Hello all,
Ive got a spare 16GB Micro SDHC card which i have swapped for the stock 2GB version that came with the Desire, but it is only a Class 2.
Having read that its best to use Class 6, should i shell out £50 for a new one, or will i not notice a difference in class ?
Dunno - I'm using a class 2 16gb card myself and I don't notice much slowdown if at all. I'm surprised these things haven't come down in price after two years... key thing is do you notice any slowdown with apps that access the SD card? like I say, I haven't thus far...

i read somwhere that class 4 is enough coz the phones do not support hihger speeds. class 6 will help you if you will take card to the card reader straight to the computer... it think

Thats what i ......... think. Im sure it only matters if its connected to the PC, and in that case i dont care.
I read it on another forum that i wont link too
Class 6 are almost double the price of Class 2.
You don't NEED to get one, I did use a Class 2 card for a few days and didn't have any problems.
Personally I am using a Class 6 now, as I regularly transfer a lot of big media files onto the card, so the extra speed is worth it for me.
If you don't fancy forking out though, you don't have to.
I totally agree, My desire came with a 4gb sandisk class memory card which I initially assumed was class 4 until I took the card out yesterday...connecting the desire to my pc and switching to usb drive mode, i am able to transfer my movies etc to the memory at +/- 8Meg per sec which is more than adequate enough for me...I was about to get a 16gb one but was thinking of getting the class 6 one until i discovered the one I currently have is class 2, so I just made up my mind and went for a class 2 16gb, saved me money....
They only refer to the write speed of the card, i came from a 8gb class 6 and now have a 16gb class 2 and notice no difference, only difference is the write speed from pc to card.
Even though i got a class 2 i still see 4-6mb/s so happy enough with that.
I have a class 10 16Gb card in phone. Read and write speeds seem to be limited to around 8Mb per second (copying uncompressed music). Using an adapter, the computer is able to copy at 14Mb+ using the same card.
They just seem a big outlay for nothing to me, lets face it the only big write time is when you transfer everything across from your previous card once the stuff is on there the write times really won't be much of a problem.
The main reason you will find people suggesting class 6 and above SD cards is due to "Apps to SD". For the Newbies "Apps to SD" or A2SD is a modification that has been done on most android phones (though not the desire at time of writing) which allows the Apps you download to be stored on the SD card rather than the phones limited internal memory. I am not sure if it makes a huge difference to the faster processor phones, but in the G1 days it was noticeable. For just moving music and pictures about it isn't really important to have a faster card and we may have to wait a while for A2SD anyway. I will pop over to the N1 forum and see if they can shed some light on this.
Anyone using a microSD 16GB Class 4, if so are they any good? I'm looking at buying one for the Desire. Also where's the best place to get a deal on one of these card?
hi, i hope this is right place to put this and also to let you know i did do a search of the forum and couldn't find an answer...
i just bought a 32 gb sandisk micro sd card and inserted it into my galaxy s, i have tried to add thing to this via my pc and also via astro on my phone, each time it seems to get a little of the way and then the external sd card unmounts its self (at least i think thats whats happning ) and then i get an error on my pc saying the read/right disc was unreadeable, then my pc says that the external memory needs formatting before i can continue use, if i then go back into my phone i notice te external memory is no longer mounted, this is driving me mad, if anyone can help please do before i throw my phone out the window lol....i am using a rooted galaxy s with 8gb onboard memory
It sounds like you have a bad card. I would return it for a new one.
Let me guess, eGay. . . . .
I have 2 fakes sitting right here. . . . This is a huge scam.
Buy memory from reliable sources only.
my 16Gb card is a 1Gb in reality.
Hmmm...did you make sure that the USB mode is set to debug and then the dial up mode is off. This same thing happened to me last night. Make sure that's done. Restart the phone and THEN plug the cable in. I'm guessing it keeps flipping out and there's a red pyramid in the upper left hand corner?
Bad Memory
I believe you got a "fake" memory. I have experience of this before. A lot of programmer will be able to re-program the card from 2G to 32G or whatever the capacity they want. just google it, there is a free program will be able test it and tell you the real capacity your card has it. if the price is incrediblely low, there will be a problem. if you got it from ebay, just dispute it and get your money back.
Look for the program h2testw, it will tell you actual capacity of your card, likely 64-512mb only.
Yes, scams. You should only buy to respective shops. Sadly some of my friends bought things like 10pcs. Too bad they got scammed. I learned my lesson and it is just somehow like 3-5$ difference.
I'd say stick to Newegg and Amazon for memory purchases.
Which is the best company for 32 gig class 10's
I've bought 8GB and 16GB cards from those Chinese deal sites. They worked out alright. They weren't too experience. But I agree, if you want a 32 GB card, go buy a reliable brand from a credit-worthy source.

