well im sure some of you have read post from this guy. about how he is able to read files from his eight gb sd card in is uni even tho it only says 2 gb on his device. has anyone else gotten one of these supposed magical cards and tried it out? i searched on ebay and it seems to be that only one guy has or sells this specific card . is nuclear advertising for this guy , is he a scammer or is this true and we dont know about it yet. please give input if you have gotten one of these cards and have tested it out.
Even all those 4GB SD-cards are already non-standard and not working in most of the devices. From 4GB upwards they have to be SDHC-cards (SD 2.0) which are not supported by the Universal's reader. Sure, it would be possible to manufacture 8GB SD-cards, but it's very unlikely that they work in a lot of devices since SD was never meant to have more than 2GB.

well i just saw today that a treo that was supposedly not able to support sdhc is now able to because of a firmware update. check engadgetmobile.com if that can be done with a treo why not the universal. if its a software problem im sure there are people in here that are able to help
Sorry about my long post but i am trying to give as much information as i can in one post.
I am requesting ROM builders to start firmware upgrades to support these 4GB and 8GB cards. Windows Crossbow doesnt support 4GB or 8GB SD only cards, instead it reads them and reformats them changing the firmware of the card to 2GB!!!!... I havent tried SDHC yet. Here are pictures of my 4GB Extreme III SanDisk SD only card. I couldnt upload it here so i zipped them and uploaded them to rapidshare. Helmi's AKU 3.5 ROM doesnt read a card formatted using Crossbow... i dont know its just too many details. I cant think. But I just want to let you guys know that you are right so far on your research. Keep the good work up!
http://rapidshare.com/files/8938902/sandisk_tech_support.zip
I emailed sandisk tech support these images. It seems they havent replied yet. Keep a track on all my threads as i keep posting about these cards everywhere.
Trust me its just because i have a lot of money that i am able to get my hands on these things. And i just keep posting my observations. I would even get my hands on the 32GB card if I could bribe the CEO of SanDisk.
It got reformatted to 2GB.. I am unable to make it 4GB again.
My 8GB card as you can see in pictures on ebay is a samsung make. Its also SD only. 8GB SDHC cards are available to be bought. They are a bit slower then normal SD cards and are cheaper too.
32GB cards will be coming soon in SD or SDHC i believe. I read it in news. Like its totally upto you to believe me or not, my information is very helpful to me but i still encounter problems and it seems not even sandisk can help me
Anyways so its a farse that Universal's SD card readers dont support SDHC. And you can file a lawsuit on SanDisk or Samsung for that. They just want you to spend more money into buying a SDHC card reader.... Truly its the ROM.
ok now i know u r full of shyt. u keep popsting that u have this card and it works but i have yet to see ne photos. u just like the attention u get from lieing through ur teeth. thats pretty sad
i dont know about the 8bg but my 4gb is working no probs,
doesnt matter if its empty, only used 900mb, or any amount in between empty or full, screen grab using SPB explorer of my current card status:
oh and to stop arguments there is no reason why nuclear couldnt download the demo of spb explorer then do a screen grab of his mem card section of memory just like i have in previous post!
so erm, as they say "get your cards out for the lads"
this is the card i got, dont know all the bull**** about this format that format, its slower etc, but this is quicker at loading tomtom sat nav up etc than my other card 1gb puremedia sd card, like i said 4gb, no problems http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail.asp?prod=SD_MOBYMEMORY_4096_001

Daddy k, what's your ROM version info? My 4GB card won't work at all in my Jasjar. I suspect a ROM upgrade will fix this, can you confirm it? Thanks! Cheers,

I have been using a MyFlash Turbo SD - 4 GB for quite some time. I use it for converted dvd movies, mp3, photos, programs, GPS maps. It is 90% full.
It works very well for me.
ROM: 1.30.77 WWE
Radio: 1.14.10
8GB SD cards work for some people and doesnt work for other people. The best i know it works in digital cameras.

I don't know that I come to the same conclusion after reading the thread in the link. It seems questionable at best since two of the posters specifically said it did not work for them.
SDHC compliant devices work with SDHC cards, SD devices do not.
You may be lucky to get one that you can read from, but an SD device will not write to it without screwing it up.
The Universal is SD not SDHC

Yo thats a SD card not a SDHC lol. in the email you said SDHD...now you say SDHC... lol
this is total bull, i have came to two conclusions after reading all these post.
1 -now it seems like the only person that sells this specific card that nuclear has is fastmemoryman and he is advertising for him. IF that is the case then i tell u guys not to deal with this scammer cause i bought from him before and was sent a 2 gb card disguised as a 4.
2- Nuclear does indead have a 8 gb card from samsung and is able to put his dvd in it but because sd 2.0 IS backward compatible as i have read it from several sites you are able to use only 4 gb of the 8. so he is putting his dvd in the card but only one movie,
those are the only two possible conclusion there is . so if its not number 1 then its number 2

Yup i think its #2 .... goddamn crossbow screwed up my 8GB card!... Alan knows it. Dont call me a scammer alright... first i am helping you and then you call me a scammer.
Don't bring me into this, I only know what you keep telling me, and what you post here.
I have no way of verifying what you say, one minute things work, one minute they don't, one minute you are developing a crossbow rom, the next you have one from another device.
It might be the language barrier, but half the time it sounds like you tell different stories from one thread to the next.

