What is the maximum SD-card size? - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

Hi all,
what is the biggest SD-Card size you have successfully used with the Prophet?
My girlfriend is thinking of buying a 4GB card for her music collection...
And I just saw the first 8GB SD-Cards are available.
thanks
tdklaus

I have a 4GB Transcend (150x Speed) in my XDA Neo.
It does work fine! Just keep in mind to format it with your Desktop PC - otherwise you can't access it from the Desktop PC later (e.q. to store MP3 etc.)
Regards,

Up now 4go is the max, but you have to buy a SD card, NOT A SDHC !

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.

Anyone running 4 or 8gb mini SD?

Hi guys,
Currently running a 2gb mini SD in my SP5. Though wondering if it will support a 4 or 8gb card?
Can anyone confirm and if they could post what model/manufacterer they have to it would be appreciated
Thanks!
it is only possible with non sdhc cards. Tornado doesn't support sdhc.
i think there are some 4GB non-sdhc cards available.
Currently I am also using a 2GB miniSD on my SP5m. I also like to know whether this SP5m supports higher GB cards OR not???
Anyboby who experience kindly share with us.
I use 4GB Kingston not SDHC but SD card for long time( SP5m)
great thanks for the info.. can anyone tell me how i tell how i recognise a NON-SDHC card?

Using a 4GB MiniSD as well. I bought it on Ebay.
They usually say if its a SDHC card or not. I think nearly all the cheap & no-name ones should work...
wish me luck! just ordered one off ebay

So i need someone who has tried n tested to let me know please. Can a 8GB SDHC card with an adapter wrk on my sp5? Thank you
No. SDHC is not supported in any ROM and no one here has gotten any SDHC working on a Tornado.

But why then does the adapter say for all standard minisd devices?
If i was to still to put an SDHC card into my sp5 would it give me at least 4gb of storage or just not work at all.

It will not work. But there are 4GB non-SDHC cards which work just fine.
OK thanks a lot for your replies.

SD or SDHC?

Morning all,
I currently use 1GB Sandisk SD card for my XDA II Himalaya. As TomTom size is increasing day by day, I was looking for an 8GB SD card however when I searched online, it said SD over 2GB are now SDHC (SD High Capacity cards) and the devices need to be compatible to be able to run it.
My question is, Does Hima XDA II supports SDHC cards? (I am using Ather 6.14 ROM Mobile version 6).
Could someone please help on this matter before I make a buy?
Here is the link to the Hima I have :[http://www.gsmarena.com/o2_xda_ii-697.php]
Here is the link to the SDHC I am looking at : [http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/4949650/SanDisk-8GB-SD-HC-Card/Product.html]
Many thanks
Regards
Jehanzeb
Hi,
Himalaya does not support SDHC, only SD.
However, I have several 4gb non sdhc memory cards working perfectly.
If your search well you will certainly find them.
Three suggestions:
1 - Try before your buy. There have been mixed experiences with different brands (and sometimes even with the same brand...)
2 - If possible, go for the ones with highest speed (even if some say there is no difference...)
3 - Format the sd card in the device...
Regards,
P
Thanks Pdc4, I really appereciate your help in this.
I am looking at Sandisk ones, they are quite good and faster then other brands.
Will check out and find out if I can find one which is only SD.
Many thanks
Kind Regards

iGo8 on 4Gb SDHC card, working or not ???

Hi everybody
I would like to know if someone as found the way to execute iGo8 on a SDHC card, mine is working well on a 2Gb (non HC) card, but on my *brand new* 4Gb SDHC, it doesn't !!!
I've read on some other forums that it's a "bug" of the program, and I would like to know if there was an issue with it...
Thanx for your (several ??) answers !!!
If you wan't to run it, buy it... this ain't a warez support forum...
works on sdhc 8GB
Thanx for your answer, prattjo
Can you tell me which brand of SD Card you use ???
Thanx
did you purchase it?
I'm using SanDisk 8GB SDHC class 6 and Igo8 was working
I don't think, that you problem is with capacity of card, but maybe with Igo itself? antypiracy security?
or your card is broken
