What size microSD cards ? - HTC Wings

Hi all.
Just want to see what everyone is using as in size and revision.
Why i ask is HTC said ( to me anyway ) that it only takes up to 2GB microSD. On the other hand iv read on other pages they can take the microSDHC cards as well and larger than 2GB so some feedback will be cool before i go spend cash.
Thanks ahead

What is microSDHC?
How is it different from normal microSD

I've just bought a 4gb microsdhc card for my s730 and it's perfectly working.
(microsdhc is the new version of the microsdhc card which allow capacity over 2gb)

My 2 GB card (Sandisk Ultra II) is that fast...
write 760.68 kB/s
read 1976.20 kB/s
Hows your SDHC? (Use SKTools for benchmark)

yeap
yeap the microSDHC is a newer version of the microSD card. bigger capacity, also refered to as Rev 2 microSD.
Cool, looks like ill go for a 4GB microSDHC card
thanks...

I have a 6Gb one in mine works fine was £36.99 from PLAY.com, free delivery + Quidco points

I'm using the 8 GB från SanDisk, and it works just fine.

I have a 6gb sdhc works without a problem.
The phone should take up to 8gb and maybe 10 before it will need a firmware update to read it.
HTC probably has only tested a 2gb.

4GB SanDisk from play.com, £17.99
Pack included a microSD>full size SD adaptor* AND USB adapter for PC!
* not micro>mini>SD as with some cards

Just thought I'd add that I purchased an 8Gigabyte ScanDisk Card (with USB adapter) for just over £50 (GBP) - $100 (US) and it work like a dream - no access delay and just under 8GB of available space.
I've also heard that ScanDisk are due to release a 16GB version in early 2008?

Hey,
did you need any software update in order make an 8GB card running on XDA STAR. I'm just coming from an O2 store and they gave me an extract of a spreadsheet were they listed the xda star under 2GB max. storage devices.
Any comments?
Cheers,

I bought the SanDisk Card, just pop it in and everything is set.

It didn't work in my HTC Touch Dual!

How can that be?

eh? that's worrying, I've an 8gb one coming this week!
8GB Sandisk working perfectly in my Uk T-Mobile Touch Plus. No issues seen at all with it.
Well... My problem here is... Is it the Flash Card that is ****ed up or is it that I have the only Touch Dual in the whole world that doesn't have the capabillity to read 8gb Micro SDHC cards.
I have used a storage tool program to figure out the cards specs(Computer can't read it through the SD adaptor for some reason) and here is what i got:
Total: 1.8 GB
Type: Fat16
Sector Size: 512 Bytes
Cluster Size: 32 KB
For what I know, this should be a Fat32 because Fat16 can't have storage space beyond 2 GB.The rest I don't know because I haven't researched this enough to get a science degree. I have tried to format the card to Fat32 with several Cluster Sizes with no result in getting a bigger storage space.
At some point this seems like a 2GB but on the outside it looks clearly like an 8GB card. So if this is a fake, then it is a pretty damn good one.
What do you think?
slight aside, but madly, i have to pick the card up from the post office depot - how BIG can that parcel be??!!
I've been using an 8GB Sandisk card in my Niki (borrowed from my Kaiser) for a week now. Works fine ...
yup, finally got mine, and no issues!

You have to format the card at FAT32, which goes at 32 Gb. With FAT16 you only see 2Gb.
I don't know if you can do this format in the HTC, otherwise you'll need a new reader for sdhc-cards.
Thank You... I got a New SDHC reader/writer and formatted the card with the Panasonic SDformatter from a link through this forum. It worked and I now have my delicious 8GB storage in my Touch Dual.
Never seen such beautiful 8GB in my life
8Gb works in mine as well
Hows the speed when accessing aps on the 8 gig? is it just as fast as using a 1 gig?
in light of this topic, could you guys suggest anything for this:

Oh well no answers, anyway, my 8gb is here and is working very well
Oddly enough, I'm having problems even with 1 and 2 gig cards. Or rather with active sync, not detecting them. I can't transfer files directly to storage card folder via activesync, I have to either transfer to the device first and then from the device to the card, or transfer directly to the card after taking it out of the nike..
It might be something simple, anybody has any ideas how to solve this? Searched for quite a long time and couldn't find anything..
It's an orange brand niki if that changes anything, btw.
well if any 1 wants to save i found a 8 gig for 37.99 plus shipping

8GB Adata SDHC Card

I'm presently running Toflock WM6 and wanted to install the biggest possible SD card so I can put TT6 UK & Europe plus tons of other stuff without swapping cards.
I was advised in the Hima forum that there were SDHC patches which would enable SDHC. So based on this advice I just bought an Adata 8GB card.
I've tried several patches and nothing works, even the non-HC cards stop working and I have to re-install the Extrom prog to bring it back
So has anyone managed to get a class 6 SHDC card running yet ? If so with what rom etc.
Thanks
i am sorry to tell u this but SDHC is not possible on any Hima YET !!..i released 2 or maybe 3 Patches my self but none of them work...users cant even run 4GB and u bought 8GB..hope its refundable
Okay, I'll just have to keep an eye out for threads about SDHC updates.
In the meantime the Adata 8GB SDHC card will have to serve as a healthy sized flash drive to swap movies / mp3s with friends/family etc.
I've noticed 'non-SDHC' 4gb 50x speed cards on ebay. Has anyone got positive experience of slower speed 4GB cards like this??

Forget it.
Decent 4 GB SD cards from well known manufacturers cost approx. 20 €/$
There is no need for this cheap crap.

