I am running stock 4.3 rooted. And, just recently, every time I restart my phone all new information, folders, music, etc gets erased? Is the card going? Or is there maybe some kind of "image" bug? Any ideas appreciated.

What kind of sd card is it?
Do you see any random messages that the card is being unmounted/mounted?
SanDisk 64gb.
Nah.....no error messages.......I think the card is just shot.......I formatted it, 3 times (ExFat), ran a chkdsk, and the files that should have been deleted magically appeared? I tried on two computers runing Win7 Ult... After whole-hardheartedly not wanting it to be the card....I tried my old SanDisk 32gb.....Restarted the phone several times, and new files are there and working.... Just going to have to spring for a new 64...
Thanks though...
Don't get a Sandisk..they have issues with the Note 2...I had to replace mine. I got a Samsung SD card and it's been perfect. Google sandisk and issues with the note 2 and you'll see alot of people having issues.
When I bought the phone, it was the only one, reasonably priced, available....
I just ran some more diagnostics using CMD window this time......I keep getting a "Volume Bitmap Corruption...."
I am going to try a few other things listed on this thread.... It can't hurt.

Well, good luck. But, I just don't trust Sandisk in my Note 2.
The weird thing is, this sandisk SD card WORKS in my Note 1 !!!!
I don't know what it is but it's strange.

Before replacing it, I would try formatting it to fat32. My phone has intermittent problems with exFat but fat32 works fine.I also had to format it on my PC, using guiformat, for it to work correctly.
The card is dead.......I ran everything from Swiss Knife and DskChk to Hp and SanDisk Drive software....and finally Paragon. All formats: Fat32, NTFS, EXFat.......They all get to 99% and stop. I can't erase anything from the Card and I can't add anything.
On the optimistic side, it could have been worse....I could have lost all the information that was on it.....I was able to copy it to my laptop. Oh well, Thanks!1 Tube517 and Phoneturf for the ideas.....cue the trumpet/bugle......

Have you tried repartitioning the disk?
-》Sent from my mind to your screen.
Yeah....I tried deleting the partition, recreating the partition, making it primary, making it extended.......But, believe me, if anyone runs across this thread and has something for me to try, I will give it a shot. I have nothing to lose and I can't bring myself to believe it can't be fixed....somehow. :silly:
Gave you tried repartitioning and formatting using Linux? I run my own repair business and have had a lot of luck using Linux to recover disks that windows sees as hopelessly corrupted.
Also, from windows, tried running the "chkdsk /f" command on the drive?
Just throwing stuff out there lol. I'm with you and have trouble giving up.

Haven't tried Linux.- might give it a shot this weekend when I have some time.:good:
Ran the chkdsk /f, chkdsk f/ r/, chkdsk f/ v/, format fs:fat32 f:, format fs:ntfs f:.......
Thank you! I will try anything on this, it's useless otherwise, so I'll take it all!
