well im sure some of you have read post from this guy. about how he is able to read files from his eight gb sd card in is uni even tho it only says 2 gb on his device. has anyone else gotten one of these supposed magical cards and tried it out? i searched on ebay and it seems to be that only one guy has or sells this specific card . is nuclear advertising for this guy , is he a scammer or is this true and we dont know about it yet. please give input if you have gotten one of these cards and have tested it out.
Even all those 4GB SD-cards are already non-standard and not working in most of the devices. From 4GB upwards they have to be SDHC-cards (SD 2.0) which are not supported by the Universal's reader. Sure, it would be possible to manufacture 8GB SD-cards, but it's very unlikely that they work in a lot of devices since SD was never meant to have more than 2GB.

well i just saw today that a treo that was supposedly not able to support sdhc is now able to because of a firmware update. check engadgetmobile.com if that can be done with a treo why not the universal. if its a software problem im sure there are people in here that are able to help
Sorry about my long post but i am trying to give as much information as i can in one post.
I am requesting ROM builders to start firmware upgrades to support these 4GB and 8GB cards. Windows Crossbow doesnt support 4GB or 8GB SD only cards, instead it reads them and reformats them changing the firmware of the card to 2GB!!!!... I havent tried SDHC yet. Here are pictures of my 4GB Extreme III SanDisk SD only card. I couldnt upload it here so i zipped them and uploaded them to rapidshare. Helmi's AKU 3.5 ROM doesnt read a card formatted using Crossbow... i dont know its just too many details. I cant think. But I just want to let you guys know that you are right so far on your research. Keep the good work up!
http://rapidshare.com/files/8938902/sandisk_tech_support.zip
I emailed sandisk tech support these images. It seems they havent replied yet. Keep a track on all my threads as i keep posting about these cards everywhere.
Trust me its just because i have a lot of money that i am able to get my hands on these things. And i just keep posting my observations. I would even get my hands on the 32GB card if I could bribe the CEO of SanDisk.
It got reformatted to 2GB.. I am unable to make it 4GB again.
My 8GB card as you can see in pictures on ebay is a samsung make. Its also SD only. 8GB SDHC cards are available to be bought. They are a bit slower then normal SD cards and are cheaper too.
32GB cards will be coming soon in SD or SDHC i believe. I read it in news. Like its totally upto you to believe me or not, my information is very helpful to me but i still encounter problems and it seems not even sandisk can help me
Anyways so its a farse that Universal's SD card readers dont support SDHC. And you can file a lawsuit on SanDisk or Samsung for that. They just want you to spend more money into buying a SDHC card reader.... Truly its the ROM.
ok now i know u r full of shyt. u keep popsting that u have this card and it works but i have yet to see ne photos. u just like the attention u get from lieing through ur teeth. thats pretty sad
i dont know about the 8bg but my 4gb is working no probs,
doesnt matter if its empty, only used 900mb, or any amount in between empty or full, screen grab using SPB explorer of my current card status:
oh and to stop arguments there is no reason why nuclear couldnt download the demo of spb explorer then do a screen grab of his mem card section of memory just like i have in previous post!
so erm, as they say "get your cards out for the lads"
this is the card i got, dont know all the bull**** about this format that format, its slower etc, but this is quicker at loading tomtom sat nav up etc than my other card 1gb puremedia sd card, like i said 4gb, no problems http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail.asp?prod=SD_MOBYMEMORY_4096_001

I don't know that I come to the same conclusion after reading the thread in the link. It seems questionable at best since two of the posters specifically said it did not work for them.
SDHC compliant devices work with SDHC cards, SD devices do not.
You may be lucky to get one that you can read from, but an SD device will not write to it without screwing it up.
The Universal is SD not SDHC

this is total bull, i have came to two conclusions after reading all these post.
1 -now it seems like the only person that sells this specific card that nuclear has is fastmemoryman and he is advertising for him. IF that is the case then i tell u guys not to deal with this scammer cause i bought from him before and was sent a 2 gb card disguised as a 4.
2- Nuclear does indead have a 8 gb card from samsung and is able to put his dvd in it but because sd 2.0 IS backward compatible as i have read it from several sites you are able to use only 4 gb of the 8. so he is putting his dvd in the card but only one movie,
those are the only two possible conclusion there is . so if its not number 1 then its number 2

I am pretty sure there are NO 4 gb minisd cards on the market. There have been a few stories of skams that would make me v wary. I have been watching the market/forums for months and seen absolutely no credible reports of one in existence.
I have magnified the picture of the claimed 4gb minisd card - and to my eyes it looks duped! the 4 is not in line or same font as the 0 - what do others think?
Yeah, there are 4gb cards

No branding for the manufacturer of the card itself is my biggest clue as to not believe it.

