Help moving stuff to SD card

I usually recommend trying Recuva first, as that is free.

I had a card failure that Recuva couldn't fix last year (newish Samsung card, MBR corruption) and managed to recover data using Easus. This was a card that wasn't recognised at all in some devices, couldn't swear to what the PC made of it at this remove. I'd recommend trying a trial version of any paid utility to see whether it can get anything at all from the card.
 
Well fake SD card and genuine phone apparently don't make happy couple.

Fake SD card and fake phone don't usually make for a happy couple either....

  1. Micro SD cards I've purchased have all come with SD adapters. My reader has slots for SD and Micro SD (plus CF, etc.) and I've tried it both ways. The reader worked fine with a standdard SD--and did work with the Micro SD until a few days ago.
  2. LG says the G4 will support 2TB Micro SDs (but also lists lower limits eomtimes). I've read that this means simply that the G4 supports the latest type of card, and t hat other phones cou ld make the same claim but don't because the cars aren't available yet.
  3. Any suggestions on low-level recovery software I can try? And how can it work if the reader does not detect the card?
Not sure where you are getting your info but your phone maxes out at 256GB http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g4-6901.php
 
And that's a full-sized SD, which modern phones don't use of course. I'm sure it's all a question of physical chip-size, that a 1TB flash-memory chip is currently too large to fit in a micro-SD, and 256MB is the current production maximum for micro-SD.
You mean 256gb.
