Title says it all. I want to get an SD card for my XDA, is there a maximum size that the XDA can read (nothing mentioned in the manual) and after reading the horror stories here about wiped and corrupted data, is there any manufactorer that anyone would recomend?
hey mate,
i used to have a 512 mb sd by sandisk...hated it. it only allowed me to use around 380 mb; then would reject any other files i attempted to save in it. also had a 128mb by sandisk and same problem as the 512; couldn't use all of the said capacity. sold them; then got a panasonic 128 mb card. loved it. so i went and tried a panasonic 512 and worked great as well. since then i've been using panasonic sd cards. other guys in the forum should have other brands which work well with them. no offense to those using sandisk though
cheers

i'm using a Twinmos Ultra-X 512MB SD card and i haven't experienced those memory wipeout problem that other users were talking about. didn't notice any problems with it.
02 XDA2 v1.72WWE PH10B
I use both 256mb and 512mb Viking SD cards. Both work great (though a little slow when writing to them) and they are cheap on ebay. Never had the memory wipe problem either.
XDA running WM2003.
SD card for QTEK 2020
Hi,
I've bought an Extrememory SD card 1 Go (almost the cheaper one !) and it works perfectly !
I am using Kingston 256mb.
DONT BUY
They work VERY slow, resulting in malfunctioning TomTom when I activate POI in navigation mode.
if your going to buy SD cards try to find those high speed versions. :idea:
Hi !
How can we know the speed of SD or MMC Card? But for Flash drive (mobile storage) we can know it is a USB-1.0 or USB-2.0.
Can anyone can give me some details about this? Now, I'm using a 256 MB MMC (NCP HEXON brand), it works great but somebody told me that it works slower than (Transcand brand).
Sorry, I think it is a stupid question but I really don't understand about it.
Thanks in advance,
I'm using a Lexar 32x 512mb card in my XDA2 and its great.
I use it for TomTom Navigator GPS and the "higher speed" makes a very significant difference to the time taken to access data from the card.
What's the difference then between the SD cards and the MMC? I have notices the MMC has a price premimum so I am assuming its faster/better.. Can the XDA I use either?
Edy\Anyone else, your original post said XDA but I have noticed that everyone who replied has an XDA II. Is their a difference for a max card size (SD\MMC) that can be used between the two.
From O2 shop they released the info that the XDA terra can use 4GB micro SD.
This is the product on a German O2site

Just for Info
Now we just have to wait for a major price drop. €99 is a lot of money compared to the standard 2GB mircoSD which are available for around $20-25. But great info anyways.
Something like this??

Exactly, it's just disturbing that I already bought a 1GB and a 2GB microSD. If prices drop faster I will get a SDHC, I think.
Yes...I am using a 4GB Sandisk HC micro SD card! Working fine on my Herald with WM6. It is a little big thicker than my normal 2GB card and so you "gotta" help it a little bit to remove it from your phone. It came with an adaptor and a USB stick SD card reader. Even my laptop is happy to read/write on it. I am running Vista on my laptop...
The best part...I bought it second hand (cheaper) as the guy could not use it on his phone.
I can confirm that too...
I've been using a 4GB SDHC in my Wing since I bought it, love having room for movies and programs.
Just wanted to add another confirmation to the list.
Thanks folks. I know what my next purchase is!
Anyone try the 6gb card yet? Both are Class 4.
Hello!
Since one week I had a 6GB SDHC on my P4350 and it works fine.
Greetings

wow, the 8 gb just went out
Do you thing a 6go SDHC memory card such as this one would work on my terra?

SDHC Driver for WM6
http://rapidshare.com/files/54000980/sdhc-driver-x500.zip
Thx m8 but still is not working, i thik is a hardware problem ... the wizard dose not suport SDHC.
As stated in many other threads, SDHC will never come to the Wizard, the hardware does not support it, and no matter how many times people ask, it will still not work.
/end rant
Actually SDHC is not a hardware issue but rather a driver issue to understand the new format of the SDHC cards.

Im a little bit confused with MINI-SD & MINI-SDHC.
According to wat i'd read was HTC WIZARD mini-sd, expandable upto 2GB.
I want to buy a 4gb card.
Will it work with my Wizard - HT617 ???
Will an SDHC card work?? or Do i need a MINI SD - 4GB only???
If yes, Wher can i get a 4GB MINI SD(non sdhc) card??? plz post new active links.....of sellers....
Plz Xcuse for my kiddo Questions......

