Hey guys, anyone know where to get cheap microSDHC? I bought a 4gb one for $15 including shipping but have lost it and they don't sell it for that anymore. Any help? Anyone got a used one that wants to upgrade and willing to let go for cheap?

Ebay or Amazon

Yeah I would try ebay but I am tired of the fake memory cards that they are selling all the time. Even from Ebayer's who have almost 100% feedback and tens of thousands of feedback, I still received fake memory cards. This is because people don't know it is fake until they fill their memory cards up later and it doesn't work. I recently bought a 2GB memorystick pro duo and it could only hold 1GB and then the whole card became corrupted when I filled it past 1GB.
look no further then here:

I'm currently waiting for larger capacity and will also order from him ( already got 2 x 8GB MicroSD from him ... happy customer

Going to need to buy an SD card for my Exec soon, anyone have recommendations? From reading the forum I think the HighSpeed cards are no better in the Universal than standard cards. The speed only helps when used in a card reader on the PC, so the cheapest standard card is what I am looking for?
Merry Christmas to you all

I just bought a Transcend 4GB SD Card from :
http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=17231&ft=D
Great product at a great price.
Arrived yesturday works great with my XDA EXEC with no problems.
should have bought it from ebay, 4gb for 150 uk pounds
Not really, the best deal I found on ebay for a Transcend 4GB was £168 including delivery from USA.
From OraLogic I got it for £174.50 + VAT including free std delivery.
As this was a corporate purchase I can claim the VAT back , so for £5.00 more I get to buy from a UK company a product with a warranty that is covered in the UK. Not to mention the quicker delivery as its local compared to coming from USA.
If you are referring to the Adata 4GB cards on ebay, I have three friends who bought those and 2 out of 3 of them have problems with using them with their XDA Exec's.
better split your sd card into 2gb+2gb.rather than buy a whole 4gb.
just for precaution and separate into 2 sd card more easy.for example 1 for data and program and another for music,photo,etc.
Best I can find without going via ebay is at Novatech, 1Gb SD for £31.41+vat, find it here...

Lucky for me its only down the road so I don't even have to pay for shipping, but if anyone finds better please post here, thanks

Adata 4G SD card
Hi all! I have and am using Adata 4G SD card with my Qtek 9000 and O2 Exec without any problems at all. Works right out of the box. No formatting needed. Best of all, it has lifetime warranty. Been with me for more than a month now. Great buy actually!!!
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.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ADATA-8GB-SD-...ryZ98876QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
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

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...
Saw some on ebay, anyone get one yet?

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.

I don't know about getting microsd and such from ebay. Too many knockoffs and fakes.

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,
R
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!!!

hahaha..yeah i saw cards like one you discribed...i already bought one it comes from hong kong and cost with shiping overall 60dollars!
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.
ok guys..thank you all very much..i ll post a reply when the card will arrive in my hands and let you inform if its fake or not
so see ya soon
Happened to me about three times before I got the message. Run a test when you receive it...

thanks..i'll do it for sure...the good thing is that the seller's name is very different from the one that i bought the 32gb sdcard
hi,
just don't forget to provide us some "where to buy" links please...
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.
Komputerbay MicroSDHC 32 gig class 6
is what I have in mine. It's pretty nice. No Komplaints so far.

damn...i made a research also..and is the same..i didnt find any class 2..as you mentioned they are all class 4 and some class 6!i will cntact to the seller and find a solution..otherwise i will open a case to inform on ebay that the seller sell fake one sdcards..
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...
