SD Card Unrecognized

Just received my Black Pro today. The device doesn't recognize two different SD cards that work fine in other Android devices and PCs.

I've tried formatting them on the PCs as FAT32 and exFat, formatting them in another android device as portable storage, numerous insert/remove cycles, numerous hard resets of the device and power cycles, power cycling the device with the card in vs out....

Both cards are SanDisk. One is a 128gb Sandisk Extreme Plus. And the other is an old 8GB... probably came out of an old Android phone I had.

​

I'm at a loss and kind of bummed. Any ideas?

I had an issue like this and I had to change the storage to portable and it worked.

You could try a different brand of MicroSD. I am using an 256Gb Samsung EvoPlus (2020 model).

If you look under storage, it does'nt see the MicroSD? If it does not see any microSD under there, while it is inserted correctly, and it does so with multiple MicroSD cards, i'm afraid your Odin has a faulty SD cardreader. You should try contacting AYN in this case.

In trying to figure this out, I've seen a couple people make reference to the Samsung SD cards. I just ordered a small one to give it a shot; hope it works. Thanks for the reply.
