SanDisk microSDXC 64GB works in Sensation XE - HTC Sensation

Hi all,
just put a SanDisk microSDXC 64GB in my Sensation XE (ARHD 6.6.2) and it works perfectly.
As the card comes formatted with extFAT, the phone flags a problem with the card after booting up and asks if the sd card should be reformated. Just do it (make sure you backup everything on the card if you have already stored something on it) and the microSDXC gets formated with FAT32 - and voila - you have a working 64GB microSDXC card in your Sensation XE.
Side note: I had a 32GB class 10 card in it before and I cannot see any performance differences to the 64GB class 6 card.
Enjoy!

Isnt microSDXC suppose to be faster than the current microSD.
Cant be arsed to do a google search at the moment. Doing a some editing at the moment ;_;

Amazon Gold box deal today!
Not sure when it ends and unfortunately I think its only for US residents sorry!
60 plus shipping (free 2day shipping if you have a prime account) for a 64 gb class 10! At 72 bux I was on the fence for the class 6, but for class 10 it's even less than the class 10, this baby is mine! LOL

Yeah I tried to order it from UK and it didn't allow it which is s shame. But the 32GB only costs about £5 more.

yeah i have a 64 gb microsdxc in my sen4g for a few months now, but when they had a sale for 80+shipping and it works perfectly including estimating how many you still have left (i only have about 10gb n the thing hehe) in the picture and video count...
now kinda kicking myself for not waiting...
and actually what a lot of people found out is that for the most part most hc readers also have the ability to xc but dont get the speed increase

Just bought 64GB. Sandisk Ultra Micro SD SDXC UHS-I 64GB Class 10 30MB/s

Yes i got 64Gb sandisc microsd and it works fine

Sandisk + Amazon = trouble
I bought one of these 64 Gb cards in February 12. Two days ago, with 48 gig in use, the card completely died. Even specialist software can't read. it.
As this occurred within 6 months, under British law, I'm entitled to a replacement. Amazon basically told me to go away.
So, be careful, & make sure you back up regularly! (I do! )

The phone doesn't support ntfs or exfat?
Is it possable to do it?

what apps are you running of your SD card? my desire goes slow on larger apps (2MB+) on anything lower than class 6. Non rooted desire seems fine with <class 6 and general file use, rooted desire and more things on the SD is a performance hit
none yet, haven't rooted yet...waiting for froyo

Micro SD card deals

I went looking for a microSD card over the weekend and was really disappointed in the prices I found. A lot of the deals were already sold out at Fry's and CompUSA (Tiger Direct).
I'd like to start this thread to help others (and me ) find the best deals on expanded memory for our phones.
Any good finds?
This 16BG class 10 card was on sale this weekend at Fry's for around $10, but it was gone by 9:30 on Saturday morning.

You may want to look into getting Sandisk branded cards instead of just any old card.
Some of the class 10 cards out there have atrocious small block random read/write speeds, and that has been a major issue for the Nook Color world. That being said, we aren't running a complete OS off the SD card on our skyrockets, but even running apps off the card may cause speed issues.
Nook Color SD Card Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005633
All of the benchmark data in that thread summarized into a google docs spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjPE3ZAD2eVudE9vZmQ3aHlfTkFvU2J4ZUplRDJQTEE
I can't vouch for any cards other than what I've seen -- Class 10 Patriot, Class 10 A-Data, 3x Class 4 SanDisks, and an unmarked SanDisk. Everything (including the unmarked SanDisk) except for the Class 2/4 SanDisks were atrocious in running a SD card based OS on my Nook. My Class 4 SanDisks benchmarked somewhere between 20x and 40x faster than the other cards for small block writes.

This is not the first time I have heard the Sandisk 64Gb microsd works after a reformat. Now they are down to $150 for a class 6 and I am seriously about to try one out.

Thanks, that looks like a good quality card. I was going to hold off on buying a microsd for my phone, but $27 for 16GB and those speeds people are posting looks really good. In for one.
So to wrap up the 64gb arc, it works on the SR without any glitch? Cos me want it!

