How to read the cid of an sd card

 

[🤖]

To find the CID of an SD card on Windows, follow these steps:

1. Insert the SD card into your computer's SD card reader.
2. Open the Start Menu and type "cmd" in the search bar.
3. Right-click on the Command Prompt application and select "Run as administrator".
4. In the Command Prompt window, type "wmic diskdrive list brief" and press Enter.
5. Find the SD card in the list of disks displayed in the window. Look for a line in the output that resembles the following:

"2 SanDisk Ultra USB Device 3.75 GB DISKDRIVE \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE1"

6. Make note of the "PHYSICALDRIVE" number associated with the SD card. In this example, the number is "1".
7. In the Command Prompt window, type "wmic diskdrive get serialnumber" and press Enter.
8. Look for the serial number associated with the "PHYSICALDRIVE" number you noted earlier. This should be the CID of the SD card. It will be a long string of numbers and letters.

Note: If you have multiple SD cards connected to your computer, make sure you select the correct one by verifying the size or the brand/model of the SD card.

Is CID same as Serial ID?

Is CID same as Serial ID?

No, CID (Card Identification Register) is a unique identification code that is specific to SD cards, while Serial ID (Serial Number) is a unique identification code or number that is given to a specific device by its manufacturer. The CID is used to identify the SD card and is used for forensic analysis or for compatibility with certain devices, while the Serial ID is used by the manufacturer for tracking, inventory purposes, warranty claims, and the like. Therefore, they are not the same, and you should not confuse one with the other.

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. To get the CID of an SD card on Windows, you can use the following steps:

1. Insert the SD card into your computer's SD card reader.
2. Download and install the Android SDK Platform Tools from the official Android website. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.)
3. Once installed, open a Command Prompt window by pressing Win + R keys, typing "cmd" and pressing Enter.
4. In the Command Prompt window, navigate to the directory where the Android SDK Platform Tools have been installed. (e.g. C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools)
5. Type "adb shell" and press Enter.
6. Type "cd /sys/class/mmc_host/mmcX/mmcX:0001/" (replace "X" with the number of the SD card as shown in the output of the "wmic diskdrive list brief" command in my previous response) and press Enter.
7. Type "cat cid" and press Enter.
8. The CID of the SD card should be displayed in the Command Prompt window.

Is there another way of finding the CID of an sd while only using windows

Is there another way of finding the CID of an sd while only using windows

Unfortunately, there is no built-in way to find the CID of an SD card in Windows without the use of additional tools or software. The method I provided earlier using the Android SDK Platform Tools is one of the most reliable ways to obtain the CID of an SD card.

If you prefer not to use the Android SDK Platform Tools, you can also try using third-party software such as ChipGenius, which is a free tool specifically designed to identify USB flash drives and storage devices, including SD cards.

To use ChipGenius to find the CID of an SD card in Windows, follow these steps:

1. Download and install ChipGenius from a trusted source.
2. Launch ChipGenius and insert the SD card into your computer's SD card reader.
3. In ChipGenius, look for the SD card in the list of connected USB devices.
4. Click on the SD card to select it.
5. The CID of the SD card should be displayed in the "Serial Number" field.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

How about on linux system is there a way

How about on linux system is there a way

Yes, there is a way to find the CID of an SD card on a Linux system. You can use the "cat" command to read the contents of the "cid" file located in the /sys/class/mmc_host/mmcX/mmcX:0001/ directory, where "X" is the number of the SD card.

Here are the steps to follow:

1. Insert the SD card into your computer's SD card reader.
2. Open a terminal window on your Linux system.
3. Type "sudo fdisk -l" and press Enter. Look for the device name associated with the SD card (e.g. /dev/sdb, /dev/mmcblk0).
4. Type "sudo su" and press Enter to switch to the root user.
5. Type "cd /sys/class/mmc_host/mmcX/mmcX:0001/" (replace "X" with the number of the SD card as shown in the output of the "fdisk -l" command).
6. Type "cat cid" and press Enter.
7. The CID of the SD card should be displayed in the terminal window.

Note: You must have root access to your Linux system to perform these steps. Also, make sure you replace "X" with the correct number of the SD card.

When i inserted the sd card on my linux its says "Tuning execution failed -22" what does this means

When i inserted the sd card on my linux its says "Tuning execution failed -22" what does this means

The "Tuning execution failed -22" error message typically indicates that there is an issue with the communication between the SD card and the SD card reader on your Linux system. This could be due to a number of reasons, such as a faulty SD card, a damaged SD card reader, or a problem with the drivers on your Linux system.

Here are some steps you can try to resolve this issue:

1. Make sure the SD card is properly inserted into the SD card reader.
2. Try using a different SD card reader or a different computer to see if the issue persists.
3. Check that the SD card reader is properly connected to your Linux system and that the drivers are installed correctly.
4. Try running the "dmesg" command in the terminal to check for any error messages related to the SD card reader or the SD card.
5. If you are still having issues, try updating the drivers for your SD card reader or resetting the USB ports on your Linux system.

If none of these steps work, it is possible that the SD card itself may be faulty or damaged, and you may need to replace it.

If your SD card is working fine on Windows but not on Linux, it's possible that the file system on the card is not supported by your Linux system.

To check the file system of your SD card, you can insert it into your Windows computer, right-click on the SD card drive, select "Properties," and then click on the "Tools" tab. Under "Error-checking," click on "Check" to scan the SD card for errors and view the file system.

If the file system is not compatible with your Linux system, you can try reformatting the SD card on Windows to a file system that is compatible with Linux, such as Ext4. To do this, right-click on the SD card drive, select "Format," and then choose "ExFAT" or "FAT32" as the file system.

Alternatively, you can try installing the necessary drivers or packages on your Linux system to support the file system of your SD card. This may involve installing packages such as exfat-fuse, ntfs-3g, or other drivers depending on the file system.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Its already on fat32 system

Its already on fat32 system

If your SD card is already formatted to FAT32 and you are still unable to read it on your Linux system, there may be an issue with the drivers or configuration on your Linux system.

Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check if the SD card is detected by your Linux system. You can use the "lsblk" command in the terminal to list all the connected storage devices, including the SD card.

2. If the SD card is detected, check if it is mounted. You can use the "mount" command in the terminal to list all the mounted file systems. If the SD card is not mounted, you can try mounting it manually using the "mount" command.

3. If the SD card is not detected by your Linux system, try removing and reinserting it to ensure a proper connection. You can also try using a different SD card reader or a different USB port.

4. Make sure you have the necessary drivers or packages installed on your Linux system to read the file system of the SD card. You can try installing the "exfat-fuse" and "exfat-utils" packages, which allow you to read and write to exFAT file systems on Linux.

5. Try using a different Linux distribution or version to see if the issue persists. It's possible that the issue may be specific to your current Linux environment.
