[Q] How can they sell these this cheap? - Fascinate Accessories

On ebay- how is this possible? Are these garbage? http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Micro-SDHC-...gital_Camera_Memory_Cards&hash=item3a5f1832d6
The same thing shopping on google is $100-$120 http://www.google.com/products?q=32...SearchBox&oe=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wf

my experience is that cheap ebay stuff is usually just as good. probably fell off a truck or the seller has some sort of connect. i'd trust it tho

they probably have like 50 of them so the price is not a issue for them Ebay is generally safe got my droid 2 for 50 bucks

Probably counterfeit
You have to be careful with media cards...there's quite a big counterfeiting business in them...from what I've read.

I wouldn't waste my time. These cards are most likely fake. They show up to windows, your phone, or whatever as 32 gb but will really be a lot less. Once at capacity, for example 2gb, extra data becomes corrupted. Having the sandisk logo doesn't mean anything, there is a lot of fakes out there. The general rule is that if somethings too good to be true, it is.

His feed back looks pretty good to me. It's super easy to check for 32 gig's obviously if it isn't there then contact the seller. Worst case you lose $12 for a couple extra gigs. I might buy one

I bought one its not much to loose ill tell ya how it is

This is very true. The digital camera folks have a lot to say about this. The cards can be formatted way beyond their actual capacity, and then fail dramatically. When they go, they're gone. Here's a couple of articles I found:

I wish you guys the best of luck, but I'd also be real careful about keeping your stuff backed up off-site. I'd sure hate to lose all my nandroids!

Thanks for the feedback guys. I have a $50 gift card to best buy so I'll buy a real one.

maybe you should just invest in one of those little micro sd to usb adapters and dump to the pc, or sync more to dropbox?

Music is a great way to fill up the microsd..

HTC G2 / Vision 32gb Micro SD Card **CHEAP**

I have shopped around for these and Ebay seems to be the best. Here is the one that I got. Very good price. $14.50 with free shipping. Sure beats paying over $80
How reliable will that card be at that price point? I have purchased many items from Ebay, and memory cards being one of them. I have never had a problem out of mine, but at that price it almost seems to good to be true. I am looking forward to an update.
I heard that some of them aren't actually a 32gb, I heard that they are actually less than that.

Yep, that's correct! Lots of BS USB drives and SD cards that are just 2 and 4 GB but the firmware is bogus.
I had bought one a few months ago and it worked great. And was a true 32 gigger. Then...... I got a phone Call while I was uploading mp3's and without thinking I just unplugged the USB cable. Well that's not good to do. Always properly unmount. Thats why i just ordered another one. I will keep you guys posted on how this one works. Should be here any day now.

Never buy flash on eBay. I bought a 32GB SDHC a few months ago, one of hundreds of similar ones being sold by multiple other sellers. On the computer it showed as 32GB, formatted correctly, and everything. But it was not even 1GB in truth.
There is a price it costs to produce even the worst 32GB cost, and that cost is much higher than 15$.
For a MicroSD, the best right now is the Wintec 16GB Class 10 one at 30$.

I'm not quite sure how that video proves that the SD card I just bought is a fake. What's your point exactly?
IMHO, I think it's strictly a reference to the price..........legit sellers can't come even close to it plus offer free or low shipping as well. Best way to check is to download and run the proggy I listed above. Anywho, I seen this scam playout on many USB thumb drives, would be good to confirm a cheap legit seller!

most likely, if you found a 32gb class 10, it's a fake.
google sosfakeflash and h2testw
make sure to test it properly with that h2testw. Simply connecting it to your computer / phone and formatting it will not tell you the true capacity, since it has been reprogrammed to lie about its true capacity... You have to see how much actual data you can write to it and still recover.
Well what happen with this? Was it a fake? Test?

What he is trying to say (although somewhat unclearly) is that counterfeit SD cards often have markings that are not quite correct. If you Google around there are articles or forum posts with photos of fake SD cards versus the real ones.
Of course, there are good fakes that get the markings right. So the only way to know for sure is to test for both capacity and write speed, as others already mentioned.

[Q] SanDisk 64GB MicroSDXC - Amazon Reduced Price?

