You might need to use hekate to repartition and reformat your sd card to work with android. Do you know how your sd card is formatted?

I would say this is the correct answer. When you copied over the files to the new sd card, you were only copying the files from that partition. Android get installed to different partitions that you can't just simply copy and paste.

I use pc reformat sd card (fat32), but not use hekate to repartition. Is this the problem?

If I use hekate to repartition sd card and copy files again now, can resolve the problem?

I know the cause of the problem. The previous card had two partitions, while the current card has only one partition. Directly copying the files only replaced the partition of the atmosphere, but did not replace the partition of android. Finally, I re-partitioned and re-installed it.

Thanks

would a partition assistant work? like AOMEI or Win32DiskImager for example. To clone one card to another

I am not familiar with those programs. If they are capable of formatting sd cards to a format that android can understand, then they might work.

I tried AOMEI and the clone card function. To clone the an entire 256GB card to a 1TB card. It cloned it but without the android partitions as it doesn't recognise the file system.

If you can find a partition assistant program that can recognise then it should work but AOMEI isn't the one. Haven't tried Win32DiskManager.

Should be able to do a sector based clone of the entire drive. I found the free version of AOMEI Partition Assistant has a lot of arbitrary limitations so EASEUS Partition Master works better for me.
