I don't use the external Gapps method anymore. I find that using m2sd with options rmount, dalvik cache, and swap is the best. This way you have all your apps on the SD card where you only need fast read speeds. You move the dalvik cache back to NAND where write speed is important. And lastly SWAP will prolonge the life of your phone's NAND, albeit at the expense of your SD card. But SD cards are easily replaced, the NAND isnt.
Also, make sure you have a decent SD card. The one that comes with the N1 won't work well since it is a low class (I think onlyclass 4?). Get a class 10, it's worth the money. Best of luck!

If I understand correctly:
260MB system for JB/Gapps
sd-ext for everything else
What microsd card are you using? Does it make much diff between SanDisk Class 10 (16GB) and ADATA class 6 8G (current) ?
Thanks!

That's right, though not **all** Gapps go to /system/ some of them are treated as regular apps and just go to /sd-ext/ Just use the recommended hboot settings that texasice suggests and you should be fine.

I'm currently using an UHS class 1. This is a step above a standard class 10 sdcard which some may consider to be a waste of money. But I bought the UHS class 1 card because I found one for the same price as standard class 10 cards so I figured I mine as well. It doesn't hurt to have an over rated sdcard. This is the one I got for about $25 (32 GB is the max our N1 can handle).

From my understanding, there is no set way to classify sdcards so in some instances different classes of sdcards might be equivalent. That being said I cannot say for sure how your card compares other than the obvious difference in storage capacity. Since I upgraded to a UHS class 1 from class 4 I have seen a huge difference tho! You should consider upgrading if your performance is really that bad. Or just upgrade your phone

Hello Everyone,
I plan to root and install jacxhero1.7r2 onto my g1 which hasn't been modded at all. All I have is the sdcard that was in it. (1gb) I see people with sdcards saying the class of it. Does it matter? Can I use my 1gb card and still run hero the best possible with three partition thingy on it? Does the class of it matter? Please let me know.
Thank You
The better the class, the quicker it can access the card(read/write) I suggest a bigger card than a 1gb, you will fill that up quite quickly. The higher the number, the faster it works
yeah a 8 gig class 6 is like...what most people accept as the preffered sd card. but i have a 4 gig class 4 and am running jachero whatever just fine. you just need to partition it
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...
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!
Hi, does anyone know wich of the 32 gb Micro SD Ext supports four partitions.
Now I have a Sandisk 16 GB, which I easily can create a partition Ext 4, but it is too small for my HTC volume. (this is for my programs on the partition Ext 4 Andriod, I think that it's my internal memory). I had purschadan unknown brand (I think a Chinese) from 32 gb on E-bay, but I could not make a Ext 4 partition.
Any ideas of a brand ...
Thanks
Grtz Seki
brand shouldnt be a factor, sounds like you got a duff card is all
Nobody....
I have read up on this a long time ago 8 months now about cards like that if you still have time to return or complain then you should. they write on the cards saying 32gb but when you put it in a phone or pc I think it was said it says 32gb but only fills up way less or not even close so trying to partitioning it won't work. good luck I had a sandisk 16gb class 4 from radio shack and used it in my EVO 4g to ext partition to ext 4 and worked great never used to much memory tho not sure how much you plan to use

Dude, EVERY sd card you buy from ebay and seller is from China you are going to get a fake card. They may say 32GB but they are fake and in reality are 1,2,4 GB. They will even display as 32GB via windows but if you put it through a disc scanner it will start to get errors around teh real end of disc. You could even start to fill it up with movies etc and you will get error at point of card filling its real capacity.
I'm Using SanDisk..

Brand doesn't matter, ANY GENUINE card will do.
BTW: You've bought fake card.
BTW2: Accordingly to some tests (some of them available on xda) one of the best, stable cards are SanDisks up to (optimally) class 6. Kingston is much slower in random read tests and class 10 has much higher power consumption (and surprisingly is quite often slower than class 6 when used with HD2).

Thx for the tip....
I see one member here modded his Note to take a normal sized SD card.... is there any advantage using the full-sized cards to the mini ones?
Go with MicroSD. There is no difference between them, except the fact that SD card won't fit and moddying the phone to force it in - is generally not a very good idea.
Well, there are three differences:
1) Size: Regular SDXC available to 128 GB, mSDXC 64 GB only
2) Speed: Regular SDXC up to class16, mSDXC class6
3) Pricing: Regular SDXC are cheaper than mSDXC
It's your choice...I choose the 64 GB mSDXC from SanDisk (cos no modification is necessary)
Regards
so i take it that for the same class of card there is no performance benefit of full size SD over micro..
although his set-up does allow hot-swapping...not sure if there are any benefits to that though.

I thought microSDXC went up to class10. At least thats what I think I have
I read somewhere there is no added benefit on using over class 10 sd card on a mobile phone. Actually Class 6 is more than enough according to some benchmarks. Sorry I cannot quote right now.

Would like to ask whether any significant performance different between Class 4 and Class 6 card. Last I check the price of a 32 class 4 / class 6 scandisk is nearly 40% price premium.

So I'm assuming you got the 64GB micro SD card to work in the Note? Anything special you need to do to get it to work? I know I had to format the card first in my Evo 3D. Thanks.

@fabianfred
Yes, I did forget the hotswap possibility, cos you don't need to remove the battery.
If you need more than 59,46 GB for music, movies etc you should get a regular SDXC.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
@jeffs99
I've found the class16 at ebay, but I'm not sure if the speed is achievable.
Just google for sdxc class16 and you'll see.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
@f1nzup
Nothing special needed.
Just put it in your Note and format it in there.
Voila, you've got 59,46 GB to spam.
