It's a memory card issue, please re-format your memory card using external SD/SDHC card reader via computer and format it using Windows Explorer (My Computer -> Explore -> Memory Card Drive Letter -> Right Click and Select Format (FULL FORMAT for FAT32 & Don't do quick format.)
Re-sit the memory card in the device and start the fone, do a hard reset and reinstall all ure desired applications. My advise is for you to ScanDisk the memory card every 1 or 2 weeks to maintain the good quality. Currently the appropriate SD/SDHC for Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is Class 4 and the best is Class 6.
Diagnosting your SD/SDHC card often keeps out of error and corrects lost chains which occurs while copy, delete, move activities. You may have noticed that SDHC memory cards are available in different speed classes (2, 4 and 6). Each class designation directly reflects the minimum sustained Data Transfer Rate (DTR) of the card.
- Class 2: minimum DTR of 2 MB per second
- Class 4: minimum DTR of 4 MB per second
- Class 6: minimum DTR of 6 MB per second
These cards are the perfect solution for today’s SDHC-compatible devices that run MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and other high-quality video compression used by HD and DVD video. Means the class 4 and 6 has the better quality ouput in storing your data.Most end-users are not aware of this.
As my personal advise and my personal experience, I never faced any problem using my device and the memory card.
1. Do not install large applications, such ad DVD movies > 500MB.
2. Run ScanDisk at least once every week.
3. Always plug-out your SD/SDHC which is connection thru device using USB cable by stopping the card process
   (Click the "Safely remove hardware" icon and stop the process)
4. Avoid taking out the SD/SDHC card from the device unnecessarily, let it be there and don't disturb it.
5. Install only usefull applications into the phone, dont dump things that u dont use much, if so .. use ure computer.
Solution Method
1. Use an external SD/SDHC reader and copy out all ure data's from the memory card.
2. As the oldskool DOS method .. C:\Format <memorycarddriveletter> Example: C:\Format E: (press enter) .. wait for 100% .. Format the memory card using FAT32 or alternatively, goto Windows Explorer -> Right click on the F drive -> Choose Format -> Choose FAT32 and select FULL FORMAT (Dont Use Quick Format!)
2.  Finally, move back ure old backed up data to the SD card and ure phone will work properly again, Insert into device and turn ON.
Thanks !
