[Q] How big of an SD card can I use on the Hero?

I have a Sprint CDMA HTC Hero, rooted. I currently use a 8gb SD card and was wondering if a SanDisk 16 GB Class 2 microSDHC Flash Memory Card would work in this phone?
If so, how do I go about switching the cards? I have all my apps currently installed on the SD card. A simple copy and paste everything to the new card, will that work? Thanks.

That's what im using, works great!

Well, first take the back of the phone off then you'll see the micro sd slot by your right thumb, gently push the sd card thats in there and it will come out. Then pull it out all the way, put the new one in in reverse order, but make sure its facing the same way as the other one.
To transfer the data, copy/paste the info onto the new card

[Q] switching to 32gb sd help

hi, im a phone newbie first off. I just bought a 32gb sd card to replace the 8gb HTC gave me.
Do i just copy and paste all the files on the 8gb to the fresh 32gb?
And do i need to format the 32gb sd card...or make any new files?
Thanks alot.

Hey there, I'm doing the exact same thing at the moment!
I checked and both the 8GB card and the new 32GB are partitioned with FAT32. I'm copying over exactly what was on my old one onto the new one as I'm writing and I'm expecting it to work.
I'll report back in a few minutes with a confirmation.
UPDATE:
I've successfully copied over the contents from one micro SD card to the other and can confirm that everything works fine! No special formatting needs to be done either. Transfer your data away and you should be good to go!

THanks alot for that mate, trying now.

Last week i got a new 32 GB card, and i first copy'ed all data form the old card to my PC.
Then i put the new Card in the phone and format it and then copy the data form the PC to the new Card.
After a reboot everything was just fine.

The one that came with the phone was a class 4 and the new 32GB I'm now using is a class 10. Works just fine on CM7 as well as on Virtuous Quattro

yes, of course.
you will need to buy it first.
when you got it, you may need to turn off your device (if you're using app2sd which can't unmount your sd card) or unmount sd card from the settings. then open the micro sd card door on your device and detach your current micro sd card by pushing it in. It will bounce off and you can take it off.
put your new micro sd card there and push it. when it's in, close the door.
turn on your device or mount sd card from the settings.
done.
you may need to re-partition your sd card if you are using app2sd.
how hard is that?

Are you? .. retarded?

Try to reformat your card. Make sure it's Fat32.

ur card is dead probably low quality thats why

SD Card issues.

I recently purchased a PNY 8GB SD card for my Moto G. All was well until yesterday when my phone decided it didn't want to recognize the SD card anymore. I tried a factory reset, but no luck. Any solutions? And yes, I am on Lollipop.

Did you try connecting the SD Card to the PC using a card reader? I mean did you try formatting the SD Card again from your PC and then using it on your phone?

Which probably means your SD card is damaged/dead. Get a replacement if warranty is still available.

At this point you have 3 options:
Use the phone without an SD Card.
OR
Buy another well known SD Card like SanDisk or Samsung and make sure it is not a fake chinese SD Card and use it.
OR
Sell the phone and buy another phone of your choice.
