Recently received my orbit 2 and it came with a 1gb micro sd card and copilot. I want to upgrade to a larger card but will that mean losing copolit? Not sure if it installed itself on the card the first time I turned on the device, or if it came on the card to begin with. If that's the case, how do I switch this over to another card? Thanks.
Everytime I upgraded my MicroSD card, I just copied everything I had on the card to a folder on my computer, then inserted the new card in the phone and copied it back.
Everything ran the same exact way as it did before I upgraded the card. Even all my applications that were installed on the card.
Great, thanks
Was about to buy a new card (going for 2gb), when I found a few choices:
- sandisk micro sd
- sandisk micro sd premier
- or I could go for sandisk 4gb sdhc
Is there any difference in performance or anything else between the above? Any advice on best option for the orbit2 (or even other brands)?
Cheers.
I'm using a Sandisk 4gb SDHC card. Works great.
If i'm not wrong SDHC is a completely new technology, and the cruise is one of the first to support it.
Thanks, I was impatient and just went for the normal 2gb

I just dumped a 2gb in favour of an 8gb. It was only £30 or so, might as well!
SDHC
I cant get my orbit 2 to see an sdhc card. Can anyone help?
I've had a A-Data microsd HC 8GB card with miniSD adapter for about two months. It all worked well until I took the card out of the phone and put it into a card reader. The computer recognized the card, I transfered some big files (it's quicker to transfer than using USB...) and then ran into problems with my P3600. First, no card was found by PPC. I made a few hard resets, formatted the card, tried other roms... Nothing seemed to help, so I took the card back to service and they gave me another one right away (a replacement). Of course I was very excited since I cannot live without some memory in my HTC. Inserted the new card and... again nothing, saying "Not installed". Yes, I read there are problems with SDHC cards, but I'd like to get it working as soon as possible (tomorrow I'm going to Germany, so I'd really need it), if no solution, I'll have to be statisfied with my old 2GB MINISD.
Any solutions here??
Tried almost everything.
Thanks,
e
have you tryied with a different adaptor?
no... i was thinking about trying my father's but i don't want to mess up thing for him also. the the microsd -> minisd -> sd -> computer seems to work just fine
SDHC Problems
I think you musst format the sdhc card in --> importend---> FAT32 FORMAT
on you Pc!
Check file manager
Using File manager check that, when you removed the card, the OS didn't create a new Storage card. If it did, your card will become Storage Card 2 and not function correctly.
The cure is to remove your card, delete Storage card from My Device, put your card in and soft reset.
Good luck.
I risked my father's MINISD adapter and it works... so it was the adapte causing all of the problems :/ I'll go and buy another one.
Thank you for your help anyway!
Bye,

I have the Sandisk 8 Gig microSD w adapter in my Trinity and it works perfectly. In fact it is the best memory card that I've ever used going back through all of my PPC devices. It hasn't had even one single issue.

