Yeah, I've just see it when looking on google. Shame I only recently (well 4 months ago) bought a 2GB card. I can donate it to someone but I don't think I'll part with it yet.
I thought the Wizard required some sort of not yet available firmware upgrade before it could go beyond 2GB miniSD cards.
In fact, this link from SanDisk makes it sound as though our phones will never be able to use these cards:

Again Maybe this is a firmware limatation
Maybe...
Maybe it would work by splitting the 4Gb into two logical disk 2Gb each?
By the way I don't know what to load to 2Gb, I have about 1,3 Gb free space in my miniSD. I mean is it so needed the 4Gb card? Any suggestions?
4 GB Mini SD
Well storage space I can always use. My Tom Tom map of Western Europe already takes away 1Gb. Some movies converted to divx take about 600Mb the rest is used for backups and cab files of the programs I use on my device. So 4Gb of storage would be a very nice option. Doesn't matter if this has to be split in two partitions of 2Gb each. I would love it
Nico
As far as I can tell, there are no REAL 4GB MINI SD's. They all seem to be fake... 2GB SD made to look like 4GB... Buyer beware!

4g miniSD that works
I have purchased a 4G miniSD from http://www.emartbuy.co.uk/index.php.
It works. There is a small problem with access time, i.e. it takes longer to write to and access the card than the 2G did, but apart from that there are no issues.
All I did was use a card reader and copy everything from the 2G card to the 4G card, put it in the device and away it went, like nothing had changed. Except now there is twice the storage. YAY. The card is brandless and is probably a reflashed card, but I don't care because it works for me.
Hey if any of you are doubting the 4gb mini sd at mobymemory I can confirm it certainly is 4gb card and definetly works in the wizard.
This isn't a reply to your asking if it works. The listed price here was $78 (USD) roughly if i'm not mistaken. I'm sorry, but i'm not paying $78. I already paid $55 for mine and am just awaiting it's arrival in the mail. Hopefully I'll get it soon so I can pop that sucker in and flash my firmware till i see it. I want 4gb because I love movies on the go, and I have some nice tools that do about 4mb/min of video, now that's 1000 minutes of video... or if you load 2 hour movies: roughly 7 movies. At 320x240 stereo mp4 44100khz. Now to just find a bloody adapter for being able to pick up phone calls with my own earbuds, and now to find good earbuds...
I got my 4gb in the mail today! It's completely unmarked which I thought was weird, and upon first popping it in, my MDA would NOT read it, however, after popping it in my computer and reformatting it into FAT32 again (it was FAT32 when i checked it with the computer), it works just fine. Reads out fully too! I got mine on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=200065103874
$54.95 including shipping (which was 2 days by usps mail).
Transcend 4GB mini SDHC Flash Card does not work on 8125
I purchased one from Newegg.com. 8125 did not recogonize the card, neither my computer card reader.
Any thoughts?

Have you checked to see if you can Rightclick the "removable drive" the card is in on your computer and see if you have the option "Format"? I had to format my card before it was usable in my MDA and computer.

You may need to update the firmware on your card reader.
Guys
4GB miniSD cards are fake products. Real 4GB memory cards are SD-HC (SD 2.0) standard compatible, not SD 1.0 compatible in agree with the SD Standard Association. Look a real 4GB SD HC memory card of the pioneer on memory cards in this link and looks the SD HC logo:
http://www.sandisk.com/Products/Ite...sk_miniSDHC_Card_4GB_miniSD_HighCapacity.aspx
SDHC is not backward compatible with SD standard.
Beware of fake product, SanDisk is a reputable manufacturer and the pioneer on this type of memory cards.
Beware
Apparently I bourght a SDHC miniSD card.
Thanks for all the replay. Apparently I bought a SDHC card. It's not comparable with 8125. I have to RMA it, by paying 15% restock fee.
I hope other users won't make the same mistake.
jjss4433
i have seen them at www.unityelectronics.com for $80[USD].
they might be fakes but most people have to format the m and use them as 2-2gb cards.
i almost bought one but i'm going to buy a 2gb tomorrow for $20[USD] from www.newegg.com
&&edit&&
they have the 4gb mini sd on ebay for ~~$35-45 USD.

Just a quick note to all new TyTn / M3100 / Vario II / V1605 owners.
I, like you guys, need to buy a MicroSD memory card :roll:
I was looking at ebay to buy one as I have bought memory cards before for good prices, but found amazon are actually cheaper than ebay!
1GB cards on ebay are going for around £26-£30 plus £6 postage.
Just bought one from amazon (Sandisk) for £23.59 including supersaver delivery.
Just though this might help someone save a few quid!
Markee
a place called mobymemory.com also have them for the £25 but they have 2gb ones in for £62!
Anyone else seen a uk supplier (non ebay) carring 2gb micro SD's yet for less than £62?
Best price I've seen (£52.88 inc vat), but I've never used the supplier and they are not currently in stock:
http://www.memorycardzoo.co.uk/799/Sandisk/Micro-SD/2GB/froogle/&utm_source=froogle&utm_medium=cpc
personally I'm getting up and running with a 1Gb card, and then seeing how the prices settle in a couple of months.
You can get a 2gb card herehttp://www.totallymobile.co.uk/basket.php?action=add&prod=SDSDQ-2048-E10M for £52.49 delivered.
Best price i've seen out of ebay yet!

