Hi,i bought an SD card from eBay,it supposed to be a 16gb class6 Samsung as in the picture and description.When it s finally arrived,it came with an SD adapter Samsung branded,but the micro SD it s withouth Samsung logo.So I tested It and the space is really 16gb,but the speed is not so good.So I tested it with sdtool under android,but can t understand if oem id or manufacturer Id is genuine from Samsung.I post a screenshot,can you help me?
Pic of card would be better. Chance are if you bought it from ebay it's a fake. Never buy memory cards from ebay!
I bought one off of ebay the other day, 8GB, so slow it is unbelievable. As posted above, never off ebay... NEVER.
Ok the seller offer me to replace with an original one or a mustang class 10.What about the mustang?seems pretty good in performance tests

Can the HTC Touch take 4GB MicroSDHC cards?
i heard that the newer ppc's should support it. I hope im right
anyone else know anything about this?
The specifications for the HTC Touch says it supports the standard "SD 2.0". This standard includes SDHC (Cards from 4-32gb), and have seen a few users say they are using a 4gb card in their touch (search will reveal who).
Here (DK) the only 4gb MicroSDHC card available is Class 2, so I wont be going for the 4gb (or 8gb for that matter) card until I can get atleast Class 4, preferably Class 6.
You can read more about SDHC in general on wikipedia.
Hi,i'm actually using 4gb microsd HC from SanDisk.
Everything work perfect without any problem.
Mine Touch have Italian software but i don't think different language firmware could have limitations about memory size....i hope
Bye.

were did you buy it?
Tanks
Hi,from ebay the object number is :160135130187 but maybe now you'll find more than this model cause the demand is growning......and maybe the price will be lower.
8 gb sdhc actually used in a touch, anybody ?
has anybody actually used an 8 gb micro sdhc card in a touch yet?
i know there was some discussion about the availability of this size card, and that it was available for quite a few pounds(dollars for me), and i believe someone had purchased it, but never really heard of the results.
if someone has please post, and please let us know where it was purchased and for how much. also, if outside us whether you know if it can be delivered to the usa.
thanks in advance

Did you test the card? E.g. fill it up to over 2gb, like 2.5gb and then see if the phone writes on it etc. 'Cause the picture on Ebay appears different from the one that Verizon carries which should be the real one.
It is good that it works on the Touch, since I just ordered a Touch. I've tested my card, it works flawlessly on the TyTN and I filled it up to test.
Test done
Just end the fill up test on SDHC 4 gb,no problem it works
I've made some copy of 98mb files and also 2 copy of tomtom map file (about 518mb) now memory info report just 84.03 mb free and 3794.47 used of 3878.50 total space on microSd card.
Thank to Doni for suggest me the test.
Pls guys forgive my poor english.

how significant is class 2 and class 6 micro sdhc cards? compared to the standard 50x micro sd cards.
the class 6 micro sd sdhc doesnt come cheap but the class 2 and class 4 seems reasonable..
I got the 4GB Sandisk card today and it works well.
£29.99 including p&p on play.com at the minute....
Damnit, knew I should have waited...

That's a SD not a SDHC card. It will still work though.
You can get the 4Gb SDHC card on eBay for £32 and you also get a Micro SD to SD Card Adapter and a SDHC USB Card reader in with the price

The fact that its 4GB means it has to be SDHC... The HC stands for High Capacity
maybe not.
there is a 4gb sd and 4gb sdhc.
have just got a 4GB SDHC Micro Sd card from Amazon including an sd to micro adapter and a sandisk micromate (adapter type thing not used yet) for £24.95 + p+p in total came to less than £30.
Works fine for me so far despite HTC telling me they only support 2 GB cards, mine is an MDA touch from Tmonile but I dont think that will make much difference.

No he's right. On research I find SD only goes up to 2Gb. The SDHC uses FAT32 file system to be able allow higher capacities. 8Gb card coming out next year.
Anyway, for me extra 2 squids I got a couple of adaptors.
I had a Kingston 8GB Micro SD SDHC which worked perfectly on my Kaiser. But after losing it, I ended up buying a replacement on ebay and the transference speed is incredible slow. I copied 1.5 MB of pictures, and it took like 10 seconds; 3 songs took like 5 minutes, maybe more.
Do SDHC cards need to be formatted in a certain way, or do they need something to make it work faster? I want to be sure before sending it back for a refund.
Note. I used the card reader and the USB adapter, I haven't even put it in my Kaiser, so they problem can't be related to the phone.

