SD Card Stopped Working on Update - AstraLuma - 2026-08-03
So I just updated my Tangara from 1.5 to 2.1, and it no longer detects the SD card it was using.
64GB Samsung EVO, GPT, exFAT.
Reformatting didn't help.
Oh, apparently rebooting the device while the SD card is in it (which can only happen because the companion app started having trouble) forced it to rebuild the DB, and now it's happy.
and as soon as i re-inserted the card, it stopped working :'(

There's a known issue currently with detecting the card when it's inserted whilst the device is running. If you perform a hard reset to force the device to restart (both volume buttons held down, toggle the lock switch to the off position then back to the on position) then the card should be detected when the device starts. If that doesn't help, let me know, it might be another issue.

That sounds exactly like what I'm seeing; thanks!
