[Q] does G2x have built in 16gb storage? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I think the spec says it has built in 16gb storage but I see my G2x shows only 5.77gb. Am I missing something?

i thought the specs said 8gb internal with expandable SD card

There is 8GB of storage built in. It is partitioned to allow space for the Android OS, with the remaining memory for storage. The device memory itself can be expanded by a 32GB micro sdhc memory card, but the phone does not come shipped with one, so you would have to purchase it.

Yea 8gb internal and supports up to a 32gb using an expandable SD card slot.

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.

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?

[Q] Difference Between 16GB and 32GB Versions?

Hello,
I have a dumb question.
What is the difference between the 16 and 32 GB versions (besides the obvious)?
Is this the amount of internal storage on the device? Or is it the maximum total amount? I thought I read somewhere that the number represents the amount you can upgrade to, not the amount onboard?
Thanks!
J
Just that one has 16gb internal storage and one has 32gb.

So both of them also use an external flash memory card? What is the maximum size (Mb) the external card can be?

32 GB is about the largest micro SD you can find. So that is the limit of what you can ad to the tablet itself. But the dock has a SD card so you can add another 32+ that way. And the dock has 2 USB ports where you could plug in a hard drive for TBs more storage.

wow so if you get the 32 GB version you can have:
32 Gb (built-in) + 32 Gb (tablet) + 32 Gb (dock) = 96 Gb
the next thing i will be getting is an external solid state drive for the USB ports
I have a 32 gig class 10 patriot in my 32 gigger Nothing in my dock yet!
Anyone know if it's possible to upgrade the internal storage? 16GB is probably enough for me, but I was just wondering. With a bit of luck it would just require opening up the case and replacing an internal SD card. Has anyone opened one up yet?

32GB (built-in) + 32GB (microSD) + 64GB (SD) = 128GB
But remember, you can only save apps to the internal memory.

Way more than that. You always connect external hard drives to the USB ports! Terabytes of stored for your TF!
One thing to note is that the 32gb models seem to have less quality issues than the original batch of 16gb units. But that is probably just due to 2nd and 3rd run build improvements. My 32gb doesn't seem to have many of the physical issues that many people are talking about.
What about 64gb sdhc

I would be shocked if its like the Win Phones where its just a micro SD card in there. Likely its soldered to the board because its going to be high speed NAND flash as its used for the OS and Application.
That is one of the reasons, I would bet, that the 32gb is $100 more than a $32 gig card you can get on Newegg. Its not just a Kingston memory card, its likely NAND on die. Now, whether or not you need that much high speed memory is up to you.
That is why I opted for the 16gig, I will probably only have a couple of gigs of apps, but the 4 gigs of music I have on it and then most of the pictures/video etc I would put on the SD card for easy swapping out of content.
If it really is the case that the 32gig is having fewer issues than the 16 and my 16 has a defect then I would upgrade just for that purpose.

Sure it is - any over 4GB SD is SDHC.
But I guess SDXC is being meant?

I just got a 16GB from the latest Best Buy run. They must be improved too, because I notice none of the minor issues some reviews complained about early on, like chassis flex.
About sixteen.
And then the world changed:
http://gizmodo.com/5805482/the-worlds-first-64gb-microsd
Now it's:
32GB (internal) + 64GB microSD + 64GB SDHC= 160GB Total
P.S. I have a 16GB and have none of the issues so far (knocks on wood).
I'm pretty sure that 64GB microSD wouldn't work in the trsnsformer as its SDXC not SDHC. That and probabaly won't see it in stores too soon.

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.

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.

Swap Internal SD with External USB HDD?

right now am limited to the 8gb internal storage (cs918), i have seen apps that claim to swap the internal sd with an external sd but even the biggest sd card is 128gb max
external hdds are much cheaper and offer much more storage. can get a 1tb usb hdd for the same price or less than a 128gb sd card
is it possible to swap the internal sd card with an external usb HDD?
hope that makes sense
two things
all android boxes, especially the RK's, have a dead slow internal storage, and every external sd card or USB will give you twice the speed at least, so i feel your pain.
what i was told, the only way to do it is to fiddle with vold.fstab
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2346389
however, i have never tried it.
ps, for more detailed stuff, head at freaktab.com