Hi
Ive had my HTC Sensation (XE Beats) for about a month now - and absolutely love it. I've dropped my iPod and now use my phone as my mobile music player (the soundstage is great, and I use PowerAMP who's EQ is just superb!)... my iPod was a 30GB Video (from 2005?) - but I'm currently using the bundled MicroSD card which is 16GB (but only 11gb of that is available to use )...
I have looked at 32gb cards, and have read all the problems about getting fakes which are more like 3.2gb. But I've seen 64gb cards are now "available". And this is more attractive seeing as I was looking to buy a 64gb iPod touch anyway.
I put available in quotes there because... well they aren't exactly readily available (from UK stockists)... and even when they are - the delivery/dispatch dates are extremely vague - like that of Amazon.
Amazon are currently selling the SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra SDXC card for £99.99 - a good £65 off the RRP. IMO i think this is a reasonable price for such a new technology.
But the thing is... how can they sell these cards at such a low price? When even the smaller, less known brands such as Komputerbay are selling for more/a similar price?
And why the 1-2 month dispatch estimate? Only until a few weeks back the listing was 'Out of stock'....
How legit do you think this is? There are no reviews so I can't tell if you'd even get a card.... let alone how long you'd have to wait.
(Side note... it'd be great if you could post links to other stockists selling these hi-capacity cards!)

[Q] HTC One X Dissection - Expandable memory?

Though I was holding out for the S3, could not help pass off a $49 upgrade on the HTC One X. I have seen disassembly pics of the HTC One X and am wondeing if they use a microSD card for the internal memory (like Samsung did for Captivate? ) and if it would be possible to swap out the memory card with a cloned say 32 gb / 64 gb card?

Oh man, I'll be so pissed if that turns out to be the case. If so, why would they give the XL only 16GB when the Tegra edition has 32?
Maybe the difference in price between the S4 and T3 is the same as a 16GB mSD card and 32GB. There's always trade-offs to be made in hardware design. HTC probably wanted to keep the phone below a certain threshold regarding component cost.

I was wondering the same thing the other day. I love almost everything I'm seeing about this phone but the 16GB (actually, only about 12GB usable) thing is really making me hesitant to buy it. Too bad the captions in the pictures aren't translated!
I don't see any microsd or microsd slot in any of those pics. Internal memory is usually a soldered chip on the board. Would be pretty difficult to swap those out.

Actually, none of the Samsung phones ever used internal microSD cards. Samsung phones always use NAND chips (Captivate included).
In the past, HTC always use miroSD cards for internal storage. But it may have changed recently. Who knows.

Yes, and the solder joints are usually tiny on the chips. Very difficult to do by hand (if not almost impossible), with little room for error.
The words in simplified Chinese are simply describing how to take the phone apart. The original pictures are a part of a series of pictures teaching you how to take apart the phone and the text are things like "The camera is connected to the main circuit board, so be sure to be careful when disassembling." I went through all of the pictures on the original site and none of it mentions where data storage is.

Thanks for the info, but WOW is that a small amount of space. I have close to 5GB on just pictures and videos alone.
I was thinking about google music, however, I mostly listen to music while in the subway; which means no reception/wifi. I had my sights on getting this phone, I guess I may need more time to think about it. If HTC was able to put a slot for a microSIM, why not a micro SD as well? . But, like someone stated in an earlier post, I'm sure it is to force people to use the cloud, which uses data, and ultimately creates overages.
I've been waiting to see a teardown to see if replacing the nand would be possible. If it was that would make a huge market for broken International One-X boards. I can't judge by the pictures if it's possible. Usually on a teardown there's at least 20 pics.
As far as AT&T's plan and why they knocked us down to essentially 10 gigs..
You had one thing right when you said cloud dependency, but I think it goes much further than that. Think of the 23GB free Dropbox space they're giving us all, the Google Music they are all undoubtedly expecting us to use. It's the precursor to their future attempt to hold your data hostage! What are you going to do if you don't pay your bill and your service goes out? You can't access your dropbox on the go, you can't stream your music through Google Play. They know that nobody wants to actually fill that measly 10 gigs with music. It's an attempt to get you more motivated to pay your monthly bill, and to extend your contract for another two years once this one is up. It's funny how they give you 23 gigs on your dropbox for 2 years, the same as your contract length. Something tells me that extending your contract will get you another 2 years once it's up. It might look like simple marketing, but honestly it's quite shady of them.

