amazon is too annoying, brings up anything and everything, don't trust ebay
mymemory has class 2 or class 10 for £80+
help
NM, found a thread on this forum and got one ordered. yay!
from? link?
Bought all my SD Cards from these guys http://www.mobymemory.com/micro-SD.asp
this thread isnt in the wrong section at all.............
Can I ask why people care about the class? I've just got a class 2 32gb card from Vodafone for £89. I've not noticed any problems or slowdown taking pictures or playing media...which are the only things my card is used for. Transfers are no slower than any other device I connect via USB.
What's the big fuss?
it's for running apps from in the (hopefully) near future.
class 6 means (i think) a minimum 6Mb/sec transfer rate
oh, got it from memory cow
Yes, but most people have suggested they see no difference when using apps2sd with the "slower" cards. It seems there's a lot of assumptions being made leading to actual sales decisions where it may not be needed.
See this fellow who thought a faster card would solve his issues: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708859
So where is no differences between class 2 and class 6 ?
Because i have dilemma now, i want to buy some high capacity microSD card, and if i take 32GB it will be class 2, and if i take at same cost 16GB card it will be class 6.
And does any body try to buy 32GB card from Ebay ? ( i am worrying that 32GB is not GB, its Gb, and that means just 4GB )
Thanks for help
i woul;dn't trust the cards off ebay tbh
I went ahead and bought the Transcend 16gb class 6 card through OFFTEK. It arrived with the adaptor, and was very prompt.
http://www.offtek.co.uk/item_detail....at=1&subcat=74
Pretty good price too. I just copied everything to my desktop, swapped cards and copied back.
The new card works great, but i did notice that the full card size is stated as "14.96gb" on the phone, rather than 16.
I also wonder if there is a difrence between a class 2 or class 6 card when playing movies, apps or taking pictures on your SD card.
because that would make the difrence between going for a 32gb or 16gb card.
well, i noticed a difference when copying files. both cards broke 10MB/sec on large files, but the old card dropped damn quick when copying loads of small files - e.g photos.
i'd imagine it would be like this when looking through an album or flicking from one image to the next. it's not about the max speed, but the minimum.

37 euro's for class 10/16GB seems waaay to cheap for me.
I also doubt it's a micro sd

right it is not a micro-sd, I have see bad
THE CLASS OF AN SD CARD IS TO DO WITH ITS WRITE SPEED NOT ITS READ SPEED, YOU WONT NOTICE ANY DIFFENCE WHEN READING FROM IT

Perfectly normal not to get the quoted capacity, combination of space lost due to formatting and the tendency of hardware producers to size storage media in decimal (ie. 16 000 000 000 bytes) rather than the binary equivalent - which the OS displays (16 x 1024 x 1024 x 1024 bytes).
I've confused myself with that statement - in short the hardware manufaturers use a commonly accepted, flattering but actually incorrect notation to lead you to believe that you are getting more for your money - HTH
Kingston make a 16gb class10, but it's pretty expensive (~100€)

Oh, and by the way, up to what class num can the Desire actually handle ?
I picked up my SanDisk 16GB Class 6 from the Carphonewarehouse when i went and got my Desire,,, i beleive it was £42
IMO i have always used Class 6 cards, i think they are the business, i dont care for read and write speeds i just need something that works and is reliable, SanDisk have always had my back so there ya go
Going to buy the DHD on monday and i read about troubles with the "slow" class 2 microsd card which comes with the DHD (like 720p recording isnt smooth enough).. should i get a 16gb class 6 sd card? or is class 4 enough? or is even the 8gb class 2 which comes with the DHD fast enough?
Thought about a Transcend 16gb class 6 (but its pretty expensive.. 56€ = ~65$ i think).. so maybe a cheaper (class 4 or class 2) is enough?
thanks

I have had no problems with the card provided. I find it hard to belive htc would supply a sd card that is not capable of using all features of the device. I am sure someone disagrees, your best bet is to stick with the one provided. If you do have any problems with the class 2, you can always try a class 4.
Try eBay, here are 2 good (and free shipping) deals I took. Still waiting on delivery, but you can't really beat the price.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280603123927 <-- 32GB (at least class 4/6) (ebay removed item, possibly fake, awaiting 'shipment', card arrived, working 100%, not fake )
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260710352568 <-- 8GB class 10
If anyone buys a higher class SDCard could you provide a mini review. I'm in the market for a well priced, but balanced with performance SDCard.
Reading manufacturer reviews is pointless, and inexperienced users are the same.
Anyone who can recommend a good/great SDCard will get my thanks, and maybe a thank-you donation.
I will let you know as soon as I get them
Please do, I much prefer a good user review to a standard "It works" review. Many thanks & Merry Xmas
My DHD came with an 8 GB class 4 Sandisk, so don't know if the included card varies, depending on where you buy it? Since you're talking about class 2 and all.
Anyway, I bought a 16 GB class 4 Kingston, the worst piece of crap I've ever had, corrupted data and apps on sd constantly and slow transfer speeds via USB. Don't know if that's just the way that card works with the phone, or if I got one from a bad batch. But anyway, now I'm waiting for a replacement Sandisk 16 GB class 2, hoping it'll do a better job.
if we buy another sd card apart from the stock sd do we need to copy paste some folders which are spesific for some apps or the apps will recreate them in the new sd?
The one included with mine is only a class 2. (cant remember name now, sorry)

