Ok so i bought a new 32GB card to use with my new GS4. First it started giving problems where it would sometmes tell me that the card wasn't mounted. then after a while it stopped working altogether. the card is totally unreadable now and i haven't been able to recover the data with any app so far. it kills me to think that i'm going to have to just take a loss on all the pics i had and just format the card. Anybody else having this problem?
What ROM are u running? There are issues with running wicked and messing up your SD card

I had a problem with a card where it wouldnt stay mounted and after formatting it it still wouldn't. I was able to back everything up when I put the card into my computer. SanDisk gave me a new card and its all good now. Try putting it on a computer and see if you can back it up

I don't see why not, but don't take my word for it.
I think with 32GB there are a few problems, not with the stock rom though (as far as I know).
Well il try it and see. How do I copy ALL data of my sd to put on my new one as it only shows my pictures and such, no app or games. Thanks
Using A 32GB Class 4, works fine.
Have a 2GB EXT4 on it which also works fine.

The way I did it was;
Make a nadroid backup on the old card
Backup old card to PC
Partition the new card
Copy everything to the new card
Then restore nadroid backup
Should look like nothing has changed, apart from having more space
i'm using a 32gb class 10 lexar and it's working a treat for me. sorted it out with gparted ready for my rom.
no problems here.
Right I have no idea what's happening but I have formated the new sd and partioned it. When I copy all my files from my mid SD only some will copy. I mean it shows then all but then if I put it in my phone there not there and when I plug it back into the pc there not there. Very strange. And its important ones like the backups and ROMs. What can be up?

Sounds like a fake china one from eBay...
They trick a smaller card (2GB for example) to look like a 32GB

There is a tool you can run something like h2testw that you can run on the whole card to see if there's any errors. I ran it on one I bought which was duff

Worked fine with 32GB ADATA class4 on stock pre-rooted Froyo.
I tried on GingerVilain, it's work, but it is slower of Froyo.
Right cheers for all the replys will do some more testing without it partitioned and such to see if it is defo fake.
Right I gave bought a new card which admittedly is a cheap one again although it says on there website that it is tested on h2testw and is fully functional. But I have had the same problems as before so decided to run h2testw on the card and it says the card is likely to be deffective. Is there anything else apart from it being a dodgy card again. I can't belitd sellers can say they are ok when there not.

I'm thinking your SD card is faulty, and you are making them send you new phones for nothing.
Or there is something physically wrong with the SD card, that is damaging the card tray on the phone when you insert it.
Either way, 3 different phones, same SD card, same problem. Card is probably the cause.

I was downloading a file on my phone and the phone turned off. So I thought okay swap battery and turn on and everything was fine and the file downloaded correctly.
Well I was sitting there and all of sudden phone said Sd Card not inserted? Well it was Inserted so I did the put in put out. And still no go it came up with a blank sd card and says filesystem is not supported? So then it says format it which I tried but it won't work nor will it mount at all. I have a video of it ill upload in a few mins when its done.
If this is the dead Sd card syndrome well is there any way to get data back?

So long story short: my 32gb sandisk micro sd ended up getting split in two partitions so I have two seperate 14gb partitions, one is fat32 and the other is ntfs I believe..
I have used every tool / program / fix that I can find and am now at the point of giving up on this SD card..
Can anyone suggest ANYTHING at all, so far nothing has worked for me..
Oh and its dead in the sense that neither my GT 10.1 nor my s3 will read the sd card.
If you have access to a PC, I recommend MiniTool Partition Wizard. If you're trying to get information off the card, I recommend MiniTool Power Data Recovery.
Also, you may be able to get the card replaced for free under warranty. Many SD cards have, like, 5 year or lifetime warranty.
I tried using MiniTool Partition Wizard, but it wouldn't allow me to recover both partitions im assuming because one is fat32 and the other is ntfs. Ill try the other tool tomorrow. Thanks for the reply and suggestion!
Hey try this fix, it's worked for me in the past for a corrupted SD card but I never partitioned mine. Good luck!

I bought my Sandisk 32gb card less than a year ago and it pooped out. Ended up throwing it out because I couldn't reformat it. Thought the cause might be my phone heating up.

I have a SG Note2 ..I bought a 64 gig card ( Sandisk) when I got the phone, installed and formatted it. Up until last week I didn't really notice the storage on it. I was downloading some old albums via uTorrent and all of a sudden I was told I had insufficient storage space. I downloaded anyway, checked, made sure all was on the SD Card, and then did a restart..after the restart all my newly downloaded music was gone, and I saw that I had 59 gigs TOTAL SPACE..but only 36 gigs AVAILABLE SPACE..
My phone is Rooted, and somewhere I remember being told that none of the ROMs recognize 64 gig cards. I did not root my phone, a friend did it for me and I spoke to him today ..he told me that I should try and reformat the card with the phone again..I did and once again it said I had 36g of storage available..but showed 59g Total Space.
Can someone tell me if this is a problem with the ROM or is it a problem with the phone..I have read in other Forums that Samsung doesn't support 64g SD Cards..is there any way to get the phone to recognize the card? Or is it an error with the card? I am not sure that it read 64g when I installed it, I just assumed it did.
I am in the process of trying to learn how to re root my phone, I was content to just let it be.if it is a fact that I will never have access to 64g on this phone as a Rooted Phone, then perhaps I should go back to Stock?
I could really use some help..I am truly lost in technical jargon..and do not fully understand rooting..If you all could help me out here I would appreciate it...I would like to learn, but like any Newbie I am scared I'll mess my phone up..I am good with Computer stuff, just scared of Killing my phone,,LOL!
59.45GB is what mine shows and I believe that is correct. The note 2 definitely does support 64GB cards.

Okay, then why do I show 36.9g available?? And it won't reformat at all..I tried several times..My Laptop says I don't have permissions to format it on there and I cannot remember how to change that..Can't even do a chkdsk on it with the permissions screwed up....

Contact Sandisk, they will replace it. This is what I did when my card took a crap, I had a new one within a week.
