Abstract
A memory control method, a memory storage device and a memory control circuit unit are provided. The method includes: determining a retry threshold value according to decoding history information which includes information related to at least one first decoding operation previously performed; and determining whether to enter a second decoding mode according to the retry threshold value after at least one second decoding operation performed based on a first decoding mode is failed. A decoding ability of the second decoding mode is higher than a decoding ability of the first decoding mode.
