Corrupted SD card is readonly and not mounting












1















I'm having issues trying to recover a corrupted micro-SD card (not the data, just the card). I think it was formated to be part of the internal storage of an Android phone when that was an option.

# fdisk -l /dev/sdb
Disk /dev/sdb: 29.7 GiB, 31914983424 bytes, 62333952 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: 69704183-D789-43CC-A52A-6B69A888EA09

/dev/sdb1 2048 34815 32768 16M unknown
/dev/sdb2 34816 62333918 62299103 29.7G unknown


I tried fdisk /dev/sdb, it yields:



fdisk: cannot open /dev/sdb: Read-only file system


I checked the adapter and is not locked. I tried mount --options remount,rw /dev/sdb and it says:



mount: /dev/sdb: mount point not mounted or bad option.


without the remount option:



mount: /dev/sdb: can't find in /etc/fstab.


so apparently it's not mounted but still read only? anyway mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ does not yield an assertive error message:



mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.


Another output I got from reading stuff on the internet:



# e2fsck -f -n /dev/sdb
e2fsck 1.44.3 (10-July-2018)
e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a valid ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
or
e2fsck -b 32768 <device>

Found a gpt partition table in /dev/sdb


also tried both variants suggested and got the same output.
I'm not sure how to proceed as I can't get the card mounted (tried several filesystems) or even remove the read only condition. Any ideas?
