is micro sd card sandisk 8 gb class 4 good for apps?
if it be like the internal memory of the phone?
Hmm. i guess its ok. today i ordered Team 16GB class 06 micro sd for my SGS
I've read sandisk is not fully compatible with the sgs so it would be better to buy a different one.. kingston should do the work!

Is that so?
But what i heard was sandisk working like a charm with SGS. don't know for sure because i didn't use it
I've never used 'em too, but according to can't-remember-which forum sandisks work well at the beginning... sooner or later, however, they give some problems, like difficulties on reading/writing... after your reply I went to the forum again and read that probably you can encounter this problem only with android 2.1 or lesser so if you've got froyo you should be ok... sorry for causing confusion, just tried to help making things clear ^^
ps sorry 4 my english, but I haven't practised it very much lately

So what brand currently are you using ?
I have always used SanDisk cards in all my gear, have about a dozen of them. Never had any trouble.
In fact the very card the OP mentions (SanDisk MicroSD 8GB Class 4) is in my i9000 right now.
Samsung Accessories
I am using my data cable to transfer file from phone to PC. The transfer rate is low and was in search of card reader i can used it with my samsung phone card or will i have to purchase some other samsung accessories.
Maxflash micro sd rox
i use 8GB transcend class 2. works fine.. i stored all my videos included HD videos. works too good.. with stock froyo 2.2
Recently bought sandisk 32gb class 4micro sd card, no problems as of now noticed using froyo 2.2.1.
I've always used Sandisk, usually when I read about problems its non-Sandisk brands. I've had my Class 2 32GB card since a couple of days after they came out, more than a year now, no problems whatsoever.
You don't really need more than Class 2 in your phone, its fast enough for decoding and encoding 720P video, and I don't know of anything that would need quicker read/write speeds than that. If you can afford faster you'll notice a difference when loading stuff onto the card from your computer, but in the phone there won't be any particular difference in performance. I've benchmarked a non-Sandisk Class 4 32GB card (mymemory brand) in crystaldisk and its performance was better for reading (although again, the Sandisk was fast enough for anything you'd need to do in the phone), but its write performance was worse across the board, particularly when doing smaller or random writes (which for the most part is probably a better mimic for in-phone use than large sequential R/W activities). Whenever I've seen non-Sandisk ones benchmarked Vs Sandisk ones the Sandisk ones are always better within the same Class, and even above their Class, as I've seen in the benchmarks I did.
I definitely agree. The cost to performance of the higher class cards is not worth it.
Can somebody offer me a relatively cheap 32gb micro sd card? I bought one on Ebay, but it was fake (luckily i got my money back).
Kingston su**** my kingston microsd card (8gb 04) don't work anymore . . . i dunno why .
I'm using a SanDisk 4GB Class2 card and hard to reformat it twice in the last 5 weeks (somehow corrupted after reboot).
unfortunately I cannot tell you my exact rom version since I upgraded, but it was 2.2.1 on some doc rom with speedmod kernel.

Hi guys, im new to pda's but they are the biz!!!

