  1. We have 2 A71 phones, each purchased new in September, 2020. My wife’s micro SD failed about 3 months ago and nothing is recoverable from the card at all. So, a card issue, but was it caused by the phone?

    Now… Each of us is getting a message saying: “Your SD card isn’t working correctly and has been set to read-only to prevent data loss. Backing up the data on your SD card is recommended.”

    The SD Cards are currently installed and accessible, but we’re wondering if the phone will soon crash another SD.

    Ideas?
