MicroSD Card problem

When I put my microsd card my HP does not seem to recognize it. I tried inserting the microsd card into my family's desktop computer (a lenovo running an AMD processor) and it read the card and opened it automatically. Is there a specific driver update that I need to get for microsd cards?

Hi,
Does it read NORMAL SD cards ? Do you use any adapter with your microSD card ?
Regards.

Microsd card problems

Hi. My blackberry pearl 8120 had been reading the microsd card fine until I connected it to my computer last week to transfer some pictures. Now the blackberry won't read the sd card and my computer won't even pick up my blackberry, with or wothout the sd card in it! Any ideas?
Thanks
Paul

Pcopechu,
We'll need to seperate the issues. 1) your phone does not read the mSD card 2) your PC does not does not detect your BB
Please attempt the following to check one of the options on the your Smartphone:
To go "Options" > "Media Card" > and ensure "Mass Storage Mode Support" is turned "On"
This may resolve both issues, but if you are still unable to connect your BB with your PC you may want to try the following: attempt another USB port and the uninstal and reinstalltion of the Blackberry Desktop and Device softwares.
Hope this helps,

4gb microsd card problem....

I have a micro SD card came with the phone E75 and my computer does not see ... I've formatted telefenul, I removed the password and still nothing ... so? (Insert a disk into removable disk) .. this is when I double click over .... please help me!

It could be corrupted and it could be broken. If you have a micro sdhc adapter, you should try connecting the card straight to your computer to see if the pc finds it. - If it does. Try formating it from your pc.
If you have a spear sdhc card or if you can just borrow one from a friend, try it in your phone to see if it will read other cards to make sure it's not a problem with your phone. You should also try your card in another phone if possible.
If other cards works in your phone and formatting the possibly broken one through pc won't help or cannot be done, you will have to buy a new one.
If your card gets found by pc and formatting works, but still your phone won't aknowledge it. - It could a sw matter or a hw matter. I've seen a few posts telling that a soft/hard reset fixed it, but before you even think about that - you should try to eliminate wether it is your phone or the card that is the problem.
If the card seems to be fine and it looks like your phone is the issue, a soft reset (wiping your phones memory) could might be an idea before taking it to a Nokia care point.

Lumia 1520/AT&T: What is the best MicroSD card opt...

Hello,
I am writing to the Nokia forums because I have a doubt on which 64gb MicroSD card I should buy for my Nokia Lumia 1520 (AT&T model). I want to use this card for photos and video recording at 1080p up to 30FPS.
Doing some research, I found that for best results I need a Class 10 MicroSDXC card if I don't want the video to skip during the recording if writing the video directly to the card as I record. Apparently I also have to look for the UHS-1 designation aside from Class 10.
Therefore, I went shopping around in Amazon.com and I have narrowed down my choices to the following three cards.
Sandisk 64GB Class 10 UHS-1
Transcend 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1
Sony 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1
Out of the three choices which one provides the better option? I am leaning towards the Transcend MicroSD card, but would like to get a feedback from Lumia 1520 owners.
Michael
Nokia Lumia 1520 | Windows Phone 8.1 "Lumia Cyan"

The sandisk is the one I use with no issues whatsoever

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%.

Curve 8310 fails to read microSD card

Greetings,
I bought a Blackberry Curve 8310 last summer and it worked fine until November of last year when the phone failed to read my Micro SD media card. Thinking the media card was the problem, I have bought a new media card a few months ago to try fixing the problem. The problem still persists and I need help getting this fixed.
I currently use Blackberry 4.5 Device OS. Under Options in the phone's menu:
Media card support: on
Encryption mode: none
Mass storage mode support: on
Auto enable MSM when connected: Yes
Total space: 1.8 GB
Free Space: 1.4 GB.
This means the phone knows I have a media card but just cannot read it. For pictures, only the pictures I saved onto the microSD card using my computer can be seen, but pictures I took using the phone doesn't show up. When taking pictures, the camera indicates "File system out of resources". For music, all the music is visible, but when trying to play the songs, it doesn't do anything.
I have tried everything from turning off/on the phone, removing the battery to do a hard reset, not downloading any applications to see if they were the cause, and formatting the media card for blackberry use. I have even reformatted the phone 5 to 6 times and installed a clean new OS onto the phone and the problem is still there. The only short-term solution I found in fixing this problem is when using the Desktop Manager to backup my data on the phone. After backing up the data, the phone will recognize my media card and I can access it fine for about 2 to 3 days. Then the phone fails again and I have to keep backing up my data to get my phone to work. Now I am very tired of repeating this process. Either I get a long-term solution or I need a new phone (I believe I still have warrenty).
The phone is great but this problem is getting on my nerves. Someone please help me!

Nokia Lumia 1520 video recording on Microsd card i...