John
I got a 1gb SanDisk sd card through ebay for 40 quid. Works a treat w my SPV M1000 (read "XDAII"). I do a lot of interviewing in my job; this is the best dictaphone I ever did see, plussed up with it being a phone, emailer, web-browser, word processor (in emergencies), Excel machine, camera, video camera, mp3 player, calculator, games machine, etc etc.
Outrageous little machine, given a good slab of extra memory!
Now if they could just make it waterproof...
(i already got an aluminium case so i can drop as much as i like!)
good stuff!!!!!! thanks....
how about the 2gb sd card i have seen on ebay would that work?????
2 GB SD hmmm... I bet it is slow as bloody hell.
Chinese made cards
Hi Guys
There is specific advise on which cards to buy. Don't buy chinese made cards as these seem most likely to cause lock ups when using TomTom! :evil:
See thread :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12453&highlight=
Thanks to Edsub for his advise.
I have 1x sandisk 1gb (chinese made :x )
& 3 x extreMEmory 1gb (german guarantee but don't know where they were made)
I have had a lot of problems with lock-ups when using bloody annoyingly infuriating TomTom!!!!!!! GRRRRRR!!!
how do you remove the card, i have a 4gig one which i put in my new kaiser last night, i just went to remove it to put some more stuff on it, but it wont come out, the old varioII model you used to be able to push it in and it would spring out, this one does not appear to be doing that.. anyone else got issues or is my unit broke already ?
it reads in the phone ok as 4gig so it is working...
any help appreciated.
right got memory card out but it was a struggle, is it supposed to be spring loaded ? as mine definately is not ?
I have the same trouble with a Sandisk 4GB SDHC card. I read on another forum that this is a problem peculiar to Sandisk, others should work as advertised, however cannot confirm personally.
this is indeed a scandisk card....
it does seem to go in just dont trust it as it is not smooth like the vario II.
i will see if i can get another card and test. not had any issues with scandisk previously, but there is always a first for everything.
thanks for the reply.
Is the rubber cover supposed to come off completely? Mine seems to be attached at the right side... i've pulled it quite a bit, but i dont wanna break it off :S
Are you supposed to push the cover 'up' or just pull it off!?
the plastic cover hiding the micro slot just lifts up (it does not come completely off, you can then move it to one side whilst you put the card in) once in slide it back over and push it into place..
I've has my Kaiser for 6 weeks now and have had this issue with the 4gb sandisk card since the day i got it. I thought it was my phone that was busted. Ive been grabbing the card and forcefully pulling it out with my fingernails and have had it in and out probably 20 times with no damage to phone or card. Not the best way to do buisness but I didnt know what other options I had.
I'm actually a little ticked off at the way HTC is designing their card slot covers as of late- first the S710 fiasco, and now this annoying cover that doesn't seem to like being opened...
I have the same problem with the Sandisk 4gig card in my 8525 as well. I think the card is slightly over spec size because other cards click and pop out, just not this card. I had to use tweasers the first time to remove the card. Then I actually carefully trimmed/scraped the sides of my card with an X-Acto Knife which helped the fit.
I had problems with my Sandisk 4GB cards, too. But only the first 2 or 3 times I removed each card (I have 2). Either I've subconsciously figured out the trick to removing them or the slot has trimmed the cards so they don't hang up.
i have the same problem with my sandisk card. I used a really slim sharp knife to get it out.
Which SD ard to Use?
Hi guys,
I read the troubles with the Sandisk 4GB cards. Glad I read your post, I was just about to order a Sadisk 4GB.
Can you please reconfirm which SD cards 4GB, 6GB, 8GB work fine Kiaser?
This may help many of us.
Thanks
I hae a Sandisk 4G card. It comes out after pushing it in slightly - the spring works for me. After testing this 10 times, the card comes out 7 times. I think it depends on how you push it in.

I Installed a 4GB sandisk card last night - went in with no problems....! Doesn't seem to be a particularly tight fit..
Ohh err missus
I got my TyTN II today and I've got a sandisk 4GB microSD and it pops in and out with no problems. It's a **** trying to get the rubber cover off when you've got no nails though
i tried it, too. you have to turn the rubbercover to 180° to the right side. then the slot is free to get the card in and out. a spring is definitly in the slot. my 1GB sandisk slides out easily but only when the cover is away.
The cover rotates???? I was ready to tear it off already!!! Thanks for the tip
I've bought a Kaiser last friday but I've had the same problem with Sandisk 4Gb. I've thought that was from the phone so I've changed it but it xas the same problem Off course because it always was with a Sandisk 4Gb...
So now I know that it comes from Sandisk card ! Thanks for you !
Do you know wich card works perfectly with Kaiser ? Sandisk 6 Gb ?
Thanks for your help !
i dont think its a bug. how often do u change the card? normaly it should jump a little bit out of the slot so u can grab it with your fingernails or the stick. it could be that the 1gb is a little bit thinner as the bigger ones. i got my caliper here and its 0.75mm thick measured with the little sticker on the one side. so now we can check if the 4 oder 6gb version have the same measures thand the 1gb.
Im looking to get a new 32gb micro sd card for my wife's Galaxy S5. I cant decide between the Samsung Evo Micro SDHC and the Sandink Micro SDHC class 10 UHS. Which one do you guys recommend?
I have the sandisk ultra 32gb and it works perfectly. Either one should work great.
I have the SanDisk 128gb no issues

