There's a transparent object where the Micro SD card should be. I tried pressing on it to remove, but it's not coming off.
Anyone know if that's normal =/
It's a dummy card and should be removable the usual way

Hey guys,
As of Sunday evening I'm having a recurrent problem where my phone is nearly constantly unmounting and remounting the SD Card, or not recognizing it at all, or saying that its corrupt, this seems to be causing the top of the phone around the sim / sd card cover to get warmer than normal and a significant hit on the battery life, for example today it's been off of charge for about 4 hours and now i have less than 30% battery left.
Obviously this is not normal and there is a fault somewhere so i figured I'd ask here to see if anyone had came across similar issues and see if there was any obvious fixes before doing anything drastic.
The phone is running TiMiN8R's rooted and deodexed JB rom. Locked bootloader, extended standby time is disabled. the SD card is a sandisk 32gb class 4 card.
not sure if that info helps but i figured i better specify it in case anyone asks.
Try to reformat or -partition your card. I think I have seen more problems with Sandisk cards, sometimes only solved by buying an other card. I have no problems with my own Sandisk 32GB though.

I'm about 90% positive that it was a fake card now, i put an old 8gb card i had in it and its been running fine since, I put the other card into my computer to check it and it's now claiming it's a 32mb not a 32gb card.
Was having this problem with my old san disk 32gb class 4 card. Now im on a new san disk class 10 32gb card and have not had this problem for almost 1 month

I think you may have a faulty card. I had a SanDisk Ultra C10 32GB and suddenly it behaved the same way. Even worse, I can't get the card to recognize even if I took it to a PC. If I used a 16GB C4 card, then everything was okay.
I sent in my 32GB card for RMA.

I'd also bet you've got a faulty card. I bought one of the Maplins 32GB cards and had a similar problem with overheating and unmounting. Replaced it and not had any trouble since.

Oh crap, think I have the same problem as it had stated happening to me out of the blue sandisk 32g card bought from a reputable seller on thief-bay. I'll reformat first and see if it persists.

Try doing a Full format, and see if it still gives the same errors,
failing that check with a SD card reader on a PC, if it gives the same errors,
those cards should be with a Lifetime warranty if I am not mistaken?

dude, just a question. is your SD card still usable after the message popped up? cause i experienced once the same issue and i ended up buying a new SD card because my SD card becomes corrupted. by the way, i am using kingston 32gb class 4. today i have my new SD card and i'm afraid that i will face the same issue again after reading your complaint.
My original is only useable when connected to PC via card reader even after a format it is still not reconized by the phone.
My new Card is now behaving and since writing this topic it has resumed and working OK.
Not sure what caused the prob to start with but now I stuck with a card that I feel will fail at any time so I can't transfer data/apps etc in case it fails and have to go through the hassle of back up to PC then format then re transfer to card.

so in short, your SD card is not corrupted since it can be read by your computer?
Yes but my Sp and my arc and my old x10 will not read the old SD card.
Edit in the last half hour the new SD card had again stopped being recognised and getting SD card removed unexpectedly error......aaagggghhhhh

I also experienced the same thing, since I use a sandisk class 10 3 months ago I was having this problem,
I've done a variety of ways to fix it but just the same, I have not tried it with the sd card to another,
so I do not know the cause masalh this from sd card or from my hp
sorry for my bed english
When ever I put a faulty in an other device it is not recognised.
PC will read it OK backed up then have formatted so many times.
it works OK for maybe 3-5 days then get errors.
The new card I got in august 13 plays up every so often.
An old sandisk class 4 16gig (from x10) seems to be OK, if this goes then I know it is Sp as this card has been working fine in x10

My SP has the same problem, Sandisk Ultra, 64GB. The SD card is just fine.
I'm really wondering if it is a hardware or a software problem. The SDcard is kind of loose in its place, maybe its the build of the phone or something. Guess I will have to send it back to repairs again then.
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.

Note 4 unrooted 5.1.1/ 64gb Samsung class10 sdhc this is chronic and happening multiple times daily. It seems to have started to occur when moving files from internal memory to card which shouldn't be a problem. I wonder if there is a way to have all downloads go directly to sd rather then moving them with a file manager which seems to have borked the file structure causing these errors. Just my guess. Anyway I haven't found any definate fix so would appreciate any input. I have most of my apps on the card so it is really inconvenient.

If it's new, the problem is almost definitely the card; unexpected from a Samsung card but it's definitely possible for any manufacturer to sell a dud. Hopefully an exchange/return is possible? If I were in your spot, I would stick with Samsung and just chalk this one up to "luck of the draw".
I've got quite a collection of cards and most have been problem free (the only brand I've sworn off is SanDisk because almost every one of their cards that I've had has worked fine for a while, then suddenly it's still readable in a phone or PC, but impossible to write to) but the only time that I've had the unmounting problem that you describe was with a brand new card that was clearly no bueno. Good luck!
Im going to try to format the card, fat32 save all the data, and replace it. It just started occuring after moving files like downloaded images and music, so I think the file structure is causing the dismounts. Also the apps that are loaded on the card have the icons disappearing sporadically.

Where did you buy the card from?....is it authentic
I'm going to blame this one on root. .

Ok not rooted, and the card was
purchased from Samsung with my Note 4 discount. So I have a possible fix for any with this issue. I thought it might be related to wireless charging bc it coincided with this, but it may be because I transferred wallpapers and lockscreen images to external sd. I moved them back to internal storage and havent had a dismount. If it occurs again, Ill format the card. May do a factory reset as well just to kill anu bugs. Can you recommend a good backup method for non root? Ive rooted so long and used Titanium, but obviously cant on a stock device.

It is a bad sd card. Yes, it is new, but it is memory. It fails. I have had issues like this across all cards. Sandisk, Kingston, & Samsung too. It happens.

Ok Im surprised because it worked for about a year with zero issues. Now my macbook pro wont recognize the phone as drive at all. AFT says "no device" uninstalled kies, not sure if I had it but ran uninstaller, nada. Just charges, not recognized as usb device. Im at a loss. Formatted card, about to do a factory reset. Alot of apps on that card so I'm missing those apps. Odd because with the adaptor I was able to move files on my mac from the card but not to it so its not writable.

I see the same problem. Does it a few times a week. Haven't tried replacing the card though.
Well reset did not help. The card is bad,but the phone won't be recognized as a USB device at all and it's out of warranty. I lost contacts which I thought were automatically backed up to google. Maybe they're stored on the sd. Used to store on the sim or at least was an option. Now endless headaches due to reset. I didn't root just to avoid this kind of stuff.

I had this happen a ton when I had an S4 with multiple cards. It just couldn't handle 64gb, but my wifes identical phone could. Maybe your note just has a glitch. First thing is to return for another card though.
The media scanner and it will suck the life out of your battery as it scans every time the card is 'inserted'. This can be disabled though.
I have a 7 year old or older 1gig sandisk class 6 in it now and it hasn't dismounted it yet, though I dont have any apps on it yet.
