Some more info.
What is the prob? Where does it come from (what did you do)?
What have you changed?

And especially:
what FS (file system) is on te card?
If FAT then there are hundreds/thousands of solution posts here on TMO (michaa).

You should not fiddle with fstab at all and should not need to fiddle with mount-opts.

Your problem is most likely a corrupt file system on your card. In such cases, it is mounted as R/O. Run a disk check or, if you are not bothered with lost data, just format the card on the device. Press and hold in File Manager brings up the context menu with the Format option.

Its not corrupt n mounts ro per mount-opts. The fs is vfat

Sorry bout making new thread I didn't do thorough search. I did read through auto search for existing thread. I don't recall having this problem in past.

Attach to Win PC and do an automatic FS check with auto-repair option ...

That's nice. Have you tried check disk, as adviced twice?

mrapathy | # 8 | 2016-08-09, 20:28 | Report

Guess I will have to when I get access to a pc

peterleinchen | # 9 | 2016-08-09, 20:54 | Report

You do not need a PC but just some search skills.
michaaa62 has dozens of posts with how-to-do that on device.

pichlo | # 10 | 2016-08-09, 21:07 | Report

Yes, it all comes down to running fsck on the device. To save you some time, here is a spoonfeed:
