I just purchased 32gb microSD card and I was about copy everything from the old one to the new and start using it. However, I forgot old one was a goldcard.
My questions is will I run into any, like rom flashing, issue new one not being a goldcard?
My current rom is Coredroid V4.8
Thanks

The gold card is only needed to root the phone the initially or if you revert back to stock and want to root again. You will be fine.

It's simple.....copy all contents from 16gb card (insert in phone...mass storage) to computer. Then insert 32gb in phone....mass storage and copy the contents of the 16gb card (wherever u saved it on ur computer) and paste them into the removable disk shown in my computer....

What brand did you buy? I'm having trouble finding a certified one, if there is one.
It doesn't say. All it says is: 32gb micro sdhc (10)

I have the San Disk 32Gb class 4 and I transfered all the information from my Kingston 16Gb class 4 card with no problem's at all, question I have is why you would purchase a 32Gb card that was not from a well known vendor? There are to many fake 32Gb card's floating around, especially on E-bay!!!

I agree! My room mate actually tuned me on to HD Tune. This program has a utility built in that will test, real-time, the write/read speeds on the card. Test it the moment you get it, for at least 20 minutes uninterrupted. If it doesn't match the specs it should, return it. If you use Ebay, I would suggest purchasing with paypal, as they have a buyer protection program which helps with issues of "fake" cards.
Sidenote: these cards aren't actually fake. They do work. the problem is they are using cheap parts and even cheaper labor for the manufacturing of these cards, so they may, and probably will fail. Either partly or all the way. what I mean by this is...For example.. you purchase a 32gb class 10 card... 2 months later, the card only reads as 27gb or some weird number. this is a fake. Still usable, but not what you paid for.
Good to know, thank you!

MOE,
Where did you get your 32GB class 4 card from? I see them out there on Amazon and eBay, but I'm having issues trusting them.
Thanks!

I just purchased a ADATA 32GB card and copied all my data and files over from my 8GB with no problem but when I first look at the data it's all there, then some videos and pictures aren't there, just a "!" and I can't access them. I've switched back to my 8, anyone think I have a bad card?

It's possible. I just ordered a 32GB Sandisk class 4 from Amazon.com. No issues with it. I trust nothing but Sandisk.
Yep, after 3 bad generic sd cards, sandisc is the only one that works. You were right!

Just wanted to know if anyone is using a 128GB micro sd /xd card with the s5
if so have you had any issues? are you rooted? do you have an ext4 partition?
Im thinking of getting one this week using a 28GB ext4 partition and 100GB of extra storage and copying / expanding the partitions I have on my current 64GB variant
I'm using one, with no problems

Using a cheap eBay 128gig got it for $30 works great pictures load a tad slow but not bad for the price
Oh didn't know the S5 supported SD cards that large.
I'd be very very surprised if that's really 128GB.
I would soak test it before you put data on above about 4-8GB. I would also have a good close look at the partition table.
Just speaking from experience unless that's a second user one that's about a half to a third of the best prices out there.

Using top dollar sandisk 128gb card. works flawlessly. no issues at all. wish I could figure out how to get burst photos to go straight to card.
This is the card I'm using. Been running it for a few months with no problems whatsoever.
128 Gb works just fine. It's class 10 sdcard. No issues. Unrooted+rooted.
Tried this card on a lg g pro 2 though. There i had a lot of problems.
I thought the S5 could only handle 64GB memory cards? I'm using a 64GB sandisk one and it works perfectly! In my opinion thats more than enough and I got it at a good price :fingers-crossed:
Just got the 128 gig card, so far so good, no problems, actual available mem on the card is 119gig, Using it on the Sprint S5 variant

