SDCARD format ( writeprotect ) ISSUE :( - HTC Sensation

Today i took my sdcard out my phone put it into a sdcard reader formatted it and wrote a disk image (.img ) to the sdcard and installed chrome on my PC. After i re formatted it put all my stuff back on and put it back into my phone. later on i had to format sdcard again so put it back in sdcard reader went to format but windows said it was write protected but its not. so put it back into my phone formatted it and then went ahead and mounted the sdcard through my phone to pc went to format and also said its write protected so went to format with my phones settings and it formats it what the hell windows cant format but my phone can :S very confusing can anyone elaborate on this and help me fix this issue thanks.
Also 4EXT recovery lets me partition aswell but when mounted still says write protected on windows so looks like ONLY my phone has R/W access to the sdcard
BTW its a class 10 16Gb

There might be glitches when it comes to PC. Have your pc ever been connected to other external storage types. Because my external hard drive is named, lets call it A, when I connect my phone to PC as external storage its A as well because its the same USB port. Try changing USB ports and let it reinstall.

I think your card reader is broken. I've one like this.

Hi man,
Using Windows's Sh1t tools or using *nix system format your SD using:
( under linux )
Code:
#!/bin/sh
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd** # where ** are your sd's proc
fdisk /dev/sd* # * are your main device, like sdb or sdc
mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/s*** # where *** are sdb1 or sdc1
Insert again your sd into sd slot
Have u applied some init.d tweaks? like thunderbolt or same?
Isnt this my problem

You tried it when the phone is switched on?
Because, I had the same problem.
A 32-GB SD card was nt being recognized and I did this a couple of times.
The phone lagged,but, the card was recognized at last
backup your file in recovery mode.. then wipe cache and factory reset.. if your sdcard works just restore back ur data in recovery mode..

What Do I Do If My SD Card is Corrupt?

I cant see my files on my SD card when view them on my PC. This happens even if the SD card says its got 4.3 GBs of files.
Does this mean that my SD card is corrupt? Do I need to buy another one? Would reformatting fix this SD card?

try backup the files to your computer, if it's able to transfer the files and the file can be opened normally (eg. open document or picture)
then format the card on your phone, and then transfer the files back to your sdcard

But do you think that its better to just buy a brand new sd card? Or do you think reformatting it would make it like new without any issues?

if your card is quite old, or it's a cheap brand then you should get a new one.
if you like to save some money, then try to reformatting is just cost you little time to know if it's still usable

If it isnt the sdcard problem... i doubt its the drivers fault of you're pc .. try to reinstal it
hope my suggestion can help you ! Had one situation like this but i had driver problem from my pc
Format the sdcard. Backup your files first. If not, just buy a new sd card.
if u tried formatting and its working then congrats....u saved some bucks....
otherwise i suggest buying a good brand SC card with enough memory to support your needs.

Cannot copy movies from internal to sdcard?

Hi guys,
updated to lollipop but now cannot move my files from the internal memory to my sdcard, worked fine before the update!
In ES explorer I try to copy and paste but get a Hint pop up telling my to choose root directory of ext-sdcard to grant permission?! I tried it but it doesn't show the SD-card only internal
Does it mean I have to re-format the card?
Edit: dont seem to be the only one
https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/790223/es-file-explorer-stop-working-if-you-update-it/
Thanks
Or you have to root and use some apps to override the security settings or with stock rom you can use your pc to do the action.
Sent from my SHIELD Tablet using XDA Free mobile app
I've gotten the exact same problem when I tried doing this, with FX File Explorer Beta and Solid Explorer. The system settings also recognize my SD card.
You shouldn't have to root your tablet to do this; the Storage Access Framework is supposed to allow you to access anything you give it access to. Allegedly.
Is ES File Explorer a stock app now? In KitKat, stock apps have full SD card control. That's why Samsung's File Manager was always so wonderful: it supported transfers from internal storage and Dropbox and FTP straight to the SD card. I'm not sure whether the Shield deficiency is due to NVidia making an oops, EStrongs thinking they need more permission than they do, or Google tightening the noose on Android again.
It would be great if anyone anywhere had any pairing reports regarding this.
I didn't require to root before so not sure why i should now. All I want to do is copy the file over to the ext-sdcard without having to remove it every time i want to add a file to it! damn annoying
ok formatted to NTFS and 64k and now working!
Have the same Problem with ES. My Shield Tab is on 5.0 and not rooted. My 64 Gb Sandidk Extreme Pro card is formatted to ntfs. I can't move files from internal to sd, alot of roms for emulators, not working. But move games to sd in the settings seems to work. I red somewhere that since KiKat 3rd party apps have no permission to write to sd. So i think only rooting helps!
Okay, let me get this straight. I can format an SD card to 64kb and NTFS... is that in sectors? I only know so much
... Or I can format it to FAT, which I know about.
I have a microSD card reader for Android tablets, and the system is throwing up a "format your USB device" message straight from gingerbread. It's old but it looks like it'll work... Using an external device to format my internally destined external storage? Sneaky.

