Comment on How to replace sd card mounted as internal storage extension?
gelberhut@lemdro.id 1 year agoYou listed many good points and hints - thank you!
But still: I have a phone with an SD card formatted as “internal storage extender” (without any strong reason, just as a result of misinterpretation of these 2 modes) how can I correctly replace this card with another one (which will be formatted as a “removable”)?

Backup old data elsewhere and change the SD card. Start anew.
Or - backup old data elsewhere, then try to dd one sdcard to the other. I can’t say if that would wojrk.

Yes, but i do not know what files, apps or apps data is stored on the SD card. I can backup user files, like photos and downloads. But how to make sure that apps and their files will not be corrupted when I remove the SD card?

You can’t. That’s the problem with internalised SD Card.

Got you. I expected that “extender” mode is not for easy swap SD cards, but not to THAT extended.
Thank you!