Copy the contents of the old sdcard to a folder on your pc. Then copy that to the new sdcard after formatting it. Just did this last night when I put in my new (Xmas pressie!!) 32GB card. I formatted the card first in the phone.
HTH.

Thanks a lot Dave, so soft copy/paste for files & folders is enough for new SD card transition.
Good to know that. BTW Which SD card is your 32 GB, did you notice any speed improvements with your new SD?

It was for me. I actually formatted the card in my old Nokia E71, plugged the E71 into my PC and mounted the card. Then 'copy n pasted' the files over. Seems a weird way to do it but a) my SD to microsd adaptor card is b&ggered so had to use the (a) phone and b) I only have USB2 connectivity on my PC so copying the c. 25GB of music etc I have took several hours. Tying up the old phone was preferable to tying up my current DHD.
One thing though. I'd read that the best way to format an SD card was using 'sdformatter' from http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/ .... which sounded like a good plan. However the formatted card couldn't be read on XP Pro SP3 PC. Hence why I formatted it on the Nokia. That worked a treat.

I got this one ... http://www.mymemory.co.uk/Micro-SDHC/MyMemory/MyMemory-32GB-Micro-SD-(SDHC)-Card---Class-4 .... Not noticed any speed improvements, though probably as I haven't used it much yet. To be honest the reason I got it was mainly to hold all my music so getting rid of an MP3 player. Any sd card is fast enough for that. I haven't checked out the exact feeds and speeds but I'm suspecting that any card is also fast enough for video/still shots as I haven't noticed any problem yet!

I got the 8GB class 10 one (around $20 inc shipping, got here in less than 2 weeks), quick test show read speed to be 17.4MB/sec (looking for a decent app to measure write speed, preferably non destructive unlike the way HD Speed does)
As for the 32GB one. Think it was a scam, ebay removed page. Gonna wait a little, as it did have a shipping number before all the details disappeared, if it does not arrive, I will contest the $14 I paid for it.
Update: The 32GB one, not a scam, just arrived. Sandisk 32GB class 4, tested, all working What a bargain!
Not sure if this is the right forum, but looked like accessories was the best bet.
Im looking at 32G cards, but open to 16 as well. Just switched to Android, so would be good to know others experiences, and whether there is something I cannot do with a Class 4, for example or whether you see any lags with other cards you have used etc, or if a specific class is needed for using some specific feature?. I did do a search, and didnt find anything, maybe I missed it. Might be useful to have a thread regarding people's experiences..
Any suggestions/recommendations for what I should be looking at?
I have read that the Partiot/Adata/Wintec cards are not too reliable, though their prices for a class 10 are much lower..But I dont want to go through the hassle of returning/copying data, so I am thinking Class 4 is enough.
Here is one option, Sandisk 32g, doesnt say class 4, but some reviewers mention it is actually class 4. At the same time, some mention they got Class 2. Cannot post a link since I don't have 8 posts yet
Search for SDSDQ-032G-A11M, US Retail Package on Amazon, maybe someone else can add the link! Its for ~62, shipped from Amazon.
Thanks for your help!
This is what I bought.

The nice 32gb ones were to expensive for me. This is a good price for it. i have been using for about a month and half. No issues at all.
Thanks cableguychad!
Anyone else have suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
I'm rocking the Patriot LX series 16gb as well. Class 10 and with transfers(usually 3-5 gigs) I'm hovering around 8-9mb/s.
EDIT: If you live by a Frys Electronics, I picked mine up there for $32.
I have the Patriot 8 GB Class 10 from FRYS. I'm getting speeds of ~11 Mbps.
I think it would be better to go with a 16 GB class 10 (~30 for Patriot class 10), than a 32 GB that's close to three times the cost of a 16 GB.
I just got this one, so far it seems to perform well enough. It's only a class 6 and it was writing at about 8-9 megs. Not too bad IMO.

