Hi All,
I have a 512 MiniSD and i want to upgrade. So i wonder What is the maximum capacity Mini SD I can use smoothly with my Wizard. I don't want something to slow the device or make it freeze.
thanks
my 2gb miniSD works fine...£33 too
i am using a 2 gig and it works good
thanks for the reply, do you recomend any specific brand or they are all the same
ATP are supposed to be good--waterproof and claim to be faster than other miniSD cards. I read a few posts here about them a few months ago and bought one--haven't had any problems. I don't have another miniSD card to compare the read/write speed, and I don't make a habit of giving my Wizard a bath so I can't vouch for the waterproofness either...
i bought a sandisk 2 gb. works great for me.
Has anyone try a 4gb or more? I'm thinking of buying a 4gb sd.

There are no 4GB miniSDs yet; right now, the biggest available is 2GB.

dude there is NO 4gb CARDS for minisd. If so....link me and prove me wrong.
4Gb miniSD being advertised...but are reg SD...
I ordered and received one....after a pretty easy search and finding several.....I was unsure when ordered and, sure enough, now have yet another regular SD card for one of the cameras, etc.
I'm sure they are coming out - and possibly some actually already have them, but at $115 a shot for a flakey, poorly advertised seller (mine was a previously good company, CellMem.com - which I had bought other things from over the last few years - but they sent a regular SD.) (No, I hate sending things back, so I just can store even more sitlls on my camcorder or digicam I don't use enough....)
Hell, none of the physical stores even had the 2Gb mini when I looked and only started having the 2Gb full sized a month back.
Give it six months and we'll be swimming in 150X 4Gb mini's for $80....and the rumors *then* will be the coming 250X 8 or 16....assuming that's feasible, of course - six months later if not....
Now I need to go get a 2Gb and a handful of cheapy 128's, 256's or 512's for ROM backup and "'xperimentin'".....and replace this DINOSAUR 1Gb I have from Circuit City (which you couldn't get 18 months ago... ) )
OEM Brand 2gig MiniSD here works great too and at $34, works real good. 4gigs comming soon I am sure.
Just wish the developers of WM5 software made better use of the storage.
Transcend 2GB (80x / SLC) works great just out of the box (no format needed)!
Same Transcend 512MB (80x / SLC)...

See? There ya are! The price is incredible too - $45ish
bought singly (much less than price for 1Gb in even cheaper stores).....things change so fast....even the mfg doesn't list those or even the 2Gb!
http://www.adata.com.tw/adata_en/product_detail.php?ProductNo=106
....notice they also didn't even change the labels on the package all the way - hope it isn't a "Photoshop New Offering" hehehe - the pic still shows 60X, not 150X...
Has anyone used these guys before themselves? The names are so familiar with so many of these...
I guess I'll give one of these a try - maybe throw in one of their cheapy 4Gb ipodoids too.....
....why oh WHY! couldn't I have just stuck with buying cars and guns and parts and accessories for those! - now back into electronics!!!!

Dang, someone just got told.
Hello xda-users,
I would like to buy a microSD card for my HTC Tattoo,
although i noticed in the market that there are maaaaaaany
microSD cards available without any differences.. (except the capacity)
What i noticed and i was curious about is that when
i tried to bought a microSD from a store here in my neighbour
i looked that a microSD 4GB costs about 15 $ and a microSD 4GB [ULTRA]
costs about 25 $ so i wondered what the difference could it be?
I searched the web [yep, google is my best pal] and i saw that there
were only differences in the data writing/reading speed, and not so
dramatically changes.. just a lil bit. They 've told me that if i wanted
the microSD for my mobile i souldn't get the ULTRA one, but if i wanted
for my camera i should.
So.. what my question is.. If i choose the ULTRA one, will my mobile be "faster" ?
EDIT: i forgot to tell you that i use my mobile mainly as music player
and surfing the web [not for camera usage]
All your opinions are accepted.
Friendly,
Menios
SPEED
I think you shout get the normal one its only necessary if you use it to copy and past many files. i don't think that it give you more speed in your mobile

your english is just fine m8.
Thanks for your advice
I would say - get normal one!
Its 15$ and 25$, difference is almoust twice!
Ok, if u got planty of money, you can take the ultra, I dont know what are actully difference in speed, but mostly u would be using "reading" speed, and when u open ur music player, it reads music files, indexes them etc. It would be slightly faster at reading, but I dont think the difference would be 10$ worth
Post the speeds for boath, if u found them.
Id take ultra if it would be 18$ compared to 15$ normal
P.S. 4GB only? I got 8GB, and Im feeling that I might be to short later I might want to put some movie or something in it
P.P.S. as it would be for camera - you would want all the speed, as when u take pic, u want it to be writen in memory as fast as possible to take another shot, so it might be reason why it would be better for cameras.

