Title: Question from Sjomp about sd on android
Post by: Sjomp on March 13, 2014, 22:51
I got a question for the smart android peoples here :P
I got a android tablet but when i put my sd card into it, it doesn't work right.
It shows me it has 64gb and all maps and files that are on it but i can't open or save anything on it.
I tried the sd card in a Phone and it worked correct, only not in my tablet.
I also tried formatting it, but nothing worked :(
I also tried the sd card into another tablet with same android 4.2 and it also didn't work.

Who can help me? or is it a lost case for me? :P

Im not an expert but since u said that it works fine on the phone then the tablet probably isnt supporting that type of sd cards. Try to figure out what kind of sd card u have and if the tablet is supporting it.

If u have the possibility also try to use some other sd card, try and see if it will work.

This. The tablet might not support SD cards that are 64GBs

Also google your SD/microSD or whatever type of SD card it is along with your Tablets brand and model see if there is any conflicts

It can also be something simple. Some sd cards have a switch on them... to make the cards read only. Maybe move the switch so you can write again?

Unix permissions... They are bitchy.
Either you have no permissions to edit it in the tablet (not root/owner)
OR
The SD card is in read only mode because you can read it and not write.. As Tenac said above theres a "Lock and Unlock" slider in the larger SD cards (not microSD) make sure its in the unlock position if it has such switch.
What file system format is it formatted to? fat32 should work atleast. (Mine didnt like NTFS, so I formatted it to fat32)

And? It's a micro SD from 64GB.

It's probably the tablet not liking the SD card, you could try another brand SD if you have one, not sure what else you could do since the things I said in shoutbox didn't work too

plug your sd into the pc, get your stuff into a folder in the desktop and format with NTFS and try it

Try what he said.
And I have a huawei phone that also don't wanna put stuff onto my SD card. It detects it but don't wanna put something on it. I always have to put it manually on, see somewhere in your settings if you can move your apps on MicroSD

Ok I think I broke it now because only my old nokia Phone detects it and it says it can't format it.
But my pc doesn't detect it anymore so i can't do anything on it now xD