You can't go wrong with this one. Great deal.
Many of my buddies have had 32GB MicroSD cards and a lot have malfunctioned. Never really had issues with 2-16GB MicroSD
Dont get HP brand, I had a hell of a time making a gold card because it kept getting corrupted. Format took forever to do as well.
Thanks for all your suggestions!
I took the 16g card out of my Epic and it works great its a class 2 I formatted it 1st and no problems. So it seems Samsung cards are good.
i bought a Wintech 16GB class 10 off newegg for $28. Out of curiosity, will the format SD card function in clockwork recovery work to just format it so I can use it? Or should I do a full format on a pc, why do you need to format before use? Why cant you just pop it in and go? Does HTC format the sd card before they ship all these phones to the carriers/customers? Just curious, thanks for input.
I've recently been having a great experience using Kingston 8 gig class 4 cards to record hd video.
To check the card speeds on pc I use CrystalDiskMark 3.
There is also an android app called SDTools that will show card information.
I also use SD Formatter 3 from sdcard.org to format my cards.
Another tool to find out if your cards are what they claim to be is H2testw. It checks capacities, corruption and read/write speeds.
Just an update, got the card in the mail, so far so good, dont know any way to test the speeds but i tryed two apps, one said it maxed out at 20mbs and the other 14mbs, so i dunno how acurate thise numbers are but all seems well!

Just pop it into computer, and format it as FAT 32, and use it. Generally all cards are pre-formatted when manufacturer sends u out. But I reformat it before first use to make sure its in the FS as per my preferences .
I bought a cheap 16gb card on ebay
I'm sure it's a counterfeit Sandisk. I've had it at least a year. I only paid twenty bucks for it back when 16gb cards were 50 bucks. It's only class 2. I used it for a long time with my Tilt 2 without any problems, even though I store 10gb of music on it. Now I'm using it in my Inspire. I tested it using the SD tools app. The write speed is 11.6 and the read speed is 20.4. Sometimes those numbers fluctuate slightly, but that's what it tested just now. It does fine with HD video. About once a week I was getting a disk error on my phone in which the card was becoming unmounted, particularly when I would use google navigation. I used SDFormatter 3, the one mentioned in the post above, and I turned on "format size adjustment", and the error hasn't happened in a while. I appeciate the poster who mentioned the software. It seems to work better than the native Windows 7 formatter on my pc.
Here's a link to a 32gb class 4 for sell right now on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/32-GB-Micro-SD-...906?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2564d3c83a
Cards with the exact same generic blue and white packaging are abundant on ebay today from 17 to 30 bucks. Most are receiving good reviews. I may take a gamble. You never know.
Update: Ha ha. I asked the above seller if the card had been tested for capacity and speed. The reply was "Card no is fake. It real." lol
i wanna 32
hi, i looking for a 32 gb, i saw a wintec 32 class 10 but heard alot of bad reviews. i bought a trancend 32gb online for $45, turned out it was a bad card. thank god for paypal, told them my problem, got a refund. now for father's day, i wanna 32gb any suggestions? thanks. btw, does the diff class speeds make a big diff? i mainly put music in it. thanks again.
Anyone using a 32GB SDHC card in their Fascinate? Just asking because there's one on sale on the Newegg Shell Shocker later today (check at 10AM pacific time). Wondering about speeds and such, and whether Class 10 is worth it (seems like if you want to fill such a big card, it'd be nice to have the faster write speeds of Class 10 but I've seen some reports of incompatibilities/problems with C10 devices).
I was just benchmarking the card that came in my Fascinate (which is supposedly Class 2) with SD Tools and I get 5-8MB/s writes and 16-18MB/s reads which is way better than the Class 2 minimums. The one on the shell shocker is a Class 4 so I'm just wondering whether it'll be a downgrade in terms of speed (just because it's rated for significantly lower speeds than what I'm getting with the internal one). I'll probably end up getting it anyway because I've got ~1GB free on my current one and I want to play with an Ubuntu chroot install.
i got the sandisk 32g class 10 it was worth it. Seems to R/W faster but that maybe due to the SD card boost read ahead cache hack. I think mine is set to 512K. Whether its faster or not the extra space is always a plus
Guess ill find out the hard way with ya, bought one as well. Was also wandering about the speed difference. Noticed the one that came with was class 2 and the 32 was class 4, hoped it at least wouldn't be any worse as i am content with the speed of the included sd. Was really surprised to see that it was a class 2.
Oh well just have to wait until it gets here and see.
DO NOT BUY THE Patriot LX Class 10 32GB CARD!!!
After a few months of light usage (i hardly ever connected it to transfer anything, just had HD seasons of breaking bad, chuck, human target and sparta that I never had time to finish watching) I finally hooked it up for maybe the 6th time since i purchased it, and after transferring some music and more shows, i got a "Damaged SD Card" error. For the last month since that occurrence, I have had to reformat the card at least once a week, and set up my music and just a few episodes at a time (because whats the point of putting seasons on if i'll just have to transfer them over again in a few days) consistently. Sure, it moves along at 12MB/s, but certainly not worth the hassle.
This is not an issue that I have heard of with Class 2 or Class 4 32GB micro SDHC cards, and Patriot says they are working with Microsoft and Google to determine the cause of the issue, but Newegg reviews indicate that this is not an isolated incident.
Good luck with the SanDisk card!!!
Mhm, I got the A-Data 32GB class 4 from Newegg. I benchmarked it and it's not as amazing as the built in card (around 5-6MB/s write and 12MB/s read) but it's not super slow. Yeah, I ended up avoiding the Class 10 cards for that reason actually. It's nice to have so much free space now; I think I'm going to try installing Ubuntu in a chroot jail again.
The new PNY class 10 for tablets is now in stock at Newegg, just ordered one with free shipping.

