So I have searched for this error and no one seems to have an answer that fits my problem. I got an error after booting that stated SD card unexpectedly removed and gave me a triangle with an exclamation point in the center
the card works fine
it will mount up perfectly from recovery, i even pushed several roms to it and tried (cyanogen, RR, and SkyRaider) all three worked beautifully, but as soon as I boot up BAM "SD card unexpectedly removed" and I can't access anything
the computer reads it just fine so I am pretty sure there is nothing wrong with the card, also with it reading in recovery it seems there is nothing wrong with the phone
is this a problem with ROMs?
I could try to do a factory reset and see if that works... but its really annoying :\
any help?
I would try reformatting the card on your PC. The card may have a bad sector that the PC and Recovery ignore. The phone OS tends to be a little more picky about those sort of things.

This worked
Thank you, I am running good now
I noticed when I was trying to backup my SD card (pictures and whatnot) that some of the files were corrupt
I will make sure I keep a regular backup just in case its a sign of the card going bad
good thing is my titanium backups were all perfect

You are on the right path - don't forget, a good practice is to back up your SD card to your PC regularly.
Why? If (when really) the SD goes wonky, you have a PC backup of the card, and you can get another SD, format it on the PC, load the backups you made, and be back in business in short order.

I lost a few pictures that I took recently but overall it wasnt a big loss
I will def be doing this more frequently
Same problem with a twist

My solution was to format and start over, that was the only thing that worked for me
I've gotten this a few times and it is a PITA because it resets all the notification sounds and also the phone reboots. Once it does it, the only way I can get it to work is to remove the card, put it in the PC, let Win7 do a fix and repair errors and then it will work. I tried removing and reinserting, and it would mount the card and immediately give me the 'sd card unexpectedly removed' message.
I tried reformatting, and the sd card worked for a while and then I got the 'unexpectedly removed" message again after a few days. The last time it gave me that message, I just did the repair errors thing again and it's been working without fail for about 4 days now. It seems like it's going to be an ongoing thing though.
I've been googling like a mad person trying to find a real fix for this. I saw a thread on Android central where they guy said he put his wife's card in his phone and it did the same thing; but worked fine in hers. He mentioned it might be related to the 2.2 OTA update. My problem did start after that update.
In another forum thread, someone posted that they bought a new card, and it gave them the same message. So it doesn't appear to be a bad card; which is what I originally thought. I'd hate to buy a new one and have same issue (i have a 16gb card currently).
(sorry for long post)
I have the same problem! I'm using a Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 2. Previously i've been running Froyo 2.2 over the phone with a 16 GB microSD Card without problem. Later i've been using a 2 GB microSD Card and works fine, but now i'm runnin' Gingerbread ROM From verizon with 16 GB microSD Card and the messages "SD Card unexpectedly removed" don't stop.... the card works fine over other phones... even the stereo of my car can read perfectly the card's content.
I don't know if this is a problem with the update or what????
I don't think in the versions of "Bad sectors" because i check everthing and the problem persist.
The problem appears when i'm playing music... later of that the problem appears at the camera, the file explorer or another app that tries to read the SD Card.
I reboot the phone and works fine but after a couple of minutes the same [email protected]$%&t appears again....
I'm tired of reading forums telling me that is a problem with the sectors... that is a LIE!
no matters the class of the card because i've tried with Class 2, Class 4 and works fine.
This night i'll go to the store that solds me that coursed card to change it!
if tomorrow my problem was solved i been writing at this same forum!

I do not think someone saying it is bad sectors means they are lying.
I think they are merely trying to help you determine what the problem could possibly be.

did you format the card and try again as suggested earlier? That usually clears up any issues with sd cards unless they're fubar'd. Just make sure you back your card up first.
Whenever my card does this I put it into my Windows computer, right click on the card and go to properties/tools/error checking/ and check both boxes and let it run. It fixes my issues every time without formatting the card.
I had that problem a while back with one of Verizon's updates after 2.2. Reformatted card. worked fine in other phones but still said same thing everytine I put it back in the dinc. Ended up getting a new SD card then all was fine.

