Micro sd Works on windows mobile phone but not on android.... Help Please

My friend's micro sd 32GB class 10 which he had just recently purchased went corrupt due to a lost of connection when copying the file over to his micro sd which was in the phone (Evo 4G). Instantly a message appeared on the Evo 4G saying micro sd damaged. So i Reformatted it using the phone. After formatting i couldn't mount it. It instantly said micro sd card is safe to remove. So I got a card reader and when I opened it up in my PC it couldn't read it so i ran a check disk(it Fixed a lot of orphaned files) and then i reformatted it. and after that it worked perfect in my PC no problem. But as soon as I stuck it in the phone it said preparing SD (checking card for errors) than comes the message micro SD is damaged so i formatted it again but it's the same thing right after format, it can't mount. I've also tried formatting it in recovery mode where it successfully mounts and formats, after I've freshly formatted it in the PC and made sure it didn't boot into android. But when I boot it in android the same stuff happens all over again Meaning it checks/prepare's the micro than say's it's damage i format it and than after format i can't mount it I've also tried it on a inspire 4g no difference. Than I tried it on my dad's htc hd2 windows mobile 6.5 and success it works. But why not on the android phones. Both android are rooted and running cyangeon rom. I have googled for answers but I find none. I due notice something that might be the problem(I'm not a computer genius so I might be wrong) but when I run a check disk at the end it says boot sector cannot be written?

If there is a thread like this I'm sorry for posting this I've searched around and everybody's got a different problem than me. I'm New:)
 
I gotta be honest man ... ANY issues with ANY SD card and they go right in the trash. I'm just NOT willing to lose data or have issues down the road because I won't put out for another card.

My advice? See if the manufacturer will replace it. If they won't (screaming and wailing might help), consider a replacement before entrusting it with any worthy data.
