my pin etc, i am able to proceed further but my SD Card does not get encrypted at boot. I get an error saying 'sd card encryption error occurred'. When i go to encrypt the device again, it says 'Unable to encrypt SD card. Not Enough space on card. Approximately 1.00 MB needed. Delete some files. To use your SD Card, it must be encrypted. Tap Continue to encrypt your SD card.' .. and obviously when sd card encryption mac i press continue, i get this 'Unable to encrypt...' error again. At this point, i can't even view the contents of my sd card on my samsung phone. (very bad). The only solution i have found at the moment which is NOT feasible is to take my SD card out, put it in a computer, reformat the sd card, re-add my files and re-encrypt my sd card again. I know there is a 'Exclude multimedia files' when encrypting the sd card but this option is gray'd out as it is 'controlled by remove administrator' who is my work. They will not change their settings as it turns out, i actually work for a media company. Please advise!! Any help would be appreciated. All i really want to do is be able to listen to music!!

I had to encrypt the SD card for the same reason. Somehow it became corrupted - no reason I can think of. I searched for a solution that made sense and couldn't find one; I'm posting this here because this was the first search result using Google. In any case, I fixed it. Here's how: I shut the phone down, removed the MicroSD card fro

Google play error -8 I have also come across this problem when attempting to update my apps, with Google Play presenting http://androidforums.com/threads/sd-card-encryption-error-occurred.723175/ error code -8. This is probably due to running out of space on the SD card. There was no indication that the SD card encryption was failing, but when I restarted my phone it failed. Try removing content As the ‘not enough free space on card’ message suggests, a potential fix is to use a card reader on your PC to free up space on the card by deleting some files. If you don’t have any files that you can http://mindspill.net/computing/android-notes/recovering-android-encrypted-sd-card/ remove from your card, or if you’re wary about doing so, then you can try to Repair the SD card filesystem via PC. I chose to delete the ‘LOST.DIR’ directory, because this is a system directory that contains corrupted files and it will be recreated by Android (though its contents will not). It could be better to simply remove some music or images if you’ve got them backed up elsewhere, but remember that you’ll have to choose by the filename because you won’t be able to open any of the encrypted files. Turn off the phone. Remove the SD card. Mount the card on your PC. Copy its contents somewhere as a backup. Delete the ‘LOST.DIR’ directory. Unmount the card. Put it back in the phone, power on and pray. The first time I tried this it worked for me - I put the card back in the phone and it was decrypted as normal.

In fact the time stamps suggested that the files were created when my phone crashed yesterday. Better lose a few files than the entire contents of the card.
