Officially the Galtab 2 7.0 wifi only supports a max of a 32GB microsd card, but my question is this. Has anyone tried a 64GB one? If so what brand(s) and class? I know many laptops state they only support 8gb ram, but then you find out that quite a few were only supporting that at the time of release as the biggest mainstream production memory was 4GB SoDimm's and 8GB modules were extremely expensive, but they support more unofficially. I think I even saw that my HTC Incredible will run a 64GB card but the specs state only a 32GB. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help and time.

Yay search function! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1643254
good day.
I was searching this and the development forums and for some reason didn't see them there, I was going to delete this thread and ask in the multi question thread further down, but I can't seem to find the delete button, only after searching the xda general threads did I see it states that only mods can delete threads.
I do appreciate your Exuberant appreciation of the search function though, apparently we ltrnftp's do not know how to properly form a search and are overwhelmed by the massive amount of results sometimes. hehe
BUT honestly, I do appreciate the link to the correct thread. I need to go over there and point out that the USB adapter hubs sold on ebay like the one I bought http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Adapter...axy-Tab-2-10-1-8-9-7-7-7-0-Plus-/271127664707 do not work even when powered except to show as a USB device is attached but no storage devices or cards etc.

Dear friends
I don't have technical knowledge but I would like to start this thread for developer because I didn't found any discussion about it. If it will possible then it will be a major break-through for Android OS.
Points
Is that possible to read USB (Pen Drive) through cable on android running mobile?
Anybody tried to do it?
Same question for may different card also.
If dev team will got success on this then they can also try to read a hard disk with the support of external power for hard disk.
Our current Android is already reading a Micro SD card.
I think it will be possible because now we have dual core processor too on mobile as well.
It is my humble request to all dev to think about it.
I used I-mate phone for 2 years and started to used it in 2006. Since then I have this question in my mind for more than 5 years. Now it is hard for me to keep in mind.
Please, forgive me if I started a wrong thread at wrong place.

If I read your needs corerctly, there's quite a few threads on this, here's what google finds on xda
This is called usb host, google it and you'll find some links or use xda search
Thanks a lot dear
But, all the things about USB host is not at one place. It is too hard for noobs, like me, too understand and sort out things together.
Further help appreciated.
I have HTC Sensation and Windows mobile 6.1 (I-mate).
Thanks again
This feature is called OTG, and is a part of Honeycomb. It's on my Galaxy Tab 10.1. BTW, it does not work all that well as support for many device classes is not provided.

Dear XDA,
I am a new user, so if this post is in the wrong place, sorry.
I am planning to make a custom case for my ville. My plan is to mod a very small usb hub into it. So i can plug in usb cables and stuff. Also i wanna buy a very fast mirco sd card. The hub wil be inserted in the mirco usb port. I wanted to ask if it is possible to boot from such an external micro sd card, outside the one s. If it is possible do i need to root it? Has anyone tried something failiar before? And am i able to charge my phone through the usb hub?
Tanks in advance,
pro-one1000.
I'd say that this is more suited to development or accessories, but I'm sure a moderator won't mind.
Android is based on Linux, so there is no reason why it can''t be possible. It would probably be quite difficult, but definitely do-able.

I do no work with programming (I'm taking a crash course in computing in the summer to get a bit of help) so I am probably one of the last people that you should ask to be honest mate. If you repost this (not that a senior member would ever recommend that...) on General or Android Development then you may get a bit more attention from people who know what you are doing.
Hello Guys, I've been searching recently for a Phone where the main things are that I can expand the Storage with an SD Card and that this Phone has many Roms at last I also want it to have some good specs so I can play for example Mobius Final Fantasy etc. On this Phone. Now here comes my Question, wich one would you recommend me?
Thanks in advance for the recommendations
(And sorry for my bad Grammar)

There is an active thread here for asking about device suggestions, find that thread and post your question there, don't start a new thread just to get suggestions. Threads are for solving issues with a device or for writing guides to use on devices.

Hi guys
First time time poster here. I don't know if there is a thread or something new people are supposed use first, I have looked but I couldn't find anything so my apologies if I've made a mistake.
Now onto the reason for this post.
I recently acquired a cheap Dell axim x51 (low spec model) with the idea to use it as pocket sized ebook reader to carry reference guides out and about.
While I was researching the devices before I bought it I came across forum threads about upgrading the OS to Windows Mobile 6.x and being able to use large capacity sd cards.
After reading through a few threads on here and downloading a copy from the source listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/windows-mobile/dell-axim-x51-windows-mobile-6-0-6-5-t3378463 I gave it a try and got the device to run on the copy of windows mobile 6.5 in the download link.
However while the PDA seems to be working fine it still cannot detect a 16GB SD card I've tried with it. I was wondering if there might be a component missing from the download or if I'm trying to use the wrong type of memory card.
If someone could point out a existing thread I'd be very grateful.

Greetings and welcome to assist. I can find very little information on this issue but according to this most sd cards should work
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328460
Maybe if you ask in that thread the experts can think of something
Good Luck

Hi Sawdoctor
Thanks for your help, I had seen that thread before I posted here but when I took a second look I found another thread that covered what I was looking for.
Again, many thanks.
Hi there,
Some of my friends insist to purchase an Android smartphone with 256GB ROM after experiencing frustrations caused by memory capacity issue while using other Android smartphones with fewer ROM, but when I visited Amazon for the purchase, I discovered that there are only 2 phones with 256GB and only 1 Android smartphone phone among the 2, the other one is an iPhone. However, Hwa Wei as a producer from China is not acceptable by my friend, so, as the title described, please shed some light about my question, thank you in advance.
BTW, I am a newbie as a forum poster, and I had a problem to have a good overlooking to the forum topic structure via forum UI design, I might put this thread in the wrong category, if I do, please forgive me.
Regards,
KC
Because for the most part it is not needed. As you can get a device with an SD card slot and add more memory. To be honest there is no real need for that much memory on a device.
