I have a Sprint CDMA HTC Hero, rooted. I currently use a 8gb SD card and was wondering if a SanDisk 16 GB Class 2 microSDHC Flash Memory Card would work in this phone?
If so, how do I go about switching the cards? I have all my apps currently installed on the SD card. A simple copy and paste everything to the new card, will that work? Thanks.
That's what im using, works great!

Well, first take the back of the phone off then you'll see the micro sd slot by your right thumb, gently push the sd card thats in there and it will come out. Then pull it out all the way, put the new one in in reverse order, but make sure its facing the same way as the other one.
To transfer the data, copy/paste the info onto the new card

Which ROM do you use?
Hello!
I'm planning to change my Xperia X8's SD Card.
I'm using Racht's custom rom, 2.2.1 CM Floyo v0.20, also found in XDA forums.
Of course, this offers the use of apps2SD.
Would it be ok if I just copy-paste the contents of my old SD Card to my new one?
Would I still be able to use (without any problems) the apps I transferred to my SD card from the phone storage?
In other words, will all my files (apps2SD transferred files also) in the old SD card still work if I just copy-paste them to the new SD Card?
Very sorry if my explanation is complicated.
Thanks!
Yes it should be fine.
How did the change of SD Card go?
Im about to do the same thing and was wondering i its possible to copy all contet from current SD Card to my PC and then copy it to the new SD Card.

Sorry for the late reply.
I haven't really changed it yet due to my busy schedule. Hopefully, I would be able to find time.
I'll keep you updated!
As long as you did not partition the sd card with extended file system or any other fs that only linux can detect, there should not be a problem.

If you have partitioned your old SD card with ext3 partition you can use any Linux live CD to simply copy/paste to your new card
superuser_
is mandatory to have two partitions with the same floyo0, 25. a standard card does not work like a normal android 2.2. roms or they also use the second partition as root and do the first time and we have to install link2sd to transfer apps to the memory card.
multiboot option
if u haven't already changed sd cards try to get a class 6 sd card as there have been multiboot options released, cm6 on phone memory and cm7 on sd card. check out multiboot thread on x8 development. two roms on one phone, its all gravy my friend.

how about a class 10 card? will it work on x8?
i think it will ok.
I changed from an 8 GB card to a 16. No problem at all. But my card doesn't support Multiboot. If you get a class 6 or higher you should be fine. You just need to copy a few files from the old card and it works fine.
I have just copied and pasted everything from one card to another, and it worked. It is great that now with rachts and doixhan's roms we have the support for app2sd!
Do you know if there is any way to test the speed of the SD directly from the phone? Thank you in advice!
I also am about to change out my SD card. I just upgraded from the stock 8gb card that I had partitioned which I did through ROM Manager to a brand new 16gb Class 10 SDcard
Is it also as simple as copying and pasting from my old SD card contents to the new one and boot it back up? Or would this delete the old ROM and stock ROM off of my SD card? I also wanted to know if I needed to partition this new card as well and if so, at what point do I do that?
I know this is probably really easy but I am new to flashing ROMS which is why I wanted to get a bigger and faster card! Thanks!

I thought the lower number of class like class two was faster than say a class ten? I've been wondering this and saw this post. What do you guys think is faster?
Class 2 or 10?

The class 10 is faster and more expensive......
hi, im a phone newbie first off. I just bought a 32gb sd card to replace the 8gb HTC gave me.
Do i just copy and paste all the files on the 8gb to the fresh 32gb?
And do i need to format the 32gb sd card...or make any new files?
Thanks alot.
Hey there, I'm doing the exact same thing at the moment!
I checked and both the 8GB card and the new 32GB are partitioned with FAT32. I'm copying over exactly what was on my old one onto the new one as I'm writing and I'm expecting it to work.
I'll report back in a few minutes with a confirmation.
UPDATE:
I've successfully copied over the contents from one micro SD card to the other and can confirm that everything works fine! No special formatting needs to be done either. Transfer your data away and you should be good to go!

The one that came with the phone was a class 4 and the new 32GB I'm now using is a class 10. Works just fine on CM7 as well as on Virtuous Quattro
That's good to know. Waiting for my new sd card to come.
I am sure this has been covered before but I finally made a boot SD for CM7 and while it works pretty good I want to try a class 4 sandisk SD card to see if its any faster. My question is can I just copy everything from my card now to the new card and insert it in my Nook?

Not using windows explorer. But you can get the free program win32diskimager. It can read your card and write the image to your PC. Then you can write it to your new card.

uSD Card Size
Hi,
I notice a lot of Rom images say will will work in a 4GB card.
Is there any problems using a larger card, like 8GB?
Thanks.
Everett1954
Yep. Use above method to put your image file on anything up to 32gig card; be sure you are using Sandisk brand, though. Small block read/write speed makes this the Nookers choice.
I just migrated from an 8gb to 16gb Sandisk card last night. I used win32diskimager to make an image of the 8gb card and then wrote that to the 16gb card. I then had to use a combination of Linux GParted and EASEUS partition manager to modify the partition sizes. I wanted to make more space available for apps instead of the 1GB (I upped it to 2GB), and expanded the CM7 partition to fill the remainder of the drive. I booted from the new card and everything seems to be working fine.
I have bought Sandisk microSDXC 64GB class 10 UHS1. When I put it in my computer using USB2.0 Kingston Mobile Reader it could not recognise it. I removed it and I placed it in my Galaxy Note. I went into clockworkmod 6.19 (Non Touch) and I partitioned the card with 2GB or 4GB (I do not remember exactly!!!) and Swap size 256k. When my phone restarted, the phone did not recognize the card. Therefore, I went through the internet to find a solution. I found the program "EaseUS Partition Master 9.1.1 Home Edition" and reformatted the card with FAT32 and cluster size 32KB. When it finally finished, it gave me the size 27.46GB!! I reformatted through SD Formatter 3.0 hoping that the partition used through Clockworkmod messed up the actual size of the card. I successfully re-formatted the card, however the size remained the same. I know that the size of a microSDHC card 32GB is around 29GB, therefore it does not explain size 27.46GB.
My question now, if there is an answer!!! Is the card faulty or did Clockworkmod messed with the card?
Please advise if possible!
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, because I think this a very strange story!

I think that the CWM messed up with the SD partition. Try to format in Windows ad tell me the results.
if I'm correct 32gb is the max for the n7000. Note II does up to 64gb
Nope. I have the same card and it shows me all of the space(about 59gb) and i juat put it in the phone.

Could be the reason OR the Card Reader may not be compatible with SDXC...
I got a Transcent dual (micro and standard Card reader) which works fine while some others incompatible.
Once he got the good card reader, he should try to format first the SDXC as exFat (on Windows 7) to be sure he got 64GB, then to get it work on the G-Note is another story...
I had to copy some files (any kind) on the card, then when plugged on the G-Note, the system detect an issue and propose to format the card (watch carefully at the messages)... When done, all is good !

Thank you for your answers! I have no solution, but I sent the card for a replacement and Im getting a Sandisk USB 3.0 Reader, so as soon as check I will inform with the results!
