[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] hayabusa1300cc:
yes this happened ALOT with my 32gb sd card. even got it corrupted and lost all my info doing a format.

since it hasn't happened yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] oscarthegrouch:
I had my evo do this. Even though some people were saying that changing the card helped, or most weren't having the problem, my deduction was that the card was moving inside the SD socket. Same idea as unplugging an external drive. If you did that while the drive was accessing, for whatever reason, it would corrupt the card. I permanently lost files that couldn't be recovered, even with recovery software. I stocked it up to a less expensive (quality) card and the card moving in the socket. Since the evo had a funky SD card socket and lock system, I tore a piece of paper, the same size as the card and folded it over and put it on top of the card. In that setup, the battery held down the card because it was on top of it. The paper took up the slack and made the battery push down slightly on it and make it less likely to move around. Problem never resurfaced. Perhaps put a piece of paper on top of the card before sliding it in. The extra thickness might make it less likely to slide around. Not too tight or you might have problems removing it or it might damage the card mechanism. Make sure the paper isn't too small. Like too small to get stuck in the slot after the card is removed. Just some ideas...

If this is the problem then it should be covered under warranty. It's workmanship and I'd take it in. Jimmy rigging isn't something you should be expected to do to use your device.

Same thing happened with my 32gb Sandisk Ultra when I had my GS3. I re-formatted it and it was fine for about a month....and then all of a sudden it became unreadable (nothing would read it). Sandisk had no problem sending me a new one. I lost a lot of pics, videos and music though.

Yeah it's a sandisk

Happened to me a few times, ended up showing sdcard error eventually so I reformatted with no problems since
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] youngpro83:
Wow. This has been happening to me for a few days. I just went to work and exchanged out my 32gb Sandisk for a new one. Hasn't done it since the exchange but I guess we will see since it seems to be a common problem with the S4 and not my SD card.

It was weird though because it said it was a bad SD card so I put it into another phone (S3) and it said the SD card was bad as well. I formatted it while in the S3 and then I put it back into my S4 and everything worked fine. The format didn't even erase my SD card. That was strange. I even attempted the format a few times because it kept saying my SD card was bad and needed a format. So I kept formatting until it stopped giving me the message. All of my stuff was still on it. I just decided to exchange the SD card today just to be safe.

I had issues with my 64gb SanDisk when it was formatted exfat. Since I formatted to fat32 I have not had an issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Enzium:
Ive been having this issue for awhile now too. At first I had a 16gb sandisk Class 10 formatted fat32 and it randomly would remove itself, formatted it to exfat and a few days later same thing. So I thought it may be a bad card even though it was only a few months old, went out and bought a Lexar 32gb class 10, formatted it via the phone before storing anything to it (formatted as Fat32).....few days later, unexpectedly removed again. I then formatted fat32 in my PC after unchecking the quick format box, worked for a few days and today it removed itself again....So at this point Im kinda at a loss? Im going to try the paper trick as suggested by oscarthegrouch, and see if that makes any difference cause this is getting pretty annoying. I also thought it may be a bug in the system but I recently updated to MG1 and this is still happening. Is this only happening to people that have rooted phones?

if it's a SanDisk then its a known issue.

I'm on my 3rd card. Contact sandisk support for a replacement.

This is exactly what happened on both cards before they died.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] denverjoe72:
I have this problem too. I have used multiple cards from multiple brands, including a 64G Samsung card and 32G Sandisk cards, also two other branded cards. All have the same problem.

I suspect either physical loss of contacts, or chip/radio problem.

There are many others with this problem. I thought I was alone.

There are many saying problem with Sandisk cards = NOT TRUE. Other cards also show this problem with unmounting randomly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] MatangaChanga:
I´m having the same issue.

I first had a 64GB Class 10 Sandisk and i got a message saying the card had an incompatible file system. Reformated the card many times, exFat, Fat32, etc, same problem.... Formated with Windows formatting tool, Sd Formatter, and HP Formatter. Nothing worked.

Decided to use a Patriot 16GB Class 10 card. Today I got the "Card removed unexcpectedly".

I guess it's not a Card Problem but a phone problem. If the problem persists I'll be forced to take it under warranty.

