I left my sd card in my XDA when i flashed it and now it will not read in the XDA or in my card reader. Anything i can do to sort it or is it a fried card?
Have you tried to format the card in an USB memory-card reader/writer ?
JiC
How do i do that? It will not detect a card?
tried pocket mechanics ?
Have now tried pocket mechanics but it says 'could not format with the specified cluster size'. Have also tried flash format but says it is unable to format as other programs are trying to read/write to the card. I have tried closing all other programs etc before running flash format.
Any other ideas? In my pc card reader it says no card is found.
Help!
maybe the card is dead i had a flash card die on me once for no good reason
guess 1 thing you could try is to put the card in a digital cam or some other device to see if that can format it

I've tried opening my SD card on my pc using USB, and a card reader but it says it needs to be formatted D:
Is there any way to recover my files without formatting?
Can someone help me on this.. every time i plug my sd card to the PC it says "Format disk?" and when i plug it to my phone, it says "Blank Sd card". i can't reformat it and i can't access the files in my sd card..
i've tried several formatting tools, revery tools, but none of them work..
My sd card is SanDisk 2GB MicroSD card..
i Hope there is a solution..
There are a ton of threads on this. Search through and use a couple of them.
Sounds like you have a bad card or your are not unmounting the card in your phone.
Some viruses and rootkits will prevent your pc from formatting or recognizing external media. Verify your computer can recognize other cards.
yeah i know there are lots of threads about this.. but , no luck, non of them work..i plugged it at other devices and still the same.. xD w/c means sandisk is bad?

same **** happened to me..(twice!) and appaerantly there isn't any easy way to recover an sd card from that state. Easiest (though most expensive) solution is to just buy a new one..
Yep - sounds like its broke. BUT consider that back in the day a floppy disk would run you $1 or $2. If you scaled that up a 2gb card would cost $1,400 to $2,800.
Makes me want to go backup.
sound like its broken, but try to use minitool partition wizard.
use this settings:
-Choose Create as Primary.
-Patrition type Ext2
-Cluster size 4Kb Cluster size 4Kb
Hi guys,
My phones micro-sd card has been acting strange and was not being recognized at times by my phone. I then proceeded to put it in its SD card adapter and put it in my Mac and got an error saying the card was unreadable. I then put it in a reader on my PC and everytime I try to access the drive it gives me the 2 errors, "You need to format the drive...etc" and after clicking cancel it says that my drive is an unrecognized file format.
Recuva says it can't read the boot sector and running chkdsk gives me the message that the file format is RAW.
Just tried running ReclaiMe file recovery and it says the card is only 30.6MB while it is actually a 32GB card.
Do you guys think there is any hope? Or should I just move on?
Any help would appreciated. Got a lot of pictures and music I would love to save on the drive, plus ROM backups.
Thanks so much

I've killed an SD card before.. not sure how.. it had been partitioned EXT3 for a rom on a desire.. then re-formatted to normal..
but the problem came months after without notice one day the camera was failing and the gallery wouldn't open..
I tried a new SD card and things were fine so I figured the SD card died
Try to use MiniTool Partition Wizard on your pc, and delete ext partition and swap stay only on fat32. if that does not work format your card to exfat. If that doesn`t work try use program "winhex"(before i used it, my computer hadnt read my card). I repaired my card 3 times these methods.
You can use this ONLY on memory card reader.
hey guys! i bought an sd card 32gb Sandisk. i inserted in my phone and was working. i put the card in the usb adapter that was with card and then on my pc. i started transfering my files but all of a sudden it says that i need to format the sd card and that the sd had write protection. i tried to format the card but it says windows was anaible to complete the format. i tried to remove the protection using cmd but nothing happens. i tried sd formatter, and the disk management. still nothing. and my phone doesn't recognize the card anymore. i mounted it in my camera and said the card is not ready. and when i try to format i have ntsf and exfat as options and not fat32. oh.. and when i used sd formatter, although the card is 32gb it said 64gb the first time and when i retry it it said 1tb!! lol! and now it says nothing at all. just blank.
i don't know what to do... help me...
thanks in advance!!
Hi folks,
I have an SD card here that I was using for Adopted Storage but I've managed to get it stuck as an "adopted" card and can't seem to get it back functioning as a normal SD card
Long story short... I wiped the device the card was in but I didn't "unadopt" the SD card before hand - as in set it back to portable mode. While the device could recognise there was an SD card afterwards, it couldn't prepare it for use and suggested a card error or something to that effect.
I figured I'd just pop it in my laptop (Windows 10 x64) and re-format it but this didn't work. Failing this, I decided I'd "nuke" it using Minitools Partition Wizard. While this program had better luck identifying the card, could display and delete the partitions on it and could run the Wipe task - it had no effect on the card... the partitions just re-appear after any attempt to nuke them!
Has anyone any ideas about how I can restore this card back to a normal FAT formated SD card?
Just to clarify - I don't care for the data that might be on it... I just want the card back usable
Thanks
Recovering an "Adopted" SD Card?
The best solution for now would be to plug the sd card into a phone with android 6.0 so that the phone can read the card and then while setting it up,you can format the card as "normal "(the part where it asks you whether to use the card as in adaptive storage or for accessing files).

When I try this, I get "Unsupported SanDisk SD card"
I'm then asked to select either Portable or Internal and then Erase & Format but neither work. They fail at 20% and the message "Unsupported SanDisk SD card" is shown again
I'm a bit stumped. I thought surely the encryption used on adopted cards was only to stop external reads. It seems in this case it's stopping me from writing to or formating the card
