It says I have a damaged sd card and wont read it

Lately my phone says my SD card is damaged and won't read it. After a while it will read it again. Now my phone will randomly tell me my SD card is missing even though it's in the phone and then once again won't read it and it takes me a ton of actually taking the SD card out and restarting my phone to get it to read again. Is it actually my SD card going bad or is my SD card reader on my phone bad?

Remove the card, and gently clean the card reader slot! If dust or particles get on connectors then it will mes with the reading!

SOURCE: My LG Chocolate VX8550 wont recognize micro sd card

Here are the steps I took:

  1. Insert the micro sd card with the metal plates facing you (that took me a second). Don't worry about the little push you have to give.
  2. Go to the Settings & Tools option in the Menu.
  3. Select *. Memory
  4. Selct 3. Card Memory
  5. Select Options while the bar is on "1. Memory Usage". The only option available to me was 1. Format and select that.
  6. It will ask for the phone lock code-if you have never set it IT IS THE LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER.
  7. The phone will format the card and put the file folders on it.
  8. Use the adaptor USB reader or whatever you have to connect it to the computer. Copy songs to the my_music folder.

for mp3 as ringtones:

  1. You should select the part of the song you like, and can add effects with this:http://www.mptrim.com/
  2. To set it as a ringtone, send it as an attachments to you [email protected]. It must be small to go through, around 30 seconds.
  3. You will get a text message, and select options. Select Save As Ringtone.

SOURCE: need to format micro sd card

It will be better if you use a card reader and put the SD card on it and format it using your computer so you can set it to FAT and that should do it....

SOURCE: how to put music on my lg shine 8700

your best bet is the lg website,register for free,should have all the info you need,cant remember if you need software but i have a 2gb sd card in my shine and that works fine,its basically just dragging music or pictures to folder in external memory.make sure card is in slot properly as sometimes if my phones knocked it comes loose and comp wont read it,also try formating it,but you will lose anything on it.could be usb as well,mine didnt come with one,the first one i bought just kept reading as headphones,once replaced it worked fine.you could try getting a bluetooth usb as that works as well,and i only paid 99p on e bay for one,bit slower but not to slow.
hope this helps

Phone says sd card is blank

I'd try it in a laptop or PC SD card reader. If the card still reads blank it is likely the data is corrupted. There are software recovery softwares many of them free that attempt and quite often successfully restore data from the card. If you can do this then save a copy on a PC and immediately format the SD card (FAT32).
Copy the saved data back to the SD card and reload in your phone to see if the phone can read it. If not, either the SD slot on your cell is damaged or the card may be damaged. A full phone reset should be your next port of call and then try the card again.

Sim card not ready

Try going to storage in the settings menu. See if it says mount or unmount SD card. If not just take out sd card n turn off phone. Turn on. Look in menu, see if phone recognizes there is no sd card. If so, good. Turn phone off. Remove battery 5 seconds. Insert battery and sd card. Turn on phone. Allow total boot process before manupulating phone. Go to contacts. If it doesn't read the sd card automatically then press add contact. See if it has add from sd card

Why wont my toshiba sd card read on my camera nikon cool pix ?

Make sure your memory card is an SD card and not an SDHC card. If it's larger than 2GB then it won't work with the 3200.

Laptop wont read sd card

You do not say, but before ejecting an SD card you should use the Safely remove hardware feature. If you do not do so you may damage your SD card, and you run into problems such as you describe.

Why won't my camera won't read the sd card I'm using?

8 gB is SDHC. Try less than 4 gB maybe even 256 mB to see if it will read those cards. But lately, all stores only sell HC cards. Try ebay, and they may charge an arm and a leg for old cards?

Computer isn't recognizing my Samsung PL120- Instructions have read that if you connect the camera via USB the program should automatically install. It doesn't. If i look under removable devices...

Use a card reader. Since your computer has a USB port, you can get a card reader that reads SDHC cards. This is exactly how I do it on my computer.

My HTC inspire all of a sudden won't read any of

Try using another SD card to see if that one will read. If so, there is a problem with your SD card.
But if that card is also unable to be read, and your phone is fully updated, there is a problem with the reader on your HTC handset. You can contact HTC for a repair or a replacement. You might even have some luck at the retailer where you originally bought your phone. It's a fairly new model.

Here's HTC's number:
