As far as i can see the artemis is not compatible with SDHC cards, this may be possible with a patch or rom upgrade - so guys dont rush out and buy one it most probably will not work.

damn it. I'm super interested in one of these. fingers crossed

think its more hardware support that you need for SDHC, not entirly sure of this though

I read on another site that SDHC is basically FAT32 rather than FAT16.
If this is the case does that mean it could or couldn't be handled in software?

MicroSD / MicroSDHC [2/?]

Dear All,
I am trying to unravel the many MicroSD and MicroSDHC questions/answers that are being posted.
To put it into simple terms I have bought a 4GB MicroSDHC card for storage. I can understand that this will not work with the standard MicroSD hardware but is it possible now or could it be possible in the near future to D/L a patch/driver and uploaded/install to make the card work or does this involve a physical hardware change.
Secondly, are there 4GB or even higher MicroSD cards available on the market 2 GB are just not enough.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
jsthomson.

...at any rate, the answer to your questions are both yes

MicroSD, not MicroSDHC, so the answer is no

So which one is it...YES or NO
Regards,
Steve Thomson

There are 4 GB and higher MicroSDHC but not MicroSD. MicroSDHC is a new hardware specs and software patch/firmware will not enable compatibility.

re:
my friends i buy a microSDHC 4Gb...
and works with my Trinity, not 100% but it's works

What do you mean "not 100%"?

anyone got a link to the 4gig MicroSDHC I hear that it works fine ont htc titan aka mogul I wanna buy it

Will artemis support 16 GB Microsd....

I have one question, not on original rom but on the Micro SDHC supproted any cooked ROM will support 16 GB or NOT?
Tell me if anybody knows,
If yes i want to buy it......
I know 8 GB is supported in Artemis SDHC supported ROMs,
I own 4 GB now...

It supports SDHC or not, you can always partition your SD.

but i have micro sd card slot not a sd card slot

I hope you understand it now

If your device supports SD2.0 (SDHC) then it will take any MicroSDHC size up to 32GB. Hope that helps

That's the que I m asking that in the factory made original ROM this Artemis dont support more than 2gb, but after an upgrade by a little software or any sdhc supported ROM it's supporting upto 8 gb. So, as Htc says its not SD2.0 compatible.
So after that also(after upgrading) will it support 16 GB.
That's my que.

Does microSDHC faster in real word ?
Such as record VDO, Take a picture, activesync...

I thought I answered your question. Any device that takes a SDHC card WILL take anything up to 32GB MicroSDHC.

you said you have 4gb card, it is SDHC, so you can put the 16gb card, you can also put a 32gb if you can find one.

Thanks man
so my artemis will support 32 GB
fantastic

where did you found the 16gb card?
I made a search and not found to buy one.

idk if it helps any1, but i have 16GB kingston in my artemis, rom is touch vanilla 4.0.2
it reads it well, i use it for music and all that, but sometimes it freakingly losing it, totally =( i have to soft-reset my device to death, like dozens of times to get my sd back. that's A problem, and idk what to do w/ it. trying to find a solution.
in a meanwhile setting up touch full with cube 4.0.2.

Kingmax : world's first 64GB microSD card

This would be a nice addition for our Galaxy S II
http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/26/kingmax-flaunts-worlds-first-64gb-microsd-card/

Does the SGSII support micro SDXC? I've read conflicting reports.

Nope, it only supports SDHC, not SDXC.
Any SD card over 32GB is an SDXC card. Which the SGS2 is not compatible with.

yea as far as i've read, sgs2 supports only up to 32gb sdcards.

why would u need such a cards.. 32g is more then enough, especially if u own 32gb version of device..

To each his own. I filled up my 16gb sdcard with music and podcasts...need more space

well as u know our device does not support more then 32gb sd cards, so...

Very silly question. if i had a 500gb microsd i could still fill it with ease.

Can 64GB sdcard put in Galaxy S2?

