Hey guys,
have a very important question for me. Today I decided to test the adoptable storage and formatted the SD card as internal storage :crying:. After transferring the data to it, all the data was available, but when I decided to migrate it back to the phone's memory, I cannot read any files, although it's nominal size and EXIF data were kept. Help! I am asking for help, I would like to get the photos back. Please, it's very important to me

Noob here and I believe I might have created a partition on my internal storage and not the sd card
I;ve restored to factory default and my settings show 5gb of available storage but I thought there was 8? I plug in my nc to my pc and I see two drives - nc one and the other is blank.
How can i get the extra 3gb back or is 5gb correct?
thanks
So I bricked my phone and ended up having to FXZ to the OTA JB update. Once I did I found that the internal memory just isnt there. There is still 4GB for the apps but no storage and backup will not work because it can not find internal storage. It also will not show up on my computer like normal. How do I get it to show back up?
thecodydavis was able to format his internal storage, after so many reboots, the phone ask him to reformat the storage space. And I believe reformat it will lose all the data in the storage, but you will have internal storage back.

I have the same problem except I need to recover the data. I am still trying to make an image of /dev/block/mmcblk1p26 (storage memory block) and hopefully data recovery tool works on the image.
Thanks! Pretty much what happened! Problem solved!
Hi all,
I'm having lenovo k3 note with marshmallow update.
It features to convert external memory card to internal & I did so. I used migrate option in settings-->storage. But it copied lot of data to device storage, hence it end up in low memory space & I can't use my mobile. So I formatted mobile. But now it asks me to format my memory card, which is having lot of important datas. Even this memory card is not recognizing in laptop. It only allows to format to portable or internal storage in my mobile.Please suggest me to recover my datas. Thanks in advance!!!
I'm using lenovo A7000 and recently updated marshmallow and chosen 32GB SD card as internal memory. It was worked as internal memory perfectly quite some time, all of sudden I got message that SD corrupted and doesn't show data stored in the card, it shows zero files, I lost all media files!! However USB storage option in settings SD card shows 6.5GB used out of 28GB. Since it's treated as internal memory I'm not able to read the card as drive in other devices/computer. I have important media files and documents in SD card and I didn't backup them. I'm bit worried!!! How to recover the data from SD card. I assume if SD card changed back to portable, it will format and lose data!!! Please support

Phone is not recognizing SD card, shows it's corrupted. Phone doesn't have enough space!! Btw, how to migrate data from encrypted SD card to internal memory?
Follow your way through this article: https://nelenkov.blogspot.ro/2015/06/decrypting-android-m-adopted-storage.html
You should be able to read the SD card on a Linux PC.
Same problem
i also encounter this problem now with the same unit of phone and still i'm looking for the solution on how to fix the concern. can anyone help me how to fix the problem.
Hi guys,
I have hard-reset my Moto G 2nd Gen after some confusion. I have taken the SD card out of the phone before resetting it. Now after hard-reset, when I insert my SD card into the phone, it says "Unsupported SanDisk SD card" and ask me to format it to use either as a portable storage or as internal storage.
This card has some important data of mine, e.g. Photos, whatsapp backup and few other backups. How can I solve this problem? I want to use this card as is in phone. Can I take backup of it's data if it's required to format this card?
I know I have asked too many questions, I hope you can understand my situation here. :crying:
If your SD card was formatted as internal storage it's almost impossible to get the information back since when you format an SD card as internal storage it gets encrypted and the key is stored in the device, so when you hard reseted your phone the key was lost, that's why it can't be identified.

as you said "almost impossible", is there any way to get the info back? Moreover, if I had left the card in the phone, would it have changed the encryption of sd card?
It most probably would've been the same if you had left the card in the phone. By the way you may want to take a look a this "Decrypting Android M adopted storage"

Thank you for sharing this page. This is a very good article, but it talks about having the key from device, which I certainly don't have. So, it seems I can't use this method to recover my data.
I, however, used some data recovery software on this card, which would show some data, but not all. Can you suggest me some good software to recover data from this card?

Hello. Did you ever figure out how to get the data off your SD card? I am in the same boat. I thought I was safe having everything backed up on there, but, nope...
Thank you
