hi everyone -
i wanted to ask, what's the max size microsd card that the european htc hero can take?
i have seen on differnet sites from 8GB up to 32GB.
i am running an 8GB card at the moment but is anyone running a 16 or 32gb one ok?
thanks!!
majority of people use the 8gb class 2 or higher, same with 16gb, but very few use 32gb... that's if you can get a hold of one.
thanks for that - but do 16 and 32GB cards actually work in the phone?? disregarding if they are hard to find or expensive
I have a 16gb class 6, works great.
cool thanks!
anyone tried a 32GB one yet?
cool thanks!

So anyone using a 32gb card in their gtab? I saw a thread about a 16gb class 10 from fry for a good deal, but seriously, a class 10? I'd be happy with a 32 class 4/6. I don't see the need for class 10 yet, but was wonderin what brand 32gb you guys using out there?
Links to where you bought would be great

I own this card and it works fine on the GTAB.

I thought the limit was 16GB. Now I need to pick up a 32!
32 Gig
I am a newbie and I am confused. I thought the listed memory limit was
32GB, which meant 16 internal and 16 external---so is the 32GB limit for the external, which means 16 internal and 32 external?

Yes until a bigger SD card comes out
wonder if there's a size limit for USB memory. I have 32gb soldered in place internally. Hope I don't run into trouble in the future when I bump that up to 64gb or even 128gb
Lets see you make a 32GB card work in an IPAD2.
Micro SDcard - What goes on it?
I'm sure this is a "stupid" question from a newbie...
Last week I installed VEGAn 5.1.1 to the internal SDcard successfully using the instructions (thank you), because at the time I didn't have a micro SDcard. Now I do.
Should I re-install everything (CWM and VEGAn) to the SDcard or leave the card available for something else?
If I leave the installations on the internal SDcard, what will the micro SDcard be used for?
Thanks for your patience!
I bought a class 2 32gb Kingston on ebay for $43. It worked fine for me.
External card erasures
Has anybody had any problems losing data on the external card? I'm installing some movies on a 16G external card, and I've lost the data several times now.
It appears to lose the data when I mount/unmount the internal card for PC access (i.e. when I cable to my computer for file transfer). It seems something in the mount/unmount of the internal card corrupts the external card. I suppose a workaround would be to always remove the external card before cabling, but I shouldn't have to do that, should I?
I'm running VEGAn B5.1 if it matters.

Yes, it is a known problem. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895340
I put all of my music onto the SD card, as well as copying my backups there. (I use titanium backup, which makes a copy into the /sdcard directory, and then I copy it to the external card manually)
I have loaded a bunch of apps on my machine, and am no where near using up the internal memory, so I keep all the apps there. The one thing I am not doing right now is connecting to my work exchange server. I get a lot of email attachments from that channel, so I may use the external card as storage for email attachments, but I do not really need to do that right now.

USB, probably not. I don't know for sure, but probably the limitation will be FAT32. I'm not aware of gTab has NTFS modules, so that's probably going to be the limit for USB, or perhaps there is a 48bit addressing built into the hardware/kernel, then approx 137GB is a limit. Maybe somebody could try to hook up a harddrive into USB and see. But as for the SD card, there is an SD spec.
SD max limit = 4GB
SDHC max limit = 32GB
SDXC max limit = 2TB
generally speaking while there is a 4GB SD card, the implementation of 4GB SD card is spotty at best and some require you to have certain format to work, otherwise the card sometime fail to read/write. So, you won't see much of it, 2GB SD usually be the norm. As far as SDXC goes, it's fairly new, some SDHC controller do support it, but many don't. The pin for all of them are the same so they are backward compatible. I would generally avoid choosing random 4GB SD or 32GB SDHC. Do your research extensively on those card otherwise they may not work w/ your device.

