If the phone failed to format the SD card, try to format it through your computer. Connect the phone through the USB port located at the back of the tower. You'll be prompted that the PC detected 2 USB drives, the phone and the SD card. You will see it by going to My Computer folder. From there, right click the Letter drive represents the SD drive then select Format. I hope this helps.

SIM card
I think they are same or similar. I think if it fits it will work. Might be differences in the recovery speed between photos. To access card on computer you will need an adapter.

I can't format my new micro sd card
The Samsung Alias works with microSD cards. Your 8GB card is actually a microSDHC card and will not work in devices not designed to work with them. You need to use a microSD card, 2GB or smaller.

How can i plug in my 2 gb adapters into my motherboard?
You will need a card reader. and an adaptor to fit the micro sd card into.
You usually get the sd adaptor when you buy a mini or mico sd card.
If you dont have a card reader built into your computer, you can buy one very cheap.
Micro sd adaptor here..( from $1 ) http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_10?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=micro+sd+adapter&sprefix=micro+sd+a&ih=5_2_0_0_0_1_0_0_2_1.98_298&fsc=9

My computer won't recognize my phones memory card!
Well I found that these older card readers will not read the 4g sdhc format. In your case you found a 4 gig card that can be read (your sisters) Bring your's back to the store and get an exchange for the brand your sister has, let them know this. The knowledge for them is good. They most alway accomadate just to keep the customer happy.

Cannot format memory card
The Samsung Alias can only use up to 2gb microSD cards. I had this same problem after purchasing a 12 gb card only to discover that I could not use it with this phone. Hopefully this will be fixed when they make the Alias 2.