which ROM/windows verion are you using? you might need to flash a different one or apply a fix - search and you'll find-it
Only 4GB SDHC work in default Rom WM5
Update to WM6 and 8GB SDHC working fine.
Hello all, I recently upgraded to the ATT Fuze and then installed an AData 8 Gb MicroSD card. The issue is sometimes the phone will not detect the files in the card. So if I restart my phone everything works fine and the phone sees all files in the SD card with 80 mb used. If I restart again the phone takes a long time to view memory of the storage card and then shows nearly the entire 8 gb used. File explorer show the folders but none of the files in the SD card.
If I remove the MIcro sd card and plug it directly into my laptop then it shows the actual space use and al the files correctly.
Anyone see this issue or how to resolve it. I have already replaced the phone once. SD card works perfectly when used in a laptop.
IS THIS A PROLEMWITH THE PHONE OR THE SD card.
Please help
Why don't you try re-formatting the memory card?
If you've replaced the phone and you're still having the problem, I'd say it's the card.
I use a SanDisk 16GB MicroSD in my Fuze and have never had any problems with it.
I have reformatted the card multiple times using both vista and Xp and still the same results. The card works just fine on my laptop. When I put the card in my phone it does not detect the card till I soft reset the phone. After it comes up, the phone will see the card but show space used as the entire 8 gb even if the card is empty.
I have ordered a new Kingston 8 gb card. Hopefully that will work
Sometimes there are compatibility issues with certain cards. I use a Sandisk 8gb card and it works well. TP reads and writes quickly to it. Try this other card you ordered then adise results here. Good luck.
HTC recommends Sandisk.
I use sandisk 8 Gb Micro SHDC Mobile Ultra with the Tyynt sdtune up cab!
Suggestion
Format the card sell it and buy a real sandisk ;-)
Yea! will try the Kingston. What is the sdtune up cab file. I could not find such a file.
I too
Hi, i have the same issue with same A-DATA SDHC 8GB Class 6. On PC everything is ok, but when i put it in TP (no branded) PDA didn't recognize it. I reformat it 10+ times, same. I make some experiments and realize that when on the card i have to 2GB files work fine, but when i exceed that limit the card stops to mount in file system of TP. I fill the card to max with some stuffs and place an image file, then try to flash the phone with it, the strane is that the phone is flashing ok, but after flash and hard reset the card didn't mount at all. If i change the image file i can flash again, but in file system i haven't card. Very strange. I use few roms ot NRZ28. Do you think that the problem is in any dll in rom or the problem is in card. Becouse bootloader see and use card, but the system didn't.
p.s. Sorry for bad english.
My Kingston SD card works. The only difference I can see between the two is that the AData is a class 6 while the Kingston is a class 4.
maybe the Fuze has an issue with class 6 cards?
I am using the ADATA 8G MicroSDHC memory card without any problem for my HTC Fuze. This is a Class 6 card from Newegg.
Yea, I had bought the exact same one! Dunno why it didnt work for me!
i am using an 8GB Adata microSDHC card from Newegg.com and my HTC Fuze will NOT see it. I have tried everything I know (very computer knowledgeable). Checked the reg settings, etc. but it will not ever see the card even after reformats and reboots. The card works fine in laptop and other devices, but not my HTC Fuze... ???????
I had big probs with my 8 gb sandisk: Files and folders were lost after a time... i formatted with a lot of utilities, nothing helped now i use kingston without any probs on my TP ...

I purchased DSE 8Gb card, like you could see it, reformat it & everything worked a treat on the PC, but when putting into the TP it was a very different story!
Sometimes it would see it, sometimes not, very hit & miss affair without any reliably repeatable circumstances, so took it back, tried another one - same issue, then sucked it up and went to purchase a Kingston one (5 bucks cheaper)... it worked first time and haven't had (touch wood) a problem yet!

Mariobg, I am in the same situation you are. I am using NRG Energy Rom 2.0 4/14/09. I am having the same problems with my A-DATA micro SDHC 8GB Class 6. I also own a SanDisk 512 MB micro SD card that works no problem. I will try flashing to a different ROM to see if that fixes it. Did you ever solve the problem.
Adata issues on rapahel
Hi there , i have the same problem with this &*^&*%$ Adata card on my raphael.
Rom : Elite rc3
Tried Hard Reset
Tried Soft Reset
formatted it untill it was smoking.
Learned one thing with this....first read...then buy.
Well I tried several different ROMs and still no success. i ended up trying the memory card in my friends HTC Fuze, and it did not work either. He had a 4 GB micro SDHC A-data card that works great. So I tried his card in my phone, and it also worked great. So, it appears that the 8 GB A-data card is defective. I am going to RMA it tomorrow.

But, unfortunately, it did not solve my problem.
I have a Class 4 Kingston 8GB MicroSD that was in NTFS format. My HTC Fuze couldn't see it until I format it in FAT32. Works now .
So today i brought a 8gb Transcend Class 6 mico sd card for my raphael. So i went back home and try it then i found it not detected on the file explorer but it says expansion slot in use when i go to Settings>About. Thanks in advance.

