One of the issue that i face with my raspberry pi 4 SD card. I removed it when it was in the pi case. Which broke the SD card chip in half internally.
Lesson : Always remove the SD carefully.
broke my 32 GB SD card while removing from Pi. I tried formatting with fdisk, mkfs.ext4 and Windows but none of them worked.
I have attached screenshot of fdisk /dev/sda
where I have created 1 partition but when i try to delete the same it’s giving error No partition is defined yet!
Here is the lsblk output:
