Default Microsd not recognized?

Hi,

I just bought a class 10 16gb off ebay. do class 10's not work? Or do I have to put certain files on the microsd to work? When I put it in the phone it just says there is no microsd but it works fine in my computer.


thanks

same thing happened with me as well. i had 8 gb micro sd card that came up with the phone.

yesterday i used it to install windows 7 on my acer aspire one d250 netbook. after that i formatted it and inserted into phone, it said "memory card removed, insert new one" though the computer was able to read it.

i reformatted it with fat32 and again inserted into myphone, same result
again with ntfs and same result(using mini tool partition wizard)

today also i kept playing with my sd card

just a couple of minutes ago i formatted my sd card with fat32

and then i right clicked my sd card in mini tool partition wizard>>>>> then i clicked "modify">>>>>>then clicked on "change partition type id"
>>>>>> i changed it to "0*06 fat16,greater than 32 mb" >>>>>>>and then yes

and guess what now my phone can read my sd card


and don't forget to apply changes on the left hand side on mini tool partition wizard



hope it helps
cheers

Yes .... i am not crazy.... both my 8gb and 2gb are not being recognized on x10i with baseband 54 or is it ... the xrecovery mod [Cyanogen6.1.3]gingerbread[v01]

either way i am going to downgrade to baseband 46 and do a full SEUS repair...

Class 10 works fine X10a stock or Bitsnacker. Problems recognising in CM ROMs. Used MiniTool (freeware; http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-...n-manager.html) to copy MicroSD to HDD (or empty USB) then Formatted Micro ON THE PHONE (Settings-SDcard...-unmount-Format) Mount on PC, then copy everything back to SD gets me recogn. and no data loss.....

I did that but the microSD card still not recognized. When I turned on my phone, it said that I had to format my card. But when I pressed OK, it said that "Formatting failed".
What should I do next?
