Saw a post about the micro SIM and got me thinking. Do they come with a micro SD card? Its been a while since I bought a phone so I'm not sure if they're still doing that.

I can tell you that the AT&T models don't come with a micro SD. I'm sure it's the same across the board.

No need to include a micro sd with the internal memory. My Inspire, for example did come with one, but only because there was very little internal memory.
I'm assuming you mean because of the varying internal storage. My DX has 16 GB internal and still came with an SD card. Only reason I asked. I didn't think twice about it before ordering my class 10 32GB lol.

Even if they included a Micro SD card it would probably be a small one like 5gigs.
I got a class 10 64gig from bestbuy when they had the sale on the class 6s but back ordered and they shipped a class 10 to me instead .

No everything is internal storage. I've heard that the internal storage is pretty fast so unless you are gonna buy a class 10 you might be better paying for more internal storage too. I didn't have that option on ATT. However I bought the Samsung 32gb class 10 card. Check slick deals, they were 29 shipped from beach camera on ebay. I was going to be extremely picky on who I get my sd card from but they have thousands of flawless reviews and seem to be a great vendor, and it wasn't one of those too good to be true prices, so I bit considering that was the card I wanted anyway. I'll test the speeds out when it gets here.

I purchased a Kingston 32 gb class 6 micro sd card for my phone. I began to copy over the contents of my current card, but im at work and had to step out. I told a coworker that if they also had to leave to please just close the screen of my netbook so that its contents would be secure, hoping that it would have finished copying. It was not finished and the screen was closed putting the netbook into standby. When I returned and turned the comp back on the copy progress screen was blank and just all white as was the window depicting the contents of the card. I had to restart the computer as after 15 min nothing had changed. Now the card is not recognized. I checked it in my phone and computer and it says no disk is present. I put it in the sd adapter and try to format and my computer says there is no disk. I am at a loss?? I just got this freakin card and for a great deal that ill never find again especially for a class 6! Does any one have any ideas for me to try?? I know that its not entirely related to X10's but I can't seem to find any other avenues for help. I would like to not right this card off
Any help is sincerely appreciated
Did ya get it off ebay by any chance? Didn't think class 6 32 gb cards existed yet. I've had 2 off ebay (class not stated) and they both turned out to b hacked 2 gb 1s, they were both "good deals" a bit too good! Got a refund for em both so got 2 2gb cards for free
If it was from ebay at a great deal price... you're screwed... bought one myself only to find out it was a dupe... never got my money back

Transcend , Sandisk makes one, Nokia has one, not sure who makes it. I have had this problem before.. you have to low level format it and it will be fine. any questions just ask.
I am thinking of getting a 32 gb class 6 from ebay as well. Hope I have better luck
I bought one from ebay a couple weeks ago for like 13 dollars and it arrived today. Just popped it in the phone and its saying 31.24 gb.
It's a kingston card. I'll try copying some stuff over and see how it goes.
EDIT. Copying my 11 gb of music over writing at 3.5 MB/s
Class was not stated when I bought mine. I just figured for 13 bucks i'll take the chance.

I think there is no support on the x10 for 32gb sd card yet. You also need an opptinal uppdate from windows update to read 32gb cards. And remeber its not sd carts you need to use its micro sdhc cards ;-)

FWIW, I have a Kingston class 4 32GB, it also works fine on 1.6 I have 5,000 songs with album art on it as well as things like the language modules from Swiftkey, etc and still have 2gb free.
I have had a 32gb micro sd sandisk for about 3 months now, no problems to report (UK) purchased online from Carphone Warehouse. Only issue is whereas android shows roughly 3gb storage free, when using mediascape to transfer music, it only shows 120mb of storage remaining - bummer

THERE ARE NO TRUE CLASS 6 32G micro SDHC cards.
And as a caution, here's a FAKE card marked Class 6 (and confirmed as fake by Kingston USA). I was lucky and got my money back when the seller was confronted (and is still selling these on eBay). The photo below is a FAKE card. Kingston's 32G is a class 4. Lexar's 32G is a class 10. The Lexar IS faster writing at 8-10mb while the Kingston writes at about 4mb; I have both Kingston and Lexar 32G.
NewEgg is a licensed reseller, you can get a nice 32GB card under $100 with a USB flash reader for it such as Kingston's MRG2+SDC4/32GB. I keep the usb reader on my keychain. You need a reader because these cards are NOT compatible with most older slot readers even when you put them in an adaptor for SD or M-Stick.
NEVER FORMAT IN WINDOWS!!!!! You may ruin the card's usefulness forever.
Windows will add cryptographic junk which is NOT compatible with Android. If you MUST format in windows go to the SD Consortium and get their format software http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/

