GPS Slot Replacement or fix - MTCB Android Head Units Q&A

Goodmorning and Merry Christmas to everyone!
Suddenly my GPS SLOT is going crazy, sometimes it reads the microsd and sometimes it doesn't.
I tried different cards and the result is always the same. I was wondering if someone knows how I can change it and which one I should buy.
I've seen many types on aliexpress but, as I said, donno which one choose.
My head unit is a EONON G2110F.
Thank you to everyone who will help me!

I might be having a similar issue. I noticed mine would not mount, and sometimes it would mount. I got it working now, but It has been acting up the past few days. I have a joying brand. I emailed joying to see what is going one, mine unit is under warranty.

The card is working in the left slot. The card in the right slot does not work.

4GB Card

I know the Dash doesn't support 4GB cards... However, anyone find a way around it? Shouldn't it be software based? My brother gave me a 4GB card that wasn't compatible with his Samsung phone, so I figured I'd try to get it to work.
Good luck -- T-Mobile attributes the endless-reboot-looping issue to using cards over 1GB.

i am using a 2 gig with my tmobile dash, and have no problems at all.. like the 1st post, i would love to see a 4gig card work.. good luck!
I use a 2 gig card as well, but had that endless rebooting issue with WM6 & 5 on my Dash. Fortunately, holding the END key during the bootup would jump-start the device; but that doesn't work for everyone. When I contacted T-Mobile support about it, they said they provide support for the device with a 1 gig card, and the endless reboot was a known issue with anything larger the 1 gig. Didn't stop me though FYI -- I've not run into the booting issue since upgrading my device to the HTC WM6 ROM -- though now that I've typed that, it'll probably start happening

i always though the device support was 2 gig.. but oh well.. yeah i am still using t-mobile rom w/wm6 when it was 1st released. (as we speak) i am getting ready too upgrade to the htc rom.. so i wonder if the device will handle a 4gig when using htc rom?
I haven't tried it so I don't know how the phone would handle it, but could you partition it into 2 2g or 4 1g parts?

I've been using 2GB card since day one ( Rogers S621 )
gone from original carrier's WM5 ROM -->> HTC generic WM5 -->> T-Mobile WM6 -->> HTC Generic WM6 ...etc
no problem whatsoever
my advice to those who have problem is:
When upgrade/downgrading ROMs ... take out the SD card & the SIM card altogether ...
leaving it in during the ROM up/down seems to be the cause for the endless boot
Nice try at a guess... but... nope. Had the problem from day 1 with the shipping ROM. This issue isn't always identical for everyone, and some don't run into it at all. Congratulations -- you're one of the lucky ones -- but thanks anyway for sharing your story

chaznet, i just finally made the switch to the ship rom (htc) and i havent seen any reboots.. i installed programs from the card and use it to use customize ringer for contacts... like the other poster said.. might try and take out sim and sd cardd..
Been there, done that... I'm not currently experiencing the issue, but, when I was removing either the SIM card or the SD card had no effect. As I said, pressing the END key during bootup got my device going. This along with the removing the cards, are solutions that work for some users and not others.

yes I have read the topic posted from others ... many things could be the culprit ... BUT DEFINITELY NOT BECAUSE OF THE SD CARD BEING OVER 1GB SIZE !! like you've indicated to be !!
heck !! even you yourself indicated what's causing the problem here ... not because of the SD card being larger then 1 GB !!

remove both altogether ... not just either/or
I've no idea what really causes it, that's just what T-Mobile support said, and you can never tell if they're feeding you a story or not. Thanks for your input though

I used to get the random shutdowns and it turned out it was the original battery that came with my T-Mobile Dash. When I switched to the 1200mAh battery I have had no problems whatsoever. I have, since day one, been using a 2GB card, so it can't be the culprit.
4GB cards are SDHC, not for Excalibur
4-32 GB cards are SDHC, a different, no backwards compatible format.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital_card
Hmmm, that might be the reason then. Thanks. However, as someone here mentioned; is there anyway to format the card into 2 2GBs cards in the compatible format?
Re-read the response, check the Wikipedia link, you'll find the answer has already been provided...

