just ordered my HD2 from Vodafone uk
and was going to put my Sandisk 8Gb Ultra Class 6 card from my HD1 into it.
but just found that my card is very slow.
tried my card in another HTC HD and takes ages to play music
but his card works great with no problem
so what is the best card to use???
which class?
and on the htc web site it says micro sd 2.0 what's that???
thx all
I think a Class 6 Card on the HD2 should be fast enough for it...
A card with 'Class 2' spec is similar to a card with a 'SD 2.0' spec
Is your card an original SanDisk card? Try backing up your files, then
reformat the card and see how it goes.
On my HD, a Class 2, and a Class 6 card (both Sandisk) works fine, so it should
be the same for your HD2 (tried a friend's while waiting for mine).

Format the card on the phone on which you intend to use it, it's best not to use a PC for this.

If the card specs are as above, the real questions to ask is what player are you using? and what size is the music library. Because if the first answer is Coreplayer, and the second is over 6Gb; then i would suggest you check the settings and disable the 'enable Library' settings
just got my 8gb transcend class 6 card and formatted it with my phone and put my data back on it. is there a benchmark tool to test it's speed?
and somehow rsshub didn't show my channels after I changed the card, I copied the data from the old card but rsshub seems to be back to factory settings, why?
I've got a 16GB Class 2 MicroSD here.
If I have that thing full of music is it going to **** up the HD2s music player?
Don't have my phone yet so cant test it.
just tested my Transcend 8GB microSDHC Class 6 card with SKTools Lite and it says 2MB/s write and 8MB/s read. that's kind of slow isn't it?
The SD association state "the minimum data transfer speeds for both SD/SDHC memory cards and SD/SDHC host products. This enhancement is easily recognized by three levels of Speed Class, class 2, 4 and 6. Speed Class 2 guarantees a minimum transfer speed of 2 mega bytes per second (MB/s), Speed Class 4 guarantees a minimum transfer speed of 4 MB/s and Speed Class 6 guarantees a minimum transfer speed of 6 MB/s." as to whether a read spead of 8MB/s equates to a transfer speed or not I'll let you find out yourself..
Just wait for SanDisk to release their 32GB microSD.
I will stay on my 8GB of my Kaiser till than...
anyone know when sandisk will release the 32GB ?

yeah but now is DECEMBER and the card not released yet !
I am using a Sandisk 16GB Class 2 : Works perfectly well
Also using a Generic (play.com) class 2 16GB and it works a treat. I watch xvid encoded TV shows and movies from it using Coreplayer and it works great.

I have a Sandisk 16GB Class 2 MicroSD card in my HTC HD2. Tried 350 songs stored on my memory card, and while in the Music Tab waiting for the library to be updated, HTC Sense/TouchFlo restarts itself over and over again. I don't think the Music Player in HTC Sense is that great.
I'm using Conduits Pocket Player for music and it works great. Just disable the Music Tab and HTC Sense should not crash if you accidently select that tab.
Using a 1.43 ROM by the way.
every time I connect my hd2 to my computer and after disconnecting it I can't access any of my music via the music player. it just does nothing, the library is empty and when I switch to landscape mode it says "no music found".
the only way to get it working is to reset.but that can't be it, what's wrong here?
I get the same - if I connect via USB as a mass storage device and then disconnect, I can't access my music library any more. Sometimes even a soft reset doesn't bring it back. Its really annoying! Best to use activesync I suppose but I use Linux quite a bit and it isn't an option.
No Memory Card access after a sync
I have the same problem - but I use Active Sync. I have only just figured out that the sync with my PC has been causing the problem.
Here is what has been happening.
If I DON'T sync with my PC - I can go for weeks with no resets and full access to all data and apps on my Micro SD.
As soon as I sync (via Active Sync - under XP) - the next time I want to run an app from my Micro SD - the HTC tells me it can't find it. My workaround has been to pull the cover off and eject then re-insert the SD (solves it 100% of the time) ... but I would love to know what is required to prevent this problem.
To test the above - I have just gone two weeks without the problem occurring even once (I was away and did not use active sync at all ... although I did use a laptop daily with the HTC connected ... but only as an internet sharing device NOT in any kind of sync mode). Now that I am back home - the first sync has resulted in the same of problem re-occurring.
Has anyone found the cause of this??
Cheers,
Scott
Happy New Year
I'm new to the site after just upgrading to the HTC HD2. Great site for a source of info.
I had a similar problem after transferring the files to the phone. Sometimes the files would show after transfer sometimes not. When I updated libary in the media player I was able to view all the files. I hope this helps, if you haven't tried already.
I'm also waiting for the 32GB card, but unable to find any info regarding the release date. Any news?
Hello,