This is why there will be SGS 3

too bad it cnat read SDXC my 32 gb sdhc is almsot full after 2 days

why not? afaik, the hardware should be able to read it, just at lower speeds (as even a "SD 1.0" reader is able to read SDXC, you just need the drivers...), and android supports eXfat, too.... so it SHOULD support it.... but not quite sure about that.... greets

Sgs2 can only support up to 32gb max (microsd) ,so who cares about this crap
And tell me how you're going to install drivers on your phone... sigh

its nice to have a 64gb microSD SDXC .. the SDXC can be upgraded upto 2TB within 5~10years .. just imagine a phone with 2TB microSD

I think there's a lot of regurgitating of essentially "what the box says" in this thread. You are correct, the hardware interface of SDHC and SDXC is exactly the same, so our hardware completely supports these new cards. The question is in software, which is hard to tell from what I've read. Wikipedia has this little gem to say:
"Other operating system kernels, such as Linux, make no distinction between SDHC and SDXC cards, as long as the card contains a compatible filesystem."
Since Android does support exFAT as you point out, it seems fairly plausible that these new cards would work in the GSII.

Early micro SDHC devices only officially supported up to 16gb cards, but could read 32gb cards. So what it "supports" isn't clear, since drivers may not be needed at all.

My old Laptop, wich was supposed to only support max 2 GB "SD" Cards ("SD 1.0") got just recently a driver update, and now it reads my 32GB Micro "SDHC" cards ("SD 2.0") without any problems...

I've always been amongst the first to adopt higher storage micro SD cards (ever since the 4GB ones came out). At every step the official specs for phones only said compatible up to the previous highest storage amount, and yet they worked. This is a different standard, so higher chance it won't work, but nevertheless there is a chance they may work.

128GB micro sd memory card

Hi, does anyone know when microsd 64GB memory card will be in the market?

I'm assuming from the title you wanna know when a 128 sd card will be released as far as I know the galaxy s3 only supports cards up to 64gb (someone feel free to correct me) and they're out now.

Android support memory card up to 2TB (2000GB) so 128 GB is no problem for SGS 3
Sent from Samsung Galaxy S 2 (80GB)

128GB cards will work, as to when they'll hit the market who knows. I'm hoping no later than October-ish this year, which would be one year after the 64GB cards. I will get one at release regardless of cost and confirm they are working in various handsets for everyone. Cannot come soon enough for me, had my 64GB since a few days after they were released and just not adequate for my needs.

The Galaxy SII Skyrocket is only rated to handle a 32GB microSD card, but easily works w/64GB microSD cards also.
So I'd be willing to bet the SIII would do just fine with a 128GB card.
My wallet on the other hand... :silly:
btw these new emoticons kinda suck.

sgs3 supports sdxc, which supports storage sizes up to 2TB. 64GB just happens to be the largest sd card you can get in the market right now.

Any News on a Faster 64bd card than the class 10 ?
Thanks

Really enjoy(ed) your S3 review(s) and from your connectivity tests I can believe you would welcome a 128 (or bigger) microSD :fingers-crossed: .

2 tb?
are you serious. who needs that in a phone unless you have every song ever written on it? i can't get my s3 until december :crying: i'm on sprint with the epic 4g rooted of course. plus i'm waiting for the wireless charging kit anyway. just hope it's out by then. i heard around september it should be coming out. anyone heard anything different on that?

class 10 refer to minimum speed so anything above is still classified as class 10, although transcend has released a class 16, but that not official, according the the SDA, class 10 is the highest.

UHS-1 Micro SDs claim to run faster than class 10 and eventually we'll get UHS-2 which should be even faster.

uhs is only supported if the card reader supports this feature, sandisk also mention about this.
you can still use the same card in a non uhs compliant reader, but will only get the class 10 specification and speed.

It would be handy for people that want to play blurays either on their phone or through the HDMI out. Or for audiophiles that listen to lossless audio which takes up around 10 times the storage (which sound absolutely AMAZING with the wolfson DAC and voodoo). Or maybe they just want to never run out of storage?
A 32 gb card will only hold around 100-150 lossless songs, and an avg size mp3 you could have around 1000-1500. A HQ bluray rip avg size is around 8gb, which can only be played on SDXC because regular cards aren't formatted to allow playback of files over 4gb.

I'm sure I read somewhere S3 is UHS compatible.
