Are you having trouble with your Android phone not detecting your memory card? This can be a frustrating experience, but fortunately, there are some simple steps you can take to fix the problem.
First, open your files app to see if your phone is detecting the memory card. If not, remove the SIM card tray to access the memory card. With the memory card out, go to settings, then apps, and tap on the three dots on the top right side of the screen. Select “show system apps,” then search for “my files.” Tap on “files,” then select “events” and “storage and cache.” Clear both the cache and storage.
Restart your phone by pressing the power button, then restart. Once your phone has turned back on, go to settings, then apps, and select “see all apps.” Tap on the three dots on the top right side of the screen, select “show system,” then search for “files.” Tap on “storage and cache,” and clear only the cache.
Put the memory card back into your phone, and it should show up right away. If not, try updating the app. Open “my files,” click on the three dots on the right side, then select “settings.” Scroll down to “about my files” and tap on the app to see if an update is available. If so, update the app and restart your phone.
If you follow these steps and your phone still doesn’t detect the memory card, try removing and re-inserting the memory card. This should do the trick.
Fixing a corrupted SD card on your Android phone doesn’t have to be a complicated process. By following these simple steps, you can get your phone to recognize your memory card again.
