My 4GB card is just not enough for me and when I plan to get a higher one how would I do the switch process? I'm running CM7 by Mik. Will the ROM be affected in any way when I switch cards? Can someone outline the process?
I think that the rom doesnt matters..i did it like this.....
Connect your phone to pc
Copy all folders to desktop(just copy not move)
Disconnect the phone
Turn of the phone
Change sd card
Connect again to pc and copy the files from desktop to sd card
Your done

If you are using a ext already than yes. You should also backup your apps and restore it on to the new sdcard

Just speed. Therefore class 6 is recommended
tnx feeshie
sori for the noob-ish question, but what do i do with that ext and partition" that u are talking about??^__^
Another way would be backup using custom recovery, replace new SD and partition and finally, restore ur backup
Nvr bad to copy everything to computer

A partition is used by the data2sd mod. If you haven't partitioned your card when you flashed the ROM then you won't need to partition this one. Just copy all your files in your PC and paste them on your new card.
tnx a lot!!! even though i flashed a rom, partition does not have anything to do with it, right??? so i'll just copy all the files and it's fine?
There are some ROMs that require an ext partition, but mik_os's cm7 does not require one.
Yes, just copy the files and that's it.

I have an 8 GB Class 2 SD Card, does it make a huge difference? I'm guessing as in speed your talking about phone performance? Should I not use the 8 GB I have and buy another one with a higher class or does it not matter enough to get a new one?
Don't use a class2 sdcard, it's way too slow. Class 6 or higher recommended.

If the seller has a picture of the SD card the class should be next to the amount of GB and circled. So a Class 4 should have a circled 4.
thanks! ^__^

Hi
Apologies, but I'm having a little difficulty. I just bought a 64 GB sandisk card, and had reformatted it in my SGS2. It recognises 59GB OK. That is not the issue.
I am trying to copy my 32GB card (about 29GB full) using my Windows 7 PC into a folder on my desktop. Then I was going to copy entire contents onto 64GB card and insert in SGS2.
But it just won't do it. Windows just doesn't seem to be built for shifting around that volume of data.
What am I doing wrong?
You have to so be doing something wrong i have copied even more than that before without any issues.
do a search and see what you come up with.
Download Teracopy and install. A million times better than the standard file transferring in windows. Will allow you to see where the copy failed and retry anything that failed to copy. Also won't stop the file copy when one fails, will skip that file and continue copying.
How is the card formated. Windows wont allow a single file bigger than 4gb if its FAT32. You have to use other programs.

His 32gb existing card would be fat32, so i doubt that's the problem.

Where did you get you're 64gb card, how much was it?

I think what s2sd is impling that you might have a fals sd card with a boot loop crack installed on it.
You can test the card for this, have a lot at this site:http://sosfakeflash.wordpress.com/2...standard-in-detecting-usb-counterfeit-drives/
It happend to me aswell, even paying a normal amount for the card
To check for fake cards, try the SDCardTester app (free from Android Market). There's also a Windows app, h2testw, that works similarly.

sd card blank or has unsupported file system.
i don't no whats wrong i click the notification and it asks me to format i click yes it finishes and the error message pops up again
its formatted as fat32 so i haven't a clue whats wrong anyone have any idea
Oooooo... Your SD card is corrupted...
I don't think you can open it now...
When it asks for format in phone... Don't do it...
Connect it to a PC and then format it and pray to GOD that it runs...
There isn't much you can do with sd cards unless its a class 10

its saying it on my new xperia j i got on friday. the sd is out of my ray which it still works in and it works in my x8 just not my new j ive tried different sd cards and they all say the same. im thnking its a hardware problem but it is obviously reading something. i tried using adb pusher to see if it would push files through the phone but it said ext_card faild access denied. im so frustrated
Just try a new sdcard and tell if it works or not and is the sdcard u were using of low quality?? If yes then it maynot run on such high devices...same case happened to me, so I replaced it and new one worked like charm...

Class 4 is fine...
I myself, am using class 4 SanDisk SD card... Just buy a new SD card and it has a 5 year replacement warranty... So no need to worry...
No don't buy a class 10 SD card... It will cost 5 or 6 times more than the normal class four...
There is no need for such expenditure
Check to see how the internal memory is mounted...it may be mounted as sdcard and the sdcard mounted as ext-sd or some such thing and this is why your card is working on the Ray but not in the J. You probably should check in the J forum because if this is the case it should be common and there is probably a work around. Maybe also check the other devices in the same series (Miro & Tipo???)

I own a Sprint Sgs3 rooted. A while back I was running a 4.2 rom, I believe liquid smooth. From that I did a clean install and switched to a 4.3 rom to try it out. When it got to the home screen it said my SD card may be corrupted and asked me to format. I hit yes and nothing seemed to happen but I no longer got the error. I switched back to a 4.2 rom and it says my internal memory is 95% full and my SD card has 16 gb free. Before this happened it was split between the two so internal wasn't nearly as full. How do I get it back like that?

Hi, I recently reverted from KK rom to stock 2.3.3. There is a strange problem only with files on microSD. I copy files on it but at first reboot the media scanning tells me card problem (broken?). If I don't restart the files are generally played!!! I try different sd and different method of format. Any suggestion???

If you've not done a /data wipe after downgrading, that can be an issue. Else, copy the files of your sd to your PC and then format it on your galaxy player.

That's already done!!! It's a strange problem only on reboot, it report mSD as damaged. But I can format and insert data normally just fine before reboot!

The problem is that I sell the player, I always used a Sandisk 32GB with no problem. Now the buyer tell me that there is this problem with a Samsung! Thank you, I'll suggest a sd exchange... maybe a speed class compability....
I have the same problem with my sandisk 32 GB card and found out that it was the problem.
Update SanDisk will replace the card so as long as you have it. I wrote a review on it. Just let it update though.

Nope, I have to buy new one. I have been using my card for 2 years. The card performance have been degraded due to extensive read and write, after reading your sugestion I tested the card using software called "AOMEI partition manager" and the result are degraded performance due to extensive read and write.
For information to other people with same problem; I use "persyst.sys.vold.switchexternal" mod/workarround to swap galaxy player limited storage with my 64 Gb card. This mod make the card work very very hard and degrade card performance.
Hope this information will help other people with same problem.
