Hi guys..
My brother recently updated his x play to marshmallow and used his sd card (sandisk 32 gb) as internal storage. Few days back he did a factory reset after which the phone is not recognising sd card (it shows the sd card as 'unsupported') and asks to format it, to use . he'll lose all the data, if he formats it.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

I guess that's the only way as the card is encrypted.

Though the card is encrypted, it should be usable in the same phone.
Isn't there any way to recover data from the card (mainly photos)?

You can try some recovery apps available over the Internet.
Same thing happened with my friend also. He had his external formatted as internal and factory resetted his device. When restarted, the phone said to format the external card. ?

I can't for the life of me get my Evo running CM7 to read my 16gb card. I formatted it in FAT32 and also partitioned it. I even copied all contents from my 4gb over to the 16gb and it's not even seeing it. What am I doing wrong??
Is your card being read when it is completely wiped (free of any content) ?
You can try formatting it in your phone. Are you sure the card is real?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
When this happened to me I put my micro SD in a card reader formatted with windows to fat32 and then formatted again with phone and everything works well. Also Check your PM
My evo will -not- read cards formated on my computer. LOL, so i just format inside the phone and partition it with the recovery system.

That mostly happens if your Computer formats it in NTFS
Thanks for the help guys!
I was actually making a reply here and accidentally turned my computer off and totally forgot it.
Yes the card is real. I use it with a adapter and card reader on my computer. I have formatted it on my PC with FAT32 and also partitioned it since I had to.
It's not being read when fully wiped either.
I'll try what's stated above and report back. Thanks!!
Mine did this, and it was a dead card. I was able to put it in a card reader and get most of my data off. Most are lifetime warranty. Had to send mine in for a free replacement (Transcend 16GB card).

3-list disk
4-select disk (#)
5-detail disk
6-clean
6-clean
7-create partition primary
8-active
9-format fs=fat32 quick
Here is a YouTube video showing how to do it. Except our sd card needs to be formatted fat32.

Or you could just use SD Formatter 4 for even faster easier fixing.

After using the scan dish program several times I noticed the SD card was not recognized by teamwin recovery every time.
It could have been a fluke but I think.
The MS DOS commands in the OP are more reliable.
I'm using lenovo A7000 and recently updated marshmallow and chosen 32GB SD card as internal memory. It was worked as internal memory perfectly quite some time, all of sudden I got message that SD corrupted and doesn't show data stored in the card, it shows zero files, I lost all media files!! However USB storage option in settings SD card shows 6.5GB used out of 28GB. Since it's treated as internal memory I'm not able to read the card in other devices. I have important media files and documents in SD card and I didn't backup them. I'm bit worried!!! How to recover the data from SD card. I assume if SD card changed back to portable, it will format and lose data!!! Please support

I've heard of this problem before. Good luck
After step 9, is it possible to change it to another format type or does it need to stay on fat32?
Also, does the sdcard need to be connected directly to the pc? When I tried list disk while the sdcard was still in the phone (sdcard>phone>usb>pc), it wouldn't come up.
Had the same thing happen to both mine and my wife's SD cards in the Note 4....I think its the phone screwing things up. When it happen to me the phone rebooted and then the card was corrupt. The are like ticking time bombs..
I use the drive format tool from hiren''s boot usb. 1 click and Works like a charm.

We can just format these corrupted micro sdcards by using the Format SD card in the phone's storage settings? What do you mean by 'dont Use the note 4' though?
I wiped it on my computer, then put it back in once android was started and immediately wiped it, it's worked every time so far.

The note 4 will bootloop with the sdcard you used to root due to the fact it has your bootloader original CID stored on it as a fail safe (something messes up during the procedure ) but any device not using said CID is fine ....I used a Huawei ascend to format .worked fine and formatted card without need of pc.
I was running stock until today, with a Sandisk SD card formatted as internal storage because my phone was full.
After flashing a new ROM though, it's saying that the SD card is unsupported. I don't want to format it because it still has all my photos and videos on, is there anything I can do?
I presume when it gets formatted to work as 'internal storage' is gets formatted to extfs or something like that so Windows won't be able to read it to get the files off right?
Any ideas?
try using a card reader and see if it can read the data. worth a shot atleast.

If it was internal it is encrypted and AFAIK only usable with the device it was originally created with without altering the OS. So, from my point of view, no chance to get the data back. Maybe with some special tools, but that I don't know...

Thx, I'll try that. Just one quick question did you continue using the SD card as internal memory or you just used it as external storage?

Hi I wanted to clean the cache partition from stock recovery but accidentally factory reseted my Nokia 6.
The SD Card was formatted as internal storage and now the phone does not recognise it and all the data is stored in there with no access and yes it is not accessible from any computer.
So is there a way to recover those data?
Happened to me last year. I tried a lot of things and lot of searching but sadly, nothing could help me recover the SD or the data. I had to get a new SD card.

New SD Card isn't the problem the problem is the files within the SD Card. There are some very important files in there.
I have found something (or so) a software called Disk Drill it is a paid software but haven't tried it. Don't know if it works or not
