I had been using my tab S6 with a kiwibird USB C SD card reader and this worked great.
I ordered a Samsung 128gb U3 micro SD card but my issue is that while the SD card is in the tablet, the USB card reader does not get recognised. This is also the same with my Note 9.
This seems very odd. Should this be the case, or is there a workaround?
problem solved (hopefully)

I contacted Samsung support and was advised to clear the data and cache from USB settings. After doing this the SD card reader now works while the micro SD card is inserted.
Problem not solved..
Ok, so I thought the problem was solved but it seems not.
Whilst my Transcend 64gb sdxc SD card was recognised in the card reader while the micro SD was in the tablet, the Toshiba 64gb sdxc SD card was not. When I removed the micro SD card from the tablet and rebooted the tablet, the Toshiba card was recognised in the card reader.
I've no idea why this would be the case but it basically means that I can't keep the micro SD card in the tablet which is a shame.

I notice that I have been getting corrupted pictures. Has this happened to anyone else but me? Or is it the SdCard?
Is it a brand new micro sd card? what's the capacity? When I first inserted my brand new 32gb micro sd card it wasn't recognizing it. So I formatted mine via pc as fat32 and it didn't give me any issue after that. Try that and hopefully it works for you.

It was my first microsd card, 32 gb Gskill class 10. I formatted via SDformatter on PC.
Try to format the card on the phone itself. With my new 64gig card, I try to do so on my PC and gave me problems at first. After trying it on my phone it has worked flawlessly thus far.
Be sure to unmount the drive properly in Windows. SD cards can corrupt when you just unplug the phone without unmounting the drive first.
Alternately, on your phone you can switch to 'charge only', which does the same thing.
I was transferring files from a micro SD card in my laptop to the 32 GB SD card in my phone. All the files tranferred over just fine, but now the card reader in my phone doesn't work at all. I tried resetting the phone already. Does anyone know what happened and can it be fixed?
NEVERMIND... problem solved.
Hi all,
I recently bought a microSD card reader from kickstarter.com /projects/andyfei/mini-microsd-reader-for-android-smartphones-and-ta. According to this website, it works with microsd upto 64GB (larger has not been tested).
On HTC's website. htc.com /us/support/howto.aspx?p_id=529&id=316148&p_name=htc-one-x-plus-att, it states that: "HTC One X+ supports USB storage devices (except portable hard drives) up to 64 GB."
But somehow this SDcard reader does work with an 8GB microSDcard, but not with my SanDisk Ultra® microSDXC™ UHS-I card for mobile devices 64GB card.
However, the cardreader with 64GB microSD card does work on my windows PC. So, to me the cardreader does not seem to be the problem.
But I do not understand why this 64GB microSD card does not work on my OneXplus, while it is stated on their website...
Can anyone please help me out?
Thanks!!
My note is not seeing my 16Gig micro SDHC card...
It worked before, then I switched it out (with a 4Gig card) to do some file maintenance on it on my laptop. Now neither will read it. Any ideas on how to restore the 16Gig card (reformat or something)?
Thanks
Hello,
So my sd card (16gb) appears to have stop working and the phone gives me the message “SD Card is blank or has unsupported filesystem.” This started yesterday after I changed default storage for my camera to sd card. Before that it was working just fine.
I restarted the phone, no luck with that. Turn off phone and remove and cleaned sd card, still no luck. I plugged in my phone to the computer to access the sd card, but did not show up, I guess its cause the card is not mounted? So then I thought I’ll just plug in the sd card to my computer and back up everything and then format to correct, but no that didn’t work… when I plugged it in my computer, my computer did not even recognize my card.
At first I thought maybe my adapter is broken, so I plugged in a spare sd card (1gb) I had lying around and that on worked just fine. So I googled what could be wrong and read that it could be that the adapter does not support HCSD cards. So then I plugged in my sd card into a USB sd card reader (which had a slot for micro sd which I used), but same thing – did not recognize 16gb card, but it did for 1gb card. I checked to see if it’s a driver issue, but it was up to date. Then I doubted the USB card reader didn’t support HCSD like the adapter, so I went out and bought a new USB card reader (one that works with HCSD cards) from bestbuy (Insignia SD/MMC Memory Card Reader). Still did not recognize card with new reader on computer.
I googled to see what my options were, but the solutions that I found all had the computer recognize the card – which mine isn’t doing… but I still tried a few things I read like chkdsk in command prompt, but I got “Cannot open volume for direct access” error.
Even though my computer does not recognize the card, my phone does recognize it but corrupt and offers to format. I also tried it on different phones (Galaxy S2 T989, and Blackberry Bold 9650) to see if it can read it, but same thing it recognizes it but corrupt and unreadable.
I’m still looking around for solutions, but if anyone can help me with this, please do. Please let me know if you need more info.

Sounds like the SD is toast. It's not easy to extract corrupted data from a micro sd card
