hello...here's my problem:
I just purchased a 64gb sandisk sd card and it doesn't not work...
more specifically:
1) whenever i re-insert the sd card, it shows "blank sd card, need format" (ONLY if i formatted the sd using my pc before i insert it back)
2) i tried to format to exFat and FAT32 through my pc, it works..but when i insert it back, it's gonna show either "blank" or not able to read any files that i copied to it.
3) when i connect it (inserted to the phone), i cant move a large number of files, it's either gonna disconnect or some errors.
4) i notice whenever i managed to copy all my files to sd, after reboot, it's gonna show "blank sd" again.
5) i also try copying the files to the phone first and then move them later using phone's application, but when i wanna use those files, it's not usable.
6) i think sometimes it deletes all the files that i moved from phone to sd card.
Please help! any suggestion will do...ihv been looking for answers in this forum for like 3 hours.

do not use sandisk 64g, mine got file not found at random, using 32g is fine
As mentioned sandisk has gone downhill...Ive had issues with them also. That said it sounds like your card is no good. Return It if you can

If you can return it--recommend the Samsung 64gb Class 10 on Amazon
ZERO issues and pretty fast
Did you try to format it with your phone ? not PC.
Because i also have Sandisk 64GB micro sdcard i had it since Galaxy S3 and now use it with Galaxy S4 , and have zero problem with it , it works just fine. I keep it almoust always full and even encrypted it.
Hello
I own Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500 and it is rooted. I recently purchased a class 10 Sandisk Micro SD card with 64 GB capacity. I was very happy that I did but my happiness did not last long when I have come to know that 3rd party apps do not have write permission in Kitkat. After some research I was successful to make the SD card writable to 3rd party apps by modifying the permissions.xml file.
Everything seems to be fine at this time but it was not actually. The SD card when seen under storage in settings would show me that it is mounted with 62.5 GB capacity and 60 GB free. But when I try to browse the files in SD card, there are nothing. Apps saved in SD card do not open and I am also unable to capture images from camera to SD card storage.
I thought may be unmounting the SD card and mounting it back would work and it worked but after a while the same problem. My device shows that it has mounted an SD card but cannot access anything saved in it. So, I have to unmount and mount SD card every time and this is very much annoying.
Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks you for your time.

Thank you for your reply.
Yes. It is Ex FAT format. Which format should I format it to? Ex FAT or just the FAT format.
It is not about applications. The card just gets undetected after some time and nothing can be accessed including music and images. I have to unmount it and mount again for the device to detect the SD card.
Format your SD Card on your phone its self. Go to settings, storage and than SD Card and format it.

Thanks mate.. Followed your instructions... Working fine as of now.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 which I recently upgraded to the official Lollipop 5.0.1 update. I also added a new Samsung 64 GB (Class 10) Micro SD Card. When I use the Micro SD Card in a card reader in Windows 8, I can easily add / delete files without any problems. When I use the Micro SD Card in the Samsung Galaxy S4, it works fine for a while, then suddenly files and folder automatically disappear or files become corrupt; photos clicked with the camera disappear instantly. I am not sure if the problem lies with the Micro SD Card, the phone, the OS or some app.
Please could someone help!
I would suggest to format the card in your phone (if not already done). And then try it again.

Hello, Now I don't really know what's going on cause i'm going crazy with this phone, eveytime I inserted sd card it asked the partition card and internal sd card and when I chose the external ones I have no idea why it doesn't read my sd card like for example I wanna transfer my file via airdroid or wanna restore an app via Titanium backup or play an NDS game it just read only the internal storage even though it shows on ES file explore (I tried the internal ones and it format my SD card, and S did put all the files back in place but it didn't help, the es file explore in photo was before I put my files back, by the way), my phone just doesn't read my sd card, it's like it just work as a one way storage, when I was using a Sony, this doesn't happens what so ever.
Does anyone knows how to fix this problem of mine, please help me. I took some pictures to make proves :crying::crying:

In titanium backup, open the preferences menu then choose backup folder location. Choose Storage provider (click to change). Then pick DocumentProvider storage, select the SD card on the left menu then press Select at the bottom right corner
go to settings>>storage>>click on external sdcard>>top corner 3dots>>settings>> format
then move media to sdcard.
Your SD card is showing in the file manager. You've 32gb sd card right? "FD89-1CE6" is your sd card. For titanium backup you need go to TB settings and set the backup directory to SD CARD ( FD89-1CE6)

Yeah, Thank you very much, i just did it last night, kinda having trouble with the superSU at first though, I tried to patched Titanium Backup on lucky patcher and it kept saying that I need to root my device, so i had to reflash superSU again. Thank god it went through. Now I having trouble with the internal SD card, I couldn't get it my play store to install app to my sd card or to re-direct my app to read file in my Sd card, for example I installed Chaos ring 3, I had to move all the file from my sd card to internal, it's knilling my internal storage TT^TT . Does anyone have a solution for that, please let me know.... I think everybody have the same problem though, does anyone know how to fix this solution? :crying::crying:

In Android 6.0, once you format ur external sd card as internal it becomes a part of ur internal memory and functions as internal one(the external SD card won't show up in file managers). Hence the phone decides where your app is installed either the real internal memory or the now formatted SD card working as internal memory.
If you don't format it as internal memory. The apps won't install on external SD card and you can't move the apps to external SD card.

No you can't coz the data on your sd card will be encripted n you won't be able to read it on your computer via card reader. I'd suggest you to keep your sd card as "portable device" if you want to transfer data via card reader.

I'm using G600K.
Inserting SD, the message " This SD card is corrupted, and needed to format" is displayed
However, after formatting, SD card isn't been mounted.
SD card vendor is SanDisk, MITSUBISHI, and SilliconPower
Software ver is G600K10h
Is there anyone who has same problem?

I had the same problem but mine just said it's corrupted and wouldn't format because of this. I then tried the SD card in other phones and it remained corrupted. I hope the G6 is not screwing up our SD cards
I had the same problem my SD card wouldn't work

Only issue I had with mine was when I first booted the phone with it in the system didnt show any stock ringtones or notification sounds. I had to remove the card then reset the phone and insert the sd card after everything loaded. Since then no issues with a PNY card.

My Sandisk card from my G4 swapped over no problem. I deleted a bunch of junk off of it with the G6 and all is well.
