Can you get to SD card by dismantling the phone? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if it is possible to access the internal SD card by dismantling the phone without breaking it?

I don't know but I would like to change myn as well for a larger memory.

Well since my phone seems to be knackered. I might try it as a last resort to fix it and let you know soon.

mmm i guess not.. but would be very interesting if it's possible that.. so we could expand our internal sd memory.. let us know

I'm not sure but i don't think there is an actual card inside. It must be a flash chip instead.
Correct me if i'm wrong of course

looks like you are right.

External memory card issue?

Have a 32 gig sd for about 2 weeks now and had no problems until yesterday. Now media scanner says it is a blank memory card and won't read it. I tried formatting but no luck. Anyone else have this issue before? Is there a fix? Thanks ahead of time for any info!
Where did you get the card? brand? I've read a lot about people getting fake cards from China that are awful quality. Not sure if you can do much but re format it with the computer

Do our i897/i896 support 32GB card ever?

Sd card problems

First problem is that when I connect the phone to my computer the sdcards don't appear, it did a couple of builds back, I'm sure it worked in #81, so it's quite a hassle to transfer files between comp and phone. The second is
That the phone looses the sdcard a couple of times per day so I have to reboot the phone to get it back.
Anyone else having these problems and know how to fix them? Thanx in advance dear xda developers

Have you simply tried with a different SD card? Maybe its faulty?
No haven't done that, might try that thanx for the tip! Btw the card works good in the phone

Nopes the other sd card didnt work either. Ill take this as CM7 is fubared when it comes to connecting the phone to a computer and the SD card in that situation :/
i am having the same problem, still searching for the answer....
maybe the connectors aren't aligned
I would assume that the connectors are working since the sd card works perfectly in the phone quite annoying that i have to remove the sd card and connect it to the computer everytime i want to move something big..
Btw, the sd card doesn't disappear now, i guess they fixed it in some build

[Q] Is it just me or is most of us here had the gtab internal memory failure?

What could have been the problem where most users here had internal memory or chip failure? The rom we used or hardware instability?

I know you have been very helpful in the p1000 thread, but I'm not trolling here, please don't bash me.
Actually does anyone feel that it is a manufacturing internal memory failure or we are just bunch of unlucky ppl who happened to have bought a tab with malfunctioning internal memory?
Sent from my Nokia 3310
Not bashing you. But just disagree with the estimation you put.
I think it more likely some percentage of units have chips that are bad.
Also, do they fail within warranty period?
In manufacturing it is not that easy to weed out bad parts.
Btw, there are threads talking about using external sd only.
Have you tried that? Apparently with class 10 cards, the tab performs relatively well.

Ya I read around about using the external sd as internal memory. However I found ppl saying that some custom roms do not run well, so I just leave my tab aside and find the time to learn how to use the toolkit. Thanks for the info.

Micro SD Card Wiped, Any Hope?

Looks like the 4.4.2 has wiped my micro sd card...did this happen to anyone else? Not rooted, nothing fancy, just can't believe it wiped out all of my pictures...no chance of salvaging this is there?

how did you get to 442? What did you upgrade from and how? Unless it was low level formatted, you can usually recover all the lost data usually with a program on a Windows computer. Did you try to eject then reinsert the memory card?
If it really has been wiped, try photorec (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec). You should run this as soon as possible, without writing anything else to the card, to maximise your chances of recovery.
I would recommend Foremost. It helped me twice.
Thanks y'all, I ended up using Cardrecovery (www.cardrecovery.com), and recovered 4000+ pictures/videos, so I'm GTG. Although testing some of the random vidoes don't work, but I was more interested in the pictures anyway.
