Hi Guys, just bought meself a new 16gb micro sd card.
How can I transfer or make an image of the old card to the new one? I have many installed applications on my old card, I don't want to go through the daunting process of having to reinstall every single application.
Any help would be appreciated.
Copy the contents of the old card to your computer, then write them back to the new card.
Everything should work just the way it did before.
as above, just copy everything to the new card, , , just make sure you have hidden and system files visible before you copy/paste them.

Although you can transfer an image from one card to another its really not recommended for the stable running of the device especially after a ROM flash.

Moving your stuff from one card to another has absolutely no influence on how the device runs. Unless the new card is defective, of course
Thanks guys, am abroad at the moment. The moment I get home, I'll try as you suggested.
Thanks again

That's just wrong!
You may get away with it but all settings and associations will be for the previous ROM and could be totally inappropriate!
WTF, we are on about moving stuff from one card to another.
Nothing to do with ROMs!
Your storage card is only for storage - ie it does not matter if you copy your files from (lets say) a smaller SD to a bigger one.
possible complications: having programs installed on the sd card.... here you could get error messages when you take the card out for the copy process. Nevermind them though as you take the card out, do your copying and then shove the new card back in....
after that just do a safety reboot and you should be fine

Then you obviously didn't read what the thread was about.. The guy just has a new card and wants to copy the contents of the old one to it. Nothing about ROMs, settings etc...
Put my old card into the comp, copied everything, pasted into a folder on the desktop then dropped it all onto my new card, put it back in the phone, turned it on and everything works fine

The OP mentioned installed apps on a mem card and excuse me but that DOES have something to do with ROMs.
Now you are wrong!
And before this goes any further you all believe what you want and do what you want because there's none so blind as those who will not see.
I shall not be posting further after those sort of comments, hollinshea!

No! A storage card is just that, a disk with a filesystem and files on it. If you copy the same files onto another card, there's no way the system can even see anything has changed, apps or no apps. It's not about deleting/adding stuff, just having exactly the same data.
We don't "believe" anything - it's just how it is.

+1 on this.
Sometime after I installed safestrap and a second rom, I lost the ability to write or delete from my external SD card. It may have something to do with SAFESTRAP, or possibly an app called SDFix: KitKat Writable MicrosSD which I installed and may have ran in preparation for any type of KitKat update. Anyone have any ideas of what I may have done?
edit for more info : The weird thing is, it lets me go through the motions to delete a movie file with say ES File Explorer, but when I reboot, the file is still there and I am able to watch the same exact file I thought I deleted. Also, if I set my camera to write external, it seems like it works, but when I reboot, the files aren't there anymore. Luckily the few pictures I tried taking like that were uploaded to my dropbox before I reboot..... Also, if I create a new folder and paste a file into there, the folder won't be there when I reboot. Also, it seems like my titanium backup files aren't updating, they all seem to be dated February 28 and they won't update even though it goes through the entire backup process!

That is a good idea. I'll try once my co-worker comes back from lunch so I can borrow their microsd-usb adapter.

The card is an 64GB Sandisk, and the computer won't recognize it, I believe because of the way it is formatted. When I get home, I will try to connect via USB 3.0 and see if I can dump everything to my PC and go from there....

Your computer should still recognize it though.
uhh ohh, its a VDI virtual system, and it says this card needs to be formatted before windows can recognize it....
I am copying everything over to my PC over USB. I will try the card in a card reader to see what can be done. If I format it, and if it works after format, should I have confidence that the card won't crap out on me in the future¿???
I am finally able to format it using a slow format in Windows 7, lets see if it works...
Nope, still broken with all previous files in tact.
I'm having the exact same issue and I bet others are too. At first I thought it was something to do with an ESexplorer update since I never happened before it, but I've deleted ES and tried many other file managers/explorers and still have it happen. Someone has to know how to fix this.

