I have fixed a corrupted SD card in the pass doing it this way.

This was on windows 10.

Download latest SD card formatter 5.0.1

Open command prompt with admin privileges.

Type diskpart

The type list disk

Then type select disk * (replacing * with the number of your SD card)

Then type clean

Wait a few seconds until it's finished

Type exit

Type exit again to exit command prompt.

Now safely remove you SD card.

Re insert the SD card and open SD formatter.

Select overwrite erase and let it do its thing.

It should be good now.

I spent ages trying to fix a corrupted SD card and this was the only method that worked.

Hope it works for you too

Called my brother at home this morning and had him try this and same issue format failed. See pic attached that he sent me. I guess I'll deal with this when I get back. I also had him send me the debug log, not sure if it'll say anything, but here it is

Thanks guys, I will check all these out, most I had already done but I will try the sequence that Rob mentioned and report back. I'm away for a few days but will give it a go when I get back. Keep the suggestions coming just in case, LOL

I will also see what Sandisk tells be for the heck of it.

I'll check it out

Yes I've tried that SD Card Format app

I've had this issue before. I am able to get LE back up and running on my RPI 2 using a new SD card, I was also able to transfer my files over using the file manager once I setup the new card.

The issue I'm having and it's driving me crazy, and not that I need the old SD card, but I'm determined to get it back working, LOL, I've tried everything to format the corrupted SD card, but no luck, I've done a check disk and no issues were found. I've tried numerous programs to format the card and failed every time, I've even tried in the Windows command prompt and no luck. Anyone have any other suggestions. Like I said it's simply a challenge now, LOL It is a Sandisk 8GB Micro SD card,

I've used the below apps

SD Card format

Windows format

Ease US

All above to no luck

I'll take any suggestion, Also I can delete the files from the SD card from one partition, but once I close out and check again files are back there. I don't need to save anything on the card simply want to format it. I even tried putting it in my camera and format from there and no such luck.

Thanks I'll check this out when I'm back in town.

Installed, still trying to figure out how to use it to login with username and password. Yes Xfinity uses a portal for username and password.

I've searched for this but could not find a concrete answer. I'd like to be able to connect my RPI 2 with LE to my XfinityWiFi, but it requires to sign in with account name and password, but the LE does not give that info to login.

I have internet at work but it's a slow package, so if I use my internet on LE then it makes everything else I use at a snail pace, so if I can connect to the public XfinityWiFi which the signal is strong, it would make it easier for me.

Is this possible ??

Quote from CvH

the skin is outdated and likely not updated to the current features anymore, typical problem of outdated 3rd party skins

if you update LE you get whatever is at that version - you can't cherry pics programs/drivers/kodi version like you can do it at for example Ubuntu

its an complete os in one file

Any suggestions on a similar skin ?? I don't like Estuary, I like having a Home button and Beck button on home screen. and of course the home shortcuts and favs.

That's why I don't see it, Because I'm using Confluence skin.

you always update complete LE, incl all drivers, kodi etc ...

your userdata is ofc still there after update

What do you mean about the above.

Quote from CvH

DJB628 you can also update with img.gz files since LE7 no need for tar files anymore

at skin settings you can disable the homescreen shortcuts

Yes I know, but I don't see the one for Games ?? Nor do I see the feature to enable Subtitle when they talk a different language

For future you saying if I put the Img file now in the update folder it'll also update Kodi version ??

Anyone know how to disable Games shortcut on Home screen ??

OK will give it a whirl, thanks
