@Adele1277 If it’s corrupt still after trying to reformat it there’s nothing you can do. You’ll need a new one. SD cards are never going to last forever.

Thank you for replying. I have had a new SD card but that does the same.

@Adele1277 can you try the SD card in a different phone ?

Yes, I can do. What would I need to do to it?

Just pop it into another phone that has an SD slot, @Adele1277.

This will let us know whether there could be a problem with your phone reading SD cards.