By the time you've added delivery (€8,90 within germany, and €12,40 within the EU) these are relatively unremarkeable prices.
Around about £22/£23 delivered seems to be the going budget price for a 1Gb microSD.

But the offers you can find in Geizhals are not yet on stock anywhere.
BTW:
Who of you already uses a 2GB MicroSD Card in a TyTN ?
I'd be really curious whether it works or not and if so whether it works well.
There is a Taiwanes (?) manufacturer, who already ships 4 GB *MINI* SD Cards (note: MINI not Micro).
I could well use it in my Qtek 8300 Smartphone (which I often also use as an alternative to a USB stick).
Yet there is a report on the net of someone who has ordered it and found it just shows 2GB on the 8300, but 4GB in a card reader.
So the card is ok, but cannot be read by the mobile !
Problem is that the built-in card reader as well as the driver file has to be able to cope with these large memory cards.
With the normal (full-size) SD Cards there seem to be a spec-barrier at 2GB. There are 4GB cards that can be read in some but not all devices. In most of the devices, which can read them it lasts much longer to access the file directory (e.g. in my Casio Exilim cam :-(
I don't know anything (neither do I have trusted feedback) about the compatibility of 2GB MicroSD cards in PDAs (not to speak of the TyTN).
So I am keen to find out here soon
someone on Howard Forums bought a 2GB from Verizon in the US and says he's having signifcant problems as it seems to lag and slow down his TyTN alot.. dunno if anyone else has issues here..?
I purchased a Sandisk Ultra II (high speed) 1gb from buy.com for $39.99 shipped after rebate in anticipation of ordering my TyTn....Too great of a deal to pass up considering that the Ultra II has almost double the read/write speed of the standard microSD.
That TotallyMobile card looks tempting, but I'd love to know whether there's a significant performance difference between normal vs Ultra II MicroSDs when in use on a HTC Hermes/TyTN. Anyone have any reviews covering this (or on a similar HTC device)?
@ marcusjt
looking at the post from iboj007 it looks like there is a performance improvement as you would expect.
I suppose 2Gb ultraII cards are on their way but how long? then there will be a 4Gb standard card and then there will be a 4Gb ultra II just round the corner etc etc
I noticed that ultra II vs normal in miniSD on the Wizard often made the difference in playback of mp3's and videos from the memory card. I would imagine the same would be the case for the tytn.
I bought this:
1 Gb from ebay
Paid on monday, arrived this morning (four working days). Am currently loading stuff on to it for my visit to Croatia next week.
One thing I have noticed is that it's very easy for the memory card to stick in the reader (on the phone) rather than ejecting with a further press. If you take the back off the phone, and remove the battery, you can see the card reader slot (complete with metal cover) alongside the sim card. In the top left corner of this cover is a small square hole into which the stylus point can be inserted to slide a stuck card forward. I find tweasors most useful for gripping and removing the card.
I hope that helps somebody - it took me a while to figure out.
I got a 2GB sandisk from Verizon and it is recognised fine. The problem i have is when scrolling the list of files it sometimes hangs the whole device as the files start to be displayed. I have formatted the card as FAT but it still happened. Now testing the card formatted as FAT32. I will try changing the card if it still happens.
Got my 2gb Sandisk, works fine. No complaints from me at all.
luke.a.jones, did you format your card and if so with what format: FAT or FAT 32? thanks.
no i did't formatt it i just stuck it straight in, ill check that format its on.
EDIT:
Mine is formatted in FAT.
thanks for the info.
SanDisk 1GB MicroSD not working after 4days!!!
Hi Everyone!
Just to let you know that I suspect a similar problem with the M3100 as I had with my M600. Seeing as the phone as is new, I doubt anyone has been using their microSD cards for longer than a few weeks. My M600 and M500 had problems with recognising the SD cards (sometime, not always) and now this with my brand new M3100 and SanDisk... Wondering if its maybe a wide spread problem... else I should be Jinx in the next Bond movie!
Let me know how your microSDs fare.
Viktor
P.S. I won't be able to reply for 2 weeks - I am off on holiday!

