[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMotoDom:
I've just bought a Moto X Play ( UK ) which comes pre-installed with Lollipop from carphone warehouse, I have Samsung 64 GB SD Card Class 10 which is official SD card, been using it on my old S4 phone & computer without issue However when used on my Moto and reboot the phone I get a message saying the SD Card is damaged, and I can't access anything.

If I put the card into my computer or old S4, the card is fine and can be read no issues. i've been playing around with it and what i've noticed is that I think I can now replicate this problem at will and just wondered if any others are noticing this problem.

To replicate the problem:

1. Move an App from internal to SD Card.

2. Reboot the phone, the phone will say the "SD Card is damaged, try re-formatting it" ( don't do it! )

To resolve the corruption, I just took the SD Card out of my moto put it into either my Samsung S4 or a PC, go to the SD Card and clear down the contents of the "Android" folder sitting in the root of the card.

Put the card back into the Moto on startup, the phone is happy with the SD card!, no corruption and all files ( Music, Video, Images etc ) work without issue on the moto.

Repeat the steps again and bang the card goes corrupt again!, very annoying.

It appears to me that there is a bug in the moto SD card implementation which needs addressing as I can't put apps onto SD card and re-start my phone without this problem arising.

I've tried replicating this fault with another memory card and get the same problem

Can anyone else confirm if they are having the same problem?, if you aren't could you tell me what brand of memory card you are using, and the exact software version you are on?, when I do a software update it says I have the latest version.

My Phone Version is:

Android version: Android 5.1.1

Hardware SKU : XT1562

Build Number: LPD23.118-10

I had the same problem with a 32gb Samsung Evo SD card, yesterday I searched for a solution on the internet and found some suggestions about to format the card from Windows with "quick format" unchecked.

I gave it a try, it took 10-15 minutes to format it but I had no more problems so far!
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMotoDom:
Hi

What I did was to buy a new memory card from Curry's, won't buy an SD card off places like amazon/ebay due to the number of fakes knocking around on there.

I got a 64 GB PNY Class 10 memory card ( £17.99 ) , plugged it into the phone ,it was instantly recognised, I decided to Erase card using the Menu option before moving apps and data onto it and everything is working fine so far, have re-booted the phone several times without any problems!

I think probably re-formatting the existing Samsung memory card in the computer would probably do the trick as well. however I've got a new use for that memory card as it's going to be used in the car sat nav instead.

It's a strange issue but i'm glad it's solved.

same problem here, can´t use SD as internal becoz it freezes at 40% of formatting and later says that is damaged.

Have the same problem with 2 or 3 sd
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMotoDom:
I found this good utility for SD Cards, download it on your PC and try scanning your SD Card with this tool, perhaps there is an fault with your sd card, it's called macrorit , I can't post a link as the forum rules won't let me.

There is a free version for download, just go to google and type "macrorit download"

This tool is also good if you need to format a 64GB SDCard as FAT32 instead of exFat, something my car sat nav wants :) and Windows 10, with diskpart can't do :)
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kettleblack:
I am sure there are bugs in both the Android 5 & 6 code but when it comes to SD cards my first suspicion is the card itself. You have to understand that these things barely work and are only marketable because they have internal processing that corrects problems on the fly. Even manufacturers with the best reputations produce flakey batches of SD cards. My experience has been that cards can have invisible latent problems which manifest only when usage changes. eg: a swath is bad but never exposed until a size boundary is crossed, or a storage allocation scheme changes with a new or updated filesystem.

Micro SD cards are vulnerable to physical handling problems including excess g force or static electrical damage.

FWIW, my experience:

1. If even one device reports a problem then the card likely is not 100%. Replace it.

2. Never store valuable and irreplaceable data on it without an active and complete backup process in place.

3. Buying an expensive high capacity device? Get the extended warranty or in store replacement extension. Keep the packaging with all of the batch coding on it. Make sure the replacement is from a different batch.

Also, there are a lot of counterfeits. Buying from a big store says nothing about the true nature of the device.

Hard drives: Very good, predictable service times

SSDs: Almost as predictable.

SD cards: Very unpredictable even if not counterfeit. Easily reprogrammed by anyone with some tech savvy.

---------- Post added at 12:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

One more thing, if the SD card is 100% ok then you should be able to completely rewrite the card every day for at least a couple years.

If your card is under warranty and giving an error in even just one situation then back it up and throw a heavy "burn in" program at it. Let it run until it dies and get it replaced. Better in a burn in program than in your phone.

When you get a new card, make sure you run a tester that writes/reads the complete capacity at least a couple of times. Make sure the data is random.