Do you know what the class speed of the new card is? The class speed is the transfer rate of the card.
Class 2 = 2mb/sec
Class 4 = 4mb/sec
Class 6 = 6mb/sec
Thanks, but even if it were the slowest class, isn't 5 minutes for 3 songs, too slow? The songs were like 3mb each.
I would agree that yes it is slow. I also wouldn't set those transfer rates in stone.
Are you sure the card you bought is original ?
Because there are so many fake memory card on ebay and personaly i wouldn't trus ebay for buy memory card
maybe formating the card with an other cluster size helps...
ebay scammed me twice for memory, once with a sandisk cruzer and another with a sony pro duo. they rebrand oem ****ty ones with the casing and sell it for double the amount. be careful man. you might want to defrag it too, that will help tramendously. also, turn off encryption if youre on wm6.1 pro. encryption makes reading anything a drag.
Not to steal your thread, but didnt want 2 threads on similiar topics.
I'm looking to buy an 8GB micro sd card. What class should I buy: 2,4, or 6? Also what brand: Sandisk or Kingston?
Buy the fastest you can get but not if 6 is double the cost of 4. Brand doesn't matter in my opinion because Kingston and Sandsik are both good. I had a Kingston and now i have a Sandisk.

If you have warranty and not satisfied you can always change it, if not try reformating on a PC
Good luck,
Thanks for all your answers. I learned my lesson, never get a micro card from ebay, let alone from one of those Hong Kong sellers. I tried to reformat the card and it took hours. Contacting the seller took days and now they want me to send them the card so the can send me a replacement card instead of a refund.
Right now Newegg is selling a class 6 8GB micro card for $16.00: link but it's just the card and from A-DATA (?). I bought a Kingston card from newegg also ($20.00) and that one works great.
Upgrading your sd card can be a pain, what type, size do i buy, its a difficuilt one, is it compatable with my device, well i cant awnser this but i can help you to buy from a genuine sandisk retailer so u dont end up with a fake, visit this site http://www.sandisk.co.uk/retail-buy
i bought an sd card once and there is a test app you can use to test your sd card to see if it is fake, forgot what its called now
my 32gb class 6 card was genuiine! for £23
Hey All,
There are lots of mixed reviews about the support for Galaxy Tab 3 7.0. in terms for micro sd cards compatibility... Is anyone running a 64gb sd with no problems?
I am running a 16gb with no issues at all, however I have cheap 64gb which will not copy the correct data & corrupts most of the time...I believe this is due to being a rubbish quality/copy...
If there is anyone out there that is running a 64gb with no issues, please confirm the spec!
Thanks in anticipation.
The cheap 64GB card is likely counterfeit. It is probably a 16 GB card hacked to appear to be a 64 GB card. This happened to me. Bought a counterfeit Sandisk from an Amazon seller. It looked really, really, real...but I kept having issues and once the subject of counterfeits was brought to my attention, I noticed the packaging said Made in China while the card said Made in Taiwan - Sandisk doesn't make any SD cards in Taiwan. Before I realized that, I bought a cheap class 10 Samsung off of eBay, that was fake too. Buy from a reputable retailer. Google a Windows app called H2testw if you want to confirm whether your SD card is a 64 GB card.
I have a T211 and am using a 64GB card I bought at Fry's. After formatting it inside the tablet, it worked fine, although after I initially transferred ~37GB from my PC directly to the card, I put it in the tab, and from then on my PC recognizes the card as read only. But I can write data to the SD Card as long as it is inside the tab.
are 128gb cards supported?
Hi, im searching for 128GB micro SD card (because my 64 sandisk have died and wasnt enough)
After some research I have decided to go for Samsung rather than Sandisk as more reliable.
Im looking for a genuine one but super afraid to choose wrong with all these cheap ones on eBay..
I've tried to order from Samsung it self but couldn't find out how..
Can someone please help me find a 100% reliable genuine SD card?
Thanks.
