My storage card had an identity crisis after I took it out of my Tilt temporarily and plugged it into a card reader. It went from officially being known as "Storage Card" to "Storage Card 2" when I plugged it back in the device.
Because of this, when I go to play my MP3s using windows media player it displays an error message that says the file cannot be found. I even tried transferring them out to my desktop and they play just fine on there.
Could this be a problem with DRM since some of them are protected files?
Anyone have any idea? I'm dying here. Please, I need my music back!
Thx.
Try pressing reset, failing which, remove the memory card, reset the phone, then reinsert the memory card, if you have applications which load from the memory card, you will have to hit reset again after.
Please note I mean soft reset, not hard reset.
Thanks, if the issue is that some files are written to Storage Card 2, is there any easy way to convert them back to the original storage card path manually?
New files on the device work fine but not the original ones which may have been saved to the card when it was under the different name. Thanks.
I had that happen too, but I noticed it immediately.
Just had to delete the "Storage Card", which was (for me) an empty directory, then soft reset. Then plugged in the SD card.
Happens to me all the time. As khaytsus said just remove the card, delete the "Storage Card" folder, then reinsert the microSD card. There is no need to soft reset in most cases.
Hello, I have a recurrent problem with my storage card. It looks like empty, programs installed in the SC stop working, etc, but if I check the usage of the storage card it show as 2gb used ! (it is a 8GBs one)
It happened 2 times, and it is so anoying. I explore the card and only see the folder with the email attachments, all the other is gone.
Can it be a problema because sync from 2 different computers ? (wokr and home) ? but it do not sync the storage card, (I think)
Some Ideas ? I see nothing about a "storage card 2" or so, and I never remove the card from the device, it is always in.
can't found a real solution in the web
thank you if somebody can provide me a litthe light
My TILT won't read my microSD card, and when I put my microSD card into my computer it reads everything fine... and the phone does recognize microSD card being there because it does say "SLOT : in use"... WHAT DO I DO?
I looked everywhere to look for a solution to fix this (googled and did search on this website)
I love my phone a lot and I do not want to pay hundreds of dollars to get another WinMo phone.
I did soft reset, I did hard reset and I have flashed different roms to fix the problem.
And I called AT&T, they do not have any refurbished TILT available for them to send me one and since I don't have insurance, I can't get a phone like fuze or anything for cheap...
Help me, I want to use this phone for longer...
this problem is giving me a BIG HEADACHE.
Anyone want to help me?
Did you search yet? This question comes up often.
Run a filesystem check on the drive, it might fix it.
how do i run filesystem check on the drive?
like take the microSD card out and put it in my computer and do something?
I don't understand. I am pretty tech-savvy and I know how to flash roms and etc.
But I can't believe it's hard to understand what filesystem check is.. HELP
My microSD card is not corrupted if thats what you mean. I almost wish that was the case.
I think reader on my phone is broken... (hardware)
because like i said on my first post, I put my microSD card to my computer and everything worked fine and I inserted the card back into the phone multiple times and I even tried to format and redo everything. AND NO LUCK.

