Hi, I have a "cant write to SD card" notification  permanent on my phone. This happened after the new 2 UI update, my 64G sd card works in other devices and was working fine before the update. Can we fix this in the next update please?

I am getting the same message plus I have over 13k pictures that I can no longer see. Has Samsung found a solution to this because I've tried all the above suggestions and nothing has worked

Obviously, there is some thing wrong with the majority of the Samsung Phones. I have the same problem on my Note 10+ withe two different SD cards, my original 128GB  and a new 256GB. Both were reformatted. 

 

A shame.

Hi, I purchased two Samsung A21s in August for myself and my wife. Sd cards (SanDisk) from the old phones used which I reformatted before inserting. Worked fine for approx a month and then got the message 'can't write to sd card message', lost access to a number of photos which was annoying. The same issue occurred with my wife's phone at the same time. I reformatted the sd cards which solved the problem for a short while then it happened again in both phones. It is clear to me that it is an operating system issue. It has put me off buying a Samsung in the future. The reformatting solution mentioned works but only for a short while.

I am on my 3rd card and all have had 90% room left.  Each of the 3 works fine on other phones.  Tried the format procedure to no avail.  This too seemed to happen to me after the last update.  Wish they could fix it.  It is annoying.
