How to fix a corrupted SD card

Hi everybody.
Is anybody has a way to retrieve data on a corrupted SD Card. I have a Sandisk 8GB which became corrupted after connecting the phone on an old PC.
All the content is still there I Guess (size of free space/used space is correct) but the name of the SDCard and of each folder and files are like... unreadable :
]░╣j╣Ð.%Ê
I tried HDD regenerator which regenerate ... nothing and Recuva like retriev only some images.
But i have some files very important on this card.
Please is anybody has a solution?
Well, now, tried Handy recovery. I saw my files, I can retrieve them but once retrieved, system said the file is corrupted. I used SPB Backup to create my saves.

you could run chkdsk on windows or look for some other file recovery software.

Check out wizcode software. They've got a few options (undelete, unformat, scandisk). I use scandisk all the time, and it does a good job fixing corruption. But when you have screwed up directories, it may be too late.

Try this software
DDR - Memory Card Recovery
I had a corrupted 16Gig Card and it retrieved all. I could not even see any files on the card and Windows kept telling me to reformat. It costs 50.00.

Hi,
First of all due to virus your card is corrupted and you can see your card like ]░╣j╣Ð.%Ê etc. Check out your anti virus for updated virus definition and scan your system and for your card follow the same way, scan your card , you will get your files back to original and if you could not get them back to original state then you have to use a third party data recovery software.
You can check Kernel for FAT and NTFS software for the same, it will preview you the data in scan mode and if you want then can save the desired files to specific location.
Thanks

tf300t Killed my files

I'm seeking assistance in restoring files that my tablet killed XD
I pulled memory card out of my my phone and installed it in my tf300t to watch movies and pictures i've taken on a bigger screen... after which the tablet created a folder called lost.dir and corrupted many of my pictures,videos and mp3s
Is there anyway to restore the files?There's about 8 big files in lost.dir folder some of them are joined together mp3's which i can open and play and some of them cannot be opened using anything
I really need to restore my pictures and videos or i'm just gonna kill myself :silly:

evidently the filesystem on your sd card was damaged and your tablet tried to fix it running fsck (or wathever android uses), did you properly shut down the camera before removing your card?
that directory is where linux filesystem recovery utility saves orphan files (files for whom directory data like name and lenght is lost) so they wont be overwritten and you can try something to recover them.

yes,i safely removed the sd card from my phone.Try something like what?i searched all over the internet and i cant find anything :S
this forum is my last chance XD

if its the external sdcard and you have a pc to plug it in try useing smth like getdataback (not free) or recuva http://www.piriform.com/recuva (free) and let it scan the card.

cheers

i already tried to restore the files..it restores already the corrupted ones...

[Q] recover deleted video on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1

Hi,
I spend two days on recovering my accidently deleted video, but without luck.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (GT-N8010).
I made video's with the camera app, the video's where stored on the local sd card, no external sd card installed at that time.
I clicked wrong button using Kies Air (WiFi) and accidently deleted the video's
I quickly found out it won't work without rooting the device. So I routed it using Odin. (Never knew it was so easy)
I installed an external sd card, this to use the internal one as less as possible, preventing the video's to be overwritten
I started with Undelete, but it won't work for the internal sd, probably because it is EXT4 formatted. It's FAT only.
Next was Hexamob Recovery Pro, but it finds only some video's that are not deleted...
Disk Digger finds a lot of small video's, none of them is playable, nor by the tablet or computer (windows 7)
I found this howto: http://android-photo-recovery.com/t...deos-from-android-phones-internal-memory.html
Sounds promising, but it went wrong on the 'mass storage' option that seems to be disabled since JB. I tried serveral solutions to this (https://play.google.com/store/search?q=mass+storage+). Also I tried an xda-dev thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2023444 None of these solutions worked. Another try: http://blog.droidzone.in/2013/01/10/using-usb-mass-storage-mode-on-galaxy-note-2/ but this tut uses SManager (Script manager) which isn't compatible with my device.
I'm stuck at this point, so I hope for some kind soul at XDA to help me out (if it's even possible).
All help is greatly appreciated!

All pictures from SD card gone..

Hi guys,
Big problem here.. My sister had a problem with her phone, and
she ask me to put custom rom on it. The phone is Samasung Galaxy S3 mini.
So I told her to move here pictures to external hard disk, and she did.
I preinstalled the phone and formated the SD card to be clean.
Few days after this she called me with panic in her voice and said
that some folders that she moved from the SD card to the external drive
are empty. And When she copied the pictures she got no error message.
Just did not checked them for sure, and now very important pics are gone.
Is there any way to recover this pictures guys?
Any ideas will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Recuva is Best Sotware. I have also recovered images by Recuva.

Stellar Data Recovery
Stellar Data Recovery is the best software when i need recovery operation.

Don't use the phone! Just plug out the external SD out and put it into a computer. Next download Recuva and use it's deep scan feature to scan for deleted files. This may take a while (up to 5 hours) but it's the best possible solution.
Note that not all files can be restored.

I can't write on SD

I'm using a Samsung 64GB SD. I can write from "My Files", Camera, File Ex, Root Explorer,...
But there are another apps that need to write and they can´t. For example, I use FolderSync to have the same files on tablet, PC and smartphone. Software can read and upload, but it can't writr when download any kind of file. And I have the same problem with other apps that need to write, work fine on internal memory, fail on external memory.
I have formated SD from S8+. I disabled Developer Options.
Can anybody help me?
Best regards