Transcend is not recomended by HTC. i am also having same problem with my SD card which is made by Transcend (4GB capacity). it detects when you put it in phone for a longer time, but you can not write/save/copy anything in it. it will say FILE CAN NOT COPY, MAKE SURE THE PHONE IS PROPERLY CONENCTED AND SOURCE FILE IS NOT MOVED BLA....BLA... BLA...
when i checked with HTC team, they advised me to use micro SD from SANDISK.
well the weird thing is when i insert the card on my friends phone(HTC TYTN 2) it detects it instantly after inserting it in. But when i insert it on my phone it doesn't work, btw i also tried another card from my friend, it a sandisk 4gb and it worked. hmm this seems top be a uncommon issue.
I ahve the SAME exact problem with the 8GB Transcend Class 6 Micro SD that I just bought for my phone. I've had no issues at all with the 4GB Transcend Class 6 card that I currently have. On the other hand, I had a 4GB Sandish Class 6 that would not work in my Raphael but would work just fine in my Kaiser.
Appearently the card worked randomly but i can't copy any file to the card for some reason.
look for something called SDformatter by panasonic i had similar troubles with a couple sd cards till i found this program.
they all work now in any phone/device.
Is there any specific setting to set in the program Panasonic formating program? Erase enable or whatever? I had my SD card working for about 2 or 3 days and now its not detected again.
I have similar my 8GB does not get recognized and if does it's only for a matter of minutes then corrupts but my 2GB reads fine, but the 8GB is fine in Kaiser already used the SDformatter to which makes it read till corrupts again within minutes...
Going to try some other cards out in local shop before purchase will take laptop to transfer data while there.

I have read in a lot of post that Transcend 8GB class 6 card have problems to be recognized by Rapahel.
I also have one. On my Kaiser worked well.
With stock rom it wasn't recognized by Raphael; with Energyrom it is recognized, but i used for few minutes, because i feared that something bad could happen..after reading all these post.
I usually use a Kingston 2gb card.
We were unlucky buying these cards...

Yes, I also have a Samsung 8GB class 6 card that my Touch Pro refuses to read. Tried an EnergyROM as I had read that for some reason they were better at reading some cards. But no dice - just bought Sandisk Class 2 and it works perfectly so far
Hi all,
My apologies if this has already been covered but i have a question regarding the removeable but not removeable storage within a HTC Mozart 7.
Ive pulled the phone apart previously a long time ago and had a 16 kingston class 2 Micro SD installed and it caused alot of freezes and crashes and as such i removed it and placed the existing sandisk 8gig class 4 Micro SD card back into my phone, Ive been using this fine for quite a while and the time has come where i either have to remove all my pictures and movies (Back them up of course) in order to keep using the phone as i have run out of space. This isnt something i want to do as i like to have the pictures and movies on the go with me like they should be so i can access them whenever i want. Ive started using skydrive to store my pictures to make room on my phone so i can use it. Anyhow as im getting off topic i`ll get to the point. I purchased a Genuine Sandisk 32gig Class 4 microsd card before the release on mango in the hopes it would work and it subsequently didnt. I therefore email HTC support asking them for a list of what cards are supported and strangly enough they did respond. With this
Here are the brand names of SD card and its storage that are compatible with HTC handsets. We have tested these and we can guarantee its functionality. You may use one of these to your phone. Please see the list below:
BRAND SIZE
ADATA 4GB, 8GB, 16GB
Kingston 4GB, 16GB
PQI 16GB
Pretec 4GB, 8GB
SanDisk 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16GB
SILICON POWER 4GB, 8GB, 16GB
Transcend 4GB, 8GB, 16GB
As there is no mention of the 32gig card being supported i took it out. im now trying to install a 16gig kingstone class 4 card and when i boot the phone i get the error "Memory card not working". so i thought i`d try the old 16 gig class 4 card and got the same message. Its worked before but i have a feeling that it may not be working now as it was used with the old OS and not with 7.10 so my phone no longer detects it. Anyway does anyone have any ideas on how i can get the 16 gig or 32gig class 4 cards to work with my phone? Do i maybe need to jailbreak it to make it support higher cards?
Any answers would be helpful
Solved
For those wondering themselves how to do this (Mango Update). Basically follow your guide to removing the old SD card and input the new one, ive had problems with kingston class 2 cards and bought a genuine sandisk 32gig class4 card which is now working and installed in my HTC Mozart.
After installing the new card and booting your phone you get a message "Memory card not working" whereas with the old original OS you got prompted to format (looks like M$ changed that feature). So what you need to do is power off the power and holding down both up and down on the volume keys power on the device. You`ll get prompted with a 2 options.
Volume Up - CRC checking ( i think)
Volume Down - Factory reset
NOTE-this will wipe your phone completly. If you havnt done a zune backup i STRONGLY advise you do this before attempting this.
Press down and you will see a message advising "Reset Complete". Power off the phone and turn it back on and the phone will restart in "First Run" mode. Once you have completed all the steps you should see the OS booted up. Check Settings\About\More Information and you should now see your new size depeding on the size of the SD card you`ve installed.
