Yeah i just bought an HD2 and i realized the seller ripped me off and didn't give me the sd card that comes with the phone..luckily i have a couple from before..i was wondering if its possible to grab the files off the sdcard that comes with the hd2 off the net?..so i could actually use the apps that come on the phone..eg the games..and stuff?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653563
The only files that are on the sdcard are the Transformer movies. Those can't be posted here but some have had luck going into a T-mobile store and getting the sdcard from a return.
i know if u have an account with demonoid, i remember seeing a torrent when i searched hd2 on there. all the files like the transforners movies, game files so that your shortcuts actually launch the games on there such as who wants to be a millionaire, etc.. if u dont have one, a demonoid.com account is something u need to get in your life . seriously..

Storage memory or RAM???
Any emails or SMS's you get should also be stored on the sd card. Also, use an explorer app to check your device, usually apps you have installed actually install to the device instead of sd card like you wanted, Tomtom was a good example of this. Just copy these problem apps to the sd card but don't forget to delete the old shortcut and make a new one so they still work.
Try to get rid of those ringtones sometimes supplied in the roms as these are a waste of space, especially if you are gonna use an MP3 as a ringtone.I did find, however, that you do need to have the message tones stored in windows directory on the device, just can't seem to find them on the sd card.
If its RAM, then there are apps using it. Try to get an app killer so it frees up some ram when you finish using them.
Just a few things you might like to check.
Cheers...

Well swearing in the OP is not a good way to get help, putting a lot of angry smilies in the OP isn't either.
Frankly, I am amazed you did got a response in this thread!
Please clean up your OP or I will delete the thread.
I am no longer able to see my memory card when i connect my phone to my PC and can no longer see it when i go into file explorer!! Can someone tell me what maybe wrong or possible solutions. It was just working a little bit ago and then i can no longer get into the memory card through my PC or on the phone.
if i put a different memory card in the phone it will read it, it just wont read the card that came with the phone for some reason, what the hell is going on here?
Ehh not looking good here. While your phone is connected to the PC make sure 'Disk Drive' is selected and not 'Activesync'. If nothing still, I suggest placing the SD card in a USB reader and plug it directly into the PC. You should have your answer there. Good luck.
i just think its weird that my phone will read other memory cards and not the one that came with it, but when i put the 16gb card in a diff phone it is readable?
starkall, I would suggest copying everything that's on the card to your PC (using another phone or a card reader), placing the card back in your HD2, and doing a format right on the phone using the native utility for that (settings-all settings-system). This has cleared up the "disappearing card trick" for a bunch of people
when i use a card reader for my pc it wont even show up, can anyone send me the stock files that come on the original SD card. Thank you
i tried doing the facotry reset also and it still wont read the card, im lost i guess LOL
yeah sounds like a bad card. there should be a dl list of all the stock apps here on xda. look in the htc leo section, i believe there is a sticky on it and that you can dl each .cab one by one. the only thing that you may not be able to find here is the transformers movie files due to copyright. other than that, i'd hit up tmobile and get a replacement phone or sd card or both.
is there a way to delete all the icons from my phone that dont work now, like transformers, blockbuster, mobitv, barnesnoble etc... since i cant use them

Using file explorer (either on the phone or through activesync), just navigate to windows/start menu. There you will find the .lnk icons for everything you find on your start menu and in quicklinks. Delete or rearrange those (into folders for example) however you wish...they're just links.
EDIT: for mobitv, blockbuster, etc (everything except the movies really) you can download and reinstall the apps...they're all available at the thread ryan562 mentioned, and here's a link to it (it's also stickied at the top of this forum section):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=663845
Just look for the two links there with "extracted cabs" in the title
the movies is what i wanted most LOL i called HTC and they are sending me a new card but are out of stock at the time being, BUMMER i know!!!!! I put my buddies SD card out of his HD2 in my phone and everything works so hope i get my new card soon, my son loves to watch transformers.
I use astro and in the home panel with all my folders there are a bunch of other things floatin around in there. Id like to know if i can get rid of them or even put them all in a seperate folder. Heres a list:
.thumbdata
Autorun
CDAinfo
com.handcent.nexts (2 of these actually)
default capability
memstick info
memstick
MSTK_PRO
Temp 16464 thumb
Really its just a matter of clutter....reg files mixed in with my nicely organized folders....very bad.

Rather than sending out a CD with the phone. SE have put all the applications you might need to access your phone, on the memory card. (PC Companion for a start).
I suppose if you make a backup of those files, then there is no reason why you can't make more room on the card and tidy it up a bit.
speaking of memory card.
does anyone know what the maximum size is that the x10 can recognize??
I think they mentioned 16gb but few people have reported 32gb to work an all
-------------------------------------