I had the same issue with the same card. After a lot of research I found that my SD card had somehow become locked...I know...WHAT? My sd card is looked with no way to unlock it. I can view files on it but i cannot add files or delete from the card.
I emailed Sandisk asking them if they had a solution but I never heard back from them
I have tried every solution that I have found and none have worked...
I've gone through 6 San disk 64gb class 10 cards between my Note 2 and Note 3 with my last cropping out 2 weeks ago. San disk will replace your card and tell you to contact the phone manufacturer. I did that contacted Samsung...at 1st I got the run around but I was persistent and got a hold of a good tech support agent. Samsung phones have issues writing info to the 64gb class 10 cards. They are aware of the issue and are working on a fix as of 2-3months ago. He told me the will work fine. He said they don't recommend over 32gb and a class 4 card because of the stability issues of files being corrupted on class 10s particularly 64gb 1s. Funny thing is i called San Disk back and told them what i was told and asked for a 32gb lower class and he told me i could buy it buy they could only replace it with the same one i had. Good luck!

You know this is not the first time that I've heard of this. I actually had a 10s 32Gig SanDisk micro that I ended up losing because of this problem with my Galaxy S3. I got to work one day and set my phone down on the desk and it just seeming stopped working. I don't know what it is with the 10 series cards but it seems like they all have some kind of problem.
Thanks everyone for all the info. I guess I'll have to get another card and I'm going to be sure it's NOT another SanDisk.
I have a strange problem with my note3 n9005 that is running omega v.16
Lately when I install an app from play store it works great until I reboot the device.. After I reboot the app I just installed is gone and I have to install it again..
My old apps that I have installed before this problem started occurring are just fine, and does not disappear after a reboot.
Does anyone know why this is happening, and if there is a way to fix it?
Thanks in advance

I just checked, and you where right.. Some apps seems to automatically install on the external SD card, I moved it to device storage and it was still there after a reboot..
Many thanks my friend.
Now that leads me to my next question..
Sense many apps are installed to external SD and seems to work just fine even after a reboot, why doesn't any new apps stay there anymore?
I don't remember changing anything..
Is there a way to make it work again?
Thanks again
To be honest with you I'm not sure. I do know android has made some changes in KitKat in regards to the external SD card not being able to write/read for 3rd party apps. There was a fix for this somewhere on XDA. Now the question is, if this is related? Couldn't tell you. Only advice I can give is, leave your apps installed in your internal memory. Keep everything else for your external SD. Glad I could help!!

Yo. I may shed some light in this situation.
Get a new external SD card - 'tis what I did.
I had this 64GB SanDisk UHS-1 Class 10 - exactly what you have: http://www.sandisk.com/products/memory-cards/microsd/ultra-class10-for-android/
One day when I took out my MicroSD from my phone and put it back in. I thought everything was fine. During transfer it transferred things to my computer, but then it kept freezing up. My ROM file (250mb) was transferred somehow into my MicroSD along with the Google Apps zip. When I turned off my phone, preparing the ROM flash, I only saw my ROM file and not my Google Apps file. I thought "that was strange" and I did it again, by deleting both files just in case of MD5 mismatch. This time both files confirmed inside the MicroSD, I rebooted. No Gapps showed but my ROM showed, so I tried to install it (note I deleted this file already) and it said ERROR. I plugged it back into my computer, Google Apps was not there, but my other files like photos, music, app data still remained. One peculiar file popped up, was my ROM file. It was 20kb. I deleted it. Rebooted my phone, plugged it in. It appeared again.
Seems like my microSD entered a stage of read-only but it isn't actually read-only. Like it doesn't retain any information AT ALL. My MicroSD can't be touched, I tried deleting 13gb. Windows showed the data actually getting deleted with the bar (and it fluctuates in data I/O speeds!). Unplugged. Rebooted. Plugged back in. 13gb worth of files still there, in tact. Like a visual storage to fool people you can delete files but in fact you can't.
I tried it on my Note 1 (FAIL), Note 3 (FAIL). The only way I could read the extSD was to plug it in a microSD adapter and transfer files out of it. At least Sandisk thought of a failsafe read-only phase to back up files. Instead of breaking down completely.

You are absolutely right.. I checked the card buy putting it in my computer, and it was as you said in a read only state..
I was able to copy my things from the card, but I could not put anything on it.. I could not even delete anything or format it!
So I went to the store where I purchased it, and now I have a brand new Samsung UHS-I 64 GB.. Hopefully this one will last me longer.
Buy the way, it turned out that I purchased the card on July 17 last year, so had I been waiting for just 6 more days, I would not have been able to have it replaced.. So I owe you many thanks.

