Since Marshmallow (6.0) update on my Xperia M5 Dual SD card showing corrupted. but previously it was working fine on the lollipop.
after formatting the SD card in the safe mode, Phone detected the SD card.

but i cant copy paste anything into it.

when i use camera (data storage is set to SD card) pics are not saving on SD card, it is showing "There is some problem with your data storage"

I checked the SD card it is working in all other phones.
Any solution Please ..

I have the same problem.

I formatted the sd-card and restarted. It help for a while but same problem arrived later.

I tought that the problem was with sd card so I replaced that. After few hours same problem appeared also so with the second sd-card.

I have to say, when I got this phone I was pumped, when I found out Marshmallow was coming to this handset, I was excited, but boy did reality knock me down with a crash landing.

It has been an absolute nightmare. First, and I know a lot of you have had this issue, my sd card was shown as "corrupted" (by the way, use check disk on PC via Command Prompt with "chkdsk [Drive Letter]: /f", using a card reader, of any sort). Secondly, a couple of widgets I have been using, including a Walkman widget (as the current iteration from Music is a complete and utter piece of crap), no longer works.

For god sakes, Sony, sort it out, cos this is just not good enough....

Mine too, SD card is good for Moving application, copy files and moving photos to it. But if I selected to use SD card as saving space for camera, take one shot was OK, but second shot would not save to SD. So, I have to use internal memory for camera and then tranfer files to SD.

I have tried with two differnt cards and the result came out the same. So, it would be FW fault, wouldn't it? Yes, it had happened after 6.0 updated.
BTW, both microSDs are Strontium Nitro 566X 64GB. These two are working fine on PC and IP camera.

This is a user based forum, you can contact Sony directly, keep in mind that this is not the first time that faulty or fake SD cards have flooded the market, test different SD cards and report back.

I'm having the same problem. As soon as I updated to 6.0 I started having problems including SD card corruption and various other software crashes and problems. I ran a software repair on the phone on the same day and that fixed the problems on the phone itself, but I didn't try to put in the SD card again until today. After formatting it (through the phone) and transferring everything across including apps, photos and some music files which I only bought yesterday *grr*, I noticed that one of the apps I'd transferred said it was not responding. I shut down the phone and restarted and as soon as it came back to life, it said the SD was corrupted.
I didn't make the same mistake as last time where I allowed it to reformat, instead I took the card out and inserted into my laptop to save the files.
I've given up for now, I don't need this hassle of moving files and apps and having them become useless on the phone, so I'm sticking to just using the phone memory and cutting down on the amount of apps I would like.
