Hi

Not sure if anyone lese is having this issues. At times when i restart my phone certain apps that are on the SD card do not load properly.

basically the app i light grey and it does not function.

Restarting phone sometimes solves the problem and at times the 1st app loads well then another app has the problem.

Anyone else having this issue? - it is really bothersome

Had it before.

1) MicroSD card might be the problem meaning its too slow or corrupted. I changed my SD card to a Class 4 16GB SandDisk from Kingston 32GB. No problem when testing after that.

2) Although it was working fine when trying out, but now I keep all my apps on the phone memory. Less problem if need to take out the MicroSD or do something with it that needs unmounting.

Cheers
 
What apps are giving the problem? If they're designed to run at startup then it's because the external memory card isn't accessible until late in the boot process.
 
Hello guys...

I have the same problem before...what i have done is..

settings> storage> Unmount SD card.... after a few seconds > mount SD card again.

I have a sandisk class 4 16GB card.

Hope it helps

Have a nice day guys :)
 
Uninstalling and re-installing solves problem

Even restarting the phone solves problem at times

Yet why does this happen

Should it happen?

I have a 16 GB class 10 Kingston, and this is a annoying problem. However restarting helps most of the time, but whenthat doesn't work I simply reinstall the affected app/s. IS this the os, the phone, or the memory?
