SD card gets rejected and unuseable - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello,
Sorry for my bad English
I've had a 16Gb SD card installed in my moto G4 plus as internal memory and after months of useage, all of a sudden the phone said 'replace SD card' while it was still in. So I pulled him out en tried to reinstal it, but that didn't work.
I've tried to reset my SD card by plug him into my laptop, but he doesn't get recognised.
So I can throw away my SD card ...
Does anybody know what the problem is, because this is second time I have this problem.

You'll probably have an option to format your SD card in Settings. Try that. That might fix this issue.
If your laptop isn't reading it, try a card reader, a different USB cable, or a different laptop altogether.

I tried to reset my SD with the reset function in Settings, but my phone doesn't even recognise my SD anymore.
I've tried 2 laptops, 2 card readers and 3 USB cables.
I think my SD crashed or something. But this is the second time this happened with 2 different SD cards.

Help SD card Problem

Hello! Although this is my first post on the forums, I have been reading extensively through these forums for the past ferw weeks since my acquisition of my new to me MDA (i.e wizard G3). Yesterday, I took out the sd card for a few hours and now when I put the card back in the wizard is not recognizing the sd card in the file explorer. I put the card in the PC and it is recognized fine there. I reformatted the sd card via FAT and inserted it back into the wizard but no luck. I soft reset the phone several times but in vain. I then eventually hard reset the wizard and THEN inserted the sd card but still not read. I tried going through the My computer--> Manage --> Disk Management but the sd card is not showing up on it.
The sd card is clicking in and out fine from the wizard. Any help would be greatly appreciated. All my medical programs were on the SD card. And with that many programs I cant just work off of the memory.
Thanks in advance

update
I installed the wm5storage and the program does not recognize the sd card either
Update
-Tried formatting to FAT with computer and re inserting did not work
-Tried Formatting with WM5storage and THAT didnt work either
-CID unlocked the phone, installed 3.08 ROM, and then "Crossbow reloaded" with 2,19 UK Radio Rom, tried inserting the sd card and still not work
-Tried formatting with "Flash Format" and the program says "no storage card detected"
I am thinking that I may have damaged the pins or something when I was reinserting the SD card, initially when I noticed the problem
2 options in front of me now!
1. buy another mini SD card and see if that works
2. Open up the Wizard to see if it is a hardware issue
Opinions etc would be greatly appreciated
thanks

Ive got the same problem with my Qtek 9100
hi i had a near identical problem occur with my xda mini, as in after removing and reinserting my sd card it was not being recognized. i happened to have a old mini sd card (only 64mb tho!) and that was recognized. so i just bought another 2gb sd and its been fine ever since, but saying that i have not removed it from my mini yet! which is getting a little annoying now as i was given a copilot kit and the software is on a mini sd card
Try removing all formatting and then allow the phone to format your card. I had a problem with my second MiniSD card after formatting on my PC.
Insert your card into your card reader. Right click "My Computer" and click on "Manage". Then left click "Disk Management", find your card and delete the partition. At this point, you can then stick the card into the phone and it will ask if you would like to format the card. Even though the computer will not recognize the card, your phone will.
Snapin Disabled
I tried the approach of right click my computer--> manage --> disk management --> but it tells me that the snappin is disabled and when I go into start--> run--> gpedit.msc --> to enable the disk management it still does not recognize my storage card in the disk management. Hence I am unable to remove the partition.
Thanks for the replies guys, any suggestions on how to enable the specific snapin on XP?
Thanks

New Mini SD Card
OK, so in attempts to diagnose the problem, I went out today and purchased another 1gb minisd card, inserted it into the wizard and................NOTHING. Still no luck. Does this narrow down to the problem to a hardware pin related issue? Or could this still be a software problem. I figured that a new sd card may resolve the issue but unfortunately not, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Ideas? Suggestions? Recommendations?
Thanks in advance

If you tried another card and a new ROM, I would say it is a hardware issue, if it's still under warrantee then I would send it in. If it's not and you want to try to fix it yourself, there is the HTC wizard maintenance manual (Google search) that will give you step by step instructions on how to disassemble it. Or sell it on eBay then use the money to buy a new one.

Micro SDHC 8GB card

Hello,
I'm having issues with my Micro SDHC 8GB card (class 6). Whenever I connect the MicroSD card to my diamond2 phone, it works for a while and then it disconnects (the phone does not detect that there is a microSD card connected). To get my phone to detect the card, I either manually remove the card from the phone and insert it back in, and if that doesn't work, I soft reset.
I don't think its because of the card since it works flawlessly on my computer and I don't think its from the ROM, since before updating to Dutty ROMS, I used to get the same issue.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards
Your card is likely going bad. The phone will lose it first then the PC.
You may want to back it up and reformat it.
I just lost my SanDisk 16gb after multiple times of reformatting it and eventually is would crash again. No physical damage to the card. Just couldn't take the rewriting and deletions....
Connection mode issue
When you connect your USB. You have 3 options. Active sync, internet sharing or Disk drive. I think your's might be in the disk drive mode. So it doesnt read in your windows as HTC Hero drive. But check out if there is another extra drive that shows on your My Computer. If it is so, select the option Active sync and you can see your Micro SD card there.
Thanks,
Raj