It's a Transcend card
I've got an A-Data 4-Gb, pink stiker (it says: myflash, 150x turbo SD 4gb Adata) and it's working well (sure not at 150x, maybe 1x ). To be fair, I have tryed several ones diferent sizes and the bigger they are slower they work, not only on the PDA but in the PC as well.
Have you testet read/write access to the whole 4gb? As far as I know, you can use these cards, but you have no access beyond 2gb.
4GB CARD
I am working with Transcend 4GB Card and the speed is great , No problem at all.
I also use a Transcend 4GB SD and it works great. You can access the full 4Gb. I watch many tv series in my himalaya with tcpmp.
As I said full access to the 4Gb card. I used to travel with my 100Gb 2,5 USB HD, some times I thinks it's a shame there is no app to get acess to it through a kind o USB cable, wuold you imagine?

Memory card advice wanted

Hi,
I've just received my TyTn II and am interested in getting a memory card for it.
It takes Micro SD but what is the max size that it/WM6 will work with?
Also, what is Micro SDHC? and can I use it?
I've seen a 2GB MicroSD card for £7.55 del. but I probably want a bigger card.
I intend using it for tomtom - photos - some games and apps and of course data file storage.
TIA
Bryan
I picked up a SanDisk 8GB via Amazon for under $70 USD (minus shipping).

Thanks for the quick replies,
As you are using 8GB cards they must be MicroSDHC? AFAIK MicroSD cards that hold 4GB or greater are all MicroSDHC.
Any chance you can pop your card and see?
The 8Gb SanDisk that I ordered is MicroSDHC (a.k.a. 2.0).
The HC stands for High Capacity and it is indeed for cards above 4 GB.
The device for the memory card has to be HC capable and lucky for us, our Kaiser is
Every micro sd card also has a class (2, 4 or 6 I believe). The higher the number, the better transfer rates (and response time), but also the bigger the cost.
I currently have a 6 GB (class 4) micro SD card. I'm going to wait a while to buy a new one until cards with about 16 GB or 32 GB (or something like that) of memory come around.
I'm also running the sandisk 8gb SDHC card. Its speedy and
works flawlessly. I got it on amazon for about 80 USD
The only thing i could recommend after having a card this big
is a good card exporting program on your phone so not
limited by activesync
Thanks for the help.
The 2GB MicroSD card at £7.55 seems very good value but I'll wait for an 8GB MicroSDHC deal to come along.
Hopefully a faster variant too..
Is it possible to connect the phone to a PC and have it recognised as a large memory stick? I know some phones do and then you can just explore them like a disc drive.
I will setup activesync at home for normal installation etc. but wondered if I could access the SD card whilst in phone from the PC/USB a la memory stick whilst at work.
yes, you can access the SD card like it's a memory stick by exploring. However, the transfer rate isn't as good as a USB connection with a stick. The 8GB SanDisk comes with a USB reader so that the card can actually be used in the reader just like a stick. Fastest transfer rate I've ever gotten with my phone
I'm using an 8Gb SanDisk MicroSDHC.
Works great!
I have a 8gb and it is fine.. but if you wait until next month you can pick up a 12gb and really have some storage space.

Talk about a deal i just purchased two 8gb for $70 because they were used and only came with one adapter.
I got my 8 gb sandisk sdhc card on ebay - another place to look for a great deal. Just be careful about the track record of the seller. I love the 8 gb card, but will be looking for a 16 gb card when they come out.
i saw the 16GB ones out anyone tried if it will work with the kaiser???
I run a Kingston 8GB SDHC in mine without problems (brought it over from my SDHC enabled Orbit), which I bought for £25 about 8 months ago from mobymemory. Never had any problems with it at all.

Which size (GB) of SD-Cards fit in the Kaiser?

Hello,
i want to buy a bigger SD-Card for my Kaiser but which Size is the biggest that would work in the Phone?
4, 8, 16, 32GB or more???
Which Size are you using???
Thanks for the answers
Mrxdaking
32gb sdhc card is the max you can use.
I'm using a 16Gb.
SanDisk 16 gb, and works perfect.
I'm running a Kingston 16GB SDHC card, so far so good, however I am noticing some problems with Audio Manager with some albums.
Am just putting the music back on, to check if its not just a problem with the original transfers, but it shouldn't be.
Will keep you posted.
Avoid Sandisk 6 GB if you can
I'm using Sandisk 16 GB now and it's working fine. I used to have a Sandisk 6 GB in the same device and that was problematic and kept loosing files 3 times over a period of months so I'd personally avoid a 6 GB card in a TyTN II!
Agree with the above--16GB no problem. I wouldn't even bother with 32GB, they are sooo expensive and so easy to lose
I use an 8 GB sandisk since almost a year and a half and it just works perfectly, never faced any trouble using it
Let's all repeat each other..
I use an 8 GB sandisk and have no problems, also I use an 8 GB sandisk and have also had no problems.
its like deja vu all over again
btw: Did any of you ever notice a different speed with different classes?
e.g. is class4 faster (feeling) than class2 aso.?
I personally can't see any speed drop from 8gb class4 to 16gb class2
I got SanDisk 16gb class 4 in my Kaiser, and it works excellent.
hello,
i have bought 2 16GB (sandisk class 2) micro sd card for my kaisers.
i have 3. 2 htc 1 vodavone.
the 2 htc only see 1 GB
the vodavone kaiser doesn't sees the sd al all.. is there a tweak for the large sdhc or is it something else?
anyone an idea why my kaiser and touch only see less than 1GB of an 16GB microsd?
