Just out of curiousity, do you have another SD card you can compare the problematic one with? I don't have any but I was wondering if some manufacturers are using a more flimsy thin plastic than other brands. I'm also wondering if the contacts are raised enough to keep in constant contact with the pins.
There's several of us, and I'm not using ATK.
Try again.
AAAAhhhh i see now....yea not an issue for me I have my own 16GB card that have all my apps and stuff already waiting for the EVO....Have used it in 2 other android phones and works great. That would suck if the stock card has issues but I am sure sprint or BB will replace it and its certainly shouldn't be a deal breaker or cause to worry.
OK, so this is getting worst. At first it was just a one time thing. Tonight it happened about 5 out of 10 times I tried to use the camera. Sometimes turning it off and back on would fix it. Sometimes I had to remove the battery. Once I had to remove the card.
Could someone tell me what folders I need to copy to keep what I already have on the card? I have a new 16GB card that I can switch to. Should I format it in the EVO or use the SD Formatter that someone mentioned above?
Thanks... C
Posted this a few minutes ago, trying to get Sprint, Google, and HTC to solve this ASAP: Is HTC EVO 4G About To Be Launched With A Massive Defect In The Included 8GB MicroSD Card?
Didn't know you were tied to Android Police - good site you got there.
Well try reformatting the card with the official app, and see if that helps you. Seems to have done the trick for me thus far.
if it was OS based, wouldn't it be happening on ALOT more Evos? Unless it was a certain app or setting that caused the SD card to become unreadable.
I'm still going with the "Bad SD Card" theory. I wonder who makes the Micro SD cards that Sprint is including in the Evo.
Sandisk - so not a crap manufacturer.
