Where did you buy it from. If ebay or you got it cheap, from else where, its probably fake.

Vibrant only supports 16 gig micro sd max. 32 gig will not work on it. Previous post may be correct it may be fake, they just modify the index so when you load it looks like it is a 32gig but in reality it is not. If you want to get a decent sd card that is cheap and reliable get the micro sd class 10 16gig by Wintec. I have a posting on the performance of various chips this performed the best and it was 35 bucks

32gb micro sd cards do work on the vibrant depending on the brand. Cheap ones from ebay have issues.

SD card

I was planning to get 32gb sd card for my x10i so i was wondering will it work with it. Reviews around the web say that max card cant be bigger than 8 or 16 while some say it can be 32 :s
Anyone knows which one is true or where i can get that information in the phone. I dont want to waste all that money if it wont work.
Thx in advance and sorry for bad english

I am running a 32Gb class 4 SD card I bought off Amazon on mine right now. Great as I have 20Gb on it so need the space. Only thing I find is it adds a little time to your boot up as takes a little longer to loads your apps that are on SD. If you use apps2sd that is.

I need more space for music so I don't think it will change my boot time. Either way I don't mind I'm glad it works
Thx for reply

Sandisk 32gb class 4 working just fine here from amazon. Be careful if you are thinking of picking up a cheap one off ebay. The place is riddled with fakes. 32gb support was added in firmware update so if your at 1.6 you may want to check.

Multiple Storage Partitons

Hello All,
I apologize if there was a thread about this in the past I tried searching but wasn't sure how to exactly word it. I was wondering about sd cards and partitions, I believe that the max size the atrix 4g is 32gb internal. What I was wondering is it possible to take a 64gig card partition it into 2 32gb partitions and have the phone be able to read those separately?
Thanks
Most android devices support 64gb microsd. Feel free to try it, btw is not the internal. Internal is 16gb for all of the device needs, os, webtop, etc and the external, the one you are mentioning.

Well I read like the default specs and it said it supports up to 32gb external but that was written I think before 64gb cards. I'm running cm7 so that may help too. Would just hate to spend the money if I put it in and it only recognizes 32 lol.

SD Card problems

I just received my 32 GB micro SD and I'm gonna put it in my note. I had a 16Gb. When I put in the 32gb it slowed down and my phone would freeze more often. I am running Liquid Smooth Jelly Bean 4.1.2 RC8. Ima format the 32gb so it can fresh it out. Should I reflash my ROM since I've upgraded the storage?

Did you move any system function or apps onto your ad card? I would put in the 32 and format and partition it, then take everything off the 16 and put it on the 32. Then report back your findings.
BTW- did you buy the same class card?

Now that I'm thinking about it, a rom re flash couldn't hurt.

Yeah I bought the same class SD card, and all I transfered was my music and pictures. I formated the 32gb already and transfered all my files. I'm thinking just to reflash it just if anything

I never said it would help, I said it couldn't hurt. And since the OP's post wasn't getting much love I figured I would add my 2 cents.

format the card to FAT32 file structure,(PC with card adapter) and give it a go in the phone....g
Had one of my 32gb micro's crap out on me today. Of course it was my more valuable to me card. Popped it my laptop to grab some files for a new Novena flash only to get a "must be formatted." Fired up testdisk 6.13 to have a peek at the partition before panic set in, just to find it detected as 32mb. Was a genuine Sandisk. Not impressed. Can't for the life me get the partition repaired. I'm fine with taking the data loss now, but can't get it to format. Going to try HP Drive Key Boot Utility once I borrow someone's WiFi in the a.m.

i read a thread here in the forums, cant post the link though, "sd card becomes lil slower when the memory is almost full or completely full..
btw go for class 10 which gives 10Mb/s r/w speed...class 2 is very slow...
so even if the memory card is 8gb class 10 it will show some performance..but 32gb class4 will be fine..but at some times u will feel it has become rather slow.." i didnt see if you mentioned what class the SD card was. hope this helps a little.
My genuine 32GB SanDisk MicroSDHC UHS-1 Class 10 card did the same thing almost immediately after I got it in Septemeber. It eventually died after two months of use. SanDisk RMA'd it, and I'm waiting for the replacement. I'm expecting that the replacement will also die... I think our phones is killing these SanDisk UHS-1 cards.
Mine was a week shy of a year old. Be my last SanDisk. Doubt it's our Notes doing it though. Had mine in and out of a Captivate, S2, Note dozens of times.

Just lost another 32 GB card so now I'm starting to wonder if it really is my phone killing them. Had a media ejected... message pop up after a reboot. History after that.

This thread is defeinetly interesting. I originally had a patriot 16GB class 10 (excellent card BTW), as I began to run out of storage I decided to buy this sandisk ultra 32GB HC1 supposebly read/write speeds are better than class 10? Wrong.. my speeds dropped even with tinkering with system tuner/ SD settings didn't seem to help much.. I have screenshots somewhere of both cards tested and compared.Well besides that One month goes by and my device kept trying to randomly read and scan the card as if I just turned the phone on? Games and apps wouldn't start saying app not installed? Eventually the card crapped out asking for a reformat, luckily I backed up the card before it crashed. I sent it back to Sandisk they RMA'ed me a second one I'm using now.. going on two weeks no issues so far. I'm thinking maybe there's a bad lot out there?

I have been using a Transcend 32gb class 10 card with no issues, almost a year now. Give them a try.

General question

After school today I'll be going to the post office to pick up my GS3, and I had a few questions. I purchased one with 16 gigabytes of storage instead of 32; can I take the SD card from my Rezound and add it to the S3 for 32 gigabytes of storage instead? I'm looking to sell my Rezound to help offset the price from the S3 and want to make sure that If I take the SD card from my Rezound and then sell it that it won't cause problems. Any advice would be fantastic.

Does the GS3 have a micro SD slot? If so, sure. Pop it in.
Removing your sd from your rezound won't cause problems but may lower the price you'd get for it. The phone is a lot less attractive with only 12 or so GB of storage without an SD card.
I went from a rezound to gs3 just like u and took the sdcard from my rezound and popped it in the gs3 with no problems. U don't even have to format it. Just pop it in and ur good to go.
