Hi All,
I have stumbled across a micro to minisd adaptor for micro sd cards and I was wondering if this would actually work on a HTC Wizard device.
http://351435.trustpass.alibaba.com/product/11709112/Micro_SD_To_Mini_SD_Adapter.html
Theoreticly it should because it's just a bigger size. But maybe the software can't handle it. It would be amazing if it could because they are now selling 8gb micro sd cards! The other option is to just use a 4gb Mini SD card but can't seem to find one that people say is guaranteed to work.
Thanks!
this would be soooo great if it would work...anyone have any info?
A micro-to-mini SD adapter should work, provided the microSD card is supported. The new 4/6/8 GB microSD cards are actually microSDHC cards -- a slightly different standard, one that is not supported by the Wizard. The older 2GB & smaller microSD cards should work on the Wizard using the adapter.
BTW, the 6 & 8 GB cards aren't quite on the market yet, as far as I can tell -- even the 4GB are very hard to find. Newer HTC models (TyTN, Touch, Kaiser, etc.) will support SDHC, provided you have the proper ROM firmware.
I was using one with a 2 Gig card until the USB connector fell off my wizard :-( I'm sure it's not related to the adaptor!)

Yes it will work, if you did not figure it out yet.
just to confirm, i have been using a 2gb micro sd card in a mini adapter for about a year...no problems.
i got a kingston microSD card of 2GB
it come with a normal SD to microSD conveter
and a miniSD to microSD converter
both work just fine
2gb sandisk micro-mini working here as well...
The PNY micro-mini SD configuration also works fine.
i have PNY adapter to Mini SD. it works great
Transcend 2GB MicroSD (MLC chip :-( )works gr8 too
snif snifff
no micro sd hc 8go nor 6go for my wizard... sh.t !!!!!
got a wizard with a 2go mini sd 80x, good price, anyone interested ?
nobody ? sh.t i was sure !
I came accross this card :
http://www.netfreez.com/products/Netfreez_8GB_miniSD_Flash_Memory_Card_High_Capacity-10733-207.html
It says "high performance" but nowhere does it say SDHC. It would be incredible if it would work in the MDA (wizard). Anyone know anything about this card?
Oh I see it says High Capacity in the title, crap!
Are there any 6 or 8 gb micro or mini sd that are NOT HC? I want more than 2 gb in my MDA.
HEy guys! I have a small problem. I have a Kingston microSD with miniSD adapter and I wanted to use it with my Wizard, but it's not working! (On my PC it works) Please help! I've tried several ROMs (thought that it's the failure of the software), but no effect. Maybe the device's slot turned dead?
same problem
I have the same problem with my kingston 2 gb micro sd, but I know it accepts 2 gb micro cards because I used to use a lexar and it worked fine.

I just happened to see your post. I have a 4GB mini in my 8125 wizard and it works great. I have pictures, mp3's and gps software on it. I have never had any problems. I purchased it from Flash Memory Store. It is not an HD card...they also sell those. I have not seen any 6 or 8GB yet!!!
Here is the link:

The Herald supports micro SDHC. Which, theoretically, maxes out at 32gb.
Does it straight-up support SDHC, or does it require some sort of program or reflash?

I've got a 8GB SDHC card.. Works like a dream. Only music is a bit of a problem! but oh well..
8Gb SDHC, no problems, just plugged right in. On the funny side I had to buy a new cardreader for my PC due to the fact that it supported only 4Gb.
How to read MicroSD card on PC?
I have 2GB MicroSD card that comes with the Wing. I can use ActiveSync to transfer files from my PC to the card without problem, but at a very slow speed. For large movie files around 1GB, I thought I could put the MicroSD in the card reader on the PC and copy the file over faster. However, my Win XP insists that the card is not formated or the format is unknown. Do I need any special driver for my PC to be able to read/write to the Wing MicroSD card? Thanks.
I've found the 8gb sdhc cards but cannot find any 16gb or larger cards. Anyone know where I might be able to find them?
Thanks

Card reader BUILT INTO the PC? I've seen a laptop (a few years old) with a built-in reader that was incompatible with the MicroSD+SD adapter. The $10 25 in 1 reader by Targus that I got at Radio Shack works just fine.

does anyone have wm6.1 running and sandisk 8gb microsd sdhc card. does it work for you did you have to format it to 2 4gb drives. thank for any input
ltxda im pretty sure is running the 8gb on the ap 4.0 beta rom. works there. i believe he is also getting the 12gb soon or already has ones. should be working fully and show full 8gb on single partition.
I have a sandisk 8gb microsd and it came with a sandisk micro to mini adapter. i have the htc x7500 and i have tried the following roms. htc wm6, pk 3.0 dual, wm6.1... NONE of these have recognized the 8gb sd card at all. i put it in a blackjack II and it recognized it with no problem at all. i could write to it and it recognized all 8gb. I am not sure what i am doing wrong but i could use some help. i also tried the cab from this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361131 and it did not work at all. Thanks for any help you can provide
Looks like you have to wait for AP 4.0 then!

Hi
It seems to be unusual, because i used sandisk 8gb microsd with mini adapter on PK 3, PK 3 dual and WM6.1 roms. it worked on all of them. As far as i know that even 16gb and 32gb also works on Athena. Reformat the microsd (Fat32) then try, it should work.
Good luck

1 had similar problems with a 6 micro and mini adapter. I finally got the little bugger seated just right. I don't know whether it is the Athena or the adapter but it took me about 6 or 7 tries before my 6 gb showed up the good new for me is that once seated no more poblems since.

Hi
If your card is SDHC (Whatever capacity) it should read by X7500. I use the Kingston mini adapter and it reads 2, 4, 6, 8gb cards without problems. I feel your mini adapter may be the problem. try another adapter.
Good luck.

