Let me start out by saying that I have searched for any threads that have covered this, and have come up empty.
This has happened twice to me in the last two months. Running task650's V.9, which is an awesome ROM. I've got a Lexar Class 10 32gb card. Twice in two months have I booted up and the media scanner would show a broken sd card notice. I tried booting the phone without the card, and then re-installed the card. Same notice of bad sd card on boot.
At this point I took the card and stuck it in a laptop, which generated a "can not open due to corrupt or unreadable file" and "reformat drive" or something like that. I was forced to format, losing photos, vids, and TiBu folder. I synced to Dropbox and got the backup folder re-installed.
Any ideas about what could have corrupted the card? I suppose the card could be damaged. I paid good bucks, as it is not a low end card. Replace the card? Any guidance would be appreciated.
I have a Lexar Class 10 32GB card. Same issue, after first time reformatted and same thing happened a week or two later.
I did an RMA with Lexar, think there is a 1 year warranty. Got a new card, been working fine the past several months.
Ok. Thanks for the input. I've got a Kingston Class 10 on the way.
I was hoping it wasn't in the phone hardware.
Thanks, I just reminded myself to do a backup of that card itself to my PC.
Sorry to hear about your problem though.

Yeah, I lost some New Years day photos and vids with my wife. I'll NEVER find her in that good of a mood again!
It makes me wonder about my decision to place my TiBu folder on the external card, along with Nandroid backups. True, it syncs to Drop Box for TiBu but do I need the extra headache of wondering if my card is going to get smoked again? I suppose I should be backing it all up to pc..
I'm not sure but it seems to be a problem with the phone and class 10 cards.
My first one was a 16gb class 10 micro sd that one day just decided to stop working (lasted a month or so). Couldn't access it via the phone or PC.
So I went out and got a 32gb class 10 and after a month or so again it stopped working
Knowing this I refused to buy a class 10 card again. I went to Walmart and got the cheapest 32gb micro sd (Sandisk class 4) and so far so good. no problems at all
Lost everything I had too on the first 2 cards so learned the hard way to do backups to my PC.
Not the class, it's probably the brand. Some brands have terrible quality control, especially if you go for a cheaper one. I have one from Amazon Basic and it works just fine. My brother uses one from SanDisk with zero problem.
Class 10 is also newer. The technology to manufacture these is not that old. I suspect some manufacturers still need to refine their process.

Posted this on similar thread here, but want to make sure people know it's a problem:
Got a similar problem here.
Transcend Class 10 32GB Card
Works in PC, HTC Desire - no probs.
Put in Galaxy S2, it starts Media Scanning, a few seconds later reports SD Card Damaged, requires formatting.
It's right - take it back out (again, umpteenth time!), put it in PC or HTC - card is "damaged". (Nothing permanent, can reformat.)
Samsung support claim to not know anything - mind you they "play dumb" about the camera "pink spot" issue, until you challenge them to get real...
Oh, dear!

Buy a 500gb external hard drive for like 50 bucks they're cheap now. Backup everything to it once a week. Never lose data. Profit.

Sounds like a brand issue, but have you ever tried checking the drive for errors?
Given that even your PC gives you a "damaged" message, it may not work. Once inserted, go to "My Computer," get to properties, and check for errors (enable the "automatically fix file system errors" option). In the past, this has corrected "corrupted" SD cards for me.

The only corruptions I have experienced on this phone were when using MTP to transfer files from the PC. Since I stopped using MTP and use only USB Storage mounting, I have not had any more problems.
I've actually experienced this twice. Both times flashing to AOKP. I'm not blaming AOKP but just saying. The first time even my PC wouldn't read it and it needed to be reformatted. The second time my pc could read it and after nandroiding back to shostock2 it was fine.

The other day my battery died completely and the phone shut off. I plugged it in the charger and went to bed. Well the next day I find all my files aren't being read by the apps. Gallery sees no pictures, settings sees no ring tones. I formatted the sd card and when I Download a ring tone it still can't find the file even though it's there in root explorer. What happened?

