will this work with my tilt?

since my activesync will not install on my computer, ive been looking for alternate methods to get music and movies on my tilt. i have a 1gig microsd right now and i just need an adapter for the sd slot on my computer. can someone tell me if the adapter that comes with http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/SanDisk-128MB-TransFlash-Memory-SDQCJP128A10/sem/rpsm/oid/100001/catOid/-16201/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do
will work with my card? im just not sure what the difference between transflash and microsd is.

Try this instead.

A couple dollars more but you get the right adapter.

so the circuit city one wont work? its just that im completely broke right now and i had a gift card for cc. i know 8 dollars is really affordable, but thats like a lot for me right now.

why not just use wm5storage, with the softick card export drivers. it allows you to use ur device as a usb mass storage device

For all practical purposes TransFlash and MicroSD are the same. However, with the free shipping that 1GB card from Supermediastore makes much more sense. (I've bought a bunch of stuff from them, they're very reliable.)
edit: I see now that you're only looking for the adapter. The CC one should work fine.

An SD adapter will work. You can just go get it and try it out and if for some reason it doesnt work..take it back to CC.

thanks for all the help guys. im gonna try that wm5storage first and if that doesnt work ill buy the cc adapter. thanks!

Softick Card Export
I use Softick Card Export and it works great. It basically makes your phone a microSD card reader and shows up as a removable device in windows. It's not free but $15 isn't bad.

Beware of this card! I have the 2GB version and it is SLOW (in the phone and with the adapter). It is a class 2 = minimum 2mb/s transfers.
Go with something like this or this that is much faster. We're talking ~9-12mb/s

Does your TD2 comes with a memory card?

Hey guys,
Just got my TD2 today though haven't got much time to play with it yet.
I've noticed that the device's microSD card slot is empty, so just wondering if you all haven't got the memory card come with your device or I'm just purely bad luck.
Btw, got it from Handtec and the plastic wrapping of the phone was unopened.

AFAIK, nobody got a memory card, and all web advertising does not mention any included memory card for the TD2. So, at least for the moment, no memory card included, which is inline with the minimal low cost packaging HTC is using for this model. They tried to keep price low, meaning basic packaging, no pouch, and no included memory card.
Your package was not opened, don't worry ;-)

Cheers mate, much appriciated.

Deffo no mem card in UK spec HTC sim free version...
Shame its missing the the Asian supplied case to...

I'm glad they didn't really, since invariably they would have included a smaller one (1 or 2gb), and that would have sat in a drawer doing nothing whilst I paid for an 8 or 16gb card.

Agreed, purchased a 8 GB scandisk card, should do the job for a while..

The official package sold in my country (Malaysia) comes with a complimentary 4 gig memory card, htc pouch, and USB speakers.

I've been looking around for one of these (rather than the unwieldy leather things that mean you can no longer get it into your pocket), but I haven't seen a decent one yet. I wonder if this is purchasable separately. Can you post a photo of it? Thanks.

I dont have a picture of it, but it looks exactly like the Diamond 1 pouch.

Mini SD Corrupt?

Hey i recently purchased a 16GB Mini SD. As soon as i got it i formatted it to FAT32 then tried loading Android onto it. Went to file explorer on my phone and the SD didnt show up. So i plugged my phone back into the comp (i dont have an SD reader on my comp) and it showed the SD's storage to have 707GB! Yes 707GB! lol Unless this is a super magic card, something is wrong lol.
I Have tried formatting it again but under windows the only options are exFAT and NTFS. Im not to sure what exFAT is?
Any light shed on this is appreciated

how much did you pay?
i guess its one of these cheaper ones which are only shown with a higher capacity but are in reality a 2gb card or something like that.
DN41

$40 Australian dollars. Thing is when i first put in the phone it read 16GB but when i tried putting Android on it it wasnt read by the phone. And now its 707GB, i wish it was really haha

try to format it as ntfs or exfat and back to fat32...
does this help?
DN41

I tried formatting to NTFS and a window pops up 'windows was unable to complete the format'
And thats all hmmm.. maybe a dodgy card?

Did you not mean microSD? I'd love to see how you can fit a miniSD (larger than microSD) into the microSD slot of HD2.
Where did you purchase your card from, mate? If the answer is eBay then there's a good chance it's fake.

I bought a 32GB micro SD (Kingston) off ebay... It showed up as a 32GB sd card on my laptop, and tried to work on my phone, but every time would try to run android I had problems... I thought I was just a noob doing something wrong, and honestly wasn't gettin a lot of help from others on the forum. Tried new builds, new ROMs, nothing.. Bought a new 8GB card, Perfect! Everything works! The questionable cards seem to lead to questionable results. I would buy one from a brick & morter store and try it. If it works, great, if not, take it back. Good luck!