I got this exact card -- Just arrived yesterday.. I am getting AWFUL performance from it. I mean it performed like 3MB/s write and 8MB/s read.. It only fluxuated by about +-1MB with various SD read_ahead changes.. So disappointed. The worst thing is my phone is NOTICEABLY worse-off with the card in (weird stutters, etc).
Which leads me to something else altogether -- Has anyone noticed that with no SD card in the phone it just flies? I mean even the old SD card which didn't SEEM to give me any stutters was a matter of night and day with it in our out.

I hope this helps someone. Still not sure why my write speeds are so slow on Android when I've seen them hanging around 12MB/s in Windows (When using FAT32).
Patriot has a lifetime manufacturer warranty on most of their memory. You should contact them about getting a replacement. I run their RAM on my custom built personal pc. It is super stable. Just hoping to help.

No, but I have found that cheaper/nonbranded cards tend to be slower. Read reviews before buying.
I've got a lexar 32gb class 10. It's absolutely terrible. It takes so long for pictures from the gallery to load after you take a picture for example. Anything using hte SD card is slow as molasses. Oddly every benchmark I throw at it shows high speeds, so I have no idea what is going on with it.
may be could try this (get rid the lba) could help the perfomance and compatibility ?
try read this thread (hope help), I'm not try it my self on my fasci, since my class 10 msd still on it's way send to me.

ordered the sensation today and wanna ask first how is the card that comes with the device? are people using it or most of you bought a new one?
2nd, which card would you recommend?
It's not a bad card, 8gb class 4 so it's fast enough for most everything. What is too bad is that the phones doesn't have more built in memory. I can fill 8gb fast so for me, a 16 GB card is minimum and the higher the class the better imho.
There are a lot of cards out there, I would recommend a name brand unit and at least class 6. I've got a 32gb class 10 from newegg and it works great (cant find link right now).

Newegg has the ADATA 16GB Class 10 card for $25 right now. I bought it for $35 when I got my phone last month & I thought even that price was worth it
Try not to buy anything that are related to storage on ebay or online in general, e.g. microsd card, external harddrive, usb stick...they tend to be always fake. Best to go to local stores with good reputation for these things.
I bought a Lexar 32GB class 10 microSDHC card.
17 MB/sec read
8 MB/sec write
this was using SD tool for android.
I am hoping that once S-OFF is achieved, and we get cyanogen running on this device, the speeds will improve. The card cost me about $90 shipped, and came with a USB to microSDHC adapter. At this point I am very disapointed in the card's performance. Even when using my computer to transfer the data to it, the best I got was about 8 MB/sec write.
Also after a full format on Windows 7, the card only shows 29.8 GB capacity
though the detailed figure was 32,005,685,248 Bytes
I am hoping this card is not a fake. Can anyone else confirm their benchmarks with a 32 GB lexar class 10?
locate a Lexar 16gb class 6 from a reputable dealer.
can be had for around $20.
I get around 7-9mb write and around 17-20mb read speed.
seems like about the same speed as the class 10 Lexar above.
32gb version is too expensive still. don't understand why they cost almost 5 times more when the capacity is only double.

Your capacity is correct. The difference is due to the fact that a properly calculated byte, kilobyte, megabyte, gigabyte, or terabyte is calculated in base-2. The manufacturers have long been in the habit of calculating in base-10, hence the difference in what's claimed and what you actually see.

I think it might be a bit much to imply that any online vendor should be avoided when purchasing flash memory. As long as it's from a reputable vendor (not a ebay seller or amazon seller), you should be OK and in the event that you end up with a fake you would be protected by the vendor's return policy.

hmm i read an article on the main xda page about microsd cards.. it says the sandisk one has better i/o and random reads and writes.. so now im really lost..well in the end.. u still cant transfer more than 4gb file onto your microsd card.

why cant you transfer more than 4gb file onto the card?
sorry for not being specific. You cant transfer more than a 4gb file because that's the limit for a fat32 microsd.... i believe.. lol
Yep, fat32 has a file size limit of 4Gb.
now i doubt there will be any difference between sd cards. We need a2sd or d2sd in order to evaluate better. On the HD2 there was a major difference between class 2 and a class 6 card. On the sensation i have tried class 2 and class 6 the performance seems the same.