Ok friends now Yep they were meant to come out 1st or 2nd Q this year but I think manufacturers have withdrawn because of microsd cards and I reckon they are investing in these. I would like the manufacturers to prove me wrong though because many think 4 and 8 gb minisd cards are feasible.
sandisk's site and wikipedia both say 2gb is the max
I don't know if you guys checked but 4gb sd's are out. I don't understand the difference btwn sd and mini. They are supposed to be the same but just smaller.
I have not seen any 4.0 GB miniSD's. The font on the picture is definitely fake. The "4" is of different font type and size. My advice is "DON'T BUY IT". It's a scam!
OP: No, it will not work in your Wizard....
good lord...
It looks like a lot of people here really need to do a bit of research before flapping their lips about things they are not informed about.
4gb MiniSD cards do in fact exist.
However, the Wizard can not recognize it because of the size. It can only see 2 gigs of a 4 gig card... so it is pretty much useless until there is some type of firmware update that would allow them to see all 4gb of the card.
Like I said though... the phones only see them as 2gb cards because of firmware limitations.
Just a thought . . .
So, since there is a 2gb limitation, I wonder if you partitioned the card to 2 - 2gb partitions if it would address that (probably not) but seeing as I do not have one - it is a question that idly went through my mind.

Thanks gldrush98 for those images- do you own one? You will find i have done quite alot of research and i dont flap :wink: The prophet - v similar firmware can manage a 4gb sd card without a problem as can the older magician. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32265&start=25
Sometimes the card needs to be at least 2gb full for the card to be fully recognized or formatted on the device with storage tools or the like.
Best to be formatted to fat16 not fat32 - thats why its probably not working properly in the wizard. Many 2gb cards even dont work on the wizard if formated to fat32.
You can also partition your memory card - see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=52380&highlight=format+4gb
This is the orig post that those images came from http://www.bengalboy.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=584&forum=8&post_id=4043

It's not possible to use a 8GB SD becuase it use the HC (hight capacity) standard. The prophet card reader support only "normal" sd cards and not HC ones.

This is why I am asking if anybody have actually used 8GB card in prophet, and not theories on why it shouldn't work. Treo users apparently were able to use SDHC cards just by updating driver.
For what it's worth, I've read that some HC cards will work in older SD readers, but that no more than 4GB will be accessible. I've also read that a driver update might be able to solve the problem.
I'm sure many will be ready to try it when a solution surfaces. Do any of the HTC units read the HC cards?
FYI, I was in contact with the Microsoft WM dev group that wrote the SD card code. They had yet to start writing code to support SDHC... I believe that was back in June/July.
My guess is that they might get it in to support WM6 devices. But for us, I think it's a lost cause. Oh well, save your money and wait for the dust to settle.
SDHC is such a fubar'ed standard anyways. 32 GB max??? We'll hit that in 3 years. Then another new standard? Gawd, what a waste.
I just got a SanDisk 4gb SDHC microSD card, and I can confirm that it does NOT work in my TyTN. The TyTN does not "see" the card in Settings->Memory when the card is inserted.
Unless someone has a reg hack that will make this work, I can now confirm that the 4gb SHDC microSD cards do NOT work with the TyTN.

It's been known for a long time that the 4GB SDHC cards wouldn't work...
You should be able to sell it on and get a 2GB with the cash you make though easily enough.

It has NOT been known that it doesnt work, we actually needed someone to check with a SDHC........now all i can say is that it is most likely a limitation of WM, atleast that was the impression i got from the guys at HTC.

Yes, it has been known... the SDHC standard is different from the SD...
The SDHC is not compatible with SD unless the device is specifically designed for it... So legacy devices cannot read it...
ffs......if you read through the threads in here you will notice that there is no ACTUAL proof that the Hermes doesnt support SDHC.........HTC have also stated that it is a limit in the OS and NOT the hardware.
We all know SDHC is different from standard SD, but that is not my point, the post i was replying to said we have known for ages.......which is not correct, we still dont know if a reg-hack will allow the memory limit to be lifted from WM5/6.