...and I beg you could probably read/write 32GB of data on your laptop.
However, a common hack used by fake cards is to only store indexes of files beyond its real capacity on the card and store the actual data on your hard disk. Once you take the card to other host (i.e. HD2) then it would all fall apart...

As far as i know its a legitimate card. Came fully sealed in the original packaging. And yes it is a microSD, im sure you know what i mean.
Question i ask now is it possible to bring back a corrupt card to life. I downloaded this tool to re-format but no luck. It says 'this format is not recognized' i even read somewhere else putting it in the freezer might give it a kick start haha

You must got a good deal if you bought locally then. www.staticice.com.au tells me the cheapest 16GB microSD is $41 plus delivery and it's only class 2.

Depends. IF you bought a fake it could be well packed as real. Then again, I don't know where you bought yours from.

I replaced my hd2 SD card 3 times all of them are SanDisk 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB.
And every time it works for 2 weeks or 3 then it get corrupted so I’m sick of buying SD cards for this device.
I have no idea why it's getting corrupted even the tech support says my device is ok no problems found.
So I decided to save my money and wait for HTC Windows Phone 7

i had nothing but problems with android on the hd2 and micro sd's all are genuine cards too, managed to recover the files and format the cards luckily otherwise i'd be buying two new micro sd cards, leave android for android devices lol, windows phone 7 out soon no doubt there'll be some new roms out for us happy HD2 owners then.....

I have the same prblm with the 2gb and 4gb microsds. The 2gb one got corrupted till the extent I can't format it nor recover the files from it.
The same happened to the 4gb except that the format on my hd2 seems to be working but not helping much, it's taking too much time and yet the storage card folder still didn't appear.
The formatting prgms on my computer gave me errors when i tried formatting the microsd. So in the end, the microsd is corrupted badly as the first one.
I realized that it been a while since your last post, so any luck in fixing ur prblm?

Hey ppl's, this has just happened to me a second time today. I happend once before when I was traveling. Though I think I have quite possibly found a link. While I was traveling i was useing the Win mobile app for facebook to upload photos (which i hardly use) Then today I was using it (randomly) again and shortly after the micro SD card was unreadable. Could it be something to do with the app / the way it creates multiple subfolders to cache photos from facebook profiles?

I just bought a kingston 32gb class 6 micro sdhc but when ever i put it in my hd2 it just freezes up and as soon as I remove the card it works fine again.At first i though that it was a fake so I:
1)performed multiple tests,
2)reformated a 1000 times,
3)even putting 20gb of data just to make sure.
Turns out that it is authentic and it works perfectly on my girlfriend's htc BalckStone it also worked when I installed NAND (which i later removed due to insufficient memory).Ive been searching for days, I think its a windows mobile issue, any tips??

[Q] 32gb Card help

What homer.web said. I had a 32GB Sandisk card ready and waiting for my HD7, but I tried living with the inbuilt 16GB, found that I could very easily, and returned the 32GB card to Amazon.
Trust us, you don't need 32GB. Just use the phone and you'll see what we mean.

Have you already ran out of free space? I am just trying to find out, what is the reason, that drives you to dismantle your phone, void your warranty and spend cuple hundreds of bucks for the SD Card. I just don't get it... As you said, lol...

Yeh, I have 26gb of music, I dont want to have to sift through and decide what I want, I want all of it.
And it you dont have to void to warrenty to do it, so why not.

Well, I have about 50GB of music and I have bought 160GB iPod to have everything with me in my BMW with iPod connector. Its for nothing. I have foud myself listen only to a fraction of the music. And it just slows down the iDrive control and makes it difficult to find something. So with the WP7 I was not lazy and picked up just the selection of my favorite music and synchronized it with the HD7. Its easy and if I want to add something I just drag and drop it on the phone icon.
As Jim Colleman said: Just use your phone, and time will show, if its necessary to do it...

actually, if you have to send your phone in, it will void the warranty unless you put the stock card back in. That means opening your phone twice, which doubles the chance of breaking something.
To the OP: I haven't read a single story of someone successfully using a kingston card in a hd7.

Some people dont want to carry a seperate iPod, why do you need to say something everytime someone wants to upgrade the memory, he didnt ask why he shouldnt do it.
It can be done, and when it works its fine and you have more space for videos and music, why is this a bad thing, there are no draw backs to everyday usage if it works. Let people get on with doing it.

