REF: My SDCard Is Not Recognized Anymore.

Hello Everyone.

It is so weird. All of a sudden my SDCard is not recognized at all. I have a 32 GB Memory card and I never had this issue. Anyone else experiencing this problem and if yes what have you done to fix the issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidChicago:
Has anyone else had problems getting HD videos on YouTube to work? I did a clean install coming from a JB stock ROM... I didn't chose any of the YouTube options in the aroma installer.... Any suggestions? Thanks everyone...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Look back a couple posts and you'll see what I'm running....I don't really experience any lag at all when I'm playing Candy Crush (which usually lagged with almost every other kernel/governor combo I tried), however some things still have a slight lag for me, such as Subway Surfers for example...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
Cool thanks I'm going to try that right now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Can you be a little more specific? Does it show up anywhere? Maybe in Settings, Storage... or are you even able to access any of your files in a file explorer? Is the Sdcard accessible from your computer? Worst case scenario, if it was me, I'd probably move everything off the Sdcard, reformat it on the PC, then first check to see if the phone recognizes it again.....then....start to put your files back on the Sdcard little by little.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jdelta9889:
Maybe bad sd card??

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1355528

No problems with sd card here. Rom is perfect.. if thats even possible!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ghost Protocol:
Apologies! No, it does not show up in Settings --> Storage & Can not access the files or see the SDCard via File Explorer. I even rebooted the phone into Recovery mode and the same thing. WTF

I will try your suggestion to see if that will help and re post.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

EDIT & Added Info:

Well, I have tried it on a laptop and NO luck! I borrowed my girl's SDCard and it was recognized right away. In the laptop and in the mobile phone. I am not happy right about now, but at least I know it is not the phone. But can anyone tell me how my memory card can go bad so easily and all of a sudden?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
No problem....also, keep in mind that if you're going to reformat the Sdcard, it will be worth it to do a "full format", as that simple choice can prevent a whole lot of problems from possible happening in the future! It takes more time, but definitely the better way to go!

Edit - Hey GhostProtocol, I've been working on computers for more than 15 years and I have to tell you....I have seen weirder things happen! For all you know, the Sdcard might've been somewhat defective to begin with, severely reducing its "already finite" reads and writes!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Nope. Only happened for a little while and now it seems fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
Zeus kernel pegasusq/cfq overlocked to 1620MHz has removed all lag in games for me if anyone else has the same issue I had

anybody has inverted google talk that works on this rom. mine was lost when my sd card got borked....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] o0BlacknesS0o:
My app packs in the themes and apps section contain an inverted talk and several other inverted and/or Xparent apps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bowtie4x4295:
How can I get swype to work with this rom? Have used it with Beans in the past. Cant uncheck or deselect the factory one. I like it ok, but am used to the way swype works more. Loving this version very much.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Download Swype from the store or from the online beta. You do not deselect the stock keyboard, you enable third party keyboards only. If you're having issues with the Play Store version of Swype well then that's a problem with Swype that you need to email them about. Swype beta works great and I'm replying to you while using it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bowtie4x4295:
I did d/l it from Swype and installed. it is selected in language and input, preference are set. It's still not the swype keyboard. I am sure I must be missing something. Never had this issue in the past

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Does your keyboard not look like this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Go to Settings/rom control and scroll to the bottom to select "keyboard icon." Then go into a text field (sms, browser, etc) so that your keyboard pops up. Now tap the keyboard icon in your notification bar. How's that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidChicago:
Clock Font:

Is there any way to get the notification clock font to be themed as your system font?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ghost Protocol:
Okay... This Is The Update To My Issue:

I had to purchase a new 32GB SDCard!!! :crying:

Also, I found out, during my research to why this is happening, that their is a known issue with microSDs from SanDisk. SanDisk has owned up to microSD cards causing problems with Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets. Of course, I purchased a Kingston microSD (CLASS 10) this time around.

