Hi just wanted to knw if anyone knew the max storage card u can take on the mda compact 3 coz im thinking of getting a 2gb card but not sure if it can take it.
i certainly hope it does, because i just ordered one this afternoon.
and im sure ppl in this forum are using one.
Been using a 2gb sandisk for three weeks now and it works - aside from the problems outlined in this thread (which seem to manifest on all different sizes of cards).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285511
I've done a lot of searches, but I haven't found any thread that solves my doubts...
I have a 2 GB Sandisk MicroSD in my HTC P3300 and it works perfectly (in fact I never suffered the corruption bug), but this is very few storage for me so I need a 4 GB memory card. My questions are:
1st - Does it exist any 4 GB MicroSD (not MicroSDHC)? I've readen some posts talking about them and I've seen some links in eBay shops, but nobody has confirmed if they are fakes. Anybody could tell me if 4 GB MicroSD exist and where to buy them?
2nd - If you have a 4 GB MicroSD, have you tested it in your HTC Artemis? Does it work? Have you got WM5 or WM6? Official or "non-official" ROM?
3rd - If you have a 4 GB MicroSDHC, have you tested it in your HTC Artemis? Does it work? Have you got WM5 or WM6? Official or "non-official" ROM?
I've opened a poll to know more clearly if I have the possibility to upgrade my storage card or I'll have to bear with that poor 2 GB Sandisk... Please, vote and write a post telling which brand/model of Artemis and MicroSD/MicroSDHC do you have and what operating system and ROM version do you use
Sorry for my bad english, I hope you haven't suffered to understand this message
Thanks
Nobody has tested a 4 GB MicroSD/MicroSDHC in his Artemis? I cannot believe it!
Regards
Someone did test a 4gb card and it didn't work for hin. On my phone right now so doing a search would be a pain. Search for sdhc in the Artemis mobile 6 forum and you should find it though.

