SD card only formats as portable storage - Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers

Just got my Moto Z3 yesterday. The SD card slot is important for me, but for some reason there is no option to format as adoptable storage. I've tried 3 different SD cards of different brands, all labeled SD-XC class 1.
For all of them, the only formatting option I get is portable storage.
I've tried formatting through adb, and I get this error message:
beckham:/ $ sm partition disk:179,64 private
Error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: command '16 volume partition disk:179,64 private' failed with '400 16 Command failed'
Any ideas? Do I need an XC-2 or XC-3 card to make this work?

Adoptable storage is not supported. The details are described in the Moto Z3 Play Forums

[Q] Formatting External SD Card

Has anyone ever tried to format their external SD card in their SGT?
I found an "old" 4GB microSD card which is the right size for the tab, but when I install it, I get the message that it's damaged and needs to be formatted.
Now when I format the card, I get the message to enter a security code (or pattern lock) just to be sure, before formatting.
After selecting format, nothing happens! What gives?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What are you expecting to happen? Mount it on your computer and see if its there
Anyhow, I used another device (SE Vivaz) to format the SD Card, it did in fact format it.
Then inserted the card in my SGT. It is now working, but the format card option is now grayed out. Will check with PC connection later.

SD card Blank or has unsupported filesystem.

hello every one,
today i had fased a strange prob. which i want to share with u all.
i am having google nexus 1 with cynogenmod 7 installed.
and having sandisk 8gb microsd card. and suddenly today morning it says that "SD card Blank or has unsupported filesystem." i took out my card and mount on my computer and take the entire backup of the data and format it. and incert it but still having the same prob. nothing happen, then i search on net i found on other threads that download the sd card formater and try it. i also tried the same but nothing happen, then on other thread it was mention that try to run chkdsk on computer, with /x comment.. i also done same but still prob. is same.
i am having 3 more micro sd cards of different brands and of different size i also tried them but giving same prob.
nothing happening.
i also open the terminal emulition in my phone and type the commmand mount -a but it says that /etc/fstab not exist.
tell me what i do ? even i am not able to do anything ...
Wow--that is tough to figure out and i am not good at this level of TS.
Sounds like you lost the mount point. It is in etc/fstab
Do you have a backup rom on pc that you can extract etc/fstab from or can you install that rom thru adb with no sd card--

Can you mount card thru adb--
adb shell
mount /sdcard
exit
Did you use full ersase on and size adj on when you formatted card.
Can you format and partition card outside of phone.
Also, when formatting and wiping for flashing new rom you may want to get Temasek's Format zips that include boot and system wipes.

Someone will have a better and more accurate answer soon--

[Q] Cannot back up via CWM Recovery

I think It all started when I using linux to access the sdcard of my p970 2 days ago. I tried to rejected it safely but the computer said some error so I just unplug it anyway.
After that there are some unusual thing such as missing app.
Just then I found that the phone said "The sdcard is either empty or android cannot read this type of sdcard format..."
I used a card reader to check my sdcard but it is broken, so I do a quick format to it.
After that I want to do a clockworkmod recovery backup but it failed with a message
Waiting for SD card to mount (20s)
Waiting for SD card to mount (19s)
Waiting for SD card to mount (18s)
...
Waiting for SD card to mount (1s)
Cannot found SD card marker....
then it failed.
What should I do? I want to make a clean reinstallation.
try accessing to it by an usb adapter. copy datas if possible, then format. if you can't access to it at all, it means it's dead. if memory sectors become unreadable, it's dead.
I've borrowed my brother's sdcard...it works just fine.
So I guess the sd card is broken
In addition, when I checked it on the PC, I can do quick format successfully but the full format failed every time
be sure filesystem is fat32 and well partitionned (unique partition) . quick formating is enough.
if windows is dalaying the access to the card, it probably means the card is corrupted or dying

repair SD-card after Marshmallow

Hi, everyone
I used the feature in Android Marshmallow, format SD card as internal, and I have 3 devices all the same feature available.
after a while I made a factory reset for the devices, and the SD card is not supported and can't be formatted in android device.
I tried using the diskpart in windows, and after "create partition primary" it shows "virtual disk service error the operation is not supported on a non-empty removable disk".
I tried using MiniTool Partition Wizard, but it shows bad disk and after re-inserting the SD card shown nothing was done.
disk management in windows with no use.
what I understood that the android feature make two partitions, 16MB partition and another one for the rest storage which only readable within the android device made it (encrypted some how).

Unable to format Micro SD as Internal Storage

Well , the problem I'm having is that I can't format my micro sd as internal storage. Instead, it says "Move Media". Does anyone haveing the same problem ?
Tbe X4 simply doesn't support it, because of the file based encryption. As far as I know, if anyone find a way to force disable FBE we should be able to use adoptable storage.
