AC Question

I have a galaxy 3 that I remove the SD card from and put it in the new s4 and the gallery is full of grey boxes with lightning bolts through in it, so I put it back into my galaxy 3 and it still like that what do?The reason, I got the new phone was because the Galaxy said that the memory was full and I could not upload pictures to facebook

Welcome to Android Central! When you removed the card initially, did you go to Settings>Storage and tap Unmount first? Removing an SD card without Unmounting first can sometimes cause data corruption. Unmount the card, insert it into your computer, and see if you can access the photos using Windows Explorer. If so, back up all of that data to the hard drive now. Then run chkdsk to see if there are any bad sectors: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...guide-using-chkdsk-fix-corrupted-sd-card.html
