Increase Install time? - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Hello,
I bought a HD2 a couple of month ago for testing reasons.
And because I'm a Windows Phone 7 friend, I flashed the WP7.5 Roms but I find the Install times horrible.
Is it because I use a old 8 GB Micro SD from my Milestone?
Because if a new MicroSD would help, i could have a second WP7 Phone ready, next to my Omnia 7.

Yes a new SD card would make it much faster if it is class 6 or 10.

[Q] Format SD in Android Before First Use?

So, when getting a new SD or just while using one in Android in General. Should you format it with the PC, or with Android?
I have my stock 16GB Class 2 from my HD2 running Android, but I just got a 16GB MicroSDHC Class 10 I plan to use now instead.. Should I just copy everything over and use it, as it's a brand new card. Or is formatting before First use a good idea? Also I've read it's best to Format in a Android Device as it will format it for best Android Compatibility. Whats everyone's take on this?
Thanks!

[Q] SD 2GB mem card working with android but not 16GB

Im trying to use the android running fron the SD card from another post, the android is under development still, but or some reason it only works on my 2gb mem card and not my 16gb card. is it maybe because of the format?
the 2gb came with the phone, but i formated my new 16gb on the phone but it still doesnt work.
thanks
this is all on the htc hd mini (photon) btw
You just Format your 16GB SD to FAT32, and copy the Cotulla's Android to your SD then open Explorer on your phone, and tap on HaRET.
That is it.
Of me, the Android works, but it's too slow mine, microSD 8GB
i'm using an 16 gb microsd on my mini and it runs android very well (fast) and in my opinion any 16 gb card should work since 16 gb are relatively new and faster than the smaller ones .Keep trying ,format the card on pc ,i personally formated with the phone's formating tool
damn.. one of the times i tried it did the start up video (very slowy) and then froze, now just keeps freezing on the load bar agen. i formated it using the phone formater as its the only way i can. but still bein gay.
ive got a string feeling its due to the type of memry card, as my difrent branded 2gb one works fine, but when the android is eventualy 100% done i wont be able to have it all on my 16gb

[Q] problems when upgrading defy memory card

Hi all,
Last week I tried to upgrade my wife's defy memory card from the 2 GB card that came with the phone to a new Sandisk micro SDHC 4 GB card.
I copied all the data from the phone to a folder on my personal computer, than copied it to the 4 GB card that was mounted on my phone and than replaced the cards.
The phone booted with no problems but short after the main screen was up, the phone got stuck and wouldn't react to anything until all i could do is to take out the battery and boot again.
For now i installed the 2 GB card again and the phone works fine...
Any idea what i did wrong during the process and how i can install the 4 GB card?
Her phone has stock ROM (2.2) and is not rooted.
Thanks...
Have you tried to run without a card? What data do you store on the old card??
Hi, Defy with 2.2 Froyo and Defy+ have problems wiht SDHC cards clas 6 and 10.
Card be come read only. Clik
OK...
So after breaking my head for about a week, here are my conclusions:
First of all, Nikoili, I tried to install a class 4 4GB sandisk SDHC card, so that wasn't the problem. Thanks anyway
Second, tomarsenal, i tried to run the device with no card, it worked with no problems so i understood that there is something in the content on the card that must be getting him all "crazy".
I deleted everything except the camera and music folders and began to play with the device, I saw that some of the predefined settings for some of the apps were gone (GO-Launcher setting for example) but it wasn't a big deal to set it again.
For now, the device is working fine (even quicker IMHO) and it looks that every app that saved some data on the card, had done it again on the new card so no crucial data was lost in the transfer.
Thanks all for your help...

SD Card not working on Mango Builds

It's been a while to install and test WP7 on my hd2 and i decided yesterday to install Mango builds. I have tested 2 builds and they are saying that my SD card is damaged and needed to be changed. My SD card is fine though [Kingston 16gb class 4] and i've tested it a while back and it worked just fine with NODO builds..
Is there a problem with Mango? Just asking because i can't see a solution to this and if you search the forum there is only one unanswered question.
The only solution is to use another card?
I 've tested a Chinese 8gb class 4 card a while back and it worked flawlessly. Maybe this is the answer! Buy Chinese cards!