Have a thread in HTC Universal about a member who developped a .cab file and a ROM that read mini SdHC. Universal, as we now, is windows mobile too. I tryed the cab on my Qtek A9100 e doesn't work.
But I'm still holdind my sdhc card. Let's wait. They will find a solution.
My english is bad? Sorry.

finally someone that thinks the same as me. like i said my self too that its a driver problem. i have a dell axim x50v upgraded to wm6(cool ) and it supports SDHC cards and this device was made maybe when the prototypes of SDHC cards where being made.
I feel that right now they wont work but later we will get them to work.
4 GB Mini SD
I've been using a 4 gig card now for a few months - every 30 days or so have to reformat the card. Working though. Bought mine on Ebay.
4 Gb works very well, but SDHC, don't.

Agreed SDHC doesn't work at all, but to say 4GB works "very well" is totally misleading. Look at all the posts from people reporting problems with 4GB cards. You're extremely lucky indeed if you can find a totally reliable 4GB non-SDHC card. Even people reporting success tend to post again a couple of months later reporting corruption or total breakdown of the card.
So there is no driver out there for SDHC?
I guess that means upgrading to WM6.....

WM6 won't help either. There's rumour of support in some roms but nobody actually running an SDHC card.
I was thinking that it might be possible to produce a hardware SDHC Transflash to SD Mini adapter. The problem lies in how the card is addressed, so if an SD Mini adapter could be made with a built-in SD to SDHC interface the problem would effectively go away. There might be some incentive for the industry to produce such an interface if the price of >4GB SDHC Transflash cards drops low enough.
I guess there might be overheads in access times and power consumption though. Any thoughts?
Oooo, a month passed, but no driver for wizard appeared.
How about Wizard SDHC?
anybody can you tell which non SDHC 4gb card tu buy ?
I want to know which is the fastest ? or bestest ?

Absolutly works, go for it my freind. Who said no? Just in case make sure you install SDHC storage driver, if needed.

I bought a minisd card no sdhc and it works great, it has no label of brand only minisd i look at several and they look all the same to me, probably they are made in the same place and they only change the label But if you whant a faster card try one of sandisk extreme maybe there is one without sdhc. Hope it helps
I've been using a Topram 4gb miniSD for almost a year now and have never had it fail or had to re-format it.

Hi.
I have an O2 XDA IIs with WM6 CE OS 5.2.1620 build 18125.0.4.2.
I purchased a Sandisk 4gb SDHC micro SD card.
I tried to install the driver that you post here but it does not work and my XDA won't read my original Micro SD card 2gb.
I tried to uninstall the sdhc.cab and my XDA can read my 2gb micro sd card but still it wont read my SDHC 4gb card.
Sir, I hope you can help me with this so I can use my 4gb sdhc card.
Thank you in advanced.
RED_HANKS™
anyone who have XDA IIs here with WM6?
does this patchers/drivers worked?
I tried it on mine in all ways but it does not work, it does not recognized my Sandisk Micro SD HC card 4GB.....
Help Me Out PLEASE!!!!
Can anyone please HELP ME?
I am begging you guys!!!
red hanks, you should be reading all of the other posts on this topic before you start begging for help.
Your best bet is to take that SDHC card back to the shop and see if they can swap it for a non-SDHC card.
There is no SDHC driver for the BA, and it is extreamly unlikely that there ever will be.
Good luck with swaping it, or finding a 4Gb SD (non -SDHC) card that works.
Sorry for this...
It is so SAD that there is no SDHC Driver for my O2 XDA IIs...
Well, I can not return the product now to the retailer store..
This is a brandnew Sandisk 4gb micro SD HC with card reader..
I think I will just sell this one...
Anyone interested??

Hi there.
I stumbled on this forum looking for something else to do with my Kaiser phone and found this thread.
I used to own several Blue Angel and over the three years or so of owning them I only ever managed to get a 2gb standard non sdhc card to work.
I remember waiting ages and ages in the hope of various updates and driver to no avail.
Your best bet is to try and get hold of a newer model HTC phone such as the TYTN or prophet. The prophet is the one phone I miss as it was almost perfect. I know its easier said than done but it sounds like you are in the same boat I was in. I used to watch tons of films and listen to music on my BA and was fed up with not being able to use SDHC or at least a 4gb card.
However, all said and done the BlueAngel ROCKs!! especially using the Bluetooth stereo profile which was why I kept mine so long.
Best wishes and good luck mate.
Your friend Nick.

