MicroSD Card Corrupts and Restarts Centro

Hello,
My Verizon Centro has been randomly corrupting my SD card after I sync and when saving a photo to the card. If I remove the corrupt card and then replace it in the centro, it will then reboot infinitely until I remove the card and reformat it with my PC. The card info page shows a seies of boxes by the little sd card symbol and ptunes claims I have removed the card. If I explore the card with my PC, all the files have boxes for names and will not let me explore the files themselves as the directory syntax is incorrect. Sometimes pTunes will play the last song played but will not find any other songs. I have been removing my card for syncs or just formatting the card and reinstalling the music data to a "MUSIC" folder on the card almost daily. Anyone else having this problem? Help please.

1GB MicroSD -card corrupted, can't be formatted

Hello everyone. I'm afraid I'm in need of urgent help regarding my new Nokia 5700 Xpressmusic I bought 2 days ago. A 1gb Nokia MicroSD memory card was shipped with it, as a freebie. Everything worked great first, but then, when I was transferring video material to my phone, using Nokia Video Manager on my Windows XP Professional, until the process froze while downloading. All my attempts to revive the process were futile, and I had to close the program. This of course left the memory with a "suddenly" canceled download, and all music files and previously downloaded videos became unaccessible, and the memory became non-existent both to my phone and to my computer. Checking the memory thru' the phone, I found out it was corrupted, and needed re-formatting. I reformatted it, and it started to work and was again recognized by my computer as well. But it acted all weird, it's capacity was reduced by approx. 50MB, etc. I then started to download all the music on the memory card all over again (w/ Nokia Music Manager), and this time the download froze with this program. Again, this resulted in a corrupted memory. This time, when I tried to re-format the card, it froze many times in the middle of formatting, and eventually, after several attempts, the process bar went to around 95%, and then flick, the phone blacked out and rebooted itself.
I don't have any memory card readers on my computer, so the only connection between them is my phone. But, since the card is naturally unrecognizable by my computer, I guess there's nothing I can do now, right?
I'd really appreciate if someone informed me on my rights for refund regarding the memory card, if no means of fixing are possible at this point.
Thanks for reading this longy message, and please do reply if you know anything that might help me on this case

MicroSD card jammed in Palm Centro

Well, I just recently got this phone about 2 hours ago from a lady down my street. I went to put the SD card in, I think I might have put it in backwards, I'm not completely sure, but the card is jammed into the slot so much that I can't even try to retrieve it with tweezers. I was thinking about taking the back off and trying to get it out that way, but I only have a phillips precision screw driver. Can someone help me out?
Post relates to: Centro (AT&T)

Yeah that doesn't work, since it was kind of jammed in diagonally (don't ask). I got it out using a knife and tweezers but I ruined my SD card. I don't have another card to try out to see if it was my SD card or the slot that was defective.

New BB Z30 Freezing, Docs are unable to Open, microSD card automatically formatted after restart, unable to open Some Pictures, Long time for Charging

I purchased a new BlackBerry Z30 recently from http://store.shopblackberry.com/store/bbrryus/en_US/pd/productID.298806900/categoryID.66826600/paren... and my Phone Model number is STL 100-5. I also purchased a Z30 Leather flip case manufactured by BlackBerry. I am using my BlackBerry Z30 along with the Z30 Leather flip case.
1) Within the first 2 weeks of receiving and using the new BB Z30 device, I noticed a problem of screen not responding some times. My phone has been freezed at the lock screen. My phone is not responding to any key except for the power button. So, I had an option of only restart/Turn Off my BlackBerry Z30 device. All the time whenever I had this problem, I have to restart my device in order to make it work properly again. I complained about this issue with BlackBerry Technical Support. They assisted me to reset the device to factory settings by taking a full backup. After reset also, I still had the same issue.
2) I am using Sandisk Extreme microSD card of 32GB with my BB Z30 device. Some times due to the restart option, all the data which I had on my microSD card is being erased and is filled with an unknown files.
3) I'm also unable to open some pictures which I have taken using BlackBerry Z30. As I observed, most of the pictures which I taken using Blackberry Z30 are unable to be open/view them after a few days. Still, I am able to observe the properties of those pictures. They are in JPEG format only.
4)Also If I create a Word Document on BlackBerry Z30 using Docs to Go Application and saved it. After closing that particular document and If I try to open it, the document file is not opening and projecting me an error of "This is not a valid .Doc file", but while I check the properties of that particular document it is in .doc format. I tried to transfer the file to my laptop using bluetooth. After a few seconds (approx 2-3 seconds) automatically the transferring is cancelled by the BlackBerry Z30 device. However, I tried to transfer the file within that short time using Bluetooth. While I tried to open it on my laptop using Microsoft Office 2013, the file is displaying with a squares of upto 4 pages while I had a content in it of 3 lines only. While I opened my file using Microsoft Office 2013, there is only squares available in that document.
5) My new BlackBerry Z30 is taking a long time of approximately 6-7 hours to charge the device from 10% to 100%
I request someone to help me with this issues. I would like to thank everyone who can help me with these issues in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

