I am using S2U2 configured as described here and still have SD card issues several times each day.

I can verify also that I'm getting errors with the "but blank screen".

I tried the advanced option and haven't had errors yet but I need to wait and see.

I changed this setting under Advanced in S2U2 and went nearly a day before having a problem again.

I have experienced two variants of this corruption issue: 1) my SD card root folder structure is there but all root folders are empty (I was getting this several times a day prior to making the change noted above), and 2) the card shows several dozen folders and files with garbled names. This is what I just experienced.

I had lots of problems with the SD before installing s2u2, but now that everything (including s2u2) runs from main memory and the SD is merely a backup/repository, the phone is very stable, and the SD has not needed any help in a couple weeks.

After two days, I finally got a corrupted SD card with the advanced feature ticked on too. This is getting really annoying!

I don't (and with the Touch, never have) run any apps off the card. I use my card only to store audio books, podcasts that are sync'd from my computer, cab files for reinstalling, and backups.

I'm back at square one with this issue since everything I've tried has not caused it to stop.

I don't think that s2u2 is the cause of your problems.

The card gets corrupt when WM tries to access it while sleeping. It does not matter if your device is falling asleep because s2u2 is telling it to, or via the power settings in WM. The same corruption will result...

You missed the point. With the correct S2U2 settings, the phone never "sleeps", it simply blanks the screen.

Using S2U2 as described above, does the phone *never* suspend - even if the power button is hit. Or do those settings only change how the phone behaves if it turns itself off (after being left alone for a minute, for example)?

Add me too the list. My card got corrupted 3 times within a week and it seemed to happen when I installed Sprint's Mobile Email and enabled my Yahoo account. I always chose SD card to store attachments and after the first couple sync's with yahoo my card wasn't readable and everything was "gone". I say "gone" because when I check the amount of storage free in the card from the computer, it shows that its still almost full. So like mcw said in post 88 its still there its just messed up. I had the phone replaced but I checked the sofware and firmware of the new one and its still the same as the old one. I never installed mobile email this time and everything was fine until.....my photo album won't stay open. I think I have to many pics (approx. 90) in DCIM\100MEDIA folder because when I click on pics, the album starts loading and after two rows are loaded it just returns to the home screen. Anyone have this issue. It stopped when I deleted half the pics in that folder.
