Every time I unlock my phone it feels the need to scan the memory card. This is especially annoying when I'm using it as a music player and unlock it to change songs. When I unlock it it just quits because it's scanning the card again. Anyone else have this problem and fixed it? It doesn't seem to be OS specific as it's happened with the last three that I've had. I'm currently running app ver 4.5.0.127.
Very odd, I have never had this issue either and my card is nearly full with pics and tones. Did you format the card PRIOR to using it originally? Just curious.............
yup, did the battery pull. I just did a quick test to make sure I'm not losing my mind. I clicked on the lock and then unlocked it, sure enough it was scanning the stupid card again. Before I locked it it wasn't scanning.
I don't remember if I formatted it or not. It must be formatted correctly if I'm able to read and write to it though. Mass storage mode is turned on.
Not necessarily - some folks I have read on here have issues with cards that were not formatted, personally I think they should be formatted. Works both ways since others dont see the need for it and it will work either way. Just a thought.....
Is the phone still under warranty? Might want to get another BB under warranty.
Also, normally the BB only scans the memory card if it detects that files have been added to the card. The card could still have a funky FAT, or file allocation table. You still might want to try copying the contents of your media card onto your computer, then format the card, then move your files back to your card in increments. Check if the BB starts scanning the media card after the initial time, which is normal. By doing that you might be able to pinpoint if the problem corrects with a format, or if you have a corrupted/flaky file somewhere on your card.
Hope this helps.
