Hi, I have u20i with nAa kernel and MiniCM7-2.1.9 rom. When I flash via CWM MiniCM7-2.1.9 rom I already have 2gb sd card in phone. Right now I get 8gb and wanna swap them. What I need to do to do that?
P.S. 1.already try just copy all files from 2gb card to 8gb, after CM logo phone freeze.
2. With CMW try to format and partitionize 8gb sdcard like 512mb ext3 and 16mb swap, it show that partitionize in progress but nothing happens, pull out battery try again, still nothing.
3.With MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition set manually 7gb fat32, 500mb ext3 and 10mb swap, also phone freeze after CM logo.
4. Turn on phone with 2gb card, take it out, and put in formated fat32 8gb card, phone recognize card and I can do anything, but when try to reboot it freeze again after logo.
Thank you for your help.
I got a new 8gb sd card. I moved from 2gb to 8gb card.. Had no issues.. what I did is just copied all the files from the previous one to the new one n reboot the phone.. N it worked.

Hi all, I bought yesterday 32Gb Kingston Class 4 microSDHC card. Now my phone is very unstable with this memory. I mean, sometimes it can't mount it, sometimes it shows its empty, formatting almost hangs phone, some apps hang phone (apps on sd). Looks like the phone doesn't want to eat this big memory too well.
I already tried soft reset, and dalvik cache deleting. Didn't help.
microSD is formatted into Fat32 and 32Kb clusters in windows with HP Formatting tool.
If I try to reformat with phone, nothing seems to happen....
It can work perfectly for a 20min, but if I try to turn many apps on and off, it will reboot. After what it doesn't see apps on SD card. wtf? But after complete reboot, it'll work again for a some time.
I have 2.2 Android from elelinux.
If I use my old 2Gb card, everything works just great.
Any ideas?
P.S
What does this recovery mode SD card formatting? Maybe I should try this one?
I have ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.7. There are some interesting options like..
What ARE these?
1. Format Cache
2. Format SD card
3. Format sd-ext
4. Wipe Cache Partition
P.P.S LOL I can't turn off phone. It is rebooting always. Wtf?
32gb SD cards are not supported by the HTC Hero.
16gb max.

According to the HTC website, our Hero's should support 32GB.
But that's as far as my knowledge on your issue goes. Just ordered a 32GB Class 4 SanDisk card myself, so when its delivered (hopefully Friday) I'll let you know how it performs.
Just an update for you, mine came in the post yesterday and it seems to work fine with my phone. Loaded it with 20gb of music and it runs fine.
Yep should run fine with 32gb sd cart
i'm having many of the same issues with my 32gb. had a 16gb before, and all was well.
now the phone randomly goes back to charge only when i have it plugged into PC as disk drive. i'm having trouble making backups in recovery too as it says its randomly unreadable in the middle of backing up. also, and seemingly most frustrating, is it is refusing to actually transfer files from PC to SD. i will plug in as disk drive and move all files without issue. however, when i eject disk drive and switch back to charge only mode (or simply unplug), none of the files have actually been moved to my device. they are simply missing entirely when i open any file manager.
i've tried everything. formatting on device, formatting through W7 (quick and full), and formatting through the official sdcard.org tool. nothing helps.
Try this
If u have a linux PC, u will know about gparted, I guess.
Do this: boot to ur favourite linux distro. plug the sd card to ur pc using a card reader. open gparted. click tools and then click new partition table. it will wipe everything from the card.
once done, just setup the partitions as u want for fat, ext or whatever. i was having a htc tattoo troubling me with a 16GB card but now its okay.
I've been looking around but can't seem to find the answer to this. I have rooted my NT with a 4GB SDCard. I would like to switch to a larger card. Can I turn off my NT, remove the 4GB card. copy everything from the card to a 16 or 32 GB card, and then insert the new card and restart the NT?
If that won't work, how can I do this?
Thanks,
Bob
Turn off NT, remove the 4GB card. copy everything from the card to a 16 or 32 GB card. Must be working.
If your using this sdcard to boot from, you are probably going to have to make that partition bootable as well. Usually the windows partition abilities are pretty limited so you'll have to use one of those free partition tools out there.
I'm not booting from the SDCard - so does that mean i can change the card by simply copying all the files to the new card?
Bob
Yeah just copy everything from the 4gb card to the 32gb card and everything will work just fine
I'm using CM7 + S2E, in order to make applications even faster, I've bought a new Sandisk original 8GB card from the mobile ultra line, which suppose to be fast.
even when I tried to install s2e, I had some problems, but it all finally worked out. Now there is a different problem, it seems that if I need to download a big file the card shows it unexpectedly removed. for example I've tried to install Sygic navigation software and it needs to download about 180MB of data and after 40MB the card shows this error.
It happens also when transferring large files to the card though USB cable.
can the card be defect? is it time for a new ROM (would love CM9, but waiting for a stable version), is it a setting I could change? would love to hear any idea.
I've tried different SD card (kingston 4GB), try to copy in root, and formatted the phone and try to copy without s2e installed , increased cache read SD to 8M with SD booster - same results. any ideas?!
Problem solved with replacing the current 8GB mobile ultra Sandisk card (class 6) with an ADATA 16GB card Class 10. Everything works perfectly.
I had the same problem. I solved it by reformatting the fat partition with a smaller allocation unit size I believe. Don't remember what the magic number was off the top of my head though.