Thank you for your answer
The thread you were talking about is this one. In one of the last posts a person says that he/she has tested a 4 GB Sandisk MicroSD in the Artemis with negative results, but doesn't specify if it's a High Capacity MicroSD (MicroSDHC) and in which OS the test was done
I would like to know more opinions and to see votes from people who has tested also a 4 GB MicroSD (HC or non-HC), I'm sure that there are more users who has experience with this kind of memory cards and we all would have a more clear idea if they tell us the detailed results
Regards
Well if you or someone can point out a couple 4 GB cards that are available in the U.S. online I will buy up to 3 to test just to try and bring some closure to the question.
The only 4GB micro SD card I could find was out of stock (J&R music). Based on a little searching it seems to perpetually be out of stock. I added myself to get an alert should it come in however.
I have done a bit of research and I am pretty sure the P3300 will not work with a 4GB card, but I am willing to try.
It is not the traces or the pinout on the card as many have surmised that is the problem though. The SDHC uses FAT32 whereas SD uses FAT16. So unless the system has the capability of reading FAT32 the question of circuitry is moot. Everything I have read points to 2GB being the limit for non SDHC and that the P3300 does not support it.
Another common misconception seems to be that there are non SDHC 4GB micro sd cards. I see no evidence that this is the case. Furthering the improbability is the fact that the Fat16 has an upper limit of a 2GB partition. (There is an exception to this where the FAT16 uses 64K clusters, but this is unlikely to be done or work in ANYTHING without custom drivers. I never even heard of this till I did this research.)
None the less I would be happy to be proven wrong.
I've read a thread somewhere in this forum where a senior member (or was it a mod?) had drivers to make the artemis sdhc capable which usually is not possible if the hardware is not built for that. Search for it and maybe you'll find it.
I have read most of those threads and none are conclusive.
You also can not do anything with drivers if the hardware is not already compatible. There is not any question that the p3300 does not officially support microsdhc.
The debate rages and a thread like this keeps coming up.
From what I've read so far, the only thing required is a SDHC driver. There should not be problem on the hardware side.
Some say the WM6 ROMs have SDHC driver. My Wizard has WM6 and the driver on it looks different, but I don't have a SDHC miniSD to verify. Ultimately, to prove it works on Artemis, I need a 4Gb SDHC microSD so I can try the stock drivers and may be copy the drivers from my Wizard.
SanDisk 4GB microSD-HC DID NOT WORK on MDA compact III
Hello,
I`ve an MDA compact III which was delivered with WM5 OS. I`ve an 2GB microSD - Card from Sandisk, working perfectly. A little bit small that thing for my big fingers... =
Now I was searching for higher capacitys of microSD - Cards and found an SanDisk microSD-HC with a capacity on 4 GB. Bought for app. 60€ and testet on my device: NOTHING. No work. The WM5 OS did`t recognise the Crad. The card is`t shown inside the System. It seems like NO card inside the device. The card is OK. There was a little USB reader in the package, where I can access to the card.
OK, maybe it is the WM5 OS and I decided to upgrade to WM6. (German O² OS using the UPL method...) The upgrade was done in 10 Minutes, but the card works NOT! The same reaction like on WM5.
Now I`m wayting for an patched OS with (maybe) an SD-HC driver inside. Let`s pray...
Best regards, Sven
The Artemis is not able to read/write microSDHC Cards. The Interface of the Artemis permits only FAT16, microSDHC works only with FAT32. Artemis cannot recognise it. Normal microSD with 4 GB if should be at least recognised.
JanetPanic: Before opening this thread I had done many searches to get information about SDHC, and I know that SDHC compatibility is a hardware problem rather than a software/drivers problem. However, I hoped that our HTC Artemis had a SDHC compatible slot, looking at HTC Trinity's example... By the way, before the Artemis I had a Dell X51v with a 4 GB SD (non-HC) that worked like a charm; I expect that in a -near- future there'll be 4 GB MicroSD cards
lSSBl: Very interesting your MicroSDHC "review", althought you have ruined most of my hopes. Let's pray that future WM6 official ROMs will give the Artemis the ability to read MicroSDHC cards
AlfredENeumann: I tell you the same as JanetPanic, the HTC doesn't have officially a HC compatible slot and however it supports that kind of memory cards. Let's pray...
Regards
@AlfredENeumann
You're wrong. The Artemis accepts FAT32 as well as FAT16 SD cards, no matter if WM5 or WM6. But that has nothing to do with SDHC, what till now doesn't work with the generic WM6 drivers.
perhaps a solution: http://msmobiles.com/news.php/6308.html
http://www.sandisk.com/Assets/File/pdf/retail/SDHC1.pdf
That means, that the SDHC card is NOT backward compatible - you can't format it with FAT16, but you can format any 'normal' (micro) sd- card with FAT32, and it still works at the artemis. Tested by me, and a lot of other guys.
Has anybody Tried the SDHC driver from the HTC Trinity yet?

4 gb micro dilemma
Hey guys... see if you can help me out.
Installed the 4gb micro sd on my HTC Artemis and the SDHC driver from the previous post... windows mobile 5 doesn't recognize the card.
Not sure what to try, open to any suggestions.
c.
crap
Actually, after I've tried the 4gb Micro and installed the Trinity driver.. NONE of my storage cards are recognizable now. So I removed the driver.. and STILL none of my storage cards are recognized. BUSTED?!? Not sure how to fix this?

SanDisk have just announced an 8GB micro SDHC.... time we got these SDHC cards working in our devices! Anyone have any input on how we can find out if this is possible?
Sandisk 4gb SDHC no go
Hi all, just to let you know I tried all the WM6 rom's on these forums (thanks to all), reformated my sandisk 4gb microsd card fat 16/32 but no go..
(my 2gb sandisk card works fine with fat16/32), even tried trinity driver no go.
Hopefully the new WM6 rom from HTC this week will support it.
Hi,
I started to use this 2GB Sandisk microSD from yesterday and I noticed that it takes A LOT longer time for my hermes to wake up when the microSD is inserted. Are there anyone else who are having this problem? I am using DOPOD official WM6 rom. It certainly takes quicker to wake up if i take the microSD out and it's annoying to think that it will even give me some more delays for phone rings..
Will this be improved if I use other microSD cards with faster speed? or Are there any fixes that you geniuses made?
Please help!
Cheers

