Today i was attempting to partion my SD card so i can install more applications on my phone(i hate the low internal memory i have). Anyhow, i used this tutorial to get it done, and now my SD card wont be recgonized by either my pc or phone, i tried booting into recovery in my phone and partion it trough recovery, all i got was "Mounting of SD card failed!". On Pc it actually picks up that thre is an SD card inserted, but wont read it.
I realize that i need to format it, but there is no option to do so on PC, or at least i cant find it, im guessing a special programm might be needed.
Any ideas?

hey, is the sd locked for been read only by the phone?
if I put the sd on a usb card reader I can't read it, the pc says to format it...
if I format from the pc with the sd in the phone on mass storage the phone says that file system is wrong...
is it normal? any solutions?
Try unmounting it in the phone go to settings and storage. Then try erase SD card and see what happens.
did it yet, it just format the sd and is locked again...
is a kingston 8gb class4, it was on the phone when I bought it...
I think the file system thing could be the problem...
I had problems with the SD card on my phone. It was actually causing the screen to freeze in stand by even pulling the battery and restarting wouldn't get the phone to work. Tried re-rom'ing the phone going back to factory rom nothing working. Left for a few minutes and screen would freeze.
New SD card and sorted all my issues out!
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.
So my Pantech Burst P9070 is having issues. In clockwork mod recovery (cwm) it said my SD card couldn't mount so I tried formatting it. Well apparently I must have done something wrong during the formatting process because my SD card (internal) is no longer detectable by my phone or computer. My phone shows a notification saying that my SD card is damaged and needs to be formatted but when i press the button to format it, my phone says that the SD card is removed, but I do not even have an external SD card so I am confused. Please Help!!!:crying::crying:
Don't panic. If you are trying to use your sd card for songs, apps, photos etc, then just go into windows or any other partition manager, do a FULL wipe and make sure its FAT 32. If you also want to increase your internal storage visit my thread Hope this helps.
But how am I even suppose to use the windows or any other partition manager if my SD card isn't detected by my phone or computer?
Disk Management
Look in the Disk Management Tool in Windows Vista or above.
If you don't have that or it doesn't detect it you can download a disk partitioning tool to do the job.
It none of the tools work from Windows verify that the card is unmounted in Settings and try formatting it form Android.
Hello there, i have a little newbie problem with my old SD card. I used my Sd card as "internal storage", but when my old phone died, i bought a new one, but it refuses to work with old SD card. When i plug it in, Android says "unaceptable sd card", then it let me chose if i want to use it as external or internal storage, no matter what i choose it can't finish formating.
I tryed throught card reader with different applications for windows, tryed DiskPart, but every time it says SD card read only mode. Theres no usual way to format it , not in m phone, not throught Windows. The last way i didnt used is some Linux Os for my pc, but i never used it and im afraid it could be unrealistic for me.
Is there any other solution for my issue? Thanks for atention
Ok.
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