Hahaha, thank you for your advice, but as it's the double price, i'll pay 20 $ to take a 16 gb one
Thanks again my friend
20$ to take 16GB ONE? WTF???
I payd... let me count, 18Lats, which is 1Lat=2$, so 36$ for my 8GB one
Ofc I could buy in e-bay, but then I should w8 for a month for it to come... didnt want to wait, so ****s in my country cost alot...
Anyway, no problem

Does your 16GB card work in you Tattoo.
I´ve try two 16GB card and no one of this work in my Tattoo.
They works for a while then I get a message that it´s some error with the card and need to format the card.
The cards works fine in my daugthers Huawei phone so it´s not any wrong with the card exept that it´s not working in my Tattoo
the diference is only in the speed. Usually, these types of cards (ultra) are used in video recorder cams, that need an high rec speed.
So, u should by a normal one
sorry about my bad english
So, which one did u buy? Just wondering...
Today I bought sdhc (what difference sd and sdhc?) 16gb card, and it works fine, But before...
I had 8gb card sdhc and it woks fine until yesterday... Tattoo was running on Froyo, then suddenly hangs on, pulling out battery, starting again... and card is unreadable, my photocam says that it locked(adapter isn't locked), Tattoo don't see it... What the problems with it, does any one know?
Sent from my HTC Tattoo using XDA Premium App
Not sure about the ULTRA label, but when i bought i looked at the class of the micro SD card.
Class 2: minimum sustained Data Transfer Speed of 2MB/sec
Class 4: minimum sustained Data Transfer Speed of 4MB/sec
Class 6: minimum sustained Data Transfer Speed of 6MB/sec
Just clarify:
SD cards can not be bigger than 2GB and are slower compared to SDHC which stands for Secure Digital High Capacity.
Having a large capacity and high transfer speed when using apps2sd seemed like a good idea.
I'm not completely sure, how big is the affect how having faster card, but to be on the safe side I went for Transcend 8 GB Class 6 microSDHC.
£10 from UK ebay.

and the reason is so i can switch from using the card in my digital camera, my HTC shift and the android phone. and not to have to keep switching multiple cards.. really a lot of reasons.

Well it sounds like someone here has money to burn.
In theory it should work... however I haven't heard of anyone using one before so I cannot say for certain. Give it a try and let us know either way.
Do Not bother getting it. A friend of mine working for FCC center. I snagged one to try out. Man it does not work with any format. Seems like this is hardware of the phone that can not handle it. Friend got technician to look at it, they are all confused why not.
All newer phone from Nexus One, will all takes in the card and read and writes it. But just slow.
Plus $350 is a rip off. The MSRP price for a 64GB SDXC is on $210 to authorized premier resellers.

$210 for MSRP? I told him it cost $110. He must be day dreaming aging while I was lecturing him. Anyway it is best to wait for compatibility check from phone manufacturing for best hardware compatibility.

A few of the phone specs I've seen has said up to 32gb but from my experience they're pretty unreliable at updating those figures as newer and bigger cards get released, that's why I started this thread asking for confirmation.
I'm going to sell off my HTC MAGIC vodafone branded and buy , either samsung galaxy 9000 or the new HTC Desire HD (european EVO4G). I just can't decide yet.
Not all new phones are ready for sdxc memory cards. They are both hardware and software prerequisite.
I would do some research on what phone u want to get. But at same time galaxy s sux, sdxc. Do not work with the card.
Warning spoiler : galaxy s pro will be compatible with sdxc. The phone will only be exclusive in Korea.

What he said. You can't just pop an SDXC card on an SDHC-compatible device. It's like saying you're wearing size 14 shoes because your size 11 foot fits inside those shoes.
It wont work because (AFAIK) Android doesnt contain drivers for SDXC. If you insert a SDXC card into your Android device, it will problably just treat it as a SDHC card.