On another note... I did purchase a 64GB microSD first, but returned it for the 32GB microSD before walking out the store. The 64GB microSD was not recognized by my Samsung Galaxy S3. So my question is - Does the Samsung Galaxy S3 support 64GB microSD?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Yes, the 64 gb cards ARE recognized by the S3, as long as the card is formatted as FAT32, NOT exFAT, which is what they are formatted as by default I believe!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ghost Protocol:
So the 32GB microSD cards are of a different format by default? I am able to put that into my phone w/o formatting first. Do anyone have a 64GB microSD card that can confirm this???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Yes, this is by default for both 32 and 64 respectively.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Check out this thread...

All about the Sdcards and the reasons for having them formatted as either FAT32 or exFAT.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pchpoochie:
I have a 64 GB sdcard and wat I had to do in order for it work was put it in another fone like the droid RAZR and format it with DAT fone first in order to work in mine sg3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Yep I got a 64GB SanDisk card and formatted it to fat 32 and have never ever had a problem with it being recognised on any Rom tw or AOSP.

ever since I flashed over the latest release I seem to be having issues with text messages in general.

they'll work fine for a while SMS/MMS... then out of nowhere my SMS stay in "sending" AND I also don't receive anyone's text messages.

Tried wiping, clear cache, clear dalvik... still have that issue. Again, this is only after the latest flash over. Using the standard Samsung SMS app

Last time I installed 50% louder volume boost I almost lost my hearing and reflashed without it asap. What I would like is 15 or 25% louder volume

you cant adjust it? or lower the phones' volume?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
Yes, you can constantly adjust all your volumes, but I couldn't live with that, so I followed the instructions I found in this thread and it put it back to normal without me having to flash anything!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] burntrat:
thanks for the feedback. ill probably leave it out then.

I finally got my 64gb to work. I formatted. Fat32 on my pc . When I installed ob phone it only recognized 128mb. Then I went to settings/storage/format and then it recognized 59gb. It seemed hit n miss to me but I got it to work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikeew83:
Where is the voice activation for apps selector I can't find it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trook:
I use ease us partition to format my 64 but keep in mind it'd always going to show less than advertised. For example you have a 16gig internal but in reality it's more like 11....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sipock97:
I reflashed and took it off. Kind of distorted the sound for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDriller:
I love the volume booster. Definitely something that makes this ROM top notch (besides everything else).

7000 lemons? wtf!?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StormFreak:
I also don't mind the volume booster. At first I was not a fan, but once I got a handle on where I should keep my volume sliders, I like the extra "oomph" it can provide in louder situations.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pcar1947:
Yeah i used ease to format to fat32 and as i said i got 59gb , which i am cool with . So now i have 59gb extsd and 26gb internal. I cant imagine ever needing more than that.

As beans says its a phone !
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] howellcp:
How long should first boot take after flashing? Just moved to the s3. I'm use to about 3 to for mins. It's that still right?

I have a quick question, how do you take a screen shot on this Rom? I hardly ever use it but found myself needing it this morning.

Curious, I got a fresh install. I got the Clock, and AlarmManager having heart attacks right now. I didn't even use the clock app or open it the whole time yesterday and it kept popping up in Partial Wakelocks. Also just general horrible battery life. Was struggling to get 2hrs of screen on time.

Kernel: KT747 4-11 build. REricks kernel setup. Peg/noop.

GPS off, Location reporting off. Using Lux. Have great signal cause got a free Network Extender to use

I have no idea why FB or Kik did that. They never done it in CleanROM, Carbon, LiquidSmooth. Only this rom as FB, Kik, Android System shown this high usage. About to bounce back to my LiquidSmooth backup

Battery Life

I have seen a couple guys post about bad battery life, but haven't seen any further discussion. I just restored back to B14 as I was getting terrible battery life with B15 and lk kernel. The revert back seems to have fixed my issue. I am guessing not everyone is having this same issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
Yeah I'm on build 15 with Zeus kernel and my battery life is hard to tell cause I have an extended battery but is definitely worse than stock. Also has anyone noticed on this ROM any "a" and "e" next to each other make an "æ"? Is it supposed to do that? I'm using default font. Also asterisks are middle height instead of high up

I'm using the Zeus kernel v2 and am getting pretty good battery life. Waiting for him to get out his v4 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
Why v2? Is there something wrong with v3? Yeah same I wonder why he hasn't uploaded it yet. My ROM and kernel are probably still settling in though, I've had it for about 2 days, so hopefully battery life gets better

Sent from my Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aypeeootrek:
I'm on 15 with the lean kernel from the aroma and my battery life was ridiculous yesterday(in a good way). Was at about 30 hrs with 3 hrs screen time and like 25% left. Was gonna see how long I could make it but needed to charge it for work.

