Hi,
I have just sold my vr innovators edition for note 4.
I have a question regarding the oculus software / sd card.
I see a lot of people on here are asking for the software as they have lost it.
I tried a clean sd card in my phone and when I put it in vr it prompted me with the oculus start up where I could download apps games etc.
My question is if I could do this with a brand new card with no software why are people still asking for software? I just want to know if I'm missing something as I don't want to sell the vr and the new owner has issues with card.
Also if I have to give the buyers my old card with the original oculus is there a way to make sure They can't use my account?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I'm new to Android and SGS is my first android phone. I got it a week ago and love it, not just the phone but also the OS compare to what iphone offers. so please excuse if I ask something silly.
Poping in a 8GB sdcard for and for the first time I see that Android / SGS does media scanning on the internal SD and external card (which I've never seen with Iphone). SGS informed me to format the external SD and I did, but for the next couple boots, it asked me the same thing again. However to me 16GB is more than what I need so I decided to remove the external to save some boot time and not to see the annoying formatting notification.
Kies lets me update to JM3, and then I found XDA and this forum custom roms. Tempting and immediately go straight from JM3 to JM5 using ODIN and Hackalair (update.zip), apply 1clicklagfix by Ryanz.
My first experience with the custom room was fast, very impressive but I figure out there's no Google voice search with Hackalair as he's removed most of the bloatwares from the origin package. Trying the external SD again to see if it's any better. It's sorta worse, the phone seem not to recognize the external SD card anymore, and then luckier after couple boots, the phone notifies me to format the card and never be able to complete the task.
I found Samset 1.9f, download it and update.zip from Hackalair to Samset, I got 2082 quadrant score, not sure if it's fast but compare to the chart it shows me, this is twice faster than the original SGS score. Bad thing, still no luck with the external SD card and no Samsung AP app (not sure if samset removed it)
So my question is this the phone hardware problem? Knowing that I have no problem using this card on my Blackberry. I've got the phone and have no issue to format & reinstall the ROM, is there anyway to do a proper format on the internal SD card and install the custom rom with google voice + Samsung AP app (i need these 2) and wonder if doing so will help me fix the thing.
This is off topic a little but I get used to Iphone's app that vibrate the phone when the outgoing call picked up. Can we have something similar with SGS? I also want to find an app that allow me to map a hotkey to compose SMS (i can press volume up on iphone to have a new sms compose screeen). Beside this, I found Android is more like a PC to me than iphone in many ways.
Thanks for the help guys.
Hello,
I have a Samsung galaxy note with 30GB internal space, when I try moving apps to the built in internal space it says there is no SD card on your phone.
I then purchased another SD card of 30GB, The Samsung galaxy note then recognize it, but when I move apps to the external drive the phone keeps rebooting itself, which is a nightmare. When I remove the SD card from the phone the phone is functioning well. Thought SD card was the problem purchased another card same problem.
My question is, why am I not able to move apps to the built in memory card on Galaxy note, why is galaxy note not able to recognize the built in SD card.
My other question is why is the phone rebooting itself when apps are moved to external drive.
This is a very serious bug and Samsung should find a solution to it.
Its a shame though that the Samsung galaxy note has this problems
How can this problem be fixed?
What ROM / Kernel are you using? I've moved apps to SD without issue.
I have had problems with a cheap 32GB card (I think it is really a 16GB and misreports as 32GB) - as another poster here said - buy cheap and you buy twice!
Do you have another microSD you can use? Even a 4GB or so - that way you can test again.
How can I move apps to Built in SD Drive of 32GB on Samsung Galaxy Galaxy Note
Galaxy GT-N7000, android version 2.3.6, Baseband version N7000XXXLB2, Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-N7000XXLC1-CL1003701 [email protected] #2,
I’ve used 3 different SD cards one 15G and two 32GB samsung Electronics MICROSDHC 32GB(CLASS 10) all with same problem of phone rebooting when apps are moved to SD card. I also have 2 galaxy note one 15GB and the other 32GB, both have same problem, this cannot be a coincidence. ( I have about over 400 apps)
If I am able to move the apps to the built in drive of 32GB this could solve the problem. How can I move apps to the built in SD card of 32GB, is there any app that can do this? Apps2SD cannot recognize the built in Card. I also contacted the developer of apps2SD regarding this problem, he said it’s a Samsung galaxy note BUG that I should contact manufacturer and also referred me to XDA for quick solution.
It’s a night mare when such an expensive phone starts rebooting itself and heating up the phone
400 apps sounds like a lot to me. Are you sure one of them is not getting in the way?
