SDCARD format ( writeprotect ) ISSUE :(

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.

If it's locked you wont write or format your sd card

EDIT: I managed to solve the problem by rooting than installing FolderMount and than I linked the folders to extsdcard!!

Sent from my GT-I8190 using XDA Premium HD app

done that but problem still there. Although I found something:apparently the space is mounted like this:
external storage is actually the internal app storage and mounted as extsdcard is my 16gb sd card...

yeah i have also a galaxy trend plus and i have the same problem , i think the only solution is to find a way to swap internal with external memory, and i still searching for that , i tried Root External 2 Internal SD app but it didn't

well i guess either samsung change the mount points from sdcard to emmc for internal storage and from extsdcard to sdcard for external storage or google play app devs adapt their apps to install on extsdcard because at this point even obb files are read from internal so games bigger than 1gb might be a problem for us...

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

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.

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 ?

Save Screenshots, Messenger pics... In SD

If Adoptable Feature is supported then extend phone's internal storage memory capacity by adding a SD-cards up to 256 GB storage capacity to it.

I don't know, but prefer to keep my SD out in case of changing smartphone...

Store all your user-data you want to keep backed up in the cloud. AFAIK Google offers 15 GB for free.

I would like to do that cause on my Synology app i can't save automatically folders in internal storage (don't know why)...
So it's the objective

Because your Android is got rooted you can try to create on external SD-card the same named directories as they are present in internal storage memory, then move contents of these directories to SD-card, delete afterwards the directories in question from internal storage memory, and at last step create links in internal storage memory to those on external storage memory. Of course requires some knowledge of Android shell commands or the use of Root Explorer or similar apps.

Ok, ds File don't save internal storage if rooted ?!?
Should i unroot ?
I don't understand why dsfile Can save sd but not internal storage when rooted... It should grant Access to all or nothing no ?

Can not understand your thought processes, sorry.

But on dsfile with rooted device it can't work or you don't know ?

AFAIK DS file allows to access files on a Synology NAS with Android devices: what has this to do with your initially posted question?
Why not use
DS cloud​the easiest way to sync your files between your Synology NAS and your Android device?

Dscloud no more working, saying me it's no up to date.
I think it's no more working this app.
And dsfile is saving in background each Time you take a pic...
