Hello.
I'm going to buy a memory card to X8.
So far I use the memory card of 8GB GOODRAM
I mean a professional card for developers.
I mean the best, in your opinion, the card X8.
Sorry for my English.

what is 8GB "GOODRAM"
go for a class 10 sd card.
If you want to go ahead and create some sort of dualbooting script like feherneoh did, you better buy a class 10 16GB SDCARD. However, if by "dev" you mean downloading ROMs and installing them a normal class 4 8GB SDCARD should be enough. Hope you understand.
I use a Samsung sdhc plus 8gb class 10 (model MB-MPAGA). It's a quite cheap sd with awesome performance (21 mb/s write and 24 mb/s read declared)...i reccomend this (or any class 6+) if you are going to use sd for swap
The memory card brand is one, second and more important is class of memory card. Absolutely important is 10-class, next is brand. Kingston or "no name" is sdcard to put in waste bin, no in smartphone. Samsung, Goodram, Tramscendent, or Sony. In my opinion is the best.
Sandisk isn't the best?

Hello xda community,
I am new to the forums and I really love the website
I just have a few questions about the android that I tried looking for but to no avail..
1.) I have the default 1gb microsd card on my g1 - if I upgrade that to 16gb sd card, will I notice any speed difference? Piece of sh1t.
2.) Where are text message data stored? In the SD? If so, how can I transfer it over to another SD card?
3.) Is there an Eclair ROM for g1s?
Thanks so much!
1.) It depends on which 16GB card you get. However, you most likely will see a speed increase. FYI, the best bang for your buck right now in terms of cost and speed is the 8GB Class 6 SanDisk Ultra.
By the way, I have measured the stock 1GB SD card and mine came in slightly slower than a Class 4 (@3.5MB/s) 66x (@9.7 MB/s) SDHC card. YMMV.
So, it is possible that you could actually see a speed decrease with a 16GB class 2 card.
What exactly am I looking for if my goal in mind is to increase my g1's speed?
Read/Write mbyte/sec speed?
The Size? (i.e. 8gb, 16gb)
Thanks
I was thinking about getting this:
http://www.frys.com/product/6027788?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
Sorry, every instance of the word SDHC actually means microSDHC. I thought that it was obvious, however, I really shouldn't assume. That link you gave is the wrong card. That card will not fit into your phone.
This is the one that I have:
http://www.cell-phone-accessories.com/pol-312824-tsc.html
If you really want a 16GB card, either get this:
AData - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211378
or this:
Transcend - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820208481
or this: (although I have no experience with this one)
OCZ - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227489
Thanks a lot for your advice. I ended up by an Adata c6 8gb microsd card for $27 at Fry's.
2.) Where are text message data stored? In the SD? If so, how can I transfer it over to another SD card?
I would also like to know
3.) Is there an Eclair ROM for g1s?
Yes, but not everything is working
I am waiting for one where everything works...
I am about to to replace my htc diamond, and i am still undecided between the Liquid and Legend I was leaning towards the 16gb version of the liquid (with the white case). Now I was wondering, how do the 16gb show up on the device? Is it internal memory or is it the sd?
The way I immagine it is that I have 3 different "partitions":
- Device Memory (to install apps)
- 16gb partition
- SD card
If this is true I can buy cheap a 16gb SD card and boost the space to 32gb. Also, can the 16gb be used with apps2sd, or is it only for music, pictures, etc?
Thank you very much.
AFAIK there's no internal memory on the Liquid... at least not on mine
Thanks for the answer... by reading some reviews online I figured the 2gb and the 16gb versions differ only by the SD Card which is included. So the question changes now: What kind of SD Card is included? Because the 16gb version here in italy is 60euros more than the 2gb version. But I can buy a 32gb class 4 SD card for about 80euros.
If the SD card included is class for or lower I would go with the 2GB version and buy a separate 32GB card. Could you guys tell me the specs of the SD card (Brand and Class), maybe together with the country where you bought the phone, so we can see if there are any differences?
Thank you very much
depends on your needs... still i think most of the manufacturers include class 2 or 4 microsdhc
Hello
I got my Legend about 2 months ago, and I have a big problem with storage space...
What is the biggest sized SD card the Legend can use?
What is the type of SD card (micro, mini, etc...)
What is SD card class?
Thank you very much
microSD compliant with SD2.0 Standard (aka microSDHC)
The biggest size available currently is 32GB.
I don't know if even more is possible with microSDHC or if bigger cards will only be possible with SD3.0 (aka SDXC) but that question is not relevant as you can't buy any greater then 32GB yet.
The Class of the SDCard is a measurement for guaranteed minimum speed in random read/write.
The Class does not provide any information about real-world speed or max speed.
For your mobile phone the class is a pretty useless criterion as you don't need any guaranteed minimum speeds but good overall speeds ESPECIALLY sequential.
The guaranteed minimum speed is important for HD Video Cameras for example where you write data all the time at a given speed (resolution).
thanks.
but I DO need class with high speed because I want to use Data2Ext...
Don't pick uSD card based on class !! class tels you MB/s for sequential write only... you need a card that is overall fast, I had 16GB class 10 Kingston and data2ext was just horrible!
Now I'm with class 4 Sandisk mobile ultra and it is in fact faster in every test I ran...
So read reviews before you buy
ye but that is exactly why im asking...
well then, I recommend sandisk mobile ultra as I have it and it is OK, there are probably faster cards...just see the small files read / write speeds in reviews those are of greatest importance
i purchased a kingston 8GB class 4 which crapped out. android kept reported sdcard unexpectedly removed. tried all sorts (formatting in windows, android, quick, long, etc).
RMA replacement did exactly the same, so i'm guessing kingston class 4's are best avoided.
If I recall correctly I have a 16GB microSDHC Class 4 card. After applying data2ext with this card, my Quadrant scores hit around 1500, which is crazy.
This is where I found my card: http://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-16G...P06K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1298984123&sr=8-1
I personally recommend this card.
witch is better class 4 or class 6?

