mini sd locks up my 6700???
 
it just started happening, when i have my memory card in my phone locks up. if i take it out everything is fine and works perfect, my girlfriend has the same phone and the same memory card works fine in her phone so it leads to me to believe something is wrong with the phone. any ideas??

I have a fairly good idea whats wrong... as I just had my phone replaced this past weeked for the same reason:disgust: My phone like your's just outa the blue started to lock up, loose connection with the memory card OR show the card was there but when you went to access it, it would just sit there and think... then freeze:angry7:.

I took my phone in to sprint... after a HARD reset the tech tells me the problem was my memory card adaptor from Micro SD to Mini. So I took it back home, replaced the adaptor with another BRAND new one i had... same thing... took out my wifes Mini SD card and tried it... same thing... call back the tech and he tells me that "it worked here" well it don't for me:protest:. So he tells me he'll set up a reservation for me and look at it again. Back down i goto the sprint store... he looks at it again and finds it does have a problem... that he can't fix. By now I'm a little pissed after nearly 4 hours at the sprint store... I think he sensed this:mrgreen: so he tell me he'll BRB... back he comes with what looks like a BRAND new 6700... the ONLY way I could tell it was a referb was the TINY bit of ware around the mini USB port... other wise not a SINGLE SCRATCH on it:headbang:

Bottom line... take it in if you have insurance.

I have the same problem, but don't mind not being able to use SD cause I don't need the extra room. Never rally did all I used it for was mp3's, but even then, I never even used them. They just sat there, lol. I don't have insurance anyway, so, I live with it.

I had the same problem but it wasn't my phone that was the issue. It's with the card itself. If your using an SDHC card, they can sometimes have ECC(error correction checking) and since the 6700 doesn't support that it may cause issues. I have a class 6 card but class 2 and 4 also have ecc. What you can do is reset your phone, put your memory card into your computer, use chkdsk to check and repair errors, backup your sd card data to your hard disk; and format the card. Then once its formatted put it back into your phone and it should work flawlessly.