Also...when you open your app drawer, then go to "files" ( or the file app you use) , do you see "external sd" as a folder anywhere in your file structure ?
And next question....did you format to a FAT32 file structure on your external SD ?

Found the possible problem...
The CM thread is alive with reports of your same issue. and based on what I just read, the fix varies greatly, and the bug reports are mixed between users.
Long story short, if you can get a rom to your internal SD card, you can flash a fresh copy to the device and restore the connection.
I've read reports of data loss when the device is "completly" dead on power. And even when the phone is shut down, the battery still provides some power internally. and when gone, the data is messed up ??? (cant confirm this)
Try this first >>>>>>>>>>>>> using the "exact" same rom you have now,simply flash right over the top of your current build. As this will likely fix the broken function of the device.
The hard part is getting the rom to the internal card. and this will need to be done with a PC, then move it to the phone for Flashing in CWM.
The other solution (and my personal favorite) is to use another rom. I have used CM for years, but I'm not using it right now because of the bugs they are working to fix, and the s-pen.
I'ts your call, but at least try the rom flash first. (the same one you have now, no wipe, flash only)
thats the best guess for today.....g

Hello i've the same problem on Stock JB 4.1.1 almost all the times I wake up the phone from standby i see. SD was removed..... and then Preparing SD Card. Is there a sw or hw problem? What can i try to solve it?
Thank you
Hi, I've got exactly same problem. I'm on stock jelly bean 4.1.1 not rooted not moded in any way. Card 33gb sdhc class 4.
I have formated this card few times in phone and still same thing happens.
This has never happened on stock ics firmwares.
Has anyone got a solution for this?
Please post your thoughts/opinion.
Thank you!
This seems to be an issue with the card controller itself or the controller drivers, I've been trying to fix it for ages and can't seem do any progress on it though. There is a possibility that it's ahardware fault of the phone.

hi, what brand is your memory card?
---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 PM ----------
just been speaking to samsung rep over the phone, they said that if this is not samsung branded memory card they can't provide any support for this issue... very dissapointing!
This has happened to my sd card too. Took plenty of pix yesterday and after that this "Preparing SD card", add also "blank SD card" notices started to pop up everytime. Got scared for my files, fortunately, this morning, I was able to detect the card from the PC. I Backup files and restarted the phone. The same notices. Decided to format the card from the phone but still the same. I just kept the card in the phone. Guess what, this afternoon I could again access the files from the sd card--that with formatting from the phone. But it alternated with the above mentioned notices.
So, has anybody already validated that it is an HW problem?

Same problem here,i am thinking our Quad core cpu is burning the SD card slot!
I have notice the cpu is laying right under the sd card slot so when our quad core gets high temp,it slowly burns our micro sd card.
This happens to my moms s3 and mine too,might be a failure from SAMSUNG.
This happened to me as well, Stock JB 4.1.1, with a (presumably) genuine Sandisk 32GB class 4 card. It began after I updated to JB, first with "updating SD" every time I woke the phone from standby, then frequent errors saying the SD card was corrupt, and finally that it was blank. I tried reformatting but the SD card eventually became unreadable in either the phone or my PC - it simply wasn't recognised at all. I replaced the SD card and I haven't had another issue but I do wonder if it is just a matter of time before the errors begin again.
i have spoke to samsung rep again, and this time lady was great help but i need to send my phone to their repair centre for a software reflash, which is different to phone reset.
and if the failure will repeat after this, ill have to send it again but on the third occasion ill have new replacement.
hopefully itll get sorted by just reflashing.
ill keep you updated if you're interested.
thanks,

