will sdhc cards get bigger soon? - P3600 Accessories

On the transcend website it says sdhc can go to 32G. but then they say they only sell them at 4GB. Will they get any bigger soon?
And will the trinity be able to support them?
What is the advantage of buying the 4GB mini-sdhc over a regular minisd 4GB?
thanks
Scott

Of course they will, they always do. There is already 8gb SD SDHC cards available from several manufacturers. It is only a matter of time for them to come available in miniSD. The only problem is that your device must accept a larger card. http://www.pma-show.com/0239/kingston/storage/8gb_sdhc_card/

so if it a matter of a registry tweak or what to make a bigger card work?

8gb sd card

Has anyone tried using an 8gb sd card under WM6?
I have WM6 on my XDA Exec, but don't want to buy an 8GB card if it's not going to work.
If it's HDSD it won't work (from my understanding), if its SD it might work... but i've never heard of any regular SD card that is bigger then 4GB.
you can use it as a storage. it is be able to install programs on!

Hi!
I think the bigger memory will be apear very soon. So that is very good for memory limit of PPC. But can it work???? Not sure.
>4gb wont work with universal, and indeed some 2gb and 4gb ones too.
the universal has only a SD card reader, not SDHC. SDHC capabilities would need new hardware or at the very least new firmware so its not gonna happen, sorry
ocz sd card 4gb

A new firmware to make the Universal's SD Card Slot SDHC compliant is not possible. Only a new hardware component will work.
The OFFICIAL maximum storage capacity supported on the Universal SD Card Slot is 6GB. Obviously such an SD card does not exist and hence the practical maximum limitation is 4GB.

Toshiba have made 32GB SD cards!

Oh baby, Toshiba just announced that they have made some 16GB And 32GB SDHC cards (class 4)! And 8GB MicroSDHC. Check out this link:
http://blog.scifi.com/tech/archives/2007/08/23/toshiba_unleash_1.html
Imagine using one of these with the new ROM by Laurentius, Beast & Mamaich!!!
My mobile phone would have a lot more storage space than even my laptop (20GB), that is crazy
Now what happens next for the SD format? Because the limit for SDHC cards is 32GB, so already we have reached the limit of this "new" specification
available januari
$700 for 32gb
$350 for 16gb
theoretical limit is 2048gb by the way, not 32gb
I think a 2 Terrabyte SDHC card won't be possible until year 2009+
hahaha.. that's just insane..
But a 4Gb was also thought as insane back in early 2000
damn.. technology is insane..
Wow, a) just in time to force 8gb SDHC cards price down for this new rom . b) probably want one because I can... 32GB makes for a neat storage of music and turns PDA's into useful USB HDD's now.
Sweet all round

Does the T-Mobile Shadow support SDHC cards?

yay or nay?
pretty sure.
We'll find out for sure next week when I get my 4GB card /=
SPCartmanLand: Before asking basic questions, search google first, go to the product website and read the technical specifications.
Here's a quote:
The Shadow's microSD card slot supports SDHC for high capacity cards. We tested it with a 4 gig SanDisk card and a library of MP3s and it worked fine.

SDHC Cards in Shadow
I spoke with an HTC Rep today who told me that there is a software update coming out in January that will not only fix the "Phantom Alarm" issue but will make the Shadow capable of usig the 8GB SDHC cards.
I currently have a sandisk 6gb card in my shadow. I believe it supports either up to 8 or 16gb sdhc cards.

SDHC with Wizard?

Hi,
Although this question has been put up many a times but I don't see a conclusion in any of the threads. Can someone give a finite answer to the SDHC support in Wizard? (Y/N)?
Did anyone try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345038&highlight=sdhc+patch
Thanks.
WIZA200 (HT622)
TNT 1933 ROM
Yep, tried it and it didn't work. I couldn't even read my existing 2Gb SD card
There seems to be conflicting information - some say it is just a driver issue, others say the Wizard's hardware can't support SDHC. I have searched and searched and it does seem that either the Wizard's hardware can't support SDHC or there simply hasn't been a driver written that supports it. Either way it doesn't work currently.

Depends from what you really want to achieve bottom line .. I have a 4GB card working perfectly smooth. Not sure, but I guess it is not a SDHC card. So is it really the SDHC you are looking for, or rather "just" a large sized card?
If you want I could check for the supplier.

Are you talking about 4GB mini SD Card? where did you get it? I am not talking about SDHC. I got 4GB HCSD but I never have a change to make it works with my Wizard.
Yes, bottomline is that 2 GB is not enough and I am seriously looking for high capacity cards. I came to know that all the cards above 2GB are SDHC (as on sandisk and sdcard.org websites).
If you know of a 4 GB card that is non-SDHC and is working well, please do send me the supplier details. I am based in India so need to check if he can ship overseas.
Thanks.
Right now I have an authentic 4 GB SDHC card from Transcend.
Till now I have tried all the patches/drivers available here for SDHC but couldn't make this to work. I even checked after formatting the the card in FAT16.

Here is the one I bought. It is NOT SDHC, but has a 4 GB size. Unfortunately this link is to a German eBay shop:

Hope this will help you in possibly finding a supplier in India!

Sorry for the huge link, I dont even know if it will work so lemme know. If it does, all of that guy's 4gb mini-SD cards are non HC. From what I have read, "Topram mini-SD 4gb" cards from a certain batch are non HC and work with the wizard. I ordered one from the person in the link and it has been working fine so far. Hope this helps.
Is there a difference between the cards themselves or is it just the formatting?

the formatting and the hardware logic is different. there are differences internally, but externally they appear to be the same.

Maximum MicroSD capacity?

What is maximum microSD capacity that works with Touch Cruise aka Polaris.
I know people use 8GB but I was wondering could I use 16GB?
anybody tried it?
Thank you!!
over 2 gb it requests an SDHC driver, this is for the elder HTC versions,
The polaris/touch cruise do have the SDHC driver installed,
so it should recognize any microsd.
thank you for the answer.
I have 4 GB microSD card so I know it works. I also know 8 GB works because a lot of people here says that they use it.
I'am planning to buy 16 GB microSD card but I want to know for sure it works.
I ask this because from what I know some cameras or card readers have like 8GB limit or 4GB limit.
so I would like that somebody confirm, from it's own experience that it works.
Thank you
can just confirm that 8gig are working fine.
Look at my signature !!

in those cases I always buy stuff at eBay or our local store with the assurance of returning the product. So buy and try. If it fails just return it.