LG Nexus 5 16GB - Still worth it?

Hey guys tomorrow I may be getting a new smartphone and I was thinking if the LG Nexus 5 (16GB) is still worth it. The maximum I can afford is 350 euros. I'm not gonna pay more than that. I also have the option to choose between this one and LG G3S 8GB or LG G2 16GB. Which should I get and why? Thank you.
Out of those three get the Nexus, although if you can find one get a 32GB just for peace of mind. As for why, it's a Nexus so it's just better

Be careful when buying from craigslist IMO. I bought mine from a guy who posted his ad on craigslist.. worked for 2-3 days then it wouldn't work. it turned out the phone was stolen and got blacklisted at least in Canada.
I haven't had trouble on craigslist. If you go that route have the person meet you at your service provider so they can check the imei. Works for me.
Yuup! Totally worth it. I have been using a Nexus 5 16GB for about 4 months now. Although a 32GB version is recommended if u can afford it, since Nexus 5 don't have External Memory!

If you game a lot on your phone, get the 32GB.

Well, I'll learn to survive at the limit. In the future (2,5+ years later if it endures all the pain) I'll probably switch to N6 32GB.
The fact that the OS's size is 5GB sounds like a 'tricky scam' from the producers to me. The phone should have about 21GB total memory not 16 then.

I had one and sold it, couldnt deal with their bull**** system. So many bugs and quirks, granted its a new company, but not for me. Went back to the N5 for the stability.

Samsung is really screwing us by taking away external storage, look!

I was at best but checking out the note 5 and I saw this. I'm really not buying this now. They are pretty much forcing you to buy the 64gb version for $80 more dollars. 11gb free GTFO!
how many times are you going to post the same thread? This isnt a true Tmo device as this was from best buy which is said to take up more storage space than one that you would buy from TMO. This thread should be deleted.

Here you go. I've had mine since this morning. Although I purchased the 64GB version, roughly 11GB is being used including bloat ware. You can relax now.
I have the 32 with 113 apps installed and I have 21 gigs left

20gb free after installing 80+ apps and syncing all my email accounts.
I keep seeing your post everywhere, it is sensationalist garbage.
Is this real life?

Meh I have a gs6 and don't really miss the storage - i can always use otg to compensate if need be
150 apps, 32GB version......
Pointless thread...
Everyone is going to have to get use to the idea of no SD card... really, unless you save everything, delete nothing, store all your music on your phone, never delete pictures and take 10 minute videos in 4K frequently... 32GB with cloud services is plenty.... I was going to buy the 64GB but really thought about it and glad I did not. Paying for the 64GB is like asking samsung to kick you in the privates and take your money at the same time, 128gb even more so. $200+ premium for memory that only cost maybe $15 to $25 in real life is just dumb... Apple pulls the same crap too... Yes, it takes a little more management of your device but honestly well worth it to save $100 to $200... plus with unlimited high speed data with TMO and the fact that it's my Jump On Demand Device that I will probably get rid of in a few months... just not worth it.
:good:
Would it be a nice bonus if it did, yes... it also be nice if it went to work for me, cooked my dinner and washed my car... however, i live with the fact that it can't do those things for me, so too I live with it not having SD Slot....
21gb free on my 32gb Note 5, with plenty of apps installed.
Just finished setting mine up.

Theres mine with about 120 apps installed. Though I wanted the 64 gig, it wasn't avail in store and after having a 64gig Nexus 6 and not using half of it, I decided to save some money. I have unlimited LTE on TMobile so cloud usage for me is just fine.
Op, you know those phones at stores have a crap load of demo software on them, right?

I do now thanks for everyone who posted. Even though most have a lot of apps installed, it's the videos and photos that will eat up the memory.

No, you are wrong. You don't have to get USE to it. Stand up tell Samsung to **** off by not upgrading to this POS and email them about it.

Then dont buy it. i for one am happy with my Note 5, thank you samsung especially for the 4gb of memory now!!
Now that I got the crick out of my neck from that sideways picture, you also need to note (pun totally intended) that there has been ~5GB of files added to the phone. I had 51GB free on my 64GB Note 5, and still have 20-some after copying my music over.