[Q] T-Mobile HD2 having trouble reading it's own MicroSD card

We have a T-Mobile HTC HD2, it came with a 16GB MicroSD card.
Lately, the phone is having trouble reading this SD card, and ONLY this SD card.
Any other MicroSD card I plug into it, from other phones or other devices, it reads them fine, and if I plug it's card into other phones or devices, they read the card perfectly fine as well! I tried it in other phones, in usb microsd readers, and even using a sd adapter in my laptop's built in sd reader, digital cameras, Wii, and PS3. The PS3 was the only other device that could not read the card,
But when I plug the card it came with into it, now it mounts it and works fine for about 30 seconds, then unmounts it and acts as if there is no card inserted.
We have had this phone for a year now with no problems of it reading it's own card before, any idea why this suddenly started happening? The owner said he recently dropped it, but that doesn't explain such strange behavior as refusing to read it's own card while reading every other card just fine, and the card reads on any device I plug it into so it doesn't appear to be damaged either.
Have you thougbt about tryinv to reformat your SD card, maybe it has become currupt? You can use the default windoes format software or the Panosonic software, most prefer the Panosonic software. Just do a google search for it to find it. To use the defualt Windows format software just go to Start>My Computer> and find your SD card listed as a removable drive and rigbt click on it then select format. Make sure to make a back up of your data that is on it if you can before you format it, and do a full wipe not a fast format and use Fat 32.
I tried SD Card Formatter 3.0 but it didn't help, it also refused to do a full format, claiming my card didn't support it.

Hmmmmm that program should have worked, curiouse?
Here is a link to the download for the Panosonic SD card formating software. Give it a try and if it does not work hour SD card may have just played out on you. What for others here to post with more advice tough befor you just toss your card and get a new one as someone eles may know something I Don't. Also go to this post, I know you have not flashed WP7 to your HD2 but this may still help as it will wipe any acidental portition that was made somehow on your SD card. Plus itcjist helps hou cover all your bases.

Thats what I used.
Also, I know about partitioning a drive, the sdcard does not have multiple partitions on it.

Sorry about that I just googled " SD Card Formatter 3.0" and it carried me to another site.
As I said in my last post I just linked the post to make sure you were covering your bases.
If you tried the Panisomic software with no joy then it is very possible your SD card is ready for a funeral.
Bit don't just take my word for it let some more members post with their ideas. Sorry I could not be of any more help.

MAGLDR USB Mass Storage Damaged SD Card

I understand that MAGLDR's USB Mass Storage isn't most people's first choice, and that it can be flaky at times, but I've used it without problems in the past.
However, the last time I used it, installing drivers took an abnormally long time, and I just canceled USB Mass Storage and went back to the menu. However after that, the SD Card is complete unrecognized in the phone, and when using an adapter plugged in to the computer directly, it tells me the SD Card cannot start.
It looks like the controller on the card is damaged. I was just wondering if anyone else has heard of this occurrence. I honestly think it's more likely that the controller breaking was the cause, not the effect. Perhaps that's why it was taking so long to install drivers?
damaged/faulty SD Card readers do happen, have you tries to delete the partitions and reformating the SD Card.
I have lost 2 cards with my HD2 and am currently on the 3rd, I have no explanation but thats the wat it is

SD Card showing Unsupported and Unmounting automatically on Android, fine in laptop

Hi,
My Sandisk Ultra 32GB microsd card is not getting mounted on my Moto X Play from yesterday on. It was working perfectly before that.
Problem in Detail: Yesterday when i tried to play some music only I realized that its not getting mounted. I tried removing the card and reinserting it. But it's not showing up any notification. When I went to 'Storage and USB' settings suddenly after reboot, its showing 'Unsupported' for a minute and is getting unmounted automatically.
Possible Cause: One of my friend connected my phone with USB cable to his laptop day before yesterday for transferring data. I dunno exactly whether its infected or he didn't eject it properly.
What all I Tried: Initially, I tried connecting it to my laptop using Card Reader. Fortunately, everything was fine inside the system. The file system FAT32, all the data it had, and no memory was unallocated. Afterwards I did a quick format and a complete format as well, with file system FAT32. Both didn't help anyway. Then I installed mini tool partition wizard. But haven't done anything with that yet.
Kindly help me with this ASAP.
Can you use your SD card with the phone ?I have the same problem - my sd card is not recognized by my MXP. There was some speculation that the SD card slot is not working properly or just damaged however all SD cards I have are working fine just nor with my phone.As of today there seems to be no fix to this bug.

I have tried this SD card in my friend's phone and it is working fine.
Afterwards, tried formatting the card from that phone, my laptop, (quick & complete with different names) and the tool "sd card formatter" (erased everytihng).
I even tried a factory reset of my phone.
Nothing helps. Really frustrated
try the slow format sd card option from pc...
