Well 4 GB or 8 GB cards r kinda big for p3400
such big cards will slow down gene, since it has very slow Processor already.
but u can go for 2 GB card...its good...and cheap also...coming in Rs 200 only.
i will recommend you Kingston or Transcend's card...they r best
^Thats a myth, Storage card never slows down phones. I am using a 4G card and my phone works just fine as it was like with 2GB. Your phone slows down when you put too much stuff in one folder. Apps like Pictures and Videos tend to slow down with this as they have a large amount of data to sort through before displaying it to you. But if you arrange your stuff in folders well, it wont slow down you phone.
GENE supports micro SD, Mini SD, SDHC and SDHO cards of upto 32 GB in size. 8 GB SD would be a good one to go with. Just make sure its an SD Card.

Thanks Sir..!!!
i am going to Buy a Kingston 8 gb as soon as possible i get my Pocket money...!!
But please tell me tat is it is going to work for my New Phone..as it is Just 27 days Old..!!
i have not even installed a Simple program in it...!!
And not even thought of flashing it wit some new ROM or Something......!!
Thanks ...!!
Yes its gonna work perfectly fine. If you are in doubt then try to convince the shop keeper to let you check the card first for proper working, or try someone else's card if thats available. I have full confidence that it will work but whats the problem is checking if it is possible. I myself have only tested upto 4GB.
I am also using a 4 GB Kingston SD Card with absolutely no performance issue so far. Come one with around 3 GB of songs, do I have a choice .
Okk....Thank u sir...!!
There's one more request..to u sir..please tell me is there any chances that my........PDA can be infected from virus....If No then its okk...!!

I am also not very old to Windows mobile but i haven't heard of any viruses for it. I think, for now there is nothing to be worried about.
For increasing volume of MP3 ringtones, Use MP3Gain. Download it from here:
http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/download.php
Its a very good software for increasing sound non-destructively. That means that if you anytime use it to decrease the volume of a file that you previously increased, it wont affect its quality in any way.
Re: Antivirus
Yeah, I have been using a smartphone for around one and a half year with lots of net access, no virus so far. Actually what I found from most forums is that virus in WM is a hoax.
thank you sir for the info on sd and viruses
thanks u sir for the INfo....!!

Well, there are viruses for WM as a report by the McAfee.
But, if you know what you are installing, then you won't get infected.
Not much chances of infecting as very less viruses are there. So, see first what you are installing.

if 4gb works fine same as 2gb y to stick wid 2gb card?
I recently upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 from 2.1.
After upgrading, my phone no longer detected my 32GB SD.
I spent a lot of time researching the issue and found that most people just went to a smaller card like I did.
I went out and bought a 4GB card.
After loading my phone up with apps and audio and images, 4GB was not enough.
So, here is how I resolved this...
I downloaded HPUSBDisk.exe which is an HP USB format tool.
Copied the content of my 4gb micro to my PC/Laptop.
I inserted my 32GB micro SD into a "micro sd USB adapter"...
Format the SD using the HP USB format tool (FAT).
Copy the contents from the 4GB to the 32GB.
When I placed the 32GB into the phone and powered it up it was now recognized.
weird, I own a 16GB card and never had problems with 2.3.3
actually never heard about this problem until today

16 GB are not really a issue.
I use a 32gb from Kingston and have no issues. ??? Think maybe it's not the memory size that is the problem. Maybe it got corrupted? I had that problem on a smaller card on a round of back to stock while playing around with ROMs and such. Formatted it on PC and all was fine... think it was 8? Was a while a go. But I've heard of it happening while updating, read about it after I had the issue with the card that came with my x10.

1. X10i officially supports cards by a capacity no more than 16 Gb. However, most cards 32 Gb work normally too.
2. A card can be formatted by standard facilities of Windows, it is important only, that a clustersize was 32 Kb

thank you

I have an X10a... but whatever.
When I flashed my 32gb SD using Win7, regardless of the cluster size, it would not work in my phone. Period.
I am NOT the only one who has had this problem nor am I the only one who found success in my method.
The 32gb I have in my phone right now, was formatted using the HP Tool at 16kb...

FYI:
"Memory Phone memory up to 1GB
microSD™ up to 32GB, 2GB included"
(obviously the original specs, mine came with 8GB)

Yes but quite a few cards seem to have bad compatibility.
I'm curious if it's a certain class of cards that cause issues, or if it's certain vendors or brands? Do certain brands format them different and that causes the issue?
I researched what class was supported and bought a brand name (Kingston) that isn't high end but from a reputable business so I knew it wasn't fake. Bought a 32gb class 4 Kingston from Tiger Direct, popped it in and it worked fine. I put it in and tried it before transferring data to it.
I'm definitely not discounting the issue, but finding out WHY the issue is there is what I'm curious about.
i heard SDHC work the best but i'm idk the difference really, all i care about is the memory on the card

MY 16GB class 4 & 32GB class 6 KINGSTON both worked very well with no issue's.
Having the same problem!
I just upgraded my X10a to 2.3.3 and it's not detecting my 8gb SD card, I re-intalled the 2.1 android and the card worked fine, then I upgraded it again to 2.3.3 and formated the card, didn't work... I don't know what to do now!
Having a similar problem!
Hi, I've been having a problem with mi 8GB SD card, the thing is that I just Upgraded my X10 to 2.3.3, but it's not detecting the micro SD, it was working fine till I did the upgrade, so I took the card and plug it into the PC, it is working, then I tried changing the fortmat, didn't work either, so I changed it back to Android 2.1 and It got it working again, I tried one more time to upgrade to Android 2.3.3 and the problem persists, all the apps and features are working just fine, but the phone it's kinda useless without the microSD...
Anyone that knows what the problem might be, please reply, cuase it's very frustrating!!