Well i got a 32GB Kingston Micro SDHC card from Singapore for about 120 Sing $ (4200 Indian Rupees). In India same card was not available and even the places i inquired they were asking around 10,000 Indian rupees..
Simple enough,
Does anyone know the largest size external micro SD card that the USA T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant supports?
I'm wanting to buy a 32GB one, but I don't want to if it won't support it,
help?
EDIT: Does anyone know what class external SD card the Vibrant comes with as well?
I don't have one but others have confirmed it supports the 32 gig. Waiting for it to come down some more. For me its not worth it. Due to the size I have a small case I keep in my wallet and now I have 32gb lol.
Thanks! does anyone know what class the stock external SD card (that comes with the Vibrant) is?
BUMP......
the stock card for me was a Class 4. I assume it's the same for all other Vibrants.
I got a 16gb one for 36$ at Radio Shack because it was so cheap. If it supports a 32gb maybe one day I'll switch but the one I have is good for now.

My stock 2gb card does not have a class marked but thru bench results and testing, im guessing class 2....BEWARE!.....I bought a 32gb sd that had no class markings. It detected the sd and all seemed well untill i tried to play a video. You get what you pay for. NEVER buy an sd with no class markings! It didnt even have the capability to be used as "ready boost for windows" I now have the sidekick and swapped my 4gb class 2 for the sd card in my old lady's 8 gb class 4. What a huge difference in video playback (c2 vrs c4). And if you want to move apps to sd. Class 4 or above is the way to go.

My mom just bought me an 8gb micro sd for my upcoming birthday. Luckily it's a class 4. I'll be using it for movies and music.
There was a lot of discussion about external SDCards in the Nook Color forum because of the Nook's ability to dual boot and run a second OS from the SDCard. Many brands of cards and class of cards were tested. It came down to "do not believe" that a higher class card is really faster. Testing showed that a class 4 Sandisk SDCard was faster than all other brands class 10 cards in random read writes. In some cases by a very large margin. The classes are based on sequential read/write only.
I have 2 kingston 32gb micro SD card i purchased in advance for my EVO 3D and my Xoom. I put it in my 3D and it detected and mounted the card. i then plugged the 3D into my computer as a drive and copied over photos, music, and a couple of movies. I unplug the phone from the computer, and EVERYTHING disappeared. I formatted the card, did it again, and ran scan disk and defrag before i unmounted from my computer. same effect. Anyone else experiencing this?
No problems with my PNY 32 gb. I have never formatted the card either, but maybe try formatting the card from within the phone's menu, or you got bum cards.

good point I didn't think about that. Also if he got them on ebay good chance they're fakes. I remember reading that the fakes spoofed having 32 gigabytes but just wrote over the same 4gb of space over and over.
Hmm, my Kingston 32 GB class 10 that I paid an exorbitant amount from Newegg has not failed. But it has failed to give me class 10 speed. More like a fictional class 8.
Kingston memory is considered pretty high quality in the desktop memory market.

Yes, this Kingston class 10 was going to replace my Sandisk 32 class 2 (which did class 6 speed). Now, I just might return it.
Lots of disparity between claimed and actual performance with these cards in either direction. My guess is it isn't worth the cost to test on the production line, they just write off the occasional RMA.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
So yeah, this is a fake. What happens is the fake SD Card maker runs dd on a very small SD Card so that it gets up to the size. If you configure dd you can make it loop over the drive so you can set the drive's size pretty easily. You end up with a card that will basically only hold a small amount of data but looks like it can handle much more.

That's the one I ordered, which should come today. Not really going to help this guy out since the card is out of stock.
It was back in stock on Monday, on Tuesday I looked and it was sold out.
On a lot of these 32GB Class 10 microsdhc cards - I read a lot of mixed reviews citing general Android incompatibility? I've read a lot of comments calling it an "industry wide" compatibility issue with Android. Has anyone had problems with a class 10 card - knowing that it came from a reputable source?
That's honestly the one thing that's kept me from pulling the trigger on a 32GB class 10 card. I wanted to hear that people were successfully using these types of cards in an EVO 3D with speed critical applications like recording and viewing HD video.
Good to know that certain cards are having issues.
No problems with the SanDisk 32gb card I bought from amazon 3 months ago other than the price dropped $30 immediately after I bought it.

I got a Sandisk 32GB Class 4 from Amazon. Works fine.
In my opinion, unless you are doing a lot of writing to the SD, the write speed (as reflected in the class number) is not that important.
I heard a lot of reports saying the 32gb is a problem 32gb just doesn't play well with this phone (Droid X2). The 16gb is the sweet spot I believe.

Sent from your Girlfriends Droid X2 on Cyanogen 7!
All of the chips inside the cards are all made by Samsung, so its really a matter of how you treat your cards and the speed you want. For light use like music and photos, you won't notice the difference between class 6 and 10, if you often copy large video files or massive file syncs, then go for 10
Now I can't decide if I want a 16gb or 32gb. I don't want my card to lose pictures.
