Hey all. Have tried multiple MicroSd cards from different brands and I always have the same problems. It reads as corrupt, photos/music cannot be read or seen, and it happens every time. This happens whether I format it as Internal or portable. (Portable is preferred.)
My G5 Plus is rooted, and is on Android 7.0. Would appreciate some help, not having any luck with anything I do.
I'm rooted and running pure nexus and haven't had the first issue with my portable formatted 32gb card. Are you on stock rom?
My kingstone 32Gb works great on stock, check if your SDs are fake. There are several test apps to check this
If it's asking to, let the phone format the card, I don't mean internal vs portable but an actual physical reformatting of the card. Backup any data on it, let it format, restore the data and see if that helps.
My good quality SD card used on a previous phone would give me the corrupt error on some roms but not others, and other users weren't having the error with their cards that I was, so I finally just let it reformat once and haven't had the problem again on any roms or stock.
Wondering if it maybe has to do with size of card? You both are on 32gb, but I am running a 128. Thoughts?
It is very possible my card could be fake (ebay purchase), but why would it run fine in other devices? How can I check for fake? It reads as a 125GB or whatever it comes out to when formatted.
Don't know where to do just a normal format. I have formatted it as internal and portable (which I want) and the same problems always resurface.
Thank you all for helping.

make a search over internet a generic site or in XDA a thread
They are used to flash the firmware of an old sd card (4, 8, 16 GB etc.) with a bigger one, so it will detect as a eg. 128GB but when you try to write more than 4, 8, 16 GB it fails. So i suggest to buy an original micro sd, you will pay more but it won't fail

Finally!!! Those who use 64GB or bigger cards can use exFAT. I can confirm it works as I'm using it right now. No more 4,5GB file size limit! (tested writing 6,5GB mkv video to the card, worked without any issues) Writing big files to the card is about 10-11MB/s (when I was using fat32 it was 4-5MB/s). It's a shame that it doesn't work in CWM though (can't mount - gives me error). But I think devs will come up with solution for this quickly. At least Phil in his thread about Touch CWM said that he will provide fix when official LS7 will be released. So now you know and you can enjoy!
SMALL UPDATE:
If SGN says that your card is broken and needs formating than you should let it format the card. Mine was formated in Windows with SDFormatter application and still SGN gave me message that I need to format the card. After format in SGN it works as it should.
SMALL UPDATE2:
If you decide to buy a 64GB or bigger card for your SGN it would mean that it almost certainly would be SDXC micro exFAT formatted. In specification there is only said that card readers even if they are compatible with SDHC, might not be compatible with SDXC cards. And that would have been ok, but in my case my old SDHC compatible Imono card reader was destroying my SDXC cards! Who would have suspect it? It happened 3 times and I was able to use my card after I bought a new card reader certified for SDXC and whole operation of exchanging broken cards took almost 2,5 months! So be careful where you put you 60 dollar card into! Old reader might read the card properly but it can damage while writing stuff to it.
It's not really that important if you plan on using your card only with SGN. At least I don't have any issues with it now. But then there wasn't JB for SGN and so I was trying to use NTFS and so I needed a card reader.
waow very nice news thank you
So happy about this wait for the official update to come!
best news i heard today. thanks.
- post from SGN.
Does this mean we can use files larger than 4gb?
Well, it should. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT states that exFAT should be able to support file size of 16 Exibyte

can i formate my internal SD to exfat??
will it work.. ??
I dont need SD card for my use.. Just need 1gb of the total space in it..
I didn't try that, but I'm pretty sure it's not possible, as exFAT doesn't come from Google and it's not open standard (I think Microsoft is selling liceneses for this). Even though Android on diffrent brands of smartphones is modyfied here and there to accomodate the devices and enhance user experience it's still Android and I've never heard that android is supporting exFAT. Even if what I say is wrong (I'm still half noobish so it's possible ) there would be no real benefit from using exFAT on internal sdcard (well apart from "unlimited" file size - like it would matter on 11GB of free space anyway ) as the system was designed for hotswapping/external devices and we have internal sdcard which can't be removed.
What's more I have better writing speeds on my internal card (12MB/s) than on external 64GB exFAT (max 10-11MB/s). I don't really understand what you mean by "I dont need SD card for my use.. Just need 1gb of the total space in it." You think that beacuse of exFAT you will have 1GB more space on your internal sdcard?
It said mine was broken,bla,bla,..reformatted, then week later said same thing!
Don't want to wipe valuable stuff or take it out all the time to back up
Sent from the man hiding in your attic......
I don't really understand what you're trying to get across here? If you put a 32GB+ exFAT format in your SGN, it will tell you the card is corrupt and ask you to format it (which you should do and which you also mention in your update), which will change it to FAT32 format, so you lose the exFAT format.
Am I missing something here?
Today received sandisk 64 gb sdxc. It was formatted exFat out of the box. I copied all data from old ed to new one. All work fine except clockwork. Clockwork can't mount exFat. Installed rom: Ultimate N7000 xxls7 v4. Kernel: Phil's v3.5
Guys,
The inbuild storage space is less for me. I have a 16GB class 4 sd card which is also full and i need more space. I am planning to buy a 64 GB Class 10 microsd card. Will note support the 64GB class 10 microsd card?
The post above yours sais it does.

I'm sorry but who needs 4+ gb files on their phone?
Just format your 64gb card using this tool! Regular windows fat32 format is capped at 32gb, but this tool will allow you to format the whole 64gb. This way you can have both 64gb storage and the card recognized by custome recovieries. Works great on my Note2 and S3.
Like alot of you, I recently had alot of trouble with my sandisk 64gb micro sd card. this fix is pretty easy but it worked for me! so check it out:
you need two programs: SD formatter( can be found on the sandisk website) and easeus partiton master( you can use any program that lets you format partitions)
you will also need the sd card adapter to put you micro in, and an sd card reader
Step 1: connect your sandisk 64gb microsd card to the computer with the adapter it came with in the box. My laptop has the sd card reader built in
I dont think it will work unless you connect it this way.
Step 2: open sd formatter, it should have recognized your card if not click refresh. after its recognized click Options and set format type to full (overwrite) format the sd card. this will take a long while so you might wanna go watch tv or something?
step 3 : after its done formatting open partition master and right click on the sd card and format it to fat32. your going to have to click apply on the top right hand corner for it to work
you should be set. DONT FORMAT IN THE ANDRIOD SETTINGS. for some reason when ever i fixed the micro and tried formatting it in my phone it would mess up everything thing again.
I keep a 32 gb in my s4 now and use my 64 in my note 10.1 because i need the space there more. Let me know if this works for you!

It really depends on the troubles you have, most of them are some kind of incompatibility with the S4 firmware and the 64GB SD card and formating this will not help. My issue was each time i'd put music on my SD, my system status would trip to custom, also my music would not always show up at boot. This has been a recurring problem with the sandisk cards no matter how i formated it. And yes, i did use SDFormater 4.0 and still had the issue. My only solution was to get a Samsung 64GB SD and no issues since
Sometimes mine removes itself, but a media rescan or reboot fixes it. Doesn't really bother me.
I use a 64gb PNY class10 and its flawless for me.I think the issue is witg the sandisk bran.

Figured this is a good thread to post my experience.
I had a MicroSD card I thought was bad. What happened was I was formatting the device to ext4 at the time using a older microSD USB adapter i had. Basically, the microSD card reader died while it was in that process. Using a microSD > SDAdater and a built in SD card slot on my laptop I was unable to format the drive in Windows or MacOS. (I was formatting the device via the USB reader on my Desktop in Ubuntu). Ubuntu does not see my card reader on my laptop so I was unable to use that). I thought I killed it. It was a SanDisk microSDXC 64gb card.
So I ordered a new Samsung microSDXC and a new microSDXC USB card reader. I got them both. New card worked great. I decided to play with the card a bit. Using Ubuntu, gparted specifically, with the new adapter I could no create or modify partitions on the old microSD card. It would fail out every time, different errors for ext4, exFAT and Fat32. So. In Gparted I went to Device > Write new partition table.After I did that I would able to format the drive in Ubuntu to whatever filesystem I wanted, and the card works in the phone, mac, windows, everything.
Just a heads up to help any others with issues. Rewriting the partition table may help if somehow it gets corrupt because of some write fail,
I ve 2 64gb sandisk 10x microsd with Samsung S4 I9005 with Android 4.3. I formatted with android, also Windows 7 64bit with various types of sizes on laptop. However on laptop or on phone after writing some files and disk scanning, it gives many disk errors. I wonder if it is software or microsd hardware problems. There is no problem with 32 gb.

