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?

I've tried opening my SD card on my pc using USB, and a card reader but it says it needs to be formatted D:
Is there any way to recover my files without formatting?
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"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.
i encrypted my sd card and then i removed sd card after that inserted another sd card and then i decrypted the encryption policy ......... now i inserted the card which is already encrypted and now im unable to see images and songs .............
what should i do now ??? :crying:
Hi. I'm using my SD Card formatted as internal storage and yesterday my phone stop detect it I try to romove and put again, restart phone and it's not work. I have important data on this card, so anyone knows how can I extract them? External reader or something? Please help.
On windows, use EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard
It'll work when I formatted card as a internal storage (when you insert a SD card for the first time on a Marshmallow device, you can choose to either use the card as Portable Storage or Internal Storage)? That's main problem... And if yes, how can connect this card to PC when my phone didn't recognize the card?
Hello,
I unexpectedly had to do a factory reset on my S7 while the SD card was encrypted, as result the SD was not obviously readable afterward.
I saved part of the encrypted content of the SD card (basically the pictures) before formatting it and starting using it again, however I'm not able to recover this content.
I tried with the procedure I found on internet:
- saving the encrypted data
- format the SD card
- encrypt of it
- copy of the saved content back to the SD
- decrypt
However, at the decrypt state the phone don't move from an 'Analyzing SD card' phase.
Any idea? I'm afraid I should have saved all the content of the SD card...
Thank you