Lollipop's team needed less Chromecast and more UI completeness, methinks. At least this feature is still included.

Bypassing 4GB filesize limit of micro sd card

By default, if you format micro sd card, it will default for fat32 which has file size limit of 4GB. Xiaomi do not have exfat or ntfs support due to licensing issue, so formatting to those will not work...The internal storage do not have the 4GB limit because it is formatted as ext4.

So the solution is to format your microsd card as ext3!
If you have linux, just use gparted to format your microsd card and it will work.
For those with windows, you can format to ext3 on the phone itself. Your phone needs to be unlocked https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...solved-bypassing-360h-wait-to-unlock-t3791083
1) Download this multirom twrp which supports microsd https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=890129502657596450
2) Reboot to fastboot (press down button when switching on from off state)
3) Download the fastboot file into your pc if you don't have and extract https://mega.nz/#!doll1BLJ!M7OzdIERz7XBknTwAVMauoaRkWLT6uArE2PD2vyM5xU
4) Inside that adb and fastboot folder, shift+right click and select open command window
5) Place the multirom twrp into the same folder as fastboot.exe, rename it as recovery.img
6) Type the following into the command line and press enter after each line:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery.img
7) In twrp, go to wipe > advanced wipe > tick micro SD card > click Repair or Change File System > change file system > EXT3 > Swipe to Change. After that, boot phone normally
Alternative way if you want to format ext3 on PC instead of phone: https://www.easeus.com/partition-ma...-ext3-based-linux-partition-from-windows.html
Now you can connect phone to PC, windows can see the ext 3 micro sd card in MTP and you can keep files bigger than 4GB in memory card
I didn't know this until I copied a 5gb movie from my PC to my RMN5's sdcard and it says the file is too large bla bla. lol.
Thanks. Will format my sdcards to ext4 now.

There is not a 'decrypt sd card' feature at the phone too My Android is 7.0
I tried almost everything from software, minitool, easeus, diskinternals, diskgenius.... Even i see the partition of the SD card i can't restore it (Android 6.0 ARMMeta Partition and Android 6.0 ARM EXT Partition)
The problem started when the phone literally rebooted on its own when i played a Clash Royale using (NOX-app++ many accounts tool _guide) It rebooted with a message to reinsert the SD card and here is where the problem started I search for malware with 4 different programs and i don't think it's ransomware or something related with a virus
You people are my only solution because i have some photos in there i don't want to lose....
Thanks, every one for his time
I attach related photos of the problem (from the storage, sd card contents, security.)
Does this look to you as partition problem ?
The fact that is main storage means it is encrypted so if i move the main storage back to internal memory will it unlock ?
Any ideaas ?
I fired Ubuntu with fsck to see if there is a something that can be fixed but looks like as you said before the internal format of the SD (i double checked it and saw at the phone that give you the option to format it as portable so the internal format is already used) had a custom format type outside of the ordinary
SO i assume the SD is format as internal with a custom format due to encoding and that put us to the encoding section
If the keys were damaged or lost the internal storage of the native phone shouldn't boot too, right ?
However, the internal storage works fine and only the SD is not recognizable reporting 0 files (but keeping the total of GB that are used even if it doesn't report files)
How do you think i can decrypt the SD when i don't have the option in security ?