I have a SanDisk myself but I was just wondering if there was any difference in speed or durability between the two. They are the same about the same price. Anybody care to comment on the Samsung microsd?
Any branded one's should work find, remember not to buy from ebay or amazon, only from reputated or authorized dealer.
I have a SanDisk that only gives me problems. So I bought a Samsung is undoubtedly much better, no problem in 2 months.
I'm using a 64GB Samsung EVO and has no problem so far.
I have Samsung 64 Pro with the following specs:
Read : up to 90MB/s with UHS-1 interface
Write : up to 50MB/s with UHS-1 interface
I cannot tell if the transfer between the internal memory and the scard is fast but when I compare the speeds by copying to/from internal and and copying to/from sdcard via computer the sdcard is way slower.
It is probably something related to UHS-1 interface because the speeds through USB 3 do not go above 10-12 MBps. Very lame.
Im leaning more towards the Samsung Evo micro sd just to try it out. Ive read that its water and magnet proof. Is that also true for the Sandisk micro sd?

I got the Sandisk Ultra Plus 64gb Microsdxc Class 10 UHS-1.
Works good.
Benchmark:

Write: 10.96MB/s ~ 11.60MB/s
Yeah I have an unbranded 'class 10' 32 GB from eBay however it is definitely not class 10 as it kept screwing up the photos I took.
Definitely make sure you get a branded one!

I'm curious why you didn't consider the 64GB, the price differences isn't that much, and extra storage never leaves you short of.

Shes not really a power user. She had a 16gb card for the longest and never ran out of space. 32gb should be more than enough. I might give her my 64gb card and get the 128gb but I dont think I need that much space.

Technically your title is right if you'd purchase two 64gb SD cards here is the 128 gb incase we all get extra Christmas cash http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00P3NMVVU/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?qid=1418130321&sr=8-8&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70
my link is fine, just chose the 128 from the size selection tab.
I updated OP , sorry for the confusion
Purchased
Bought it! Thanks man. I have a Samsung Pro 64GB (their top tier MicroSD) and I can't wait for this bigger size. Besides, I don't need that fast speed or durability that their Pro provides (it uses MLC). Besides, the EVO should last me longer than I would use it for anyways.
Does Samsung make the pro version of this?

I haven't been able to find out, I think this is their first 128gb
I think I'm gonna have to get one of these!
lol. 2 weeks after I bought the 64 GB and it still haven't arrived. I really should wait to buy something in future.
Hopefully the price will gradually down so I can get it later with great price
Other than the fact that its Samsung brand how does it compare to the Lexar 128gb micro SD card here:

If anyone here has this Samsung 128GB EVO microSDXC card, can you run the CrystalDiskMark benchmark on PC, and also the A1 Benchmark on Android?
Hi there. I've been using my Mate 9 with Samsung Evo 64Gb card without any issues. I ordered 256Gb UHS-1 version and it arrived today. Although it's Class 10 card, and UHS-1 require special hardware, but should work fine but at slightly lower speeds, I have a notification that says that it's a low speed SD card. I formated it, to no avail. Warning is still there.
Has someone else had this issue? If so, how did you resolve it? Thanks!
Did you get a genuine SD Card?
