As you guys know the HTC One X doesn't have micro sd storage slot. So if you upgrade from like say HTC Sensation then you got your bigger sd card left or you need sell it together with your old phone.
Company i've sold my Desire to only require the phone, so my memory card is now in a USB reader and being used to transfer files about.
I could use it for that to. I could put it in an microsd sd adapter and use as spare sd card.
But there is no way I need 3 sd cards. I already got an 640GB external hard drive. I just now just ask the buyer if he was interested in it,
I will sell it together with my phone..
I'll upload whatever is on it first to dropbox and Google music and then wipe it clean ready for whoever I give my sg2 to
I'll probably put it in my prime.

I will put a 4 Gig card in my sensation and sell it and put a lot of mp3s on my 16 Gig card and put it in my car stereo
the only card i had was the free 16gb Sandisk (class 2 probably) from the Droid 1, and since they are selling 64 GBs now and i have no use for one anyway, it went to NY today with my GS2.
fortunately i have a tablet that i can use it on.
Shred them? I've got so many of them laying arround variating from 2-32gb...
I'll keep the old device with me ... But if I need to upgrade, I will keep my 16gb for my needs, and sold my 2gb with the phone. It don't worth to sell because the price will drop.

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.
Can someone confirm what size the memory card is in the box?
Sorry in advance for posting a frequently answered question. Just ordered a T mobile one today..
This depends on the provider.
Some people on forum said that they had 4GB in the box, but at least one person said that it was 2 GB, and HTC themselves say that it suppose to be 8GB, so lets take the average and say that it should come with 4GB.
The MicroSD card is a Sandisk Class 2 4GB card when ordered direct from T-Mobile. Or at least that's what I got.
I got mine from CPW and it was a 4GB Microsd card... but it was already inside the phone which did confuse me for a while when i was looking at the box contents.
The distributor can bundle which ever size card they want to, usually which ever they feel will make them the profit they want.
A got a 4GB Class 2 with my T-mobile version of the Desire.
If upgrading I would recommend you go for a Class 6 MicroSD card at least. I used one of these and it made a tremendous difference with my HTC Hero. That phone was routed of course and I had apps. stored to the microSD card. If you look around you can get a 8GB Class 6 for about £12.
hey Guys, i had two types of mark, a sandisk and kingston with both 32gb and both with the same problem.
What happens is this, I insert a microsd to miniSD adapter and put it in the laptop, transfer 4GB of music, it takes HOURS, when it ends, the files automatically erases, dissapear from sd card.
Anyone know please tell me why it happens?
Unfortunately that usually means the sd card is a fake, they are allover ebay. Basically they alter a 4gb card to make it show as 32gb.
I'd try and get a refund for the card if I was you!

Hi,
I wanted to get a new microSD card for my Droid 2 global.
I wanted to get a 32gb micro SD card, since this is the maximum expandable size. They sell pretty cheap on ebay. I wanted to know if they are all the same size and will fit in my phone. Would something like this work?

Thanks in advance!
i wouldnt buy memory items off of ebay, they are known to be fake and you will just lose money, get them off of amazon or newegg.
and yes, all micro sd cards are the same size, just make sure you dont accidentally buy a regular sized sd card, they dont fit in our phones
You may also want to check and make sure what class the card is (I think 4 is what I have now, not sure min class for the D2).
Higher the class on the microsd, higher the price. (Wikipeida)wiki/Secure_Digital#Speed_Class_Rating for more info on it, and where to find it. Usually no class rating means class 2

1. Do NOT buy class6 or greater microsd, it WON'T work with your phone.
2. I read elsewhere that sandisk memories does work.
3. Buy from amazon or newegg.

I just bought this device with 32 gigs space from Amazon for 17 euros. Pretty good deal.
I have a galaxy note, fantastic device, but I'm tired of touch screen only input. It drives me nuts.

I just picked up a 32GB Kingston Micro SD Card. My Macbook reads it but says I don't have write permissions. The card is formatted in MS-DOS (FAT32). I can't figure out how to edit the permissions so I can add files so I can root and flash my Galaxy S2.
EDIT: Wife failed to mention that she slide the "lock" option down! Sorry. MODS can close.
Next thing, test every sector especially if you bought it off ebay. Ebay sells lots of fake kingdton 32gb cards especially around the £32 range. Spend £40 for a genuine branded class 10 instead on Amazon. I've been ripped twice, so this tone around,i did the test and returned the card. The fake cards generally report 1gb upon critical test
