Hi,
I searched around but can't seem to find any help with why I can't flash ROMs from 32GB cards. I've tried it with a class 4 Topram card then after I returned it I tried again with a class 2 Sandisk . Everytime I load the bootscreen for it to search the root of the card for leoimg the screen just flashes and continues to bootscreen without finding the ROm file.

May I suggest you try a maximum size of 4GB microSD card and format it with FAT32.
I honestly couldn't reproduce the threads right now, but I seem to remember reading about this issue before, concerning both 8 and 16 GB cards - So it seems logical it would apply to 32 GB cards as well. I don't know whether this is related to memory addressing issues or some other limitation - FAT 32, perhaps? (please, someone enlighten us both if you know) but using a 2 or 4 GB Card prevents the problem from occuring altogether.
as above said, most 16gb cards don't work(only know one person who has said the successful y used a 16gb card) and many 8gb cards don't work, so its a safe bet that a 32 is not gonna work. 2gb seems to be the optimum size, but 4 should work too.
for me, i have a 512meg card i use on the very rare occasions i use sd.
well since I got my HD2 I've used its 16GB sandisk to flash ROMs to the phone and have never had an issue before but both 32Gb cards I've tried just don't seem to respond.
Thats rather strange.
Theoreticaly you should only be able to flash from SD cards. During booting a driver is loaded so that SD HC cards can be read by the phone.
i.e. everything non SD HC up to 4GB should work fine, everything SD HC above 4GB should not allow flashing.

My Sandisk 16GB SDHC card also works perfectly for flashing on the odd occasion that I use it for flashing that is
hmm, that is interesting, I can't flash from my sandisk 16gb, class 2. Not sure why others can.
I can flash from 8gb class2 and below though. I use a 2gb sandisk just for this purpose.
I today took out the SANDISK MicroSD card (16 G, type 2) from my Mozart and attempted to replace it with a similar SANDISK MicroSD card (32 G, type 2).
Well - the operation did not work! And I really wonder why? As soon as I put back in the 16 GB card, the phone worked without problems.
SANDISK MicroSD, 16 GB, type2 => Works perfectly
SANDISK MicroSD, 32 GB, type2 => No worky
Anyone with knowledge of any working MicroSD cards that can be recognized by the WP7/Mozart combination?
Thanks in advance.

I have a xperia x10a from AT&T running a generic android 2.3.3 os (since AT&T will not allow anything past 2.1) and it is rooted as well. I have a 32GB micro SD card class 4 that is unbranded. The SD card works great in my computer but will not recognize in the phone. I have tried reformatting the card but it still will not see it. Any ideas?
Have you tried reformat it in phone? Even some no-name sdcard couldnt be recognised in some phones...
I have 32GB Lexar class 10 card and without problems.
My note is not seeing my 16Gig micro SDHC card...
It worked before, then I switched it out (with a 4Gig card) to do some file maintenance on it on my laptop. Now neither will read it. Any ideas on how to restore the 16Gig card (reformat or something)?
Thanks
