[Q] 8gig SD card issue (read only and blank 0mb) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have SD card of 8gig suddenly it mount it self read
only, I have tried some steps (i have partition it)
steps taking:
tried formatting with PC and other devices but failed.
tried deleting disk but failed.
tried using cmd command but fail.
but I notice some effect, I can use the SD card for some
time if I reboot my phone but when device reboot again I
experience data lost and deleted data comes back.
I bought another 8gig SD card(not partitioned) after
using for a week, I tried deleting a file from flash share
(xender) and the SD card goes blank, it shows 0mb.
Can any of the SD card be fixed or that the end of the
both SD cards?

damaged internal storage

I've been having trouble with the sd card in my new RAZR. Just this morning I noticed that I had a new notification "Blank SD Card - SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem."
If I clicked the notification it gave me the option to format but it would never format the card. I was still able to mount the drive to my pc so I made a backup of all the files on the card to my computer.
I did quite a bit of searching on the forum and eventually came across a post that said to try formatting the card with this utility:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
After I did a quick format with SD Formatter 3.1 I then noticed a new notification "Damaged internal storage - Storage damaged. You may have to reformat it."
Now I'm still able to mount the sd card on my pc via the phone but windows doesn't recognize any disk in the drive. I get this error "There is no disk in drive X. Insert a disk, and then try again."
Has anyone had this issue? Any idea what causes it and how to resolve it? At this point, I have a full backup of the contents, so I'm only concerned with resolving the sd card issues and making the notifications disappear.
Thanks
I had this issue, removed as card and blew into the slot and replaced the card, haven't had it happen again so far.

Yeah, I've powered down the phone, removed the card, replaced it and powered back on but I still have the same errors.
Called Verizon and they told me to go to one of their stores to see if swapping out a new SD Card would fix it. Hopefully the problem doesn't happen again.
Stopped by the Verizon store and they swapped out a new SD card. The "Blank SD Card - SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem" error went away but I still had the "Damaged internal storage - Storage damaged. You may have to reformat it" error. This time it allowed me to format the internal storage.
So it turns out that the SD card was completely hosed and the external SD card got corrupted, but after the format was resolved.
I'm still not sure what caused this but I hope it's not something regular as I have had the phone less than a week.
Every time i got a problem with any external device, like sd card, I use this powerfull tool Aconis Disk Director. It has a lot of options that maybe solve you problem.
I've been seeing this too. How do they swap out the internal sd?

Trouble with SD card

When I try to do things in TWRP it gives me an error that says E:Unable to mount storage. I thought maybe my sd card needs to be reformatted or something, so I went to the system settings once booted and looked under storage. At the bottom "Mount sd card" and Erase SD card are both greyed out and I cant select them. When I connect my phone to my pc it shows only internal storage instead of an internal folder and sd card folder.
All of my data on my sd card still shows up when im on the phone though and I believe all of my data on my sd card is showing up as under internal storage.
Anyone have any ideas as to whats going on?

I had a similar issue today, my SD card was corrupted, this seems to happen with my SD card and android devices every now and then and I'm not sure why. Putting the SD card in my computer showed most of the files were okay, however, there were some that were messed up. Mine was pretty messed up so it is looking like I'm going to have to reformat it if repairing the corrupted parts doesn't work.
I just found a sd card adapter for my pc and used it. I ran chkdsk on the sd card and it found a ton of errors. If I reformat the sd card; what should I reformat it to? Fat32? That's what it is currently.
Edit-After running chkdsk f: /f on my sd card im able to select the mount and erase options now. It seems to have fixed all my issues.

Problem install applications to sd

Hello, since yesterday I have a serious and strange problem to your sd card. Let's start that I have a moto g lte first generation. So since yesterday I can't format my sd card, I can't erase the things that are above, I tried to find errors with pc but nothing, I did scan but nothing, though I can move files from sd card to your pc, I can hear the music with the songs placed on the sd, but the strangest thing is that if I update an application , and then with link2sd the move on the sd, gives me an error and if I reboot the phone, the application is no longer updated and is moved to the internal memory, 2.7 gb free space out of 8. If I try to copy some apps on the sd using link2sd I get says "install failed container error", while if I try to use solid explorer and press for information for both the sd card to the inner one, I get says "attempt to invoke a virtual method on a null object reference". I tried to format the sd card with sd formatter however tells me the card is protected. You know me, I'm going crazy ps apps that were wrapped with link2sd on the sd card, they work. :crying:

HELP! external sd card cannot read after bad encryption/decryption

first of all, I try to encrypt my sd card and it takes hours only showing "Preparing SD card; Checking for errors", so I reboot it and start decryption, also wait for hours and also only showing "Preparing SD card; Checking for errors"
then I put my sd card into a computer and repair for few seconds, my files are back
but the problem is my phone cannot read my sd card now, it will stuck on "Preparing SD card; Checking for errors" and when I go to the sd card encryption page in setting it sill let me to "continue decrypt“ my sd card
I've try to format my card (even rebuilt the partition table in linux) and have no luck, I guess the problem is my phone still think my card is "encrypted", so anyone know how to solve this?
------update-----
I successfully mount my sd card by terminal (mount command) and can access the content in the terminal, but in file explorer that folder I mount on is still blank... what is going on