Also I will note I have the gorilla gadgets extended battery. But I was flashing all kinds of roms the past few weeks and this is back to the way it should be for me. Was on xylon nightly last week and had 8 hrs phone use and 2 hrs screen time at like 10%. But this is my first time running beans and it just loves my phone lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Nothing wrong with v3 that I know of... my phone just seems to love v2 but I did try v4 on his hyperdrive rom and it was nice. v2 plays nice with beans b15 to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
Ah I'm liking v3. Overclocked to 1620MHz I get no lag anywhere. My battery life is probably the only problem but if I can get through an entire day with heavy usage it really isn't an issue

So I decided to try Nitroglycerin33's new elementalx test build which works nice but I want to restore my nandroid of beans and when I go into twrp it wont show me my backup on internal storage but if i use the file manager in twrp i can see my backup. Any suggestions?

Maybe I will redownload beans and then flash and then see if I restore my backup
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] savagebunny:
Damn just tried to get Beans 14, worked fine but can't flash the 4-11 build of KT747. Just freezes and reboots. Now to try the MOAR rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vmancini3:
I was having similar issues..only I was using the 3-27 build of the KT747 Kernel..here's what I did...

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik-cache

Install kernel

Wipe cache again

Wipe dalvik-cache again

FIX PERMISSIONS! ! ! !

Seemed to do the trick! Oh, and I remember seeing someone posting about an issue with the BlackBerry lockscreen..? Try that out...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aypeeootrek:
I believe it's because the 4.2 roms create that 0 folder. You need to move the backup from the old twrp folder to the new one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfballz:
Ah, makes sense... I forgot about the extra storage folder it makes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] termleech:
Just flash faux123 kernel and you won't have any more issues :) With his intellidemand and b15 my battery life is pretty insane. I'm between .75% and 1.25% drain / hr idle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDriller:
:::bad:::

I get about .75 and 1.25% drain in 12 hours of idle lol

And it will run circles around anything with faux or lk

Got 1 hour 6 mins of screen time, 38 mins searching for signal, 6 hours 37 mins in low signal(1 to 2 bars), 6 hours 37 mins of up time and I have screen at full brightness, absolutely no WiFi or 4G and am only down to 96 percent on the zero lemon battery... That would be 88 percent or so for those of you on a stock battery

:p

7000 lemons? wtf!?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jborch8:
Hey fellas, I know there's a KT747 kernel thread out there somewhere, but have not found exactly what I'm looking for in terms of Kernel Guide for Dummies. I'd like to know what each governor is tailored for, io scheduler to match the governor, and voltage tweaks to implement. This Rom is buttery goodness, and I want to take full advantage of the ktweaker by implementing some customizations to the kernel.

Beans beans, a wonderful ROM, the more you flash, the less goes wrong, the less goes wrong, the happier we be, so flash away and donate to beans :)

super slow, horrible battery life. what is happening?

Since I upgraded to #3, I have had horrible battery life and the phone is extremely slow and runs really hot. It's to the point where charging it can barely keep up with use. Please see the pics attached. Something in the system is killing my phone. Any ideas?

I would start with a fresh rom, then slowly install apps until you find the culprit, or start uninstalling apps until you find the culprit.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I think its clear that the culprit for the battery drain and slow down is in the "system". It one of the apps that is part of the list shown in the batt stat details in the screenshots. Please look at the screenshots from my original post. It's blatantly obvious. It's also not an app I have installed as they are not even showing up in the batt stats. Plus everything runs great in Build #2 (which I have switched back to for the time being).
