hi guys, cannot find correct specification anywhere.
which is the limit of Hero regarding MicroSD cards in terms of Gb and SDHC(2/4/6)?
thx
As far as I know the Hero supports all MicroSDHC cards up to 32 GB, no matter whether they are Class 2, 4 or 6.
According to the specs the Hero is fully SD 2.0 compatible (SD 2.0 = SDHC).
Can Hero install apps and run it from SD if not root-ed?
no.
all android phones run the apps from the phone memory unless you have rooted it and installed an app like app2sd.

Are you sure about the GB limit being 32GB? I've read on several review sites that the hero supports up to 16GB, is there any source?
i'm running the hero with a 16GB class6 without any problem.
Good luck in finding a 32GB micro SD

Hi All
Just ordered my new o2 orbit 2. Upgrading from my orbit 1.
I'm assuming it's still a tiny micro-SD card. Does anyone know what the largest capacity card that is supported by the orbit 2 ?
Jeff
how about something like ?

Theoretically the HTC Polaris can support MicroSD up to 2GB and MicroSDHC up to 32 GB cards. Anyway in this moment the maximun capacity I've seen is MicroSDHC 8 GB cards (I've a 8 GB Sandisk and it works perfect), so don't worry...

Guess what you get if you search for 'memory card size' on the polaris forums ( advanced search ) ?
Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms
It doesn't even pick up my new post.
I did search before I posted, always do. Sorry if you find it dull that i've posted a question that I could not find an answer to but that's what I thought these forums where for...
The 6GB card you linked to will be fine, and importantly it is supplied with an SDHC capable reader for the USB slot on the PC.
The Orbit 2/ Polaris can go up to a capacity of 32GB (if you can find cards this large at the moment they would be very costly) - 8GB are certainly available and I have seen 16GB is about to be released (might already be available, at a price) - Mike
MicroSD SDHC drawbacks?
Considering operation specifically for the Touch Cruise, are there any reasons to forgo (to do without) the additional capacity of the SDHC to gain greater than class 4 or 6 speeds (ie: sandisk ultra II microsd with read/write speads of 10/9 m/s)? Would these greater speeds help significantly with video playback or rendering pictures, or would one advise that the difference is negligible and definitely not worth giving up the excess storage potential?
I bought an 8GB Sandisk microSDHC class 4 (with microreader included) for 52 euros. Installed Tomtom Maps of Western Europe on the card and several movies (created with CloneDVD Mobile). Tomtom 6.032 as well as the movies played with Coreplayer 1.1.3 are running smooth. Hence class 4 should be fast enough.
Thanks
Appreciate the comment. I'll have to check out that clonedvd mobile software.
i bought an 8gb sandisk one on ebay for 45$. i was dissapointed though that the built in "all in one" card reader on my crappy ass dell xps m1210 laptop can't read sdhc. still a good purchase though, filled up to 6 gb so far with music and gps maps, etc. i do not notice any performance issues with sdhc.

The fastest speed of Sandisk MicroSd SDHC is class 4, wonder where you did find Ultra II?
Applications like Tomtom will run better (smoother) using a faster MicroSD card, the fastest speed I could find so far is Class 4. As soon as there is a faster card available I will go for it, as long as it is at least 8GB.
I've seen 12GB ones for sale. Would say TC can't use more than class 2, f/s video doesn't use that much!
There's plenty threads about problems recognizing 8GB cards tho, that suddenly it ;becomes; 2GB?

What do you mean with TC can't use more than class 2
The faster the accesstime to the MicroSd card the better the overall performance. If class 6 becomes available I will go for it
I am using a Sandisk 8GB SDHC cards which is a class 4 and it works fine.

I use the same card and I am happy with it, however, an application like Tomtom is depending on a lot of data transfer between the card and the application. I contacted Tomtom to figure out how to get a smooth working screen and the answer was, processor speed and data transfer speed of the card. In my previous equipment, a Mio A201 PDA, I replaced the 60X SD card with a 150X SD card and Tomtom run much smoother.

I thot it only affects sustained transfer. Burst/accesstime are something else.

