well, with the original 8gb from the stock, my phone can read every music or video from it, but when i tried with the 32gb, it only reads some, like 50% of the music can play, and the rest is error....
any ideas?
thanks
Probably a fake does it got brand?

Have you tried to format it, and re-write the files (music, videos, etc.) once again?
i tried several times like that... using different type of methods still not working =.=
BUMP!!!!!!
Before we try to troubleshoot, let us make sure you got a proper product from reliable sources.
Reasons to why we want to know this are:
Lately there have been quite many reports on fake memory cards, specially MicroSD. There are many 32 Gigabyte cards out there that are not of the size as the label says they are, in fact, many of these fake cards are only 50% or 25% of the labeled size.
On top of that, they have been specially manipulated on a software level to appear as 32 gigabyte in Windows and other operating systems, when they in fact are not.
With this in mind, please tell us:
* From who or where did you buy this memory? A reliable dealer?
* Have you checked the manufacturers website about on how to spot fake cards? (Yes, manufacturers are aware of this problem and most of them have special information pages about this global problem)
* What class (speed) does the memory in question have? (There are no, as far as I know, no 32 gigabyte memories above class 4. So if it is of a higher class, it's probably a fake. I can be wrong.)
If you are certain that the memory in question is a real product. Try the following utility from the sdcard association:
http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/
If that doesn't work, your memory card reader might be at fault (some readers are not fully SDHC compatible, even if they say they are)
Try another one you know for sure works 100% with the SDHC standard.
If that doesn't work either: Broken memory. Reclaim warranty on it and have it replaced.

Has anyone tried the 4gb minisd on the Wizard, yet? I'm thinking about gettin 1 but I'm don't know if the Wizard/tmo mda will support it or see the entire 4gb.
I found this while looking for a 4gb sd to buy, and now i will just stick with the 2gb i have in fear of this same thing happening after i buy one for my 8125
i knowits not a Wizard, but still...

It is a scam. Read the feedback. These are hacked 2GB and smaller cards that have been formatted to be 4GB, but that greatly shortens their shelf life, and in most cases they'll die within a few months, if they last that long.
How do you hack something so freakin small?
I'm not positive, but I think it says in the manual (8125) that it will only recognize up to 2GB ... Probably will change with later updates...just as the earlier PCz would only recognize so much RAM and HDD space until their CMOS was updated.
It may be a hardware limit. I'm from the DRAM side of things, so I'm not exactly certain how flash is addressed, but I do know that with DRAM, most computers are limited by the physical number of address drivers that are built into the chipset. Just looking at a Mini-SD, I'd guess that it's a serial device, so maybe it's just a matter of a firmware upgrade to change the bit size of the address data - or maybe it's something completely different and I have no idea what I'm talking about (it wouldn't be the first time!)
-d-
I've never heard of a 4GB miniSD, before this post. (I have seen 4GB SD cards advertised, could there be a confusion with that?)
If there are 4GB miniSD cards available, could someone post a link to them?
Here is a link :
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270025489570
much more expensive than 2 2GB cards though ... I'll need to wait a little bit to get a cheaper one for my (future) Wizard (I'm waiting for the one I've just bought on ebay )
beware!!! their are fake sd cards on ebay!!! Usually the cheap ones are the fake ones! :evil:
They are also on Amazon.com for $146. They claim that they have them in stock and others have mentioned that the picture of the card has been edited--the number 4 that is. I am somewhat tempted to try it if Amazon will back me.
here is a story of a ripp-off on ebay : http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/mall/76525-4gb-minisd-card.html
4g miniSD that works
I have purchased a 4G miniSD from http://www.emartbuy.co.uk/index.php.
It works. There is a small problem with access time, i.e. it takes longer to write to and access the card than the 2G did, but apart from that there are no issues.
All I did was use a card reader and copy everything from the 2G card to the 4G card, put it in the device and away it went, like nothing had changed. Except now there is twice the storage. YAY. The card is brandless and is probably a reflashed card, but I don't care because it works for me.
I have an Imate KJAM.
I have puchased on from Moby memory,