On 7th of Jan 2015 I made my device to factory reset. Also I removed microSD card from my device. As I observed for these 3 days, one time while I received a missed call, I tried to have a look at it. I observed that my screen has been freeze at the receiving call position and its not responding. I tried to close and reopened the display of my device with a flip case which I'm currently using for my device. At this time, after 3-4 swipes to unlock the device, again its back into working condition.
About Documents, I'm able to create, save and open the documents without any issues till now.
About Pictures, they are also working fine without any issues.
I also observed the charging time as approximately 3 hours for charging the device from 14% to 100%.

No luck DLing music on my Centro microSD card

I just purchased a Kingston 4gb microSDHC card, which I understand should be compatible with the Centro (verizon).
I upgraded the Centro to the latest software version 1.03.
I tried downloading one song into PocketTunes v. 4.0.4 following the user manual, through WMP.
The first song loaded onto the microSD card, but once I switched to the phone app and then back to PTunes, a message said that "The card that contains the song has been removed".
I then tried formating the card on the Centro, and it said it could not format the card. I used a card format program to format the card on the PC, and that wiped out the one song that DLed.
I tried DLing other songs using the Sync cord, and it said it was successul but I see NO songs on PTunes.
Did they load onto the phone, eating up memory? I can't find them. If they are on the phone's memory, how do I delete them?
Any ideas on what's wrong and why I can't get the music onto the files?
Thanks!

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
If the songs are on the card, you might just need to refresh the library listing in PT. Depending on what "skin" you are using, either tap the music note icon in the lower left of the screen on the Sleek (Blue) skin, or tap the Open button on the built-in skin. It should scan your card and present you with a list of songs that it finds. Songs should be located in the /audio folder of the card. I've never used Hotsync to move songs to the card, but rather I use a USB card reader and just drop them into the /audio folder on the card.

Corrupted microSD card in 6120 classic

I have Nokia 6120 Classic. Today I've opened my music player and it did not find any songs that were on the micro SD card. I got the card out and when I inserted it again it said that it's corrupted and wanted to format it. After the format I got it out again and then back in. Again corrupted. No matter how many times I've done that the result was the same. I've connected it to my laptop via an USB cable in pc suite mode. When I've copied some mp3s and tried to read them they were corrupted. I've got the card out, put it in my laptop, formated it in fat32, inserted it again in the phone and copied some songs in data mode. The music players found them, added them in the music library but when I restarted the phone I had to add them again. And it adds the song rather slowly.. and the browsing of the files in the phone browser is slow So.. should I buy a new micro SD card or it is the phone? I bought it 2 weeks ago. The card is new too. What should I do? I've tested it under Windows for bad sectors.. anything else. How to be sure that the card is faulty, and not the phone?

"6120 cannot use 4GB SD cards"

Cyndi6858, help is here! We'd be happy to help figure this out. Just to be sure though, the Droid Maxx should not have an SD card. Is this the Droid Razr Maxx? How did you add the music to the device? Are you able to see the files and folders located on the SD card or device when plugged in?