Adata 128gb sdhc??
so this is the card that I bought off ebay. Ebay you say...... well its a huge piece of ****. to start it is a fake, found that out when I started to write to it and after it reached around 8GB it started to overwrite what was already there! SD card test app confirmed it. check before you buy, some fakes can be identified easily. below is what ADATA replied to me when I had asked them WTF was wrong my damn card. like it mentions below, check the manufacturers website for any pictures of the cards and related packaging and descriptions. bottom line is you get what you pay for. A $20 card is far from a $100. for me the card was cheap so I was willing to risk it, but I saw some Samsung cards as high as $80 and they were also fakes. Ill wait for the price to go down, and get it from a local reputable retailer.
Thank you for contacting ADATA.
You mentioned that you have a 128GB MicroSDHC memory card. However, ADATA has not manufactured any MicroSD memory cards that has exceeded the capacity of 64GB (please visit the following link to our current memory card product offerings):
http://www.adata.com/index.php?action=product&cid=7&lan=en&cid1=3
Also, MicroSD memory cards with capacities of 64GB and above are categorized as MicroSDXC, not MicroSDHC.
There’s a suspicion that you might have purchased a counterfeit product. To verify, please compare your item against the product images we have listed on our web pages. We could assist you with identifying the product as well if you could send us images of your product.
no, i haven't fill up my 16 gb internal yet :v
Using 128GB Class 10 on my Verizon S5 and have no issues at all.
Biggest problem I had was transferring files from previous 32GB to the 128GB (A lot of files, took a while).
I am also rooted and I have to say being rooted is better with the bigger (or any) SD card that way you can use the SDFix app and allow file browsers to write to SD.
I'm using a SanDisk Ultra 64 GB card for now but will jump to 128 GB sooner rather than later since it seems everyone has had good luck with using legit cards. I'm kind of waiting for a sub-$100 deal, though.
Anyone find any discounted 128gb SD cards on Amazon or anything?

It should just work, storage is storage. I am not sure what in the software, memory IO, or processors would make much of a difference. My 64GB samsung Class10 card works in the oldest of old devices that I have as far as android phones go, no problem. Even back in the android 2.3 OS. My Mifi hotspot even accepts and shares my 64gb sd cards' contents over DLNA.
I bought 128 micro sd adata and I have one problem whit videos, when I copy or move any video from my internal memory to micro sd that videos don't play on my s5 video player. Anyone has solution for this problem??

I would recommend you Samsung MicroSDXC 64GB PRO Memory Card. Also other Samsung cards are great.
Very good read/write speeds.
I put a Lexar 128 GB 1000x in my MXP and it is functioning great.
I'm considering purchase of this phone - sounds like support for a micro SDcard works well, so is there any benefit to buying the 64 or 32GB internal storage models vs. the 16GB model? I can capture video and do TWRP backups to the (relatively inexpensive) SDcard, so what am I missing on a cheaper 16GB phone?

Is the Moto X a UHS-I or UHS-II compatible host device? The extra cost of these higher-end sdcards would be wasted otherwise, correct?
Edit - I googled this topic and found this post: https://forums.motorola.com/posts/8cda627ead . In short, it confirms that the Moto X benefits from / takes advantage of a UHS-1 U3 microSD card. @EmperorX makes a good suggestion.
I still want to know if I really want to spend extra for a 32 or 64GB Moto X, given that I can buy a 32GB UHS-1 U3 card for US $15.
Both cards are UHS-I class U3
It does support uhs-1 from what I've read. We'll see, my wife's card gets here on Wed and I'll test out. Sandisk extreme pro.

I see you've read what I read.

If there's a good Android M ROM available yet, see about formatting it as phone-specific "internal" storage... See: https://www.androidpit.com/android-m-release-date-news-features-name#performance

Problem
and what the maximum amount of the SD card can be used as system memory? I have a card to 64GB, and when you try to make it a system unit for a long time it formats, but it is empty and then says that the card is damaged, but if you use it like a regular card, it works fine and displays. Do not tell me what could be the problem?

Can you report on the relative performance of your higher-end microSD card vs. the internal storage? For example:
compare the time it takes to do a TWRP backup of the whole phone to internal vs. the microSD card
Capture full QHD video directly to the microSD card
etc.
Thanks!

I've got a generic 32gb class 10 and I have it as internal and its really laggy when I use Facebook, twitter etc so at the moment I just chuck my games on there. If I get a San disk extreme or pro will that eliminate the lag?

Maybe... But don't expect it to. Internal memory is much faster than even the fastest SD card. If you must use your SD card as internal storage for apps due to space, then move low usage apps to external card and heavy use ones to internal

Probably me, I have a Sandisk Ultra 200GB card. Works fine, no issues at all, ends up around 180GB usable. I've formatted it in both ext4 and exfat, both work fine. I did some benchmarks in another thread around here somewhere. Any questions, feel free.
Has anyone tried a 256gb sd card with this phone? Or is 128gb really the maximum?
im guessing 128gb is just the cited max since larger sized sd cards arent really common yet

Hi,
The maximum capacity of micro SD is "200" GB.
Although on eBay there're some 256GB of them, all of them are FAKE.
I use 200GB microSD on my NXT-AL10. Nothing to say correctly working.
