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 using a standard 4Gb card from mobimemory.com
Formatted Fat32.
Works fine!

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, does SDHC 4gb MiniSD works with new rom? Anyone?

Sandisk 4gb SDHC
Has anyone tried the sandisk card? Should I get the transcend card or wait for the sandisk? I am running the dopod test rom.

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 ?
Mfg Ulti and THX !

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.
Hello everyone,
This is my very first post. Sorry if its redundant one. But i couldnt find any thread with this specific problem.
Here is the thing, i bought HTC legend just 2 weeks ago. I have unrooted legend with Froyo 2.2 vodafone update. Yesterday i bought Kingston 8GB class 4 microSDHC card. I placed it in my legend. It detects it no problem formatted it. But it seems whenever any application tried to write to sd card. I get the message "SD card unexpectedly removed".
I have tried formatting card with Panasonic sd card formatter . Tried formating it under windows. The card works fine on PC read/write. But for some odd reason phone can only read from it
Also stock 2gb card is working like a charm in phone.
Please Help!
Try with some other brand
Usually Kingston has lot of duplicates especially in India

Yes i did consider that possibility. But the thing is card is working perfectly fine in pc. I have 3MB/s write speed when i copy things into card using pc. So if card was not original it shouldn't work even under windows. It just doesnt work with legend.
If i shall not find a suitable solution here. I will be left with no choice but to spend more money. Try ScanDisk.
Anyone??? I dont want to end up buying another card just to find out it doesnt work either.
man i have the same issue using kinsgton 8gb microsd hc, for example i do some photos, and on the 5th one, it says unaable to save file do unsuitable permissions or smth like that...it also mixes my music in a way i cannot imagine ! ahah, it puts like..5 songs into 1 without any pause ...dont know. the stock one is perfect, but i just guess theres problem with the company..they might be fake.
Try to enable usb debugging mode.

3 MB with a class 4 Kingston ?
You should consider that your card is a fake one ...

Any idea how much write speed a class 5 card should have?
Class 5 has minimum write speed of 5MB/s

5MB/s minimum. If class 5 existed
Here is the definition of the class for sdcards :
Class 2 : 2 MB/s minimum write speed
Class 4 : 4 MB/s minimum write speed
Class 6 : 6 MB/s minimum write speed
Class 10 : 10 MB/s minimum write speed
However, certains class 6 are less performant than certain class 2, so try to choose your new card wisely.

sometimes it is not the brand but the shop/seller is the issue. can always buy online from Kingston online shop if u have doubt abt counterfeit.
Hi! Check the lock switch! maybe its turning on when you put the card into the phone...
I had kinsgton 8gb microsd with same problem
work fine on PC with low read/write rate and my HTC legend rejecting it sometimes saying i don't have permission over my SD
anyways, this was due to corrupted SD card. I replaced it and everything works fine now
I had kinsgton 8gb cls4 microsd with same problem
on my LG OPTIMUS ONE with froyo
it notify me with msg "SD card unexpectedly removed"
some time after this notify msg my phone reboot ifself
I recently bought a 16GB Patriot MicroSD card, class 10. I find that after 24 hours of use, things start to fall apart (I've tried several different SD builds). I also have Sandisk 16GB Class 2 card that runs my daily Android software; never had a problem with it in 2 months. I follow the same procedure when attaching the card via a reader and removing it from my computer. I also use the same procedure when attaching the phone to my PC. I have concluded that the new Class 10 card is failing. My questions are:
1. Is anyone using a Patriot 16GB Class 10 card with success?
2. Can you give me an opinion of the best 16GB card when using Android on the HD2?
3. Could the Patriot card be too fast for the HD2?
4. Is there a maximum class rating I should not go over?
Thanks in advance.

The best SD Card for me is ''Kingston 16gb Class4'', never have had a problem.

Same is true with my very old Adata 16gb Class 2. But, I was hoping to get a bit more speed.
I think class 10 is too fast (and expensive XD ) for the HD2,
I got Kingston 16GB Class 4 and it works perfectly.
Hey all. I've got a 16gb Patriot class 10 installed, been using 1week now with no issues, Cotulla's Nand stock desire rom. Seem a little faster than the stock provided card, not sure if was worth the $ for the slight boost though.
Sent from my Nand~Droided HTC HD2
3/19/2011 - my 16gb patriot still no issues. Mine has been formatted multiple times and been re-partitioned with ext3 and even split for dual boot wp7 and hyperdroid gbx v7 and now v9 and have noted no sdcard related problems. Have downloaded and deleted multiple apps, and currently have 6gb of full DVDs on it. Have noted with all SD cards, you gotta pay attention when you're instructed to mount/dismount card via phone or when in mass storage mode connected to PC via USB, or when in PC using card reader or data can get corrupted. Hope this helps.

Hmmm, I absolutely can't seem to keep it from crashing. Right now I'm experimenting with another class 2 card to see if I can manage to destroy the installation again. Glad it's working for you. Might the difference be that I'm running an SD version from the card using the current stock HTC ROM?

I use Kinstom 32GB class10 early. But when I take photo, some photo maybe have error.
After that I check for internet about it. Someone said that maybe Kinstom's problem. It's not stable.
Now I use the Sandisk 32GB class4.
Maybe defy not support class10.
or that's Kinstom's problem. I don't know.

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.

Did you mean SD Class?
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.

Using a class 4 32 GB Kingston since a few days, working nicely. Got 5.5 MB/s write, 12 MB/s read. Thanks for the info, I was going to buy a more expensive (and I though, more future proof and safer) class 10 one, before I read about the compatibility problems with class 10 here.

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!

Yes. I've got a Sandisk 32GB [class 4] card using latest NexusHD2 ROM.
And everything works fine? No problem with read/write operations?

yes, i also have had the 'small' 32 GB card for a long time with no probs. Sandisk of similar good name is recommended. and class 6, dont pay any extra ro higher, lik class 10, as they are slower in a phone.
but.....

"For anybody who wants to try it, I have put a 64 Gb microSD XC class 6 by Sandisk into my HD2 and it works. Just flashed the new ROM with it. Didn't knew the 3 year old HD2 was already anticipating on XC. "
onwards and upwards...

I'm surprised, 3 years old phone supports 32 GB card. I am using Cotulla's LEO "Stock" NAND Android ROM.
IMO difference between Class 4 and 6 is minimal. A REAL Class 10 at 16 GB may be a better deal.

From what I've read class 4/6 performs somewhat better in general use of the phone except obviously moving large files to the sdcard such as ROMs, and using the video camera to write large files for general use I've read that class 4/6 are somewhat better.
I'm currently using Kingston C10 32gb without problems.