Again, my opinion only.

Never think of SD cards as being reliable like the phone internal storage. They just are not. They could be but then you would be paying a lot more for them.

I bought a brand new 32GB strontium class 10 card and only managed to use it for a day before the phone kept notifying me that the card was removed and I have to restart the phone to be able to use it again. This happened multiple times before I changed the card with my other one, bought 4 years ago, a class 4 16gb sandisk. no problem whatsoever with it. Now I'm getting a replacement for the new card.

I have the same issue as Shivi10.

I previously found the same issue on a sandisk (32 GB class 10) and asked for a replacement.

Now I found same issue on a new Sandisk same size and class bought on a local shop.

I'll burn in this card on a PC and see the result. If the card passes the burn in the phone itself could be the cause for me.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acehigh1971:
I used the suggested macrorit utility to check sd card integrity.

I erased, formatted the card on a pc. Then I did several cycles of write, read with macrorit, erase. All these cycles went good. The card is clearly ok (this is the second one, the first was returned but I suspect it was good).

I decided to return back the phone. Appraisal for amazon who agreed on a money back. Excellent.

This phone is awesome, but I'm tired to go around finding bugs and losing my pictures. I'll look for something else.

Solution: "SD Card corrupt" in Motorola X-Play

I've had this problem continually for four years with my Motorola X-Play - very frustrating :( :crying:

Nothing helped. San Disk 64GB Micro-SD working fine in old phone and computer, but "corrupt"

with failed formatting in the X-Play. Tried re-formatting the card in Windows 10 - both "Quick Format"

and "Full Format". SD-Card put back in the X-Play and then always and again the message "SD Card corrupt"

with formatting in phone always failing at 20% or 30%, both for "internal storage"-Format und "Exchange

between devices"-Format.

Then came after four years the solution:

The problem is not the board in the phone or the software,

but a MECHANICAL PROBLEM in the card slot !!!

Unbelievable !!!

The solution came on You-Tube - I didn't want to believe it at first - seemed crazy.

But it worked ! Exactly as in the You-Tube video.

"FIXED Moto G5 Plus corrupt SD card problem,not compatible issue and FIX ! Work with LG G6,Xiaomi"

from obscur156 :

In YOU-Tube search for:

"FIXED Moto G5 Plus corrupt SD card problem,not compatible issue and FIX ! Work with LG G6,Xiaomi"

I really worked: putting tape layers on top of the card to make it thicker and to stabilize its position in the slot.

I cannot say how thankful I am to "obscur156" !!!

Now can hear music with the phone for the first and store hundreds of photos without

filling up the internal storage.

"obscur 156" THANK YOU ! THANK YOU ! THANK YOU !

Hi,

second try. First post didn't go through... good thing I didn't save what I typed.

I'm trying to update my firmware, I've read somewhere that a RUU is the easiest way to do so. The one I found "somewhere" doesn't go through with the update proses. It spits out error 155, bootloader is relocked hboot version is 3.16.000 and I'm S-on (not that I was able to change that).

I'm loosing my patience and I'm about to throw the phone in the trash. I've some one can point me to a RUU that work with it I'd be in your debt. The carrier is O2 Germany BTW.

Thanks for the quick response. I've started the download, but slow internet means it'll take about 45min :( I'll report back once I'm done.

I realized I haven't really said anything about my intentions, I did that the first time I wrote the post which wasn't posted because my session in the forum got kicked or something.

I wanted to update CM to CM12 and I've managed to flash a stock ROM with lollipop but wifi won't work. So my main concern was updating the firmware so that I can flash CM12. This would enable me to do so?

thanks again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Restore a stock ROM, you can't use lollipop. Wifi won't work because you have hboot 3.16.0000

You only can restore 1.54.206.10 stock ROM and its stock recovery then do all OTAs up to lollipop then only it work for wifi and other thing.

Using a RUU will remove everything on your device including internal storage (so make backup) then it will update everything including firmware to lollipop. So it is faster compare the nandroid backup method. You have less OTA to do.

Got to rest now .. already in bed .. its 4 AM here .. I'll check your progress tomorrow .. good luck

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
When you asked for RUU I expect you know all the requirements to run RUU ...

Your problem is related to PC/USB to device connection problem ...

You need to relock bootloader before you run RUU because your device is S-On

(I believe you did that as stated on post #1)

and you need a Windows PC with USB2.0 and latest HTC USB driver installed.

If you're not sure about HTC USB driver - download HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx

install then after uninstall HTC Sync Manager but leave the HTC USB driver