No, it affects transfer speed in general.
Hi everbody, I'd like to know whether it is possible or not to extend the memory of my Polaris with micro SDHC card or only micro SD??!!
Thanks

Yes, the Polaris is compatible with microSDHC. I as well as many others are using 8GB microSDHC cards. Many people have asked this question, and its also listed in many online spec sheets as well as in the manual.
I can confirm the polaris WILL work with the MICRO SDHC because I'm using the 6gb SDHC. I heard it's capable of 32gb maximum.
16GB cards are on their way!
I am more interested in a MicroSD 8Gb Class 6 instead of 16Gb Class 4.
Polaris specs from HTC:
"Expansion Slot microSD™ memory card (SD 2.0 compatible)"
SD 2.0 = SDHC
Specification of SD define max 32GB

Hi,
No problems, I use Sandisk 8GB microSDHC wit my Touch Cruise.
Yosi
I use a Sandisk 8g SDHC, class 4, and goes pretty well!!!
do have you view a real difference of speed (program run, take photo, Tomtom navigate) on a SDHC class 4 and a SDHC class 6 ?
(sorry for my english)

I haven't seen any Class6 of 8 Gb MicroSDHC (maybe there is no one??). If i'm right 16gb microsdhc will be available in stores only from december
I don't have experience with changing to a class 6 card, I do have changing from a none classed micro sd to a class 4 micro sdhc card.
I noticed a performance boost specially in loading tomtom.

there will be no ANY differrence betwen class4 and 6 in phone
huge difference will be visible only in data coping on computer using card reader
fast memory cards were doveloped for cameras and other devices with fast readers - our phones are far from this
view this link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2590710#post2590710
The "class number" is for "speed write" and not "speed read".
An application that read data (map,photo,video...) on microSD class 4 or class 6 has same performance.
obviously sdhc class refer to write speed - that is definition
I just do not wite every time "write/read"
reading speed may increase, but it depends on card
it das not changing fact, that in HTC TC will be no visible difference betwen cards - but huge differnce will be in other devices
and yes, I did check it I have two Sandisk card - both read and write speed are different in my card readers (in both readers I have)
hi,what is different between class 4 class 6 of memory card?

Hope that says all.
so thats mean upto 32gb max supported
Just bought a 16Gb class 2 microSDHC card today, made by Kingston.
I had no idea it would work, just took the chance.
Well it is working
Since it seemed to be my lucky day, I tried to flash megade 1.7.3 from the 16g card -> it worked. He he,
... going to really use my JADE as an MP3 player now !
I am using 32gb. and thats the max.
oh by the way 64 will also supports High Capacity (SD 2.0/HC) .. so 64 may work in the future.
I think 16GB is enough.
thnxs guys for anwsers )
Hello,
Do you know whether HTC G1/Dream could support an micro SDHC card of 8GB?
According with HTC support team the G1 supports micro SDHC of 2 or 4 GB, the say it could support 8 GB too, but I have to test it first before. So I would like to know whether someone of you have tried this card.
Thanks in advance.
Yes, HTC G1/Dream supports 8Gb microSD cards. Recently i`ve bought one, and it is working in my device - so buy it without fear))
The only thing to pay attention to is a microSD class - the more the better. These are 2 class, 4 class, 6 and so one. As for me, i have a 6 class Kingston microSD.
yes but only up to 8gb and nothing higher

nah coz i got a g1 one and a 16 gb micro sd in it but mine is rooted
dno if that makes a difference
Maximum of 32GB but a 16GB is cheaper and plenty for most people.
I use minisd 8gb class 6 .verry fast ................
Sent from my Gingerbread on Dream using XDA App
My G1 is using a 16 Gb class 6 card, its pretty fast with a2ext
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using xda premium
I'm using a 16gb microSd card. So the G1 supported up to 32gb.
But in my opinion 16 gb are enough(music+pics). I have a class 10 card and its running very fast.
WORKING
yUP it Support upto 8gb bu internalz very low
A 16GB micro SDHC definitely didn't work on my old one but a 8 possibly would..

A 32gb card works on mine.

Hi everyone, At the moment I`m using 16 Gb SDHC card, Kingston on sgs2, but I want to buy 32 Gb memory card, anyone now if 32 Gb SDCH cards is compatible with sgs2? Coz on specifications it say SD card not SDHC. I did some research but can`t find right answer, someone say is it, someone say not. Also class 10 is compatible with sgs2? Any help/suggestions/tips will be much appreciate!!!!
of course a 32gb sdhc card is supported. it says so in any spec sheet. sdhc stands for sd High Capacity, so there is no way to mix those up, as any card above the mark of 4GB is an sdhc card. also class 10 should be supported w/o any problem. if a device is capable of running sd 2.0 cards (sdhc) it can run ANY card that meets that specification, no matter the speed or capacity.
