Unmounting sd card causes my note 3 to reboot - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys..has anyone of you having thesame problem after kitkat updates? When i try to unmount my sd card from settings it takes 30-60 secs and booom!my n9005 restarted itself and as if nothing has happen..my sd card still mounted. I did try to unmount it again and still same thing happens. At first i noticed that when i try to browse my files from the sd card using es file manager .it shows "invalid path" but after i updated the app it works fine..but still the problem unmounting occurs.. i search all over the web but seems nothing was facing this problem before.here r the other infos of my device:
N9005 kitkat 4.4.2
Micro sd sandisk class 4 16gb
Hope somebody can suggest how can i fix this without requiring me to format my sd card coz i do have a lot of files there and i do not have other device that i can use for backup..

I dont know about this because I'm on 4.3 did you tried unmounting your card when u were on 4.3?
Sent from Galaxy Note 3 SM-9005

Yes,thats what i was doin before removing my sd card.,unmounting thru settings first but i didnt have this problem.after updating to kitkat it seems that this was due to some one of the numerous bug to report..

Yeah I'm on KitKat stock ROM. Never tried testing it on 4.3 because I updated my phone as soon as I took it out the box haha

Haven't u tried formatting ur sd card yet?the safest thing i can do for now is switch off my fone and unmount the sd card, i really dont want to format my sd now until i have my backup.and i also having a thought that this wasnt causing a bad sd card as you were saying.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Well when I updated my phone to 4.4.2 I did a full factory reset then formatted the SD card. I like to move what apps I can to the SD card to free up internal memory.

[Q] U8800 (not Pro) 2.3.5 beta 1.0 issues

Does anyone have issues with the SD card after the upgrade?
It says that my 16Gb Sandisk format is unsupported but it fails to format and mount it.
Do you have the chance to format the card directly with your phone instead with the computer?

men, you can put the SD on the garbage because it happen the same to mine to. It's impossible to read it is destroy.

I tried doing it using Settings/Storage/Format via the phone as well but that failed.
Using the SD Formatter from the SD Association worked where Windows Quick Format failed. Never had that before.

Maybe you can search the SDCard in the bin and try to format with the SD Formatter
I had that happening to me before also. This stopped happening after a couple reflashes of the international version. SD mounting on recovery is still broken though.
Too bad the rom never stays operational for more than 1 or 2 hours... it always ends up in a reboot and bootloop until full wipe.
HI
I have updated new 2.3.5 but my screan keeps restarting after Huwei Icon
happens to me also.. now my fone can't read SD card.....
My phone doesn't turn off after i reverted to 2.2.2! When i turn it off, it reboots only. And that is happening everytime! And when i restored a backup, the phone boots only into recovery and then also everytime!

Just so people don't think it happens to everyone, I'm using a 16GB microSD card and it mounts just fine.
Before, when I had an Optimus Boston (Gigabyte GSmart G1305) with CM7 (2.3.*) and the card failed to mount, but after some upgrade it started working. With the 2.1 stock ROM it worked.
Can't tell if the problem was fixed by the CM crew or came from the vanilla android code though.

[Q] Major Sd card issue

Hey all. I got a major issue where i cannot move,delete,copy or edit any of the files and folders from my Sd card and everytime i try for example to delete something i get the message "..it cannot be deleted". I also tried to export something from dropbox to sd card and i also get an error message saying " Storage full or unavailable" . Lastly i also can't seem to move files from my pc to the sd card . I started having this problem today that i flashed rastakat rom 4.4. Running its latest version,with PA gapps. From my perception its like i don't have the rights to edit anything other than download and install from playstore that works normaly. Please help. Thanks in advance.
By the way i also re flashed like 5 times and problem hasnt been solved

How could I do that anyway?
I didn't find any other way so I wiped everything, flashed stock and re-flashed, rastakat after. Now all seem normal.

SM-N900 issues with SD card and heating

Hi there, I've noticed that recently my Note3 (SM-N900) suddenly heats up. I also noticed there are issues with the SD Card don't know for sure that these issues are related but seems that could be, when the card gets disconnected until I reboot the phone.
My current SD Card is a Samsung 64GB (Class 10). Android Version: 4.3*

I've never had an issue with class 10 Sandisk 32 and 64GB cards, not in the S3, S4, Note3 or TF700t.... (except once, it got corrupted, I had to format it because I was too lazy to unmount it before ejecting every time... Learned my lesson!)
As for the heating, sounds like media server getting stuck on a corrupt file or a huge folder.
-Hook the card up to a pc, let windows explorer do a search for 0kb files. Under search settings>size, or type 'size:empty' (without the quotes) in the search bar. Delete any 0kb media files. (leave the nomedia, playlists and appfiles alone). Repeat process for the phone storage.
-Put a .nomedia file in every folder not containing music, video or pictures you need. You can copy an existing one from another folder.
-If you have a folder with over 1000 files, split them up or if it's not media, hide it with a nomedia file. (I have one folder with over 18.000 files, Mediaserver turned my phone into a grill trying to process it...)

SD Card deleting files issue

Hi,
I have Omega v41 Lollipop rom. Whenever i delete anything on my sd card it appears again after the reboot. I am not sure what is causing this. Any suggestions?

Does it work if you delete it from your pc?
It might be a dead sd card otherwise.

Can you add files to it?
Is the card set up as being write protected?
I have tried pc formatted the card and also used the phone format method. 40gb worth of data keeps coming back in original format.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
I guess it has reached it write limit.
You can try another card to see if the problem persists. If it does your phone is screwy. If it doesn't the SD card is cooked.
Yeah guys it looks like card is becoming faulty. Tried another sd card phone has formatted it fine and using it now. Its a shame how these card break so easily.

SD car not recognized on my Verizon Galaxy Note 3????

I've got a Samsung 64 GB sd card that I've formatted and put in my Note 3, the problem is that its not recognizing it, any help would be appreciated. The problem I'm having is when I insert the card in my phone and go under Storage all the way at the bottom the Mount SD Card is greyed out so I cannot do anything with it
Thanks
Is it being detected in your pc ?
Which file system did you use when you format your card ?
Try a different file system.

yes it is being recognized by my pc, its a 64 GB card so its formatted to exfat, still not doing anything, ive tried several ways and just not having any luck.
any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the reply
Check if you can mount it from recovery. If you can format it there and see.

I am at work so getting into recovery on a stock phone for me is impossible, when I get home I will try that, my phone is stock so not much i can do with it here.
Thanks
Stock touchwiz have issue with exfat ... At least that's what I remember reading somewhere... (havent used tw for quiet a while now ) Try fat32 (I know 4 gig limit is a pain ... But just to clear things up ... ) and see of it reads before flashing a recovery.
Sent from my SM-N900 using Tapatalk
I will try that once I get home today and again thanks for all the replys.
Happy to help ... Keep me posted.
Sent from my SM-N900 using Tapatalk
I just noticed this in your post above, you say 4GB limit, what did you mean by that?
In a Fat32 file system ... A single file can't exceed 4gb ... In case you want to transfer a 8gig rar file to your mem card ... You can't do it with fat32.
Sent from my SM-N900 using Tapatalk
unfortunately no go so far, got home and reformatted several size SD cards but its not reading any of them. I had a few 8GB, a few 16GB and also the 64GB card I am trying to use but just no luck.
Taking it to a phone shop today to see if they clean the contacts on the phone itself and if that doesn't help I will return the phone.