Is there a final word on the compatability of the Hermes with 4 and 8 micro sdhc cards
mpc
I have emailed HTC about this. I also dropped in a question about when they plan on releasing a ROM for the TyTN (rolls on the floor laughing.....deliberatly didnt use the acronym).
According to the FAQ on thier site there is a limitation in the OS :
What is the maximum SD card size compatible with my device?
For Win CE 2003 =>General for SDIO is 1GB.
For WM 5.0 => SD Card is 4GB and Mini-SD is 12GB

also they claim there is no limitation whatsoever?!? But this could be for ANY of thier devices so i emailed them anyway:
Does my device have a maximum size limit for CF/SD cards?
No, as long as it's a standardized memory card (SD or CF) and a device is designed according to those standards then it will accept the card.
EDIT:: DO NOT TAKE THIS AS PROOF OF SDHC COMPATABILITY (mrvanx)

Its a shame nobody has tried (or atleast posted thier findings), but hopefully a reply from HTC would help us out. Cant see why they would withold this info.

Responce from HTC
It looks like it is simply a restriction in the drivers by MS according to HTC:
Dear Sir,
I am afraid to say the SDHC memory cards are unsupported by any of our handsets, to offer support for these memory cards Microsoft will need to update the drivers for Windows Mobile 5.0. We have tested our handsets with standard 2GB miniSD cards which work fine.
Thank you for your enquiry, Should you have any other problem, please do not hesitate to call us. Your Local number can be found at

What does that say??
SDHC support has been available for quite some time now if the presence of an SDHC driver in the registry is anything to go on (I've seen it in the AKU2 ROMS). However whether it works or not is a mystery waiting to be solved....
With the "0" setting i did not loose my card today after 4h of operation...
That is for a 2GB Sandisk (not SDHC)
But anyway on SDHC:
I have gathered the following info on the net:
---------
SDHC (Secure Digital High-Capacity) cards are flash memory cards with a minimum capacity of 4GB (gigabytes). SDHC cards provide removable memory for compatible digital devices including cameras, camcorders, PDAs, MP3 players and more. Secure Digital refers to a specific format within the flash card market. SDHC cards are designed for devices that are compatible with the SDHC 2.00 specification. Products designed exclusively to support previous SD specifications 1.0 and 1.1 will not be able to utilize SDHC cards.
The growing demand for high-capacity flash memory springs partially from the increasing use of high-definition video and high-resolution digital photography. SDHC cards meet the challenge of these demanding products not only by providing ample storage but also by introducing a new feature: classifications of data transfer speed (DTS). Consumers can get the best performance value out of their digital products by using flash memory cards that support the device's highest standards for data transfer speed. The SDHC specification 2.00 calls for cards to be classified according to the minimal sustained DTS as follows:
* Class 2: minimum sustained DTS of 2MB/sec
* Class 4: minimum sustained DTS of 4MB/sec
* Class 6: minimum sustained DTS of 6MB/sec
SDHC cards are classified to guarantee a specific sustained DTS. This potentially saves consumers money, as flash cards are priced not only according to capacity, but also to speed. For example, if a product's maximum DTS is 2MB/sec, dishing out extra cash for Class 4 or Class 6 SDHC cards would be a waste of money. Conversely, devices that can utilize the 4MB/sec or 6MB/sec DTR will perform significantly better with Class 4 or Class 6 SDHC cards, respectively.
Secure Digital was forced to create a new specification for SDHC cards when the previous specification topped out at a capacity of 2GB. This occurred previously when SD cards hit the 512MB wall. The new 2.00 specification should last a bit longer, as it allows SDHC cards to reach a maximum capacity of 32GB. Secure Digital is so-named because of its ability to protect copyright content through digital rights management or DRM. Because of this, it is a favored flash memory format in the audiovisual industry.
SDHC cards are about the size of a postage stamp. Insiders expect them to be available through several different manufacturers by summer 2006, and prices will vary. Before purchasing, be sure your device is compatible. There are several card formats available on the market, and devices are proprietary. If a device manual does not list SDHC cards, or state it is "SD specification 2.00 compatible," the device cannot utilize these cards.
--------------
This info does not seem fully accurate as I saw on the web a 8GM Micro SDHC...
Anyway we should validate what class the Hermes support, but I would think that Class 2 may be the the maximum speed for this device?
We should investigate further.
Is the pinout for SDHC card THE SAME as SD?
I remember I've read somewhere that pin count is greater.
I'll search on wikipedia
Did some searching, found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-284628.html
the SDHC driver is indeed in the active driver section in the registry in our devices, but as the last post indicates, it's in microsoft's terms and doesn't stand for what we are looking for.
So in short, really pitty, but it looks like we're out of luck.
Edit: Before anyone says it: i KNOW it's a trinity thread, but there's a Hermes user in there!

