My micro SD card 32 GB has gone bad for third time. First time it went bad phone started showing lag then one day refused to complete boot if card was inserted in it. For 2nd and 3rd time card just became read only for some reason. Files won't delete/rename, if I try to format it in windows can't do it, partition wizard would say process completed but files are still there. Phone is rooted and card is partitioned, I use Link2SD. I use stock rom if it matters.
Aug 2014 I bought LG L90 D410 and a 32 GB card (Sandisk Class 10 UHS1)
July 2015 Card became bad for first time.
Aug 2015 Phone rooted, SD Card partitioned, Link2SD installed
Sep 2015 Card became bad for 2nd time. I got it replaced too and again partitioned it for Link2SD.
Nov 2015 Card became bad for 3rd time.
Q1 Is something wrong with phone's sd card slot that keeps on damaging cards?
Q2 Or is this happening because of apps running from sd card? It's a class 10 card but may be it's still too much for card to handle?
Q3 Any possible solution to just fix the card instead of asking for replacement? It's in warranty but I don't know how long will Sandisk just keep on replacing it.

I've had exact same problem with same phone, same sd card. I know the phone does not hold card securely, and the card don't seem very durable. It was like the heat from the battery and phone had warped it. While trying to gently bend the curve out of it, it snapped in two...

Mine seems fine physically and fits correctly too but yes phone does heat up at the exact spot where sd card is.

So I LOVEEE my nook but alas some how the sd card slot just randomly broke. I completely mean that too, one moment the sd card was inside the nook and the next it decided to pop out and will not go back in. The new plan is to use my warranty and get a new one, but I'm running cm7. Is there anyway without an sd card to return to stock?
edit: found solution but in case anyone else had this problem here is a perfect thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188513
I did the same a month ago or so. Had to physically hold the card in while I restored the stock ROM before I sent it back. This is why I tell people not to excessively swap their cards in and out. Run CM& internally or set the card up with dual boot. Mine card slot failed and I had not touched the card since June.
Howdy,
I have a Nook Color running 7.1.0 from the emmc. Everything seems to be humming along nicely.
However, if I have to reboot for any reason, it will not recognize my sd card until I remove the card and reinsert it. Then it will mount itself and work as usual, sometimes it takes several tries to succeed. The main sd card in question is a 16gb Sandisk class 4, but the same behavior happens regardless of which sd card I try.
This is a small nuisance, but it is going to become a larger problem when I start using my Otterbox case.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I responded to your post in the other forum but basically you may have a failing card slot.
Hello everyone,
Today, I just received the dreaded "blank SD or unsupported file system" all of a sudden from the stock Samsung 2GB Micro SD Card. Everything gone, Card Fried.
But then I tried to put in a separate memory card into the phone. It's a Kingston 2GB. But the moment I even put it in, the whole phone freezes into oblivion. Only when I take it out and wait 5 seconds, will the phone run at normal speeds again.
Another issue is that I am unable to format the aforementioned Kingston Card from the phone. When I try to do so, the phone just says Erasing... then it stops. When I try to press the Mount SD card option, phone just freezes, until, of course, I remove the card and wait 5 seconds.
All this suddenly happened today. I have been owning this 5830i for about 2 months now, no problems, and suddenly today...
Any insight into these issue are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
To help give a more visual approach to this problem, I have decided to take some time off to create a video.

Hope this clarifies things.
OMG what is this shenanigans? I just put the KINGSTON card into the phone and waited two hours, and the phone had the cheek to work normally again. Yay its solved, but I still find this issue to be very strange. Fickle phone, I guess.
I just found a solution to the Kingston Card Lag Problem.
Go google Panasonic SD Formatter and Format the SD Card using a card reader. Then put the card back in the phone and the Card will work normally again.
umm umm. lol?
Hi All,
Just thought i would let you know that 64GB Micro SD and MicroSDXC cards do work.
I ordered a Sandisk Ultra 64GB Micro SDXC card from Amazon for £37 BARGAIN!
It is working in my Samsung Galaxy Camera no problems.
Hope that is helpful.

That's a great price... providing it's a genuine capacity. Even on Amazon there are some rogue traders selling fake cards. Make sure you use a capacity checking tool.

I have the same. Only annoyance is whenever I switch the camera on it asks me if I want to use the SD card when I selected that in the settings.

This happens with my 32Gb card too. Do you think it's down to the card or is this a 'feature' of the camera? Annoying all the same.

It's less consistent now, maybe every 4th or 5th time I switch the camera on.
SGC can read the card in ExtFAT file system or does we have to format it to FAT32?

it only asks on a cold boot.
if fast boot is enabled it doesn't shut down completely until 24 hours after you last used the camera, or until you charge it.
fast-booting skips the boot logo and animation, and it keeps the memory card mounted while the device is off.
in a cold boot the memory card needs to be mounted, and this usually happens shortly after the starting application(usually the launcher, but it's the camera app on the sgc) is launched.
because the camera is launched before the memory card is available it defaults to internal storage, and then asks if you want to switch once it detects the insertion(mounting) of the memory card.

I understood that this was the reason for the SD Card prompt but I believe the better solution would be an option in settings to always accept the external SD card as the default storage once mounted.
It doesn't seem to be an issue in any smartphone I ever owned which essentially goes through the same mount process on a cold boot.
how often do you start the camera app before android even got the chance to mount the memory card though?
no other android device launches the camera app this quickly after(or rather, during) startup.
It's Boxing Day Sale on Amazon and I just ordered the Sandisk 64GB Micro SD card for CAD$48.00 with free shipping!
Cheers

Same happens to me too. Gets worst when you have a Security password associated to the device. By the time you enter the 4digit code the option to select the card goes and the camera reset back to using the internal memory. annoying to say the least.
hi, has anyone who is using a 64gb class 10 card notice any speed different of the device?
[Problem] Nokia Lumia 625 gets "hang" and after restart it stucks at NOKIA logo
Hi

Should i do this or take it to nokia care?
I have purchased it in INDIA from online seller
625 has a SD Card slot isn't it? If so, have you tried removing the SD card if you have it there?
Hello,
Try press both volume down and power bottoms together for 10 seconds or more,
phone should restart normally

Nice to hear it helped but I am [email protected] frustrated by these SD card issues. My Sammy ATIV S screwed after I replaced a Transcend 32 Gbyte card with a 64Gbyte one from Sandisk. Now that my phone can't read barely anything no matter whether I have my old Transcend inserted or don't have any SD card at all. My system apps like Photos don't start, camera app does take photos by crashes after I take a shot, Photos app doesn't show any newly taken photos.
I would tell you, go replace your broken SD card but I can't because I've used Transcend for nearly half a year and it worked like a charm until I replaced it with Sandisk. Obviously, the issue isn't only with the hardware.
BTW, what SD card do you use?

Thanks. Well, seems like SanDisk did their job dreadfully bad and screwed smth. it their controller's firmware. I've had problems with my SanDisk getting dismounted from phone every few seconds, when Transcend worked just fine.
That's good info for us WP owners to stay clear from SanDisc.