4k video recording and microSD card speed

Hello, I am currently trying to find what microSD card type Xperia Z2 needs to shoot 4k videos smoothly. Is UHS Speed Class 1 (U1) card with about 30 MB/s writing speed enough to shoot 4k videos with no problems at all? I am just asking if Sandisk Ultra series are enough and should I bother with Sandisk Extreme for example with 45 MB/s writing speed or with Xperia Z2 4k video recording I won't see any difference?

sandisk shows better compatibility with xperias
also beside of writing speed you must format your sd card with "exFAT" format,caues of 4GB writing limit

MicroSD cards and E51

Hi, Guys!
Previous e51 was stollen, that's why I without any thinking ordered another one with the same configuration: e51 + 4 Gb Transcend MicroSD HC card class 6. And I was badly surprised when I have copied some music on this card and could not even normally update music library. After some operations(like entering "Gallery" or trying to save photos from "Camera") phone even was rebooted himself. I've tried to install the latest firmware, have formated card using mobile phone function. At last I've copied files to/from flashcard using obvious card reader. Everything is looks great, when this card and phone are separate. What's to do? I've checked as phone, as flash card. I don't want change this phone or vendor, because I really loved my previous e51.
Dear Nokia, please, help!

I bought my Nokia E51 a month ago. I've read a lot about the microSD incompatibility issue, and I was a little bit confuse... In the end I've bought a 4 GB, class 6 microSD(HC) from Verbatim which is working perfectly!!! I tried all sorts of data transfer (via USB with PC suit/data transfer, via Bluetooth, and also directly with memory card reader) and everything works smoothly

TS1702 I am updating my IPAD to version 5.1 and the update has stopped before completion. What is the procedure. If I stop the update or restart the IPAD will the update be corrupted and also the IPAD operating system.

I am updating a new IPAD to the latest version from ITUNES. The update is not complete and has stopped. What is the procedure to restart? If I close ITUNES i get a message that the IPAD is updating. Will closing the application cause the update to be corrupted and thus the operating system? Will the same occur if I power the IPAD down or disconnect it vis the USB port?
Help!!!

You may also want to go to:
~/Library/iTunes/
This is done by going to the "Go" in the Finder and select Go To Folder. Copy and paste:
~/Library/iTunes/
In to Go To Folder selection. Look for a folder called iPad Software Updates. Delete anything in that folder and re download the upadate.

First try restarting your Mac into "safe mode", which will run the equivalent of a Disk Utility "repair disk" operation. If your Mac shuts down during that process, you'll have to try something a little more powerful (and more expensive), such as DiskWarrior.

Lumia 630 and saved maps On a microsd card

hello all,
I am currently using a lumia 630 and i am having the following problem... I travel a lot around europe and i want to have all the map information about europe installed to my phone. The problem is that the phone's memory is limited and if i download all the information i want there will be no space left for anything else!!! Is there a way to download all map information to a microsd card???
Solved!
Go to Solution.

At the moment there is not. I use the 630 as a secondary phone and would love to use it for Maps but just like you I hit the memory problem. I have all maps stored in my 1020, but that can't maintain battery for long journeys. Until they change it so that maps can be stored on memory card, the phones with 8GB memory are not good options for serious map users.

GS5 running 5.0 just master reset and deleted microSD card

My GS5 running 5.0 just reset while I was walking, it wasn't being used just held. The red Verizon screen came on the phone for 5 minutes then everything was gone/reset. Including all the data I had saved on my microSD card.

Thanks, I have changed my Google password. I had all my recent pictures/videos backed up to my microSD card. Figuring that was redundant and safe, I turned off the cloud service backups for pic/vids. It's really frustrating losing several months of pictures/videos of your first child, lesson learned.
On a side note 5.0 sucks really, really bad compared to kitkat.

Restarting airport after PCMCIA cardbus card removed and reinserted

Ok my problem is this. I have a 3rd party (buffaloTech G54 cardbus) 802.11G card which is airport compatable on a TiBook 667. When I travel, I take the card out of the machine after its asleep and re-insert the card before waking it up again. Every time I do this however, the system recognizes there is a card there but the airport menu says no card was found. The only way then I can get the computer to recognize the card is to restart.
My question is there a way to avoid this? (is it better to turn off the card and remove it before I put it to sleep then wake it and insert the card?) or is there a way I can manually force the drivers to reload via command line?

My question is there a way to avoid this? (is it
better to turn off the card and remove it before I
put it to sleep then wake it and insert the card?)
I would try that first.