Its nice to see people that get info after do stupid things like buy a 4GB SDHC...
Its Sad to have a great Machine without this capacity on cards...

I am currently running a 8GB SDHC Micro card.
Mate, if you updated your rom with a cooked rom you wouldn't need the patch as most wm06 and ALL wm6.1 roms are already sdhc compliant.
Just make sure you have Hard SPL V7 installed before upgrading so if something bad happens you at least have a chance to fix it...
Cheers...
Well I read my post and...
Absolutely right Ultramag has the reason!!!!!
SDHC microSd can be read on HERMES the last word to say it is yessss as ultrmag said the newer BUILDS ROM has the patch!!!
So enjoy your 8gb MicroSDHC and we will wait for 16 GB hahahaha i hope so...

how does the sliding even work?
i've been sliding back and forth, and i keep getting the same memory.
I know it's hacked, because it says the card is full at 600mb, when it's a 2gb card.
Thanks
I bought 4gb nonHC sd mini - after filling cca 1,5gb it erased 90% of data stored. It was 2gb card formatted as 4GB - common fraud (I didn't know about that kind of fraud at that time.)
I couldn't even restore them via sector-by-sector scanning software. I've run a test utility and it reported my card as faulty. I threw it away - I didn't want that card anymore. Non-realiable card is too much risk for me.
I bought new card (2gb) kingston so I know I won't have to worry if it will crash or something.
found some thrown in the garage...
Four years ago I chucked these hacked SD cards in the garage to hide in a pile of books. Finally dug them out, and am running a "last chance" test on them. I bough them, one from China, and another from a USA seller. I contacted the USA seller, and they send another. It was also bad. Tossed into the garage as no repair solution existed for SD media hacks. Now I see it's RDiskUtility. Will try it anr eport findings along with findings on the new mp3 players
I just bought some MP3 device/cameras from one china seller, one 2 GB unit for $5, the other, a 16GB unit for $6. The prices that I won them at tell me that they may not be fully true to their size.
My primary test is simple, I copy tracks from DVDs I have stored on my theater player's wifi drive. I check for corrupted tracks, which gives me a rough litmus test. If it's not true to size, I'll have to do some futher work.
Based on my experience with cheap Chi-cameras, picture quality of the camera is expected to be bad. Will post full data once I get them.
I bought a 16 gb card from ebay seller cointasdeals.

when i get home i will try to format my card as a lower size and hope that it works. I spoke to my local police and they said that they could not do anything.
Got to get authentic ones
I suggest buy orig memcards. A lot of rigged ones are out in the market. You may buy it for a cheap deal but you may have trouble in the days to come. Quality is important. It can save us more money.