SD Unmount solved

Guys after months of following up the sd unmount problem on my SGS4 (I use 32Gbyte sandisk), I concluded that, whenever the phone gets hot, like during charging etc... the card is unmounted, probably it is a sandisk problem that can not take temperatures above 40Celsius.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] endwhysee.bk:
When this happens best start backing up all your files to a computer. That card is going bad . I had about five cards already. SanDisk understand they have problems with there card they just dont want to tell everyone. They have replace 5 card for me already.with no questions asked once I explain the problem. all the problem people are speaking has happened to me sadly. But I have learn that with a samsung (which is what I got ) is best to use samsung sd card. Since I switched I have had no problems. So far.peace.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] frankk1979:
Since there is no SD-Card option with the HTC One I noticed there are very little partitioning options in TWRP. Are there any other options available or features I'm missing. I'm asking this because I was messing around with s-off stuff and ended up having to do a factory reset with the ruu. After that I copied over my backup that I made before hand with TWRP. After unlocking, rooting and flashing TWRP again, I did a restore and noticed that it didn't backup any of my data (pics, music, etc). In the past, when I had the HTC EVO 3D it would back up my SD card (good thing I was using dropbox this time). So again am I missing any features or are there any other recovery options available for the Sprint HTC One:confused:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] youkosnake:
All of the devices Ive ever used twrp on do not backup media. Just system and data. Use superwipe to avoid wiping your media
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F2504x4:
Okay i did a search as well as the HTC tech i had one the phone and did not find anything that has

been discussed .

Just got my HTC One (liking it so far) it is still stock. I have pair both of my Plantonics 975 BT head sets

and the volume is is rather low in comparison to the Inspire , i would say at least a 1/3 less volume with some static .

The inspire has 2.1+EDR but from what i see the ONE is using 4.0 for BT and I am using 1.26.502.12 software. 4.1.2

With that info anyone else experiencing a similar issue ? Google is not showing anything on this, Tech support is curious as well and the engineering dept is looking into it..

If there is a thread on this please point it out to me ...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F2504x4:
just a update incase this thread comes up in search.

I went back to the AT&T Store, paired with another HTC ONE and i got the same result ,

low volume with both of the Plantonic 975's . I did try a newer but similar Plantonics Marque 2 M165 headset and it has

much better and clear volume. So It looks to be a issue with the BT stack that the phone is currently using, hopefully

the next update in 2 months (confirmed unofficially ) will have a fix..

So I've been using the Galaxy S4 for a little over 3 weeks. I'm coming from a Thunderbolt which was rooted and updated with its radios.

I travel a lot for work and go to the same locations (different days) every now and then. I've noticed that I lose my 4G connection and go to 3G when I USED TO have a 4G connection at the same site with my Thunderbolt. Has anyone noticed this occuring with their S4?

I feel like I'm not getting the signals I'm supposed to be getting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] itsdubai:
I had a Razr HD before the s4 that i have now and the HD was known for its very good radios. To my surprise, the S4's radios are on par or even better than the Hd
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jt25741:
I came from Mot Razr Maxx...worrying most about radio performance in buying the S4. The S4 does better in every regard......contrary to my old samsung phone experience (very old). I live in a fringe area with 1 bar or so.....on both phones. The S4 holds on to calls very well too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BusyPooping:
yes!!!! i came from a gnexus and then an iphone 5, and ive noticed that the radios arent as good. I was also able to customize the radios on the nexus the way i wanted to for 3g and 4g... but it seems to be worse on the galaxy s4

i dont know if radios came out for the GS3, but im hoping that with time, some will come out for this thing... and not the fm radios that i keep seeing

It could be carrier specific.....for VZW this has been my experience.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BusyPooping:
ehh, ive been on verizon for over 15 years.... and at my specific work for 7 years. I'd say i got the best cell signal with the iphone 5 (dont shoot me), but the gnexus is a close second.

i work in the middle of my building where there is barely any signal, so i kind of know what its like to move the phone an arm length up and finally send a text
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jt25741:
Interesting.....good to know. I guess this means these Motorola phones really didn't have good RF performance after all (despite reputation).....compared to iPhone etc.... All is relative I guess -- LoL

hahaha... not compared completely to iphone. I mean, in all honesty, i was able to get that one text message without having to worry; but noticed it when my messages weren't going through.

ON the other hand, my friend with a motorola can get a text message the next seat over which is only an armlength away
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Schoat333:
I had a thunderbolt, an it would always show 4g until I went to use it, then I would get no connection, and eventually it would drop to 3g. I think this phone just hands of the connection faster and smoother than the thunderbolt, and thats what you're seeing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zilla.:
This was also the case for me sometimes with the Thunderbolt. But then again, most of the time I was showing 4G at most locations.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordgodgeneral:
I've seen just the opposite, I've got the S4 and my wife has the Razr Maxx, and she's usually got one to two bars better then I do. It's pretty often when in a building I get bumped down to 3G but the Razr is still hanging on to one or two bars 4G. I haven't been too surprised as this is almost exactly the same signals as what I was seeing with my Galaxy Nexus.