I bought my 2GB microSD card (Sandisk) from Verizon in the U.S., and it is working great! Of course, I haven't tried playing any movies yet.
Hi,
I'l like to purchase either a 1GB or 2GB card for my TyTn. Some of the local stores only keep the 1GB Sandisk and no 2GB.
The question I have is the one store only has the standard Sandisk 1GB Micro SD Card and not the Sandisk Ultra II.
Is there really a big difference in performance and what would one recommend as a card and where to purchase from over the internet?
Thanks
Ari

FYI, I dont think there is a Sandisk Ultra II 2GB card available. And the Ultra II cards are supposed to be much faster (W/R, 9MB/10MB) compared to the regular cards.
- JoKer
microSD available many places
You will see the 2 GB Sandisk microSD available all over the place. eBay has them, as well as various vendors with internet purchasing.
Eventually, we'll see the "ultra" sandisk versions of the microSD. For now, I went for the 2 GB version available, because 1 GB is too limiting, especially if you use the TyTN for music.
my question is, does anyone have a high capacity ie. 4GB card working with the windows mobile six from att website. If so what brand, size, and class are you using.
I will start by saying i have a 4gb transcend card that works sometimes after reinserting it. It is a class 6 speed.
Basically im looking to replace my card with one that is more reliable and that works all the time.
As far as i know.... And i may definitely be wrong here
The Hermes bootloader doesnt support micro SDHC card...So if you want to flash from a SD card, you always need a 2gig or smaller card.
Alot of the ROMs available here do have micro SDHC (i think also known as SD2.0) support, but i am not sure about the "official" ROMs!!!
2gb mini sd here: i heard 8125 supports it http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/SanD...-13072/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do#availability
but it costs the same as the 4 gb mini sdhc link here:
http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/SanD...05804/catOid/-13072/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do
i heard 8125 had problems but the users got their card from ebay and 99.99% ebay mem sticks are verified FAKE! aka counterfeit.
so which one should i get guys? once i get back in an hour ill be upgrading my cingular 8125 to wm 6.1 (currently 5.0) is there anyway to run the 4gb sdhc? or do i have to buy the mini sd? and would both cards fit in the slot?
believe me!!!!
Buy the 2GB minisd
Buy two or three men, because Wizards dont supports SDHC.....
Believe me dont waste your money.
Does not seam like im the only one having problems with my card. I have posted a couple of times and was directly refering to att rom. I have since tried some new roms and my transcend 4 gb class 6 still does not work properly. Before I purchase a new one I would like to know what everyone else is using. I would like to get a 4 gb because that is in my price range.
Thanks,
Nicholas
Well, not using SDHC Card, just 2Gb SanDisk arround many WM6/6.1 ROMs, and it's works well
I have a sandisk 2GB and it works great no problems. The price gap between a 2gb and a 4gb cards has me salivating for more space.
I'm using an 8GB SDHC card (Class 4: around 7.5MB/sec) from SanDisk. You can easily find them these days for around € 30,-
I'm using SunDisk 8Gb sold at AT&T store. It has been working without fail so far. Previously I have used 2gb, 4Gb version and they works fine with everyday I play music during my commute and place temp file for the pocket explorer as well as exchange push-ed e-mail attachments.
Hi
I run Schap's 3.54b and use a class 2 SanDisk 4Gb SDHC (part no. SDSDQ-4096-E11M).
It works perfectly!!
Now i'm waiting a 8Gb bought here at great price:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.13305
When i test it i'll let you know.
Bye
I've got my new 8Gb SanDisk uSHDC (code SDSDQ-8192-P60M) and it works well on my Hermes200.
sandisk 4GB, so many mp3s and TV shows =P.
I just bought an 8GB SanDisk Mobile Ultra (Class 8 microSDHC) from a local store here today. It's been working great so far.
I have Sandisk 8gb class4....
Question:
Will a San Disk 16gb class2 work in my phone?
Sandisk 4GB is about right for my hermes...
sandisk 4gb.
SanDisk 4GB class2
Not working, Hermes (Tytn)
ROM Schap's pro 4.31, not working
ROM WM_6.1_TouchFlo2D_UC_ WWE v3, not working

Someone can help?
2GB Kingston
I got a killer deal on outpost.com (Fry's online store) today. $11.99 for a 2gb micro sd card "mobility kit", with usb adapter, and 2 added adapters (sd and mini sd). If you order online and then choose your local Fry's as the pickup you can get the online prices "in the store" right then and there without a delivery charge. Has a lifetime warranty and case for the spare adapters.
I'm running the old 5.0 O/S on my Hermes. It recognized it right away. No problems.

I have a 4GB class 6 card from Transcend. Price was around 11,- € and it works great. No problems till now and a reading speed of 14 MB/s and writing speed of 9 MB/s.
Wait... a second...
Does SDHC works with tytn (hermes100) att 8525?
But... are you using a patch for drivers or certificates?
I think it dont recognize HC?!!!!
Damn!!!
I'm using a SanDisk 4GB class2, and it works just fine.
I keep a lot of pdf manuals, excel and word files on it. Along with installing extra programs, and backing things up.

Damn is right, LOL.. I bought a Kingston 2GB SD card from micro center, they had 4GB on sale too, I saw on HTC site Hermes only supported 2GB..
So how big a card can I go? Does the ROM have anything to do with that? I'm using WM6.1Pro..
I think someone already replied in this thread saying they are running a 16gb card. I have a tiny 6gb now and will upgrade to a 16gb soon. Need more storage, TomTom 7 uses over a gig just for maps and install software.
