Hey guys! I kinda need some help here.
Here's the deal. I just bought a 16GB Kingston Micro HC 4 SDcard for my SE MiniPro U20i on 2.0.A.0.504, intending to install app2sd, following this guide.
Didn't go well at all.
The phone was already rooted, so I prepared both the partitions needed, and with USB debug on,i started the process, but it halted whith some kind of error, different from the one expected but i thought it had worked. It didn't.
The phone started rebooting frequently and saying the sdcard was corrupt. I tryed a different 16GB sdcard, same story... i flashed the phone in two different ways, used a different SIM card and nothing worked.
But then, I tryed the sd card on a X10 mini E10i and it worked perfectly! Oh well.
I just installed app2sd on my old 4GB sdcard in the U20i, and it's working. I'm fresh out of ideas as of why my phone isn't supporting the 16 GB sdcard.
Does anyone have an Idea?
Thank you all

I have an x10 mini pro with f/w 1.2.A.1.174. Can anyone please tell me if my cell phone can run a 32 gb microSDHC card ? I currently have an 8 gb microSDHC card and it runs without any problems.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I believe it won't. u20i only supports 16 gb
Thanks pabling19. I will try to check it out with my friend.
It supports 16 GB max. Doesnt recognize if you insert 32 GB card. I've tried once.

Ok. Thanks li_boud.
Could you not partition the card?

i dont think that 32gb Sdhc microSD is created by Sony, Kingston if it was then definitely supported coz i myself use 16gb microSD card
Just a quick question, when you install a new microsd, do you factory restore your phone or you can just copy everything from the old to new? Because I'm having problems when I installed a new microSD, my phone restarts frantically whenever I mount/unmount when I'm connected to a pc

I just copied the contents of the original card onto my new 16gb one and didn't have any problems.

Maybe it's better to format the card from your phone, then copy the content of your old SD card.
I asked se support and waiting for answer
I formatted my new card with normal pc formatting tool, put it into phone and it ran no problem.. I didnt have any app installed to card or anything so it was just photos music and stuff aplications create there..
I'm happy with the 8Gb card, for a phone that small.

but it dosent tell anything about HC cards.. i just bought a 32GB microsdhc card. but it tells me its damaged. i searched around on the web and dident really find anything usefull.. some1 tells they can use it, and some say they cant..
but i tryed to formate it in phone couple times, with no luck.. then i tried to formate with my default formate tool on my xp pc. formatet it to FAT32. only option i had. FAT32 or exFAT..
after formate with pc i set it in the phone again. and it said its damaged twice then miraculously it mounted it. :O.
i mounted the phone with usb cable and copied everything from old card to it. (Old card 2 Gigs)
apperently it seems to work.. i tryed also to reboot and it mounted the 32GB Sandisk MicroSD HC card..
lets see how long it gonna work..
when i was witing this it rebooted. not sure if its the cards fault. never rebooted b4. hmm
gonna get back about that.
(sorry for the weird links. cant put links yet.. need to write 8 posts.)
Ps. I have the ¨Old¨ X10 min pro with Custom rom. CM7 v20.

