Transfer to sd card button unresponsive

[moth115]

I've had the phone about 6 months and only this last week or so had the issue. I've tried a number of sd cards, including ones I've used before that worked fine, but no luck.

Through settings- storage.. I can see i have about 4 gb of photos and videos, the sd card currently in there is 16 gb and It shows up on the screen..but when I click on the transfer to sd card button nothing happens.

I didn't have much internal memory left, so I've deleted loads of apps and files I didn't need, so currently have just over 1 gb of internal memory free, deleted all cache from apps, closed all apps etc, but still no response from the button.

I've searched online, could find sd card problems and solutions, but not this one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

It's still not working after restart.Just transferring more files using file commander.

That's quite odd, what if you boot on safe mode

The button still isn't working after restart. I've transferred files to sd card with file commander, and har just over 4 gb free of internal memory.

Have you come across this problem before?

Apologies, I didn't realise my last message had posted, and didn't see reply! I'll try safe mode, thanks

I have not, the only problem I had was that I was not able to transfer anything, once you transfer everything you could repair your phone with PCC

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

Still the same in safe mode. They grey bar at the bottom and horizontal bar across the top of screen go black for a second or two and then back to grey, is the only response when I press the button.

Thanks for link, I've been thinking I should back up on pc, so far not linked phone to my computer. I'll do that and then follow the other link.
Thanks
