In order to revive an SD card through a format ..... it has to be recognized....... when the card is no longer recognized.... that's when you might as well throw it away!

Can you format your card and put some files on it using you computer then put it back in the phone then open up any explorer app on your phone and move those files around. The more the better and pics are preferred. Go trough them using gallery and report back. I'm thinking that if the sd card crashes while inside your phone it might be a faulty port that's messing them up.

EDIT: aaaaand fail.. for some reason I thought that your computer recognized the faulty card. But just in case it does give it a shot. And btw the higher class it is the faster that card dies. I would recommend class 6 which is fast enough to watch a 60 fps movie. With the HTC amaze we have enough onboard storage to record few hours of hd videos that you can just transfer after you record if that's why you are going for such fast cards.

This is just some B.S. I guess I'm just gonna have to keep buying cards and doing frequent backups of my card. But the problem with the last one was, I wasn't doing anything at all with it. All it was trying to do was open gallery.... that's it! It was having loading content that was NOT being played OR recorded!

Have you always had this problem, or is it just with your device?