Hi all,
I have the 10.1 2014 tab pro and I want to get a new SD card. I know from my brief reading through these forums that not all SD cards will work and I dont know enough to really understand what is what (like what does "SDHC Tf Class 10" mean?). If anyone knows what it is that I need to look for before buying one so that it will work fine with my tablet please post here.
ps I am using these primarily to store books and documents, not videos or games or anything that really takes a massive workload or speed requirement.
pps Im not sure if this matters, but I am running stock unrooted
TIA
Most any newly purchased MicroSD card should do. What did you read won't work? Below Class 10 cards might not work for some high speed functions (like video), but I believe all should work for casual use like you describe.
SDHC versus SDXC mainly refers to the capacity of the card, which you are probably going to be looking at separately (in GB) anyway, so it really doesn't matter. Basically, the original SD standard (also called SDSC) was limited to 2 (4?) GB. SDHC increased the capacity up to 32 GB, and anything higher than that is SDXC by definition. There are some other minor differences, but probably nothing you really need to worry much about.
Class (8, 10, etc.) refers to the read/write speed; but you may also see a UHS speed classification (U1, U3) also. Even though you are not talking about high speed demand tasks, I'd still tend toward Class 10 or U1 cards. Just in case you change your mind about what you want to save to the card; and many cards meet Class 10 or U1, anyway. For the few cards that you can find with lower speed class, you might save $10, so its probably not even worth it to consider lower speed class cards.
The following Wiki articles goes into a lot more detail about the specs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital
Out of all this, I'd be more worried about brand, or getting a counterfeit product. Some cheap or off-brand cards seem to fail more frequently than the big names. Folks all have their favorites, and may argue that you are just paying more for the brand. But I've bought several Sandisk cards, and never had any issues (and heard similar from other users on XDA).
I'd also stick to a reputable seller (Newegg, Amazon, etc.) as places like eBay are awash with counterfeit SD cards. Its so easy to relabel a card as a higher capacity (i. e. take a 32 GB card and label it as 128 GB, etc.) and even spoof the device to read it as the "fake" capacity, than charge much more $$$.
I am using one of these on my TabPRO:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-MicroSDHC-Memory-without-adapter/dp/B00AYC6V2U
Works fine on all my Android devices.
And to really leverage it outside of Google Apps and pre-installed items you need to root and enable write to the SD card, unfortunately. (Unless I'm missing something.)
Thanks, I really appreciate that info on what all those terms mean. However, right now I am using a 32gb Sandisk ultra, and my data keeps getting corrupted, apps cant find it, showing up empty on every file explorer I try.... Therefore I thought since Sandisk is legit (I bought it at costco so its real Sandisk) I figured there must be some issue with the type of card.

I had similar issues with a genuine SanDisk card in my S3 (couldn't access it in recovery either), just showed a bunch random characters instead of file names etc), swapped it to a different brand (I got a genuine Sammy one because it was a bargain at the time) and that solved the problem....
So I'm wondering if anyone has tried. I have a 256GB card already that works fine but I'm running out of space (Yes I'm carrying quite a lot of music with me and yes I do see it as a good thing) my music collection is bigger than 256GB and would like to carry more so that's why I asking.
I know the max is 256GB but I don't know if that's down to hardware (and card slot) or what
No one?
From my knowledge it's only up to 256, so if you get a 512, it may not work. Sorry haven't tried it yet, but as per the spec of poco it's only up to 256. I had a different phone before, a galaxy a8 2018 which suppprted up to 256 as well and when i tried my friend's 512gb it didn't recognize it, so most likely same will happen with the poco

you can use a 512gb sd card, but as soon you reach the 256gb full, files will get damaged and sd will fail to be recognized by the phone...

I would also have like to use a 512GB card. Does anyone know why this limitation exists? Is it a hardware constraint with the card reader, or a firmware or O/S constraint? I naively thought that SDXC compatibility would allow anything up to 2TB, but it's clearly not as simple as that.

That was definitely not my experience with other phones. Usually cards with higher than phone rated capacity work just fine.
From my understanding when phone manufacturers say up to 256 gb SD card supported they are saying that cause at that point of time that's the highest SD card available in the market. Most phones that can support 256gb will support higher capacities too.