Hi Nick,
Thanks. Well I guess I better buy a new memory card but not an SD HC..
I just waisted almost $100 for this Sandisk 4gb micro sdhc,
Nick, about that prophet what exactly phone is that?
haaaaaay....
Well, I am too busy to browse the whole forum for my concern so sorry about that free888...
The good part with my BA is that i can purchase all of its components (buttons, lcd, keybad, housing, etc) for a cheap price here in my country..so I am not letting go of my lovely BA, maybe I will just buy a new model made by HTC so I can enjoy them both....what about XDA Flame?hmmmmm
hi,
just to let you know that a standard 4GB non-sdhc (SD) card works great on my BA; SD is a Transcend, rom is 1.40.02.

yeah, me too. the transcend 4gb sd card is compatible with many devices.
BTW, red_hanks, if you paid $100 for a 4gb sdhc, you got ripped off. return it and buy a 4gb sd(non-hc) on ebay. they go for around $35.

It will only take one of the many gurus we have on this forum to put their mind to it and we will get our SDHC working patch. Trust me, it is not impossible or improbable.
Well, all of you are right guys...anyway, can't return it anymore to the retailer store since I don't have the Proof of Purchased and it is over 7 days already...well, I guess I can just buy an electronic Item next time, like a digicam that supports SD HC so I can use this freaking Micro SD HC 4gb..hehehe
I just wonder...What does a Ba don't have and other PPC have why (BA) can't read an SD HC? Well, regarding with a driver for that how come no one can work on it, you can crack a lot of softwares but a driver for SD HC for BA is kinda impossible???huh! I don't believe so...
hi guys,
I tried to search for the standard (non-HC) transcend 4gb sd card on eBay but all the cards I found were SDHC, is there another way to find a 4 GB card that would work with the Siemens SX-66
Thanks
I also checked ebay and noticed that there are no transcend SD cards. However there are lots of 4GB cards that are not listed as being SDHC.
Is it hit and miss for what will work or not? even though the auctiongs don't list them as SDHC?
4GB non-HC SD 45x, 150x
Hello, try doing a search for 4GB SD 45x SD or 4GB 150x SD and you'll find some for around $25. Newegg.com had some about 2 months ago.
Hi Guys!
I have 8525 and i need some INFO about this phone i just got it so i need to buy a memory card which one does 8525 support? and how many GB can support??
Thanks
It supports the Micro SD card. Do not confuse with the Mini SD, Micro SD is the real small one. I think it can take up to 2 GB. (Don't hold me to the size.)
I use a "SunDisk" Micro SD 2GB card and it`s work preety fine.

It depends on if the phone has WM5 or 6.
Last I read, WM6 has support for SHDC cards, which have a limit of 32 gig per the spec. If you have WM5 on the phone, you are stuck with a standard SD, which is limited to 2 gig by the spec.
However, you might be able to find a 4 gig non-SDHC. I don't know if they exist in microSD formats, but I have a standard size SD card that is 4 gig.
Used it in my Blue Angel. Worked fine, if not a bit slow (data transfer was faster when I had it divided into a pair of 2 gig 'cards'. Think this was due to the overhead of a fat32 filesystem).
My hermes came with WM6 and is working perfectly with the 4gig sandisk I picked up over the weekend.
I have a 8gig sdhc card in mine with schaps newest rom. I cant wait for my 16 I just hope its supported

It should be. Spec is good for up to 32 gig.
...and after a quick google to verify, it looks like Toshiba and Sandisk both have announced 32gig cards. That didn't take long. Of course, I have a 4 gig non-SDHC SD card, so if someone 'extends' the spec officially with new access modes, or makes a card that is not quite SDHC spec, they may be able to release larger sizes without hardware/software upgrades for existing devices.
BTW, if you don't mind me asking, what do you have on that machine that you need a 16 gig card?
Heck, I'm using just a shade over 330 meg, and got the 4 gig card only because it was a good deal.
