[Q] Which card is better? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This: http://datacomp.sk/kingston-micro-sdhc-16gb-class-4-adapter_d82251.html

Kingston was always a reliable card. I had it with my previous phones.
But A-Data is better specs wise and it is reliable, too. Class 10 will be faster than class 4 and A-Data is reported to be one of the class 10 cards working flawlessly with the Desire.
I'd go with the A-Data.

I can join this opinion.

Both are reputable memory manufacturers so I'd go with the more favorable price/warranty ratio.

Well, this is interesting behavior. I transcoded all Ambient Nights from 320 kBps MP3 into 192 kBps aacPlus. The moment I copied them onto SD card, performance of entire phone went to hell. Any idea why?

Just for your info, this is my ADATA 8Gb class 10 result, on Stock rooted Gingerbread..

I just checked card for bad sectors. None.

JACKOPT! File name format was causing slowdown. When I changed it to 01. artist - track all is working again. Now, since I have hundreds of tracks to rename, do you know good freeware software that we will do it?

I think Media monkey could pull that off.

I would prefer Partiot:

Previous one was Transcend 8 GB class 6. No problems with that either. Quite fast. Even comparing to the latest Class 10 card.
You should also remember a nice company Sandisk. Their class 2 cards are faster than any class 10 cards for small files. And I have a reason to believe that it would speed up custom ROMs from sd-ext a lot.

I bought this one: http://www.qcomp.sk/shopping/product_details.php?idp=abC4310711
Anyway, I used Rename Master.

Great price.

And I had to pay for mine class six one five euros more... congratulations to your choice, anyway.

Well, it wasn't because of file name. The only reason I can think of is audio format. I'll see more tomorrow. Wish me luck.
P.S.: I can't get more than 5 MBps from card while in phone. But the card itself is workin as should; I get speeds between 10 MBps to 12 MBps.

Yep, it was file format. Now I'm back to business.
Question: Desire doesn't have SD specification v3.0?

[Q] SD Card problem

Hi all.
I have a 32 gb class 6 card (Topram) which I purchased about 2 weeks ago. I partitioned it with a ext2 and converted to an ext3 and had been running Mik 3DSupersonic with a2sd with no problems. Today I was copying the contents of the card to my computer using a card reader and something went wrong. Upon inserting the SD card back into the phone it was unrecognized. I have tried partitioning it with my phone through RA Anon recovery (it completes almost instantly) unsuccessfully and also through my Windows 7 computer without success. Are there any tricks I can try or is this brand new card shot?
Thanks for any insight.
I can pretty much guarantee you have a fake card. Where did you purchase it from?

Really? It was working fine for over 2 weeks. I purchased it through buy.com from a third party seller. I doubt it.
Yeah sounds like a 2gb card hacked to read 32gb until you try filling it up past the 2gb. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it?

If you're right it had to be bigger than a 2gb because I had upwards of 9 gb on it when it was working. I paid $46.75 Here's the link http://www.buy.com/pr/product.aspx?sku=219375390
I've contacted Topram about a warranty replacement. I'll keep you posted on the outcome.

Topram is really not a very good brand. SanDisk is the only manufacturer that actually has a working 32gb card out right now.

I learned my lesson now. I wouldn't have even considered it except it had very good reviews.
i have a small question about sd cards, i have a sandisk 8gb class 4 sd card that i am using and i used the app SD Tools to test the speeds of my card and my results were as if the class of my card was higher than 4.....but i dont fully understand what speeds are for each class, from what i have read a class 4 should have 4mb of write speed, but mine ranges from 8-10 on the tests...does that mean my card is like a class 8 or 10?...if anyone could clear this up for me that would be awesome...ill put a screenshot of my test results if that would help also...

What makes you think they're fake? (Legit question on my part since I know it happens was just curious why these)
I have a patriot class 10 card in one of my digital cameras (8GB flavor) that has been rock solid and fast.

cause i thought verizons 32gb where 150$.... and is there a cheaper 32gb but class 4?
32GB Class 10 For $32's nott bad, as long as it stands the test of time, and Samsung has a Class 10 for 90, Theirs Also A-Data who has a 32 gig class 10 and class 4(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211535) that might be up your alley .
I have had 5 A-Data class 6-10 and they have all performed flawlessly, from my Hero, to my Evo, to my Epic 4gt.
Just throwing Some information out there.
The reason Verizon's card is $150 is the because the charge you MSRP...

Soon as you receive the card, use H2testw 1.4 to test the card ( it will take some time ). If the card fails then contact the seller for a refund. If you have problems then open a dispute with Paypal ( hope you paid using Paypal ).

The seller is top-rated 99.99%, I doubt it is fake.
I own this card and the image looks real. Ridicilously cheap though.

Plus it comes with a free reader for that extra boost of speed coping stuff to/from it from the computer.

another method u can check and find out if the card is real or fake is if u download sd card tester from goople play and that will also tell u wether its a real card or a fake 1 by validating the write and reading speeds.

You can get a class 10 SanDisk for cheaper than that.

It's not a good deal, at all.
actually it is a good deal. depending on where in the WORLD you are.
now in the USA that price is horrible. $18-$22 is the going price for a 32gb (uhs-1 ultra card)
but in say africa that might be a FANTASTIC price. so it depends on where he is ordering from.
Wouldn't rely on them too much. It's a Chinese manufacturer sent straight from there, I've gotten other things such as accessories from there but would trust memory cards.
