I have recently bought a 8GB Kingston microSDHC Card. When I inserted it in the phone and used my Desktop Manager to copy the contents, it wouldn't allow me to do so. In one of the posts there was a suggestion to format the Card. I have done that. Now I can access the Card through Desktop Manager. The probelm is that the capacity on the Card is only showing as 3.41 GB!! I know that FAT requires some memory and the entire 8 GB would not be available for storage. However this has reduced to half the capacity after formatting!!

Thanks JS. My Device Software version is 4.2.2.169. So I guess it can support only upto 4GB.
2 Questions then.
1. Is my card still having 8 GB Capacity? If I view the properties from my laptop (browsing to the drive and checking the properties) - the capacity displayed there is 3.4 GB as well.
2. Can I upgrade my device software to 4.3 and will that allow me to access the remaining capacity?
Once you've done that, then try formatting the card again.
