Stock Card Died!!!

[enthuz]

Today I got errors about my SD Card. It wouldn't mount, format and I couldn't copy the files over to my PC. Also Sprint says that the SD Card isn't covered by the warranty...only the phone...that blows. I have to go by the store in the morning and hope that they will give me another one. If not, then I will have to save up for a 32GB card...if I'm going to pay for it, then I should get what I really want. To think, I just moved a lot of apps over to it my phone was running so smoothly before today.:'(

Thanks for the heads up. If from a reliable maker and dealer, then that would be great. I was just looking at a PNY 32GB Class 10. It is like the commercial where the guys break things so he can get something new, except Sandisk did it for me.

Try Ebay or Amazon for prices on a new card. Those are the main places I go to get new memory cards. You just need to make sure that you read up on the seller. See what type of feedbacks that they have gotten.

from woot deals: SanDisk 32GB Class 4 High-Speed MicroSDHC Card With Full Size SD Adapter & Jewel Case! + Fast Free Shipping!

I know I know, it's a class 4. That works for me for what I need read comments if unsure.

Someone on one of my lists ordered one, not sure if she got it yet. But a few days ago they had stock. Now that i finally found the link they are out. Not sure if they offer rain checks or not. Check it out anyway.
I have a 32GB Class 4 card already but for that price i might order a back up one.

EDIT forgot its 34.99 free shipping. when it was in stock.

That's a pretty good price, but when buying a new memory card, you might want to ask how the memory card had arrived to their store. A lot of companies will sell (Bulk Packaging) memory cards, which are often times knock-offs mass produced in China. You want to try and buy memory cards from USA sellers, who don't sell Bulk Packaging memory cards. Make sure the card will ship within its OEM box. Knock-offs can also be sold in what look like OEM boxes, but its a safer bet to stick with boxed-cards, then Bulk Packaging cards. Knock-off anything are a waste of money in the long run.

Good point. I requested an answer. I will post their reply.

I followed up with 2 people i know who bought them. 1 is in love the other isnt. The one who isnt is not happy with his transfer speeds. He did say it was slower then his class 6 card but didnt mention if it was still in line with the class 4 that it is advertised to be. I think for the price i am still happy knowing its 32GB. As a back up card that will work great for me.

I wonder if this is worth it? $200 retail? Seriously?

Still no response from the company. This doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy if I had a problem after sale.

I had the exact same problem a couple days ago. After doing some research, I was able to completely repair the SD card and keep ALL of my data (including apps moved to sd card). All I did was run chkdsk from the command prompt on my PC. I took the SD card out of the phone (I didn't attempt this on the card while it was in the phone and connected to the PC as a disk drive, although it may work that way too) and put it in a microSD to USB adapter I have. I then opened a command prompt (in Windows 7 click on the start menu, then type "cmd" and hit enter in the search box) and ran the following command "chkdsk /x /f <sd card drive letter>" (for example: chkdsk /x /f g: ) This repaired the errors on my card, and I popped it back into my phone and it worked perfectly.

Yeah I tried that too. It kept crashing windows. I tried three different PCs with the same outcome.
