Delayed Write Fail? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i upgraded my microsd to a Kingston 16GB HC class 4, but i have noticed that when i transfer certain files i keep getting this message "Delayed Write Fail" so i have to transfer the files to the tab itself then copy them to the microsd, it happened when i was copying my CWR backup and today when i was transferring my music folder. I have no issues when transferring smaller files. The file sizes are as follows: CWR backup 600MB , music file 733MB. Any ideas as to why this could be happening? Is there a size restriction when transferring files?

Move from 2gb to 8gb microsdhc - How?

Finally decided to get an 8gb card to have plenty of room for all I want on my phone.
Of course, just a week or so before I got it, I did a hard-reset and cleaned up my tilt.
So I'm averse to doing it all over again with the 8gb card.
What's the best way to clone my 2gb card to put everything on the 8gb card so that my phone wouldn't even know the difference?
Most backup programs back up to the sd card or include the phone itself.
I just want to move from the 2gb card to the 8gb as seamless as possible.
EDIT: I did already try a simple copy over of the 2gb card to a PC folder and then paste to 8gb. Lots of files wouldn't transfer and some were encrypted - huge pain in the ass.
Thanks for ideas!!
hmmm well since applications dont install hidden files, you should just be able to copy/paste all the files from one to the other . . . . . make a folder on your desktop called " backup " and copy the entire 2gb card there. Then remove the 2gb, and put in the 8gb. Copy the files from the folder you just created to the 8gb card. Should be extremely painless . . . . . . .

Sorry should have indicated I already tried this. There are lots of files that don't want to copy over and it's a huge pain tracking them down.
Also have several files that indicate they are encrypted and cannot be copied over.
Thanks for your response though.
This is a simple operation, having done this myself a few weeks back.
1.Place 8gb card in phone
2. Place 2gb card in card reader in Laptop (Laptop card reader not designed to read HC cards 4gb and up)
3. Connect USB cable with Softick CardExport.
4. Copy contents across from card reader to phone. You can also copy 2gb card contents on hard drive etc.
Best bet is to unencrypt encrypted files before you do this. I do not recommend that people encrypt files. I use Password Master (freeware) to store sensitive data.
This worked like a charm for me. Hope this helps.

I did upgrade to 8gb Sandisk MicroSDHC a month ago, and it's painless for me. Just make sure you do the copying through card reader, not via activesync.
Luckily sandisk bundled a card reader. What i did is:
1. Format the 8gb with FAT32 to ensure compatibility (it came with RAW FS)
2. Copy the 2GB contents to pc
3. Copy contents back to 8GB
Just make sure you tick the 'Show Hidden and System files' option in your windows explorer first, or else there will be some files not got copied. Cheers!
Last tip: to avoid heavy file fragmentation in future, i always copy bigger and seldom changed files first, like ebooks,mp3s,movies. Then to smaller and frequently changed files like my documents content.

How do I transfer files from old SD to new SD Card

Transfering from stock 4GB to Kingston 16GB class 4. I am becoming very frustrated as this has turned into a whole day event.
What I have done. I copied all files from 4GB onto laptop. I then copied those to the 16GB. Attempted to insert and I got an SD card error on the N1 and it asked me to format. I erased all then formatted on windows (fat32) im not sure what that means but I heard it round these parts. I then copied all onto 16GB and I am still getting an error. The card will work when blank in the phone but when I copy files it shoots me the damaged SD error. Am I missing something here. Also at times during the copy paste process I get numerous errors on file transfer that I end up just skipping. Sorry, I did search but not too good due to my frustration.

Bad card if you get write errors.

Where did you buy the card? Sounds like it's bad.. If it was too cheap, it was probably not a 16G card... Although 32G is the new size to rip people off on, I'm sure there are still fake 16G's out there.
i got it on ebay for $33. They card works but the problem seems to lie when I transfer and put in the phone. If its empty it works... but when copied and pasted files back onto my 4GB I had no issues. Empty it works fine and shows 15.59GB free
thanks for the input...guess Ill return and buy an actual card from Best Buy or something unless some 1 has an reliable sight thats not too expensive.
Maybe try formatting in the phone first (with whatever format it uses) then connecting it to pc and copying files to it?

[Q] MKV Copy problem

I tried to copy 4.3GB MKV file to note's internal storage. Then I cancelled as it was not completing, now 4gb of free space has disappeared from my internal memory, but I can't find a file to delete anywhere, certainly not in the directory I was copying to. Any one had this issue before?
Try Copy it again and delete it. otherwise try formatting internal Card
reboot the phone
i doubt you will be able to copy anything voer 4gig to the internal memory
there is a some work around to copy files larger than 4gb. it involves changing sd card to ntfs format. just do a search on xda.

Transfer Interrupted: unable to move media to SD card [SOLVED]

Anyone else getting this error message?
After using this phone heavily for the past month (and loving it despite all the controversy with the bootloader, btw), I've managed to fill up my internal memory, so I decided to pop my 32 gb micro SD into the phone, but not before erasing everything and formatting the card. However, upon attempting to transfer all my pictures/video/music to the micro SD, this is what happens. Is there a fix? Or do I just have to manually do the transfer through a file browser?
Figured it out thanks to this post in the Z2 forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2775213

I had the same problem with Xperia Z
In my case the problem were a few files created by DS Photo+ third party application. The files had characters within their names (colons) that are not allowed on FAT filesystems but are allowed on Linux/Android filesystems. This is why the app was able to save them on the Internal Storage but then the phone was not able to move them to the SD Card.
The solution whas to find and delete these malformed files using file manager application. After that transfer to SD Card worked like a charm again.
For reference: list of illegal characters for FAT filesystems: \ / : * ? " < > |
Good luck.

Turns out I had some files in a separate Camera folder that had colons :, so once I renamed them, the transfer finally went through.

You can't transfer if a single file is over 4gb. That's a limitation :/

Problem Moving Files from Internal to SD

This problem recently started (maybe a month ago) where I can no longer move files from the internal storage to my SD Card.
I download a crap ton of audiobooks through various apps and such and I've always moved them to my SD Card as there is a fair amount and I like to keep my Internal Storage pretty clean. I just started receiving error messages.
My Files: Couldn't delete folder Something went wrong or
My Files: Couldn't move file Something went wrong
I've unmounted and remounted the SD Card, tried completely removing it and putting it back in. I've verified the SD card is working as expected, as I'm still listening to Audiobooks and my pictures are automatically being saved to the SD card. If I could I would have the downloads, download directly to the SD Card but I'm not able to do that. I can move files from my PC directly to my SD card.
So I'm not really sure what's going on and could use some help.
