[Q] Question: Can we upgrade our SGS mem as HTC HD7??? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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!

that's a self punishing way of action... sorry, but I couldn't endulge in that one.
Bought from ebay, arrived from new zealand for 33€ total expense, tested the whole 14.84GB real capacity with linux and dd, plus copying back to harddisk after that, and was fine, 7.5MB/s write, 7MB/s read with internal SD reader of my laptop and SD adapter.
what is the name of the store??

Don't remember... just search "microsd 16gb" and check the cheapest one to sell them.
Or, look at the feedbacks left by my nick on ebay
have a 16gb microsd class 6 from a-data, love it. not sure if waiting for 32gb will be worth it, since we still don't know what the prices will be or when it will be available.

It's still certain they will be significantly more than twice the 16gb ones.
32gb SD are out since a while, and they still have outrageous prices, so go figure what will happen with microsd's

It's obviously loading the songs list... the builtin mp3 is just catchy eyecandy with very small configurability, I use mortplayer for my audio playback needs.
Obviously as well, if you ask HTC's support, they're gonna tell you that it's your MP3's fault, and that their software is faultless

fake micro sd cards
Everybody must be aware of the fake cards out in the market. I just bought a 16Gb microsd for 20bugs on ebay and after some time I realized it was only able to save up to 2Gb. Paypal put me a headache that I couldnt get my money back...

According to the site:
Read speed 2MB/s
Write speed 2MB/s
So I wouldn't be sure about it being class 6.

32gb microsdhc format problem!!! Help!!!

I have a 32GB microsdhc card and when I format it with the Nexus it says there is a damaged sd card. When I put it in my computer, the nexus formatted the card to 2GBs and when I format it with my computer its back to 32GB.
This is a real 32GB card, I purchased it at Bestbuy and it worked perfectly in my Nokia.
Does the Nexus support this size card????
Do I have to update anything?? I'm running CM 5.8 or something like that. Should I update to CM6 then try it?
Please!! This really sucks!!
try to download a software to test it see if there's any hidden problems.
I heard that HD Tune can test SD cards (sounds like it is for hard disks =D)
http://www.hdtune.com/
hope it helps.
Good luck
since when did bestbuy start selling 32 GB microsdhc?

I want to know this too, their website has no mention of it and the clerk laughed at me when i asked if they had any. (he didn't know 32gb cards existed yet)
yea seriously... far as i know they only have 16gig but hey if they are i know where im going when i get paid
32gb cards have been out for a while, they have just been really expensive until recently.
i know then been out for awhile but no store really carried them or had any, you can get a 16gig sd micro for 40 so im guess you get the 32 for 80 which is still high in my book, but still cool to get one...
as said before not really been seen or had many in stock for stores, maybe we see more soon
I actually picked up one from the verizon vendors for really cheap...They run about $200 retail but I got it for a half off.
I got it working when I updated to CM6. I was probably on a older version or something. Not sure but it worked. If you want to pick up a 32GB card, ebay is cheap, I wouldn't pick up anything under $100 since its probably fake.
Thanks.

[Q] 32GB MicroSDHC cards

Hey guys i am looking for a good deal on 32gb microsdhc cards. I dont know if i should trust the ones on ebay because i know theres many fakes. Last time i ordered the msproduo cards and they were fake... said 8gb but were only 4gb... so i got a refund on those. Also if anyone knows some good deals on 16gb micro m2.
i recommend to buy at shop
Get a Sandisk card, those are usually authentic and offer great value and performance.
If you're looking for a card to put into your HTC Windows Phone, make sure you get a card with one of the following two model numbers:
SDSDQM-032G-B35
SDSDQM-032G-J35A (will be out for sale sometime this month)
A 32GB microSD card will cost you about 70-90 bucks including shipping. If you see an offer for a lot less, stay away from it.
Yea just bought this to put into my HD7. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=250752727418
SDSDQM-032G-J35A (will be out for sale sometime this month) <--- Thats class 4 and it will not work in HD7 right?

Sandisk told me it's for sale in Japan since January 2011 (this month) but so far I haven't seen it for sale anywhere and noone is importing it from there either. They assure me that card will definitely work, but I have not run a test on it since I can't get one.

Cheap, GENUINE, 32gb SD Card.

no, it's because the seller relisted the item, but he's sold a lot of 'em.
When i bought it, he'd sold at least 12.
You can thank me later
Too bad the shipping charges are very high for International orders!
Not worth it with 22$ shipping, sadly. If shipping was 10 bucks I would... Then again, Class 6 or bust for me!
yeah, didn't know shipping was so high for international, as i paid the 8$ it says there.
A pity, it's a great SD card, so if you're in the US, buy it
has anyone bought from the following seller?

i have seen way too many fake cards and am trying to be cautious. the placement of class 4 logo made me a little suspicious.

I got 1x16GB and 1X32GB both genuine, and very quick shipping (4-5 days to Belgium). The 32GB already 1 month working very smooth in my Trophy.
Unfortunately every large memory card I have purchased of Ebay has been fake, either 2gb reworked to show as a 32gb but still only holds 2gb or a cheap nasty card classed as Sandisk or such like, Im not saying these are fake but I would use Paypal where available, this at least gives you some protection.

Agreed. Looking at the charge and it doesn't make it worth it at all.
Too bad.. i don understand the language...
