Please, I put on my phone this morning and I saw a pop-up that states "issue with sd card. Tap to fix".
When I tap, it demands that I format the sd card for it to work.

Firstly, what could be the cause of this sudden issue with sd card?

Secondly, I have files and data on that sd card that I don't want to lose. Please, is there a way to fix the issue without formatting?

Remove it and do scan for errors and fix using a PC. Follow this procedure out you don't know how to:

Connect to your PC > Open My Computer > Right Click on the Storage > Properties > Tools > Check > Scan and repair drive > Fix (if found any error). This won't format the card but only to fix the errors (if any).

What kinda card are you using? You may send a pic of it if possible.

Lastly, always use the safe eject feature of your device or switch the phone OFF each time you want to eject the SIM tray. It's very important to avoid R/W errors.

Now you are contradicting yourself. You first said battery drain started immediately after checking for an update, now it was updated before you bought it.

Do you know that unstable network leads to battery drain?
Also keeping two unstable networks on 4G also leads to battery drain?

Check those two things out.
I don comot my second dim and will get another phone for it cos I don't want that double dim wahala

Android 10

It is showing an X sign that is why I am asking. Turn off the SIM and see if the drain will stop.

Uhm, If you look at this image. Towards the "Left Middle part" of the screen, you'll notice a kind of white blemish(I don't know what to call it).

It came with my RN9 Pro(Out of the Box). Can someone tell me what it is? And if it'll go away??

It should go away.

Who knows Where I can get the Redmi Note 9 Pro 33watts Charger?
The out of box charger is 33 watts na, cos mine came with 33 watts charger out of box, or did anything happen to yours?

Yea but your phone charges at 30W. So if anything happens to your charger or you need a backup charger, a 30W PD Charger should do.

Hopefully when I start using the phone fully...
I still haven't been able to start.

Moving files, logins and other necessaries from one phone to another is one very tiring procedure.

That is a beautiful gesture, I normally do like that just that am financially constrained now because no one knows when badluck will strike.
I was even considering buying the display assembly for note 9 pro and storing it away incase of when mine will have fault and I'll not be able to raise fund for it and endure the wait time from aliexpress.

If your previous phone was xiaomi, once you use mi mover, your new phone will be like the old one. that was what I used.

You don't need to that, you can disable the sim in settings >sim cards.

Depends on the generator. Those "handbag" types have unsteady power output, could be wrong, and that's why most people advice not charging your device with them.

up till now, I don't understand why people say that gasoline or diesel electric generators kill phone batteries. You plug your charger to AC socket at 220v,
of course some come with over current fuse. The 220V AC is stepped down to either 12V AC for ones that have transformers, from the transformers, the diodes connected in full bridge configuration converts the 12v AC to 12V DC but not a pure one since there are presence of harmonics. There is a capacitor connected across the line to filter off the harmonics so that the current you'll be getting will resemble more of a DC which your phone battery requires to charge. once the filtering is done by a capacitor, the current is passed through a voltage regulator or a zener diode connected in reverse polarity to clip the voltage at 5v which is then fed to your phone to charge the battery via the charging port. If a generator can affect your phone, it means you have a faulty charger. My explanation is just the basic power conversion in our chargers as modern chargers have complex circuit systems to regulate current in real time, guard against short circuit, temperature and even have the ability to detect cord impedance to determine matching power.
In all these, you can charge your phone with generator once your charger is good.

Nice analysis but constant use on an unstable power source(I am not restricting this case study to generating sets alone) should be accounted for. Wear and tear. Circuit components have their elastic limits as well. There is so such a device with a Voltage protective Circuit can take.

Takes me back to my project days...

Some earlier units of RN9s had their fixed with an update. OnePlus fixed the OP8 Pro with an update too. So I guess sometimes it is not always hardware.

yea, with time even with a constant good quality power, circuit components deteriorate and will wear out, just that the bad electricity can wear them out faster.
You studied electrical engineering?
