Since you have issues with the microSD card getting mysteriously overwritten, may I point you to this thread: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=681? Some broken fake SD cards are set up in a way where the actual capacity is only a fraction of the advertised one, and when writing to the higher-numbered sectors, it overwrites the lower-numbered ones (in modulo arithmetic, e.g., if the actual size is n, sector n+1 is actually the same as sector 1). That could explain what you are seeing.
I would suggest testing the SD card with f3probe: https://fight-flash-fraud.readthedocs.io/en/stable/. (Warning: Only use the --destructive switch if you are OK with the probe destroying the data on the SD card! Though, if the card is fake, even a non-destructive probe can end up destroying data.)
