Aura Fickle microSD detection?

[serwei]

I tried with both an 8gb and a 64mb, wouldn't work so I reformatted with FAT and FAT32 to no avail. I thought the slot was DOA...

As a last resort my wife tried her class 10 32GB card and it worked? Can't tell what's the difference, it's also FAT32 I think.

Much what I've found. Basically, I found about half of my uSD cards worked, the other half gave errors ranging from not being seen on startup then loading properly to not being seen at all. I've used the SD Association format utility to reformat some problems cards using the slow rewrite everything setting which has fixed some cards while others still are not reliable.

Sandisk and Samsung seem to be the most reliable in my experience.

If you meant a 64GB card above not the 64mb you wrote, as far as I know, Kobo ereaders do not support SDXC cards or their default exFAT file system.
