I've read that people have gotten 4,6 and even 8 gb cards working on the tmobile dash but no where can I find how can someone help me with this. Ive had my dash for 2 days and am really liking it but this sd card thing is ticking me off.

Are you running WM6 or have you flashed to WM6.1? WM6/WM5 which would come pre-installed on your phone do not support SDHC cards only WM6.1 does so if you want one you will have to flash the ROM to a new one.
Yes mine came preloaded with wm6. is there a guide to flash to a new rom so I do the proper steps and don't brick my phone?

Search around on this site and you should be able to figure it out quite easily. Just do some reading that is the best way. You will probably need to do and SDA unlock and then you should be able to flash your ROM easily. I am running Ricky's V22 which I would recommend.
There are a ton of different sections that outline exaclty how to flash your ROM and I find its good knowledge to read through one of Ricky's or Kavana's threads just so you know what problems other people ran into.
Once you have read a bit about flashing and you still can't figure it out I am sure I could help you out.
Thank You I've been reading for the past two days solid in this forum. I've gotten as far as downloading everything (SDA_ApplicationUnlock,Tegic eT9 US English) along with about six different roms and doing a backup with sprite backup. Im just kind of chicken without instructions in front of me. I've done tons of flashes to my Motorola V3 and my sony ericsson, even unlocked a few of my phones but I had guides to where I could just follow the steps. Im good with directions LOL. Guess I will keep poking around till I grow some balls. thanks
v22 with or without opera? and does rickys have the bt headset fix and dun fix already implemented?

Its simple don't worry about it. If you run the SDA unlock and then pull out your SD card and do a reset, once the phone is back on all you have to do is go into one of the ROMs say Rickys and there will be an Auto.dat file run that and it will pretty much guide you step by step through everything. It will take you less then 10mins until you are up and running. You may need the Tegic eT9 US english after the ROM is installed, alot of the time the keys are set in UK mode.
Thank You when you say do a reset is that just turn off phone remove sd card and turn it back on or do I have to hit certain keys to do a reset?

Yeah reset as in just turn the phone off and back on again. As for opera or no it depends on your personal preference. Which internet browser do you like? do you use opera?
Yeah you will be able to you bluetooth with Rickys ROM.
Anyone mind posting which sdhc cards their currently using with the Dash?
2GB sandisk. I am curious which 4GB work. Is it all of them if you are on the 6.1 or is it still iffy?

SDHC will work on your dash if you have a WM6.1 ROM installed. SDHC is not supported by WM6 but 6.1 does support it.

Not true. The HTC official WM6 ROM supports SDHC cards...the T-mobile WM6 rom locks the phone at a maximum of 2GB. I'm using a 4GB Transcend card I purchased at Newegg last week with the HTC 1.33 WM6 Official ROM.
Hope this helps.

I am using an 8gb micro sdhc card and it works with no problems. Using WM 6.0, since I do not need the 6.1 update.
Some 6.0 roms work, but the official US ones do not. I am using one of the roms that needed bypassing the locked status of my phone.
US T-mobile sucks as far as new phones and rom support. SDHC is a perfect example. They are screwing US customers out, unless the 6.1 rom allows SDHC now.
i just got wm6.1 and was wondering which SD/SDHC card really works and will it work once i put it in the Dash or do i have to do something special?

You also could have searched, as this question has been answered at least 20 times in the last few months.
But seriously, its not that hard. Copy everything from the old card to your pc, stick the new card in the phone, and copy everything back. walla...
kinda piggie back on his question....Is 32gb the highest it supports?

FYI,
I have a Patriot 32GB Class 10 card but have issues with it. It will occasionally suffer some corruption and go into read-only mode. Luckily I have not lost any data yet as far as I can tell. Supposedly there is an issue with Android and Class 10. Wonder if others are experiencing this and if there is any "cure".

Could be a bad card. There are a lot of 32gb fakes out there.

I've had my patriot class 10 for a month and had zero issues with it. It's not a class 10 thing, it's a bad card thing. I read a lot of bad card reviews on newegg when I bought mine and only bought it after reading that buyers that had a bad card had no problem with returns or exchanges.
I'm receiving a Patriot 32gb sdcard today and moving to the Synergy 3.0 rom. The only files and folders I want to move over are the files needed for my phone and my nandroid backup. Is there a list of essential files and folders? I'm not worried about saving my apps, just want a base sdcard.

If you're switching to a new ROM you probably aren't concerned with saving app settings and such. If that is the case then you don't need to do anything other than copying over your nandroid.
I'd suggest formatting the new card from recovery to include swap and ext in case you ever want to use those partitions then mount the card from recovery, copy the files over and flash your new ROM.

