You have already stated the reason for your problem. If your 4gb has the 3 partitions, Some of what you need to run your rom has already been moved to the ext partition on your 4gb card. Copy the rom to your 8gb and use it to flash your phone.

Anyone using ADATA Class 6 8GB for Android

I'm running android on an ADATA Class 6 8gb microsd card. But I'm experiencing SODs after 2 days. I think its SD card corruption thats causing the SOD
Anyone using the ADATA SD card?
Thanks!

Did you try it only with one build, or did you try a few?

i'm using it with the following perfectly fine.
baseband - 15.42.50
kernel - mdeejay S 3.1
Build - mdeejay Froyo revolution
I have been using the same sd card for the past few months running all different kind of android build as main OS for my phone without adverse effects.

Put the card into a computer and run a checkdisk for fixing errors...

Ive tried several roms. Matt Leo, MDJ Clean, MDJ Evo Sense and they've all had problems. I've scanned the sd for error and defraged the sd card as well.
I might try a few radio combination, but I'm currently using the latest radio. I've heard the 12 and the 14 radio works well.

I used an class 6 ADATA microSDHC card for a while, also 8GB. Stopped using it when I found out it was significantly outperformed by the class 4 Sandisk card I was using before.
It would seem not all class 6 cards are created equal.

i am using the 16gb ADATA (class 6) card, and have no problems with it.
//edit
why u defrag a SD card ? .. there is no need to do that

Just want to find someway to fix this 24 hrs sod problem.What did you guys do?

Did you try formatting the card? (Don't use the quick format option)

yesir... but after about a day or so the sod comes back

i'm using adata class 4 8GB card. Android is running fine for me. Although, i do reset my mob once a day almost daily...because i need to use software in Winmo, but it when running android there are no issues..

I have the same card as well, i'm not really experiencing any issues with my card so far and its been about a week or so. Im using VBN alt 2 with latest radio .. mdj froyo sense revolution 1.6

[Q] Need help with Micro SD

Hey guys,
I have been running Android on my HD2 for a few months now using the stock 16gb class 2 and had no real issues. I purchased a Patriot 8gb class 4 to replace the stock because I need it for another device.
I have tried formating it 32kb and 64kb, default allocation size and nothing has worked. After transfering the android files and running haret a few minutes later I get stuck on the boot screen. I tried a fresh install of various android builds and keep having the same problem.
Can someone tell me the correct way to prep this card for my HD2 to run android? Maybe a utility or something.
Link to the card's product page: http://www.patriotmem.com/products/detailp.jsp?prodline=4&catid=16&prodgroupid=78&id=730&type=15
Thanks

Give SD Formatter a try in quick format mode.
http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/
It formats FAT32 with 32kb sectors, and has worked well here with multiple class and size MircoSDHC cards. That said, 16GB Sandisk cards are cheap now. Maybe consider picking up another one and ditching the Patriot, if SD Formatter does not fix it up.
Best to all,
R

I'm sorry for you... That card is a junk! I also have that one and after many hours of frustrations end up buying sandisk 8gb class 4 for $15usd.
I have done all suggested ways to prep that card. If ever you will be able to boot, expect for minutes of lags.

I would recommend what has been said before, just re-format the SD Card.

Try to format the SD with Panasonic SDFormatter...

This card doesn't work properly, I had to change it to Sandisk 8GB class 2 to make WP7 work.

So, is no hope for this card and WP7?
I formating card earlier, but still dosen't work.

Few times it worked okay, but until restarting the phone, then problems started again, so best option for you is to buy sandisk class 2 card.

[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

it's Kingmax 16gb microsdhc class 2 (first time took android about 20 minutes to boot and now about 3-4 minutes )

Mine is writen (microSD), 8GB
in my Android, for first time had takes about 2 hours and creates Data File, but second time it's will boot about 33 Minutes (too much, isn't?) and the android runs but it's slow. I formated the SD with many Format programs.. all of them same things, I also upgraded my WinMo but it was same.