Do you have access to Titanium backup and Better Battery Stats? These will help you find if there are any programs that are hogging processor or running in the background, use TB to freeze the app then see if your phone is back to normal.
Hello there,
me again, i fear i do not have much luck with my note....
this happened to me with 2 different 32 GB sd cards (same type though) now. First time i thought the card itself was the problem, but now i doubt it.
When i first inserted the card, everything was fine, i copied several gb of music on it without problem, could access al files from phone and via Windows.
Played some files with MortPlayer the other day, and after the next restart of the device (had to shutdown for flight) it suddenly complained that i had removed the card while the system was running.
This does not happen at all with my old 8 GB sd, though, it's running fine whatever i do.
Cannot access the card anymore from phone, camera or PC (Win7 x64).
Runnning german stock rom ICS 4.0.3 rooted on the phone.
Did this ever happen to anyone else and/or is there i way to get that card running again? It does not show up under Windows at all anymore, not even as unformatted or so.
Any help or hints appreciated, thanks in advance.
Try paragon partition manager to format the sd card then see if it works if it does reformat on the phone. I read somewhere that you could format to ntfs and back to fat 32 to get it recognised

thanks for the quick answer.
the problem is (don't have paragon where i am atm, but tried with Acronis Disk Director & HP USB Repair Tool and i guess it would be the same with paragon?) that i simply cannot see the device anymore via such tools, same is for the windows disk/storage management.
So reformatting it seems not to be an option here, was more or less hoping that someone knows another "trick" how to get the thing back to life - and of course a reason why my Note might have "destroyed" the 2 cards.
did you buy these SD cards new ? if so was the seller a reputable one ? there are a lot of fake / dodgy Sd cards on the market nowadays
Do you use a card reader via a usb port ? if so try a different port, like one on the back, direct to the PC's motherboard, finally if that fails, try someone else's PC.
If all the above fail I guess the SD is completely dead. I dont know how the Note could have caused this unless the card was a fake, People are using 64GB SD's with no issues at all.
both were brand new cards, bought directly from Amazon.
Could of course be possible that they both were from a bad batch... Gonna ask amazon if there have been any issues with that product so far, could not find bad ratings for it though when i checked.
I'll try to get hands hands on another cardreader, left for vacations yesterday and just have my Netbook with internal USB based card reader, the Galaxy Note and a Nikon D7000 with me, which all do not recognize it, but the backup 8 gb sd card .
thanks for your time
S.
Amazon are friendly, If you havent had the cards long just explain to them the situation and im sure they will refund / replace.
You could be right about a 'bad batch' unfortunately with all the technology we have, it still happens
Hope you get it sorted :good: keep us posted !!!
Samsung NOTE - dead 32gb SD card
first - apologies - I am not an XDA developer (I am a retired architect... and a noob)
This thread came up when I searched "Samsung note destroys SD card". I will simply report my experience in the hope that others may find it useful.
I get a Samsung NOTE G-N7000 in late August & buy a 32Gb SD card from amazon (specifically getting a Samsung one to avoid any incompatibility)
I load about 7gb of music tracks onto it from my PC; it works perfectly& gives me good quality music playback until a week ago; then all playback form the card becomes impossible with an "unrecognised file type" message. I format the card in the phone. I dismount it. I slot itn to my PC, where "my computer" says that it has zero gb capacity, & will not format it. I mount it in my old Blackberry Curve which says it has 29.2 gb capacity - I format it - & the curve says it now has 1.2 gb capacity. The PC still says it has no capacity.
The only possible cause I cant hink of it is that I seem to remember there had just been an Android software uprgrade (to 4..0.3.?)
I find Samsung phone help, ring them, and get very badly run around - several times I am given a phone number for "Samsung SD cards" which is actually the UK "Orange" help number. I have rung three or four numbers at least threet imes each before I get through to Samsung SD cards help. They ask for photos of both sides of the micro SD card - having (I presume) established that it is a genuine Samsung product they e-mail me a product return form & code.
I have sent the card off to Florijn in the Netherlands.... I am not holding my breath.
It has not been a good week for memory...
- Outlook Express started to compact messages as the computer was closing down (so I have no e-mails before 15th Nov 2012)
- this SD card died on me
- & I forgot to go to a folk music dinner &music session that I had booked a week previously
I begin th think alzheimers might be a welcome release....
Your "watch this noob" video... perhaps one of the funniest videos I have seen for a while ... and certainly the most annoying... andyou expect "thanks"?
