Does the 8GB model come with external SD card ? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Because mine did...
I bought the 8GB model and there was an 8GB micro SD card included in the box :S
Is this normal or was i "lucky" ?
The phone reports
external sd: 7.60
Internal sd: 5.78
Internal phone: 1.60
The box and my receipt say 8GB samsung galaxy S! I bought it from an O2 Shop...

No they don't come with external SD card provided.
Was this a new SGS plastic wrapped or sealed box. I wonder if it was pre-used by someone and they forgot to remove the card when they took it back.
Any content on the SD? I would not worry overly much as long as you can register the device your covered by warrantee at any rate.
The 8GB card was a bonus.

the phone looks brand new and the sd card was in a plastic case (with an micro sd to normal size sd adapter). I bought it from an official 02 store...
nice

Depends on the carrier, mine on Vodafone didn't, apparently 02 does.

Yes, this comes as standard with the o2 handset

Lucky o2 customers. D:

Lucky you. My box says 16GB, but the phone has only 8GB internal. Bought sim-free model and the box was sealed. I was happy to see the 16GB on the box and little disappointed when I have found thee truth.

I, for one am sure that Vodafone Ireland sells SGS 8gb model with a bonus 8gb microSD card at the minute. So, this means it having or not an extra microSD card depends on your Carriers actual offer.

8GB microSDHC Card - Class 4 SandDisk?

Hey i am been searching the forums for about a week. I am still not sure if the 8GB microSDHC Card - Class 4 by SandDisk will work with the AT&T Tilt. When i went to the AT&T store they said it only goes up to 4gb. Can anyone Confirm that the 8gb work with the phone or not?
Many users on this board have that particular microSD card and it works for them. I don't have one yet and I'm still at 512mb But As soon as I get 50 dollars, I'm getting it for sure.
I use a 8GB microsd from san disk, no problem... guys at the AT&T store dunno wtf they are talkin about, the tilt is capable of handeling 32gb, but those cards arent out yet... go ahead and get the 8gb card....
i got mine off of ebay $55 shipped
Thanx alot for the info now i can buy the card and no that it will work

Free SD Card when registering your phone??

Hi foks,
I've just read , that when you get your X1 and register it. You will get a free SDHC 4GB card with the movie Hancoc in it.
Is this true?? I don't know if the phone has been released.
I hear from many ppl that it has been released... so.....
My dad is now in Dubai, and planning to get one for me.
There's one store (NetOnNet) here in Sweden which states that X1 will be shipped with a 4GB memory card. So I guess it's true for some stores. I've also seen X1 bundled with the movie Hancock.
The X1 always come with an 4gb micro SDHC card. The first x thousands come with Hancock on the memmory card.. don't remember how many they said.
However, not all stores have versions with Hancock on. I didn't get Hancock on mine but there is a trailer for the new Bond movie on all phones.

I know, i've been there once.
It's better than Vegas!!!
I asked this question to SE reps on a live chat today.
All comes with 4GB memory card. First ones also comes with additional 1GB card with Hancock on it
So there should not be a video playback bug like the Kaiser??
I just received a card by mail. It is 4gb with Hancock movie and couple of trailers. Quality is amazing. Movie is only ~350MB. Some soft to auto play it is also on the card. Neat thing.
Of course I have allready 8GB so I figured I will copy this movie to my card. But, of course it is protected so it will not work on the other card (some .mo extension). Trailers are also protected, yep, this is something I do not get.
For me it is a fail. I would use this 4GB card if I wouldn not have to wait two weeks for it.
BTW: T-mobile NL.
My X1 didn't come with any SD card.
Do we need to register on the website with IMEI number in order to get the SD card?
Edit: I bought my X1 from handtec.
I was one of the first to get the X1 from my local Vodafone store and asked about any extras or SD cards but they said there isn't one.
Can any-one actually confirm if there is one given when you register phone - PLEASE

Mine is from UK with o2. I got a 4gb sdhc card with the bond trailers.
That is sooooo uncool My X1 also didn't come with an microSD card. How can we get them

[Q] Question: Can we upgrade our SGS mem as HTC HD7???

I just saw an amazing tutorial from xda-developers how to upgrade HTC HD7's memory from 8GB to 32GB. I have SGS I9000 8GB version. THe only one I can get from Finland where I am studying now. I cannot help to think can we do it with our SGS? Does anyone know what kind of memory is used by SGS? Thanks in advance!
Dude all you need to do is buy a MicroSD card and insert into the slot.
Thank you for replying! I was aware of that. However from Finland I can only get 16G microSD. Andwhen I begin to fill flacs into the card. It's getting full easily. So I was wondering if I could upgrade the internel SD card as well?

Even though I am awaiting answer as well for this (if the internal SD is changeable) . Are you sure for example ebay doesnt deliver to Finland ?
And for real ? Only 16GB in a country like Finland?
Ebay not good for memory cards. Too many fakes. Find a reputable website and order. I use mymemory uk, I don't know if they ship international but I can't believe for a second that 16GB is the maximum micro sdhc card you can get online in Finland. I use a 16GB one, the 32GB still a little expensive for me.

Even if it were changeable, would you want to risk voiding the warranty on your phone? You'd be better off paying a bounty to hack the USB port to be able to accept a USB memory stick..
BIG THANKS to ALL are giving me good advices!

cheap 32 gb card for xperia play

Dont know if its been posted but heres a cheap 32 gb card for xperia play-
http://www.mymemory.co.uk/SDHC/Integral/Integral-32GB-SD-Card-(SDHC)---Class-4
so who wants it get it lol its pretty cheap
Sure, you try shoving a full sized sd in the micro sd slot.
Even though that is obviously an SD card, that site has by far the cheapest cards in the last few months.
They had a Sandisk 32GB MicroSD class 4 for £44.99 the other month, which is the cheapest genuine card from a trusted retailer I have seen.
oh crap ma bad sorry about dat forgive me
i Recommend buying this... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/San-disk-...AsAccessories_MemoryCards&hash=item336b041119
if i was you i wouldnt buy a cheap Micro SD card as i done this before and i was shipped a fake card with really bad tranfers speeds...
Teku
For anyone in the US looking
$44.95 based on the reviews sounds like the real deal:
http://www.amazon.com/Sandisk-Micro...E4/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1315841102&sr=8-10
In the uk i go to CEX and buy a second hand one at a pretty good price
you also get a years guarantee

fake 16gb sd?

I started a thread in general forum,but maybe here I can receive more help.I bought this SD card and tested with SD tool,it s a bit slower then expected,so i would like to know if it s fake.I post the link to the discussion,so you can find a screenshot of sdtool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21344564#post21344564
Are you able to fill up the entire card with data?
Never buy SD cards from ebay, especially if they are from a low rated or a Chinese seller as they will always be fake and lower size then advertised.
Only buy them from high rated sellers.
I bought it from an italian topseller in ebay.The auction was for a samsung class 6,so it s not my fault.I mailed the seller,and he offered me a replace for an official samsung with logo printed on.
The fake card is a real 16gb card,but the speed is not so great.I want the original one for the 10 year warranty,and for security of my data