Lets see now... i think its the language barrier. You didnt learn your english good enough eh. Howcome i understand whatever you post but you dont understand anything that i post. So far there is only one person i know that understands everything i post. I dont even think Akula would understand what i posted. lol Alan ... i will clarify it again to you. my 8gb card got busted! it doesnt work anymore. crossbow screwed it up. i made crossbow by getting it off another device rom and modifying it! see can I be more clear than that?
HTC Incredible Wiki
feel free to update
I thought it was 32Gig micro SD card capable?
Yes, thanks I fixed it. also added the specs from the HTC page
Added Updates to wiki
Cool idea hope more people add to it over the time :0
6/2/2010 - Updated
Mods/Admins - Can we sticky this thread please
Added/edited a couple tidbits of info
Added information on swapping out PRL's to straight Verizon towers (for legacy alltel users, which happens to add "Verizon Wireless" to the pull down and lock screens) as well as information on swapping out PRL's to a hybrid Alltel first then Verizon towers. The hybrid is useful for people that live in the older Alltel areas that don't have great Verizon towers.
adb
What about adding an adb section to the wiki?
thank you so much for this! Free tethering ftw!
just to make sure, it is confirmed 32 GB on the SD card, because all of verizon says only 16?

32GB cards are usable, however the current firmware only recognizes the first 16GB. This should be fixed in the future, but if you want to load up your MicroSD card with 16GB+ of music, picture, videos, etc, you might not be able to do so as of now.
added getting better battery life via hidden menu. (may not not work for some)
thanks, was able to quickly find the battery life trick for my wife
The Wiki says...
Expansion Slot:
* microSD™ memory card (SD 2.0 compatible)
* Up to 32 GB card support. No pre-installed card.

That's not true anymore. All the new Incredible's in the green boxes come with a 2gb card pre-installed. The older ones should have come with a 2GB card in separate retail packaging, but they are pre-installed now. So they always came with a 2gb card.
Just a minor update to the wiki

Ok, I know I heard / read some information regarding users having wallpapers dissapear after the OTA update, however I thought I wasn't a victim, perhaps I was.
However, I have lost 1,000+ images (mostly a large group of wallpapers I had downloaded and hardly looked through) off of my SD card. In addition to wallpapers random pictures are missing that I had taken with my phone.
Mostly curious if anyone had similar experiences? If so, did you deduce they were OTA related, or a specific app? I really don't want this to happen again, so I am looking for any information to help solve this
I am running stock EVO not rooted, for what that is worth.
Thanks in advance!
Update - Apparently all my MP3s have gone missing off my SD card as well

Woww, this just started happening to me. I have not updated my EVO yet.
Is there a way to trace down what the devices does, like a log where it shows activities between the device and the SD Card.
Just curious if you're using the micro SD card that came with the EVO or a newly purchased one, if so please mention card.

I was using the one it came with, as a matter fact, I went to Newegg and purchased a new one 16GB Class 6. I already lost a lot of important pictures. I dont want to take more chances.

Mine is full rooted, not updated so far, with a A-DATA 16 GB Class 6 microSDHC Flash Memory Card and yesterday i lost the whole 100MEDIA directory so.....it seems to be a Evo issue
Could it be an internal issue in the Device? I dont think this has to do with the ROM/Update the device is running.
We need to escalate this as a crucial issue.
I am running [ROM]EVO-NonSense(AOSP Elements), rooted using Toast Method 2, Amon RA, with Calkulin Radio+WiMAX updates.
We should stay on top of this, I'd rather not have WTF moments or develop compulsions to constantly back up all files in some paranoid fashion..
I am using the stock SD card that came with my EVO, thankfully I was able to user some forensic programs and recover most of my images. I did narrow down the time frame of the deletions, however I was unable to determine If I had added any new apps to cause this issue.

What appl did you use?
I used Access Data FTK Imager and made an image of my SD card then from the image recovered what I could of deleted files, and pushed them back onto the SD card when finished.
Link - FTK Imager about half way down the page.
Does anyone have a backup copy of the files that was on the MicroSD card when they first received the phone? I zapped mine and need to get another copy.
Thank you!
actually, i pulled mine out almost immediately, but i can upload it for you. i just picked up mine yesterday to see how it does against my epic 4g.

THANK YOU! I was really stupid - I didn't listen to everyone's gripes about the G2 and returned my MT4G in favor of the G2... Needless to say, the hinge problem is my complaint too, so I'm getting the MT4G back tomorrow (same one) - BUT - before I handed it in I formatted the MicroSD card.
I had a copy of it stored on my hard drive here until late last night - I should never have gotten rid of it!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

something like a request for stock files should really have the files posted to the thread instead of PMed. It could potentially help a lot more people that way.

This may also may be people with different phones that want to try the Rock Band trial seeing as there are no videos or opinions of it online, and when you try an run the apk it tells you to insert the sd card bundled with the phone. Thanks for the upload.

they should be the same (fat32) even if you added a partition you should still be able to just put it in the mt4g without any problems
Hello guys, just bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500 from a technology store in Cyprus
I have a problem with the SD Card Socket, it doesn't click when i insert the sdcard and i have to drag it out to take it out, it won't click out either.
Using an 32GB Class 10 Verbatim MicroSDHC.
I've used the application SD Tools several times and when i "Start Speed Tests" the application freezes and i can't use the sd card in any other application, I don't know if any other guy has this issue.
If anyone knows anything please tell me how to fix this

If you just bought it and have such a problem... The better option might be to take it back on warranty and see what they have to say about the sd card slot. Since it is not clicking in properly, maybe some of the connectors are a bit out of line with the improper insertion.
Hell yeah, that's what warranty is for. Why pay to fix something that should be working out of the box...

checked your reply, thank you very much, the strange part is that i used a SanDisk 16GB Class 4 microSDHC card and it clicked perfectly, it even clicks-out too, and it works perfectly, i don't know what to think, i've put the two microsd cards next to each other and they have the same exact size, i don't know what is wrong ;/
