Help My phone won't save anything

[TheRaspBerryKing]

22 days ago, I woke up to find out my phone wouldn't take a picture. If I tried to take a picture, it would display it on the Camera roll preview in the bottom left corner, but I couldn't open it.

I also noticed if I tried to download an image online, it would instantly pause the download. If I tried to unpause it, it would start up for a second before quitting with a display saying whatever I had downloaded had "Quit due to a missing SD card." Apps will try to download for a while, then tells me it can't.

I got a Micro SD card a while back, formatted it to my phone and it had been working fine, it's been in my phone ever since, I tried reinserting it and ejecting it via the phone itself but it never solved my issue. I believe I have pictures set to save to my SD card, I can't figure out how to reset that though.

The storage on my internal memory and SD card both have room on them, 1.66 GB free on Internal and 6.29 GB on SD card. I can access the files already on my SD card through my phone, I've attempted Migrated data from SD card to internal but it said it couldn't, that might be due to not having enough room on Internal though. I can even migrate data to and from internal memory and SD card

At startup, the phone will display a message as son as it boots up saying "SD card missing, please reinsert this device." but that goes away after a few seconds.

I have an Alcatel Raven LTE Android version 7.1.1 Model A574BL.

I am having the same problem I don't know how to fix it. My photos are in my files, but I can't save them to my phone and I cant take any new photos

This is why should be using Google photos. It automatically saves them to the cloud. No need for an sd card and it will upload to the cloud only when on wifi if you set it up to do that so you don't have to worry about data consumption.

Are you using a file explorer to locate your files? Have you tried connecting your phone to your pc?

Go to

Settings>App manager>All>Camera

press 'clear data'

See if that helps!

If that didn't work Switch to Internal Storage and the problem should be gone!
