Will this work with our Photons?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lexar-32GB-...1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1318161717&sr=1-1
The price isn't half bad plus it has free shipping. Also, class 10.
Interested if anyone's using one in their photons or anything similar (32gb class 10).
I have a class 6 16GB in mine. WOrks decently. From what I recall the higher the class the quicker it will work, etc etc. And I think for the most part an SD card is an SD card, so if the price is right, and you NEED that much room, get it.
yup. as long as card is genuine it should work.
Thanks guys. That's what I needed to hear!
and yes I do need that much space ^^
@devil:
lexar has good quality products.
when you buy plz share your experience.
Haha. Cool Man. Let us know how it goes.

Be very carefully when buying these types of items from amazon.
I wanted a 32gb SD card also. Did a lot of web searching for the best price. Found a sandisk 32gb on amazon for about 30 bucks. I jumped all over it. When they arrrived 2 weeks later from China, it was pretty obvious that they were knock offs. The printed label on the card was missing the class information, and the SD adaptor that came with it had a label that was poorly placed. When I inserted the card, it showed the correct amount of memory, 27gb or thereabouts. But problems appeared when actually using the card. Music synced from comp would appear while still connected to comp, but would dissappear completely when disconnected, or appear, but have a 0 byte file size. When i took pictures, they would appear as green blocks when viewed with gallery.
Just make sure your buying from a reputable dealer.
Also, not sure of your location, but current exchange says that item is $65 US. I bought a 32gb, class 10 from best buy for the same price. So its not that good of a price. Though I can't seem to find one right now, they come and go.
the seller in the devilshadow'S link is amazon itself.
Further, Sandisk,Kingston and memorette has too many fakes.
Have not heard fake card of Lexar or PNY.

I'm in europe so the price is about 50ish Euros for me for the card I linked. Also, i am fully aware of the massive knockoff market when it comes to SD cards. It's part of the reason I chose amazon over Ebay. I've also made sure to check if the SD card i bought has the "Dispatched from and sold by Amazon.co.uk" status. The user reviews also guarantee it's genuine.
I bought mine straight from Lexar when they were first released. Ran it in the Evo and now in my Photon.
My first one started exhibiting corruption and eventually died (a few months before I got the Photon). Lexar replaced it with minimal hassle and it's been good to go since.

Lost my 16gb Card!!!
I have a missing 16gb that I was using, I lost it when I removed it to unlock my bootloader as a precaution.
Looking to get a 32gb card!!!
OK, I will say this one more time. #1, Not all cards are alike. I have a class 2 32Gb SanDisk that has treated me well, on Fuze, Evo, and Photon. I got a class 6 32Gb knock-off for the speed BUT, after we ran the test, my SanDisk blew it away by over 50% speed wise.
Next, I noticed by playing with others phones (Hey, I like to play with phones?), depending on what your doing, is different. For example, playing music or playing a game. Games, I found, need higher I/O than music.
I just bought a 32gb lexar class 10 for $60 at best buy. Im in canada right now. Future shop had a sale, they were sold out. I printed it out and best buy gave me the same deal. My advice is becareful online, there are lots fake cards. Look for sales from a reputable retailer.

Will our Photon support one of the new 64GB cards like this one?
http://amzn.com/B005VFG0B2
According to our phone's specifications, that is a firm "No".
Do NOT waste your money buying one, unless you have another device that can support it. It will not work on the Motorola Photon 4G, or the Motorola Electrify.
As far as I know the new Samsung Galaxy Note is the only phone out that supports that card.

How much more does the sdxc part cost vs the sdhc? I think we'll be good on the sdxc spec for a while, the size limit is 2TB.
The bad reviews are supposedly from an old batch of cards that had bad firmware. They are said to have resolved the issues. It's a very good price if you don't mind dealing with the rebate. And from what I've read, if you do get a bad one, they are very good about replacing it. Here's the link.

No more rebate. :'(
As an FYI I bought a Lexar 16Gb class 10 micro SD card from future shop for $20. It was a part of their boxing day sales. should still be on like that till the end of the week if you can find them in stock.
I do however live in canada so i dont know if that makes a difference.
The 32GB lexar card was on for $30.
EDIT: the 32gb card was class 10 as well...
Still has a $10 mail in rebate

edit didnt notice the rebate but still only 1.28 more for a better brand and u dont have to deal with rebate to get that 1.28 saveings
That's a class 2/4 instead of 10.
Costco has 5 dollars off coupon in their book that starts on Jan 5. 16 gig class 6 micro sd card. I got one for 10 off on Black Friday there, good card

Not necessarily.
I got mine yesterday and tested it with h2testw. It is in fact a 32gb class 10 card. Whether it breaks down the line is another story, but it is what it claims to be.

According to what I am seeing, that is a Class 2. Not quite the same as a Class 10.
Anyone know if this is compatible with the Amaze?
Just curious if anyone has actually tried it.
Good price right now at Best Buy!

Haven't tried it but for what I hear and understand it won't work.
That's what I thought. Too bad! Woulda been nice to have 64gb of music and videos on my phone!
There has been report on Android Community that indeed this new SDXC cards works on many devices - both old and new phone, tablet (SGII, SGS, HTC Sensation ... )

Gathering infos from those link, it seems like one will have to using the phone to format (aka erase the card from inside the phone) the card and in some case, formatted it to NTFS
Some time ago while i still had htc sensation there was a post about it and 64 gb worked but not the 128gb. I assume its the same for the amaze but dont takemy word for it search the forums. From what i found the galaxy note cant use 128 gb one

If anyone has knowledge of what works on the Amaze please let us know!
Guess we're just going to have to wait for someone to buy one of those 64 or 128 cards and find out. I went ahead and bought a 32gb card last week before I even saw this post. Too bad, if I'd have known there was a possibility that the 64 would work, I would've gotten that one.

