How To Remove Encryption From Micro Sd Card
I confused and try everything that I know but FAIL ! I have 32GB sd card, I want to format it. I don't care with the data, I want to use the memory card only. I'll tell the the story first:
I wanna encrypt my sd card in my tablet android, I encrypt it in settings and encrypt external drive. I wait in some hours but when encrypting finished, pop up tell the encrypt is error. Then I decrypt it and success. I then use it but failed. I unmount and inserting again but the system tell I must decrypt again (I have try but this loop loop again).
'SD card encryption is turned off. Turn on SD card encryption by tppig Turn on below. To use the SD card, tap continue to decrypt or tap turn on to turn on SD card encryption'
- If you have forgotten the password for your micro SD card, i am afraid that you will not be able to open it unless you remember the password. Even if you try to explore it in your phone. The password will be encrypted in asterisks form to retain secrecy and security.
- I have some micro SD cards and an external hard drive that I would like to password protect and/or encrypt, but I have no idea how to go about this.
Summary: With a Motorola Droid series phone using encryption, you have to click to use the phone as a 'Media Device', not as Mass Storage, in order to decrypt files for transfer or viewing on a USB connected PC. OP has stated he is using a Droid Bionic with encryption enabled.
I have tap Continue and success decrypt but If inserting again, its look again.