First off, I have a Nokia Lumia 1520 for about one month now. I love the screen size and everything. My picture/video recording to phone memory works fine. I have recently purchased a Class 10 Sandisk Pixtor 64GB microsd card from Best buy for video/pictures storage due to this device having only 16GB of memory.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/sandisk-pixtor-64gb-microsdhc-class-10-memory-card/1299201.p?id=12190475...
Picture taking is fine writing to this card. However, I noticed that on all video recording mode (720p to 1080p), the video would sometimes skip and lose a few frames here and there. For example, when i try to record a video of a kid running, the video playback will show the kid run across but would jerk or freeze a bit during his run (almost like the phone is too busy doing other tasks during recording). Playing the same videos on a computer show the same result which means the video taken were bad to begin with. My temporary fix is to switch video/picture recording to the phone storage itself but that defeats buying the sd card in the first place.
Anybody else having this issue? I couldn't find another microsd card to test but i wonder if the phone itself is having a performance issue with sd cards in general. Should i engage with tech support from Nokia?

It is quite well known that Class10 card are overkill on a mobile phone and in many cases have been proven to actually have worse performance when compared to even Class4 cards.
Class10 cards really only make sense in (high end) DSLR ca,eras where itis a requirement the shots can be written to the card fast. In practical use the class only indicates the card cab sustain a transferrate of X MB/s and with that in mind a Class4 card even will be plenty fast for your mobiel phone.
Due to the fact a Class10 card is basically overspec for the hardware it may even cause timing issues.

How to sync music to the N8's MicroSD card

I bought a 32GB MicroSD card for my N8 so that I had enough capacity to store all of my MP3s. Unfortunately I can't convince Ovi Music Player to sync music to that location. It always tries to sync the music to the N8's 16GB internal storage area despite there not being enough capacity to do so.
Is there any way to configure either Ovi Music Player or the N8 to use the MicroSD card exclusively for the music library? It's making me very frustrated.

Putting Music on ANY Nokia phone is very simple !! All you need to do is make sure the music has artwork embedded before transfer and the track and album info is correct. Once the music is in a state where it is fit to be put on the phone, it doesn't matter if you sync with Ovi Suite, Ovi Music, Windows Media Player or whatever. !!
/t5/Nseries-and-S60-Smartphones/Album-art-in-Music-Player/ta-p/948321
Whilst I hear what you say, carman, just search for the number of threads relating to the problems many people have (and I have had corrupted libraries, album art missing, etc, and I am a fairly experienced user) just trying to get music into a library. IF it was working, as it should, then the facilities provided by Nokia should just transfer the music in a easy standard way, complete with artwork, to your desired location, and you should end up with a working music system and a completely updated working library. There should be ONE recommended way of doing it, which should be fairly automatic, simple, reliable, safe and should just work. That situation does not exist.
Now, I am not saying providing flexibility by providing other alternatives is not desirable. What I AM saying is that Nokia should be able to say - "if you do it this way, then it will work correctly." From the number of people who have problems with music transfer and libraries, it is obvious that this message has not reached the mass of the users. Whether that is an inability to provide such a feature, or an inability to communicate what it is, and how to use it, Nokia is falling down somewhere. To be honest, after trying to transfer my music to my sd card, unsuccessfully, and then getting advice to go into the file structure and delete files, I gave up and just loaded it onto the phone. Why should an end user (most of whom, like my mother, are not as technically competent as me) need to start searching for and deleting files just to get their music library working? No wonder the restrictive practices implemented by Apple have been lauded (although I don't like that company because of it!). At least they have made their product relatively user-friendly, which is a BIG plus when you are dealing in this sort of area. Not everybody is capable of dealing with the sort of problems people seem to encounter doing something as simple as loading music (in fact, probably the majority ....). It should just work! This lack of ability to 'keep it simple' has been the downfall of Nokia. Their developers provide superb bells and whistles, but seem not to have grasped the fact that bells and whistles are fantastic to have, AS LONG AS THE BASICS ARE ROCK SOLID. And from my experience, transferring music to an sd card is no way a simple or rock solid process, without you doing a lot of digging to find out how to do it successfully - hence all the posts. KISS!

Can't transfer files from PC to BB 8800 microSD card

I have a BBerry 8800. As part of trying to resolve the problem described below, I have recently upgraded the OS to v4.5.0.81 (Platform 2.7.0.78) (Rogers network version).
I recently purchased a 2GB microSD card for this Blackberry. The BB seems to recognize the card (when I go to Options/Media Card it shows 1.8GB total space and 1.8GB free space). As per other posts here, I have set the other options in this area to:
Media Card Support = ON
Encryption Mode = None
Mass Storage Mode Support = ON
Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected = YES
However, I cannot seem to transfer files from my PC.
The BB does not appear as a "device with removeable storage" in Windows Explorer. Nor does it seem to appear in the Roxio Media Manager - in the devices area it only shows BB internal memory.
Does anybody have any suggestions on what might be the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Here is a bit more info that I have been able to confirm. Perhaps this will help someone identify a solution to my problems:
1. I was able to get my home PC (Windows Vista) to see the Blackberry as a removeable storage device. This is with:
Mass Storage Mode Support = ON (and the latest USB drivers)
and I was then able to transfer files to the BB as needed.
2. However, my work PC (XP Professional) still cannot see the BB (either through Win Explorer OR through Media Manager). However, if I set Mass Storage Mode Support = OFF, then Media Manager sees the Media Card and I can transfer files via this mechanism.
Any further thoughts on what might be going on?

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

Cosmo 3 not recognizing microSD card old content

I have a question/problem similar to one previously posted here but slightly different.
I upgraded from LG Cosmo 2 to LG Cosmo 3. The microSD card I was using in the Cosmo 2 had pics and ringtones on it. When I insert the card in the Cosmo 3 it does not recognize any content on the card. If I connect the phone to my laptop in USB mode I can see all the pics and ringtones on the card, which is in the phone. I tried moving the card content to the phone memory but it still did not recognize the files. If I move a new pic from the phone memory to the card, the phone recognizes that. How do I get the phone to recognize the old content on the card? Thanks.

Different phones (even updated models from the same manufacturer, like the Cosmos 2 to the Cosmos 3) use different formatting; copy the data to your computer, then format the card in the phone (erasing all the data), then copy the files back to the appropriate folders on the newly formatted card. The phone should then be able to find the files on the correctly formatted card.

Help / FYI - MicroSD card the source of a constant battery drain in BB10

I'm not sure if this is a 'Z10' specific issue as I don't have a Q10 but I've been trying to track down the source of a constant battery drain on my Z10, in my case, it is having a microSD card inserted.
Some more info:
- Model: STL100-3
- OS version: 10.1.0.2354 (current version of OS but the constant battery drain has existed on all other versions I have tried).
- Carrier: Virgin Mobile Canada
- MicroSD card: Sandisk Ultra 64GB
Essentially, BatteryGuru has always shown a constant 0.4 watt drain on my Z10 which means my Z10, even if I am not using it at all, will at most last about 12 hours.
I narrowed it down to the microSD card after doing the following:
- eliminating the mobile network as the source by removing the SIM card and turning off mobile connections.
- eliminating EAS accounts as the source by removing all 4 of my email accounts on the phone
- deleting essentially all my apps (even with no third party apps installed except batteryguru and no customized accounts like Box, the 0.4 watt drain still persisted).
I then thought it might be the encryption setting but encryption is turned off on my phone (for the phone and the media card).
I also thought it might be the amount of files I had on my SD card (20GB's of music, 10GB ov videos, 5 GB's of photos), but even with the card reformated and empty the 0.4 watt drain continues.
But if I remove the microSD card, the battery drain stops with BatteryGuru reading 0.0 watt drain (saying it will give me 112 hours on battery). Even after re-adding my email accounts and leaving wifi on (but not the mobile network), my battery drain is still 0.0 watts.
Since I have always had a 0.4 watt drain on my Z10's (I'm on my fourth right now), I know it isn't unique to this phone and I've been on at least three different OS's so it's not unique to the OS. The only constant I guess is that it has been a SanDisk 64GB card.
I'll have to see if I can buy/borrow another microSD card to see if it happens with another size capacity but hopefully this can be fixed in a future update??
Regards.

Hello
I have the same issue with the same card: a SanDisk Ultra 64 GB - also same measurements using Battery Guru. I changed to a 32GB Transcend Micro SDHC class 10 and the battery drain is much less but still existing.
I checked the SD type number, found Transcend SD cards on the Transcend website especially recommended for mobile phones and ordered yesterday a 32GB and 64GB.
As I am on vacation I will not be able to test the cards for battery drain in near future but it is very interesting that I had the same issue with SanDisk SD on Blackbery Torch/OS7.
As far as I know these issues are caused by SD cards not entering certain idle modes when unused.

Heinz
Interesting about the cards not entering idle mode. I'm trying to find another card to try. The SanDisk Ultra 64GB is technically for mobile phones but if it doesn't work right, well... it doesn't work right.
This has been posted on CrackBerry to and it seems others have had the same problem though a couple of people pointed out they have not had that problem (one of those stated he was using a Q10 though and not the Z10).

MicroSD cashing problem with Symbian belle update

It’s only been 14 hours since I have updated to Symbian Belle, but after a short period of usage I noticed that my music would lag for 0.5 - 3 seconds, sometimes once, sometimes a couple of times a song.
My song library was located on my MicroSD 16GB class2 card that has worked in this N8-00 for the full 1.5 years that I have it. I now have formatted the internal and external drives and put in the same one folder of music. I listened to the songs and what I found out is that the songs on my MicroSD are acting up. The phone completely locks up for 0.5 - 3 seconds and continues. Its seems to happen moor to songs with an higher than 256kbps bitrate.
My problem with this BUG, is that it now happends with the update to Bella, and not to Anna or befor, therefor concluding that the software is not optimized as much for MicroSD card use.
Have you have the same problem since Belle, using an N8 or other device? Please post below.
3210, 3310, 8310, 7250i, N95, N95-8gb, N96, N8

Hi Rayhipkiss,

Well, I can definitely confirm that the Belle update is available for your product code. Other users facing the same issue mentioned that they had to un-install Nokia suite and re-install a fresh copy. You may also need to disable any firewall active on your PC (try this first before re-installing Nokia Suite).
All the best.
