    Just for the info, next time do a low level format. The same thing happened to me when I formatted my 4gb sdhc card in the Lg Viewty. It partitioned the card to 2gb and 2gb and locked both of them so I couldn't really do anything. (not partition,nothing). I downloaded a low level format tool from hddgurus dot com and did the format and voila! next time I inserted the card it was recognised as an unpartitioned 4gb flash drive! Partitioned,formatted and now it works like it should. That tip is ONLY IF( bold to IF) it's not a hardware hack to your flash drive. If it should've been 4gb(or any size) from the beggining,then try it ;)