I'd say Sandisk is the best quality memory card you can buy. Class 2 and 4 Sandisk work great for WP7 or for running Android off of on a HD2. Class 2 and 4 cards generally have a better random access speed than class 6 or 10 cards. You only want higher class cards for digital cameras where you are writing a lot of file sequentially. For running operating systems where itneedsto read small amounts of data from many parts of the card quickly, a quality class 2 or 4 card works best.

You should test the card with CrystalDiskMark and HD Tach to get the random read and write speeds and random access time. I'm curious as to how the class 10 Lexar rates in those speeds.
what do you guys think of this brand? decent? new time sd card purchaser...

Looks like garbage. Stick with trusted brands like SanDisk, Transcend, Kingston, PNY, etc..

I agree with Pheno.menon but the price might be worth the shot. Just make sure you use Paypal. I have tried a few of these even named brand and had the file with Paypal to get my $ back. You also want to test the speed if you get get one. I had one marked as a class 6 but wasn't even a class 2. Made the phone freeze up.
I remember reading about a delay when unlocking the screen whenever an SD card was installed. Can't seem to find anything about it now though. Anybody know what I'm talking about?
I get the slight delay but the thing with mine is i get the delay whether my sd card is in or not.

I remember back in the day on the G1 when you had to run apps to sd and partition your card. I bought a supposed class 6 8gb card on eBay for cheap. It was definitely slower than my Sandisk class 2. I'm using a 32gb class 4 SanDisk I conned my buddy out of his Thunderbolt. Must say so far I like it. Try craigslist. I know I picked up a 16gb for cheap a while ago...
I bought this one from ebay.

higher class number means higher write speeds, but that doesn't always mean better read speeds.
IMO higher class cards are better when your doing photography and video stuff
I read my card more often than write to it so a lower class card with better read speeds is better for me.

I got a sandisk 32GB class 4. It is plenty fast enough. I record pics/video to onboard phone storage anyways. I store vids, music, etc on the sd card and it reads very fast. I haven't move any apps to sd card because we have plenty onboard memory.
what's a good price for a 32GB class 4 microSDHC? i've been waiting for about 2 weeks for a deal to be posted on SD, but haven't seen one yet.
amazon is selling a sandisk for $37. i'm wondering is i should just buy this?
Bestbuy has the Kingston class 4 32gb for 42.99? Do you all think that's a good deal? I know amazon has the Sandisk 32gb class 4 for 37, but i has mixed reviews.

Yes, you can. You can get one from any of the trusted companies, just search for the one with the best price. Also make sure you get a class 6 or class 10. It's going to be expensive for a 64 GB class 6/10, but if you're going for such a high capacity card then you should definitely get one with a higher class rating. Class rating is nothing but the minimum write speed that the card can achieve. You can see the difference while transferring large files. If you get a class 2 or class 4, your write speeds will be low. Imagine transferring ~58.5 GB (which is the actual capacity you'll get with a 64 GB card) at such low speeds. It'll take forever. The microSD cards that come shipped with phones are usually class 2 or at best class 4. It's always better to get a higher class because the performance will be better, especially during large file transfers and when the phone is accessing the SD card.
According to your phone's specifications on gsmarena, it supports cards up to 64 GB, so there's no problem of compatibility.

