I havent got a 32 GB micro sd (16 GB is fine for me) but i believe that Sandisk works perfectly. Got it from this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683292.
(I used search, next time it may be a biiit more convenient if you did that first, no offense )
Will the HTC Rezound loose apps to sd card when we get the ICS OTA update? I noticed many of the new ICS roms on other devices no longer support apps to sd card. I would hate to loose that. I think it may be the new phones that are coming out with ICS as their default software.
Thanks,
Vinny
RedSox got hammered. Pitching sucks.
Might actually have something to do with those phones not having external sd cards.

Samsung Galaxy S3 has exterior sd card and you can not put apps to sd card. I have the T-Mobile version in Pebble Blue with 32 gb of int memory.
No apps to ext sd card.

That's cool. It was just a theory that seemed to make sense, to me at least.

Is there any way to upgrade the internal 16GB storage to a 32GB? I'm not referring to the external MicroSD card.
It might be possible i think samsung use SD cards as their internal storage.
Yh of course there is sell ur 16gb version nd buy the 32gb version

is it even possible ? unless there are motherboard with 32 gb for sale ?
This is not possible for the conventional person unless you have access to some pro level reflow ovens and flash chips.

You need a laptop hard drive, super glue and a hammer.

So is that basically a no, without serious mods to the phone?
Dude the internal flash memory is what's called smd in electronics (surface mounted device). Basically they are miniaturized semiconductor components with tiny solder pads which can only be joined with specialized equipment.
It's impossible to mess with it at home, that's why I sprung the extra cash for the 32gb version.

This is indeed a very interesting notion since the galaxy s3 was my very first smartphone and android I thought to myself that with the 16gb internal SD with an extra external SD card it should suffice but I was very wrong as apps only install in the internal SD card and I'm almost at my limits since I have alot of HD games and apps installed.

Just buy a 64 GB micro sd card.
Have a look at Directory Bind. This should solve your space issues (assuming you have a micro sd card in your phone).

Im new to rooting so i don't like the idea of fiddling with it so is there any other means?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Lot less hassle rooting than even thinking about opening up device and messing with that...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yeah but there's a mod to swap the Internal and external SD cards so you could buy a 64gb card and have lots of app storage. Its also a matter of time before the app2 SD gets sorted for s3
Oh well no worries, I can live with it

Hello everyone. This is my first post on these forums. So i bought a SanDisk 32 GB micro SD card... I am using a mac. My Mac cant see the sd card as external storage. I have enabled MSC and i have mounted the SD card from my phone. In storage settings it says that the total space on sd card is unavailable. I am running Gingerbread and i have search about this topic and all i learned is that there are some bugs with the SD card in this version. Can someone help me with my problems? I am new to android.

are you able to see the sd card on the phone at all?
No. I cant see the card from the phone.. I have seen that this kind of sd cards are compatible with xperia go, but i dont know why it cant been seen on the phone. Also in the application section on settings there is a tab about the sd but it uses my internal storage as the sd and not the 32 Gb micro sd

Hi.
Maybe you should try Kingston microSDHC Card, Class 10
I have one with 8 GB, and never experienced any problem with it on my phones.
I dont know how it is formated. Is there any way i can see that?

I just saw that my micro SDHC was already in a fat32 format. Anyway, i formatted it in fat32 format again, but my phone can not see it again
90 percent chance the memory card is fake.
Where did you bought it?

I bought it from amazon. Here is the link. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003WGJYCY/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 from Digital Media Source.. They have very good reviews... Now i went to format it on my windows 7 laptop and it said that it was 29,7 gb not 32... Also tested my sd with H2testw and i got an error... I really dont know what to do. The card seems legit from the outside. iIt is a class 4 micro SDHC
I just bought a 16gb class 4 sdcard from target for 25 bucks and I'm having all kinds of problems getting my device to mount it...I've blown out the SDcard spot on the back of the phone,multi booted a lot of times..I have a 8gb class 2 card and it works..its starting to die because of multi recovery partitions so I had to get a new one...oh both cards are micro sdcard hc....

Format it from your phone not with a computer
It can't be formatted when its not being recognized...even my ps3 isn't recognizing it...when I go into recovery and try to do anything I get an error in mounting card..which makes me think I have to change the cards partition from whatever it is now to fat32

did you tried another kernel to see if it has some problems
for me on few kernels on ics and gb the sd card made me few problems and my sd card is with 32 gb class 4 and is new so i tried some other kernels to see if it works and worked i had this problem sometimes on gb with djnoxd's kernel
Supposedly 32gb class 10 is supported. My 8gb class 6 works well. If your PC can't recognize it you may have a bad sd

I just bought this sdcard....its literally not even 4 hours old...I'm on stock kernel so I'll try the kernel switches and see what it does
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
after flashing the new kernel don't forget to format sd card in settings
Well let's hope the phone would recognize the card while in cwm recovery...it can't format a card if it doesn't detect it

I'm assuming the 16gb card I just purchased is a class 4
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
look on your sd card for a "c" letter with 4 in middle and look if you see the symbol
Yep its a class 4
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Even with the 8gb card..I sometimes had problems...I'd boot in to recovery and try to flash a zip and that error of not being able to mount would be there so I'd have to take the battery out and the card,blow the card and slot place than reboot into recovery and then it would work

Its annoying, this phone supposedly supports up to 32gb...it should be as easy as popping out the old one to replace a better one
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
maybe your slot card is damaged
If that were the case,than I wouldn't be able to use the 8gb card either...I think the 16gb card comes pre formatted on an exFAT partition and in order for any android phone to recognize it. It needs to be fat32 format...I also have problems detecting the 16gb card with the xmb of ps3...ps3 only recognizes fat32....if all of this is the case I need a good partitioning windows program. .this 16gb card is a brand new card
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Well...
I really think that the problem is with your sd card slot, because if you are saying that you had problems with the 8gb and the 16gb, also im telling you this because on my phone i tried a lot of sd cards, and i didn't have any trouble...
Also, my brand new sd card 16gb class 4, i didn't have to format it, i just put it on the phone, it was already formated fat32
