any suggesttions?
ALSO, how big is a movie using the Nook Color presets ? (800x480) 1100Kbit?
Get this card:

It is the best card for the money.

IIRC, about 1.5GB, depending on length. Although I don't store them on the NC, I just have a web server and stream them. Only time I store any on the NC itself is if I'm going on a trip and won't have access to my home wifi. For that I have a 32 (edit, oops) 16gb class 4 which works just fine.
the class only states the lowest speed a card is rated for, it doesn't mean that it can't be faster. all the sandisk 16gig class 2 cards i've bought all are tested to run at class 6.
i don't think you'd really see a difference unless you copy large single files or run benchmarks. bunches of small files may sustain the same speed on both cards.
That said, if you can get both at the same price i'd go for the higher class rating as long as it's from a reputable manufacturer.

You can get a free MP4 streaming server from tools4movies.com. Seems to work fine for me. Just install it, start it, go to folders, add your movies folder, select all movies, then hit the little lightning bolt button at the bottom to convert them to streaming MP4s (or verify that they all already are). It's very simple which is why I like it since I don't know a damn thing about web servers.
I use DVDCatalyst to convert (from the same site), but I can't get the 'Enable streaming' option to work, so I do it separately.

Seriously, dvdcat is pretty nice. Its very easy to use, and rock solid. I've had it converting fit literally days working on some 400 hours worth of video. It also makes good use of multicore even when only doing 1 DVD. Does full length in 15 or 20 minutes on my 2.66 ghz quad core.
You can also just pick your device and it figures out the details for that device, which makes it easy for idiots like me.

I filmed an 18 minute video using my CM6 N1, and the file size is 790 MB. I am trying to share it to YouTube from Gallery but I keep getting the message "You cannot upload a video larger than 1 GB". The file is smaller 1 GB though. Any thoughts?
Let me add: I tried doing the same with a 162 MB video and I get the same message. A 20 MB video doesn't complain though.
Maybe the limit is 50 or 100MB and the text is just wrong? Seems silly a bit silly, although a 1GB movie would take quite a while to upload from your phone.

Yes, well, I wanted to upload it from my university wifi connection which has 4+ Mbit upstream. Would have been much faster than from home. Sadly I forgot to bring a cable to transfer it to my office computer, so I tried doing it on-device.
The limit is most definitely 1 GB on the main web site. Could others on here with stock Froyo, other ROMs, and/or other phones confirm whether they are bumping up against the same limitation?
the app itself i believe is limited to just 20mb (agreed pretty ****ty) don't think anyone has hacked it to allow for more. you have to use the actual site to complete the upload (is that possible on 2.2? I'm not sure)
hot chix ?
i understand the university, 790Mb, and wifi bit, but are there hawt chix involved ?
lol i'm kidding man, i've uploaded larger files (100Mb or so) via wifi directly from the nexus one, but it was plugged in to power. i believe (not certain) that it polls the battery to see if it will last long enough to upload the entire file.
try it with a file about 21Mb and see if the 20Mb hypothesis is true.
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=21 of=/mnt/sdcard/somefile.mp4
just an idea
It was definitely plugged into power when I tried.
Were there hot chicks involved? Depends on how much you like drag queens at least 15 of them were on stage for this video.

Hi,
Has anyone tried either the Lexar or Patriot 32GB microSDHC card with their Droid/Milestones?
Any issues at all?
Thanks!
Any information at all would be appreciated.
I haven't been able to find any information by searching forums.
I am running Cyanogen 6, 2.2.1, so I should be able to format the 32GB card. I'm just concerned with compatibility issues with the original Droid 1 and the Milestone.
Anyone?
Thanks!
this would be interesting for me too. im searching a 32 gb card which is workin!
yeah, would love to hear something about 32gb goodness too ^^
Yeah I'm surprised that we aren't getting more feedback with this topic.
I've found threads with 32GB cards with EVOs and Droid Xs, but, that's about it.
I think it helps if you manage to get it formatted properly, either on a desktop computer or on your device (if it supports it).
I'm tempted by the Patriot 32GB Class 10, but, some of the people on Newegg seemed to have some issues with it on a their Droid Xs.

Do you experience any subjective speed increases with the new card?
Have you run any SD Card speed tests with the card? If not, would you mind doing so and reporting back?
Just wondering if the Milestone will benefit from a class 10 card (or any card greater than class 2).
Thanks again!
i got 8.8MB/s write speed and 12.7MB/s read using antutu system review btw im also using apps2ext and cm7. I dont know by using apps2ext if the benchmark is effected. I was using a 16gb class 2 Kingston card before this and generally haven't noticed much of a speed difference but I mainly use the card for music
Edit: SD tools gets 10.6MB/s writing speed and 14.4MB/s reading speed

Hi,
Thanks for sharing your results. Those performance speeds are quite attractive!
I'm surprised that you you don't feel any subjective speed increases though. I would have thought that when accessing applications stored on your SD card, or when you initially remount your SD card and have to search through media using Gallery, that the difference would have been significant.
Although it is possible that our phones doesn't support much more than Class 2 speeds.
But, at least we know that the Lexar card is compatible with the Droid/Milestone!
Thanks very much for the information!

Class 2 is (roughly speaking) 2MB/s writing speed. Imagine you want to copy a lot of mp3's or a movie (or use it as USB dongle) with 2MB/s. unusable.