Anyone buying this?
Just checking the user reviews: Pic is of Class 4 but there are differing reviews about receiving Class 2 or Class 4 cards.
Where is the seller stating the class of the card, aside from the pics?
I recommend getting the SanDisk class 4 over wintec class 10 I bought 3 16gb cards last year, and both class 2 sandisks outperformed class 10 wintec in every benchmark, especially random read/write speed. SanDisk was 4 times faster. And I did not get a defective wintec. Mine tested the same as others. Both SanDisk I got preform over class 10 speeds, and many others get the same results with SanDisk.

class 4 has better read/write than a class 10. For us that's better BC we have tons of photos, music, apps. Etc all of which are small files when compared to full length movies n such. That's why a class 4 is better than a class 10.

bull**** man class 10 have much better read/write, because it's just faster... if u want better performance, on SAME CARD, i mean on one class 4, and second same u have bad feeling - u need to change allocation size unit - only here is difference for files. Believe me, i have 4 cards for now. Class 10 (in phone), class 4, class 8, and one no-name (without class?) and best of all is class 10.
It's just imposible that class 4 can be better than class 10...
and at the end:
1. u using your card only for phone? Coz when i get full card in my camera - i can easy change it to card from phone, and it's just better...
2. even if class 4 have better read/write (but this is just impossible) why u care? Except price, why? U can't record videos in real HD on this phone, because phone is not made for recording vids... and this is only one reason why u need better read/write... even on class 2 u can play games without any errors or something..
So class 4 sells cheaper than a class 10 because it's a much better card. Makes a lot of sense! ;D
Sent from my HTC Sensation
Class 4 does not have a better read/write speed than a class 10, but to achieve class 10 speeds (10MB+/second write speed), you sacrifice random access speed. A slow random access speed impacts things like playing music or looking at pictures.
There is really no need to get a class 10 for a phone unless you're seriously that impatient when it comes to copying your few gigs over the first time you use it.
There was a HUGE thread about classes and it came down to Class 4 being the better choice for mobile phones. For more information just look for threads on the subject and see what has to he said.

Thank you! All I'm trying to do is share the love not start a debate. Believe what u want but Im going with a class 4.

Thankyou for informing us about this amazing deal.
Got my 32GB Sandisk Class 4 today, took UPS two days to ship. As for the card, it writes at about 2MBs to 3.6MBs, so it's clearly not a class 4. I bought a 16GB Sandisk a while back, it's write speeds were also supposedly class 4 but were abysmal. While this card is adequate, it's the last Sandisk I'll be buying. Kingston all the way, I've bought multiple 4GBs and 8GBs from them, each card was faster than it's rating.
Edit: Too be clear, I'm not betching about it being Class 2 plus or minus, but I don't like being lied to.

Sdcard questions

I'm looking for the highest GB/class sdcard
I'm assuming would be a 32gig class10
Is PNY a good brand? If brands matter with sdcards

Hi,
In my experience ,Sandisk and Kingston are the best cards,that give the least problems...
SanDisk gets my vote. Kingston and Transcend seem good too.
Also, I'd just like to say Class 10 cards have the worst small file write speed from what I saw when looking into 32GB cards, a PNY card seemed to have good big file transfers like films and things but small files like stuff that Google Currents or Pulse would write to the SD Card were a lot slower.
So unless you transfer a lot of media back and forth a Class 6 or Class 4 card would be better since they provide better all round performance. I'd say Class 6 is the sweet spot for a good balance between big and small file speeds.

What class memory card & Sense Camera Mod

I was thinking of getting a new SD card for my Sensation, a 32GB. However, i cannot figure out what class to use - esp because im running the sense camera mod, which will require higher writing speeds, because of the Improved HD quality, right? :S
If that's the case, or even if not, which class memory card should i buy - taking into account recording hd videos and pics

As mentioned in the hq camera mod thread. Class 10 sdcard is required.. Samsung class 10 has good reviews.

I use an unbranded Class 10 16gb that works fine with the mod, even the 40mbps mod. Play.com do well priced own branded 32gb class 10 ones that are fine and, in my opinion more reliable than buying from Hong Kong
Yeah you don't need a class 10. I'm using a class 6 and it works just fine. Something to consider about class 10 is that you lose random access speed to gain faster sequential write speeds. That being said, on a mobile phone where you're constantly pulling up pictures and music and applications, a class 4 to 6 is usually preferred.
Be very careful with eBay. It's a great website, but I did get jammed with a Sandisk 16GB class 6 once. It's write speed? About 40Kbytes a second. Yeah, it was awful. Looked absolutely legit, seller was alright feedback wise, grammar was fine. Be careful.
Yes I would NOT buy it off eBay just for the reasons he wrote above! Very good fakes, hard to tell the difference!
