Does anyone else have an issue with there phone telling you that your SD card is slow ?
I had a Sandisk 64gb Micro SD card and when i formatted it to use it as internal storage it told me the card appears to be slow and some apps may become juddery....
So i purchased a Sandisk Extreme Class 10 64gb memory card but get exactly the same message, am i missing something ?
Cheers

I seem to have the same problem except I don't have the option to go ahead and format it. It says: SD card too slow for use as internal storage. This SD card is too slow for use as internal storage.
To format an SD card as internal storage, try using an UHS Speed Class 3 SD card. This was with a Samsung Evo Class 10 SD card. I then went and got a UHS speed class 3 SanDisk Extreme card like it specifies and I still get the same error. It won't let me go ahead and format it.

I've read 2 different things about how much memory the Captivate will see. Does anyone know for sure if it's 48 or 32 gigs?
I put my 32Gb Sandisk in my Captivate today...and it mounted ok, all 21Gb of installed music and movies on that card seemed to work fine, based on my random sampling.
Keep in mind that it makes a "fake" /sd directory in the root of the internal /sdcard, and that points to the external storage when using an Android file explorer like Astro. And also keep in mind that there's a lot of apps that just don't know about this directory, so they can't "see" the external storage.
Windows sees two distinct storage devices, however, as it should be.
It has build in internal 16GB (2GB of that is reserved for apps) rest 14GB is data for whatever, Plus whatever Micro SDHC card you will add.
16+16 SD = 32GB
16+32 SD = 48GB
I have put 16GB micro SDHC to it (32GB cards are to expensive) connected to windows i get two drive letters one for Internal 14GB Data partition and one for my own 16GB card.
Hope that helped you.

Yep the ATT site spec sheet says 32gb is supported by the phone. And from all appearances it does indeed seem to work with the phone just fine.
Now the real question. Who is going to tear apart the phone and replace the internal SD card (since I assume it's literally an internal microSD card as seen in other devices) with a 32 GB card and see if it can handle 32+32 GB.

you seem like a willing volunteer
hmm if only i had two 32gb sd cards i would but they expensive
The real reason for replacing the internal SD card would be because it's so damn slow.
I agree with the slow part hence the mods to change the cache onto the external which speed up the phones.... any word on if the internal SD card is replaceable or not? If it is, that would be great news as its definately not as fast as a class 6 card and replacing it with one would definately speed things up.

Haha, exactly that. If I had the money for two 32 GB cards I'd try.
Edit Hmm... I saw a tear down of the Galaxy S and I didn't see an internal microSD card, so maybe it doesn't use a card like the Streak. Might be built in and unable to swap. Oh well!
i did a test on Patriot Class 10 32GB Micro SD on my Sensation. everything went quite smooth, for 10 hrs...after that Sensation can't detect the card anymore. Put the card into card reader, PC can't detect card. so all data in the card was gone and the card is now rendered unusable!
tried on a Transcend Class 10 16GB, Sensation couldn't detect the card at all!
put in a Sandisk Class 4 8GB, Sensation immediately detected the card and i'm still happily using the card for 3 days without incident...
in fact, my Asus Transformer had the same issue with a Patriot class 10 32GB card. wiped the data on the card and rendered it useless...
so any info that i should know abt regarding class 10 MicroSD Card?
thx
I have no solution for you..
I can only say that i am using a Transcend Class 10 16GB card
with no problem. Maybe the problem lies within your phone?
but it happens to my HD2, Asus Transformer and my Sensation...
three devices with the same problem?
i really dunno...
If the card couldn't be read by your pc or 3 other phones, that would lead me to believe that your card is bad. Hopefully you bought it from a reputable seller with a solid return policy and you can just try a new one.
Ive had this problem a few times, its usually the card. I was able to detect mine using Micro SD Adapter but i couldnt open it up. I used Paragon Partition Manager (only thing that detected it) did a full wipe (takes a longgg time 5-7 hours) and then reformatted using windows to just a FAT32, then used Clockwork recovery to partition EXT. It worked fine after that, it was my old 8gb card
I've bought a 16GB Class 10 microSD from Patriot. No problems at all. works fine and is very fast.
Your card must be broken...
I heard marshmallow android 6 update you can make external SD card as internal storage. Is that true? Has anyone tried it yet?
Yes, I tried it on my HTC m8 gpe and it works fine, tried with 128GB card.

Might not wanna do this...seems it will or can fry your sd card
http://www.techtimes.com/articles/9...-you-use-your-sd-card-as-internal-storage.htm
I need more internal space on my phone so I do need it.
Has anyone tried it yet?

