4GB HC SD works on Wing!

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.

EDIT: Sorry its Mini... not micro.... I'll look for a link to the micro....

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.

for the best prices on sd's guys is to go to newegg.com.. its way sick.. thats where i got my 4gb.. its funny you guys asked and waited for response on if it worked or not.. i didnt care.. i just bought it before i even bought my phone lol!!! im a tard but hey luck was on my side lol!!!!!!!

I've ordered from this place several times and have never had a problem, and no..i do not work for the company..just tryin to share the wealth. Have a 4gb in my wing now, works perfectly.

Got 8gb Sandisk SDHC card today - SUCCESS!!

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.

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.

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...

Maximum Micro SD for Mogul

I am sorry, but I have searched before asking. What is the Maximum size that the Mogul can handle. I have heard between 4GB/8GB will work. But Before I buy, I would like to get your honest opinions as to what to buy.
Thank you for your input

I have had a SanDisk 8gb microsdhc that has been great. I don't believe you can find much bigger yet, but soon there should be a 12 or 16gb microsdhc released.
With the new ROMs you can use SDHC without issues, but you will need a non-sdhc to flash 1-2gb is best.

i think the 12 is already out, 16s were supposed to be available this month
SDHC is capable of up to 2tb, so theoretically so is the mogul

Thanx
I will go ahead then and get the 8GB version, thanx a lot for the input guys. I appreciate it

I believe you need to have the latest firmware to go over 4GB don't you?

anything after 2.09 supports 8gb, otherwise there is a cab with the driver for it

Using the 8gb sandisk (class4) in my mogul, be sure to get the one that includes a sdhc reader since 1st gen microsd readers can't read 'em. I believe mine was 50$ at newegg.

according to xe.com right now:

so, in US (amazon): 8gb microsd = $36.38 (£19.50)
in UK (7dayshop): 8gb microsd = $33.55 (£17.99)
oh well bought mine from amazon two weeks ago for $32.95
All good prices though!

That's how much I paid for mine from amazon, i ordered it monday.

newegg.com has an 8gig for cheaper.

I bought an 8GB MicroSDHC class 4 off of Amazon a few weeks ago for $28USD.

oh well i have a 2gig and was about to buy a 4 gig but i dont think i need it..... =\

Shipping included?

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!

I checked out that card. It looks like a standard size SDHC card, rather than the MicroSDHC that the Kaiser uses. How are you going to try it with your Kaiser?

Once Again I don't want to sound like I wear a tin foil hat. But I do computers for a hobby, a first, and a second job. I've seen LOTS of counterfeit stuff technology-wise out there.
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.

Cause it was 420 and I didn't read close enough, LOL. So scratch that I am going to use it in my camera. LOL

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..
(just kidding folks!)

Sandisk HC 16 gig Micro SD:

Recently bought one off of eBay for $40 (+ $9 3-day USPS shipping) and it works as good as gold in my HTC Touch Pro. It was listed as "bulk" and did not come in the official Sandisk blister pack; therefore, this could possibly be gray-market hardware, but it works as listed none the less.
Perfect amount of space for my GPS software and my music/talk-radio.
I have had it for about 5 days now and have had zero compatibility or usage issues.
Cheers!

Haha, he said possibly... I'm pretty sure that MicroSD card you just bought was not manufactured by Sandisk. Good to hear that it's working okay though.

Ya, well I bought a 16GB MicroSD card and it has been working FLAWLESSLY...until tonight. I was re-installing a ROM and re-installing TT7...when the install hung...told me it couldn't install...then the card just died. Hopefully SanDisk will RMA it...

Well, most suggest that you remove the SD card prior to installation of a new ROM. I am using my card with Elite RC2 Rom, but have not tried leaving it in while installing a new ROM.
At this point, I have purchased 3 Sandisk Micro SD cards (2 4 gig HC's, and 1 8 gig HC) over the past 1.5-2 years off of eBay and haven't had a single one of them fail... none of them came in Sandisk blister packs.
Time will tell...

I know, I did. The card died after I flashed the rom and was re-installing programs...

@DeniaL
Did you try and reformat it? It might just be a bad sector.

can someone find me a good deal on a 16 gb they are all like around 55.00

Im sure you could find one cheaper, but I am willing to bet is bootleg. Anyway the 55.00 ballpark is not that bad. Or you can wait till the 32gb releases. That will drop the price of the 16 big time.

Gotta link?????

Pretty cheap now. However, I have heard that class 6 speed with 16GB+ size cards can be unreliable....anyone know if there's any truth in this?

So is the SanDisk 16GB Class 2 card good? Mainly the class 2 part. Will it be much slower than my current class 4 8GB card?

I just got my Sandisk 16gb card. It was Sandisk branded in a Sandisk blister pack. It works, but so far I'm having intermittent problems with my MP3 files pausing and starting again. Sometimes worse than others. It happens with Kinoma, Coreplayer, Windows Media Player and the Sprint Music player. Are there any ways of minimizing this?

It will not be much slower (could even be faster). Check this thread, where someone posted his c4 8GB card benchmark, which was lower than my numbers posted at the end.

Try reformatting, and apply this patch as well. I got a bulk package from ebay, and I haven't had a single problem so far (more than 2 weeks).

Thanks so much! It seems to be performing much better. I will have to test it more over the next few days........

I just ordered and received this one:

It seems quite fine

What is the largest capacity the HTC Touch Pro can handle? I thought it was only a 8GB?
