Hi, what happened is that i was copying a huge folder 2gb from pc to galaxy tab 7.7 where i realized that it hanged so i disconnected the cable ... then the tab didnt read the sd card since then ... also i tried to format from pc ... it always says windows unable to complete format ... i tried to format from a nokia " non android " phone .. it mentioned something about card encryption ... i tried to reattach to decrypt the card .. but the tab did not see it and take ages to format it then hangs ....

so ... any solution for that ??
 
what about gparted? or the hp format tool for usb drives?
 
i tried that tool .. hp format and when i press format it tells me device media write protected " through adapter " .. i tried it both ways locked and unlocked but it keep giving the same message ..