Mine certainly does. Kingston 32GB class 10 works like a charm.
x10 mini pro (u20): 16gb
mini pro (sk17): 32gb
They deleted X10 mini pro page, it did said 32 gb for it, stop saying that it's 16 gb only.
when i inserted 32gb in mini pro it worked very very hard.but 16gb is very very good.
Hi,
I just bought a class 10 16gb off ebay. do class 10's not work? Or do I have to put certain files on the microsd to work? When I put it in the phone it just says there is no microsd but it works fine in my computer.
thanks
same thing happened with me as well. i had 8 gb micro sd card that came up with the phone.
yesterday i used it to install windows 7 on my acer aspire one d250 netbook. after that i formatted it and inserted into phone, it said "memory card removed, insert new one" though the computer was able to read it.
i reformatted it with fat32 and again inserted into myphone, same result
again with ntfs and same result(using mini tool partition wizard)
today also i kept playing with my sd card
just a couple of minutes ago i formatted my sd card with fat32
and then i right clicked my sd card in mini tool partition wizard>>>>> then i clicked "modify">>>>>>then clicked on "change partition type id"
>>>>>> i changed it to "0*06 fat16,greater than 32 mb" >>>>>>>and then yes
and guess what now my phone can read my sd card
and don't forget to apply changes on the left hand side on mini tool partition wizard
hope it helps
cheers
Yes .... i am not crazy.... both my 8gb and 2gb are not being recognized on x10i with baseband 54 or is it ... the xrecovery mod [Cyanogen6.1.3]gingerbread[v01]
either way i am going to downgrade to baseband 46 and do a full SEUS repair...
I would rather a working phone over the prettiest... left baseband 54 and did the SEUS repair tingy... and voila... it recognizes the card again ...HIP HIP HORRAY

this method worked for me!
Class 10 works fine X10a stock or Bitsnacker. Problems recognising in CM ROMs. Used MiniTool (freeware; http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html) to copy MicroSD to HDD (or empty USB) then Formatted Micro ON THE PHONE (Settings-SDcard...-unmount-Format) Mount on PC, then copy everything back to SD gets me recogn. and no data loss.....

I did that but the microSD card still not recognized. When I turned on my phone, it said that I had to format my card. But when I pressed OK, it said that "Formatting failed".
What should I do next?

one question that i really cant understand..
how wud you hit the format button on your phone when it cant detect any sd card.. i really dont understand.. please be specific.. thanks..
reflash 2.1
i used other sdcard then i reflash my phone back to 2.1 using update service.. and it works.. and yehey, it reads my old sdcard.. tnx to all
in some case the problem of the sdcard that no appear or not can be readed is a problem of the manufacturer, in my casi I'm using a Patriot 32 GB Class 10, the only problem may be in one time the sd locked and i can't write or do anything on it but i format it and that fixed

Nice work bro! thank you!! worked for me!!!! yey!! ^_^
I have a SE Xperia X10 with 8 GB SD Card. Recently I updated version 2.1 to 2.3 through SE update and PC Companion. However, after this update the SD card is not recognized and "Storage" in "Settings" always shows "unavailable"
I tried formating the card on computer using a card reader. However even with FAT32 it is not working.
Please guide me and help me. Do I have to format the card with different file system? or is there a method to solve this problem.
Reformat with the formatter from sdcard.org. Android doesn't play well with our cards all the time. Remember to backup your card first.

Hi Everyone,
I have recently purchased a secondhand HTC Legend,
and a new Kingston 16GB Class 4 Micro SDHC Card.
Android 2.2 Froyo is Installed
(Blayo's Froyo Rom)
(I have a 256MB MicroSD & 4GB Micro SDHC Card that I have tested and they work fine.)
When I write to the SD Card, such as take a picture or download an app from the market, the phone says "SD Card Unexpectedly Removed".
I have tried:
Reformatting the SD Card on Windows and on the Phone via Clockworkmod recovery. (My Phone is Rooted)
Scanning the SD Card via Windows Error Checking
chkdsk via command prompt
Scanning for errors via Drive Restore Pro
Buying a new Sandisk 16GB Class 4 Micro SDHC Card - Same Error.
Is there anything else that I can do?
Any advice that can be given is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
dont be a fool it seems that its the rom's fault it might not support the file system of your sd cards.Dont keep buying new ones....just go back to your stock rom
Thank you for your reply.
I flashed the stock Froyo rom, but the problem still persisted.
After some more research I found that downgrading to 2.1 can resolve the issue, so I tried it and it did.
My only question now: Is there anyway to make this work in the stock Froyo rom?

Just delete & format all the partition of your sd card through minitool & create a fat32 partition as a whole. It will solve things