I can't see why not ???
when you plug your card into a reader ( might need an adapter for micro -->> SD size ..etc ). your card is read by the desktop as a separate drive .... use a 3rd party partition program ( partition magic ? ) and do it.
feasible in theory
I don't have a 4GB card to play around ... using 2GB is fine here

SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSDHC 16 GB

I have this microSDHC, and a serious problem, happens to the third time that when i restart my device, is result damaged and I do not see it from computer and from the device, the only way to use it is formatting can any body help me please?
Ps:actualy i,m using Valkyrie_v4.7 FireStorm,it can be caused from the rom?
happened to me exactly as you described.... I didn't know what to do... think i formatted the thing 2 times, but i couldn't get it to work.
so a lay off of it and used my 2GB Nokia microSD for a while... then i decided to check that sucker again, and surprisingly i saw that it worked... i think it got some bad sector (!!!!!) or lost a little amount of storage... but it is working perfectly now.
Mokhlesim!
My Sandisk 16 gb card stoped working too one day. I couldn't read it anymore neither on my HTC TP2 nor my desktops. It was replaced by the shop according to my waranty. The new one works fIne.
I had the same issue, then it couldn't be read or even formatted on any computer at home or work, I even had my Hospital's IT department check it out. But then I found this software and it found and reformatted my 16gb so that it was not trashed, and i haven't had a problem with the card in over a year. I hope this helps.

try going to the site again and go through and make sure you downloaded the right one, I think there are different formatters for different cards. It should work though.

Galaxy S3 Won't recognize any sd cards

Not sure if this is common or not but I have tried everything I can think of, and I don't see anything.
I have a Samsung Galaxy s3 (brand new, stock build) but everytime I put in an sdcard The settings>storage still says I need to insert it.
I have resigned myself to it being a hardware issue, but I would really like a more pragmatic response
WTF man after 4 years I break with my n1 for this?!?!?!

This. I had the same issue and it took me a little bit to figure this out.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I came here looking for answer to this issue and laughed before blowing in the slot fixed problem. Now why didn't I think of that?
Got a pre used Galaxy Appolo 15800 and it will not read from sd card. It knows the card is there but will not mount/unmount or format.
Went to shop and tried other cards but still the same.
I am told the phone was on contract to 3 network and althought it has been unlocked the shop man wondered if there was a feature set into the phone by 3 so that reader doesnt work when the phone is unlocked form their network.
along the lines of blowing into the slot, I cut a strip from an old credit card and wiggled it about inside..
Bingo........ all systems go!!!!!!

I simply cannot believe this!!... I searched and read countless XDA, AndroidCe*tral forums and tech (C-NET) blog entries just to find countless posts of failing/corrupted SanDisk 32GB Ultra cards (as mine) inside S3's guts. No other card was working either and was resigning to reflash stock ROM and take it so tech support.
An additional search try and came to this post... And still cannot believe a simple (but powerful) blow inside the SD card slot actually solved the problem!! Thanks man! You saved my day (and my S3, my SD card and a week using a crap replacement phone)! :good:

Hi all, I had the same issue and unbelievable, the nintendo method works quite well !!!
In fact if we put the sd card at the top of the slot and keeping it pushed, we can see the phone detect the sd card! so a little poke and then it's fine ^^
Holy Crap it worked!!!

This worked for me as well!

After an hour of searching every forum for ways to fix the same problem, I arrived here, with little hope of anything more than I had already found. I thought that it was funny, what you said. Then I said: "Meh, **** it. Let's give it a try."
It works. You are God.
*P.S. I use this website frequently to find fixes and updates, but I never really registered. Just so you understand how grateful I am for this. I know, I could have registered for an array of different reasons, but I want you to know that the reason I did it now is to thank you. For the fix and the laugh!
blowing doesn't work for me. formatting to exfat does.
thank god.
my workaround
Hi
it was twice succeeded for me
My s3 mini did not recognize SD card, but recovery was
Workaround:
remove sd card from phone
connect it to PC
do some copy from/to
attach it back to phone
Working!
I've tried everything said on this forum, nothing has worked. any other suggestions?

