Toshiba / Kingston 512M SD has compatible problem with XDA2?

My Kingston 512M SD (toshiba OEM) seems not compatible with XDA2.
The writing speed is slow (compare to lexar), and the machine always can't read the data on the SD. Sometimes the data on the card became read only. However the card works perfectly on my digital cam and card read.
Anyone got a Toshiba or Kingston 512M SD can test for me?
I had the same problem w/ my new 512 Mb Kinston SD card too.
My solution was to re-format the SD card this way:
FAT
16K blocks
Don't use FAT32 as that slows things down IMHO.
YMMV

Thanks :lol: .
It seems perform a lot better with FAT16 and 16K blocks.
I think there must a bug in the OS because O2 never test SD card above 256M.
I've got a viking 512MB SD card from www.ebuyer.co.uk and it works fine.
Can I check how it is formated?
If you got a card reader, I think you can check it in the windows.
Use the command prompt , type "chkdsk X:" (x = your card reader's drive letter) and you can see the block size and the file system of the card.

Only magicians with version windows 1.06 and 1.03 can work with SD cards 150x 2 Gb. All other versions can't do this. My magician offers me to format the 150x 2 Gb Transcend SD card. How can I fix it?

I don't have a card reader totry formating the gard in in , but while in the phone i tried to format it from my PC - no change - after the formating it's still detected as 135MB. How can I fix this?

Try Softick CardExport II - use trial to format SD with PC.
I've tried Resco Explorer, Softick CardExport II<both format on the device and from my PC in card export mode> and Pocket Mechanic- all the three of them detect it as 135 MB card. The card is working great with Universal, so it's OK and it's realy 1 GB....

4 GB SD Card on Qtek 9000 ?

Hi all,
Does anybody know what is the size limit of the SD cards for the Qtek 9000 ?
Thanks
4 GB sd card
I don't know, but 4GB SD card work's fine for me.
Thanks very much timemaster !
4gb cards and over use fat32 which the universal can read fine. So there should be no problem up to about 128gbytes.
"Capacity limit in all SD/MMC formats appears to be 128 GB in LBA mode (28-bit sector address)."
Of course it depends on software applications being written well. Currently we only know of one applications that has problems. The camera application can't write to a 4gb card unless at least 2gb is already is full because some developer hardwired a 32 bit register variable for the 'memory full' check (32bit = 2gb).
Please look at/or add to the 4gb threads in the 'Universal Accesories' forum.

Trinity HTC 3600 with 8GB memory card?

Hello,
I'm trying to use a 8GB memory card in my Trinity, but it shows only around 3.8 GB available. The mini SD is formatted with FAT32, my PC shows 7.88 GB free space.....
Is there a limitation up to 4 GB for the Trinity?
Carsten
maybe in your rom sdhc support is not patched. find it and install or flash with a new version of that rom
I have a Claro's italian rom, and my P3600 works perfectly with a 8GB Sandisk card...
