How to I fix my sdcard problem?

[SkrubLord]

I opened my phone and found this notification "Damaged SD card" so I plugged my SD card into a reader and opened the computer and the card was fine I am not sure what caused this and I'm sorry if there is an answered thread already.

Welcome.

I'm sure that the question has been asked before but I don't know that we have an ongoing thread about it, so don't worry. Can you try another SD card in the phone, to make sure it's not a phone problem rather than a card one?

Welcome to Android Central! The SD card could be corrupt, defective, or counterfeit. Install SD Insight to see if the card is genuine or counterfeit. Counterfeit cards are programmed to report more storage than they actually have, and if you try saving more than the card can actually hold, then files can start getting corrupt.


If it's a valid card, then go to Settings>Storage, Unmount the card, remove it, and insert it into your computer. Can the computer read these files? Backup as much as you can right now, then run chkdsk to look for bad sectors: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...guide-using-chkdsk-fix-corrupted-sd-card.html.
