Hello..
i just bought a new SD memory card with the size of 256M.B
i want to know does the SD card Format or Hard reset happen to it like the I-mate?
and what make it happens?
You can stop the auto format experience by locking the card.
Dear Tech Support Team,
After the installation of the new version of Android (4.0.3) everything worked fine. On the Storage Device Information I found that the system does not use the SD card for write purposes but only for read. The system demands the SD card to be encrypted. When I tried to encrypt the SD card, the android asked for a "pin" and after that the SD card got encrypted. But all the data of the SD card disappeared. On the system info I see 7.40GB free space on SD card from 7.40GB maximum!!!
Please can you help me to recover my data or to unencrypt the SD card??? Do you know what went wrong with the encryption? The user guide describes that the SD card data must exist after the encryption.
I Have the HTC Sensation Z710e, HTC Sense 3.6, Software number 3.32.401.5, kernel 3.0.16-gda3fdfc, baseband version 11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M)
Thank you for your help ))
Try reboot and factory reset. I used this feature once (maybe a month ago) but the process did not produce this error.
Sorry but I don't understand. If I reboot the phone and then a "factory reset" then I will loose all my phone data not only the data in the sd card.
Is this correct ???
As far as I know the encrypted function a the tools to make only the devices can read the data. Before the encrytion process does you mean "
the system does not use the SD card for write purposes but only for read"

are you can store any file on the card. If so either the card has special function or your MicroSD card has been broken or need to be reformatted. Try reformat the card with pc an see if it work again.
Hello! About a month ago I encrypted my SD card on my S7. Since that time I forgot the code that I used to encrypt SD card. My question is: When you encrypt SD card you "have" to use the same code/pin as for locking the phone/screen or is possible to use a different code/pin when encrypting SD card.
Thanks for the help.

Found already... is always same code/pin. Same code/pin as for lock screen/phone as for the SD card encryption. There is no option to use two different codes.
I have this SD card that was used as adopted storage on a now broken phone. To make a long story short, it was inadvertently formatted. I was able to get the encryption key. Any ideas on how to recover the encrypted data? The solutions I've seen assume the card was not formatted and/or an intact partition table.
Hello,
a friend of mine factory resetted the phone (Samsung J6) then he found his SD Card is encrypted and he lost all his data.
Is there a way to recover that data?
I read that he could:
- Backup SD data on pc
- Format the SD card using the phone
- Encrypt the sd card using same password
- Copy encrypted data from pc to SD Card
- Decrypt the sd card
Is this a working solution?
And... is it safer to use a new SD Card instead of formatting the encrypted SD Card?
