My multi card reader (18 in 1, 3 USB hub) can't read 1GB Kingmax platinum 60x SD card properly. It was kind of on and off, 1 out of 40 times the card can be read !!! I tried a different memory stick 256MB and it worked fine straight away. Done some research on the Internet and found out that some "cheap" (got mine on Ebay for 10 quid - brandnew though) readers have problem with higher capacity card and won't read 1GB upwards. Is this true? And if so can you recommend a reader that can actually read 1GB SD card. I'm having my eyes on the Belkin 15 in 1 one.
Thanks.
I've got a card reader that won't work with XD cards larger tha 256 meg, but has no problem with 512 meg SD cards. So it's certainly possible. Don't know why though.
I suugest you ask Belkin before buying another.
FYI:
I have the cheapest USB Card Reader ever!
It costs 6 USD and works flawlessly on my 1 GB 60X Pretec SD...
I use a cheapy card reader on my 1Gb Sandisk SD, 1Gb Lexar SD and 512Mb Sandisk MS Pro Duo without problem. Maybe a faulty reader??

Hello,
I have updated my Tornado with WM6 - works great ; )))
Now I tried to use my 4GB microSD card with a miniSD card adapter in my tornado, but it doesn't find the card.
It's a 4GB microSD HC from SanDisk.
Is there a solution for this problem ? (another driver or something else)
Thanks, Newchurch
Tornado specs only support 1GB, but 2GB do work.
We are currently trying to port SDHC driver, but we have many problems, we don't even know if the card reader on the phone supports SDHC.
So you just go to wait
isnt there mini sd cards with 4 gb but without the damn HC?
like here (german ebay)
http://cgi.ebay.de/4GB-miniSD-Speic...tcZphotoQQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
why porting the other type? any advantages?
I bought a miniSD 4gb TOPRAM from eBay and it works great on my T-Mobile SDA with WM5 and WM6
Here is the same thing i bought: eBay miniSD 4gb TOPRAM
I thought all cards exceeding 2GB are SDHC ? HC = high capacity

Not necessarily - some 4G SD cards are still no-HC. Dunno about the mini/microSD cards, though - to my knowledge, there're no no-HC 4G microSD cards.
Disk2Go seems the offer microSD non-HC in 4GB fashion, at least their website says so (and the online dealers I've found offering it):
http://www.disk2go.com/xx_EN/memorycard.php?id=microsd
From what I could gather, getting a 4GB miniSD non-HC 4GB to work in a Tornado is a matter of brand and luck.
Couldn't find any reports yet about how the chances of getting a 4GB microSD non-HC to work in a Tornado using a miniSD adapter are, but I guess since it's just simple wire extension in a bigger housing (no electronics needed), I'd say it *should* work.
However, I've yet to find a 4GB microSD + miniSD adapter combo for sale. Let me know if you do!
But I doubt the speed of non HC card above 2GB
One of my friends is going to buy a Droid X and Verizon is offering a 32GB MicroSD for $100 with the purchase of a Droid X. My friend already has a 16GB MicroSd and does not want to spend any more money. He offered to get me the 32GB MicroSD from Verizon if I gave him the money. Does anyone know what's the highest capacity MicroSD supported in the Captivate? Everywhere I read it says "up to 32GB" supported which I "assume" includes the integrated 16GB.
its 32gb. it what most of all new phones capacity. it means whooping 48gb that we can have in samsung captivate. now thats alot of memory.

Could you please point me to a link where I can verify this information. I hate to waste $100. 48GB sound great, but I want to be completely sure.
I dont think you can use a 32gb. Everywhere ive read it says 16gb max is what is supported.
I think because the internal memory is actually an SD card itself, and the max sdhc standard can handle is 32. So 16 internal and 16 microsd = 32 -> full

