        Hey everbody,

        my Volla Phone often removes and adds the SD card for no reason, even when just lying on the table. That doesn't happen constantly, sometimes it doesn't do that for days. It seems to appear when the phone is not in flight mode. It even seems to reboot randomly then.

        What could that come from? Software issue?
        Or might that even be a hardware problem? Does anyone else experience this behaviour?

        Thanks!

          That could be. Use isopropil alcohool to clean contacts on card and phone (or contact cleaner "F2" type if you have).

            @jojumaxx - I had this happen to me on my Volla with an older micro SD card. Replacing it with a newer card, an rebooting stopped the issue. Perhaps reformatting the SD card could fix the issue as well.

            Best regards,

              Hello.

              I've got the exact same problem. Sd card get's removed and after a reboot it's back again.(formatting didn't help).
              I haven't tried a new card, since this is an old card. I'm going to buy a newer/bigger card, install it and report back.

                I removed the SD card to try in my Meizu Pro 5 and BQ E5 Ubuntu Edition. Worked in both phones.
                After reinstalling the card in the Volla Phone the problem did only occur once again. Since then, it seems to work...
                But it's annoying, I hope that it works again now.
                Otherwise I'll try a newer card as well...
