I'm going crazy here! Out of no where my 64gb card would no longer allow me to write to it or delete anything from it. Probably had it for about a year without one problem. I tried wiping it, reformatting it, and no matter what I was sick with what was on the card.
Figured the card was corrupt so I bought a brand new one. Formatted it fat32, installed it and transferred a bunch of movies & pictures to it on my pc without a problem. Now I'm trying to transfer a movie to it I downloaded to my internal memory & it fails. Trying to download a movie directly to the external sd card I keep getting the same error "no such directory".
I'm rooted running liquid smooth, & checking root explorer it is mounted as rw.
What am I missing here?

So I'm fairly new to android phones and my GNex doesn't have an SD card so I don't know what to do. My friends HTC Desire HD keeps saying the SD card is unmounted and when he goes to mount it in settings, it keeps saying it is safe to remove it. What can I do? I tried putting in another sd card and it worked but this one won't. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I put the sd card into my computer and saw that all the files were still there. I put it back in the phone and now they've showed up. Why did this happen and how can I avoid it in the future?

So I downloaded latest cm9 build 10/25 and was about to transfer it to my micro SD card and noticed none of my files were there. So I went to settings and saw it wasn't even mounted. So I clicked mount and said damaged SD card, might have to format. Is there a way to get everything g back with out formatting? Luckily I have everything backed up on my comp. But if i didn't that would suck, really bad. Just wanna no why this happened and if possible to get my files back without formatting and transferring from comp
Try popping the card into an adaptor and mounting on a computer running Windows. Had a similar issue with my card after GB crashed and corrupted my card, but Windows was able to fix it.
So I got a new 64gb micro sd card for Christmas and it doesn't seem to work on my phone whatsoever. Every time I put it into my phone it says it's damaged and that I need to format it, but instead of formatting it, it erases all my files in the internal storage. I didn't realize it the first time and it was very annoying to find out it did that. The micro sd card does however, work on my pc. So I've tried to format the sd card mutiple times on my pc , using different apps and formatting it to different types, but none of it seems to be working. I do not think it has anything to do with my cfw I have on because I changed it and I'm still having the same problem. So any help or suggestions would be appreciated as I would really like to have the extra storage on my phone.
You have to format it as FAT32. Skyrockets won't read it if it's formatted any other way.
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.
Hi Guys, yesterday i decided to reset my xperia z5 to factory defaults because i wanted to have it with the apps i use the most and remove all of the others that i didn't use that much. So instead of uninstalling the ones i didn't use, as i said before, i did a factory reset. Before doing this i decided that it would be nice to take out my sd card to copy some pictures, without remembering that i had my sd card encrypted with my fingerprint, so i did the factory reset (with the sd card out of my phone) and after that i noticed that there was a marshmallow update for my phone, i accepted the update (with the sd card off my phone) therefore when i moved all the sd files to my NAS and i put the sd card back in i saw that all the files that i had moved to my NAS where still there. after that i decided to format the sd card with my surprise of seeing a Windows error message of "windows cannot complete format", i did a low level format, formatted my sd card with disk part, etc. None of the things i did worked, Do you guys know what i could do to my sd card to delete all the files in it?
Thanks a lot
