Im 100% stock, bought a new 32gb card and i can see the card but it keeps giving a error saying its corrupt. I tried to format it several times and each time no luck. I put it in my tab and no issues so idk what the problem is... can anyone help?

try TWRP 2.3.3.1 Recovery

I Have same problem with my SGS3 in CWM Recovery with 32 GB class 10 Micro card.

Maybe try TWRP 2.3.3.1 Recovery (that works with my 32 GB Card)

I had a Sandisk 32gb Class 10 card I got back in November do this to me about a week ago. I quickly backed up the data off of it, put it on a 8gb card and it's been fine since. A card should not crap out after only 2-3 months.

Sounds like a bad card. Just return where you got it from and get another. I have a 32 Sandisk with no problems.

I had the exact same problem with a Sandisk 32gb Class 4 card - died after 2-3 months of use. Luckily, I was able to back it up on my PC before it finally gave out. The guy I ordered it from is exchanging it, but I'm concerned that the same thing will happen again.

EDIT: Looking at one of the reviews for an SD card on Amazon, a review has offered some great suggestions to check the SD card is authentic and can perform up to standard (i.e., if labeled a Class 10, reads/writes at 10MBs/sec). Full review can be found here.

One program is an app called SD Tools by Veluscek Ales (available here). It verifies the card information and helps to determine if it's fake or not.

Another free program for the PC is called H2testw (most current version as of writing is V1.4), and this tool will perform read/write tests on the card.

Yeah be careful with online SD cards. I've bought 2 in my lifetime and never will again. I will only buy from Walmart or any local retail store like staples best buy etc.

I bought mine from wally world and it didn't work straight out the box in my phone it works fine in my Xoom. I'm not sure why but I'm going to wait awhile before I try again.