[Q] Want to purchase a pre-loaded Rooted Sandisk SD card

I have very limited computer abilities and want to use CM7 when my Nook Color arrives. I want to purchase a Sandisk SD card that is already programmed with CM 7 (unless there is a better version available) and is "overclocked" and all I have to do is put it in and turn on the NC.. I need to know if anyone can recommend someone who sells the proper classed card and "no brainer" directions. I have waited several months to save the money for the NC and want to be running as efficiently as possible.
PS- I did try to find the answer on here before I typed this and could not get through the massive amount of info on here.. This forum is wonderful and thanks to all who are so willing to help those of us that are struggling a bit..
Thank you ahead of time.
Michelle

Im a kid so I can't sell mine and I looked around and couldn't find any. I think your best bet is to set asid your fears and start learning the world of uSD cards.

Doesn't get an easier than this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
The worst that can happen is you mess up and have to reformat the SD and start again.
Also, I found it easier to do gapps at the same time as the CM7 install. After CM7 boots just touch the 4 corners, starting in the upper left and go clockwise, to exit the setup wizard, setup your wifi and then add your google account.

There are such cards available for sale at other sites (and based on work of xda people), but if you've saved up to buy the NC, you know that money doesn't grow on trees. I think your best bet is to use the link in post #3 here. First buy a SanDisk class 2 or 4 (at most) 2, 4 or 8G micro sd card. The brand and class are important, but GB size is not, although smaller ones are very cheap now. I got an 8G at amazon for about $10.
You can follow the steps on that link, and will probably have questions as you do. I did, and people here were very nice to answer quickly and everything went great. It's really more fun that way, and I think you'll do fine.
Here are a couple more links that I found very helpful, in addition to the main one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4nenR-mNo0
http://quinxy.com/2011/04/01/comple...c4-android-2-3-gingerbread-on-the-nook-color/
If you make an mistakes along the way, it's only the sd card and you can start over. Your NC system is untouched. Good luck!

The risk of buying a pre-loaded card from ebay/craiglist/etc is that you won't have had the first-hand experience of setting up CM7 under your belt. Eventually you'll want to replace/update the ROM for some reason at which point you'll need to learn the procedure anyway.
Given the strength of the NC community here, please consider trying your hand at doing it yourself. Folks here will be more than happy to help you out.
The help the process along a little bit, can you let us know what type of computer you're using and what it's running? (Mac vs Windows, Windows XP, Vista, 7, etc.)
One more tidbit, in terms of compatible sd cards, as others have already said, the Sandisk Class 2/4 microSDHC are very good for this work. Amazon, Walmart, Radio Shack, Office Depot all have these at very reasonable prices, so take your pick where to get it from. I would suggest getting an 8gb right off the bat, the 4gb feels small very quickly.

Thank you so much.. I will give it a try myself.. I have an Acer laptop running Windows 7. I appreciate all the input. I will order a Sandisk 8 MG Class 4 Micro SD card today..

Be sure to get the micro-SD to SD adapter unless your computer has a micro-SD port. Costco has 8 GB cards with adapter for a good price (they were on sale a few weeks ago).

Also make sure the SD reader/adapter is HC compatible. I have an older multi-card reader and Patriot brand micro SD to full size SD adapter and it was driving me crazy trying to figure out why I couldn't get either to get the computer to even detect a brand new Sandisk 8gb micro SDHC card.

another issue you might run into tho is that i found my laptops built in SD reader had issues and apparently others found the same thing too.. youmay have to find a friend with a component SD reader

We have a Soyo Bayone Extreme 9 in 1 media Card reader/writer combo, would that work?

Coincidentally, I also have an Acer laptop w Win7, with sd card reader slot at the front. I ordered this card: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001B1AR50. If your Acer is like mine, you do need the adapter, which often comes with micro cards, to read them. Lots of other good advice from members here.

It should work, you will still need a microSD to SD adapter (comes with a lot of microSD cards)

I have a MicroSd card and adapter from Sandisk thanks again guys..

You can do it. We all had to do it a first time too and the support here is great!
I actually ran it off of the sd card first to see if I liked it. Then I flashed it to the onboard memory.
Don't forget to register it before you flash it. After that you just use a google account for the market.
Good luck!

I appreciate all the help. I may be returning my unit due to an unexpected $2000.00 bill for some electrical work. I have to be a big girl and and wear my big girl panties..lol

This moves it up to the next level: Jack-Assery!

Technically, they are not charging for CM7 - they are charging for the SD Card and the time it takes to prepare the card, right? If so, I don't think it's such a bad thing... As long as they give credit to the CM7 team, that is!
