I bought a new SDcard (ADATA 16GB Class 6 MicroSD) I formatted it FAT32, exactly like the original 8GB card and copied all the data from the original SD card onto it. The phone won't recognize the new card at all. My computer recognizes it just fine, but when i put it in the phone, the phone does not see it at all. I've searched for an answer for two days. Any suggestions?
 
Was just looking at some settings on my phone and just thought of this. When you took out your original SD card, did you unmount it first? The Evo may not recognize any other card because all it will look for is the mounted card. If doing that doesn't work, maybe try unmounting, restart the phone, install new card, start phone again, and then mount new card.