I have the sandisk 8gb with the adapter and it works just fine. 3.0 dual. Took out 4gb and inserted 8gb with no problems. Athena is compatible to 32gb on the HTC web site.

I can confirm the "bad micro to mini adaptor" issue, my Sandisk 8 micro SDHC card works absolutely flawless now that I got hold of a Kingston adaptor, prior to that I used a cheap Chinese noname adaptor, and with that it took a lot of fiddling to get my Ameo to see the card, and it would disconnect constantly. this is true with the AP 3 ROM, never tried WM 6.1.

Hi
I can use a 8 GB SanDisk microsd with another mini adapter. I bougth another micro sd sandisk adapter and the card is completely usefull. It won't be reconize with the include adapter with the card.
If you see carefully they has diferent id number.
Regards.
Maybe they neglect the quality control with these adapters.....
Any adapter will work with a micro SDHC provided (of course) that it isn't faulty. There is no issue with compliance between mini and micro adapters and the SDHC format as they simply act as a terminal bridge.
On similar topic - despite the abundance of 'SDHC READY' usb card readers available to buy - for more money than a standard reader - I am yet to find ANY so-called 'non-compliant' reader that DOESN'T read SDHC cards, other than internal laptop varieties.
I have an external cheapo N95 dock with a card reader, two different poundland (yes $2) card readers and one I got free with a memory stick duo nearly 3 years ago.
ALL read and write to SDHC cards fine....
strange that....

never mind i had to clear storage ended up losing everything
Anyone found a compact microSD card reader that will work with an S7? I've got this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N6ICDGX
But the S7 complains it draws too much power. Specifically it states:
Code:
High-power USB device connected
Cannot access to this device. Connected device needs external power supply.
I can use it with other Android devices without any problems. Specifically a Nexus 7 tablet.
I don't have to use this specific reader, anything would be fine. I'm just after something compact that will also work while the S7 has a case on it. Lots of readers have too much case around them and won't fit into the Neo Spigen case I have on it.
I've used the Samsung micro-to-USB OTG adapter with several garden-variety USB readers and those work with no power warnings. No doubt those consume more power than this.

I use the designed-in SD card reader that is standard with several models of HP Pavilion notebook (the SanDisk microSD card-carrier will also work with the same Pavilion notebook models - the carrier is bundled with Sandisk microSD media typically of 32GTB and larger) I use the same-size microSD cards (SanDisk 32GB) in everything that takes microSD - the two notebooks, my Lenovo tablet, and my newest acquisition - a Samsung Galaxy S7; my GNex does not take microSD cards at all).

Which doesn't answer my question. I'm not asking what will read microSD cards. I'm asking what reader will work when PLUGGED INTO THE S7 . Big Difference.
I've found another device that works, the GoPro keychain microSD reader.

No, why would you ask that?
I want a way to read/write microSD cards using the S7 phone. As in, copy files to/from microSD cards. For situations like travel and wanting to upload a file that's on a microSD from a camera, one that may not have a means to connect via USB directly to a device. Seemed like a pretty simple question that wouldn't have anything to do with an "access point".
Thread cleaned.

There is a microSD reader built into the phone - it is all-internal (the nano-SIM carrier is also a microSD carrier; the microSD mounts underneath the nano-SIM). There is an accessory that you can purchase that opens the nano-SIM/microSD carrier - or you can bend a staple to open the drawer.

There is indeed a card reader in the phone. One that will very likely already be occupied by a memory card. One that would be used during the process of transferring media files to/from standalone microSD cards.
That and constant use of the internal microSD slot is probably a bad plan. I'm not thinking they expect it to be used for swapping cards all the time. Seems a lot smarter to use one of the external ones I've already mentioned above. So, yeah, there's that...
NO Disputing that - However...

That is true of ANY device that takes microSD - it's not a unique dilemma. (In addition to my tablet, S7, and two of my three notebooks - both of which are HP Pavilions.) That has to do with the microSD format itself - it's NOT designed to be a "plug-repeatedly" format - the larger 64GB and above sizes that the S5 and later phones and tablets can swallow only make that more and more obvious. That is why I use the cloud - not microSD - to share common files among my hardware - and with cloud services such as Microsoft OneDrive being both OS-neutral and rather capacious - and especially with devices that don't support microSD at all - such as my GNex - they aren't left out. That is the rather amusing aspect about OneDrive - as long as I have Internet access and a compatible OS (which is every OS except a Linux distribution, a UNIX, or a BSD) I can get to my shared files anywhere - on the planet. (Even on a plane with wi-fi-based Internet access - such as Southwest - and I'm not kidding; I have, in fact, done so.) MicroSD is for files too LARGE for the cloud - or that will stored ONLY on a specific device - that is especially true of the 64GB and larger microSD cards, as they are only compatible with specific devices; while I can use such a microSD with the S7, it's size-incompatible with anything else. Otherwise, I use the cloud - and OneDrive in particular - it's compatible with all my hardware.
Right, so beyond going on about a question I didn't ask, your point?
I've traveled to many places where data services are either unavailable at all, or considerably more expensive than here in the US. That and wanting to avoid lugging along larger format media makes using microSD cards pretty convenient. Having an external microSD (or any other media card format) reader opens up another avenue for managing media.
As for online services, look no further than Photobucket's recent extortion fiasco to understand why depending on such service is not necessarily as glorious as you might expect.
Again, I asked about readers that'd work in the USB socket of the S7. And got a whole lot of entirely unrelated information instead of on-point replies. But after doing a lot of my own research elsewhere, and the purchasing of several bits of hardware, I came back and posted the results. Yet this invites still more unrelated replies. Please folks, I'm sure you think you mean well but a bit more on-topic focus would be greatly appreciated.