I had the exact same problem with my 32GB class 10 sandisk card (original, I think), after 3 months of use.
I got a new card and the problem is gone. I thought it was a faulty sd card, but I seems i´m not the only that had this issue... Maybe it´s an hardware problem on our gs3?
Please keep us updated :good:
PS: I tried my old card on 2 stock roms and CM10, so i guess it´s not a software issue. I alse tried to format my card multiple times and no luck.
But it´s wired that h2testw did not show any errors on my card!
I have been using a SanDisk 32GB class 10 for about 3 months and everything was perfect....until I started experiencing same issues as mentioned: Sd card blank, sd card error, unsupported format etc.
First I thought this was caused by custom kernel, but after flashing the stock kernel I was still having the same problems.
As this nasty error keeps happening repeatedly the sd card becomes unreadable and I ended up formatting the card in a pc.
However, I found out that it's not necessary to format the card. All you have to do is mounting the card in another device/pc and then back in to the phone (without formatting).
Anyways, I had enough of that sh*t so I removed the card. A couple of days later I put the card back in phone and it's been working perfectly ever since.
So at first the card worked flawlessly, then later it was blank/unsupported/removed for a week or something and now it's back to normal.
I haven't installed or flashed anything different than before so I guess it's a manufacturer hardware flaw.
I hope this headache doesn't happen again.
PS: My friend has a gs3 as well and we have identical sd cards (bought at same time and in the same shop). However, he NEVER had a single error with his. So how can this be explained???!!
Hi,
Just a quick question. Have you been using infuse car dock and started to experience memory cards issues afterwards?
For me this only happened in stock jelly bean. Flashed back to ICS, problem solved.

I thought it might be isolated to me, but a Co worker with an S4 is experiencing the same thing. I do have a ROM, but I saw this on rooted stock as well.

Ok, after buying a cheap and corrupted 64gb micro sd card, I went and spent the money on a 64gb sandisk card. It works just fine. Now, I am rooted and have synergy rom build 104 which is also running fine. I noticed before I flashed the rom that cwm wouldn't recognize my external sd card. I read up on that and found that cwm won't read cards formatted to exfat. So, I formatted the card to fat32 and remounted, transferred all my music back onto the card. Everything worked just fine until I plugged my phone into my computer. I was able to open and navigate through the files like normal, except when I went to open the music folder where all my mp3s were. I tried this on 2 different computers and on both the computer froze with the sand timer. The phone itself was fine, my music player(poweramp) was and is able to play the files with no issue. Also, when I unmounted the card and put it into a card reader and then connected the card reader to my computer and voila! Everything was fine, I was able to open the music folder and scan through the music files. I am not sure what the issue is. Can anyone shed some light as to whether this is a phone/rom issue, a micro sd card issue, an mp3 issue? Any ideas would be appreciated.
That sounds like a bad sd card. Have you ran a checkdisk on it?

Hm, been searching around for this exact issue. Coworkers S4 with this exact SD card has been getting the removed unexpectedly error. Reformatted a few times, restarted phone, error comes back. It's in my Note 2 at the moment for troubleshooting, and so far so good, but this makes me move more toward an actual SD card issue in combination with the s4, and not the phone itself.

I called them and they are going to exchange it out for me. The weird thing is that I didn't get any damaged card error messages on the phone itself. It mounted it as soon as I popped it in. Even after formatting to fat32, it mounted right away with no issues. It only happened a couple days after I transferred all my music onto it. Is the free replacement they give you a newer card or newer model number?
+1 to the above. SanDisk told me they have a new version of the 64gig card with updated firmware, specifically for the S4. Package tracking shows mine is to be delivered on Monday.

So when this card tanks, I have to drop the big money on a card specifically made for this phone. Is this a problem with existing cards or did Samsung do something that required this firmware change?

They told me that too. My guess is it's due to the mass recall of the chips for the S3/S4. They said it's not present in Tablets so my 64GB in my tablet would be fine.
+1 problem with Sandisk 64Gb UH-1 card. Unexpected removal error. I am writing just for statistics. Just got my new Verizon S4 - and have problems...
FYI - I'm having a similar issue with a Samsung 64GD card. Got it to see the music for a while yesterday but after a reboot it can no longer see it.
Update, I received my new card and just popped it in. My phone automatically formatted it to exFAT. I'm not going to try changing it to FAT32, but is there any version or way I can get cwm to recognize the card in exFAT format? I tried TWRP, but when I flashed a rom it soft bricked the phone so I would like to stick with cwm.
