S8 - SD Card Unrecognized - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

I have a issue with my SD card. My phone it show that It's "unsupported."
The SD card, witch works on others phones, and PC, and worked on this phone also...I tried on another S4 and another S8(I even format it on that phone), and it works there. On mine, no...I even tried the tray from another S8 and it won't work, but on the other S8 it will.
Funny is that I took also a old card 2g from another guy and that one worked.
I got a new one 64g from Costco and it didn't work(same card as my buddy has in his S8..working)
Also one time after the latest update ( 29Sept), my card appear to be working for a brief period. but after I took it out and put some stuff on it from Pc, once I put it back in S8, I have the same message...unsupported..and again it works flawlessly on others phones or PC
Formatting in the phone, won't work...it will stop at 20% returning same error: command '22 volume partition disc: 179,0 public' failed with '400 22 Comand failed
Other steps I did...Cleared phone cache and even reset to factory default...No luck
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Thanks

...nobody?

sd card not found, only asking to format now

i was just trying out andftp (unsure if this was the reason, but it was the last thing i did) off the marketplace and couldnt get it to stay connected. decided to end that and reboot, phone started back up saying sd card not found and the notice asks me to "format cancel"
just put the sdcard in my pc and its showing everything on the card so i'm backing it up. have been using it no problem for the past 20days so its not the format of the card or anything. once i'm done backing up i figure i'll reformat the card and see how that goes but couldnt find anything searching the forums. anyone had this problem or possibly why it started doing this after a restart of the phone?

I had this issue when I had my CLIQ. This was the beginning of my SD card dying. I hope its not what yours is doing, but just was similar to what happened to mine before it died on me all together.
i just got it roughly 20 days ago, hope its not
I've had a similar problem with my SD card. I could read the files just fine on a pc - albeit a manuell fsck found errors which could not be corrected even after several passes.
After reformating the card it now works fine again. This happend about two weeks ago.
after backup and reformat it still wouldnt read in phone, tried putting files back on also. finally booted phone up without a sdcard in, rebooted with it in and it recognized it. stock, not rooted, hopefully doesn't happen again

SD card not mounting

I was playing Let's Golf 2 yesterday, and I ended it improperly by pushing the Home button. Since I rebooted from that incident, the SD card is not mounting anymore, and the system is telling me that it is damaged or its filesystem is not accepted. Since it's the very same stock card which comes with the phone and has worked properly since it came (and of course works in other phones and computers), I am quite puzzled. Any other card I mount receives the same treatment, so it's something on the phone. I have my bootloaders unlocked and I have flashed the 2.3.3 rooted version per Flashtool and Fastboot.
I guess it's time for reflashing, or do you folks have any idea I could use?
I had a similar problem. Turned out my SD card was cracked. This brings me to my problem. After loosing my SD card Crash won’t run anymore. Does anyone know how I can restore it? I really liked that game.
Edit: Never mind. I opened it again and now it gives me an option to download the game again. I need to do it over wifi when I get home.

the infamous "SD card is damaged" message

my phones just done this to me today again .. i forgotten not to take it into the chillers again ( the last 5 times I gave in and reformatted the sd cards , but I know their is nothing wrong with it
if i drop into recovery mode i can easily access the sd card
i swap the sd card for other *working* cards and the same issue so I am now thinking its software related with the installed OS
I did a nan backup restore of the OS install ( going back to an old install all worked going back to the current install it failed )
this ruled out dysfunctional slot
so where may the issue be with the install
I am assuming because of condensation on my device at the time it marked something as bad , how would I clear the error ?
first of what rom do you have? there are many that wont read your card until it is formatted correctly. this includes sometimes swap, maybe ext, and of course fat32. in other words a little more info needed, but worse case if you have a backup, just flash new rom, flash backup and call it a day.
i've noticed this happening to me alot these days as well, but i also noticed that if i go to settings- storage and unmount then re-mount the card it usually works fine from there on. maybe u can try that see if it works.
I was getting this message for no reason as well. When it did happen, I would take the SD card out and start it up on a PC with Hiren's BootCD and boot into Linux. I'd open up the partition manager, run a check on all partitions and after everything's said and done, put it back in my phone.
Worked everytime... then they became more frequent & eventually my SD card died. An 8GB card reduced to a recognizable 4GB. never thought that could happen.

You need to create an ext4 partition I had the same problem these days. Good luck.

Dell streak 5 internal memory test fail

Hi
I have a dell streak 5 which had a faulty screen but was still working. While the screen was still faulty i noticed the screen would stuck on O2 logo. By that time i already ordered a new screen. My screen just arrived today and i replaced it.
I am still stuck with O2. I tried flashing but get an error when its about to finish flashing something like " could not mount ******** log files, gif files etc" and then it switch off. Its quite fast.
I tried an internal memory test in fastboot and it failed. I removed the 2 GB memory card and tested in a pc, i was asked to format it. I tried 2 other memory cards in my dell but all them failed the test.
CMD/CLOCK TEST : FAIL
CMD/ DATA TEST : FAIL
permanent write-nonprotection
Anybody in the same situation and having found a work around please assist.
Can the OS run on the external memory? if yes how and where to get it?
Any common cause the MB to not detect the Micro sd card?
Thanks for taking your time to read my post.

