Hi guys, I recently bought a Moto G from Flipkart. After one week of use the phone has killed my sd card. My sd card no longer works and I am planning to buy a new one. I have a few questions
1) Which SD Card should I buy? Are class 10 cards supported? Any bugs? I read somewhere that Moto G has compatibility issues with Samsung Evo microsd cards. Is that true?
2) I read on a lot of online forums that Moto G LTE (1st gen) has a serious issue with sd cards. People are reporting dead sd cards or sd cards don't work on their device (especially class 10). Does Moto G suffer from this issue ?

I'm using a Transcend Class 10 32GB in my device (Also purchased from Flipkart). No issues so far. Been using it for more than a month now.
Also if you are experiencing issues with class 10, try lower classes, you won't notice that big of a difference in speeds till Class 6.

No, I was using a Class 6 card, but I read somewhere that Moto G has some issues with Class 10 cards. Btw, how much did you pay for the card? If you could provide a link, that would be very helpful

I've been hearing all this chatter about the 32gb microsd cards and that they don't work well with the Milestone and if you format one using your Milestone it'll kill it.
Is this true?
Also while we're on the subject of microsd cards - Which is better, a class 4 16gb or a class 2 32gb? Is the difference in speed noticeable while using the phone?
Bumping becaus I really need a new microsd card
I have noted that everywhere I see Droid 3's specs I see text: "with memory card, storage is expandable up to 32GB."
Is this correct? Did this phone support only max. 16GB cards?

The SDcard slot supports a 32GB micro SD. I have the 32GB that came with my Tbolt in mine.
using 32gb in mine too.
Anybody have suggestions for a good high-class 32gb microSD card to purchase? Currently have a 16gb class-2 from my Original Droid so I'm definitely looking to upgrade.
Was looking at this ADATA one on NewEgg. Model #AUSDH32GCL10-RA1. Any ideas? Thanks!

Heard something about Class 10 incompatibilities on another forum. Google before you buy.

What do you mean by "Class 10 incompatibilities"?
Would the suggestion be to go with a Class 6 until the 10s are better?

I'm using Sandisk 32G class4, works great
Anyone has the problem with scandisk class 4 16gb msd card in your 2X?
mine is rooted with CM7.1 and before and after i upgrade to 7.1
constantly having problem with the sd card
either is not present when physically in the slot or it cannot be read.
does 2X has any problem of using 16gb msd card?
i usually have to eject and insert back the sd card in order to solve the problem.
I have the same problem (i'm running Miui)
Sometimes the 16 gb sd gets very hot and my phone can only see externalsd/download (not my music and other data)
welcome to the club...
maybe it is the "class"
try class more lower
like "class 2"
...
if I'm wrong tell me.
thanks
actually class 4 8gb card was alright with no problem.. just that 16gb is jinked.. my wife dell streak absolutely has no problem with her 16gb card..
I have 16Gb class 2 borrowed rom N97mini... no problems here...

I use a 32gb class 4 card, currently in Topogigi's v2.0.
My 2x doesnt read the whole card automatically at startup. I can access the media files through music and gallery app, but not via file manager. After reinserting the card though, it does read everything and theres no problem
so we have problem with 16gb class 4 sd card..
havent been able to find a class 2 16gb card to test it out..
so glad that im not alone with the 16gb class 4 issue in our O2X..
CM 7.1 with a Samsung 16GB class 10, working good.

The same card, phone (v2.2.2) and problem
Two days ago I updated it to GB, so we'll see now
i have transcend 16gb class 6, with GR5 and HP RC9 it's fine here. have you guys already trade up for your sd card?
I have transcend class 10 16GB on CM7.1 no problem yet.
I had problem with class 4 card. I think 6 is a minimum, no problem since.
Hello, I use verbatim 16gb ( class 10 ) is very good but price is not good
The Moto G (2nd Generation) specifications say that it supports MicroSD cards up to 32GB of size.
http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_moto_g_(2014)-6647.php
Does this mean I cannot use a Samsung EVO 64GB MicroSDXC and get the full capacity? Or is this 32GB size a limitation of the SDHC format, which is why the larger formats is SDXC?
I want to know if I should be fine ordering and using the full 64GB of this SD card or if I should just get a cheaper, 32GB MicroSD.
Thanks!
It wont work

32GB is the supposed max, but I've heard if you format a 64GB SD to a file system that isn't exFAT (like FAT32 or something) then it may be able to work in the Moto G. This is because exFAT requires a license from Microsoft and Motorola most likely didn't want to bother paying that fee for a budget handset.

AFAIK it will work fine with FAT32 file system.
I have 32 GB card but haven't tested yet cause it's file system is exFAT and there is data on it
I have a 64GB card in mine and everything seems OK. I let the phone format the card, which comes to around 59.03GB after formatting.

I will be picking this phone up in the morning and having seen it can use a 64GB card above (someone can verify that) then is there a recommended one that someone recommends? If not which 32GB card would be recommended to buy with this as I am not sure which brand is reliable!
I always suggest Sandisk and Samsung for flash.
Samsung is probably best for microSD. It also depend on the speed rating.

Cheers, had gone with the Sandisk one as I use their USB Sticks and never had an issue.
I bought a 128GB SanDisk Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC class 10 card from Amazon UK and it works perfectly now. The phone formatted it, so I didn't even need to do that on my PC. One word of warning: after putting 80GB of music, videos, etc on the card the mediaserver process started causing massive battery drain. To fix this, I went to settings: apps: all : media storage: clear data. After a scan (be patient, it can take a while) everything runs smoothly now. It's awesome having so much available without needing to mess around with OTG, etc.
What's the SD card file system after being formated by the phone?
TIA

I have sandisk ultra 32gb and no problems so far!!
I put my 64GB Sandisk Ultra from my Note 2 in the G 2014 and it works. Storage showed 59.46GB total and the music I have on it played fine. Sounded a lot better than my Nexus 5 with those front facing speakers.
I bought and set up the G with T-Mobile's $30 plan for an older gentleman at work who's been rocking the same flip phone for 14 years. I'm amazed with how much he's getting for $180. I think it's a great phone for his first foray into android. They sure have come a long way in a few short years. My first android was the Epic 4g and the new Moto G is a million times nicer than that was.
32 GB card not working...
Hi All
I have purchased a moto g 2 gen few days ago in India. I put my 32 GB Kingston class 4 SD card in the phone and got detected 1st time. After some time my phone started showing damaged card message. I reformatted the card in pc but still the problem was there. But when i inserted a 16GB Transcend class 4 card. It worked most of the time. It was showing the same message before but after restarting it is working ok now. I contacted motorola executive on chat, he told me only class 6 to class 12 cards are supported in moto G 2. So tried my friends Samsung ultra class 10 card, but still my phone shows bad or damaged card message. I contacted Motorola executive again and asked him if Moto G 2 have the card detection problem like moto G LTE model. But he told me Moto G 2 gen have no such problem and i should get my phone replaced. Please help me on this issue if someone knew about it. Is this a Kitkat 4.4.4 kernal problem as in Moto G LTE or my phone device may be faulty.

You should try to format your sdcard from the phone first.
I've never had any problems at all with my 64GB CL10 Samsung microsd card

Well Thanks for you reply buddy. But I found the problem, the SD card should be as primary partition. Reformatted the card with FAT32 and primary partition and it worked !!!!!!!
