[Q] Memory Card - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do I need a class 6 card?

You don't need it, but the phone can handle it and is fast with it.

Just want to check whether this phone can handle 32GB SD card.
as the specification on GSMArena showing that the phone can handle up-to 32GB

I was under the impression you can, if you want to spend the money on one.

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.

Does class 10 SD card boost my device?

Hi friends,
I want to buy a 32gb micro sd card but didn't decide to its class. As you know most of our sd cards have class 4 speed but i wonder if class 10 boosts my desire z. I think i will move all my apps to sd. Would you buy class 10 and pay more or class 4 and pay less?

Class 10 is pretty much overkill. I would go with class 4 or 6. The speed of the SD card is regulated which can be fixed by an app in the market called SD Card Speed Booster. My gallery used to take forever to load...if it loaded at all. Now it loads instantly.
keep in mind that class affects only write speed, not read speed

So it is better to buy class 4 one except of class 10...

class 10 is too much
I think 6 is enough for.
Even the difference between 4 and 6 class is pretty minimal in my own personal experience (a2sd & data++).

What micro SD should I get?

I take hundreds of photos and videos with my phone. Now that I've got more storage space in my drop box and turned on Camera Upload, I can clear out old media from my micro sd for new ones to take and the old ones would still be saved to my drop box.
What kind of micro sd (size and class#) would be best for this kind of use?

First of all, this threads needs more info abiut what you prefer.
Budget? You prefer speed over memory? Your phone etc.
Anyways.. i would recommend you go for a class 10 sd card .. size of which depends on you. You are a better judge for how much memory you require.

Try Transcend class 10 MicroSD Works perfect.

Do you happen to know if class 10 affects wireless upload speeds in any way?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Sandisk 32GB class 10 microSDHC. $23.99 from Amazon. I think the price has gone up slightly to $30, but that's still a great price for a regular price $100 card. They also have 64GB class 10 microSDHC cards as well although I can't recall the price.

It would if your upload speed is much much greater than the transter/write speed of your sd card.

Would you say that the transcend is true to its upload speeds as being a class 10? I read a couple reviews that it didn't seem much faster than like say, a class 6

Format it from your phone not with a computer
It can't be formatted when its not being recognized...even my ps3 isn't recognizing it...when I go into recovery and try to do anything I get an error in mounting card..which makes me think I have to change the cards partition from whatever it is now to fat32

did you tried another kernel to see if it has some problems
for me on few kernels on ics and gb the sd card made me few problems and my sd card is with 32 gb class 4 and is new so i tried some other kernels to see if it works and worked i had this problem sometimes on gb with djnoxd's kernel
Supposedly 32gb class 10 is supported. My 8gb class 6 works well. If your PC can't recognize it you may have a bad sd

I just bought this sdcard....its literally not even 4 hours old...I'm on stock kernel so I'll try the kernel switches and see what it does
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
after flashing the new kernel don't forget to format sd card in settings
Well let's hope the phone would recognize the card while in cwm recovery...it can't format a card if it doesn't detect it

I'm assuming the 16gb card I just purchased is a class 4
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
look on your sd card for a "c" letter with 4 in middle and look if you see the symbol
Yep its a class 4
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Even with the 8gb card..I sometimes had problems...I'd boot in to recovery and try to flash a zip and that error of not being able to mount would be there so I'd have to take the battery out and the card,blow the card and slot place than reboot into recovery and then it would work

Its annoying, this phone supposedly supports up to 32gb...it should be as easy as popping out the old one to replace a better one
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
maybe your slot card is damaged
If that were the case,than I wouldn't be able to use the 8gb card either...I think the 16gb card comes pre formatted on an exFAT partition and in order for any android phone to recognize it. It needs to be fat32 format...I also have problems detecting the 16gb card with the xmb of ps3...ps3 only recognizes fat32....if all of this is the case I need a good partitioning windows program. .this 16gb card is a brand new card
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Well...
I really think that the problem is with your sd card slot, because if you are saying that you had problems with the 8gb and the 16gb, also im telling you this because on my phone i tried a lot of sd cards, and i didn't have any trouble...
Also, my brand new sd card 16gb class 4, i didn't have to format it, i just put it on the phone, it was already formated fat32

i think i need a external sd card for my i777

any recommendations?
so,
i was recording videos using the phone. its video quality is so damn good.
but it takes so much space, so i had to delete few videos.
i only had 8 i think, each one of them is about 1 gb and such.
so, where can i buy a SD card for my phone?
and after I installed, where all my games from play store would be installed? on the phone or on the sd card?
and, is class 10 the best one?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
Yes, class 10 is the best.
You can buy on eBay.
There is a Samsung class 10 pretty good.
You can't install apps on external.
But you can move all your media to there.
Also a few roms support saving directly from camera to external.