I use Google music but then again you need data connection and it uses bandwidth. Not a big music listener. I'm more of a photo person hence the amaze.
I thought the Amaze accept 32GB max.
how could you use 64GB, is there any way how to bypass this limit ?
if it worked on the sensation why wouldnt it on the amaze?

Someone should go to best buy, try it and then return it
Sent from my HTC Ruby using XDA App
That was my plan. I have some Best Buy gift cards but unfortunately they are sold out. If the price stays the same when they are back in stock I may do it.
I get paid this Thursday and I was going to get a 32 but if anyone can find the 64 in stock by then I will give it a shot and let everyone know if it works
Does Bestbuy have a restocking fee?
I would try it but I hardly use the entire 32gb on my existing card so don't really have a need for it.
Maybe if someone worked at a place that sold them and they could just try it out. Maybe that's asking a lot though.

I don't believe there's a restocking free on sd cards...just computers, tablets, tvs.. not small stuff...a quick call would suffice.
works perfectly
Hey y'all,
I noticed some wondering about this card.
So I got mine from Amazon, class10 64mb sdxc
When I first put it in, notification said card error.
Then it prompted me to reformat.
I let the amaze reformat her and now I've got 60 gb free showing in the settings apk under storage.
Just wanted everyone to feel confident I'd they want to spend the money, several vendors addy amazon do have the cards in stock now.
Good luck!
i may have to end up ordering one
I've returned a 32Gb PNY card about two weeks ago from BestBuy and there is no restocking fee charged.
Went shopping yesterday.. A few places had 16gb cards for 16$ here in Canada, picked up 32gb card for 28$ from Staples.

Dude so what who cares it's just a thread
Thats a decent deal. For microSD cards, if you pay $1 or less PER GB, thats considered a deal.

what class are the MSD cards? any possible links?
Not sure the rules on links.. but the card in question is here.
It's a Class 4 SDHC ... read 15 MB/second.. write is slower. Doesn't identify how much. Shown as "$50 off" and on sale til May 15.

A 64gb microsdhc card on eBay for ~$60 shipped from Hong Kong...... not sure if you are aware of this but the majority of these "too good to be true" deals on eBay for microsdhc cards from Asia are fake.
Don't be surprised if it is a counterfeit when you get it. I do not recommend anyone buy microsdhc cards from eBay. There are a lot of fakes out there and most importantly manufacturers will not honor your warranty if something were to go wrong with the card.
Be smart people, spend the extra money and buy from a reputable vendor like newegg, Amazon, bestbuy, staples, etc. You will thank yourself later.

All that.. plus there is no way I could sit back and wait for a full month for this card. I was plugging along with just a 4 GB card and really needed the 32 at LEAST. I figured this was a good trade off .. cash vs. patience.. LOL

I would advise caution, and use a reputable ebay seller. Mine deserved his 5 stars review from me. I watched 50+gigs of video files get copied and show up and play, so I know I wasn't scammed. It is a genuine red-and-gray Sandisk.
But I won't speak for anyone else's lack of pre-research.
$65 bucks for a 64gb card is outstanding... and lucky for me, I am patient; years of cool and cheap goodies from dealextreme.com under my belt in preparation.
Example: picked up an outstanding leather case for my Note with the drawstrap built in, cost all of $2.60 and shipped for free. Those guys don't seem to care about losing money shipping small items from Hong Kong free.
(no, I did not buy the card from dx.com)
I agree, know what kind of seller they are before making the purchase. eBay isnt all that bad, ive bought hundreds of stuff on there and never got scammed. *knocks on wood*. Also, if you use paypal, you can always dispute an item.

I'm not sure b/c from what I'm seeing reading, the Scandisk micro SDs seem to perform better and sometimes way better benchmarking then their class specification.... and others seem to be just ok or worse (was looking at a class 6 from another company that others said performed more like a 4). Meanwhile the Scandisk cards were performing more like a 6 if not faster yet rated class 4.... odd lol
Prices will always be cheaper in the future so there is no point in waiting. Buy one if you feel like you need one right now.
Also, there are tons of fake memory cards out there so I'd advise you to pay a little more and buy directly from Amazon if you can. The one you posted is advertised on Amazon but "ships and sold by Everything But Stromboli".
This one is sold by Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007KFXIDE?psc=1

I got my two SanDisk 32gb micro sd cards (class 4) for like.. around $20 including shipping each from 1saleaday.com .. I also checked to make sure they were actually 32 gb, or at least the first one (i just stuffed a **** ton of things into it and made sure I could do it).
Check the other threads in the accessories forum, there should be at least one or two threads about SD cards. This thread should be moved there, as well.
i always check out SlickDeals they always have posts about SD Cards.
In general Amazon looks like the best place, iIve seen 32gig class 10 for about $28-35.
Ending up ordering this http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007KFXIDE?psc=1 , 21 bucks on Prime was a good deal. Great reviews and seems it performs better than it's "class 4" spec.
Looked at some of the class 10's but prices and reviews were all over the place. Was just wondering if any sales were going on, knowing my luck I get this and tomorrow there will be a 64gb somewhere for 20 bucks on clearance lol
