[Q] 128GB Micro SD issues between G3 and computer topic






Hi, so I was pretty convinced something is wrong with the phone, but now I am not sure. Figured I'd start here.

I just bought a T-Mobile LG G3:
Build: KVT49L.D85110r
Android: 4.4.2
Model: LG-D851

Windows 8.1 on computer

I bought a generic 128GB SD card off eBay to put like 90GB of music (MP3, WMA, FLAC) since the phone supposedly takes up to 128GB of external memory. With other Android phones, I'd put the card in the phone, let the phone format it, then put the card in the computer to transfer the files, then put it back in the phone with no problems. When I started having issues with the first 128GB card, I thought it was bad so I bought another one, this time a name brand. Still having the same issues.

These are the issues and the various things I have tried:

1) Put card in phone, format, unmount, put card in computer, see it is exFAT, start copying music, hours later a message says the card is corrupted.
2) Put card in phone, format, unmount, put card in computer, computer doesn't recognize format and wants to reformat it, have tried formatting as both exFAT and NTFS (quick and slow), put music files on it, put card in phone, phone says it is empty or is a format it doesn't recognize, wants to format.
3) Format card on computer first, move to phone, phone recognizes it, take it back out, start putting files on it, hours later completes, put back in phone, phone says it is a format it doesn't recognize or it says it is empty, put back in the computer, and it is corrupted.
4) Put card in phone, format, mount, connect USB to computer, computer see the SD card in the phone, start moving files that way, eventually stops because it becomes corrupted somehow.
5) Same as the previous one, but play music as it is being uploaded to make sure files are moving over and card isn't corrupted, plays music as they move over, then eventually becomes corrupted and the player can't find any music on the card.

I am sure there are variations I didn't mentioned, but I have tried just about every configuration. I suppose it is possible both 128GB cards I bought are bad, but seems unlikely. Also, I have a 32GB generic card (FAT32) with music on it that runs fine between computer and phone. Not sure where to go from here other than return the phone (certified pre-owned)... which also restarts itself randomly sometimes.

Thanks for the help!
