Is it an android with a removable memory chip? In which case take it out and reformat it. You will need a card reader with a USB hook up for your computer. Or if it is an iphone go to the app store and find a file to download that is much larger than the memory capacity of the phone. The phone will erase everything non vital trying to down load the file. This is what the apple store does to wipe all the search history files off the phones.

SOURCE: pushed the Format button on my L100 Samsung Digital camera and my memory card was erased??? Please explain this?

formatting the memory card automatically erases all the files in the memory card.
it's like restoring the memory card to factory settings to be compatible with your camera.

when you format the memory card using the camera the camera erases everything then creates folders that the camera needs to store pictures in your memory card.

you can try to look for software that can TRY to retrieve the images but i cannot assure you that this will work

SOURCE: My 512 MB Micro SD memory card is locked

Recently I wrote an article to recover deleted SMS from mobile phones . Here is another related one ,which deals with memory card password . We can use the same software that we used in the above case to recover memory card password from mobile phones .



Method 1 : Recover memory card password , using Fexplorer.

As I said, we need Fexplorer for this mobile hack .After installation , Browse to c:\system folder in your mobile phone . Here you would find a file mmcstore .This file is actually used to store memory card passwords in a mobile phone . Rename this file to mmcstore.txt and open with notepad . Now you will see the memory card password as it is ,exactly .

Method 2 :Unlock memory card passwords of Nokia Nseries and Eseries phones


The first hack to recover the password of memory cards will not work on Nokia Nseries and Nokia Eseries devices . Here we will use the remote lock feature for re-setting the password . For this , go to your pones settings >Security >Phone and SIM> and then allow Remote lock . The password of your remote lock will be the password of your memory card .So if you want to change the memory card password , just send an SMS containing your remote lock message .

SOURCE: My phone can't read the memory card.it gives me

If the memory card worked before with your phone, then suddenly became unrecognized, then the memory card probably got corrupted.

The best thing that you may try is to insert the card to another phone and connect it to a different computer. There are times that another computer recognizes the card with this kind of problem.

If a different computer recognizes your card, immediately back-up the files, then reformat your memory card. However, if the same problem occur on different computer, then there's nothing that we could do but to reformat it.

Whether you reformat it or not, you could no longer recover the files if it's still unrecognized.

Thank you and good luck!

I have nokia n73. there is a problem in its use. whenever i use it , it gives the message of memory full and asks me to delete some data. please tell me some solution.

The phone's internal memory and memory card may be running out of space. Try to delete unnecessary files and free some memory space. Go to Menu>Tools>File Manager. Select the folder or file you want to delete and scroll left or right to switch from the phone's internal memory to the memory card.

Format the memory card and the phone's internal memory if the problem is not resolved above. But it will erase all saved data on both memory.

Memory Card Formatting Procedure
  1. Go to MENU > TOOLS > MEMORY.
  2. On the memory card menu press OPTIONS.
  3. Scroll to Format memory card.
  4. Press Select.
  5. Select Yes
  6. Once the formatting is complete, remove the memory card.

Memory Card is not accessible in my N-72 mobile phone.

take the memory card out of the phone and then try all of the options to reset to factory defaults etc and if it is related to the memory card it will just give you an error message of some description to state that it cant erase the memory card because you do not have one

Will formatting my memory card erase all my data on it?

hi thanks for using fixya!!

I suggest that if you want to format your memory card (external memory card) just use the card adapter and insert it to your pc or laptop then just open your My Computer, select the removable disk (make sure it is your memory card) then right click on it, then select format.

If you need further assistance, let me know.

Please rate my solution positively! thanks!

Music isn't transferring onto my memory card,please advise

When buying a memory card the first mistake I made was putting my files onto the memory card first. Try putting your memory card into your phone and go to Format Memory Card, this will erase all the files on the memory card but it will make it so your phone can read the files

I hope this will fix your problem T. Shanks

Things i dont know in using motorola v3i

for erasing messages you should click the button that is in the middle, at the top of all buttons of the phone.. then you will see the options you can select, between them, there is "erase", you can choose to erase them all, or just the message you were reading..
don't know is themes can be dowloaded.
for the pictures it is quite the same, if you go to options, using the same button, then you can choose something like "use different memory device" and if you choose that, you can choose between the intern memory of the phone and the memory card you are using..
I hope this was a bit helpful.. Can you rate this solution please??