The stock 8GB card in my x10 died quite fast.
They get scratched underneath easily.
Hate to bump up an old-ish thread. But I came across the following article and the pertinent quote from it is "We tested this card on some phones including Motorola Razr and Samsung Galaxy S2 and even on a year old Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 and it works fine"
So it looks like this old dog was still able to use a 64GB micro sdxc card.
But at 110$ USD (cheapest I've found so far)... might not be worth it yet.
Hello everyone.. I've been a lurker of the forums for the last 3 or so years, and... Well finally decided to make an account as I really can't find any help anywhere else, plus you guys are awesome, really
I'd like to make it clear first that my problem is unrelated to similar threads as I will explain...
My S4 spits out my SanDisk Ultra 32GB (Most threads point to 64GB) MicroSD card whenever I play music, irrelevant of player.. (Samsung default Music app, and PowerAmp Pro.) Usually when launching, it is unnecessary to play a file.. Both ejecting and re-inserting the card manually or restarting the phone does absolutely nothing...
I've had this issue since firmware release AMDE, though it was tolerable as it only occurred once a week or so... Since EMK8 however my phone is absolutely useless when it comes music as this occurs when launching any music app...
I should point out, I've tested the card further on an i8190 using benchmarking and SD testing apps as well as the 2 music players I use on my i9505 and it had no issues what so ever...
PS: Suffice to say I did a wipe with every firmware upgrade....
I'm assuming this is most likely a device issue, but I tripped Knox Warranty to 0x1 when rooting the day I got the phone (I got it when MH8 released, but used the old firmware for a few hours..)
What can I try? Has anyone with the same issue found more luck with another music app?
Thank you in advance
Try to format the sd card.. and if you want, format it from the phone itself.. Good luck

Thank you, though I don't think I really wanna touch that.. Seeing as if the card decides to unmount in that way it may end up worse, I think....
I've been searching a bit more and found a thread on another forum, it appears that the 32GB SanDisk Ultra card is giving problems with many Samsung devices, maybe I was just lucky with my old S3 Mini... I guess it's time to go back to Lexar cards again for me...
Well, I've made a couple of new discoveries and am glad to say that the issue has been resolved! It did take a bit more investigating to find out the cause, however.... Apparently the issue occurs when using the early 32GB and 64GB SanDisk Ultra cards on Samsung devices whilst having the 'bloatware' version of Dropbox installed... Why? I have absolutely no clue.. But since removing Dropbox everything seems to be working okay.. Around 5 hours daily testing over the last couple of days and haven't had a single eject in the process... Admittedly the cause seems to be completely unrelated.... But, alas... Hope this may help someone with the same issue in the future.
Best way to describe the issue is when I take a photo the end result is a the photo obscured by a grey box. I have changed for now all my photos to be stored on my phone device and then I move manually to my SD card. I am not sure why this happened only started a couple of days ago. If I try to upload a photo to FB it says it is not a correct piece of media also I have noticed apps are disappearing from my device and i think these are apps that were stored on the SD card... Could the SD card be corrupt? it is a 64GB card I am running all stock software apart from Nova Launcher (free version) and using DCikonz for icon... I've not had any issue and I have had the SD card for months now.
You are right. My cousin had same problem. Your SD is corrupted. He changed it and he is happy now :highfive:

Hello there,
My Sd Card Recently unmounted unsafely through boot.
I was using the rom Omega v25, SD was damaged.
Is there any solution to fixing it?
I had tried formatting it but there is no media to format.
Any help would be appreciated.
I can not see it in recovery totally invisible, Ive tried mounting it through Phone settings and it will not mount.
Can not mount it through recovery either.
It does not show up in Partition Wizard for me to change the format.
I Have attached a Image for what it shows in disk management.

Yes yes yes... if I can add, I'm just awaiting for my super duper 128GB micro SDXC card which will be delivered to me by man with big red flag and trumpet, followed by special courier riding the golden donkey. They have to move slowly on motorways, so they are moving in the police escort, but today, finally, I will have my card.
did I mentioned that it will have the warranty covering the lifetime of 4 generations?
Going back to topic: I always think that ppl can be divided into the two categories:
Cat 1: those who are making backups regularly;
Cat 2: those who will learn that they shall do...

Of course I know Ritek. A brand that also makes writeable media. A brand I also avoid like the plague as it's substandard.
So, still waiting for an a-brand micro SD card, 32GB, 5 pounds.
Anxious!!!
