[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] sparkyslots:
Well I may have solved my problem. I completely wiped the SD Card using MiniTool Partition Wizard. However I didn't add a partition or any kind of formatting. Once the card and partition was completely wiped I put it back into the A52 5G and let it do its own partitioning and formatting of the SD Card. Everything is working really well no more SD card errors, just hope it holds. ( 12hrs and still working, before that the error would pop every 30 minutes or so.) ( Still using my original SAMSUNG: EVO Select 128GB SD Card)

I'll update the progress in a few days.

Some reason the wipe of the partition seemed to do the trick. I don't really understand why since like I said the card worked well in everything except the A52. Maybe Samsung changed the format structure compared to there previous tablets and phones. Maybe its even an issue with Android 11 . All formatting in the past was always exFAT however something changed with this phone. I hope this will help out others who may be experiencing the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] blackhawk:
It's possible there was some app on it with a secure partition or something.

It may take or do what one card* did in my S4+, while never lost data it would go through spells of not being recognized by the phone requiring a reboot. No rhythm or reason to it.

Having to low level format a new card is not a good sign.

Next card get a Lexar, slam it in, format, good to go.

* it wasn't recognized by the phone or Windows. Only the Lexar formatting app could access it. After a low level format it was visible to the phone and Windows.

Really?
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] sparkyslots:
Well I said I would let everyone know the progress. Simple terms FAIL. 👎

6:00AM this morning the error came back. ( SD Card was removed unsafely )

So I guess now I'll try the new SD card I mentioned above or the one mentioned above by Blackhawk ( Thanks for the info. )

(SanDisk 128GB Extreme MicroSDXC U3, V30, 4K, A2, Micro SD.)

(Lexar-High-Performance-128GB-microSDXC-UHS)
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] blackhawk:
Well .5 tb will be nice to have.

I hope this works...

Format in phone.

I would leave the card in the phone and up/download data via the phone rather than removing the card to do so.

Found another interesting read. Maybe Android 11 is the issue.

[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] blackhawk:
I have no love for 11 and running on Pie quit happily on my Note 10+.

Can't say that Lexar card is know good for your phone because it uses a faster and different memory controller as well as the imfamous A-11 OS.

However before blaming the hardware or firmware I would give the Lexar a shot. It's a nice card to have regardless.
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] sparkyslots:
Well I picked up the sd card member Blackhawk was talking about this morning. A Lexar High-Performance 633x 512GB MicroSDXC UHS-I Card. I put the card in fresh out of the package let the A52 format the card about 4 hours later same as before, the fault came back. After reading the post the Blackhawk wrote about his pie made me think I'll try that. Fired up my pie4 and let the pie4 do the format. Well no luck there either within 30 minutes the fault came back. Well now I know its either the A52 or its Android 11. The cards both work really well in all may other devices. However the A52 5G is the only thing running Android 11. Now the question is return the phone or wait for Android 12. :unsure:
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] blackhawk:
Sorry to hear that. I meant that Pie as in Android 9. Try the Lexar low level formatting utility if you can find it. Again, format in phone before you use it to be on the safe side.

It seems it's the phone.

Try clearing the system cache.

Doubt check setting and clear data in associated apks. It still may be something not so obviously obvious... Androids wuv being played with.
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] sparkyslots:
Well I finally got the respond for Samsung I was looking for. It's not the SD card but an issue with there firmware. They claim it will be addressed with the next update. I used the Samsung Members App to send them an error report from my device and the response was quite pleasing.

( See there response)
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] blackhawk:
Congratulations, you're a remote Samsung beta tester!🤣

Just sloppy and unprofessional on Samsung's part and no fix... yet.

Eventually they'll get it but it should have never made it out for retail sale like that🧐

Personally I'd consider asking for a full refund as without a working SD card slot the phone becomes a liability for me... as if this little ride hasn't already. That used 10+ is looking more tempting to me.

Wow. Well done👍
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] shamaike:
Hi another issue with SD. When I have tried to make a backup on the an SD card via the setting app it stuck after 85% and the result of it I got an SD with "write protection" which I can't change not via DOS not with other 3rd party tools. by the way its working on Samsung tablet including format and copy files but when I put is back to my mobile or try to check it on PC to delete the portion or make any change it still same issue "write protection". Would appreciate any idea before I put it to garbage. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy A52 5G] blackhawk:
Do Not trust critical data to backup apps as they can fail unpredictably and miserably.