I get significantly better signal with the S4 than I did with the S3. In my house, I can have great phone calls and decent 4G data speed on the S4 (2 bars). On the S3, I had slow speed on 4G and an occasional breakup on phone calls (1 bar). On the Galaxy Nexus, it couldn't connect to the phone network at all from inside the house (x on the signal strength)... A friends RAZR MAXX gets 2 bars and has the same performance as the S4.

I dont really miss it either. Extended standby is great enough, when i dont have my charger with me at night i use extended standby and my battery only goes down 1-2%.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Turn your 3G off, same result. Jesus there are much worse issues, random reboots, bootloaders permanently locked for some unlucky users (me). Every high end phone I use I see a shame on devs who worked hard for months on strict guidelines and crap pay thread wah wah. There will be minor issues with any phone. When you get a bigger fault like my rebooting or the partition error that causes some iconia b1s to brick themselves after software upgrade then complain. Until then buy an iPhone and shut up

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
yes, there are wakelocks from google services and android system, which you can not get rid off (at least I was desperately trying...)..you get it with all Sony Custom ROMs and all kernels, but also with CM and its derivates like MIUI...

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] spromper:
Yup, so i dont blame sony at all. My phone sleeps pretty good after .141 update. Disabling the facebook app and using a 3rd party app also helped a lot with that. That official facebook app is pure crap.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Google can be reduced by turning off "backup my data" and auto sync. As for android system those are necessary functions and it will always be there, the amount it drains depends on the efficiency of both the ROM and the parts (radio etc) in the device. Same goes for mobile standby, except this can be reduced by having 3G off. Basically don't use functions/apps you don't need, that's the only way to save battery
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
that's not the issue - I know how to save battery. My point: even if you stop all syncs, delete all data-apps, which might be rogue, stop all backup data stuff, maps connecting to Inet, etc. you still have draining the battery by these wakelocks! That's the first and only device I use (besides 2 Sammy Phones and one HTC device), where you can not stop wakelocks!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Sometimes there is just nothing you can do though. My battery life is good enough, every phone will have some wakelocks, for example tegra 3 devices are plagued by baseband_xmm_power, and my desire s had nasty mobile standby wakelocka
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
I agree.. My cheap Galaxy Ace (with GB) had a much better standby time with sync and data on. Anyway I think we are way off topic here and there doesn't seem to be a viable solution. So I'm out.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
Same with the galaxy mini. Its just that cheap designs have parts that don't perform as well, but performance demands juice ;) so the armv6 single core qvga/hvga designs with weak radios inherently use less power anyway, plus the roms are less bloated because of space issues. And yeah, way off topic, even if it does have some relevance

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] talan8484:
Can it be done? If so, how?

Here is the various information I have to far. The Verizon galaxy s3 uses both CDMA and GSM.

My father has a Verizon Iphone 5 he unlocked and put on straight talk.The iphone 5 uses both CDMA and GSM and is 4G just like my S3. Theoretically it should work the same, right? WRONG. I have yet to be able to find a site or program that can unlock my i535. Even if I could get it to unlock, would I need to also flash the cdma portion over to straight talk?

I borrowed the SIM card from a friends T-mobile S3 and without doing ANYTHING to my phone I was able to make calls and send texts with her SIM card in my phone,no data though.

The i535 has a "global mode" which essentially allows me to switch between the classic Verizon LTE-CDMA mode and a GSM mode for use outside of the U.S. Is that only good for making calls? do I even need to unlock my phone in order to use straight talk on my handset?

I have searched a ton of Forums and must be blind, because I cannot find a single how-to video or good explanation on how this is done. I HAVE found, however that there are a lot of people out there who are just like me who are trying to find out, and they get dead threads, mis-information and vague "It may work..." Any help or information that ANYONE can provide would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bbqsfire:
Yeah I don't see it as a priority item for any dev to create something so a great phone with the best network coverage would half work on straight talk. Straight talk has android phones appropriate for their network I would suggest selling your verizon phone and buying the straight talk phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bcrawf68:
what about flashing an AT&T rom?

Is the hardware the same between the Verizon and the at&t s3? Can I flash the at&t rom to my Verizon s3? Will it brick the phone for good or can I flash it back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RBarnett09:
Straight Talk runs the Galaxy S3 on Sprint network rather than Verizon. Your best luck would be trading the Verizon S3 for a Sprint S3 and going from there... or even trading the Verizon S3 for an actual Straight Talk S3. I'm pretty sure the LTE is a different frequency that you won't be able to get working right. I know there is a way to get a Verizon S3 on AT&T and T-Mobile with edge data... but not Sprint.

Long story short, I don't think it will be able to work unless you get either a Straight Talk or Sprint S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HypostaticOnion:
Straight talk is at&t, and t-mobile. Not Sprint
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RBarnett09:
Oh, I originally thought that but read somewhere that the Straight Talk S3 is run on Sprint. Strange.
