Well, I got a new kingston 32gb microsd a while back. It's supported by the device (i've look about and know someone who has 30gb out of 32gb used in their x10)
Now the thing is, i have a few problems with it. It's not being recoginized by the phone! I had to format it when I first got it. Which took hours to do. It would only hold about 4gb of data I currently have on my phone, anything else would go on, then get deleted.
After another formatting, the phone doesn't recoginize it! Any ideas at all would be appericated. It's a 32GB Kingstom class4. I have searced about on these forums btw, and a few other Android and sony forums.
Also, how much of an improvment would I see with data2sd if I got this to work?
Thank you, Darren.
I had the exact card as u with similar issues. I only bought that brand cuz it was cheaper. Then i tried my sandisk again and no issues. I trust only sandisk and i use my 16 gig one. I believe my kingston fried itself. Go to www.amazon.com the 16 gig r very cheap i think now but the 32 r more. Sorry i cant find u a solution.

Big question is where you bought the card, you could have bought a fake that only holds 4gb even though it shows 32
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Could be a fake if you bought it from ebay, basically what the cons do is flash the card to display a higher size, a lot that have been circulated are the 32gigs that are flashed from 2gig cards. I've seen this complaint on a few forums now,the good news is you can download a program that can check if you have a fake card and also what the actual size is. You will have to google it though as I don't have the link, hope this helps

Hi everyone,
i am very frustated about my external sdcard.
When mounting it via USB on my pc and copying mp3s or images to it i only get ~500 kbps, even an mp3 album takes several minutes to copy?
Any ideas what might cause this slow speed?
Goddchen
For starters what class is your SD card and which brand, an awful lot of higher class cheaper cards do not perform as stated. Especially ones from ebay.

it this one from amazon:

wouldn't think that the no1 top selling card from amazon (directly ordered and shipped from amazon, not another company) would be crap?

What rom you got ? i had abnormal slow usb transfer on my Nexus one before , it was from nightly cyanogen mod , flashing different rom fixed it.
Oh and i don't have such problem on my SGS2 with samsung based roms. (did not try cyanogen )
Try reformatting the card in windows not on the phone
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
It depends on the card and how fragmented it is.
i will try formatting it under windows, thanks for the hint.
in fact i am currently on a CM7 nightly, but the problem was there even before i flashed CM7 (from litening rom which is samsung based).
there is only 2 gig of data on the card so far so i don't think there is big fragmentation on it already.
I have a 16gb class 10 bought from play.com and have never noticed the transfer speeds being particularly slow, however whenever i format my cards i use the Panasonic sd card formatter. A quick google should give you the software. I remember a lot of threads about the htc hero (my old phone) and the link between using the windows format tool and the write and or read speed being slow. You never know, It might be worth a try

Hi,
I have the oppurtunity to purchase a Tablet S for cheap. Anyone heard of such a model.
I do not see it on the Canadian SonyStyle site.

Ive never heard of a 8gb. 16 or 32 only.

I'd walk well away unless you can examine it beforehand. My 16gb tablet only report 8.92gb storage due to the way the memory is partitioned but it is still a 16gb tablet. Sony haven't made any announcements about a smaller capacity model. Anything smaller than 16 though would severely limit the utility of the device.

About to purchase the tmobile galaxy s 3 and ive noticed they come as a 16gb rom or a 32gb rom. Not sure if it is worth the extra $50 or not. What do you guys think? Not exatly sure what the benefit in the long run will be if so. Please explain if possible, thanks.
I don't think it's worth the extra $50. If you really want 32GB, you could just buy an external microSD card and stick it in (up to 64GB I believe). I got the 16GB phone and put in my 16GB microSD card which costs much less than $50 these days. Plus, you'd have do wait until they get the 32GB version of the phone.
I dont think its that necessary. You can expand with a microSD card up to 64GB, and you also get 50GB of DropBox storage when you buy the phone. Im just gonna get the 16GB White model when it comes out.
I'm noticias 100% sure in S3 case but usually internal memory is faster than external cards. You must consider it.

Even if it's true, it doesn't matter. I have a Class 6 64GB Sandisk card in there and just dropped 9 gigs of music onto my phone in a minute. You can buy a 64 gb card from newegg for around $40.

