[Q] micro sd card memory question - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

can somebody tell me if a class 10 32 GB micro sd memory card will work for the Droid X? Or do I need to get the class 6 or less for it to function properly?
Thank You

4GB Micro SD Card

Hi
I was just wondering if anyone has ever used a 4gb SD Micro card (with adapter ofcourse) on their Xda 2 and if so, is it fully compatible?
I was gonna go for the normal 4gb SD card but then that won't be compatible with the newer Xda's should I decide to upgrade since they all take the Sd Micro's..
Cheers,
Riz.
not sure about the 4gb version but i have kingston 2gb micro with a sd adaptor and that works like a charm
Hi
I´m currently using a SanDisk ultra II 4gb and it works ok. I have qtek2020 with wm5
regards
There is a difference between 4GB Sd and 4GB Micro SD Card.
The Micro SD > 2GB is only available as SDHC card, and that is not
(yet) supported by HTC
Our apologies regarding the FAQ, it is currently incorrect and the department who is in charge of the website has been informed.
The FAQ should state that we support up to 4GB with SD cards and 2GB with Mini and Micro-SD. We do not currently support SDHC/2.0 and as such we could not say as to whether these formats would work correctly with your device.
So as to repeat your question on capacity briefly, your HTC P3300 is supported for use with up to a 2GB Micro-SD card.

can blackstone read 32gb micro sd?

i bought a 32Gb micro sd card but my blackstone doesnt recognize it, is it a driver-software issue, or hardware incompatibility? Is there any way to make it work?
the micro sd card doesnt have specified the brand or the class on it, only have microSD HC logo.

The 16Gb speed 6 does't see on Gtab !

I have 16GB Class 6,and 4GB class4,Fat 32 .Both work on my Nokia N8.
My Gtab was able to see my 4GB class4 after update 3389 ver.only.
Have anyone test on 16 and 8Gb yet??

I have a Kingston 16GB class 4 microSD card. My gtab sees it just fine. One time it didn't recognize the card. I popped it out and back in again, and the gtab recognized the card immediately.
I had the same thing happen with a SanDisk Micro SDHC card. I popped it out and back in and it was recognized.
Beyond that, I don't understand why a PC will not recognize the removable SD card when it's in the GTab. I'm used to connecting my Droid X (previously by Blackberry Storm) to my PC and treating it as a removable drive. I'm surprised I cannot do that on the GTab.

Someone mentioned that Winamp has an automount option that allows seeing sdcard2 from PC...
Mine is a Polaroid 16 Gig Class 2 Micro SD HC that the Gtab does not see. Do I need to buy a new micro sdhc card?
my Sandisk 8GB Micro SD class 4 card works. I am awaiting a pair of 16 Gb class 4 cards (Sandisk), I hope to have no issues with them.

I'll let you know once I have it. I'm hoping it will arrive early next week.
What brand of card are you using. I personally try to stick with Sandisk if possible.

faulty microsdhc card reader on TF700?

I just got my Sandisk Ultra 32gb microsdhc UHS-1 (Class 10) card from http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007XZM6VG/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00 today and my TF700 (rooted) is unable to mount the SD Card. Everytime I try to "Mount External Storage" from settings, it displays "Preparing External Storage" for 1 second and then disappears, with no SD card mounted. I've formatted this SD card using FAT32 (4kb, 8kb, and 16kb cluster sizes), NTFS, and exFAT file systems as well as using my phone (Droid X) and none of them have been able to be mounted on my TF700, although the FAT32 formatted SD card was able to be mounted/recognized by my Droid X. However, I'm still not even sure if it's a faulty card or a faulty card reader because my TF700 was perfectly able to recognize and mount my phone's 16gb microsdhc card (class 2 or 4) without any problems.
I've read in another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1761861) that people were having some trouble using microSDXC cards, but the one I have is just microSDHC (UHS-1), so there shouldn't be any problems recognizing it. Does anyone else have any idea what the problem might be?