Is anybody else experiencing repeated failure of micro SD cards? EVO has been rooted and working great since last year. Suddenly, in February, my 32GB sd card failed on a reboot from flashing an early CM7 ROM. The Message is "SD Card blank or has unsupported filesystem." I called Sandisk and they sent out a replacement. Two weeks ago, same failure. Called Sandisk again and they are reluctantly sending another card (supposed to arrive today). In the meantime I was running with my 8GB that came with the phone. I just installed the stable CM7 release, restored data via clockwork and BOOM! SD card failure again. So, is anyone else getting this? Three SD cards in 2 months is kind of extreme. I'm trying to determine if it's the hardware, the ROM, or a series of bad cards (unlikely).
Some additional details:
All cards are Sanddisk
Recovery is ClockworkMod 3.0.0.5
HBOOT is 0.93.0000
Card is not readable via a card reader
its a bug with CM7
Thanks. I searched the forums, but was unable to find anything. Do you have a link to a discussion about it? Thanks.
sorry i dont have a link, it was some thing i read. a simple reboot was the suggestion and it worked for me also. good luck to you

I have had a similar problem with my 32 gb card.
Patriot card, Amon Ra 2.3, hboot 0.76, card worked in my laptop, and now is recognized in my phone, but Titanium backup will not recognize any app data elements
Delete the LOST.DIR on the sdcard while in recovery. Tends to fix it.
I posted this in one of the accessory threads, but it probably belongs in here.
------------------
I got a lexar 32gb class 10 microsd about a bit over a month ago. The first one worked great for about 3-4 weeks, then I started getting data corruption. Reformatted, copied data back, lasted 3 days. Now mind you, I always shut the phone down properly.
Rma'd it, got the replacement. Lasted all of 2 days before file corruption began again.
Lexar insisted I send my old one back before the send a replacement out. Fine. This ordeal took nearly 10 calendar days. During this time I had the stock sandisk 8gb class4 card. The data copied to the lexar is identical to that which was on the sandisk. Only difference is, I had no corruption what so ever with the sandisk.
Thus far, the conclusion i've drawn is that these bigger cards (or faster?) don't seem to work well as a virtual hard drive. They may be fine for storing pics or mp3s. However, the evo uses the sd card more so as random access read/write type storage, with the card constantly being updated by receipt of email, and other system programs/processes. Maybe this is what does the card in.
finally someone with the same problem as me...i thought i was the only one my 32gb card does the same was there a fix for it??
My 16GB Transcend card just died a couple of days ago. Sending it in today for replacement. I can access most folders from a USB card reader, but the larger folders can't be accessed.

This is actually very interesting. Earlier this morning I was thinking about App2SD and started looking into using it, and saw comments that peoples cards were getting nuked after using it (albeit only a few people). This kind of jives with the above quote... but take that sentiment with a grain of salt, admittedly I'm still an Android noob.
To those who are experiencing corrupted card issues, are you using App2SD?
Wrathx, I am set up with an ext3 partition using the dark tremor's a2sd scripts. I only have the apks on there however. The rest of the /data content (config files, databases, etc) is still on the phone's internal memory - for the same reasons above. I figured the internal memory is better (faster?) equipped to handle ever changing content. So in essence, once the apk is on the ext3 partition, it's accessed as a read only process.
My 8gb stock sandisk card is partitioned identically to the way the 32GB was, 32mb swap, 512 mb ext, and the remainder as /sdcard. It's also being used in the same way (only apps moved to it, no other content). Again, no issues what so ever with it.
Now, the the cache and dalvik cache are both set up to use the phone's internal /cache partition (for reasons above). I mention this because dt a2sd script gives you a number of options on how to set this up. Some people may have their cache and/or DC on the ext partition in addition to possibly having the actual /data content including settings on there as well.
so is there a fix r is everyone running into the problem getting a replacement???
When my SD card failed I took it out and put it in my husbands phone ( LG optimus) and let it power all the way on then took it out and put it back in my evo and it worked perfectly after that. It's a 32 gb sands....hope this helps

