I got a HTC Raider/Vivid with Bell and a 16 GB microSD. I used the sd to take some pics and stuff. Today I downloaded some music from my linux computer and suddenly I get a message "SD card unexpectedly removed" whenever I unlock the screen after booting. I took out the card and reinserted it to no avail. I tried to restore the phone to factory ddefault but i still get the message.
What should I do?
possibly faulty card, have you tried the actual card itself in a computer or different device?
if it works in your computer then store the info you have on it and try to format it.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply. I managed to solve the problem. I just deleted all the files on the card and then inserted it again. It worked.

Hello guys!
I've got a Galaxy S i9000 and i have a 8GB microSD. I used that SD card on my Xperia Play (sold it, but without the SD) and after i got the Galaxy I put my SD in it. Everything worked well, it recognised everything... but today I wanted to put some music on my SD and i noticed that it loads very slowly, and after that i got an error which said: "the request could not be performed because of an i/o device error". And I got that error everytime i tried to copy/paste something from/to my SD.
So I said, ok, I'll just format it. I formated it in recovery, and everything wen well...it was fast again so i just tried to copy some music (2 or 3 GB)...but when it was at 80-90% i got that error again.
I searched on the Internet...and found SD Formater and I used it to format my card again. And after it finished I rebooted my phone. After it loaded a notification came up... "SD Damaged"...i tried to format it again in recovery but nothing changed.
So does anyone know how to fix it? Please help me!
Thanks in advance!
PS: Sry for my English and for the long post.
Try to format the SD card in your Computer or another Portable Device like a Camera, External card Reader etc.,
Always safely remove USB & try to enable USB debug mode.

I formated it in my friend's phone and now my phone recognises it but, it's still slow and i can't format it in my phone because that option is grey and i can't use it :-?? . Well...i guess the card is demaged for real.
Anyway...thx for your reply.
My sd card just formatted itself.

Try some free data recovery software. Google it, and use a card reader on your PC to help, but it does not look good.
Thanks for your reply.
Ive actually did that and got trolled by this program. After scanning all the files, it asked me to purchase the program in order to get the files back. I got fed up and reformatted the sd card and start from scratch.
Right now I'm facing one issue. After putting stuff back into the sd card, I unplugged it and the sd card un mounted itself. I pulled it out and plug it back in with restart and all and the phone still cant read it.
Is it the sd card problem or my phone?
Or what else should I do?
Thanks on advance.

There are plenty of good free ones that dont do that, however, if you have now formatted the card all the information is lost.
Which format did you format it too? Make sure its FAT or EXT2, 3 or 4. The best bet is to format it in recovery.
I knew it would be a problem if I reformat it, but I was really fed up certain programs like those. I didn't want to waste time so I chose to reformat it.
My first attempt with FAT didn't work, and tried the others as well.
This morning I reformatted and stick it into the phone and erased every thing on the sd through the phone again. And now it seems to work fine.
Somehow the first few tries the phone reformatted the sd even when I did it through the computer already.
Anyway, thanks alot buddy

I only get this message once I insert the microsd card into the tablet, I get the option not now or go to my files, and I always press not now, and it never come up again until I take out the card and re insert.
do you keep taking out the card or does the message just comes up without you removing/insert the card.

Backup all your data from sd card and format the card from settings/storage
Probably a card on its way out.

thank you guys for your quick reply. Apologize for the insufficient info. Okay, initially when I inserted the card, the tab is in off mode. Once I powered it up, I didn't get that message. I straight away go to my files and the sd card content is already there, so I thought that is normal, but after a while that message cames on. It goes off once you touch anywhere on the screen or the soft keys. This thing happened on and on. the only thing I haven't done is formatting the card. I gonna try that method afterwards. wish me luck...>_<

It is always best to go through the procedures when insert or removing the sd card, use the menu and unmounts the SD card then format, it's best not to continuous taking out the SD card, even though you can do that.
hmm.... I believe I have tried doing all the method mention before. no joy... formatting process unable to complete(using onboard programme), its only done half way before that message appear again....tried several times....still the same....can't format using PC(ahh....couldn't find my card reader)..so I've concluded that I have to change a new card...even though previously all the content inside works flawlessly. anyway....thanks all for the advices given.
I had that problem with an old microSD and my T810. Changing it with a new one (faster and best branded) solved the problem.
No more messages.

There are two more method you can try, download the Panasonic SD formatter and use that program to format the SD card, or you can format the card using a old nokia phone that runs on the old S40 OS.

I had a 16gb sandisk do this on my s2, swapped it yesterday for a newer, faster 64gb card and so far so good. I'd try a different card or buy a new one.

wow... I wanna give this method a try, looks very promising....
I can't guarantee that the SD formatter work,but it's. A very good program made by the SD association, but the Nokia one has a good chance, previously I has some dead micros, and some that will not detect, even on a PC, the nokia fixed it.
Hi, I'm having this issue: I have stock camera configured to save photos to the external SD card and it usually works fine, but lately sometimes the camera is taking the photo but not saving to the card, without noticing. If I restart the device everything is fine until eventually it fails again.
Is someone having this problem? Thank you
Have you tried with a different SD card? Just to be sure yours is not faulty.

Remove all the data from the card and format it in windows, not quick format.
Put the card back in the phone, format it again in setting/storage, then move your data back on.
If this doesn't fix it buy a new card.
Today the card was damaged after mounting and unmounting and even the Pc didn't show the content. I recovered the data with the command chkdsk and now I'm testing using it with the phone. In the case that I have problems again I'll format and hope that I don't need to change it.

You need to turn your phone off before you pull the card out, likewise for putting it back in.

But there is an option to mount and unmount the micro sd, and a notification that say that is safe to extract the card.
Anyway I think that my problems began when I inserted a USB drive attached to an OTG adapter. I don't know why are mount and unmount operations offered if they don't work properly.
Thank you.

You can check your SD card by connecting it to a different device and see if it is corrupted or not. Also when your SD card is not being recognized in PC after connecting your SD card to your PC, assign a new drive letter to this connected card through your operating system settings.
Also please check that your Stock Camera firmware is upgraded since the concerned case could be a case of camera-card incompatibility also.

Thank you but chkdsk to recover data and then formatting was the solution. So far is working fine.
Just recently installed the latest update on an att S10. After the reboot it gave a notification that said the micro sd card was in read only mode. I tried rebooting but same thing. I removed and reinserted the card and same message. I booted to the recovery menu and cleared the cache. After that I started getting a message that it was corrupt. I put it into my pc and the scan disk found nothing wrong. I was also able to read and write to it. Anybody else have this issue or do you think it was just coincidence that it started going bad at that particular time. In the meantime I am copying the data to a new micro sd and I will see how that does

Happened to me once. Took out SD card and put it back in and everything worked fine after that.
Same issue. Even tried a new SD card and becomes corrupt. Can't even format the card on the phone or through the PC. Still trying to troubleshoot a workaround on this but as OP noted, it's probably related to the new update