am using one now.. . .
I flashed WM 6 (vp3G's version 3.0) and my 4GB SDHC works just great.
Yeah, lots of the cooked WM6 ROMs include SDHC support. It was indeed only ever a coding issue that wasn't included in native OS. Well done the chefs.
Search the WM6 forum with the term sdhc and support and you'll be able to compile a list of cooked ROMs that do it. Most recent ones do though as far as I'm aware. Pre-cooked, that is - not sure about the DIY ROM kitchens.
If it helps, Black Satin is very recent indeed and has it. I heartily recommend Medium edition. (Was on LE but installed sev of the removed packs anyway). Also Faria's is a personal favourite of mine (SuperClean).

the original DFT release is fine if your SD card is compatible (SD compatibility is the same for all releases.)
everything else on here is based of DFT with a few exceptions, largely around unlocking the device for you.

ignore anything in that thread about compatible cards, its all meaningless, get a class 2 or 4 card and keep your fingers crossed, as it stands, maunfactures do not produce cards for the public to a spec needed for WP7, its completely unknown.
you could have two identical cards with the same model number and one may not work, luck im affraid, is whats needed.

yes there is. Sandisk has official wp7 branded SD-cards, but they are expensive. Otherwise its all about luck. I'm on a sandisk class 2 16GB bought off ebay, and it works like a charm.

ah yes the cards that no one can buy, unless you happen to be in an AT&T store
correct me if im wrong but i couldnt find a store selling them to the public, there is lots of FUD on the net about them but the actual products dont appear to be anywhre, i did only spend 5 min looking so perhaps they are about.
The question is, will OEMS make a brand of cards that will only have a very very minimal uptake in sales, after all, most WP7 devices have or are supposed to have, non removable cards.
Not saying its not going to happen, because obviously they can produce these cards the question is how big a market will there be for them and is it worth them selling them as a branded model.... anyhowe if you have a link for some place selling them other than at&t drop us a line

apparently its because of random access speeds, a digital camera couldnt care less about random speeds, what it needs to sequential speeds, hence the class ratings they use, i dont know the details of it al but apparently one of the ways they can make it sequentially faster has an adverse effect on the random speed
theres several other factors involved as well, components used and how it was put together etc. thats partially why your safer with a class 2 or 4 card.

I'm really not certain about this, but their a limit on the size SD card our hd2's can support. (Either 16 or 32gb which is what I'm uncertain of) try formatting your new SD card into two 16 gb partitions and then see what happens.
Hopefully either that helps or someone with more knowledge than I will comment and give you a better answer

Well the limit is definitely not 16gb because I have one of those and it works fine in Android but it for some reason cannot boot SD Android. Also, if I'm not mistaken MarkAtHome (I've seen him in many of the NAND threads, especially NexusHD2) has a 64GB SDXC card as he was posting something about that a while ago. He'd have to confirm though.

Where did you get your memory card?? You son are a victim of false advertisement. I purposely purchased a "cheap" 16GB sd card from ebay and it wasnt even bigger than like 300MB. There are ways to fake the memory size, and thats why when you try to put the music on your card is says its not there because there truly isnt any physical memory available. And also why it gives those weird readouts. Sorry to bust the news :/

Yes. You set up two partitions 32 gb each.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium
There have been threads discussing how certain sd cards do not perform well in android devices, including the HD2. It has to do with some of the access times the cards are rated at.
I have tested a 32gb patriot class 10 card in the HD2 and samsung vibrant that made both phones freeze and run terribly slow until the card was removed.
Sandisk cards run flawlessly in the HD2 and I have only been using them for the past year, including a 32gb and a 64gb SDXC. The 64gb must be formatted as fat32 inside the phone before it can be used, but the full 64gb is available.

Hello!
I just got my new SD HC (32Gb) card for my htc HD2 device, but im getting weird crashes when i just put some Gb of for example music. It deletes some of it, or changes it to thousands of 0byte weird files..
Can someone help?

I agree with elesbb. Infact the same thing had happened to me about 4 years ago. What they do it put a memory hack in the SD card fooling it to think there is more memory. I would say if you bought it from ebay contact the seller first and
tell them you think it might be fake and you wish to get a real card asap. If they don't send you one or sound like they may be un-willing to then you should report them. Here's some information found on ebay's site about fake memory cards.
If you bought it from a different online seller you should still contact them about it and say you did some research and believe you recieved a counterfit item. In the link i shared above there are a few examples of how to spot fake cards including some pictures if you go through the links. I've read somewhere that if you have a sandisk and the class rating is in the corner then you more then likly have a counterfit one. Sandisk's class ratings should be centered in the middle of the SD card.
Okay, i've just sent email to him, hopefully he will just re-send me new, (working..?) or give money back!
