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

Yo thats a SD card not a SDHC lol. in the email you said SDHD...now you say SDHC... lol
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

Yup i think its #2 .... goddamn crossbow screwed up my 8GB card!... Alan knows it. Dont call me a scammer alright... first i am helping you and then you call me a scammer.
Don't bring me into this, I only know what you keep telling me, and what you post here.
I have no way of verifying what you say, one minute things work, one minute they don't, one minute you are developing a crossbow rom, the next you have one from another device.
It might be the language barrier, but half the time it sounds like you tell different stories from one thread to the next.

Is there anybody using 4Gb cards in the trinity?
Can it be an SDHC? Or is there already 4GB non SDHC mini SDs?
Memory speed & specs
are there special requirements in terms of tranfer speed ?
could a 133x mini SD 4 Gb ( Samsung nand flash ) works correctly in our trinity ( to be used as storage for gps Maps , MP3 and pictures ) ?
I don't care about video streaming or other video performances..
Please let us know wich kind of memory are used in your devices.....
Thanks for any reply

So far SDHC doesn't work, hopefully a new ROM will fix that. People have reported that a standard 4gb miniSD will work when it is formatted to FAT32. I'll let you know in a few days when mine arrives...

I am also using same card from the same company with no obvious problems. I also bought a USB mini SD card reader from them as a bundle and interestingly its the only way that I can reliably read and write to the 4Gb card with a PC. To be more specific I found using a mini SD to SD adaptor with a standard SD card reader didn't work (probably old card reader, or possibly because SD spec is maxed out at 2Gb).
I use the 4 GB MiniSD from Topram
Works fine for already 2 weeks. If I have any problems, I shall report them.

Yes, I've just tested the TopRam miniSD too, its working like a charm. I guess when I update my ROM, I'll be able to use the SDHC 4gb that I already bought. I'll have to say that all performance being equal, the normal flash card might be better since it will work in most card readers. SDHC card readers are hard to find.
Just wondering does the Transcend 4gb sdhc card now work after the dopod gps test rom update.
What's the difference between a 4GB SD and a 4GB SDHC? Which should I get (considering that the Trinity will read SDHC after the update)?

I hope that you bought a card reader that is compatible with SDHC also, otherwise the only way you will be able to read that card is with it in your phone. I must have 4 card readers and a laptop with one built-in, none of them will read SDHC format.

So far I've only heard one person say that they have the SDHC card working on their device running the test ROM. If you really want to know, you'd better wait a week or so, or just order the normal 4gb mini SD which would be compatible with most card readers.
SDHC from Transcend works fine
I just received a 4 GB mini SDHC, and tested it. It works...
Hi,
can you tell me the advantages between a
normal MiniSD-Card and the SDHC Version of it ?

I think the advantage is that SDHC format allows for a much larger capacity in the future. SDHC also supports a very fast transfer rate, but I don't think these devices can utilise it...
I don't think you gain anything with SDHC for a phone, maybe the transfer rate could be useful in a camera or an SDHC compatible card reader.
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.
I tried one too and found the same thing.. wasn't my card so I didn't mess with it.. but it didn't look like it was ever gonna see it.

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.
A bit more experimentation is needed.

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.

I noticed that a registry key does exist under HKLM/Drivers/BuiltIn/SDHC/
maybe someone can find a tweak to make the card work...

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).

I bought a Team 16Gb Class 10 micro SD and it freeze my Defy, but I read that all Smartphone have trouble with class 10 cards (maemo and WP7 too).
It's something related to voltage (if you use setsvel to undervolt) and with partition (you need format the card with 32k or 64k)
I think Class 4-6 will be enough, until the Android Kernel will support class10.

Just look at the card, it has either a 2 or a 4 or a 6 in a circle stamped on it. Thats the class. The class = the number of MB/S it can transfer.

No. Class=speed only. He said the partition have 32K 64K.....I think that is not Class. Because the class can't change when you format the sd card.

