did anyone tried an 32gb microsd on a htc touch pro (raphael)? i wonder if it will work. htc says that 16gb will work.. but 32gb is more interesting for me...
who can help me out
You'll need a time machine; there are no 32 GB micro SDHC cards available at this time. The highest you can find right now is 8 GB -- 16 GB is supposed to be coming in the next month or two.

I just found one on eBay
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-SANDISK-1...1115134QQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116
If you don't mind paying over the odds.
I've already ordered one from MobyMemory though so I guess I'll have to wait.

Its a shame that some people really do live in a fantasy world???
Scandisk have not even released to Japan yet, never mind Europe! & most definately NOT last week???? The official 1st release is next week with all legitimate suppliers taking pre-orders and being very clear that this is the case!
Here's a response from the Ebay Seller quoted by our friend elroy944 after I though I would see what happened if I place the order with next day delivery offered:
EbaySeller said:
Hi there, we have just received delivery of the memory cards and sandisk have only sent us half the quantity we ordered. We can not supply you with this memory card until middle of next week. Please advise if you wish for a full refund or for us to post out when we receive next week. Apologies for any problems this may have caused but as you can imagine this has caused us a lot of pain as we have sold several of these that we can not deliver. Many thanks for your understanding and please advise for a refund or to wait, thanks

Now theres a suprise?
i don't have a sandisk there is only micro sd written on mine one, the link i provided was the one i searched that day. i can't find the one i bought anymore
Mymemory have them but I wouldn't pay 47 pounds for a card that will be half that price in a couple of months
http://www.mymemory.co.uk/Micro-SDHC?&filter=16384#memFilter
there is no 32gb of microsd on the market.
16gb is just starting these days.
Just some people like to spread fake info. May be they feel "cool" then

If you check you will see thay are actually "out of stock" and taking pre-orders only! They dont get stock until the 24th September at the earliest? so I dont think you'll be paying £47 for anything until next week at the earliest?
MODS: Now we've established that you cant get the 16gb card until next week - and that there is NO item as yet with 32gb capacity can we close this thread? There is after all already a legitimate thread covering the 16gb card?
.
If you buy a shady 16GB card, I suggest you try to fill it all up with data to see if it REALLY is 16GB and doesn't just report 16GB when it really isn't.

Obviously that'll be a class 2 card, so filling that up will take a while! AND it won't be cheap.

So where is the best place to order one from?Any brands to AVOID? Is the sweet spot money wise 8 GB? I'm talking class 6.
Man I ask a lot of questions.

Depends, how fast are you looking for?
I picked up 2 Transcend 8 gb Class 6's on Amazon for 17 bucks each.
I figured its not kingston or san disk but hell 17 bucks is cheap.
Not to mention I have a transcend Flashdrive and transend ram in one machine, it can't be that bad.
I ordered them tuesday, haven't gotten em yet. But I'll let you know how it does monday when I get them. They are actually probably waiting at the office for me....damn I should have had them shipped to the house instead...thanks for making me realize I am a moron. errrrrr....
EDIT:
I have heard TopRam stuff doesn't last, but there is a lot of it out there for cheap. Could be a good alternative if you don't mind buying stuff 2 or 3 times. reviews tend to be negative, or at least highly mixed with them.
The transcends seem to be sold out Thats a good sign.
good question
I would also be interested as well. I'm using stock card that came with the phone. I'd like to move up but don't want to over pay.

I guess I told too many people about the steal of a deal.
I got the Transcend 8gig from amazon.. No problems at all so far....
I too am using a Transcend off of Amazon. No issues here, and I will always go class 6 or higher from now on in any of my devices to ensure that I don't get hampered by speed. No issues on any of the ROMs, and I tried just a few out today, to the point everyone was asking what the heck I was doing to my phone.
+1 transcend on amazon class 6. it is greeat.
I've had no problems with the Transcend I purchased from Amazon
Got my new Transcend SD's today. Anyone know of a good app to test the speed? I have seen some benchmark stuff on the forum, but I am not sure what they are using to get their numbers.
What I've been using to benchmark my phone's speed is the app called 'benchmarkPi'. Speeds under 9000ms are pretty good.
Edit: app name correction
I got the Transcend 8gb class 6 off of newegg website. $19.49 with free shipping. Works great. Model TS8GUSDHC6.
*I also use Transcend RAM in my desktop computer and never had any issues.
Easy way to test the speed is to copy a large file from you computer to the sd card. It will show you the transfer speeds as it copies. The Transcend 8 GB I have will sustain 12-13 MB/s copying a 300 MB file to the card.
Look up crystal disk, it will give you a benchie of the card (in windows of course).
Not sure how great it is, but seems like a decent deal: http://dealnews.com/PQI-8-GB-Class-6-micro-SDHC-Card-for-15-free-shipping/361308.html
PQI's a known memory name. I bit on the 8GB transcend on the egg.
According to a few benchmarks, at worst case scenarios, PQI barely exceeds the Class 6 read speeds (at which isn't bad), but it also barely exceeds Class 2 write speeds (which is really bad!). So I got one for $15...
But PQI is known to had write speed issues in many of their flash products.

Try Newegg. Bunch of 8GB class 6 cards for around $20 (if you can't get any Transcends...I think they have the Transcends for around $18-$19.

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!!!

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

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.

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...
I was going to buy the 32GB Samsung class 10 card, but after reading up, I found that the class 4 and 6 cards are actually better for Android devices because they have better random read/write speeds. I ordered from Amazon and I'm expecting it on Wednesday... I hope it was worth the $40...