Just blew up card number 4. This one was a brand new SanDisk 32 GB. It failed when I powered up the phone. Just as a precaution I did not do anything out of the ordinary other than put some music on the phone. Did not transfer apps to SD. I'm going to restore to stock today and exchange the phone as a precaution. Since there is no clear evidence of the cause (even though it only started happening since switching to CM6/CM7) I may just go with straight stock root for now. I'll update if that causes any failures. I seems to only take a couple of weeks to get a failure so stay tuned.

has this worked for anyone? Once i reboot i just get 'blank sdcard.' this is the 3rd card that got hosed for me. all 16gigs. really wondering if its the hc cards, cm7, or just my phone.
My repeated failures turned out to be a bad slot on the phone. I would unroot the phone, restore stock, and exchange it. Since getting a replacement I have had no issues.
Hey guys I just wanted to ask u all a question bout upgrading sd cards on the Evo. I just purchased a Lexar 32gb class 10 sd card from Amazon. I still hav the stock 8gb card that has all my data....music,movies,music videos,custom roms,kernals amd so on. I hav heard that some people are having problems with changing their cards. So my question is what is the proper procedure to getting this transfer to be successful. Is it better to format new card thru windows or phone? Do I need to partition the new card? What is the easiest procedure to transfer my 8GB card stuff to my new 32gb card. The reason Im asking is I dont want to corrupt the new card in anyway...as u all kno they are NOT CHEAP!!! I just want the transition to workout smoothly with NO problems. Any advice wud b much appreciated. Thanks Yall!!! Evo runnin MikFroyo v4.61 w/ netarchy-toastmod-4.3.4-cfs-havs-more-nososbc...overclocked to 1152mhz.
Copy the contents of your current card onto your computer or an external drive. Shutdown your device. Remove your current card and replace it with your new card. Make sure your device supports the 32 GB size. Reboot your device. Many cards already come formatted, however, it wont hurt to reformat it to be sure. When your phone finish booting up, go to the SD card and phone storage setting within the menu. Select unmount SD card. After it unmounts, the option to format it will appear. Select format. When finished, select mount. Back out of that menu back to your homescreen. Connect your device via USB to your computer or external drive and transfer the items you copied to your newly formatted card. Reboot your device when you're finished. You can also format from your computer and from within recovery. Take your pick.

If am not wrong EVO supports max 16 GB and EVO Shift is 32 GB
^You're mistaken, the EVO does support the 32gb.
Says so on the HTC support page for EVO
Whew, you had me scared for a moment... I just ordered the same 32 gb microSD this morning. :]
I've been through 2 lexar 32gb cards. Within a matter of weeks to days, I was getting data corruption. Not sure if it's limited to the lexar class 10 cards, or any class 10. It would appear to function fine at first. At some point during the day i'd go to check my email and get a sd card mounted in read only mode message on the status bar. Rebooting would usually not help. Had to hook up the phone to the pc, mount the sd in recovery, then run a chkdsk. I'd typically get many many corrupted files.
Now mind you, i'm always careful to shutdown properly, only mount the sd when recovery. I've come to the conclusion that there is some incompatibility issue either due to the size, or perhaps lexar's ability to be downward compatible with the slower speed devices (I think the evo can only take advantage of up to class 6 devices).
Lets hope you have better luck than I did, but after multiple corrupted files, I'm back with the stock card, which has caused no issues at all (besides being low on space).
i have 32g patriot class 10 card and it works great for me. i just transfered my old sd card stuff onto my computer via the card adapter it came with. i inserted and formatted my new card into my phone. and transfered everything from my computer tomy phone via usb.
Ditto on the formatting with the phone. Since i am using ext, it had to be via the phone as I don't have the right tools to do it in windows.
FWIW, with the initial lexar card, there were no problems for nearly 3 weeks. With the replacement card they sent me, issues started showing up 2 days later. Could be my phone is less tolerant of media quality than others..
one thing you need to remember when copying the files, is to hit the option to see the the hidden files on your sd card, if you dont your phone will have glitches because it will be missing those files, because when they are hidden they dont get copied
Hate to hijack here but it's along the same lines.
If I don't listen to music or take a bunch of pictures what if any difference will I notice upgrading my class? Sorry I am coming from a Vibrant that had 14gigs internal and the sc card was purely optional.
I was thinking about just getting an 8 gig class 10 if it would make a difference.
pc to dupe sd card?
Could you just copy the sd card using an adaptor to your pc hard drive, then copy the files onto the larger sd card, again using the adapter in the pc. then install the new sd card into the phone? I am new, to this, i'm just askin.
blairan...I think you wud b safe to do that but u must format the new sd card first via phone(itself) or thru windows before any transfer of data is made. My question was simply that I hav read that many people hav had complaints bout corrupted files being present thru their new cards. Or problems with "read only" errors and not being able to access things on the card. If u are rooted and are running a custom ROM that allows Apps2sd to help free up internal memory on ur phone then u wud also need to partition the card as well to allow that. I just dont understand why their have been so many people having these problems with the 32g class 10 cards.
blairan...Im pretty sure u wud be safe to do that but if it is a new card u must make sure it is formatted first via phone itself or windows before u transfer anything to it. My question was simply I dont understand why so many people have complained bout corrupted files and or read-only errors on the 32g class 10 cards. Problems that seem to arise days or weeks later after installing new cards. I wud really like to get to the bottom of it and find out why.

If anything, you'd probably notice quicker loading from apps that you've moved to the SD card. But admittedly, video, music, and photos are the places you'd see the most tangible improvement.
Doug,
I've tried this several times (I think I'm up to double digits, now) on my rooted Evo running the stock ROM. After I transfer all the files and reboot, several apps are not installed and the phone says it has a low amount of space. I've tried restoring a Clockwork Mod backup as well and I get the same thing. I have everything backed up in Astro, but when I try to install the missing apps, the low memory issue prevents them from being installed. Should I remove all my apps and start over? Should I un-root my phone and do a factory reset? I'm so frustrated I'm about to do the latter.
I'm upgrading to a 32GB class 10 card and I just can't figure it out. Any thoughts?

No, you do not need to unroot, but I do recommend you start from scratch. Since you already have the contents of your card backed up to your computer, go into recovery and re-partition and re-format your card. In amon_RA select "partition SD card" from the main menu. You will be prompted to set a size for 3 different things. Insert a zero each time. Doing so will allow you access to your entire card. Afterwards, copy the rom you want to use to the card via the MS-USB or the Mount USB option, if using ClockworkMod and flash it. Your paid apps will be listed in the Market after you've logged in with your credentials. Your unpaid apps will have to be redownloaded and reinstalled unless you have them backed up to Google's servers or backed up with Titanium Backup. Anyway, you will have a clean install of your rom, a clean install of your apps and a freshly formatted and partitioned SD card. If you still get the low memory error afterwards then I am assuming you have too many apps on your internal memory and thus, you will need to move many of them to your SD card to free up your internal memory. There are tutorials available to learn apps2sd. Anyway, I hope this helps you.