[Q] SD Card/App Issues?

Is anyone else having SD Card and App issues? I find that apps randomly disappear, and my SD card unmounts on its own, A LOT. About 3 or 4 times a day, with pretty light usage. My widgets disappear (on the apps that are now gone), and settings crashes if I try to go into it to view the installed apps. I've tried a reformat of the SD card, I've tried wiping/restoring the device (3 times now). The only way it seems to "restore" the missing apps/SD card is I turn the device on/off several times. It doesn't seem to have a cause, it'll just stop. It's quite frustrating, and is actually keeping me from using the tablet.
Anyone experiencing anything like this? Do I have a bum unit?

Indeed. Amazon. Found out HERE that there is an issue with some batches of SD cards. Sent for a return/exchange. Leaving the thread here so others can find the info if they have the same issues.
For what it's worth, I have the same card and so far I'm not having any issues whatsoever.

I do too but ours might not be counterfeit
I have the same card and have been using it for a couple months with no problems before this tablet but I'm having consistent issues with it as well as the OP! My problems are different as sometimes it shows nothing on the card, sometimes it will start copying from the card to the tablet and then fail.
After having these problems I formatted the card via the tablet with no difference. I bought this thru Tiger Direct 7-10 days before 10/10. Is this a good enough reason to exchange or do I buy a 2nd card first?

I used a second SD card I found lying around, works fine. It's an SD card issue. I sent it back, and just got my replacement now, we'll see how that replacement goes. I would say you should talk to TD for a replacement. It should at least help narrow down your issues.

currently im running a sandisk extreme 64gb no issues, swapped in the sandisk ultra 64gb from my s4 no issues, it wasnt till i swapped in the extreme pro 16gb that t started to act funny, mounting and dismounting...
I haven't had any mount/unmount issues.
The only thing I saw was after I inserted my SD card last night, two games (both Unity, btw), no longer thought they were installed on my tablet. Luckily, when I re-installed them from the Play Store, I didn't lose any of my save game progress ^_^

[Q] Sandisk 64GB Ultra Micro SD card not working

The PC can or can't read the card? Does your tablet read the card? If so go to settings and storage and try formatting it there first. Then try it in the PC.

i tried it first direct out of package into the tablet. I took a picture with the camera and I was greeted with "Cannot save to sd card, switching to internal memory" So i went to settings, the tablet seems to be reading the card, but not writing to it. So i formatted it in the tablet, still a no go. Put it in my pc and it works just fine. Back in the tablet, it reads, not writes. Back in the pc, formatted in pc, back to tablet, no go.

i tried it first direct out of package into the tablet. I took a picture with the camera and I was greeted with "Cannot save to sd card, switching to internal memory" So i went to settings, the tablet seems to be reading the card, but not writing to it. So i formatted it in the tablet, still a no go. Put it in my pc and it works just fine. Back in the tablet, it reads, not writes. Back in the pc, formatted in pc, back to tablet, no go.

UPDATE: I found a class 2 8gb micro. that worked just fine.... but i mean... id rather my class 10 ultra work...

I've been having the exact same Issue! It's a brand new samsung 64 g class 10 micro sd. Formatted on my tablet. Works when I add files on my pc but in my tablet I can't write to it, only read.
And when I download new apps with the card mounted it has errors, I need to unmount the card just to install an app.........
What did you decide? I can't work out if it's a faulty note, faulty card, or if we just need to live with it?

Damn! Turns out i got a fake too! I messaged the seller and i received a whole refund. I went to radio shack today. $49.99 for a REAL (haha) Sandisk 64GB Ultra sd card. They were very nice about it too. Had to go in the back to look for it cause there werent any on the shelf. As i was pulling out of the parking lot a screaming employee was waving one in her arms haha. Made my day.
Now only if we can get google to allow play store content to save to sd like my phone does.....