The Sandisk 64gb SDXC it's working well for me over the past month. I did follow the recommendations of formatting it as FAT32. The read/write speed of this card is much much faster than SDHC. Look for specials on this card. Got mine from tiger direct for $49 about a month ago shipped free. Just looked on Amazon and see the price is now $49.
That said, I have had issues with older/slower Sandisk cards failing on two occasions in the past. Sandisk will swap them out but it's a pain.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Just put the card in your phone, go to Settings>Storage and format it there. Also, the Galaxy S3 supports the exFAT format, which allows for single files larger than 4GB to be stored. Fat32 has a 4GB limitation. You can also get a card reader for your computer, put this card in it and format it just like you would do for a flash drive. You can either format it as Fat32 or exFAT, as both will work. Depends on your usage i.e. if you plan to keep files larger than 4GB (like HD movies). Since you got such a huge card I figure that's your purpose anyway, so format it as exFAT. If you're using Windows, do a quick format rather than a full format (will take forever).

There are some kernel that supports exfat. You can just flash the kernel.
Not that it matters much, or maybe it will. I bought this one for my phone, also have it in my DSLR. It's a class 10 card which means it's super fast. Allows me to record 1080p HD video on my camera with no lag. So I picked one up for my phone as well. Bit smaller storage space than what you wanted, but I have never come close to filling it.

32GB Samsung C10 is around $20ish and well worth it. Ive been using the same one for years and thats why I love phones w/ card slots. Switching devices isnt a nightmare when everythings saved to your card.

Nothing is wrong with a 32gb class 4, but do you really want to bottle neck your 600-700$ s4 to 1mbps write speeds when it can record around 17mbps? It'll only cost around 20 something bucks for class 10, by no means a priority in anyone's life but in the case of this Particular user looking to purchase, if he has the spare cash I advise him to a class 10 32gb.

I also recommend 32GB class 10.
You will need it also for shooting full hd videos.
I too have a Sandisk Ultra 32 GB class 10 I got on sale for $30 ($50 off MSRP) at a local office supply store last minute before a vacation. Since I bought it, I have seen it cheaper online, but I didn't really have time to wait. I had just upgraded from an 8 GB class 4 that I have been using for about 3 phones now. The new card also came with another SD adapter so I can put the card into the reader on my laptop. I already had one adapter from my old card, but having two is nice when transferring files between two cards.
I have a little boy so I am always taking pictures and videos of stuff he is doing or funny faces he makes, and I can tell you first hand that moving pictures and videos around into different folders in the gallery is WAY faster now. I also have a photo frame widget on my home screen that cycles through some pictures, and on reboot, the photos populate the frame sometimes before the stock clock widget even comes up. I can only imagine if apps are running from the SD card that would be massively improved too.
I've been using the Samsung Ultra 64gb card since day 1 & it's been working flawlessly.

I use a 64GB Samsung Pro(no such thing as Ultra^). Don't beelieve the advertised speed of 70/30, I get R/W: ~18.26MB/13.17MB. The SanDisk 64GB and 32GB models had production problems with a some bad batches, so it's up to you if you want to risk getting old stock from a store that might be bad. Other than that, just remember to get Class 10 UHS-1. Apparently AOSP doesn't support ExFat so you'll have to format it to Fat32 if you want to use that.
One reason to use 32GB would be for the supposedly higher speeds available such as the SanDisk Extreme variant which is twice as expensive. Don't believe the advertised 80/50 either.

SanDisk* not Samsung like he posted. That Ultra is also slower than the Samsung Pro. The SanDisk Extreme might be a tad faster but don't believe the 80/50 claims.
Is you must get the 64gb I recommend class 10. Fastest write/read speed. If not, you can buy maybe a class 6. Hope I helped.