Hello all,
I have been using Galaxy note 3 for the last 3 years or so, have rooted it, installed AOSP and stock ROMs (including the latest Note 7 ports) on it. So I have a fair understanding of how the phone works, and am able to work with errors on a very comfortable basis (sometimes, with help from other XDA members as well).
Now, here's where I am stuck. I was running a Note 7 port ROMs (Phronesis and Magma-NX), and also ran an AOSP ROM. Since last week, my phone has not been able to recognize my SD Card (I have two cards: one, a 32gb card, and the other a 128gb card) on either of the stock or AOSP ROMs. It says: Corrupted. So I begin to format the card (both of them) on the phone itself, and I keep getting this message when I try to format my SD Card via phone:
thread binder_7 gave up waiting for partitionPublic after 180000ms
The SD Cards format properly on my laptop. The end result is my phone doesn't recognize any memory cards, and I basically end up working with the internal storage of 32gb. I havent encountered this error before, and I have no clue about what to do. I have tried googling it, and Google gives me a result for partitionPrivate and not partitionPublic. I dont know if these are the same things or not, and in either case, I absolutely dont know
what to do.
Can anyone suggest/guide as to what should I do?
I had an issue where my phone wouldn't see an SD card unless it was given a name when attached to a PC, might be nothing to do with it but could be worth a try?

I guess that is probably working good for you; do you have your photos and videos setup to be directly posted on the Cloud then?
Definitely, you have various options how to upload directly, with mobile plans, only with WiFi, only on charge.

Can you try this please :
- Format one of your sd cards using your PC (use this recommended tool)
- Make sure you choose FAT32 as file system before format
- Check if you got the correct total size of the formatted sd card
- Shutdown your phone, put your sdcard, boot directly to recovery
if the recovery is able to recognize the sd card with the correct total size, then you don't have a hardware failure.

When you connect it to a PC, when viewing My Computer as it used to be called, you can see all of the drives, C:, D: etc, on that screen if you right click above your SD card drive select rename, it should be under removable drives. A long shot but also an easy one so worth a punt.

@zlazaar Hey buddy, so I downloaded the SD Formatter, and did a quick format (should I have done full Format - if yes, which one - Erase or overwrite). I also tried the Format Size Adjustment ON and OFF.
I have 2 SD Cards, one 128gb and the other a 32gb. The SD Formatter formatted the 128gb card as an exFAT, and the it formatted the 32gb card as a FAT32. However, TWRP still didn't recognize either of the cards. I still dont have the cards running on the phone..

I have a very strange thing that has just started occurred with my wife's Note 4. It appears that all apps have lost write-access to the SD card.
I first noticed the problem with the camera app. The camera app was configured to write to external storage but when a picture is taken, it says "Unable to save file to SD card. Default storage has been changed to device memory."
The Gallery app is also not able to write to the SD card (cannot create a new album) or move files to an existing album on the card.
Solid Explorer cannot create a new folder on the card.
I've tried to clear app settings for the camera and Solid Explorer. But even after setting everything back up, I still get the same results.
I'm running stock v6.0.1 (EPJ2) rooted. Also, my (seemingly identical) Note 4 does not display any of this behavior. No changes other than normal application updates.
Any ideas what might be going on?
I've had this happen when an SD Card gets corrupted - you can still view and access the files that are already on the card, but you can no longer write to it.
Try the card in a PC and see if that can write to it - if not then your card is likely permanently damaged. I had 3 Sandisk 64Gb cards go like this in two different devices. Tried reformatting them every which way, but nothing would make them writeable again. Have used Samsung cards ever since and never had a failure yet.
Just restart your phone

There are 3 possible solutions:
Using MS Windows PC
Using Linux PC
Using TWRP Recovery with a proper BusyBox
Let me know which one do you choose & I will explain how.

You nailed it. My card was a 128 GB SanDisk Ultra. Pulled it from the phone and my laptop couldn't write to it either. Copied everything off and copied it back to a new card and there you go.
Grrrr...$^%**# SanDisk.
Out of curiosity, what Samsung line did you end up choosing? I think the EVO+ will be sufficient for me but wondering what you ended up using.

Glad you got it sorted! I've been using a Samsung PRO 64Gb - this is the 128Gb version on Amazon UK:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01CRZCLAM
I think the newer version of it is this one:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B019QO1Q4O
But you're right - the EVO+ is probably sufficient. It wasn't available when I was purchasing:
