hiya you lovely people, right, for some reason unbeknownst to me, my trinity has decided to go and encrypt all the files on my 4gig sandisk memory card, I really wouldnt have minded....except I didnt tell it to, I've never actually used the encryption facility/program so I have no idea why it encrypted, now, when I re-insert my card, my trinity is meant to decrypt them automatically (well, so I read) but nuffm, now I cant access anything on the *!"£$&% thing....does anyone here have any solutions?
Hello guys!
I would like you to lend me a hand here!
I have a rooted Stock Lollipop I9505 and the devil made me encrypt my device and Sd Card. I used Security settings from stock TW Lollipop. When i decrypted the device and the Sd card, my files became unusable. In the gallery app i can see my media but can not access them.
Instead a lock on a grey background appears.
I encrypted and decrypted a few times with the same password but i can not access my files. Please help me!
I did not reset my phone or delete any content from my Sd Card. I hope anyone can help me solve this problem.
Hello, i recently come back to the "dark world" of Android purchasing the P9lite.
Nice specs, good bargain for the price.
Then i decided to put a microSD card into it, and with my usuall luck, it seems this feature (of a normal Android 6.0 Phone) is disabled.
Any suggestion / Help ?
Unfortunately, Android's compability with SD cards declines with every new version, no idea why though.
Your problem can be solved the easy way - if you are rooted that is.
If rooted, check this site for possible solutions:
http://www.tomsguide.com/forum/id-2...d-setting-card-default-download-location.html
However, normally Android 6.0 SHOULD be able to use the SD card as adoptable storage. I don't remember though if the P9 Lite asks you how to use the card on first insert. This method requires encrypting and formatting though. See here for info:
https://source.android.com/devices/storage/adoptable.html
I don't really have the problem because I only install few apps and no games whatsoever so the 16GB internal storage is enough for me.
Pictures and music are on my SD.
If you want to root, check the excellent guides here on the forum. Really takes you like 5 minutes with some basic knowledge

You can make your microSD your default storage location for all apps by changing in Settings:
Settings > Advanced Settings > Memory & Storage > Default Location > choose your microSD here
To my understanding, this will make all your apps (Whatsapp, Facebook, etc.) to use your microSD instead of Internal Storage.

Sorry i dont use sd card on my p9lite. But my phone is perfect except the signal issue
My old phone is ASUS zenfone 4, now im using huawei p9 lite. I wanted to transfer all my data n apps in asus to huawei. but it seems that i cant find the transfer data apps
how can i transfer all my data n apps to my new phone?
Is it possible to just install a custom ROM like CyanogenMod? I heard that this one supports this feature.
maybe nougat will fix this?
hopefully nougat will allow us to do this!!
Emui doesn't support adoptable storage and move apps on SD card. I think it's a marketing choice so they incentive users to upgrade to a better phone with more memory but that has an higher price.
I tried in the past to force adoptable storage with adb but without success, the only way it's to install a custom ROM based on CyanogenMod/LineageOS.

i think apps will be installed on sd this way, as the used internal storage doesn't increase much when installing apps.
Hello everyone, I've the same issue. I root my device in order to be able to move my apps to micro sd card and set it up as default storage. And now, it looks that's not so easy.
I've formated my micro sd (32Gb) on my PC with Mini Tools Partitions Wizard like this : First partition : Create as Primary ; File System : fat32 ; Cluster Size Default ; Partition Size 19000Mb. Second partition : Create as Primary ; File System Ext2 ; Cluster Size Default ; Partition size 11521.93 Mb. Then I apply modifications. I insert the microsd card in my device, I reboot (don't know if needed), I open Link2SD, I try to move the app Messenger to sd card and I get : Failure "Error: java.lang.illegalStateException:â~fNo suitable external storage available". After that I touch on an other app "Messagerie" (Default app), and here I have the posibility to select 'Link to SD card, I try and I get the error : "Second partition not found, /dev/block/ : device not found, make sure you have two partitions on your SD card and both are primary."
In the Link2SD settings, I can't select the option "Auto link" or open "Auto link settings" it's grey and disabled.
Has someone read any news about that since March ? The P 9 Lite is a great phone but 16 Go internal storage is to tight ! Thank you for your help.
I removed my sd card for taking pictures from lappi and when I again insert it my phone is not showing sd card pictures .perhaps sd card is working fine in other mobiles what should I do?
My sdcard was mounted prior to the 7.0 upgrade pushed out today. After upgrading, it won't mount. In the setting it just says that it's corrupted and it wants me to format it.
Also my phone used to have encryption on it, such that when you booted it from scratch, you were required to enter the PIN before the boot would continue (this happens before the login screen where you have to enter the PIN), but since the 7.0 upgrade this is no longer required, and if I search the settings app for "encyrption" it comes up empty. Did android drop this feature and un-encrypt my storage on upgrade!??! Is this related to it not being able to read my sdcard?
It might be if you also encrypted your Sdcard. The option that you are talking about is now called secure startup, it is still under lockscrean and security. Try enabling that using the same password you had before the upgrade and reboot your phone. If the card is not truly corrupted it will unlock the card and give you access.

Thanks for the reply! Yes turning that setting on re-enabled my encryption and enforcement of entering the PIN on boot. Unfortunately it didn't seem to help the SD card. I hope it actually didn't go bad.
Hi,
I added an sd card to my G6 as a "normal" external card (not system extension).
Now I want to encrypt the sd-card. But if I try it asks me to set a pin/password. I do have a pattern lock and want to keep that.
Is it not possible to encrypt the sd card if I have a pattern lock?
Is there another way to make my files encrypted on the sd-cards?
Second question: as far as I read the G6 has system encryption by default. Is this true?
Thanks for you help.

1. Why not password plus fingerprint? I have it that way and need to enter the password only after boot.
2. Yes
I already have fingerprint. And I like the pattern lock so much. I can turn on and unlock the phone at once when it is on the desk. I like that very much. Therefore I would prefer that way. But it seems like there is no way for that.
As an aside, if we use a fingerprint for security someone (like a GF) could unlock your phone while you are taking a nap or sleeping over. Fingerprint reads are less secure!