It will support 32gb. However you'll likely end up spending as much on the card as you did on the phone. I think they run at least $200 usd. Probably wont stop me from getting one when they arrive here in CA.
I've done format on XPERIA sd card by chance and I must to recover all data which were on card before format (inc. PC Companion instal, instruction, folders, files, etc.)
Do somebody can create copy of memory card and upload on server (rapid, hotfile, etc.) or send me on my private mail: [email protected] ??
It's very important for me, because it's not my phone.
Regards, Tom
I just switched from the iPhone 4S 64 GB AT&T to the Note 3 32GB AT&T and put in a Sandisc extreme 64GB microSDXC.
I had problems with the iPhone freezing and crashing. Doing a factory reset, a lot of my programs disappeared from iTunes. It was getting to be really annoying.
On the Note 3 I love the screen (size and resolution) and many other things. Asphalt 8 and RealRacing 3 look and play great.
While I had to call AT&T to block my outgoing Caller ID, I could do that from the Note 3.
There is no sales tax on purchases from Google Play store in Texas, while Apple always charged me 7-7.5% (I know because there is no "retail presence" of the Google Play store in TX).
Bad annoyance: I did, for as many programs as I could, the "Move to SD Card" and now I have ugly default android gray icons with SD in the right lower corner. How do I get the original icons back without transferring back to "device memory".
I am trying to upload music files to the SD card.
When I use Samsung Kies 3, will it upload the files to the SD (did not see an option for that anywhere). If it does not install it to the SD card: where are those files uploaded and how do I transfer the files over to SD and how do I play the files/playlists? Is there a way to directly transfer the files from the computer to the phone bypassing Kies. How and where do I upload books (pdf and other formats)?
Anyone know if there will be a combination extended battery/wireless charging case in the future?
My 14 days return time frame is not over, but they would have to "pry it from my cold dead hands".
The way I would do it is to just take the SD card out of the phone, stick it in the computer, copy and paste. The music player should find the songs automatically. As for the icon thing with the "move apps to SD card".... I don't know about that one. I haven't seen any reason yet to do that.
Welcome to Android, where you can use any file explorer on any OS to copy any file you want to any location on your phone.
You don't need to use Kies for media. Just use the phone and SD like you would any usb storage. In the music app you can then either select the specific folder, or let it scan the entire device.
Also no need to convert files, it plays pretty much anything. (and if the stock player won't, another will. For video I suggest Diceplayer from the start.)
Kies is for backup and sync, everything else you can do the good oldfashioned way. Most of us have never even installed Kies.

OK first you need to release the mindset of itunes for everything as in with Kies. DONT USE KIES lol
Just plug in your note 3, open up the folder you want, it will say phone or card
Drag the files you want. If thats not cool with you, there is an app called iSync that can copy your iTunes playlist over to your phone.
Also I think you should leave your Apps on the phone memory and not on the SD. Use the SD for media and your internal for apps and such. This way if you need to replace the sd or whatever you will be good.
Historically Google removed that option from android because it causes issues like for example the corrupted icons you've experienced. Samsung only added it back in with the 16 gb s4 because the system rom got so big it left users with less than 9 gb available space.
As the poster above said chuck all your media files on the external card. The 25 gb you will have initially available internally is more than enough for all of your apps unless you install a dozen or more high end games. Likely you'll only ever play a few at a time and then remove them when you get bored, at least I do.

Thanks for all the tips. I will try it tonight.
Welcome to Android, enjoy the coming months of playing around and finding out what you've been missing out on! I was an apple user until the Galaxy S2, since then I've never looked back! One little warning though, customisation becomes addictive... Flashing Roms, kernels, rooted apps/services.
Xda has some amazing devs contributing and as always they are happy to help a friendly fellow androider.
Back on topic though, I wouldn't even bother moving your apps the SD card? 32GB is loads of internal storage! Even tho we only see 25(ish)of that, below is my games folder and I have 8GB of internal memory left! But if I feel like freeing up space I'll simply use Es file Explorer and copy the game files from Android /data to my SD card (if rooted, use titanium backup app to backup the apk of the game) and swap back in at a later date if I wanted to play again
Hope this helps :thumbup:

I saw iSyncr in the app store for $3.99 but there were a lot of 1 star ratings.
I will do the direct copy via Windows.
While I'm a newbie I don't consider myself brain dead and I'm VERY determined in finding solutions when I have a problem . So trust me when I say I've spent hours trying to find info on this. I'm not sure if my search skills are off or if my phone is meant to work this way but the only answers I got were from my own accidental discoveries !!
Here goes the issues all tie in: First I tried backing up my contacts with an app, from my old Infuse to my new Grand Prime, both phones had the same versions running of the backup app. I put the backup file in as many places related to that app on my Grand prime but the app could not find it in any folder even though I could see it in 'my files' . After 5 hours I took a hiatus and noted I could have manually copied my contacts in an hour lol
Next I copied my music to my phones storage hardly rocket science; getting an app to play it was though !!
I Downloaded 3 different music players none could find my music to play of course I could see it in my files.
Then I Downloaded 2 ringtones again saved on my phones storage in a folder already named Ringtones - pretty straight fowards me thinks ha !! I could not add the ringtones via settings/ ringtones because they were not found.
Lastly photos that I sent from my old phone and computer via Bluetooth that are saved in the folder called download would not show up in my Album .
So a week later of hell and no closer to getting anything to work I was reading about a fix for the ringtone (turned out to be a different phone) but it suggesed creating a folder on my sd card and putting the appropriate file in it.
Example Ringtone folder and putting a ringtone file inside. Music folder and mp3 inside.
And then ........VOILA ... omgeee the apps start finding stuff. UGH, seriously? ? Is this how things should be or is my phone not "right" because after this week I'm certainly not right; )
On my old Infuse the files could go anywhere either sd storage or phone emulated storage obviously with the apps correct path but either way they would be recognized by the app or OS they did not solely have to reside on the SD Card.
With people changing phones often I find the idea of creating correct and specific folders and paths to be too convoluted for the average Joe and so I come to the conclusion my phone must be f'd ???
I'd love some clarification from guys in the know lol cause asking at my local phone store gets me blank stares !!.
So much talent, there must be an answer !!

I was really hoping someone would have an idea here as there are so many highly intelligent people working with Android on this site ,
I went to Fido but I knew way more than them, they sent me to Phone Lab the guy did EVERYTHING I did and was no closer, I called Samsung which said there must be an internal memory problem, send in the phone for repair.
I wish I could fix it without that HUGE inconvenience, any help would be appreciated .