That's a regular SD c ard, not a micro format, there are no known 64gb micro SDXC cards in existence. Also a 32gb, regular SDHC card is still 65$ US - and that's class 4, I can't begin to imagine how much a 64gb SDXC is going to cost.
Also how reliable will it be, there's limits to this stuff when managing the size of flash chips.
Now it exist
http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/26/kingmax-flaunts-worlds-first-64gb-microsd-card/
I'm pretty sure it will work - mine works in my SGSI, SGSII, Sensation, and Transformer.
http://www.androidnz.net/2011/09/sandisk-64gb-micro-sdxc-cards-confirmed.html
Now that the cards are proven to exist
And ignoring the question of cost, which is not a technical concern
There are a few objective questions that might merit answers, such as:
1-Are the micro-SDHC and micro-SDXC physical formats, the card sizes and contacts, the same or not? Web posts say that they are and are not, apparently half of those posts are in error and it seems that if the sdxc cards are working in sdhc phones--they are?
2-Is a specific file system driver, in the phone's OS distribution, needed? If so, what?
3-Is a specific file system format of the sdxc card itself required? If so, what? (Presumably requiring a format on a computer that provides for that option if the phone doesn't.)
And then of course, a list of phones actually known and confirmed to work with the precious beasts.
Personally, yes, I think 64GB on the removeable card is ridiculous. But then again, it will cost less than an iPod Classic and it will let me take an extensive music collection "everywhere". Which my own 32GB card won't right now.
There's a reason the iPhone4S has a 64GB memory option now. For some of us, the extra memory will be gladly put to good and economical use. If our phones support it.
At present no phone fully supports microsdxc, even if it reads the card, you wont get the full size or speed from a phone, even the fastest phone on the market cannot take full advantage of the speed of present card, and most phones accepts microsdhc at class 2-10, but you only get low transfer rate, I have the new 16GB uhs1 microsdhc from both toshiba (class 10) and sandisk (class 6), both have verys low speed just like that of class 2-4 when used in mobile phones, so uhs 1 microsdhc is out of the question in mobile phone.
I also seen available the sandisk 64GB microsdxc available in hong kong, not really expensive when compared to the USA, it's approximate USD150, will get one next month to try out.
That's way better than the US prices. Please DO let us know how it works out.
Personally, I don't care about not having full xc speed, etc., I'd be happy just to double the storage capacity. Sandisk US has no interest in the matter, all they know is that Moto "only supports" 32GB. Which they really don't understand means only that no one has tested 64GB sdxc in the phone, so no one has anything to say about it.

the guy in post 15 has tried it on the samsung.
hi kms108, I see you own an Xperia Ray. Did you try the 64gb sd in the Ray? Can you share with us if it works or not? While Googling I only find people speculating that since it works on the Play, it should work on the Ray too, but I hope you can confirm this for real..
Would this card work with the international Galaxy Note GT-N7000?
I plan on buying a Note pretty soon, but I am confused as to which memory cards are compatible.
I am not yet allowed to paste outside links, but the card can be found on eBay India as Sandisk 32GB Mobile Ultra microSDHC. The part number is SDSDQY-032G-U46A.
Hello,
The 32gb microsd card works perfectly on the Note. You can even go bigger if you want to.
In that case (64gb for example) you'll have an error message. Just ignore and reformat the card
Inside the note and you'll see that your 64gb microsd works and shows something around 59gb
Of space.
Have fun with your Note! I'm new coming from iPhone and I'm so glad with my new Note

Yes buddy it should work just fine unless really bad luck due to manufacturing defect.. Any hardware has minor risk of being a lemon so do look for one with warranty since most of these cards atleast come with year warranty.. 32 should be good enough but if got budget might consider 64 gb one if they have as well! Enjoy noting will surely make you Samsung fan..

Memory Card related queries
Hello Friends.
Firstly, I sincerely apologise to the OP if he/she feels I have hijacked his/her thread.
Since I have a very basic set of queries, it would not suffice to create a thread and clutter the sub-forum.
I have a SanDisk 16GB microSDHC Class 4 memory card which I purchased to use with my Galaxy Note.
Is it a standard practice to format the memory card before using it the first time?
Also, in the event the memory card does need formatting at some point in its life span, should it be formatted on the device (Galaxy Note) or a computer?
What file system is recommended?
I thank you for having constant patience with my naive behaviour.
To op, I have the 32gb version of that card and it works flawlessly. I had a 16gb class 10 sandisk in it previously but had occasional issues where the card would need reformatting haven't had any problems with this one at all. I would recommend buying from reputable dealer, lot of fakes around.
please hit thanks if i helped
there hasn't been to much talk about micro sd..
Ill probably be purchasing the sandisk ultra ush1 most likely 64 gigs
Amazon link to the card
amazon has it now for 59.51.. price trackers have seen it as low as 43.49 on amazon around october 22nd

