FORMAT FAILED Error with Micro SD card

The error that you facing right now within your memory card and what ever problem you putted here,one of the friend of mine has also the same.

He replaced his memory card after this error but you need not worry,you should try this card again on your old phone to make sure that your memory card is working or not.

If your card is detected then you need to check the functionality on the memory means make some changes in the memory like copy some files and delete now again copy different files.The troubleshooting you need to perform and need to conduct the related test to view the functionality of memory card.

Compatibility causing error with Micro SD card

Compatibility causing error

As the Bon-Z suggested,If you tried it on your old phone and getting access to all this then you need to simply understand the compatibility causing error.

The New Phone that you bought may be not supported to use this card check the list of manuals of your newer mobile phone,The name of the card in the list would not be appeared anywhere and may be your phone can't carry the capability of this card but It should not be with new phone.

You need to contact with the manufacturer of the phone and tell him the supported memory cards or you can search it on the internet to visit the site of your manufacturer company.