Found the Culprit!
Considering I encountered this write protect error TWICE with the exact same product, and after having read forums that show it's a common problem, I conclude that the problem is with either this specific SanDisk product or a particular batch of this product:
Exact product specs: SanDisk Ultra 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card with Adapter (SDSDQU-064G-AFFP-A)
These carry a lifetime warranty. A word of advice: if you go for a replacement, ask for a different 64GB model, or try a different size of the same model (I got 2 x 32GB cards instead). If they insist on giving back the exact same model, I'd suggest you use that card anywhere except a smartphone!
Hello world,
I'll try to make it as short and accurate as possible. I have an S5 SM-G900F and until recently I was using a 32 GB micro sd card (formated in Fat32) that i had on my S2.
A while back the card just unmounted and died (i tested in another phones + on 2 pcs through card reader).
1st i bought a 64 GB card on ebay (a cheap one) and when receiving it I had 2 issues: the card was slow to read/write and no matter what method was used and how many files were transfered, after a reboot it would only display the first +/- 7.5 GB. The remaining folders remained, but with no files in them. I thought the card was defective and got myself a new one but went for a 128GB this time Read/write speed were correct but i still had this +/- 7.5 gb limit on it. I do not have any phones to test this time, due to the capacity, but on several computers, the size of the microsd card was correct and when connected through USB OTG when i had more that 10gb files on it, they displayed and played just fine (movies and music). It appears that the phone just "deletes" files going over the 7.5 GB threshold. I used the following methods to copy files to the card:
1. USB cable and MTP.
2. Card reader
3. Over wifi using ES File Manager
I thought that maybe the stock kitkat rom i had was the problem so i upgraded to a stock lollipop 5.0 (spanish one) but i have the same issue. I even tried unrooting the phone.
Has anyone ever encountered this kind of issue? Does anyone have any suggestion to try resolving this?
Feeling desperate here
can anybody help? please

Hi :good:,
Sorry to hear that you are faced with a Defective SD Card. Stop buying from ebay as the sellers most of the times are not authentic and the electronic products you buy will be fake from inside but looks absolutely genuine from outside.
Currently ONLY 'SanDisk' and 'Samsung' produces 128GB mmc card.
Try to reformat the Card as Full Format in Windows and check if it works.
if not then Delete the Card partition from Windows. Put it in the phone and it will be identified as Damaged Card. Go ahead with clicking the message and the Phone will Auto Partition and Auto Format the card.
If its still not working... then you are married with a Damaged Card.
Check if you are accessing the SD Card Folder over WiFi not the Phone internal memory Folder which is anyways will be much lesser. KitKat do not allow accessing the SD Card to 3rd Party Apps but there are few tricks here in XDA (search for it) which will overcome that.
Happy Troubleshooting.
So I have a Samsung Tab a6 7 T280 wifi and I've inserted a MicroSD card (128GB). I've done this with the stock os first and I just got the message card can be removed safely. and it wouldn't let me mount it.
Now I've installed the Tinker V5.1 Stock Rom over it and it still happens. (wanted a faster os on it).
I can reformat the card with twrp to be ext4 or exFAT and it doesn't change a single thing. if I insert the sd card I get a quick preparing card and then instantly the message card can be safely removed. clicking on mount sd card in storage from settings doesn't do anything except prompt same message.
I'd try a different sdcard.
Okay, so I hope I can help, I have the SM-T280, I do not use Tinker ROM, instead I debloated my stock ROM and use an SPA kernel by @_mone. If you're trying to extend storage to your tablet, you'll need to use a PC to partition the SD card two PRIMARY partitions. I used on Windows MiniTool Partition Wizard (free), and I used a FAT32 partition and an ext2 partition. With the stock ROM/kernel I had problems using ext4 or extFAT which didn't make sense to me but it is what it is, and I used the app Apps2SD to handle all the work.
The main thing, you need to make sure your SD card has TWO (2) PRIMARY partitions.
Good luck.

What about the Sizes? As in one partition 60 GB the other one also 60 GB ? Or the fat32 partition 1 GB and the ext2 the rest?

FAT32 is not for large capacity storage. Use exFat. There isn't much point in having such a large ext2 partition. It's incompatible with media transfer protocols unless you use a Linux system.
This device fully supports exFAT. I use a 64gb sdcard no issues.

