I tried upgrading my phone's SD card from a 32gb to a 256gb. My old 32gb card had several folders containing mostly old pix that I wanted to keep ... For some unknown reason, it didn't do right... Evidently I did something wrong, but I don't know what... If you can, please enlighten me. I'm a seasoned PC user, but a noob on cell phones...
What I did:
I removed the old 32gb card from the phone. Using an SD adapter, I put the SD card into my Transcend SD card reader then plugged the reader into one of my Ubuntu PC's USB ports. I went to my PC's file manager where I seen that it recognized the SD card. I went to it and selected all the folders (using CTRL + A). Then pressed CTRL + X (cut)...
Then I removed the old 32gb card from the reader & inserted the new (never been used) 256gb card into the reader. I went into the new card & noticed several empty folders. I was puzzled, but dismissed them. I then pressed CTRL + V (paste). I was then presented with a notification window telling me that the folder already existed. I expected this, so I just opted to replace all folders & files. Is this were I screwed up???
What happened:
I installed the 256 gb micro-SD card into my phone. Only some of the pix are there.
The rest of the pix are only thumbnails. These thumbnails seem all correct, but when I select the thumbnail, the actual pic is not there, only a blank gray square shows up.