I've been using an SD card as adoptable storage in my A9 since Thanksgiving without issue.

Am talking about changing external SD card to internal storage on HTC one A9 with Sense 7 UI with Marshmallow Android 6?
i don't understand what you mean by adoptable storage? do you mean Internal storage ?
When he says adoptable/adoptive storage, he means that you will format your SD card to internal storage. There is an option in the settings. I have done the same with my HTC One A9 using SanDisk 128GB UHS-1 (version 1) Read 90 MB/s.
By doing so, all your DATA will be SAVED in the "new" internal storage (128gb and not in the 32gb phone storage).
However, APPS will STILL be installed in the PHONE storage (32gb).
E.g. the HTC Camera app will remain in your phone storage (32gb) but all camera shots will be saved in the "new"/adoptive storage (sandisk 128gb).
Also, when you plug in your device to your PC, it will ONLY detect the adoptive storage (sandisk 128gb) as this is THE default internal storage of your phone.
I recommend formatting your SD card to internal storage if your SD card is FAST enough and you are sure that you do not need the default 32gb. Also, if your SD card is higher than 32gb of course.
Also make sure is a original sd card and not a counterfeit one, cause a counterfeit one will fry and delete all your data, best option is use a SanDisk sd card.

is 128Gb SanDisk Ultra 0MB/s 533X UHS-I Class 10 fast enough for Internal storage? or SanDisk Extreme more expensive?
Amazon should not sell fake one's.
i know Ebay sell fake ones
Will 2Gb games get install on SD card, if changed to Internal storage?
Either one are good, im using the 128gb one
SanDisk 128gb 90mb/s class 10 UHS-1 (ver1) is good enough.
I tried formatting an old SanDisk 64gb 30mb/s class 10 and my One A9 says the card is slow and may not work properly.
I bought mine from a retailer and he advised me just to buy SanDisk (US$60). They also sell Kingston 128gb (US$48) but he didn't recommend it since the actual speed of their class 10 (90mb/s) as per package is just around 40+mb/s. It's original but it seems Kingston is lying on the max read speed.
Note: I stay in Malaysia so I'm not sure if microSD cards are cheaper in your country.
Hi,
I have my SD card (class 6) merged with my internal storage. Every app I move to the SD card lags like hell! They work perfect when on the internal storage. My storage is starting to fill though as it's only an 8GB device. Any ideas? I've been thinking that if I get a class 3 uhc SD card (they reckon they're up to 60 MB/s) but I'm not sure is that the problem?
Thanks for your advice.
Class 10 should be bare minimum. I am pretty sure the class 6 card is the cause. Uhs 3 is recommended.

I would concur with @Gravemind2015 your card is too slow... Although I think a minimum UHS1 card is required to make it usable due to the higher write speed than a Class 10, but I do agree a UHS3 is recommended.
A Class 6 card is just too slow for use as adopted storage, I would convert it back to portable until you can get a new card or it will constantly lag on you.
Thank you for your help
I've bought a UHS Class 3 card, installed it and it's solved the problem.

The card reader in the 3rd and 4th generation G devices is UHS-1, it's write speed is limited in real world use is limited to about 45mbps, or about 1/2 to 1/3 of the embedded storage chip... You will always have some lag by comparison. Will a U3 card be better? I can't answer that definitively since it would vary based on your specific usage.
Hi,i've bought a micro sd for my nvidia shield k1 (micro sd: class 10; 90 mb\s; toshiba exceria U3; 128gb). I format it like a internal memory and i moved some apps on it.Simple apps like aptoide crashed,some doesn't start and games doesn't load or lag. Why?
The micro sd is: https://www.amazon.it/Toshiba-Sched...=8-1&keywords=toshiba+exceria+micro+sd+128+gb
A U3 is usually good.
Go to the play store and look for A1 SD bench. Then test the speed. Maybe your SD card's write speed is too slow.
I can recommend: Sandisk Extreme 128GB Class 10 SDXC u3

Thanks man,the results are 11mb\s write and 40mb\s reading.Now the sd card works apparently good
11MB/s write speed is too slow! I've one of those slow cards too and I had to replace it. The current write speed of the Sandisk is over 45MB/s.
I presume your card is too slow for screen recording. I couldn't download and watch videos simultaneously with the slow card. Also, the download speed was quite slow.

I am using the same SDCard currently in mine. Having a few issues with adaptable storage, however runs fine as external.
