Switching SD cards between Galaxy tab and I9000 - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have 8Gb sd card in my galaxy tab and 16Gb in my I9000. I want to switch them so that i can copy my tab apps in the 16Gb and my I9000 apps in the 8Gb card.
What is the best way to do it?
Thanks in advance.

Copy the 8 to a pc, copy the 16 to a pc, switch cards in phones, format them in the new phone, copy the stuff from the pc to the cards.

[Q] How big of an SD card can I use on the Hero?

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

You should partition your sdcard through CWM. After that, you have to move apps to sdcard.
Also, make sure you have higher class sd card, otherwise it may lag.
U can also use link 2 SD app to link apps to SD
Yo can also create partition using mini tool partition wizard...
Or u can also use s2e on custom rom..

WOW. So Galaxy mini supports 32GB sd cards?
I went to a store and asked for a 8GB sd card but they said that the phone doesnt support it and it will not work. Maximum was 4GB they said.
Damn, I should go and buy a 8GB sd card. But why would you need a 32GB SDCard for Galaxy Mini. It will make your phone so laggy and it will take years to 'Media Scan" to complete.
Cheers anyways.

Help with MicroSD card.

ok, so my microsd card is a samsung 64gb hc/hx? Computer says HX, microsd card says HC... class 10.
I've been putting music on it etc, then when reboot my phone, it like restores to an older stage, files will delete themselves, folders i deleted reappear and the new music is gone etc.. I do it again, same thing happens. Its extremely frustrating.
I notice ill put an apk on there, the icon changes, and it wont open the apk also.
Ive formatted my sd card on both computer and on the phone but the problem remains...
Here an image of a zip when trying to open, it was recently put on the sd and opened fine before rebooting.

Same problem here. Any solution?
Are you doing this from the phone? Are you on KK?
If so you need to Google "third party write to sd card restrictions on KitKat "
The solution is to root and apply the write to sd card fix

Root and fix done. The same thing happens if I copy files from pc to micro sd. When I put micro sd in the phone, directory and files above 8/10gb disappear.
You have a broken or dodgy sd card then.
I bought a 64 gig card of eBay write cheap but it was really a 4 gig card formatted to look like a 64 gig one...

Sd card issue

Hello everyone,
I got my phone yesterday. When I inserted the SD card in the phone, it showed me that the SD card is not supported & it asked me to format the card as an internal storage. It's a Samsung Evo Plus 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10 memory card. Is this a problem with the phone or the memory card ? The memory card was working perfectly fine until yesterday evening in my Moto G5 Plus.
I'm on the lest version of software i.e. Android 8.1 with April 2018 security patch.
Please advise...
sorry, but can you provide a screenshot of the storage settings page? might be helpful for my own case, thanks!

I did not take a screenshot and now temporarily I am using a different memory card
What was the file system format? exfat,ntfs, fat32
I had the same ask for format the sd card!
I use an Samsung Evo plus 128 Go, in ExFat file format on my previous phone (zenfone 3 ze552kl), and when i install it on my Nokia 7 plus i just have to format in fat32, now it works well!
I just save all my data on my computer before format

I also did the same. But the memory card did not take data more than 30 GB in it. I had my previous data of 37 GB, but out of that only 30 GB got copied back in the card. Also now when I try to format the SD card, it shows the device is write protected.
Have you try to format it with a computer?
Maybe your card is counterfeit sd card, (one of my friend buy a samsug 32 go, but he received a 2 go sd card..), you can check your card capacity on computer with H2testw, it's freeware you can easily download. I only find french links, so you can google it
Software is in english and german.

Yes, I tried it using a PC only. The memory is a genuine Samsung memory card. Been using it for a year in my previous Moto phone.