You may just as well find out that some mSD/drivers may count with the official generators of SOD. If you bump into this you may want to search this forum for further info.
I have a 2GB sandisk card, and I have experienced some delays on resume from standby. They seem to vary, but mainly under a second, max 2 seconds. The phone still rings ok, and I don't experience "screen of death" with most WM6 ROMs, as long as I keep my today screen pretty simple.
My N7100 recently had many issues like loosing WiFi and Bluetooth devices (not just connections but devices!) with different ROM/kernels, even full stock no-root included.
After few hours to few days WiFi just disappeared and when I tried to turn it back on the settings slider just returned back to off. Same correct for BT.
Reboot and ROM flashing usually didn't help.
I had to turn the phone off for few hours, turn back on and both WiFi and BT reappeared. In a couple of days the same problem returned and so on.
I removed the Kingston 64/10 card used from the very first day and everything OK now for about a week.
I have to admit the Kingston microSD 64Gb class 10 (genuine, full 64Gb, verified) has issues with N7100.
Could you recommend me another 64/10 or better card know to be nice with N7100?
Thanks.
Don't go for sandisk... NEVER
I suggest a samsung one. .. worth the price
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Hm,I use a 16 GB Kingston...No issues at all.But I think the phone itself is defective in your case..Better call Sammy
I guess this is a sdxc and its possible that the note 2 doesn't Support sdxc look in the Manual or Data sheet for supported sd cards ...

I tried my old Samsung 32/10 and it works flawlessly. So it's not a Note 2 problem or at least not a kind of unfixable problem.
Regarding SDXC and SDHC I'm not sure. Is it so complicated difference?
Kingston 64/10 actually works more or less just having issues. Seems to me there is kind of short circuit for millisecond happen during SD access and it somehow locks radio modules BT & WiFi. 3G and GPS are fine. FM I didn't check...
I'm going for Samsung 64/10 or 64/super1 in a couple of months, not before...
I'm afraid that my Hydrogen is killing SIM cards of the german provider "Netzclub" (O2). Two cards died already after about two months of use. It started with frequent loss of signal, then permanantly no signal and in the end the SIM was not even detected anymore.
On the phone I am running latest Lineage OS.
It sounds pretty much like the problems with Oneplus devices and Fairphone2 killing SIM cards due to a bug with processing the MEC-request (mobile equioment change) that leads to a loop of continous read/write actions to the card.
Anybody having similar issues?
i have the same problem with my kenzo/lineage bzw.
kenzo/mokee.
my sim card is from t-mobile.
i think it's a problem with lineage.

Get me radio log when phone talks to one of those affected sim cards and I'll see what can be done to fix it.... If it is a firmware problem then it's up to Xiaomi. And probably is b/c affected devices runs all kinds of different android flavors. It is not Lineage problem, might be AOSP problem but I doubt it...

Check your PM
I have had my max for a couple of months with no issues running both sim slots is this just affecting rooted users?
No issues with mine, been using this phone for more than six months and the SIM card is fine. It's a micro-SIM, not a nano unit.
On the other hand, my Sandisk 128 GB card failed completely after a few days of slow writes. I don't know if it's a bad batch or if the phone got too hot, too often - I've seen battery temps around 45 C and CPU temps near 60 C when charging at 2400 mA on a QC2 charger.

I also had a 128GB Sandisk fail in less than a year, I'm pretty sure the 128's were just a bad card. I'm on a 200GB Sandisk currently without issue. Think I'll stick to Samsung memory in future!

Agreed, probably a bad batch. I had it fail while traveling, luckily I could still read the card and most of my files were fine. Thank goodness for cloud backups...
I got a 64 GB Samsung Evo Plus card as a replacement , apparently they got good reviews for being fast and cheap. I also have a portable hard disk that works with the phone when connected to a powered USB hub. You can't trust cheap flash drives to be reliable.