16 internal 32 external minimum 64gb best IT says that in the manual on line. Right now 64gbSDHC are not being made. The manufactures have reserved that for SDHX. I rooted mine to ClocWork and TNT lite added a class 10 32gb SDHC. Have also formatted a Seagate 500GB GO Flex HDD usb 2.0 to Fat 32 496 GB and I load my Movies that are converted to mpeg 3 so I can carry it to work on slow days. I did all this because the stock rom/root kept dropping files and losing apps. I attached a full size media keyboard from Dell that has 2 Usb ports and it works fine also. Mouse did not. It is all carried in a case with a keyboard I got from Amazon. I just LOVE IT.

Actually, that is a decent price for 32GB. Average retail is upwards of $60.
How much space are most people using up with all their apps. Do you feel the 16gb is adequate, or are you wishing you had gotten the 32 gb.
Nope have several apps and large games installed and i still have 10+ gigs left....music, backups, roms and all other downloads on the ext sd card...simple

Not yet but I do have a 64GB sd card stop it still hold me over for a while. Only used 17 GB on it. Going to leave for 3 weeks for training so I'm putting about 5 season's for shows on my phone so I hope it holds me up. Then I'll wish I had a 32GB phone

the price difference between the 16 & 32gb will buy a 64gb sd card, then you will have 80gb...so yea the 16gbwill have more than enough storage capacity for me.
With an sd its more than enough.
16 gb is fine for me, still have 9gb free and have a 32gb from my epic, definitely don't have any need for additional storage and I'm an audio/video podcast nut.
perfectly fine with 16gb. I just need to get an external one. I dont like to have tons of apps anyways. But the nandroid backups do take up alot of space
16 GB is more than adequate. get a 32 GB MicroSD and you will be getting the same Disc space as the high spec iPhone 4S.
16GB is fine for me same amount of space I had with my S2 that being said I do have a 64GB card installed.
I got the 16 GB one went an bought a 32 GB SDHC Class 10 SD card...so I'm good. I like the external storage for safety reasons....if you nuke your phone, you won't loose your pics and stuff, but beware, even SD cards go bad. I had one go and lost everything on it (lucky I backed it up a few weeks before) I use google plus to backup all my pics and box.com to backup my music and files.
Sorry for adding more to your question but I felt it was relevent.
Nope... Picked up a 64gb class 10 card for essentially the same price it it takes for the 32gb internal (much better deal).

I have a bunch of large games installed and still have 6gig free. If I need I can always get a 64gig card so 16 is enough the extra 16 on board really doesn't make much of a difference.

This. The 50 dollar difference gets you 16+64 vs just 32gb. Unless somehow you NEED that 96gb total instead of 80.
I am on AT&T so 16 had to be enough I bought a 64gig Class 10/UHS-1 sandisk mobile card, I can get my whole collection of music on there and some device backups and roms as well.
who knows what else we will be storing in the future? HD Video isn't small....
I probably would have done 16gb internal and 64gb card even if 32gb was available on AT&T.

I'm gonna be ordering the 32 GB and then getting either a 32GB or 64 GB sd card (anyone have recommendations on a good 64 GB one? class 10 of course). The only reason I'm shelling out the extra $50 for internal 16GB is apps. On my 32GB Tab (which has no sdcard slot) I use about 27 GB of stuff, and I don't keep much music or anything on the Tab, it's almost all (24 of 27 I believe offhand) apps. My current phone's 16 GB sdcard is almost always full (sometimes I flash by the seat of my pants w/o a nandroid because it won't fit... ), and I try to avoid the apps2sd stuff whenever possible for performance reasons, so I'm gonna max out the internal, since that can't be upgraded later. Who knows what size games will be here in another 6 months to a year On the G1 even the 4MB ish of Robo Defense was a commitment with limited size, I just want to future-proof as much as possible.
50gb dropbox+16gb internal+external....u need 32gb internal?
thanks for the useful info, looks like most people are satisfied with the 16GB model
I'm "satisfied" with the 16gb model, but honestly only bought it because I was too impatient to wait for the 32gb to come out. $50 more for double the internal space is not a big deal...I'm just really really impatient.
In any case, the 32gb class 10 micro SD card I am using should be plenty for the next year until I get another new phone.
Does the YG-P70 (US version) have a micro SD card inside it? I was thinking maybe upgrade the internal SD card capacity if it isn't too difficult. That will leave the external slot open if we really need more. I ordered a Samsung 32 gig microSD class 10 and it is the fastest card I have ever had (not easily found in most stores where I live). I bought it from amazon. I would have gottetn one on ebay but there are a lot of fake memory cards on ebay. You take a chance buying them on ebay unless you know the seller. If I could make that my internal card that would be very nice.

