Hi, I have an LG G3 and a 32GB MicroSD card and a few weeks ago, everything was suddenly deleted from it. I formatted the card and reset my phone and it's been fine, however it's today happened again.

Recently, I have had to keep taking it out of the phone (forgetting to unmount it each time) - could I have damaged the card or could this be an issue with the phone?

Thanks

What brand of card, and where did you buy it from? If Amazon, was it from Amazon themselves or a third party?

I am wondering if you have a counterfeit card, some of these work by looking like they have the advertised size but in fact are much smaller, and simply overwrite themselves when you've hit their real limit

I'm thinking the same as above, I'd return the card to Amazon or wherever you bought it. I had one, I saw that everything got erased, and a new folder appeared with a Greek symbol as its name... Returned, it was fake
