Hi everyone, i was wondering if i would be able to use my Note 8 to emulate my time stamp card at work, i have already discussed this with them,if what they are saying is correct there is no encryption on the cards, so it is readable and writable without any problems, just need to find a way to emulate the card.

Hi Everyone,
I have an XT860 and keep a copy of my ~28gb music collection on my MicroSD Card loaded in android device. Every so often, I'll notice that I'm missing files. I checked the lost.dir and had to delete about 6GB of files in there. After reading up on the issue, people in forums had mentioned to do a format from the phone which I have done, and I always unmount the card in Windows the nice way.
I think this happens when the battery dies (which, as we all know is quite often, there is no phone standby fix yet for my phone), or when I crash.
Is there a way to use a more robust filesystem on the SD card so a simple crash doesn't corrupt the whole thing? I was using the same card with a Blackberry Torch for about 4 months and never had this issue.
Thanks!
Hi I've been using the note for a month and half now. And I like manageing someo f my apps. So a while ago I've issued some problems with Apps on the SD card.
So the issue is when the smartphone is accessing the SD card. Normally the issue can be recreated by moving more than 1 app to SD at the same time. This issue is also returning when installing 2 or more apps at the same time on the SD. When I had this issue I said okay, no problem I'll move my apps to my internal storage. But now with the nice Google 0,10cent deals, it's getting hard not to resist to put some Apps on the SD.
The problem with the issue is that it's rebooting every time. Anyone had any issues? I'm using a class 10 Samsung 32gb miniSD card. Also my note is on stock and update to 2.3.6.
So I was wondering if someone had any idea how to resolve this issue? I've read about the Samsung Galaxy S2 having the same problem. But didn't find a solution yet.
BTW, can anyone explain when the note is saying it has 2GB system storage and 21,2GB USB storage (when I view files on SD) and where can I see my SD storage + why does it still use USB storage when I move a file to SD?
Thank you for your answers, sorry the Galaxy Note is my first Android! But I've enjoying every step of the way !
I have several retired Windows Phone devices from family and friends, screen cracked, battery inflated, etc. Now most of their owners have moved on, and the parts don't even look useful anymore, except for one part: the internal storage. I want to harvest the SD cards from a mix of Windows Phone 7 / Windows Phone 8 / 8.1 devices.
I know that with Windows Phone 7, the file system was LOCKED in a way that not many card readers / devices even recognized. Taking an internal SD card out of a damaged Windows Phone 7 device gives a perfectly normal looking 16GB class 4 microSD card... that can not be accessed, erased, deleted, nuked, formatted, or used, by anything. I've tried countless friends phones, tablets, computers, readers, UBCD, DBAN, utilities, tools, you name it. I have also looked high and low, and have never seen one of the fabled Nokia devices in the wild that can gently format these locked-up microSD cards.
My question for this forum is does Windows Phone 8 also lock the internal SD card filesystem in the same way that WP7 did? Can I extract and harvest the internal 32GB SD cards of some Lumia 920s for use in other devices? I know that 32GB microSD cards are cheap, but that's not the point. I just don't like to see these 32 GB cards go to waste. I'm hoping that I can just take a hammer to my Lumia 920s and pry out the SD card, format it with a card reader, then drop it into my 1520, my tablet, my wife's Galaxy Note 2, etc for extra storage.
A random thought I had was: could it possibly help if I subscribe my company email to the Lumia 920 before smashing it? My company's policy enforces full-disk encryption. I'm curious if the full-disk encryption will help the card be "formattable" as I definitely won't care about the data that's contained on the card. I don't have any dev-unlocked windows phones, and have never sideloaded anything, but I would be open to it if I could get these SD cards to be useable. Some of the WP8 devices turn on and could possibly be manipulated, some can not.
Any help is appreciated!
P.S. - I also have a stash of 16GB SD cards from WP7 phones that I have almost given up on using, but if someone has knowledge about wiping those, I would love to hear it. I have no working WP7 phones, so the solution can't be from any app sideloading.
wp 7 cards can be formatted with a few old Nokias : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242071
wp8 cards aren't looked at all , you can just pull them out and use ( not even the need to format them.

