This card came with my phone. I am assuming it is made by Samsung, but I have also bought SD cards from Walmart that I swap cards from time to time with no issues.
I think any Micro SD card should work as there are only 3 companies making this type of card.

To enable NTFS and FAT32 on your USB Flash Memory

Right click My Computer and select Manage.

Open the Device Manager and find your USB drive under the Disk Drives heading.

Right click the drive and select Properties.

Choose Policies tab and select the "Optimize for performance" option.

Click OK.

Open My Computer.

Select Format on the flash drive.

Choose NTFS or FAT32 in the File System dropdown box.

Device Formatting is completed.

If you card is one of the fake one it is not going to support FAT32

Good luck