Put it in your computer and do a filesystem check on it. Right-click on the drive or such... Can't tell you the exact steps, don't use Windows.
I am telling you there is nothing wrong with the card.... but i did do filesystem check on it regardless. it said my card is fine. so what would be the next step?
like i said, my slot is broken, is there anything i can do to fix it?
Have you tried another card in the phone? That would rule out the card discussion.
If you didn't have another MicroSD around, you could also try reformatting the card as well, making sure it's in FAT16 or FAT32, not another format.
Well...I dropped my Tilt in January, other than a few scratches, nothing seemed wrong...until I wanted to use Tom-Tom, I then realized that my tilt no longer recoginized my SD card. So after alot of card swapping, card readers and the like, I gave up. My Tilt's SD slot was still functional, when I would insert/remove the card, the screen would light up, but it could not read ANY card inserted, and when in File Explorer or Total Commander, I could not select to view the cards contents, they simply did not see the card. Fast-forward 4 months & I dropped it again & PRESTO! My tilt started recognizing my sd cards again. Funny thing is that my girlfriend suggested I drop it again & see if it would start working, but I disregarded that suggestion thinking to myself "this isn't a old TV." I still have intermintent problems with my tilt not recognizing my cards, but a moderate tap on the bottom/top of my tilt & a soft-reset usually gets things going again. I suspect loose contacts in the slot, so until I jump ship, a couple taps a week won't kill me. Hope this helps.
Got the DT2 a few weeks ago, and have been having trouble with the SD Card slot. I have a 128GB microSD SDXC card, that I took out of my Samsung S5, which was working perfectly, and put it into the DT2, and got an error of "Card damaged. Try reformatting."
I took the card out, put it into an SD card adapter, and there was all my information. Then I put it back into the S5, and the phone was able to read the card.
Just for curiosity, I backed up everything on the card to my computer, reformatted it, using the exFAT file system, and put the card back in the phone.
DT2 was then able to read the card. Took the card back out of the phone, as it does not have the USB External Storage setting anymore, and started reloading the card. I took the card out every 10GB or so (total of 103GB on the card) and right around 60GB or so, I got that same ""Card damaged. Try reformatting." error.
Same steps repeated with a brand new 128gb
I performed a full factory reset on the phone, and still had the same issue.
Contacted Motorola and got a replacement phone. Same issue. (sent the replacement back, as I had an issue with the microphone.)
I tried loading directly through the phone, not using an SD Card adapter, and that worked, but only until about 59-60gb of data, and at an extremely slow transfer rate. Did it with both cards.
Might it be the OS? I have asked around, and no one else seems to be having this problem...
Any ideas? Thanks.
You should probably post in the Droid Turbo 2 forum.

Hey, you might have better luck in the turbo 2 forums. This is the xt1254 (Verizon Droid Turbo) forum.
I have a Verizon Droid turbo 2 and am having that exact same problem. I wonder if there's an issue with such a large capacity sd card...?
Please read the previous replies to this thread, before posting. Twice before it has been stated that this question is in the wrong sub-forum.
Here's the story and info.
I got the Blu R1 HD (prime special) went down to Target and bought thier DANE 64GB CL10 MicroSD for $20. Plugged it in and formatted it as internal storage. (A cautionary not then said, "if formatted as internal memory SD card will ONLY work in this device) I chose, who cares and continued.
Worked great for a day or two ... but then it happened ... it went missing! All the apps and data was gone. A notification popped up and said, "Transcendent SD card missing. reinsert this device". I did as the all knowing phone asked but to no avail, it wouldn't recognize it.
I rebooted the phone and a massage popped up saying "system properties not responding. Wait or Quit" I've tried both options, doesn't seem to make a difference.
I tried reformatting it in the phone and it wouldn't unmount. Tried on our computers (both pc and Mac) and neither computers were allowed access to the sd card to reformat it.
I then returned the sd card thinking that it might be flawed, got another one from Target and it worked great ... for about two weeks... Then went missing.
Did everything mentioned above. Got the new one and it worked for 4 weeks, thought my problems were over ... then the SD card ran away again and is now currently missing. The phone does not recognize that there is a sd card when looking for it in a file explorer. In settings it says the sd card is corrupted.
Is my phone messed up? I'd it the brand of SD card? Is there a way to make the phone recognize the sd card?
Please help me find my missing sd card.
Same problem, SD Card is showing as corrupted. I have it installed as internal storage and have for over a month with no problems. SD is a Patriot LX 64gb. I haven't changed anything on the phone. I have not fine anything but reseat the SD. Any help is massively appreciated!
Maybe the problem is using a 64GB MicroSD Card. The phone specs say it's supports up to 32GB only.

That is incorrect it supports 64GB SD, many report success with 128GB cards, so I doubt its an issue with size...

Is good to know I'm not the only one!
Have you been able to reformat the sd card? Or will it not allow you to do so?