I have a Patriot and a PNY branded 16G C10 and they have performed well. Transcend doesn't like the ext-ext3 from reviews and same with the one I had.
Your questions seem to have been answered already, but on a side note: If you can remember to treat the phone as any other external storage device you want to keep error free (or at least help prevent errors). Try to disable/disconnect from the computer first, before switching modes on your phone. Otherwise its just like taking the usb cable out of the computer while the external device still has communication. I know...it will usually be OK...usually..just sayin...have fun with the new card.
Also recommend doing the partition so that its there from the start, you don't want to have to copy all your stuff down the road with that size of a card!
As time goes on, my two year old EVO is just slow. So my question is sort of two parts. 1) is there any way to use a new sdxc card? I'd assume they'd work, though none are below 64 gigs. Is there any way to actually have the phone recognize the card even if all 64 gigs aren't? I've looked around, and I couldn't find any real answers to this. 2) with an sdxc card with ridiculous read write speeds, is it possible to go crazy and partition the card with 2 gigs free and use this in swap? If so I don't think I'd ever need to upgrade, but that seems too good to be true and I'm assuming it is. This is just my dumb thinking outloud, so any input would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure what an SDXC card is,i would guess a type of SD card,but it would be better to delete all of the crap on the SD card thats been present the whole time,which is whats slowing down your phone and probably the stuff on the internal as well,since you have 64GB,you can us 10 GB on the EXT and at least 2 GB on the swap.
I make a habit of formatting and repartitioning at least once a month.
Hey guys,
I read the thread by ThaGreatest regarding this MicroSD and it was veery useful, however, I don't want to bump a 4 month-old thread.
This is the MicroSD card that I am planning on ordering: http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter-SDSDQU-064G-AFFP-A/dp/B009QZH6JS
I used the search function and found a lot of people complaining about it, although, if I remember correctly, someone mentioned in some thread that simply formatting (from exFAT to FAT32) should do the trick. If this MicroSD isn't reliable, does anyone have any suggestions to good MicroSD cards that will work?
I am currently running the CM10.1 rom. I would appreciate it greatly if anyone who has used this MicroSD card and a custom rom could attest to how well it functions.
Thanks!
Anyone have any suggestions?
I recall a post at least a year back when these cards came out.
The simple solution is to format it with the device and it seems to work fine.
You can try digging it up and PMing the OP to see if it still works, if OP still has the device.
I am included to think it will work fine though.
It works pretty damn good. I have the 64gb card and now I can have multiple seasons of any show I have, tons of music and of course still have plenty of space for my apps. The read is descent at 12mb/s. I have the 10 class. U need a program like easeus partition manager to format the card into fat32. Hope this was helpful

Thanks for the replies, guys. I think I'm going to pick it up soon.
I had the Galaxy Note 4 since released and I really should have stayed on Jellybean. I hate not having full access to my ExtSDCard and while I have tried Foldermount and custom roms (using Alliance Rom Currently)I still can't figure this out. 30gigs or 64gigs isn't enough storage for me. I leaned toward the Android devices because of the external option. Honestly I hate the phone now. Had I known this was going to be the route Android was going to to take, I would have made other choices. I have searched for fixes all over the internet, youtube, XDA and I can not find anything that helped. If there is anyone with a SPRINT NOTE 4, running Lollipop that has been successful in getting the external sd cards to work, Please let me know. I am ready to make this phone a very expensive door stop!
I know some of you will bash me for not searching I HAVE.
I know some won't agree, remember this is my personal experience.

What do you mean by not having full access to the ExtSDCard? I can do w.e I want on my sd card with Root Explorer, and if you need access for Titanium Backup then try this app, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix&hl=en

Ummm yeah, where to start. First it came with KitKat. this phone now is way more amazing on alliance with emotion kernel than when I got this phone on launch day. I've had zero and I mean zero problems on a custom lollipop rom moving anything around from a 128gig sd, especially alliance which is amazing. I can't possibly leave alliance ever and go back to the horrible colors of lollipop. My phone craps all over every other phone unless I were to run into someone that has a rooted/romed/kernel note 4 that has done as much to it as I have.... Still probably craps on it, LOL. KitKat had the problems with access to sd but that was fixable with root, but u didn't have to have a custom rom if u didn't want to. Lollipop corrected the sd limits that KitKat screwed up. I use folder mount but probably not what ur looking for. I use it because I have a lot of big games and the internal sd goes pretty quick so folder mount will move and link the big data folder for that game to the external sd.
Either u have some kind of hardware issue like maybe a fake sd card or something is wrong with the phones hardware and need an exchange, or should just go back to an iPhone.
SD Card not working on lollipop.... it could be damaged!

Thanks for the reply, while I also had the note 3, I am probably getting the OS confused. So yes, you are correct. The 4 did come with KitKat. Jellybean was the last OS I did not have SD card R/W issues with. I too love the Alliance rom, its fabulous but I cannot understand why my SD card refuses to work. I reformatted it and tried it with several other Roms just as well. I do know its a SanDisk 64gig which appears to be original. I will purchase a new one and give that a try. Although, I would like to think I wouldn't purchase a fake SD card, at least not intentionally.
Follow-Up: (4:46am): SO I tried an old SD Card SanDisk 16gigs and Whella!!! I use FX File Explorer and enabled Write Access and was able to create a new folder without issues. It is not an ULTRA XC card like the 64gb card but at least I know that it isn't the phones hardware and I also checked to ensure the 64gb was an original and from the videos I have reviewed it appears to be. It could very well be damaged. I placed the non-working sd card in my pc and I received a message "There is a problem with this drive fix & repair to prevent data loss" or something to that effect. I tried to run the repair program and it didn't work. I have chalked this experience up to "a damaged SD card"; however, I was able to copy everything on it to a folder on my PC and will be transferring it to a new card. I am interested in 128gb as well, if you can offer the brand you are having so much success with, I'd appreciate it.

Glad to here I figured out out. I have a 128 gig SanDisk with the highest r/w speed,. They made several versions so shop around.
I am stock Lollipop without root and X-plore file manager works perfect for me.