Does your SD card work perfectly with Windows Phone 7?
If so, which capacity, brand, model and where did you buy it?
If not, what problem did you run in to, and which capacity, brand, model and where did you buy it?
NOT WORKING
Play.com 32gb SDHC (Unbranded / White label) here.
It seems to be incompatible with MAGLDR - it does not function in Mass Storage mode or in the SD boot mode.
When booting WP7, the phone just reboots after the Dark Forces logo is shown.

doesnt even work with magldr?? try formatting it on pc using panasonic sd formatter..
when it starts working on mass storage mode then perform the test on whether it will work on wp7 or not
----------------------------------
and to OP, transcend 2gb has issues for me.. sometimes wifi doesnt work.. sometimes it does but then wp7 gets really laggy and sooner or later just turns off (sometimes even hardresets)
multiple hardreset retries and it always ends up with the above issues.
Got mine with my HD2 TMobile usa, Scandisk 16 GB HC , WORKS EXCELLENT
Kingston 16gb, class 4 works fine. No problems... At least, not yet...
kingston sdhc 8gb class(4) - capacity avaible but phone have lags. reflashing wp7 nothing change
kingston sd 1gb - work fine
Kingston 8 Gb SDHC (Class 6) - Works great.
SanDisk 2 Gb - Works Ok.
Kingston 4 Gb SDHC (Class 6) - Works but is laggy when installing and running apps

I've tried that. It seems that there is an issue with MAGLDR - android, windows (PC) both see the card and read from it fine.
Perhaps MAGLDR doesn't like 32gb cards?
let me tell you..
I formatted my sd card in a thousand ways with all sorts of programs
NOTHING WORKED
you must have your SD card inside the phone when installing WP7,
then WP7 customises it and you are on.
Really strange though, I can sync in Zune but I can't view my SD card when I get it out of the phone.
Sd not working
I have the replacement SD from Samsung Class 2 16GB
It works with WM and Android, but not WP7
Honestly, I cant even find the location where I see the SD in WP7.
I keep getting the "Out of Space" message and I have to reboot to even get text.
Any ideas for some of this?
[UPDATE]
Fixed after reformatting the SD using my Camera, Then putting in the phone, and Re-flashing WP7
If your SD card was inserted when you first installed WM, then it's simply incompatible.
On the first boot, WM will format the card and initialise it for use. If it's not compatible, no go.

Same here. Works great!
WORKING
Sandisk Class 2 1gb
Sandisk Class 2 2gb-had some issues while shutdown
Sandisk Class 2 8gb
Sandisk Class 2 16gb
tested myself on 2 diff hd2(7)
hope it helps some one!
There is no pattern here.
Opening up this 2nd thread about SD cards is pointless and serves to do nothing but confuse, as it has been shown that two people with exactly the same cards can get very different results.
Suggest people just buy through trial and error/returning incompatible cards while waiting for some WP7 certified cards to come on the market. The fact that they havnt yet says alot.
Not working:
Transcend 8GB SDHC Class 6
my w7leo restarts every 5 to 6 minutes. Also I can not sync with my laptop which is w7 64 bit home premium. I need help to fix these problems?
Your sd card is not compatible.
what can i do
Try format it with panasonic formatter and reinstall WP7, but doubt that'll work.
In all, a sure way to get WP7 running is to buy a new sd card. People are saying sandisk class 2 cards work best with WP7 so I recommend those.
I have a question: a SanDisk 4GB Class 2 can work on wp7 hd2?
Yes, I have one and it works just fine. My everyday sd card, though is a 16 gig class 2 no reboot problems or sleep of death
If you look here:

you'll find massive lists of compatible sd cards
If I helped please hit the thanks button!
I have two. One was not recognised at all, the other one worked fine, although I only used it to set up an 8 gb card for dual booting, so not sure how it would have performed with WP7.
Thanks now i am going to flash my hd2 to wp7. I hope this works for me