If a new card is not detected and used, and i believe it should be, you have 2 things to look into, create partitions on the replacement microsd card to replicate the partition layout, i don't think you should need to do this though.
Probably more likely, there is a fault with the microsd card slot itself, or its chepset, in which case that is totally a hardware issue, unless its a easy fix a new motherboard is a possible fix, abeilt prohibitively expensive.
You should also look into other methods of recovery like QDL Tool.
To me it sounds like the internal microsd slot is broken or some other fault in that area.
As for using external as internal, i do not believe this is possible.
You mean create partitions in windows as I would do with any disk. Does doing a factory reset create the necessary partition?
QDL tool. I don't know how to use it. I found a lot about it. Can you suggest a good link where its explained in details the steps you are suggesting me. Your favorite.
i had same problem 2 months ago
i formatted and flashed olleh 407 15 time and luckily it worked

Same thing just happened to me. I clicked FORGET and i can't get the SD càrd to properly format. Not only have i lost all my data when formatted as internal storage, but now i can't get it to work. I've had this MX since launch with no issues.
try formatting it in a PC.

Hi, did u fixed it? I faced with same issue. Im looking for solution, will let you know if i get some.
Even I have the same problem I called customer care and they told me to visit service centre. I also tried factory reset but no use
Same here. I tried format the SD card in a Mac and a PC, tried again with other cards, but I have the same (frustrating) result. The only thing I didn't try yet was restoring the device, and I don't know if is a good idea (seems didn't working for any other person with the same problem).

Hi did you get that resolved?
I am having the same problem. I was using my old MicroSD Card. After the update for Android 6.0.1 it appeared a message saying that the card was corrupted or something like that and i might need to format it. I try to do so and and error appeared while formatting it as Internal so i remove the SD card and restart the cellphone and tried to do it at least as External Storage but i got the same error. So i bought a brand new MicroSD Card Class 10 32 Gb and had the same issue. I did a hard reset and start over and i have the same outcome.
All my SD Cards that i tried to use got recognized on my friends cellphones. Moto G Turbo, Moto G 2nd i got a Moto X play. The difference between them and i is t hat i have Android 6.0.1 and they 6.0.
Does somebody found the solution to this issue? . Which version of Android do you have 6.0 or 6.0.1. Everything got screwed up after the update.
Additional Details:
1. After the error appears the SD card is not being read anymore even if i eject it and insert it again. So i erased the Media Storage Cache and External Extorage Cache, restart the cellphone and put back the SD card again and i got recognized with the message that i need to format it. I try too many time reproducing this issue and i always got the same frustrating result. The SD cards were formatted on Mac and PC and also other Motorola phones and Same ****.
2. Called Motorola Services Desk on USA and LATAM. One of them told me to restore the cellphone to brand new state. I did it and same ****.
3. Am so sad for this not much information available
The same issue is there in many custom ROMs as well. I feel it's got something to do with 6.0.1 rather than the sd card itself.

No. I just bought the Moto X play. I was working fine with an Old SD Card. After i upgrade to 6.0 to 6.0.1 the SD Card is not read anymore and showing errors while format it internal or externally. I bought a faster card class 10 and same error. The thing is my friends with no update can read my cards without problems using same cellphones.
My sd card went crazy too after 6.0.1 though after a few tries I did manage to save everything on it into my pc using the sd card adapter. Then I did the slow format in Windows and put it back into the phone. So far it seems working fine.

I will try on a pc...did that on osx with Parallels Desktop...no go!
I have had the same issue as some above. Went wrong two weeks ago when the latest OTA became available from Motorola. The moment the phone restarted I received a warning that the microSD was not formatted, which had been previously set up as internal storage. I am 100% certain that it was the upgrade to 6.0.1 that did this, and not anything physical. I've tried approx 20 different methods to try to format it, both in the now-rooted X Play and on my PC, and even when it appears to be successful it actually isn't. Windows 10's diskpart will show the partitions, whilst most will not. It's as if the card has somehow become write-protected. The 128gb card was not cheap, so if anyone has had the same issue and has a solution, please give any tips you can!
Hello any solution for this ?
I'm willing to try and flash the 6.0 stock. Reporting here asap!
I need a fix for thisssssss! SD Card is not garbage now is it?
no way
sorry guys, bad news! I downgraded to Stock Android 6.0, it didn't fix the problem.
will try with a brand new sdcard...to see if the mxp is somehow very picky...or more simply the sdcard reader is damaged
hi guys!
i have the same issue with new 64 Gb microsd card. did anyone get the decision?