Thanks for the help, ceesheim.
Just to provide an update on this, in case anyone else gets a similar idea. So far I've taken apart a Verizon HTC 8X, and a Nokia Lumia 920, and neither of them had internal MicroSD cards. Both had eMMC implementations, which mean they are not removable. My Nokia Lumia 920 had a Toshiba THGBM5G8A4JBAIM which is a 32GB eMMC chip.
The lesson here is that microSD cards are cheap, and harvesting them from old phones is not worth it!
Heya guys,
long story short: I started getting some random SD card ejects after one of the updates. Sadly, I can't pinpoint the specific nightly.
The MicroSD card went through extensive tests,reformats and checks. Tried using it in both adaptive and portable storage modes but still getting the problem. The MicroSD card appears to be genuine, its 32 gigs and currently it works. It's formatted in ExFat I believe and it usually starts ejecting during the playback of songs.
I got an unsupported SD format once, but after a reboot it seems to be working again.
After some forum reading I saw that people say that their cards are usually dying and they just need to change it.
One thing I suspect that shorthened the life of my card was actually dual-booting with MultiRom. Im aware that cards have a specific write/read count, but I was a bit hopeful that I wouldnt need to change my card.
I'd like to ask if someone else has experienced the same issues and found a solution, or I really just need to get a new MicroSD card.
Thank you in Advance.
I recently bought a San Disk 512gb micro sd and while it works perfectly fine since I've inserted it I wanted to transfer files without my phone being plugged to the pc so I dismounted the card and directly transferred files from the pc. After finishing up I inserted it back but to my dismay it I get the error message ''Issue with SanDisk SD card'' and wants to format it. The card was with the stock exfat format when it arrived and worked fine. I plugged the card back to the pc, did the windows repair and it couldn't find anything defective. I inserted the card back and it still didn't work. I then tried it on my S8+ and it works flawlessly there. And for some reason after inserting it back to the Note 10 pro it was suddenly working and I thought this problem might be gone but today I was not able to put some files via usb connection to my phone for some reason and did it again directly over the micro sd card and inserting it back the same issue occurs, only on the Redmi note 10 pro. No issues at all with the S8+. But this time I couldn't get it working on the Note 10 pro. I then reformatted it via I also tried a 64gb micro sd in both phones and that seems to works fine, no issues. I then used ''MiniTool Partition Wizard'' on my pc to format the micro sd and in my first test it seems to work in the Note 10 pro but after transferring my files back the issue occurs again and it does not work. Any idea what to do? I'm very annoyed with this and this issue is driving me mad and steals a lot of time.
Now I'm trying it for the last time, directly formatted it via the phone as a media storage, safely ejected it and started the copy process which will take a couple of hours (200gb). Is there anything I should know? This feels like a issue with the software/phone.
Edit:
Yep, this is a bug in the Note 10 pro (maybe only with bigger cards?) and you can circumvent in by renaming specific folders which causes conflicts if you try to mount your sd card.
I'm not sure if all these 4 cause this but when I've renamed every folder and the sd card mounted successfully.
The new 4 folders created (Pictures, Music, Movies, Android) might caused some kind of conflict for whatever reason. I think the issue is with the music folder, its the only folder of these specific ones I had filled with a lot of data, I already deleted the Android folder in a previous attempt but did not guess any other could cause such a major issue with mounting. Weird, but man I'm glad this is over.
Edit: Does not seem to work after a update again and this time renaming/deleting those folders does not do the trick. Now I'm stuck again without a way to fix this, any Samsung device my family members have have no issues mounting the card except my Redmi Note 10 pro. This is a massive problem for anyone using a big exfat micro sd card.
I had this same issue and it was not ROM dependent. I have a 1TB MicroSD card from Sandisk. It would normally go from wanting me to format to eventually not asking and would pop up from time to time. It stopped when I switched to EliteROM. But as stated, it is random. I don't know why it happens. But once it shows up eventually, I delete every folder it created and leave my defaults. Don't format it. It will just do the same and you would have lost time and files for nothing.
In a nutshell, it is just a bug that goes away on its own.