Can you link the $40 64gb card?
IF you have the need go head. IT all comes down to it.
In my case, I need the internal storage for 1080p videos, pictures, apps, data apps.
And then I use the microsd card for my 35GB music collection. (Yes, I like to go around with my entire music collection in my pocket)
So for me, my choice is 32GB Galaxy S 3 and a 64GB microSD card.
isn't $50 already a bargain for double the storage? last that i remember the phones were $100 more.

Prices appear to have gone up. Here's a link to the card I bought for $50. It's now $70. If you keep your eyes open I'm sure more deals will come your way.

the reason everyone is going bat**** over the SGSIII is because of the microSD slot. there's absolutely no reason for you to get a 32GB phone since you can pop in a 64GB microSD card if you needed more space. better question to ask yourself: what is the capacity of your current phone? if you maxed out, double the space and that's what you should be aiming for on the SGSIII. :good:
If you have to ask, do you think you need it?
I've a 64 GB µSD card whose limits I'm already reaching. $50 is a lot for 16 GB but it's not a question I need to answer.

For 50 bucks of u plan on keeping the phone for awhile id say get it.sucks when u think about or like ur paying 50 for a 16gb sd but when u consider 1st that its 16gb that u will never be able to expand to any other way and 2nd Apple would charge like 200 bucks for that extra space it makes the sting a lil easier to swallow.now of they made 256gb sd cards it would be a different story lol but since we are limited in how big of a sd card is available I'll take that extra 16 err 14....whatever ever formatting gb any day for 50 bones.nothing worst then running out of space

that's a CLASS 6 (SIX).
I plan on keeping mine for 2-3 years, so the more storage the better, so to me a 32gb phone with a 32-64gb sd card makes a lot of sense, but it really only matters what you want/need it for
I keep reading about i717 users installing 64GB memory cards into their phones i thought that the i717 would only support a 32GB card...someone please give me some definite info
i717 UCLF6+FJmod B4
64gb cards work fine from GB on up. In theory it would support even larger cards but a 129gb card would be too expensive for me when they first come out.
I installed a sandisk class 6 64gb card in my Note. It works flawlessly. Got it off Amazon Prime for $55 with free 2day shipping. This is what I did:
moved contents of 32gb card to desktop computer's hd
powered off
removed battery
removed 32gb card
inserted 64gb card
replaced battery
powered on
let the card format itself
moved contents of 32gb card from computer to new 64gb card
enjoy new roomier storage capacity
+1 I use the SanDisk 64GB card as well. No issues. I also formatted in the phone.
I also use a 64gb card with no problem.
What do you need a 64 for?
That is a **** load of memory for a phone haha. I mean I understand, I am trying to fill up my 32, I have like 7 left. I would have had less if my songs had not gotten all erased. But, I did have alot of adult stuff cause my ex loved watching that stuff on my phone haha, plus I loved to show it to my home girls, turned them hot like a kettle over an open flame But yes it works just gotta format it, checkout videos on youtube on how to do it if you have any trouble. Good luck brotha!
I had a lot of trouble with my 64 GB Sandisk. The phone (at the time a Flapjaxx ICS ROM) didn't like the exfat formatting it came with, but it also wasn't able to format it itself. I eventually formatted it as fat32 with a large enough block size and the phone is now happy with it.
I have a Sandisk 64g and works excellente

I am also having problems. I am in BlackStar VIII Rom its ICS but it detects it but it wont format it self. I also tried to formate it on my Mac but my Mac can't see it. Its on OS mountain lion. It does detect it though and does allow me to format. Tell me what block size did you use? Thanks

Hello everybody,
This is my first post at xda, please pardon if I have posted in the wrong section.
I own a Dell Streak 5.
I wanted to ask if the Dell Streak 5 is compatible with a Class 10 64GB MicroSD card?
If yes, I was thinking of expanding its memory to 128GB. (64GB Internal memory card + 64GB External memory card).
If it is possible, I will stick to this device rather than buying any other mobile.
PS: I was thinking of adding a Mugen's 4800mAh extended battery too.
So, anybody has any bad experience with Mugen? (Since, it's a chinese company )
no problem for streak 64gb + 64gb.. but it is more to advanced user... if you are newbie, you have to do a lot of homework first...
and yes mugen 4800 also supported.. so far as i see here...

I just saw your tutorial for a 16gb card and I think I'll be able to do that easily.
Thanks a lot!
Just watch out about the Mugen battery back, reviews were that the back is horrible and has flimsy plastic pegs that lock in underneath the phone and have broken off while inside the phone sometimes.