Oh sure, I understand that a faster card will make file transfers with my desktop much faster. I guess I was hoping to get more of a performance boost from my phone (ie. Apps2SD) with a faster card.
I'm not sure I'd call 2MB/S unusable for desktop file transfers. But, then again I don't change the music on my phone more than once a month. I can see it being more troublesome if you changed it more regularly. And hey, more speed is always good
Something else to consider - I have an 8GB class 2 card.
Loading angry birds seasons from my SD card = 15 seconds

Yes, that's a great point. I just don't know if the Droid/Milestone can take advantage of a microSDHC card with a higher transfer rate than Class 2.
Have you tried a faster card with your phone?
Does anyone have any comparison numbers with faster cards and application loading using Apps2SD?

With the Milestone SD card which came with the phone (I think this is a UK retail version) "OEM SD SU08G", I got these results:

Hi,
Thanks for sharing your results!
You're the first person I've heard of who is using this combination. Your speed test results are very impressive.
May I ask you to clarify your comment regarding reboots? Do you mean that if you move large files, or a large quantity of files from your PC to your Milestone, that you have been experiencing reboots? What other issues have you been experiencing?
Have you noticed any kind of speed increase?
Thanks!

In my place, there are many persons who are using this sdhc, so don't worry MS can support it.
In our experenice from our fourm, some MS work great and nothing happened.
But, some MS including my MS have the problem about reboot, app exit when you are using it, if you move a large quantity of files once a time from PC to MS.
There is also a problem from my experenice, not for all others.
My MS could not identify the SD card, or need to format the Sd card.
In this situation, the SD card repairation by some sd format app could be settle the problem, and then the card is back. The information of the repairation shows that there are some unknow link, bad sector, or error link. When I look further, I find the files that often appear above three error message are in the below folders /sdcard/LOST.DIR and /sdcard/LazyList. Thus I think these are the reason why the problem happens.
There is an interesting thing. I have fat and ext partitions in my card, but the partition of ext never has any problems. Last month, I format the fat32 by 64K formation, and it works well so far. (someone prefers 32K)
The speed increase. Yes, but not so significantly. I feel the system is more smooth. The delay when open the app is also less, but you know the speed also involve the size of memory. So, it's haven't extreme different.

But for a A2SD or Data2SD configuration in hd2, class 10 sounds to be more suitable.... ain't in?
Well, there is no such big app on android that needs 10 MB/s read/write and/or needs such big amounts of memory which would require it to pull large amounts of data from sdcard...
Class 10 cards are just waste of money since no app can utilize its full potential, hence u don't really need it that much. But if u can get your hands on one, it won't hurt to have it...
But performance wise, u wont really notice any big difference

To be honest ..
I think A , B , or C won't play SWOR very well .
You gonna need a good video card and all of these have sub par gaming cards in them .
Should be looking at a laptop with a dedicated video card (not intel on board), an i5 chip at least (i7 preferable) and at least 4 gb of ram .
This is a great site for comparing laptop video cards.

Any of those will be able to play it on low/medium settings. The game runs *very* efficiently. My rig is pretty powerful (i5 2500k OC'd to 4.2Ghz, 8GB of fast ram, GTX 560 OC'd), but I play it on max settings and still get like 80-150fps...in crowded places.
I'm confident my MBP could play this game at all medium settings, and the specs aren't amazing (i5 @ 3.0Ghz, 4GB, GTX 220)

What will you do with your sdcard?
To save music and document, a class 4 is enough. (this is what I use)
If you want to move most of your application to your sdcard get a higher class.
SanDisk make great sdcard if you don't care about money. Kingston is fine. Adata class 10 are great for the price.

This is not true! The class says something about the min performance, it says nothing about the max performance. It is possible a class 6 beats a class 10 card.
So my advice check some tests, where they compare each sd.

get a class 4.
There's a reason why most of the Windows Phone 7s uses an internal class 2 microsd card.
For writing many files onto an sdcard at the same time (lets say while using an app) it would be faster the lower the class.
But obviously a higher class would let you write a single file faster, but with a class 4 you could easily record HD video on your Optimus Black with no lag at all.
Save the money and get a class 4.
Thanks guys for ur suggestions..

Higher class = no problem till now

Sent from my heart into yours
Never heard about higher class card using more power. Unless you keep allot of apps on the sd there shouldn't be issues. The higher the class the shorter will be the response time and higher the read write speed.
As for video keeping in mind that for full HD 6Mbs is enough. Which means that with luck class 4 might be ok. Likely it won't.
I have good results with hd video class 4 on Bada phone, but my OB hiccups with class 6 ( that's still to be confirmed if it is software or hardware issue).
If price is not a issue get the highest possible 10 is about optimal for phone higher than that is overkill.

U wrote so many stupid things that I cannot respond em all, so I will respond one: the only reason why W7 phones use class 2 is that those cards are cheap as autumn leaves.
"with a class 4 you could easily record HD " compare the bitrate of full HD stream with recording performance of class 4 card !!!!!!!!!!!!
euphorcimoron - take in mind one straightforward experience which can obviuously can be seen when You start Your OB ( but some x%$#@* here are to blind to see that ): multimedia files are scanned each time You boot the phone. More files -more time, faster card- less time.
So: get the card as fast as possible: better video recording, apps installed on SD work faster, faster copying of multimedia files into Your phone by any connection ( USB,WiFi), faster booting and so on.
Is there a limit ad to what the OB can actually utilize? I didn't buy a 10 because the sales guy didn't think the phone would have the read write speeds to need that high of a class?

Depends on the bitrate bro, class 4 theoritically have 4Mbps so if your video recording has high bitrate it will slowdown the performance.
Also afaik CM7 has a bug about HD recording.