Hi...
This is my first post here.
I have a problem with my SD Card.
My SDCard: 32GB microSDHC, some application like music player and gallery sometimes can't read file on my ext sd card (but my file manager can do it flawlessly)
Furthermore, sometimes it shows PREPARING SD CARD on top of the screen, although I don't even do anything. I tried to re-mount it again. But the problem still sometime occurs.
This problem started happening when I changed my stock rom to Ressurection Remix, I thought this problem occurred because of the ROM. so I change it to AOSP. But still... the problem still existed. So then, I changed it back to my stock ROM (with restore option in CWM)
But yeah... Nothing happen.
Any idea?
P.S.: Sorry for my bad english.
extSdCard/sdcard 1 issues
I have a Note II N1907 (ATT) running Liquid Smooth with a SanDisk microSD ultra 32gb. I have been trying to figure this issue out since I bought this phone 2 months ago. I screwed up the original card that I transferred from my old phone some how by trying different things to make the phone recognize it. It worked fine in my HTC Vivid. I have root and am able to use root options to try to access this card of installation, but the best I have been able to do is use it for storage. And I have to manually move things to the card, because most apps do not acknowledge that it is there (can't see it). TWRP recovery can see it after I did my first ROM Flash, but I have to use internal memory for my first ROM Flash, because recovery mode was unable to mount extSdCard.
Is there a kernel I can flash to remedy this. I am no developer, but I think the problem is that the internal memory is also SD in type. I have noticed that internal memory shows up as SDcard0 (zero) and the after market sd card is sdcard1. Maybe the phone automatically defaults to the first sdcard and ignores the other (because it is only designed to have one sd card).
I am sure others have hard this problem with this phone. Thank you for any help you can offer..

As soon as I saw your reply I scanned for the words "Sandisk Ultra" and then I knew this was your issue.
I had a lot of SD card corruption with this brand and searching a lot on the web I found many stories of people having the same issues as I did.
My 32Gb Sandisk Ultra was the cause of many of my problems. 2 months on with a Lexar 32Gb, no problems (touch wood)
Hello everyone.
My main issue for a few months has been the microSD card. Before I unlocked the bootloader, rooted and installed custom ROMs, my SD card worked fine, which was a SanDisk Ultra Class 10 32GB. After doing those things, my microSD card (or my phone) has been suffering a problem where it either corrupts or it disappears from the configurations of the phone, even after buying a SanDisk Ultra 64GB microSD card. I even unrooted, reinstalled the stock ROM and locked the bootloader but this keep happening.
This is incredibly frustating, because my main use for the card is Spotify, Netflix and Youtube Go! (I like to download everything on the highest quality possible) and every time it corrupts or dissapears I have to format the card and download everything once again. I even tried formatting it for internal storage but it dissapeared out of the blue other day just like it happens when it's setup as external storage.
Does anyone else have the same issue or know any fix to this?
It may be a hardware issue with the sd card reader

And only Motorola would be able to fix it?
A hardware specialist could, it's not just limited to Motorola workers.
I have similar problem/s
A. It takes a lot of time until card is ready
B. After it shows as ready, it can dissappear after a few min.
I u reinsert it, it takes more time, and sometimes fixes the issue.
The weird part. If it is ok, it will work like that until next reboot.
I really dislike this phone.

You don't need to format it
If it says sd card corrupted when you turn the phone on simply remove the sdcard (whilst the phone is still on) wait a few seconds then put it back in again
This works if formatted as external storage - not tried as internal as I don't see benefits in this

It says SD card corrupted while using the cell phone. Like, let's put this situation:
I had downloaded all my Spotify songs in the highest quality they allowed, listened to them while coming back from University on a Tuesday night. I put my G5 to charge during my sleep. When I wake up the next day to go to work, I cannot access any of the music, because suddenly my SD card disappeared from the cell phones (if I go check in the settings, it says 24,59 GB instead of 84,06 GB). After a few minutes, the SD card re-appears but says it's corrupted.
Since creating this thread, I haven't added anything to the SD card and I never got the issue again, so I'm pretty sure it's something with the way Spotify files work.

Have you tried connecting your sd card to the pc and check for the available space ? If it does then copy the data to your pc, format your sd card (ControlPanel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management>Disk manager).
Then re-insert the blank sd card into your phone and see if it shows up.