Everyone's having issues with microSD cards lol...Strange that SDHC and SDXC both aren't working right. Does anyone else have a SDHC card that is working? I can look at it when I get my tablet tomorrow, but I'm not sure if I have a SDHC card laying around.
I've just confirmed that my 32gb class 10 (UHS-1) card formatted in FAT32 works on 2 separate phones but is not recognized by my TF700 (32gb grey model). I've also confirmed that the TF700 is able to recognize and mount two separate 16gb microsdhc cards (class 2 or 4, obviously not UHS) formatted in FAT32. I'm beginning to wonder if it's just the UHS-1 compatibility that's causing the problem (maybe TF700's are not compatible with UHS speeds?) or if 32gb is too much for the TF700.
I have a 32gb microsdhc (and no at the moment I can't tell you anything about the class or speed or whatever) but I can say it works fine where my 64gb sdxc won't mount.

It looks to me like people are specifically having issues with UHS-1 cards. There's like a 6 page thread about it in the General forum. I know my 16GB microSDHC (not UHS-1) works perfectly fine.
im trying to buy one on amazon, can anyone post a 32gb that works

did you use SDFormatter to format the card? it might be good idea to do so prior to initial use.
My 32gb class 2 SDHC works fine. but my 64gb sdxc, which was fine in my xoom, is not recognized. Both are formatted the same
This is interesting. I have a dock and when I put the microsd into the SD converter, it works great. But if I take it out of the converter and put it in as a micro into the pad, the pad knows it is there, but will not mount it. This is very strange.
I found that the micro slot handles a 32gb card just fine, but not the 64 gb card. The SD slot in the dock handles all cards. I hope they come out with an update that corrects this.
Microsd card Lexar 32gb
I have the Microsdhc 32gb class 10 from Lexar i bought from amazon. This works fine, but just got my scandisk 64gb in mail today(uhs-1 class 10) and the tf700t doesnt recognize it like the rest of u guys. guess ill put it on my phone for now until they fix this issue.
I had the same problem with my kingston 16GB HC4 card.
My old 4GB HC6 card worked, but my 16GB not.
Reformatted with sdformatter and it didn't worked.
Changed the label of the card from "ASUS 16GB" to "16GB", and behold, it worked.
Tried to change the label back to "ASUS 16GB" and it is still working.
Strange problem...
Future firmware update will fix it.

Micro SDcard receptacle
I can top some cards not working. Got my TF700 Wednesday and was pleased that everything seemed to be ok. Started to insert Micro SD and discovered the slot was empty. No receptacle was in the slot. Card was flush withtablet body, had to retrieve it with a pin. Replacement on the way. Asus needs to give little stickers to QC inspectors so they can tell who lets this kind of thing through. UPDATE: Asus tech told me to use small object to press edge piece of metal inside MicroSD slot. Viola the receptacle is alive and working.

ASUS TF700T 32GB Grey
I have tried:
2GB SanDisk (normal Micro SD)
4GB SanDisk SDHC
16GB SanDisk SDXC
Also took the card out of my RAZR Maxx and it too did nothing in the device.
I also note that there is absolutely zero indication that I have even plugged anything into the slot. There no message "preparing media" that I have seen others post. I also do not see any option for preparing any external storage from the menu in settings.
I am wondering if the slot is bad, or the device has issues with SanDisk cards.
Detect it for a second
Hy, i recibed the infinity today and bought it with a microsd card y got from amazon

[Q] 64GB MicroSD Class 10 slower than 32GB Class 10?

Hey all,
i bought a 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 / UHS 1 for use in my HTC Sensation XE. It came formatted with exFAT which isnt an option on the Sensation so i reformatted the card to FAT32 (allocation unit size 32KB, was the default setting in the tool i used). Now, when i transfer files while accessing the card via card reader in my computer, the write speed is somewhere between 9 and 10 mb/s, which is fine. When i use the card in my phone though, the write speed for large files is only about 5 mb/s. The really odd thing: for the last months i've been using a 32GB card that also has class 10, and it gave me those 9-10mb/s while using it in the phone, too. Which means the bigger card is considerably slower than the old one, although the speed class is the same, and they both work at they same speed when plugged in in the card reader. Why is the new card working so much slower in my phone?