Yes, in a way. It is (simply put) built into the processor, so it is not removable. Your 32 gig will have to go in the external slot. However, there is a patch to make it look like your internal storage to android (swap the two), which you might want to check out.

The tablet has 8 gig internal memory and the max is quoted at 32gig.
Can I put a 32 gig micro SD card in?
I think you answered your own question there.
You can put a microSd up to 64GB. I suggest you to put a SanDisk microsdhc ultra. They are the best sd cards. Press Thanks if I helped you

64GB flash cards use a different formatting (exFat) which is supported only by a few phones only when using stock ROM, you may be able to find a custom ROM for your phone that does support exFat*
otherwise 32GB will indeed be the maximum usable for your phone*
Normally 32 gb one could be fat32 ( this format has a limit of 32 gb only )
Press thanks if I helped.
You can use blackhawk custom kernel that will support natively exfat

I bought a sandisk ultra 32gb "red & grey in colour" yesterday and i've had to take it out my tab 2.
My tab didnt want to read it.
When I opened up "my files" there was a icon for "Ext Sd" but when It opened there was nothing.
I put the card in my S3 mini "gt-i8190n" and it works great. I done a factory reset on my tab before trying to use card.
Dont know whats going wrong there .

Not just size but what about R/W speed??
using the GT 2- 7 inch - with cm 10.2 nightly build - with a 32 class 10 external micro sd card with Link2SD and folder mount- so that all apps are installed and run from the external storage. Works great! So I thought of changing out the 32GB for a 64GB. I know or think I know that I should opt for a class 10 device but what about read and write speeds - I would think this answer would depend on the tabs abilities as far as maximum rates go. I cant find anything that post the rates at which the tab can transfer data to the external microsd and was wondering if a microsd card could even outperform the tab as far as R/W. In other words the tab can fulfill any max R/W rates so go for the best!
Thanks
Hi, as far as i know the p3110 is hardware limited to 32 GB microsd. So 64Gb won't work properly. As speeds go, i can't really tell. My class 10 reads and writes at maximum speed ( bit lower than indicated, but same speed in other devices).

The Tab2 is not 'hardware' limited to 32gb. It has to do with what formats your kernel supports. If you have a recent kernel with exfat support you are set.

I have had 4 or 5 different micro sd cards in my tab 2 , From class 6 to Ultra, they all work fine if formatted correctly. I would suggest not using that auction site, there a lot of fake cards there. These tiny little cards don't have the best durability record. Of the 6-7 I have had, a couple have gone bad before a year, but some are used heavily and still work after a year. The price for the 64gb cards is still too high for me. I usually have 15 to 20 movies on my 32gb card.:good:
I have 32 gig micro sd on my tab, without problem!
Hello Guys
Had my Samsung Galaxy tab 2 7 (p3110) for over a year now running stock unrooted. One of the first things i did when i got it was grab myself a Sandisk Ultra 64gig SD card. Had to reformat the SD card before it would work. From memory i used a tool on my PC called mini partition tool to reformat it. Been working like a charm ever since.

Just dont forget to get a high class SD card such as class 4 if you will be reading from the extSDcard alot! it would be really helpfull,or if you will use it to boost RAM and such
For best results use a class 10 32 GB SD card and haven't tried it yet but it more might support 64 GB too to prevent slowdowns a class 10 one is the best
64gb SDXC
Hi. I ordered a 64gb sandisk ultra plus microSDXC card. I just want to know what I will have to do to make it compatible with my Tab 2 rooted on GB27 4.2.2. I couldn't get the SDHC as the site was sold out, so I ordered the SDXC. Am I going to have to format it through my PC? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