I wouldn't think so, I'm sure it supports 128gb cards.
Just partition it into to halves. First partition exfat. Leave the other unformatted and see what happens.

partitioned into a 40 GB exFAT partition and left rest unpartitioned. Didn't change anything. if I pop it in the tablet I get a short preparing sd card notification then immediately an SD card safe to remove notification...
I'm really confused by this. The tablet is new so I doubt that it's broken but I don't know. Do you know if there's a way to check any kind of logs on Android like dmesg on Linux as an example to see what happens with the sd card?

According to Samsung, the T280 will support a 256gb SD card BUT I know from experience that SD cards over 32gb can be VERY touchy. If you use a PC to remove all of the partition and then let the tablet try to do its own formatting and it still doesn't work, I'd say you have an incompatible SD card. That doesn't mean the card is bad but that it just won't work in the T280.
As an example, a Samsung EVO+ card (which can be found on eBay for $30) will probably work while a "no name" card from China, probably won't.

Not sure it would make a difference.
I already did that. It would not let you use it as Internal Storage if I did not Format it first.
And you cant take a backup of internal SD. IIRC it will not be usable and apps that had data there will be also corrupted.
A couple of options. 1st is to try a cleaner like ccleaner and see if that sorts it by cleaning the cache, last resort is a factory reset which has worked before now. The other thing is that it could be either a fake card (possibly) and/or damaged but the last is highly unlikely.

Hmm weird that it is showing 256gb as the phone specs only allow up to 128gb. My guess is the card itself as I have a 32gb in mine and it shows up fine.

Man, I'm having this exact problem but with a 128GB Sony UHS-1.
This should be a bug in Oreo.
I have the same "issue" with a brand new 64 GB Samsung SD card. And: before updating to Oreo, the storage capacity was shown correctly. So this seems to be a bug in Oreo. However, I don't find any other comments on this on the Internet, so it's probably limited to the Mi A1?

On the same Oreo version I had no problem with 64 GB Samsung Evo plus but found bug with same type 32 GB card. Not native apps shows correct size but Android says that it's half of memory occupared by system files
My wife's A1 has a problem with SD card. It doesn't format either as storage or as internal memory. It's a original Sandisk 64Gb UHS-I. She used it in her former Moto X Style and I formatted in a LG Pad 8.3 without problems. I took a crap SD Card and it formatted as storage without problem in A1.
I am experiencing the same problem, this is still an issue. If anyone has an idea for a fix, please let us know.
Yes, same problem with a genuine Samsung EVO Plus 64GB SDXC card. Shows up as 128GB card with 64GB used when formatted as internal system storage, but as a 64GB card when formatted as "removable" storage. So it's a phone-specific bug in some way.
Same here, my phone is 32gb, installed a 32gb sd card and format as internal, now its show total 96gb and the card is 64gb with more than 32gb used.
I think it add internal onto sd card and show that 32gb is already use, which mean its show 64gb sdcard but actually we get same useable amount.
Btw its still show correct available free space so its not a problem.
Hello ! same thing here with a samsung galaxy s5 sm-g900f on resurrection remix oreo 8.1 with four differents card : size 16 gB on esxternal memory , 32 GB on internal memory and also for 128GB it goes to 256GB on internal memory
just want to try with android 6.0.1 with the patch which unlock this feature https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/general/patch-adoptable-storage-enabler-t3470648 and its not good either. i can see the right size of the phone 16GB , the right size of sd card 119 GB but the sum above show: 256GB
I do have the same problem with my LG G6 and Samsung Evo Plus 128GB memory card.
If any workaround, please post.
But it doesn't affect the functionality, it works as intended. But when I see the storage in settings showing odd numbers.

Yes, same problem with a genuine Samsung EVO Plus 64GB SDXC card. Shows up as 128GB card with 64GB used when formatted as internal system storage, but as a 64GB card when formatted as "removable" storage. So it's a phone-specific bug in some way.

I have the exact same problem. Same SD card. Although everything seems to work okay. Btw. I am on Android Pie.
In Solid Explorer the internalstorage isn't even shown. Only the SD card. Unlogical since the SD should expand the internal storage.
Imho a major f*ck up.
How can you trust your phone if the storage info is unreliable. ?
I have the same problem. I think it's a bug. See here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ra...al-storage-t3782347/post79349711#post79349711
Hi,
Any news about this bug ? I have the same on LineageOS 16.0.
Thanks
