I just bought a 256 MB Hama SD card. I can neither format that card through the XDA nor by windows and my Card Reader. The XDA says something like "unknown SD Card please specify name of card driver" Can anyone help? I read on the forum that the StorageTool could help so I installed it but all it says is "no volume". Should I return the SD card to Amazon?
Make sure the write-protect tab is not set to "Lock" (it should be slid toward the contacts). I read on Amazon that some people have had trouble with the tab sliding to "Lock" too easily when inserting the card.
Otherwise I'd say you need to return the card. Either the XDA or Windows should be able to format the card.

First of all, big thanks to code28h4p for giving us all this wonderful ROM ! Its fast, smooth and sexy!

Well when I first tried to partition the Sd card, I go errors that the SD card was spoilt on my ACE. I was bewildered, so I tried this method and it worked!!
1. Safely remove SD card.
2. Insert the SD card in the u D to SD converter provided by samsung.(Yeah you need to this, I was not able to format the SD card while it was in the phone and this is clas 2 card. BTW I am using the 2GB card provided by Samsung India with SGA.)
3. Using mini partition tools (http://download.cnet.com/Partition-Wizard-Home-Edition/3000-2094_4-10962200.html) partition into FAT (16 or 32 depending on SD card size) and ext 2.
4. Insert back the sd card, and run commands (refer the ROM post) in ADB or using terminal for android. Voila! A2SD is setup after a loooong reboot.
Guys AFAIK there are SD cards with classes 2, 4, 6,8 and 10. (may be higher classes, but I have not come across them.) Basically CLASS of the SD card indicates the data transfer rate of the SD card. Higher the class much better is the Data transfer rate. I would suggest you to go for a class 4 or class 6, 4 or 8 Gb SD cardif you just plan to use the 'a2sd cachesdreset' and go for class 10 (COSTLY!) 16 Gb SD card if you like to store a lot of media and if you want to use 'a2sd datasd' command as there will be slight LAG with lower clas SD cards.
The brands that I would recommend are : Transcend, Kingston which r available in India.
press THX if I helped!!!
[PS: any modifications to be made, plz PM me THX!!]
i tought there some sd cards that doesnt support this?

I had some problem with SD 4gb Class 4. Others, with class 6 or better didn't have problems. I don't know if all sd cards class 2 or 4 has problems, but some has.

Hi mate!
I feel all sd cards can be partitioned into partitions (sorry for the repetitiveness of the sentence ).
The 2nd step just states that you have to insert your sd card into the micro SD card to SD card converter that samsung (you can also get it from computer stores. just ask for micro SD to SD converter. It will cost 20 Indian Rupees = 0.3$ ) has provided. Then insert that converter along with micro SD card into a card reader on a laptop or the one that can be connected to the PC.
hey i'm new to all this and i guess i messed it up..
I have the sd card provided by samsung, 2gb one...i followed whatever u said...but in the terminal it says 'EXT partition is not mounted'
...what to do?

Everything sorted out...I flashed it again with sd card inserted,......Thanks for the tutorial!
I am thinking of getting a 64gb micro sd card (which I believe will work in the GS2), how easy is it to transfer the apps and content that are already on my 32gb card? I is it as easy as just copying the content from the current card to my pc then copy it back to the new 64gb card?

wait.... are 64GB micro SD cards out yet???
I have to go check.

can't find any, where are you buying it.?

Also, yes. It should be as easy as copying the content from one card to another.
Goes on sale tomorrow on Amazon UK for £99.
The SanDisk 64GB microSDXC does work in the SGS2 -- I've been using it for about a month now. If you're transferring stuff from an old memory card, I'd recommend the following procedure.
Remove the old card from your SGS2 and put in the new 64GB card.
Power up the SGS2; it'll say something like "external SD card is damaged. Do you want to reformat?" Say yes, and let the SGS2 reformat the card from exFAT to FAT32.
Remove the 64GB card from the SGS2.
Mount both the old & new memory cards on a PC, and do the copy there. Use your PC's SD card slot or a USB reader.
Once everything's copied to the 64GB card, put it in your SGS2 and you're done.
Isnt only up to 48gb sd card supported on our S2?
A couple of people have tried the SanDisk microSDXC 64GB , and it appears to work fine , after a format in the phone , 48gb is just the official max.
See thread in link below.

Hi
I can not find tip how I can do it
I have just formated SanDisk 64 GB micro sd card and momentary have 59,4 GB place on that card.
When I make recording with camera and make photos I would like to save directly that videos/photos on micro sd card.
How I can do it?
Thanks
In the Camera App itself you can choose in the settings (top left icon) whether to save the videos/pictures to the internal memory or SD card.
Just for future reference by the way, it's best to put any questions like this in the Q&A section of the forum.
Hope this helps
