Has anybody tested 256gb sd cards? - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

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.

iMate Jas-Jar 2GB SD Card

I was looking to buy a memory card for my jas-jar and was surprised by this page on Kingston's site which says that it only supports 1GB maximum memory. Does anyone have a 2GB card here, anyone used it with their universal?
Kingston
I am using a 2Gb card no problems at all
could you tell me the company and other details of the SD card model etc?
I have a 150X 2GB ADATA SD CARD and works perfectly!! installed in an i-mate JASJAR. I bought it on ebay.
Same here, I am using a 2GB Sandisk Ultra (Black color) and no problems.
I'm Using 2GB Kingston ultimate X120 with no problem at all
Mine is 1 120x "hyper speed", "MAGU" brand card - works fine
I've read it working with a 4GB card also, worth googling to make sure.
Think I'll make that my next card if so, end of Jan.
On that point, it's ridiculous to think that my first hard drive was a massive 40MEGABYTE one in a 386 Amstrad.... here we are with something a hundred times that, the size of a postage stamp.
Madness, but GOOD madness....
My first SD card is a transcend 4GB card but I encountered problems with it. I can store and run applications normally on the 4GB card, but the camera application can't use the card as a means of storage. Thus off it went back for return. I bought the San Disk 2GB Ultra instead and never had any problems.
I can also confirm a working 2GB Ridata 150x SD working ok on my jasjar.
Had to reformat it on a pc the first time, tough, because straigth from the packaging, i only read 1gb capacity in the jasjar.
After formating, all's well!
Still, i didn't saw almost any speed increase...
I know that the device itself probably doesnt get to the top speed of the card, but...
Anyone else could post their toughts on what (if any) speed increases they had on their devices, as well as the cards brands and sizes?
4gb
mine's working fine with a 4gb transmedia card

Kingston memory.

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)

8 GB on Universal

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!

Hello everyone,

MMC card working
Hi,
I have A-Data 4GB Turbo MMCplus 200x card working in my Qtek9000, WM5/6!
So a 4gb SD works on the Universal?
Yep, I've got a 4gb sd card in my Universal and it works fine. As I understand it 4gb is the maximum.
I'm looking for 4 Gb miniSD/SD
But all the cards I see are the new SDHC class 2/6 sd2.0
I was under the impression that those won't work well/at all in the uni because it only supports sd1.1
SDHC will not work. However there are 4GB SD cards, probally the wrong side of the world for you, but here is where I bought my 4GB card.

Maximum memory card?

Whats the maxmum supported memory card in a prophet? i have an orange SPV M600 and it won't read the 4GB card i have bought.
AFAIK some 4gb card are supported, maybe it depends on brand. Heard that apacer cards are ok.
Using a 2gb card so can't really test it
It does not depend on brand.
Some 4GB cards are SDHC (High Capacity). This format is not supported. Regular 4GB card should work.
ok thanks for that... didn't know myself....
2GB sd card doesnt work
