    I recently got a new 32GB sd card on eBay but when I put it in my Huawei ascend 300 it doesn't recognise it and I can't transfer files onto it.. I got it fairly cheaply so I'm wondering could it be a bad card or something?? Thanks for your help

    Maybe the card I got was a cheap one, it's not recognised in the computer either

    From a non teckie, I got one for my wife and she's thrilled with it, aside from the phone and texting, she uses it mainly for music and checking the net and emails, decent enough camera too.

    All android can stall from time to time wouldn't worry to much about it. As for that memory card 32gb is overkill 16gb is prob enough.
