Great! im going to order that 64 gb one man its a steal. one thing I had a question about is that I saved all my google play music to my sd card bc I only have internet access in my room and streaming is a no go. so if I copy and paste all the files from my 32 gb card will the music still be there? and importantly will google music recognize it? if someone could test this out for me thatd be greaaaaaat

I have a 32gb card from my inspire I would like to use, all my music and some videos. It also has my titanium backups. Can I safely put this card in without messing something up?
It should. Don't see why it wouldn't work. Lol
Don't know about the titanium backup apps. But music and vidoes should be fine

The Titanium Backup(s) should work fine...but it does depend on each individual app and if it is compatible with your new SGSII. In general, Titanium Backup works on the SGSII. I wouldn't recommend "restoring" system apps from your Inspire, however. That may cause issues.
I seem to remember seeing a video of a 64gb SD card being properly read and used on a GSII.

And I have read that the SGS2 "officially" supports SD cards up to 32GB...so it sounds as though the OP would be OK with the 32GB card. Frankly I'm surprised such an advanced phone doesn't support cards even bigger than 32GB.

I can assure you the 32 gig cards work. Im using a 32gig class 4 sandisk as we speak. No problems what so ever.

Does anyone sell a micro SD card that's bigger than 32gb? I'm fairly sure the vid I saw said that the 64gb used wasn't available to the public yet.

I've seen SD and CF cards that are 64gb but not micro SD.
Off topic: I see you're in Sherwood. I'm across the city in Maumelle. Nice to see a fellow Arkansan on here.

Actually, as soon as you put the card in your phone, a message pops up stating "All Your Base Are Belong To Us - HTC".
Only joking, you won't have any issues whatsoever whether it be the phone recognizing the card or your titanium backups. Obviously, you already know about having the phone detect the location of your backups. That would be the only thing to take into account. As someone stated earlier, make sure you don't restore any system apps because that can cause issues. Also, you don't want to replace any apps that are on the phone with your backups because that can cause issues as well.
All in all, you should be safe for whatever you are trying to do.
Good luck and welcome to the wonderful world of Galaxy S.
I just moved my Micro SD card from my Inspire to my Galaxy. The card already had backups, titanium backups, apps, music, etc. All read on the S2 with no issues what so ever. I had it loaded to nearly 25 gigs and it took a matter of seconds for my phone to scan it.
My coworker is stock rooted gingerbread with a 32GB sd card (with 25gb still available for use). He's been that way for about 2 months now, and uses stock camera and gallery.
For some reason now, his pics aren't saving. I just tried myself with his phone, and the pic was saved to ext_sd/dcim/... I saw it in the folder using root explorer. Within 5 min, the pic was replaced with the triangle error sign.
Any thoughts?

clear gallery data
change save location to int sd
format ext sd
ive gotten those on rare occasions, but couldnt pinpoint it down to anything in particular

He has to xfer media to int sd before formatting
And I told him to get a sandisk

Possible bad sd card. If its from ebay, it may be a fake 32 gb. Test the card with H2testw.

My thoughts exactly! I hate eBay, and that is where he got it (for cheap... Go figure ). I didn't know there were cards that read 32 but were only 8. It makes sense since he has used 6gb of space (and we all know 8gb isn't really 8gb)
Thanks

Hey guys I took my sdcard out of the phone formatted it and when I put it back in the phone it now wont detect the sdcard and also it wont detect internal storage also...
EDIT: or nvm I rebooted it a couple times but now it detects the phone storage but when I put in my 16gb micro sd it does nothing until I remove it. When I remove it, it shows that it has been removed, but before that it doesn't show a sdcard is inserted... Yet when I put an 8gb one it it shows that it's in the phone...
Well we just discovered that our phones say there is no external storage at all. From best buy.

I concur with this statement.
I too have a 64 gig card and I formatted it in the phone. The phone sees it as 59+gigs which is cool. But what I am trying to figure out is how to save or move apps to the actual sd card. Not phone storage that is the 9+ gigs, but the actual 64 gig card.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
I don't think there is a way to do this right now with out changing the mount points

The thing is that the phone doesn't even detect that i've inserted the card. When I insert the 8gb card it shows preparing the sd card and it gives me all the options to unmount/format/everything else. When I put the 16gb one in everything is still grayed out and it doesn't even think i've inserted a micro sd card.

So how hard is it to do that and/or how soon before you think it could happen? It seems though HTC could maybe do something or is just the way Android is. It just seems that it should just be a part of it. LOL. I mean I already have some music on the sd card by creating the folder...I just don't want to run out of space on my phone.
Ok, i'm going to bestbuy in a little bit to pick up a 32gb micro sd and see if it'll work with that...

So I just got my new 64gb class 10 sd card, and last time I did a partition on sd card was about 2 year ago on the og evo, and I remember its was useful to have a partion ext.3 but now I see there is ext.4 also along the ext.2 as well. so my question is do I still need to partition sd card and which partition should I use? and what size? thank a lot!
U can see fat32 on mini partition tool....fat32 work on all android mobiles

I'm getting one in the mail also Saturday and was going to ask also. Don't you just put the card in your phone and format it and it works to get all 59GB? Then transfer all of my info from my 32gb card over to it?

keep in mind; fat32 has 4GB single file limit which means you wont be able to save anything larger than that such as blu-ray 1080p rips, etc...

I imagine this does not bode well for android changing it's SD card policy in kitkat and later.

There is a simple fix for that someone else posted. Right now i have no issues with my current card after applying the fix. sorry dont have a link but i know it is posted in another thread on here...
Sure, it's easy to enable write access to SD cards if you're rooted, but the tablet still won't move apps to the card. Unless I've missed something.
Sent from my SM-P900 using Tapatalk
Unless I missed something I have no problems moving apps to my sd card. Just received my Sammy 64 GB from the sale yesterday and it works fine. Got the pro model.
Are they actually getting moved to the SD card? Are you using the built in system app manager to move them? Mine says itvs moving them but really its just moving them to the virtual "sdcard" storage that is really the system memory. When I check the storage utilization of the real SD card it doesn't show anything relocated.