Look under "SD card and phone storage" and it clearly has an "internal SD card" as well as external
which is why i mentioned the above
pdadb.net says "microSD, microSDHC, TransFlash
Supports High Capacity (SD 2.0/HC) memory cards with capacity of up to 32GB"
they could be wrong though. id get a 16 just in case. the proce on the 32 is retarded high for now.
I have a 32GB SanDisk card in my Captivate.
I bought it yesterday from Verizon's website for $99 including free next day shipping.
The captivate fully supports the SDHC format, thus it supports adding cards up to 32 gigs. Should be the same for any SDHC compliant device. The only exception to this are a hand-full of devices that support 4gig and smaller SDHC cards via ugly hacks.
On a side note, it's redundant to say " supports SDHC up to 32 gigs", since there will never be a SDHC card >32 gigs, but that's advertising for you

I have a 32 gb card now, and the internal of 16. Both show up at their correct capacities, and when I fill them all the data is accessible.
Ah, it's too bad that ALL the prerelease materials state the maximum SD size as 16 GB. I would have purchased a 32 gig if I had known.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
its 32gb
(too short )
All Galaxy S devices can support external SD cards up to 32gb, that is excluding the internal storage. I have a 32gb card in mine, which I will never ever fill up.
Samsung's site, FYI, currently specifies 32GB support for the microSD card slot:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-I897ZKAATT-features
If you got $200 to spare you can buy a 64gb sdxc card and see if it works. I personally don't need that much space, but i can use that much money
The only time it wasnt recommended to use a 32G was with a MiUi rom but
i think that issue is fixed anyway
SDXC in captivate
The temptation of 80gb on my phone was too great- I caved and bought a 64gb SDXC card from sandisk for 80 bucks. I dumped a few videos from my desktop onto the card to test it out, and got a damaged sd card message, prompting to format it. I clicked okay, forgetting that the ICS build I'm using formats internal SD instead of external SD. So that hurt.
Next I tried a nook color using CM7. Got the same damaged sd card, but it was able to format it. I got a reboot as it attempted to re-mount it following the format, but following the reboot, it was usable. It played video and showed up as 59.6GB or something close. This newly android-formatted card wouldn't work in when stuck back in the captivate, however. It's possible that it will work on a different rom- one that's able to format it itself, but after losing the internal SD, I'm going to hold off on messing around with an old GB rom.
Fake 16 Gb Kingston microSD card for just $26.40
The 8 Gb microSD card is $13.90
available at http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.50569
If somebody could report maximum speeds this would be great, I ordered mine today. I don't care its not genuine and not class 6.
Why would you do that when you can get genuine cards even cheaper than that
For example: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B002NTP06K/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&psc=1 (runs at Class 6 speeds)
I thought nothing would be cheaper than dealextreme
I have a simple question. What is the Micro SD card with the best read and write speed? I would like a 16 or 32GB Micro SD Card for my HTC EVO 3D.
search for class 10 on google. it's has the highest read/write speed.
Sandisk
The faster and more memory the better, I usually stick to main brands so you know your not getting ripped of. But my sandisk micro sd works perfect.
You can buy the samsung 16 Gb class 10 microsd.
I use it with s2e, and its very fast.
And for under 20 euros (i think,atleast on amazon), its kind of cheap.

I can only recommend this card: Samsung MB-SSBGA Class 10 Essential SDHC
Thank you guys.
Best SD card
I prefer SanDisk for quality and Kingston (is cheaper €2-3 -at least in my country).
I am using Kingston and no problem. For sure SDHC and not less than Class 10 :]
Quite funny: I have a 8 GB and a 16 GB Sandisk MicroSD card. The 8 GB card works in my ZTE Blade as well as in my X10 Mini Pro. Although the Mini Pro is said to be compatible with MicroSD cards up to 16 GB, it refuses to work together with the 16 GB card but serves well in the Blade!
Just a little review for anyone interested in a 128gb Micro SD card.
3x 4GB Read/Write run to see how persistent the performance is.
1x 1GB full run
3x 1GB full run
Transfering 21,7 GB of 2080 files to the new SD card (content of old sd card copied from SSD to this card), 17,2 MB/s average write speed.
Note that the external card reader of the Galaxy S4 doesn't support UHS-I, which is why the performance is crippled.
Got the card for 86€ on german Amazon, best and fastest 128gb Micro SD you can get right now.
Hope this helped someone
Nice speeds!
