I have no idea, call sprint
We're comin from a pure power source.

Actually the microSD card is considered an accessory and is not covered by any warranty. A store will more than likely tell you to purchase a new one.

Fake for sure...Probably a 2Gb in real storage..
Just ask the seller if it is a genuinly 32Gb card. IF he answers yes, order one. Then test is. If it is not 32Gb then open a complaint with PayPal\Ebay and get your money back.
(I know...I've got two fake 32Gb Kingston cards at home if you're interested )
hahahha no i m not interested i need a real 32 gb..i believe is 32gb but the class is what worries me..
have bought simillar card from ebay and gues what? fake
Haha what a shame..guess what? I texted the seller and asked him if its true class 10 and that i would test it if bought..what was the reply? He adviced me not to buy.. lol

Ext sdcard corruption

So I don't know what's happening but I have a 32gb class 10 micro sd card. And once a week it just goes corrupt and my files are all corrupt. It's seriously getting on my nerves and I don't know what to do. I I've formatted it in the phone and in a pc and it doesn't matter it still happens.

They don't last forever. Have you used that card a lot?

Any ideas? It will just abruptly stop saving pictures to my ext sdcard and when I use root explorer to see why it has changed from read/write to read/only.

Sounds like the card may just be faulty?
I have had one incident with my current SD card recently where it wiped itself but fortunately it hasn't happened again. I have a 32 GB Class 10 also. I have read of other experiences with QC issues with lesser known brands like "Patriot" (my current) or "PNY". I think for my next one I'll spend the extra dough and go Samsung. I hear those are built like tanks

SanDisk are the best. I have a 64GB class 10 microSDXC UHS-1 in mine.

It could be the card itself. Why not try another card and see if it happens on other cards.

I have a Samsung 16G one and went corrupt just the other day.
Good thing I back up my phone on the constant.
Never had issues with any cards till I got this phone.

Damnit! Not good news for me. I hate that the internal memory is all one partition. This is ridiculous.

Advice needed ASAP

Good morning,
I am about to trade my GS3 for a note 2. But the owner says the phone won't read the sim card. Can this be fixed

Get the IMEI number and make sure it's not being blocked or blacklisted, make sure it's not attached to EIP plan. Get the original sales receipt to verify it was purchased outright. Meet at a T Mobile store and have him remove it from his account and transfer to yours so it can't be reported stolen or lost and blacklisted down the line. Also, have the owner write out a bill of sale in the store. Anyone not willing to do this is no bueno.
As far as the SIM not being read try a different SIM while at T Mobile, that being said be careful buying these phones used, a lot of people bought them used and then the phone was blacklisted, protect yourself.

Besides the good advice from the above poster, I had a Sim tray break and since it is connected to the board, it was more expensive to fix than by a new phone. Just be very careful as said in the post above! Good luck.

SanDisk ultra 32gb

Just thought I'd share this since most companies nowadays don't give a cap about the customer...
I had an issue with my sd card mounting and dismounting on its own and being unusable and I went to SanDisk support and let them know and they sent me a brand new one free! If you have had any issues, do not hesitate to contact them because they will actually do something about it! They have a lifelong customer now.
I've had same experience with them as well, I've had Kingston do the same with ram that went bad I'll never buy anything else again

Sandisk has always replaced my bad micro sd cards. All I had to do was give them the serial number off the back (get out your microscope), and then ship it in using their ups label. Week later I would get a new one.

Quick question on selling a 4G device

I am selling my Rezound and Dna on eBay. Does the sim card usually go with the phone, and if so do I need to wipe anything on it? Thanks in advance, never sold a 4G device before.

No, keep your Sim cards or toss em.
No need to send to anyone, they will need their own.
No, keep it or trash it as Santod said.
Whenever a device is removed from Verizons system it flags the SIM card as unusable for 48 hours, sometimes burns it completely. So whoever buys your device needs to provide their own.
Thanks to both of you.