Okay I caved and tried to reformat it, and all it does is fail, or drops off half-way as though I had removed the card. If I try to put the card in my computer or any other device it just straight doesn't exist, doesn't even say it isn't compatible or anything, just straight doesn't exist. Think the card is just bad, gonna return it and get a new one, will see what happens.
I have had a SANDISK Micro SDXC UHS-1 64GB CARD in mine for almost 5 months now and no issues.
I see I'm not the only one with this issue, although mine is a little different... I got a generic 128gb card and plugged it in, has been issue free for months... BUT, lately and for what seems like no apparent reason, the card guess missing... Rebooting the phone sees the card again with all apps and photos intact. It could be weeks/days/hours/minutes before it happens again... Shortest turn around - about 10 minutes. Longest - about 2 weeks... Haven't tried plugging the card directly into my computer yet, but when it is mounted on the phone it works fine (until it goes missing). Thought maybe it was because it was a cheap card...
Greetings!
I purchased a new SD card from SanDisk with 400GB.(didn't use my old one on this phone because of low storage size)
My problem is that i'm unable to copy/move/delete files to my SD card.
I can't even create a new folder.
I tried several explorers and activated the permissions for writing but no success.
I was also trying another SD card but the same problem.
If I format the card over my phone as internal storage the phone freezes, formatting as external storage is working though.
I also formatted the card on my PC but still the same issue.
Remounting the card in the settings sometimes works for a few seconds.(creating a folder,etc..)
My razer phone 2 has the newest FW with Android 9.

Heya buddy,
Just a quick enquiry, from where did you purchase your MICROSD? it sounds like you may have a fake card, the memory size is worrying indication, normally cards are sold in denominations of 32, 64, 128, 512,GB not 400 GB. Have you run a check to see if it's reporting the correct capacity size on a SD card checker. Sounds like it's a fake and when it tries to format, it goes into a loop state and crashes as the card is formatted over and over and over trying to reach the stated size but never reaches it due to it not being 400gb in size.
Sorry to spread the bad news, have had the same happen to me, I am so dam careful over which company I buy my cards from.
Let me know if I can help.
Yours
CLG

Phone says it has 393GB.
I bought it on amazon. Its a SanDisk Ultra 400GB that also appears on the official homepage. I'm pretty sure its not a fake.

Ok, that clears up the possibility of it being fake good good..
..hmmmmm. Do you have any old phones at your disposal that have a card slot? If so,. Try it in those and see if you can access it and read/write/modify files on it. Maybe format it with another device and then stick it in the razer and see if it works.
I'm sure now that cards a real deal as Amazon don't seem to allow frauds to be sold the only other thing I can think of is that it's a faulty card, it happens, they are just mass produced. Maybe a replacement if it's dudd.
I am having an SD card issue as well. I have had my Razer Phone 2 since last Monday brand new from Ebay. I purchased a Samsung 128GB class 10 (u3) SD card for it from Amazon. If I format the SD card as "internal", it shows that there is 131GB's of system files on my SD card. It shows I'm using 131GB's of storage from a total of 320GB's. The Razer Phone 2 has 64GB;s plus my 128GB SD card which would be 192GB;s total. I have tried many file manager apps, move to SD apps, etc and I cannot transfer any files. When I format the 128GB SD card as "portable", it shows the correct amount of storage space in both the phone and the card but once again I cannot transfer any files to the card. I have tried a 16GB SD card as well. The phone did recognize it and read the available storage on the phone and the card correctly. I did not format that card as I have music, photos and documents on it. I did try to transfer an app from my phone to the 16GB card and once again I could not do that. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance and take care.
I have had similar problems with my Razer2. It ruined a 512g scandisk brand microsd card. Copying, or moving files, is a real problem for this device! It hangs up sometimes and ruins the files. Never had these issues, this bad, with any other phone
I have a bunch of music on my SD card, my music app sees some of them. If I move the whole folder to my phone storage, music app sees all. If I boot to twrp (per arters kernel) and try to backup to external SD card, it fails. If I save it to the phone, works fine. It's like it doesn't constantly see the SD card slot properly.
Exfat is needed with art kernel. Stock formats as vfat a old file system. I have a 400gb exfat formatted and works perfectly
I'll have to look into getting that kernal
