Try taking out your storage card and slapping it in a card reader. Connect the reader to your computer and see if you can add/delete files that way. (copy your contents to your computer first to be safe). If adding/deleting doesn't work, try formatting your card with windows. If that doesn't work, then I would say your SD card is hosed. I have had a few SD cards blow out on me that way also so I feel your pain!

if you got your card off ebay, it could be a counterfeit card. They tend to falsely report the size in the index.

I never buy electronics on ebay. I know you can sometimes get things alot cheaper and there are legitimate people on ebay, but the risk isn't worth it to save a few bucks.

Sliverr, I know it's a pain, but ya gotta find out!

my card slowly works itself out of the phone under the cover. Make sure its seated properly. Mine usually just disapears and I freak cuz I have so many apps I should prob back that up. But it just needs pushed back in.
