Anyone had any issues with Kingston memory? Specifically 2mb?
Or, would Sandisk be the best make?
I had a 1GB Kingston MicroSD and every time i opened my picture&Videos and into the SD card my TyNT Freezes and a softrest is a must....
Now i have a SD Micro and i have not had this problem YET (Crossing-Fingers)
There are now SDHC cards of 8 GB.
Universal does not support SDHC cards.
BUT... there are many adapters that transform SDHC card into a SD card.
Those are cards of SD size. You insert SDHC cards into them.
Did someone try to use 8 GB sdhc cards on Universal with such an adapter?

I read somewhere in the Qtek Manual that the MAXIMUM Storage Card size the Universal will support is 6GB. I am unsure what will happen if you squeeze an 8GB card into it. Maybe it would:
1. Not detect any card at all
or
2. Will only indicate a 6GB card, despite the fact that you plugged an 8GB one
Whatever the case, I am pretty sure that there is an OS workaround to this issue (if it really is an issue). Maybe WM6 has already addressed this limitation, you never know. Maybe all that you need to do is format the Storage Card to a FAT32 media format, instead of the default FAT16 most cards come in.
Given that SDHC cards are the same size as SD cards, how exactly would it fit into an adapter, and then into the uni?!?!?
There are mini SDHC cards which fit the 2.0 standard but with such adapter I think you'll just get a normal SDHC card..

Yes I am interested in this as well, how can a card that is the same size as the convertor card fit!!!
I have a 4 GB SDHC card (DANE-ELEC) that I bought from Expansys and it works in nothing, no computers, cameras PDA or anything......... What are they supposed to work in?
And if there is and adapter that works please provide a link!!!!

This is always the problem with new technologies in which the Buyer Beware principle applies. The SDHC cards are out there, but the readers for those cards are not yet as pervasive and mainstream as the previous generation ones.
This is a critical flaw in the SDHC technological evolution. They basically produced a half-solution (for me its a half-assed solution) which should have never been implemented. Here is the half-assed solution:
- SDHC readers are backwards compatible and can read traditional SD as well as SDHC cards.
- SDHC cards ARE NOT backwards compatibe with traditional SD readers and will only wrk with SDHC readers.
It is the above problem that has got consumers at large, you included, absolutely furious for not making things clearer. So - if you are an SDHC card holder, and are desperate to use it, well .... there is no choice for you to wait for the SDHC readers to be present in the devices you wish to use SDHC cards in.

How support for Universal ?
Guys, received a review sample of a Transcend 8GB SDHC card today and it doesn't work. The Universal just won't detect a Storage Card.
The same goes for ALL other Windows Mobile devices with SD slot at this moment.
Even readers must be special SDHC ones. I have one of those and the PC can work with the card.
This is not going to help, but I have a Transcend 4GB SDHC card, and it's hopeless too, doesn't work in the Universal.

For that you'll need Transcend's NORMAL 4GB SD card. They have a regular one and a 150x (access speed) one.
I have the latter and it works great for almost a year now.
great~~~~ i like this~
RE
Yes, TRANSCEND 4GB SD card 150x works great on my set too
Pretec 133x Cheetah 4 GB card works on my Universal, too:
http://www.dealtime.co.uk/xPF-Pretec-SHM04G
I was using it in my MDA Compact (HTC Magician) and it was working ok, too. I had to use cNET Flash format to access 4GB, though.
It would be cool if anyone could come up with a solution that would enable the Universal to read SDHC cards. I'm sure a new driver would solve this as the hardware is exactly the same.

what if you use a micro to SD adaptor with an 8 gig micro SD??
anyone ever try this?
my buddies 2 gig works in the adaptor.

Must reiterate this point... I have one too, and it works great, no problems at all, and fast!
Hopefully this page will answer these neverending SDHC questions... "the SD 2.0 standard in SDHC uses a different memory addressing method (sector addressing vs byte addressing[9]). 4GB SDHC cards can only work with SDHC compatible host devices."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital_card (Scroll down to SDHC).
As far as I can tell, SDHC requires different HARDWARE to run, think it's down to the motherboard level and maybe even the slot itself.
yeah, interestingly my buddies 2 gig micro sd card is sdhc.
and it worked.. i don't actually know if there are 8 gig micro sd.. and MAN those cards are small!

What brand of micro SDHC card are you using?
It's San Disk
Please help...
I bought a Shadow from Ebay with this condition :
1. Device Locked => Solved with Hard Reset
2. Locked to T-mobile => Solved with SDA Unlocked
Now I have another problem, my shadow not detected my micro sd.
the micro sd is from my other phone and try to insert to my shadow.
what is the problem? how to solve it?
please help....thanks
I believe the HTC Shadow can only read normal SD cards not HDSD (i think thats it) the high capacity micro SD cards arent supported.
The Shadow works with SD cards upto 8GB. If your Shadow is not recognizing SD cards, the SD card slot is more than likely broken.

no i use sdhc class 4 all seems fine
8-GB HD works in mine...
I have a "Transcend" 8gb Micro SD (I'm almost positive it's HD) that works fine in both my Shadows. I've a 16gb but it's in use as a Virtual-Machine drive in my laptop. When I can I'll try it out for the heck of it.
Of note- my 2gb non HD does NOT work in either. Weird. Works in the PC though.
Standard formatting and all that....
Hi I need more space for my duo 11 and the cheapest way i believe is to buy a micro sd card to increase the size(Don't know if i can swap my hard drive from 128gb to 256gb). I spotted this micro sd card which is pretty good but don't know if i can utilise it to its maximum speed. The card is "Samsung UHS-1 Class10 PRO Micro SD XC 64GB Memory Card", I know duo 11 supports SD XC but it also needs to support UHS-1 for it to use it up to its maximum speed.
On a side note it says
-Read Speed: Up to 70MB/s
-Write Speed: Up to 20MB/s
Does take mean if i transfer files out of the sd card it can go up to 70mb/s and if i want to transfer files from my hard drive to the sd card the transfer speed would be 20mb/s??
Thanks in advance!
That would be the correct speeds assuming all is perfect and no overhead.
You also need to verify that the reader in the Sony is not connected through USB 2.0 or you wouldn't see 70MB/sec reads, more along the lines of 30-35MB/sec.
The duo uses sd cards not microsd. You can use a microsd card with an adapter but a sd card will be cheaper.
I have a 256gb sd card in mine and it works but it's not particularly fast.

That would be the limiting factor as far as the SD card is concerned yes. Operating system overhead would slightly reduce that. Also there would be a limiting factor in what the hard drive read and write speeds are or memory stick or whatever it is the files are being transferred to and from.
As the title implies: Has anybody tried sd cards beyond 128gb on this phone and did it work?
bump
Since the question hasn't been answered yet...
and maybe nobody try to use beyond the 64Gb nor the 128Gb (yet).. I use only 16Gb of external memory in this MiA1
I've tried it, SDXC card from SanDisk. Works just fine.
I use 200 gb Sandisk (fat32 formatted) memory card, works well.
