can it be that some sdcards can not be gold-carded?
I use a 32GB no-name microSD card and could not read it in windows after the gold-card procedure :-(
had to reformat it to be readable :-/

Hi, I bought a micro SD card from ebay - sandisk 16gb. I am with HTC HD2 .When I put it in the phone, the phone bugs and I can not do anything.When I remove it - everything comes normal again.
card reader on your pc? if so, do a full format (not quick format) set FAt32 and block size 4k
if taht doesnt fix it, get your money back.
The PC reads the card but the phone can't.
Nokia n96 can read the SD Card but the HD2 cant ???? wtf?? Can the HD2 read 16gb cards
I have a 32gb sd card and formatted with my nook tablet. I've tried to put the videos and photos files (over 2gb) to my device. It can be appeared first time. But some of the files disappeared after I reboot the device or connect to pc. And also I can't download some of the exter download files (almost 200mb to 1gb) from apk. I want to know it's the problem of the format method (fat 32) or my card problem? Thanks!
is that the way to partition the sd? HOw to do for nook tablet? Thanks
please help........!!!!
You do know that FAT32 will not handle a file over 4GB.....
I would format the card in a card reader on your PC and not let the Tablet do that.
It doesn't appear that he is trying to load a single file of over 4GiB, but rather that the collection is of the sizes that he mentioned.
Will FAT32 not handle a 32GiB drive, with a bunch of files of just say 50~500MiB each? Because I remember not too long ago doing just that on my PC...
FAT32 Should read just fine....hmm ...perhaps reformat the card for.another format and see if that fixes the issue? If not, your tab could have a bug somewhere. Try a factory reset
I thought the NT could only handle 16gb expandable storage. The guy in the store told me it is a combined 16gig internal and external to achieve 32gig and a 32gig card would not work.

I am using a 32gb card in my Nook at the moment. It seems to recognize the entire 32gb just fine. Worth the <$40 it cost.
And to the OP, formatting my 32gb SD card was a b***h. I had to format it in win7 as just popping it in the Nook didn't work. I formatted as FAT32. I would suspect you may need to re-format the card with a PC as other posters have suggested.
I've been using a little free program from http://www.sdcard.org called SDformatter that works great for formatting SD cards.
By the way, some of my extra download files for the game displayed as 0b. And I can't delete.

That is the suggested formatter for the SD card in the Nook Tablet based on a thread buried deep here on XDA.
So I purchased this Micro SDHC card when I was overseas thinking its a decent deal.
It was a Verbatim 16gb Class 10 (Verbatim 44010)
Long Story Short:
I had to format the card to exfat in order for my phone to write to it.
Using fat32, the phone can read the card just fine but can't write to it.
If I tried to format the card with the phone, I get the same problem (I guess the phone formats it to fat32?)
The card reads/writes fine in both formats when plugged into the pc
What do you guys think? Something is wrong with the card?
A its a question .
Probable faulty card .

I9300 and 8GB SanDisk Class 10 SDHC
This is the version that is branded as ideal for Android that came with a Sandisk application for you to download.The card has been working fine for 1 month and then suddenly while my computer can read/write to it just fine....the S3 can only read the contents from it but can't write to it. It is originally formatted to FAT32, now my phone can't copy files to it (whatever file types) using the stock file app and the camera won't even save photos to it with an error that says "copy failed" or "can't save to storage".....Having seen this post being the closest to what I am experiencing, I am wondering if I should try exFAT too.....
I had had a SanDisc 32 GB class 10 and everything was ok, until the time in which I needed more than 30GB in my HTC Desire X. So, I decided to buy the Kingston microSD 64 GB class 10. Even though our phone has official limit at 32 GB, after googling I noticed that I would not have problem with this card. So I bought it.
From the begin I had a few problems. Very often, about 2-3 times every day, it was required to unmount - mount the card for reading some files or for renaming them.
... it was not big problem for me. But from yesterday, I cannot have access to the sd. I see a message Damaged SD card, SD card is damaged, try reformatting it. And if I try reformatting it, nothing happens. Also in settings - storage I cannot mount the card, and I just see that SD card is unavailable...
What I have to do now? To try a format from windows 7? If so, what format? Fat32, ntfs or something else?
Maybe it is better to use the warranty?
Thank you in advance...
For sdcard, try to format to fat32 (should work either using gparted or windows format tools).
try to format your sdcard with the offical tool from the sdcard association:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/
if you wanna format your sdcard the right way, THIS IS THE TOOL TO GO!
The SD Formatter was created specifically for memory cards using the SD/SDHC/SDXC standards
if you still have problems, try to get a replacement from your dealer or sandisk directly.
if that doesnt help, try a different brand like kingston, samsung, etc....
My note is not seeing my 16Gig micro SDHC card...
It worked before, then I switched it out (with a 4Gig card) to do some file maintenance on it on my laptop. Now neither will read it. Any ideas on how to restore the 16Gig card (reformat or something)?
Thanks
