Any possibility your new 8gb is defective?
You have the zvh bugs just as this guy said

For anyone with these issues:

Formatting the SDHC cards in the phone with ZVH didnt work for me.

What did work - Use a card reader and format the card inside Windows. In the format window, select Allocation unit size, and try 'Default allocation size' then format(You can use quick format). If the phone still does not read the card, change this to 32 kilobytes. ( I have noticed that after the format, my card is a little slower in Windows, but my phone finally reads it. My SD read speeds on the phone though are at or above the cards stated rating, so it's fine cause i dont use it connected to the PC much.
