then follow these steps:
1) Put the card back in the reader on your PC, copy everything off the card into a backup folder
2) Put the card back in the phone, and use the "Format SD Card" option in settings-tools
3) Once it's formatted that way, connect the phone to the PC via USB, choosing the "Disk Drive" option
4) Copy everything back on to the card that you had saved in that folder on your PC
No. Its not connected to PC.
Also, I cant format the card when it is not detected by the phone.
Then still copy everything off it like I described, and then format it via the card reader on your pc instead of on the phone.
The stock cards in the HD2 are known to often have issues like this...if these steps don't resolve the issue then the next step is to probably just replace it.
Sent from my HD2 using XDA app
There are some weird WinMo bugs about storage card, have been around for years, and not fixed.
Look at your device with file manager. There may be a folder in main memory called "Storage Card", that isn't really the storage card, and the real storage card is now labelled "Storage Card 2" or something, so links to it won't work.
With file manager, rename the fake "Storage card" folder to anything else. (You can't delete it just yet.)
Then reboot the device. After the reboot, the real storage card should be named "Storage Card" again, and now you can delete the imposter folder.
I don't know if your problem is related to that one, but important to get that info out, for those not aware of it.
(Especially likely to happen on HD2, when connected to the computer with the disk drive option. When so connected, the real storage card cannot be read. Yet, if the system wants to save a file or cache to "Storage Card", it creates a new folder by that name. Later, when no longer connected to the computer, the real storage card is back, it has been renamed, as the new folder took its real name. To get it back right, follow the procedure above.)
Another possibility just occurred to me. Seems rather obvious, but it has happened to me.
Are you sure you have the card inserted correctly--all the way in?
The first time I reinserted the card after taking it out, booted up my phone, there was no storage card. I just had not inserted it correctly. That is very easy to do on this phone, you think it is inserted all the way, and it is not.
If you haven't experimented with that yet, you really should do so. Make sure the card is pushed all the way in.
Hi,
I have Sandisk 2gb SD card which comes with hd2, i installed WP7 but it seems that WP7 can not recognize my SD because when i put SD in my computer nothing is changed in my SD even i tested it, I put some files in SD and reinstall WP7 so as far as i understand wp7 has to format my SD put its specific partition but guess what nothing is changed in my SD even that files remain in the same place...
So i tried to format SD my self with FAT32 and FAT and even i delete my SD partition and none of them make WP7 format and make partitions on my SD card...
P.S-1 My SD card is working i tested it wit my computer by formatting copy some files there so read and write is ok.
P.S-2 WP7 booted correctly in this situation i mean when SD is in device the only problem i have is WIFI can not find any router when SD is in device, when i took it out wifi start working, why i'm saying this because i aware of compatibility issue of WP7 with some SD cards where it reboots if it is not compatible .
same thing happens to me, I am now trying to reinstall (again) wp7, and it seems it got stuck at the DFT screen..... previously it booted almost inmediately. maybe it is partitioning it?, for those of you guys that sd card works, wp7 boots inmidiately?
Yeah SD cards makes crash wifi !
And i cannot use it... Flash WP7 with formated SD cards NTFS but still doesn't works !
First time i istalled WP7 without SD card and when i afterward inserted card nothing was changed. Then i made Factory Reset from Settings menu and my phone started to restart over and over from point where DFT banner shws first time after loader. Then i went to the loader and as i can remember then i re-selected preferred boot source and then for me all was good. Now it show 1.6GB free space with my original HD2 SD card.
i am having axactly the same trouble. i have a san disk 2 gb too. it'll be enough for me but wp7 does not recognize it. i installed both sd-card inserted and sd-card not inserted. i booted with sd-cad and without sd-card. i tried every posibility but no result
reserved space is %95 on zune and it tells me there is no disk space. so i cant start using it full functionally and it makes me really sad
any help is appreciated. thanks.

I have exact the same problem.. i found some sort of "solution". but it is a bit strange. when I pull out the sd card, boot my phone in magldr, insert my sd card and boot wp7, It shows the normal storage instead of the 15 mb.
but when I try a normal reboot without going to magldr, its going back to the 15 mb. and when I try to sync my phone with zune,(with the put-sdcard-in-phone-when-in-magldr-solution) everything goes slow.
Dont know if you (or someone else) already found a "good" solution?
greetz
all of you guys have an incompatible SD card, sorry guys, will need to buy a new one, its a bit of a lottery as that too might not work and dispite what some on here say its impossible to recomend anything.
only advice i can give is get a card that class 2 or 4 and dont spend money on a card that you may end up using for a tiny paperwight
is my sd card gone?
After I successfully flash WM7, I juz realize that my pc not recognize my sd card when i connect my phone to d computer. First, i thought becoz of some bug of wm7 so i try to flash android back. I took my sd card put into a card reader but it still not recognize my sd card. Is it gone?
What about the sd unlock tool that xbmod released ? try a few nokia devices or a device which takes sd card to see if you can unlock... Check out 96edwy video on YouTube on how to unlock after wp7
I have the same problem like arrirang .
When I put my SdCard to CardReader, windows 7 does not recognize SD Card in reader. If I try proces mentioned in video tutorial -> result is the same. Device USB Mass Storage is displayed in device manager with error code.
I was trying it in three computers (two with windows 7 x64 and one with Windows XP) - the result was allways the same.
Any one help me?
EDIT:
I have found this solution:
1. Connect USB cable from PC to phone.
2. At PC, enter WP7-Update-Cab-Sender folder.
3. Go to ‘if needed install this tool’ folder.
4. Install Setup-UpdateWP (x64 for 64 bits Windows and x86 for 32 bits Windows).
5. Copy DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab to WP7-Update-Cab-Sender folder.
6. Run WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat.
7. Then type S – (S)end Cabs to device.
8. After finished installation, close WP7 Update Cab Sender.
9. Disconnect USB cable from phone.
10. At WP7, launch StorageLock.
11. Click yes to unlock SD card.
12. Shutdown your phone.
13. Put your SD card into card reader.
14. Launch Partition Wizard Home Edition (download it here)
15. You should see 2 partitions on SD card.
16. Delete both of them.
17. Create a primary FAT32 file type partition.
18. Click ‘Apply’ to begin the process.
19. That’s all.
It works! I kid you not!!

