missing files on micro SDHC after transfer

Hi, i have my HTC hero rooted with the last Villainrom 12.0.0, i recently bought a new micro sd card 32gb and i dont know why but after i transfer data to my sd card i can see it, taste it, use it with no problems, but when i put the sd card into my phone some files get missing, i dont know why, but they just dissapear, may get into some kind of trash folder hidden into the card, but they are just gone...
i tried eather mounting the sd from my phone trough USB and retrieving the card from the phone and pluging it into the sd card reader in my pc, it doesnt matter, the problem stays.
i thougt may be it was some problem with the partition, i had the partition to use apps2sd, ext3 and all the crap, but the issue was still there, then i formatted in my pc fat32, still the problem, and finally formatted trough my phone fat32 and the problem persists, i dont know if maybe some software on my phone is making this happen or anything...
i dont know what to think, i know my sd card is ok becouse i used it filled with data and had no problems before...
please help me.... im gonna cry
I have exactly the same problem with my HD2... trying to upgrade from 8bg micro SD to 2gb micro SD.... everything copies across (or so it seems) however all the files in the 'program files' folder haven't come across, nor has my TOMTOM gps folder files..... ?
I've tried everything I can think of, why can I not copy card to card via my PC.... I'm sure it was simple when I changed from 2gb to 8gb cards.
Any help very much appreciated.

Micro SD card wont format after GoldCard

Hey i created a goldcard to flash my hero and wanted to use it for my sony ericson again but after i format it on the computer the full format not the quick one and when i try to format it on the phone it comes out as damaged sd card any suggestion on how to fix this? ty in advance
could you please elaborate on what a GOLDCARD hero is
The X10 should offer a "Format to repair" option once it recognizes the SD card as damaged. Otherwise, try deleting the partition on your computer (but not re-formatting) and then stick it in the X10 to see if it'll format.
@424aca: A goldcard is a SD card with files for rooting/unlocking. It's how a lot of other phones have to get root.

try formatting the Sdcard(external) within the phone, after that reboot ur phone, then connect to pc and transfer files and see
Format the sd card and then copy the files you backed up to the computer maybe you did something like hitting the wrong button on somewhere...

To format external SD in your phone,
Goto, Settings - Storage - Erase SD ( make sure you are erasing your external SD, you can use the size to confirm)
Or do it in CWM recovery

Can't mount external sd card

Hello. When trying to flash my mini X android box, I used sd card from my sgs2. After that, I inserted the card to sgs2 and rebooted.
The telephone said "Corrupted card" and asked to format. However, it formatted internal sd card!! And it doesn't see the external one.
I've tried formatting external sd to fat32. No luck.
What should I do?

Well, this may sound stupid or strange, but what I couldn't do with gParted or Windows partition was easily done by putting sd-card to my Note 10.1
My problem is solved by now. The only thing that bothers me is that my internal sd is formatted and everything's lost. If anyone knows how to recover all data, please pm me

I had the same problem but with 16GB
On SII specification you can read that it supports sdcards up to 32GB
But I'll try to help you
Check SDCard on another computer (if it reads it, make backup on HDD, Pendrive, etc. and then format it on FAT32) or another phone (it's not important on which). If it won't help, I'll think about it
