Ok no test yet, but bought a new sandisk 8gb class 4 SDHC card (RETAIL) came with packaging (Bought retail cos i wanted to be sure i got the good stuff)
Put it into the Kaiser, did a soft reboot and and clicked on settings >>Memory>>Storage Card - it says 7782.47MB free!
Wahaaay! Looks like ive got myself 8gb of storage for mp3's, movies and files for my kaiser now!
I will copy over some songs during the weekend and give a final update on how its going, but from first looks, its brilliant!!
Very excited to have so much more storage space on my lovely kaiser!
For those that want to know i bought at the ebay link below, but you can buy this card anywhere and it should work alright.
The ebay guy took a week to post it, and you might get it quicker elsewhere.

i've dealt with them in the past, they just kept giving me BS, when they had no item in stock, had to file a complaint on paypal to get a refund from these guys, and i won .

That's a standard SD, it won't work in your phone. I got one of those (except made by OCZ - 8gb/Class6) a few months back for around $40/shipped (USD).

Which one wont work? The San Disk one? Or the cheesy looking AData one?
the sandisk one will work, the other adata wont work since its not a microSD.
£44 inc delivery
£44 from a store with an apparently good reputation: http://www.modaco.com/content/Windows-Mobile-News/263088/8GB-microSDHC-reader-44-41-DELIVERED/

I read on eBay reviews that if it did not have the SanDisk hologram then it is not authentic/authorized for sale.
How true is that?
I previously purchased some SanDisk flashdrives on eBay and they looked and felt genuine...
Yesterday Im buy SanDisc microSDHC 8GB and work ok with my HTC Tytn II...

I purchased a Sandisk (genuine?) 4GB HC microSD card off of eBay for $60 and so far it works great.
I've heard that the official word from T-Mobile is that it isn't compatible but I thought I would give it a try anyways and viola...
I'm hopeful that the 8GB one will work too.
nice good to know, well i dont think t-mobile ever gave an official word bout it :O
found the answer...

I was looking at the stats of the Wing from the T-Mobile manual, and it states it supports SD 2.0, which means SDHC (up to 32 GB capacity.)
I'm willing to bet that the 8GB one will work without issue.
anyone else got it working? I bought a sandisk 4gb sdhc card and it doesn't work.
Found out my card was bad, waiting for the replacement
It's 100% compatible...
And this is the compatibility list:
http://www.sandisk.com/Compatibility/DeviceList.aspx?DeviceTypeID=1007&ManufacturerID=1339
That is good as hell to know Thanks
Does anyone know if this will work? Couldn't find any info on Kingston.

8gb Micro SDHC
I can confirm that the 8gb Micro SDHC (class 2) works on the Herald/T-Mobile Wing. I just purchased it, and have been using it for almost a week now, with no problems. Both Windows and Mac recognize it as 8gb (less when formatted) while it is in the phone, and have no problems reading or writing to it. I hope this helps if anyone was wondering.
8gb hdsc
hey everyone this is my first post but I would like to let everyone know that I bought a 8gb sdhc card a while back off amazon for 29.99 and it works in the wing. ive been using it for a little while now so.

Be careful Buying cheap SD Cards. They could be counterfeit from an unreputable dealer.
Like they always say, "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."
New egg has an A-DATA 16GB Secure Digital High-Capacity (SDHC) Flash Card Model TurboSD SDHC 16G for US$43.99 plus shipping.
I agree with Jimmy, but personally am running an A-data now. There is a review on the newegg site where a customer claims to have had 3 of these and 2 reported as Class-6 and one as Class-2. He says he RMA'ed the class 2 and got the other class 6.
I went ahead and grabbed one to check it out in my kaiser, no idea what I will ever store on it frankly. I can't fill up a 4gig now, or maybe I should say yet!

eBay is the worst offender!
I find that New-egg Is pretty good, they let my RMA if I have issues. Amazon as well, depending on the "seller." My top three: Amazon Direct, Adorama, and J&R Music/Computer World.

I have an 8 Gig which I purchased when they were still around $70 USD. I have mine pretty full with movies and music. I was away on business this past week and the music came in handy. I did notice that my 700 meg Divx movies stutter some and will need to go back to the 200-300 Mb movie size. I have never had problems with NewEgg. BTW - Segeway - Just purchased a Colby 7" DVD player which has both SD and USB ports on it. I was able to play the DiVx movies I have on my MicroSD card. They did not stutter on the Player. The player is a good deal right now for around 100 USD.
I got mine at Microcenter
4GB - $19.99
8GB - $49.99
I bought an 8gb microsdhc from newegg.com for under $30. Class 6
i just stole my 8gb from someone else..

I bought this memory card a couple months back for the same price at radio shack, works great. If you go on scandisk's website and look at their reviews a lot of them are complaining of problems with the Touch Pro. Mine has worked flawlessly and for 20 dollars you really can't beat it.
Newegg.com has a Transcend 8gb micro sdhc with adapter for $12.99
This is the one that I have
EDIT: They don't have this price anymore. When I bought it, it was $13, but it seems that they have raised the price to $17.49. It seems a little weird.
$17.29
I just ordered a hand full of these at $16.97 I was looking to order a few more and they went up a few cents but oh well, its free shipping and I got mine within 3 days! Thats the fastest I have received memory with free shipping off of ebay

great deal!!
When I purchased my htc fuze back in February, I insisted on buying all the accessories because I received half off all accessories. I even bought the screen protectors for the Iphone and had the customer representative cut them to fit my phone. Then I asked, have I bought all everything for this phone and he goes in the back and pulls out the price guide for the memory cards. I told him, my brother works for microcenter so I don't need any, but he looked up the price anyway. The 8 gig was 80 bucks and I started toward the door, then he shouted wait, I can discount it for 40 and you get half off.... that's how i ended up with my 8-gig san disk microsdhc flash card for 20.00

I second this, Adata is my first broken flash card and I have bought some unnamed brand.
A-Data or Transflash Class 6 is faster than Class 2 of the SanDust

I doubt the Kaiser is compatible with it. I think the highest it can take is 16Gb.
The Kaiser is compatible with the SDHC standard, therefore it should theoretically work with cards of size up to 32 GB. I haven't seen them on the market yet, though.

Hi there, I personally got a 32gb off eBay for my ATT HTC Tilt 2 8925! I have over 30gb of music, videos, and pics... with NO problems what so ever... NOTE: on eBay there are supposedly some FAKE micro SD disks... so I played it safe and bought the one packaged NEW by Verizon Wireless! Good Luck! =o)
On amamzon there is a 32gb verbatim mem card with microusb reader for 90$ /free ship
$150 on Amazon for a class 6.
I think I'll wait a few more months. But wow! In a few years we'll be buying a 512 GB card for that price!
should the card be partitioned to speed up access to data?
hey people...posted this new thread because i want to know if any of you are in use with a 32gb micro sd card and wanna know how is the feel likes with the android builds...
i currently use kingston 8gb microsd card class 4...
thinking to upgrade to 32gb....
please give your opinions and suggstions!!
thanks...
EDIT:i just ordered a kingston 32gb micro sd class 2....
hope android build should run fine as my 8gb
You should be fine. I've been using a SanDisk 32GB MircoSDHC card for months now, without any problems at all.
Best to all,

If you buy a 32Gb card ensure that it is a good one and do not buy one from Ebay if it comes from China and only cost ~$15.00. That is total junk!!!

its a kingston 32gb micro sdcard class 2..!!
i heard that sandisk cards is 3 times faster than kingstons... is that true?
When it comes, peel off the 32Gb sticker and you will find its a 2 or 4 Gb card. you can copy 32Gb onto it but it will be corrupted when you remove it from the pc...
Get your money back...
hey i dont think it could be that bad...if the item will be not the same as described on ebay i have the choice to return it back and get refund..!if the card will be 2gb or 4gb...!i have bought many things via ebay..also the 8 gb kingston class 4 i have all was fine and 100% as described...! anyway i hope this one will work fine

You can only wait until you get the card. I do hope that it works OK. However, just because mine did not turn out to be a good one, yours may. Good Luck. If it isn't, just get a refund from PayPal if you used them.

Here is hoping you got a good card. I did some researching and I can't find any 32GB class 2 cards by kingston. Seems they are all class 4. Wishing you luck.

Just as a bit of further info on the ones which I bought off ebay - they did tend to be reasonably good at refunding the £$ - I think they seem to go off the idea that it's a better business model to avoid negative feedback. A lot of buyers don't check these cards (and USB drives) properly and think it's all good and follow up with good feedback. Sometimes you might have to negotiate a decent refund though but stick to your guns and follow through with your dispute (item not as described/counterfeit) if required.
In any event, good luck.
Got a 32GB Micro SD card from Ebay from Hong Kong as well, a month or so ago. The card took almost a month to arrive. When i got it I tested the R/W speeds. They were awful. But, even so, i tried a consistency test. Of the 32GB of data copied, only 512 weren't corrupted. Basically, what the guy does is picks up faulty 512 MB MicroSD (faulty since they don't comply with Class 2 minimum requirements) and changes the Card information sector to inform the pc/device that it is 32GB when it really is 512. I confronted the buyer with this (had tons of positive reviews btw) and he said that he would refund me, and was sorry but it was an accident. I insisted he send me another card instead. A week later, i receive an email from ebay saying that this user had it's account compromised and that he seemed to be a known scammer. All great as you can see. Honestly, I will only buy again from Amazon or so...
Hopefully, the same won't happen to you. I felt so foolish... Particularly since I'm getting a PhD in Computer Science -_-'...

I don't believe there are any legitimate class 6 32gb cards available yet... I did a lot of research before buying mine and the best available so far from legitimate companys was class 4, so that what I went with. I got a class 4 32gb Kingston. And you're right, it doesn't look like Kingston released any class 2 versions, so make sure you thoroughly test your card. Its possible Kingston released class 2 cards for OEM purposes and never sold them retail, so they may be legitimate... but considering you bought it off eBay, I would have doubts its legitimate. Its best to buy flash memory from well known stores like newegg.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Also guys, before giving good feedback load the sd card with about 20Gb of data, remove the sd card then re-insert and see if the files are corrupt... I've found a few "32Gb sd cards" that will hold 32Gb of data and registers the files are still on the card BUT the info gets badly corrupted and disapears when you take out of the card reader.
Won't say ALL sellers are crooks on Ebay, but 99% definately are. Only advice would be to see if they have been a member for a long time, they don't seem to survive too long if they are crooks...
