[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

I had that happen to me with the 8GB SDcard I had in my previous phoneand it rendered it completely useless. I replaced it with the 8GB SD card that shipped with the phone and haven't had any issues since then.

[Q] Maximum size of ext sd card for Samsung Galaxy Note

Hi to all friends,
I have been using samsung galaxy note since past few weeks. I had always thought that the maximum size of ext sd card supported is only upto 32GB however I could see users who seem to use 64GB ext sd cards on their phones....Is it possible or any software needed to be installed so that the phone recognizes it?.... Thank for reading my message....
Just make sure it's formatted as Fat32 and not exFAT. WORKS GREAT!

Using a 64gb card in my phone at the moment. When I first purchased it I used a program called " H2testw 1.4 " just to check if it was genuine. This program fills the card with data then reads it back. If it fails it will tell you so you can return it.
Have had no problems with the card. Just remember to format it in the phone.

64 gb sandisk works!
I can confirm that sandisk 64gb xc card works great, pop it in your phone and format it in settings-storage format sd card and thats it ready to use.
Cool...I'm using a 16gb one right now cause it was really cheap...if I have the money by the end of july i'll purchase a 64gb one and sell this one to a friend

Galaxy Note 4 SM910T 4.4.4- Not Recognizing SD Card

Just purchased a used Tmobile Samsung Note 4 SM910T (upgrading from a Tmobile Note 3).
First thing I did was reset the phone to factory defaults with 4.4.4 and got it running. Everything seemed to work fine, programmed the finger print scanner (a nice feature), installed some apps. Seems to work like it's supposed to. Now, time to get the SD Card switched over.
Pulling the SD Card, (Sandisk Extreme 32gb (HC I) MicroSD) from the Note 3 and putting it into the Note 4, the SD Card was not recognized. So I put is back into the Note 3 to make sure there wasn't a problem, everything showed up fine, all files and pics where still there.
So I pulled the battery, thinking the card had to be in the slot upon boot up, I inserted the SD card and powered up the phone again. Still nothing, no SD Card detected. Humm...
I had an old 8gb Sandisk card laying around, popped it into my PC to see what was on it, had some files on there so I tried putting that SD Card into my new Note 4, nothing. Not recognized. I put the old card into my Note 3, shows up fine.
When I go into "Storage" and scroll down to the bottom, "Mount SD Card" Insert SD Card" are showing, but not the normal "Total Space" "Available Space" "Unmount SD Card" and "Format SD Card" even though the SD Card is inserted correctly into the SD Card slot of the phone. I again tested that SD card in my old Note 3, still shows up fine.
I have tried reformating the 32 gb SD card on my PC, trying all 3 options NTFS, FAT32 and exFAT. I even formated in the Note 3. None of those work, I get the same result. The Note 4 does NOT recognize an SD Card at all.
Bad Hardware?
Please help. Thank you
I would suggest installing the SD and trying to see if booting up on a custom recovery you are able to see it. If in fact you can then it might be an error with the ROM and you might need to re-flash it or move to another one. I suggest TWRP since it is the one up to date and has a built in File Manager.

Thanks for the suggestion. I just tried doing a hard reboot (HOME/VOL UP/POWER) buttons,
clicked on "apply update from external storage" and got a response
"E: failed to mount /sdcard (no such file or directory) (in red)
if it is new phone and both cards are not recognized then looks like hardware problem. I would try sd card from different manufacturer than sandisk and if there are no positive results replace it under warranty.

Lol he received the marshmallow update 6.0!!!
Do not use Sandisk brand SD cards in the Note 4. They have widespread issues. Go buy a Samsung EVO and it will work.