Backup manually with direct file transfers and verify the backup files are intact and restorable.

Always backup the SD card to at least 2 hhds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other. Best to stagger hdd backups to guard against unknown malware that may be present. The more backup hdds, the better.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
Not a problem, I will look into it, one thing that would help a lot is if you could either send me your HTCHomeSettings.xml file, or just copy and paste the values that it has in the Launcher widget node...

Currently M2DC checks to see what the value for IDLAUNCHERWG_COLUMN is, but when writing the file, it needs to know the value for IDLAUNCHERWG_START_POINT as well... I implemented the 3 and 4 column behavior off of a single example, I don't see why I shouldn't be able to add more rows/columns if I can juts see the settings for the LauncherWidget node.

great job on the customizing app!! one thing i noticed though is if i try to manually copy files over what ive already selected as my theme, it wont apply those changes. even though it shows the items being overwritten. as well, i noticed that my device memory kept getting lower when trying to manually overwrite files. meaning it was storing them somewhere else. i know we have the zipped theme files, but it didnt add up to the amount of storage memory i was losing. hope this makes sense, but thought you might want to check it out or at least see if anyone noticed the same thing. thanks again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 1999TL:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
Hmmm... I am a little bit confused at what you are trying to describe here. When you enable theme support M2DC will tell Manilla 2D to no longer look for theme files in \Windows (or wherever you had them before), it tells Manilla @d to look for theme files in the \Program Files\M2DC\ActiveTHeme directory. So that is where you should be manually copying files to... as far as the memory, I am not fully sure I understand what you are saying, please let me know where you were copying files to/from and I can make a educated guess as to what was happening there

sounds like you understood what i was describing and i told you i hoped I made sense:) but, with your explanation above i think i was right on. i was manually copying files still into windows for small changes, it wouldnt change anything. from what you've explained, i should copy them to the above mentioned directory. so, all in all that would explain the memory loss i suppose. anyways, dont worry about it. uninstalled and just put a theme in and it was fine. thats all that really matters and mods can delete these posts to keep it clean if they see fit:)

UPDATE Sep-30-2008 11:00 CDT

v0.7.104

* oops, the theme management support for 0.6.97 was not future proof, so when updating to

this version your default theme will be applied. Your themes will still exist, you

will just have to re apply them

* added support for *.zip theme files... the cath is that the zip file must contain a

HTCHomeSettings.xml file in it

* added support for multiple instances of the same named node, thanks to ababrekar from

xda-developers forexample

* added support for 3, 4, or 5 columsn, and 3, 6, or 9 rows in the launcher, thanks to

kidnamedAlbert from xda-developers for example

* attempt at more robust theme support, now reads and uses all values from

Imageslist, TabWidget, and HomeWidget in hte theme HTCHomeSettings.xml file,

I still see some bugs though (digital clock showing up in weird places, maybe due to

the skin developer removing the actual file rather than commenting out the xml

element or just giving the xml element an invalid name)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pdgpereira:
mpenguin14

I like where you are going with this. I'll take your latest for a test drive now.

P.S.: Don't know how far you want to take this program but people are designing clocks, weather and other stuff without a theme per say. Are you going to keep themes tab as a single manager or will you consider managing multiple M2D aspects separately (like HHC with the icon, weather, theme...)

Another thing: some one mentioned changing clock height (for example) and change other values from your program (weather icon position...). Is that going to be possible?

Last thing: I´ve been away for a wile. I don't know how theme creators have responded to your theme management in terms of creating a ZIPs with the necessary files, since ive seen some themes as CABs. Is there already a database of compliant themes? Maybe a link section within the program with direct download capacity would be nice and easy (preview would be a killer).

1) Images on the Launcher widget

2) Images on the Photo widget

3) Background image on the home tab (only), other tabs' backgrounds are updated. (I have "use default wallpaper setting" for wallpaper)

As my default theme was a back manila from Touch-IT m2d BETA v3.5, is it possible that blue galaxy had more textures than the default and theme manager does not have this into account?
