Hey Nikolay Iliev,

 

What SD Card do you have? How do you use it? What message does your system give you when you operate with it?

In most cases, external storage drives get corrupted data if they are not ejected properly. I would recommend using the safe removal tool every time you do so because the OS writes on a small portion of the card that it was ejected safely an no data was lost. If you don't do so, the car would most likely appear corrupted the next time you plug it in.

Adata. Mostly for media content(music, pics and vids). The system doesn't give me any messages. When I plug it my PC it is fine, then I transfer the files and put it in phone. Then I see the content is corrupted.

Is it possible the problem to be damaged storage chips?

It would be useful to try the same procedure with the same files and car don a different phone to see if the problem comes from the card itself, from the files or the phone is causing the issue.

Some usual causes of such problem:

- Bad SD card (by far the most likely, especially with cheap cards).

- Bad cable or card reader (more common than you might think).

- Something wrong on your computer (many things can go wrong!).

- A bad connection inside the phone.

- Something horribly wrong with the phone's electronics.

It is probably the first one. I don't think it something wrong with the files it is only music and vids
