My SD is stuck in read only and won't let me delete or add files. I've tried changing the permissions to R/W in root explorer and removing a file but it shows right back up. I took the card out and used and adapter to mount it to my PC but it won't let me delete, add, or format the card. On the adapter it has a lock switch but it is set to unlock and other SD cards work both in my phone and with the adapter on the computer. Any ideas?

Didn't mean to thank that... Anyhow, I've had that happen before and unfortunately that is a sign it is no good any longer. Nothing I did would fix it. Maybe someone else has a suggestion though.

Eject or unmount your phone before disconnecting it :/
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
sorry but could u explain dont really understand
are you using windows or linux? look for your phone to show up in either os.....right click and choose eject(windows) or unmount(linux). plug the phone back up and see if you can select disk drive (on the phone) as your option. It should populate.
Cool thanks ill try it

Is there a way that enables me to only mount the external sd card when i plug my phone in via usb cable and select mass storage mode. But I would have the option to mount the internal memory if i wanted to.

What would you need this for?
So that i can plug my phone into my car stereo and play my music files from the external sd card. It gets confused sometimes because it mounts both memory cards and doesnt know which to read.

Bump... anyone have any ideas?
U could always hold the power button in, wait till it asks u what u want to do, hit shutdown, let it shutdown all the way.....then get in your car. Now adjust your seat, mirrors, put seat belt on, aaaaand ...insert a cd! Blam. Fixed.

It means the sim isn't inserted/isn't recognised. Remove it, give it and the connector a quick clean/blow (Ha!) and it should be fine.
Its not the sim card. Its the memory card symbol.

nope. just wont go away.
Do you have an external sdcard inserted? Check if its mounted, visible in file manager.
Are all sdcard, internal & usb (mounted), and external, visible in CWM Recovery when connected to pc?
Check, menu / settings / storage / unmount & mount again
Power off and reinsert, checking the contacts on card and phone are ok and not obstructed.

Thanks for your replies.
it is definitly not the Memory card, as i removed it and turned on the phone, and as soon as i make a phone call and hang up, this weird icon appears in the status bar.
On a sidenote, this has started happening once i swapped my simcard because i changed carriers.
Can you try another sim, maybe a friends? Maybe sim itself?

I would try this
Does anyone else occasionally experience an app mysteriously vanishing after restarting your phone? It's not as frequent anymore but it will happen to me with certain apps.
I'm wondering if this is because somehow they aren't compatible with my 64GB microSD- IF that's the default save location or if anyone else is experiencing this.
Thanks!

First of all, apps can't be saved on the microSD card on this phone. Check my FAQs on that.
Secondly, I've heard of disabled apps re-installing themselves on our phone on reboot, but not the other way around. Can you tell us which apps are doing that?
Airdroid, Fatbooth, FartDroid, etc... you know.... important apps... lol. This is my second phone to do it. The XDA app used to do it too. Some others as well. Their icons still show in folders but when you click it says the app is not installed.
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using xda app-developers app
I've experienced the same problem. They will randomly come back to life, but it seems if apps are stored on what the phone thinks is the SD card rather than the internal storage, it has a greater tenancy to vanish.
I've had this happen a few times. I have not noticed whether they are apps I have moved to the phone storage area or not.
When I move them, they seem to be ok. That is until an update for that app, if I restart before moving it back it'll delete.

Last night I moved my apps from internal to phone storage to make more space. After a while, my phone died. When I turned it back on, guess what? 90% of the apps vanished from my phone. Here I am redownloading everything... is this normal or does my phone have problems?

I might return and exchange the phone. No apps will save to phone storage and it keeps telling me I have insufficient storage in the internal storage.... Can anyone save to phone storage, restart and see if apps are still there?

Might be something with your handset I have 1.6GB on phone storage and haven't had any apps self delete. I have run out of space on the internal storage, 1GB there isn't much. My plan is to s-off over Christmas when work shuts down and see if any progress has been made being able to move apps to the external SD. There was some talk about it a while ago.
Thanks for the response! Perhaps I have an issue with my phone. If I move apps to phone storage they will be completely deleted upon reset.
When I click apps on phone storage it shows the apps that are really in internal storage but when you click the apps they say "move to phone storage". Very strange.
I'll do a factory reset and see if it helps the issue.
How many apps do you have on phone storage?

I hope so! I'm going to do a factory reset tomorrow and see what happens. If it's not fixed I'll replace it after Christmas that way they should have a fresh batch. My last Inc 4g had the same issue.

Dont go, root it and try my sdcard swap mod on development section, and fix permissions and i recommend viper rom, that made that error go for me

I have never needed to reboot the phone to use my otg cable. Use something like otg helper from the play store for mounting an sdcard.

As I understand it the one in root is a syslink to the sdcard0. You can hold down a folder and make links to it in other places to. edit:as you can see here it points to that location all the time
