I recently bought a 32gb sandisk micro sd card last december 14 2017 and earlier today (jan 3 2018) i noticed my phone suddenly freeze and restarted it then upon restart i can no longer access my memory card it says damaged sd card try reformartting…the prob is i cant seem to reformat it. Every time i hit format memory card on my phone nothing happens and still says damaged sd card try reformatting…i have more than 30k images on it and i want to recover it if possible…honestly i trust sandisk/WD when it comes to external storage (i have 5x wd external hdd and one of them was from 2008 and still works till now) reason why when i decided to buy a micro sd i decided it should be sandisk
What happens when you connect the card to a computer? Can it read it? Formatting the card will erase anything that has been added, so I would only do that as a last resort.
It can be read for a few secs but then says can’t access disk when i try to move my files to the pc
It says parameter is incorrect
I can view the files and compress them in the same drive…but the moment i try to delete or copy or move them the driver would disconnect and says parameter is incorrect
Hmmm, bummer. It’s not sounding promising.
Hi, Crimson875
Maybe your SD card is write-protected? Did you check it?
Or maybe, there are troubles with drivers…