I got a 64gb from bb last week for 49.99 and will probably never even come close to filling it bit it's better to have more space than not enough

Personally, I'm using a 32GB and it's doing me just fine. I wanted to get a 64GB after seeing that deal, but couldn't justify it at that price. Whenever 64GB cards normalize down to about $40 or less, I might upgrade, but for now a 32GB card is fine for me. I only paid $20 for my 32GB card and it works quite well.
I had a 32 gig that I was using in my Note 1, but I ran out of space, so bought the 64 gig a couple of weeks ago. When you have a few different ROMs, titanium backups, nandroid backups, movies and mp3s on there, it adds up pretty quickly.

a class 2 card will do just fine for 99% users...it's gonna suck if someone is putting tons of data on it at one time but the acutal functionality of it will be juuuuuust fine...
i, ordered this thing http://dx.com/p/sd-to-microsd-transflash-card-converter-module-27001 and will attempt to use a 128GB SD card in my Note II...i performed a rather crude experiment to see if it could fit under the battery cover...it buldges a tiny bit but it's hardly noticeable...
worst case scenario i'll have a 128 gig sd card laying around...LOL
Do they even make class 2 64gb cards?
I think the cheapest I've seen are class 6 at that capacity.

Well, the risk depends on how much your data is worth to you.
I don't see the point in trying to save money by getting "cheap" memory.
If it fails, you're f&cked.
There's always a chance of memory failing, but the chance is higher if it's a cheap copy.
Cheap batteries, cases, adaptors etc. are a "try it, and if it breaks, has a short life span, or doesn't work properly, I'll buy another one" situation.
If your SD card fails and you haven't copied your photos, or whatever, to another location, buying another SD card won't be much use.

Seller seems to have decent reviews though. Not sure if I should take the risk? For $15.88 it cant be too much of a risk right?

I agree with everyone so far. There are a lot of fakes being sold..ultimately it's your decision. If u do decide though..if it's legit u can check the serial number with sandisk..if that's good then ur lucky..and that seller probably is selling stolen goods..
I got mine from bb and it was $55 including tax. I know radio shack had them at $39.99 once..and I'm waiting for it again..u never know..and that's a fair price

Well I got this one:

and its worth every penny... If you want some speed, get the best one in a box so yo really know that you have not been ripped off.
If you could afford SGN2 I suppose you can afford an OEM Micro SDXC
I recommend getting a class 10 64 gigabyte microSD card and partitioning it into 2 partitions, one for your files and one for your apps. Then use Link2SD and you can automatically install apps on the second partition. This way you will worry less about filling up your 16 gigabyte internal storage. This is what I was doing on my Galaxy S3.

Well, the risk depends on how much your data is worth to you.
I don't see the point in trying to save money by getting "cheap" memory.
If it fails, you're f&cked.
There's always a chance of memory failing, but the chance is higher if it's a cheap copy.
Cheap batteries, cases, adaptors etc. are a "try it, and if it breaks, has a short life span, or doesn't work properly, I'll buy another one" situation.
If your SD card fails and you haven't copied your photos, or whatever, to another location, buying another SD card won't be much use.

I would buy a cheap memory card. I have mines in sync for dropbox so at worse I would lose the pictures from that past hour. Mines is a cheap Microcenter 32GB class 10. They offered me same day replacement if it fails.
I would never even consider getting a cheap battery. If it breaks or doesn't work properly it could take my phone with it. I had some cheap batteries before for the old epic 4g. Both of the batteries started to develop cracks around the body despite not being damage. That could have caused problems if I hadn't notice. Cheap cases could scratch your phone and sometimes the expensive one could too but I don't hear about it as often as I do with the cheap ones.
Adapters really depends on what they are for. I heard, don't know for a fact, that some of the off brand MHL adapters for our device don't always work and when they do they aren't as good as doing 1 to 1 as the Samsung adapter are. I would love to see someone test out the different ones to see if there is actually a difference. With monster HDMI and normal HDMI there might actually be a difference but as long as there is enough data it will form the same signal which means they both should work the same despite the difference in the amount of data transferred. But with audio, cables can make a world of a difference.

Thanks on the Link, wasn't a 100% on all the class speeds and what not and this helped. I just popped in my old 8gb card from my previous phone and was looking to grab a 64Gb card and it looks that it will be a class10.
Just got my Sandisk 64GB Ultra. Got it from newegg and works great so far. Tested it with H2W to make sure it was really 60GB