If you want to find out what partition your card is just plug it into your computer then mount as SD storage. Right click on the card from "computer" and select format. The default settings your card is set at will be shown. You can change it to other sizes, and formats (like FAT, NTFS, but FAT32 should be default and used for phones). I recently formatted my Samsung 8GB class 6 at 4069, and no issues so far. Don't worry it won't format unless you select to format, so you can do this just to check.
Hi there, because of this thread i bought a class 6 16GB Trancend SD card. Formatted it with 64kb clusters now have 11,2 Write and 21,9 Read speed (in SD tools).
Thx you all for the advice not to buy a class 10!
Running GB 2.3.4 nandroid.
I recently upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 from 2.1.
After upgrading, my phone no longer detected my 32GB SD.
I spent a lot of time researching the issue and found that most people just went to a smaller card like I did.
I went out and bought a 4GB card.
After loading my phone up with apps and audio and images, 4GB was not enough.
So, here is how I resolved this...
I downloaded HPUSBDisk.exe which is an HP USB format tool.
Copied the content of my 4gb micro to my PC/Laptop.
I inserted my 32GB micro SD into a "micro sd USB adapter"...
Format the SD using the HP USB format tool (FAT).
Copy the contents from the 4GB to the 32GB.
When I placed the 32GB into the phone and powered it up it was now recognized.
weird, I own a 16GB card and never had problems with 2.3.3
actually never heard about this problem until today

16 GB are not really a issue.
I use a 32gb from Kingston and have no issues. ??? Think maybe it's not the memory size that is the problem. Maybe it got corrupted? I had that problem on a smaller card on a round of back to stock while playing around with ROMs and such. Formatted it on PC and all was fine... think it was 8? Was a while a go. But I've heard of it happening while updating, read about it after I had the issue with the card that came with my x10.

I have an X10a... but whatever.
When I flashed my 32gb SD using Win7, regardless of the cluster size, it would not work in my phone. Period.
I am NOT the only one who has had this problem nor am I the only one who found success in my method.
The 32gb I have in my phone right now, was formatted using the HP Tool at 16kb...

I quoted the wrong post LOL.
I didn't have any 'thanks' on me at the time.
No one should have to feel threatened or treated badly enough to leave xda.
it's not right.

1. X10i officially supports cards by a capacity no more than 16 Gb. However, most cards 32 Gb work normally too.
2. A card can be formatted by standard facilities of Windows, it is important only, that a clustersize was 32 Kb

FYI:
"Memory Phone memory up to 1GB
microSD™ up to 32GB, 2GB included"
(obviously the original specs, mine came with 8GB)
From Sony's specification page for the phone found here:

Then in the bottom right click on View the Xperia x10 specifications.

Yes but quite a few cards seem to have bad compatibility.
I'm curious if it's a certain class of cards that cause issues, or if it's certain vendors or brands? Do certain brands format them different and that causes the issue?
I researched what class was supported and bought a brand name (Kingston) that isn't high end but from a reputable business so I knew it wasn't fake. Bought a 32gb class 4 Kingston from Tiger Direct, popped it in and it worked fine. I put it in and tried it before transferring data to it.
I'm definitely not discounting the issue, but finding out WHY the issue is there is what I'm curious about.
i heard SDHC work the best but i'm idk the difference really, all i care about is the memory on the card

MY 16GB class 4 & 32GB class 6 KINGSTON both worked very well with no issue's.
Having the same problem!
I just upgraded my X10a to 2.3.3 and it's not detecting my 8gb SD card, I re-intalled the 2.1 android and the card worked fine, then I upgraded it again to 2.3.3 and formated the card, didn't work... I don't know what to do now!
Having a similar problem!
Hi, I've been having a problem with mi 8GB SD card, the thing is that I just Upgraded my X10 to 2.3.3, but it's not detecting the micro SD, it was working fine till I did the upgrade, so I took the card and plug it into the PC, it is working, then I tried changing the fortmat, didn't work either, so I changed it back to Android 2.1 and It got it working again, I tried one more time to upgrade to Android 2.3.3 and the problem persists, all the apps and features are working just fine, but the phone it's kinda useless without the microSD...
Anyone that knows what the problem might be, please reply, cuase it's very frustrating!!

The stock 8GB card in my x10 died quite fast.
They get scratched underneath easily.
Hate to bump up an old-ish thread. But I came across the following article and the pertinent quote from it is "We tested this card on some phones including Motorola Razr and Samsung Galaxy S2 and even on a year old Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 and it works fine"
So it looks like this old dog was still able to use a 64GB micro sdxc card.
But at 110$ USD (cheapest I've found so far)... might not be worth it yet.
