Hi Nithin,
So basically, you can copy your photos, but you cannot format the device, right? Using some third party utilities and a Linux OS was a good idea. Unfortunately, it is highly possible that the SD card has been damaged. Connect the card to a Windows PC and run the Command Prompt. Type the following commands:
Diskpart
List disk
Select disk n (n must be the drive’s number)
Attributes disk
Please check if the drive has a Read Only status enabled. If it is marked as Yes, continue using the commands:
Attributes disk clear readonly
Exit
Try again formatting the SD card.
Hope this helps