Did you by any chance go to HTC's website to read about the phone? It has the full specs listed..
Sent from my Legend using XDA App

class 6 is better , but class 10 is even better
I've got a Sandisk Ultra Mobile 16gb SDHC which works fine in the Legend. Make sure you format it with the phone to stop it being dismounted, well known issue and the fix
Hi,
I want to buy a micro SD : I have seen that the maximum storage for micro sd was of 16 GB.
Someone has already tested a 32 GB storage card?
If yes, Does it work correctly?
Thanks for your answer.
it's works i don't now how becouse i just test my friends card.
Sorry for my English
Maybe it's was on android 1.6 (max 16), but 2.1 should be supported with 32GB
well, i got my X8 only a week ago, it's my first smartphone.
seriously, what do you guys want to store with 32GB card?
i can't imagine what to store in such space, i figure one could make a portable toilet out of it and still got some more space.
Movies (avi, wmv, etc). HD photos from professional photocameras, hi fi music like wav. Download a lot of stuff with torrent client and else. 32 GB really need for me.

Question was not what I do with all that storage.
Is it possible to have 32GB card in X8 I think that it support up to 16GB ??
I couldn't tell you, because I've bought an 16GB card (class10).
With the price of a 32 GB microSD, I could not fool me.
I think that 32GB is more money then the Phone
You are able to mount 32GB card I've just checked it out but the results are horrible - 500 MB of freshly copied music on the card, and now it is showed as "damaged" on the notification bar. I wouldn't recommend it to you.

I think the X8 will also work extrem slow with a sd card of 16 or 32gb
And with 32Gb class10? The read/write speed is biggest?
I believe that is not a question of card's speed, but more of device's ability to comprehend such a huge space. Just like with enormous hard drives in older computers.
ok.. maybe this out of topic..
what brand of SD card with class 6 or 10??
n where to buy??
im just unable to find it in my country.
in my opinion, 32gb can be handle with very well if this SD card are good.
i mean good SDHC
i found it in my country, designed for camcorder and etc..
but price also different
i just want 8gb with class 10..
currently i have 8gb, no class
my quadrant almost same with droid x, so i think if i have good SD card i can overlap droid x.
where to buy???
32 gb for a phone is a lot of capacity
Im using 32gb sandisk class 2 memory card in my galaxy s initially when it was 2.1 it was slow. But now after 2.2 update its okay. Only startup and shut down process Will take long time. class doesn't matter on phone it matters only when data is to be transferred from pc to phone . Max transfer speed Will be 2mbps in class 2.

there's a lot of good brand to choose actually, personally i'm using transcend.
what city are you in? in Bandung, you can try BEC. i bought mine from kaskus though, it has almost everything we look for
class.. hmm IMO it's unnecessary to use such a high class card. class 6 (6MB/s) is sufficient enough, because android apps are usually not really big, only 10-12 MB at most so no need for such a large data transfer rate.
Has anyone had good success with the 32Gb card? I dont want to buy one if it's just gonna not work properly.
thanks
Won't work
Chances are, it wouldn't work.
The Xperia X8 currently only supports up to 16GB of memory. If you go higher than that you would experience problems. You might be able to make it work for a few minutes then it might not be able to read the mem card.
Hopefully, in future updates we could use 32GB cards.
I've searched around, no walk-arounds on this yet. If I were you, I'd stick with 16GB. That's a lot of storage!
I want to change my 2gb SD card for an 8 or 16 gb one. Which one should I get? Should I go for a class 4 or 6, or is class 2 enough?
Get class 6. Class 6 SD cards are fast and if you're intrested, you may use multiboot with that card.
Well better card class better performance on sd...such like apps2sd and if u use a multiboot..but i think there is no specfial need for extra high speed card...
well at least 6th card class u would need!
personally i have 8gb 10 class card atm!
I don't think I can easily find class 8+ cards here. What about this one? I can't find which class it is?: http://www.sandisk.com/products/mobile-memory-products/sandisk-microsdhc