Dear Friends,
I currently have a 16GB memory card partitioned with a 2GB ext4 partition which is used by Link2SD. A couple of days ago I bought a SandDisk 32GB Class 4 memory card and partitioned it using MiniTool on Win 7 and created a 2 GB ext4 and the rest was FAT32.
I did it while the card was inserted into my Neo. Now, after reboot or so, the phone doesn't recognize the card.
What can be the reason behind this and could you provide any solution on this?
I would be very thankful to you. Thanks.
Try formatting using cwm recovery...
I formatted and partitioned my 32GB SD card several times, using MiniTool, with SD in phone. Never had any problems.
AFAIK both partitions should be primary. First FAT32, and second ext.

You would need a memory card reader for this. Put the memory card into card reader and then insert it into your pc. And format your memory card with allocation unit size as default. But your memory card will still remain partitioned.

no need not use a chip reader, i several time created 2nd partition on my 16GB micro SD SD card by connecting my phone into the PC. If you use "USB connectivity" as "Mass storage mode" we can mount SD into the PC and create another partition using minitool.
Try to create both partition FAT.

Thanks keekoo, the only thing that I may have missed would be that I did not make the ext partition primary. I am already partitioning and formatting the SD card as I type this with your advice. Hope it works.

THANKYOU SOO MUCH. This solution helped me get my xperia play's 16GB SD card mounting correctly. I had created the 2nd partition as logical instead of primary and I was wondering why it wasn't doing anything when putting it in my xperia.
I have been following several guides on how to partition my sd-card but everytime I end up with the phone looping at boot.
I have a xperia v with a 32 gb sd card. the card works but when I partition it to 2 new partitions the phone wont boot.
All help are welcome.

yes, when you using minitool partition wizard to create a new partition and dont forget to mark it as primary. then it can be recognized by your phone.
i brought micro sd card for my phone it has phone memory 500 mb sd card 2 gb cant remove it and i buyed 16 gb so i want to install apps on my phone to new 16 gb card so i cant do it when i want to change preferred install location here is only 1st phone storage and 2nd 2gb card so what do to install apps on 16 gb card?
P.S i can delete write files on 16 gb card
Are you saying your phone has 2GB internal memory or a 2GB removable SD card? If it's a removable card, all you need to do is copy all the files to a folder on your computer, put the 16GB card in your phone, format it, then copy everything back from the comp to phone.
If the 2GB memory is internal (noted as 'SD card' by the system in some devices), then by default apps are installed here and not on the external SD card (removable card). There are ways to do it though, but they are phone specific and depend on whether a dev has made such a method work for your phone.