Well thats something really unusual. Because i am using my note for a year now and bought a 16 gb card with it. I onky encountered 3 errors where my n7000 stopped Reading the memory saying bad memory and what i did was to take it out of the slot and then reinsert it again and It worked fine.
The only advice i give to everyone. Dont plug ur phone to the pc or any other device always keep ur phone wireless with other devices so thst the malware cant replicate to ur storage. I use kies air or bluetooth exchange in cases there is large data i cooy it to the usb and then plug that usb to my phone and it works ok.

I have several retired Windows Phone devices from family and friends, screen cracked, battery inflated, etc. Now most of their owners have moved on, and the parts don't even look useful anymore, except for one part: the internal storage. I want to harvest the SD cards from a mix of Windows Phone 7 / Windows Phone 8 / 8.1 devices.
I know that with Windows Phone 7, the file system was LOCKED in a way that not many card readers / devices even recognized. Taking an internal SD card out of a damaged Windows Phone 7 device gives a perfectly normal looking 16GB class 4 microSD card... that can not be accessed, erased, deleted, nuked, formatted, or used, by anything. I've tried countless friends phones, tablets, computers, readers, UBCD, DBAN, utilities, tools, you name it. I have also looked high and low, and have never seen one of the fabled Nokia devices in the wild that can gently format these locked-up microSD cards.
My question for this forum is does Windows Phone 8 also lock the internal SD card filesystem in the same way that WP7 did? Can I extract and harvest the internal 32GB SD cards of some Lumia 920s for use in other devices? I know that 32GB microSD cards are cheap, but that's not the point. I just don't like to see these 32 GB cards go to waste. I'm hoping that I can just take a hammer to my Lumia 920s and pry out the SD card, format it with a card reader, then drop it into my 1520, my tablet, my wife's Galaxy Note 2, etc for extra storage.
A random thought I had was: could it possibly help if I subscribe my company email to the Lumia 920 before smashing it? My company's policy enforces full-disk encryption. I'm curious if the full-disk encryption will help the card be "formattable" as I definitely won't care about the data that's contained on the card. I don't have any dev-unlocked windows phones, and have never sideloaded anything, but I would be open to it if I could get these SD cards to be useable. Some of the WP8 devices turn on and could possibly be manipulated, some can not.
Any help is appreciated!
P.S. - I also have a stash of 16GB SD cards from WP7 phones that I have almost given up on using, but if someone has knowledge about wiping those, I would love to hear it. I have no working WP7 phones, so the solution can't be from any app sideloading.
wp 7 cards can be formatted with a few old Nokias : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242071
wp8 cards aren't looked at all , you can just pull them out and use ( not even the need to format them.

Just to provide an update on this, in case anyone else gets a similar idea. So far I've taken apart a Verizon HTC 8X, and a Nokia Lumia 920, and neither of them had internal MicroSD cards. Both had eMMC implementations, which mean they are not removable. My Nokia Lumia 920 had a Toshiba THGBM5G8A4JBAIM which is a 32GB eMMC chip.
The lesson here is that microSD cards are cheap, and harvesting them from old phones is not worth it!
I had a lot of trouble with the Verizon Moto Z Force, so they gave me a refurbished Galaxy Note 5. Since there's no SD card slot, I'd opted for going for some OTG readers, but now that I have a battery case, I'd have to remove it each time since I cannot both charge and use an OTG device at the moment (someone told me this is dependent on the kernel?).
I had asked this question elsewhere, and someone told me to try here.
A sort of solution I came to is the idea of throwing everything on a cloud storage account. Having the saves sync across all my devices while having all the roms stored in a folder that doesn't, and just pulling a few roms onto my phone's storage at a time.
This seems great for games from much older systems such as the SNES, but not as practical for something like games coming from the PSP.
My question is if any of you know of any better solutions, or if you just have suggestions. Opinions are welcome. Keep in mind that I have a large battery case over my phone, in case there's any ideas about adding more accessories to the phone. So they may be a little less than feasible.
To clarify, I'd like to know any ideas as far as what I have: A Samsung Galaxy Note 5 with a battery case. I am not looking to change those two things. I am unable to upgrade and the current battery case I own has already cost me a lot for me already. Thanks in advance.
What's wrong with using the phone's internal storage? It works just like an sdcard, only without the ability to remove it physically.
It takes up a lot of space. Space that, when full, cannot be expanded through a micro sd card slot. I have space already taken up from files from my previous phone, 32GB is not a lot of space.