You should know that Installing wp7 locks your card so thats why it is not recognised by your pc..
Have you installed mango or another wp7 version on this sd card or succesfully on another?? I take it, you have no nokia devices that can format your card?
If you have mango installed transfer the storageunlock.cab to the phone followed by partition cab (got to be less than your total capacity) Reset your phone check if partition has taken effect..unlock using storage lock.turn off phone ..take sd card out into adapter into your pc now it should be readable (not full capacity bear in mind) you have to use easeus partition tool to format to full..
If you have mango on a different sd card and want to recover the corrupt one
Check this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286511
Or if your using just the same sd card you have to start over again and reflash from task 29 stock magdlr radio ie then storage unlock tool
Good luck
hey my problem is that wp7 in my hd2 shows internal memory of 175mb only even though my 8gb sd card is inserted in it..i cant seem to find a sloution to make my phone show the sd card memory..any solution please?
I have the same problem
it's probably because you installed wp7 without the sd card in it and you did not hard reset after installing rom...if so, you need to do a hard reset with the sd card in it for wp7 to recognize the card. or you have a bad card to begin with and the wp7 install had problems.
Hi there. I'm new here and have been trying to absorb as much info as I can and learn. I've been trying to follow the verygreen guide to create a bootable SD card. However there's a step there that's not working as written.
The guide says to eject the SD card once the generic*.img has been imaged to the SD card and then re-insert it into the computer. The following step is to copy the ROM that I want to use (either the 7.1 beta or nightly). The problem I'm having is that when I go to re-insert the SD card, nothing pops up in My Computer.
Did I do something wrong?
Thanks very much in advance,
fuul4nook
P.S. This is a Kingston 4GB class 4 card that was connected to the PC with a USB adapter.
You may have... I managed to kill one making images and using them in my nook. If you know what drive its going into when you insert it try to format it and start over. If it doesn't format, you're screwed. If it does, just do the whole card image thing over again.
What you can try is pop-it into either your Nook or another Android device and try to format it through there.
I've had many instances where Windows would just not recongnize and SD card and the above at least put it back to its initial state.
Thanks for the responses. I was able to mount the SD card on another computer and on a Linux desktop, but my own refused to bring up the drive letter. I ultimately did as you guys suggested and reformatted the card on a different machine and started over.
Appreciate the help!
Hello. Plz help.my note not recognize my sd card suddenly when i power off the phone then opened again. In addition the computer also suddenly nt recognize phone but the odin recognise when put it in USB debugging mode.also when open gallary it says SD card is in USB storage mode......thanks alot
does the sd card work in a different phone?
same here, my sd card works on other phone
Yes it works....also when opening camera it says turn off usb mass storage
But in recovery mood.it can read the sd when click on install zip from sd card
In recovery mode the inbuild memory is called sdcard, some not-stock recovery can separate between the two memories.
That said, your mentioning maybe wrong.
Is the card mSDXC, or regular mSDHC?
If there's nothing important on your card, try to format it inside the Note.
If there's important stuff on it, copy it to your pc (using a USB-SDHC-Cardreader) and format it inside the Note after that.
Sometimes the connection between the sdcard and the phone gets disturbed, so manual ejection of the sdcard out of the Note, cleaning the sdcard-contacts and putting it in again (repeat for 2 to 4 times) may help, too.
Regards

first: thank u, still the same issue even with other sd cards. i tried to install new rom by odin,it started progress but at the end of the progress it stopped at the word(hidden) in the box.
I have a 32Gb card installed in my phone and the Format card bit is greyed out. Any reason for this? Thanks in advance!
I'm seriously confused.
My original SD card is recognized on my PC, but when I place it in my phone I get a "SD card is blank or has unsupported filesystem". When I click the notification it asks to format. I press format and the notification goes away for a second and then comes back with the same error. I tried formatting it again on my pc and I still get the same error.
It's not the hardware of the phone since it can recognize me removing and adding a SD card. It's not the software because I flashed another firmware and still got the same error. It's also not the SD card since it's recognized by my computer and I also get the same error on my phone with another SD card.
Does anyone have any idea what's happening? Or what I can do to fix this?
It started while I was trying to flash a custom deoxed firmware on my phone.