Interesting video - thanks. So in theory a FAT32-formatted 512Gb SD card should be supported by any phone that supports FAT32 and SDXC? It's a shame there isn't a more recent video which tries 512GB cards in current smartphones.
In older days, when external storage limited size was 32Gb some Motorola's users (including me with Rokr Z6) used to divide 64Gb as two 32Gb mountable partitions.
You can try it too.

lucky you, or maybe i was using cheap cards on cheap phones ?
I have a 512Gb Huawei memory card on my Poco F1 working fine, I haven't reached the 256Gb capacity because I've just received today. But so far so good ?
Lexar 512GB 633x (black / blue) from Aliexpress is working fine. At the moment 217GB is filled on the card.
(AOSP Lineage 16)
Sir,
Sir,
I don't know if you have found an answer to your question as of yet but I have. I've purchased several different 512gb cards knowing that I had some use for them somewhere. The fact is that the Poco F1 does see 512 gigabytes... And then down the rabbit hole we go. After about 20 to 30 minutes of you installing the card and moving over all kinds of information, the Poco F1 begins to forget things. That's the only way I know how to put it. all the sudden some of the stuff that you have moved over to the card is not reachable even though you still see some of the shortcuts or some of the things that point to it depending on what program you're using and the next thing you know after about an hour and a half two hours it also can't find those either and then some of the program start to crash. These are not programs that I have you some third-party where to move over to the card at all. I didn't move over any software to the card I'm just talkin about moving over some of the things that it was to the card. and then you'll notice after a few more hours that the card is unreadable. The way that you can fix this is to go ahead and put it into any computer and I used a program called mini it's a freeware program to recover the lost partition. then I put it right back in the phone and at first the phone fights with and everything else but you can get it to look at it and see it again only to repeat the exact same problem over and over and over again. The problem seems to be exacerbated if you were to use a torrent program to save data to the driver's if it was a download folder from multiple sources at once. I tried everything I could. I even tempted fate a little bit by saying if I could use aparted the cell phone version in order to partition the drive into two different types of partitions one of them course being the f2fs partition I was trying to see if I could successfully divide the memory card into two partitions so that the computer or cell phone would see them as two separate entities does relieving the problem of it seeing larger than 256. this was not successful though I cannot promise that I did everything correctly. I would greatly appreciate any information you happen to have about this. I have several of these 512gb cards and some of which I saved a lot of money on some of which I spend a lot of money on but they all seem to operate the exact same with the exact same problem. if you had any suggestions on how to add that to a Asus tablet that I'm now having the exact same problem with and much lower micro SD card total capacity sizes than the Poco F1 s I would greatly appreciate that too. The Asus laptop that I'm dealing with is an Asus e203m and it comes with 32GB of real special fast memory that uses hard drive and so you can see we're picking this up for almost nothing is a great deal provided that you're a little tech-savvy can work with clouds quite a bit and hopefully find the solution to the problem and adding a 500 gigabyte micro SD card. The problem is that you can't partition those the way that you'd like or you think that you could. but for me I really love computers and love to turn branches on the weekend so to speak. I'd also love to learn anyting you might be willing to share about partitioning and the like.I know that windows will only see the first partition of a microSD card. but then who wants to be limited to just Windows anyway.

So I'm wondering if anyone has tried. I have a 256GB card already that works fine but I'm running out of space (Yes I'm carrying quite a lot of music with me and yes I do see it as a good thing) my music collection is bigger than 256GB and would like to carry more so that's why I asking.
I know the max is 256GB but I don't know if that's down to hardware (and card slot) or what

I have Samsung Evo Select 512 gigs and been using it since 6 months.
I have it full almost 90-95%+ full everytime as i load a lot of movies in it. During the time of writing it was 97% full.
It is formatted to exfat and is working perfectly.
There is no data loss or anything like that after 256 gigs.
I hope this answers all your questions.
If you have any more questions just let me know.
