Anyone had any luck with these? I just got one from www.microsim-shop.com and when I put the adapter in to test fit it got stuck. Managed to get it out but I think I bent some of the sim card pins on the Play. Hopefully AT&T or Sony will replace it. Only had it for a week or so.

So my xperia play 4g has bent sim card pins. They arent missing...just bent. I was wondering if i could unbend them or if there is a way to replace it without replacing the entire mother board, or even if i do have to replace the entire motherboard....where can i get one? I bent them because of those stupid micro sim adapters...never again!
I had that happen the first time I got my play. I ended up getting it replaced. Did you happen it put the adapter in the phone with no sim card in it? I've been using an adapter now for a while with no issues since the first usage other than having to use a paperclip to remove the adapter cause it is slightly thicker than a normal sim card and sticks.
exactly..i was dumb enough to put the sim adapter in the slot without a sim card in it....when i tried to pull it out it came out...but i wasnt able to put my normal sim in. i can see it with a flashlight...its bent. i need to find a way to remedy this.
Goodluck man like I said I ended up getting a replacement phone.
SIM Issue
I have inserted working Sim Card (not AT&T) and when I restart my phone it still shows me "emergency mode" no Sim. I was trying to unlock my phone.
I have cut my old regular SIM card to Micro and use the same adapter which came with the Sony Ion LT28at. OR I don't have to use that adapter.
I am stuck now because I purchased this phone from ebay (no return).
Is it a Sim card try problem or other? ?
Please help..
I just upgraded from my evo and bought the Note2.I love the phone. However they took my sd card out of my evo and used it in note 2. I kinda annoyed by this being evo sd card is only 16gb which is plenty. But I feel after spending 300 bucks for a phone with an upgrade I should of received a new sd card. Any reasons why I did not?
Some companies provide them some don't its that simple. Besides that you can pick up a 16/32/64gb microsd sdhc/sdxc on amazon anywhere from $15-50.

Ever since phones started including 16+ gb of internal storage they haven't been including cards. I'd rather have more internal storage and buy my own card than get a cheap 8gb sd card and not get any more internal storage. The evo lte didn't include a micro sd either. You're paying $300 cuz of the wacom digitizer internal storage quad core exynos and big screen. I'd rather have that than feel all warm and fuzzy cuz they included an sd card I can buy for $12.

You didn't get a new sd csrd because the note 2 doesn't come with one. Its as simple as that. If you read the whats in the box tag on the packaging you would know this. All that's included is: device, battery cover, 3100mah battery, SPen, headphones and different sized earbuds, usb> micro usb cable and 5v 2a wall wart.
I like to break stuff!

Does this support USB 3.0 drives? I feel like it wouldn't receive enough power.
I am seriously tempted to give that FastTech unit a shot. Anyone else?

Just ordered one. Standard shipping was "Up to 30 days" - so I paid $1.02 for the 10-14 days. $7.01 total doesn't seem to bad for this. I'll try to find this thread when it gets here to let you know how it's working
Ordered a couple of these yesterday. Price is very reasonable. I hope they work. Will report back once tested.
I use this with a 64Gb PNY thumb drive i picked up on sale at mirco center. Not a fan of trying to keep track of micro sd cards.

Just ordered one myself. Look forward to playing around with this device.

Alright good deal, looking forward to hearing if these are worth buying. If so, all those complaining about the lack of SD slots on this phone and using it as a negative when making a choice of buying this or another phone now have no real complaint in this area.

Eh.. I see what you're saying, but it's still an extra 'device' you have to carry around. Someone needs to make a case that plugs in to the micro usb port and has a micro sd card slot on the back or side of it (with otg support obviously). Might be a thick case but it'd probably be worth it to a lot of people whod like extra storage available all the time. That said this will be the first time I've ever actually used otg on a device, so I cant speak for the effects on the battery which might be a reason to not always have something connected..
Still look forward to receiving this though.

That's what I've been mentioning in a few threads. It would be nice if there were two case options, a battery case with a microSD port and a regular case with a microSD port. With the battery cases out there, I'm surprised that one hasn't already been created, battery or no battery.

Valid point, but i'm sure this would at least bring comfort to some who were going to back away from the One due to the lack of internal slot. I can also see how this could be both an annoyance to some and yet still a win for others.
My card reader arrived today. The unit works as advertised. As soon as the device is plugged in the phone auto mounts whatever storage is plugged into the device. Going to Settings-->Storage--->USB Storage there is an option to Mount/Unmount. The reader has mounted everything I have tried so far, ranging from 4GB SD to 32GB MicroSD.
Nice little card reader, good find.

The item listed by the OP, http://www.fasttech.com/products/11...1-micro-usb-hi-speed-usb-card-reader-with-mic
Hi I recently purchased a Diztronic case but I'm finding it a bit annoying having to take the case off to get to the Micro SD tray I know I can use the USB C cable for file transfers but having compared speeds using a USB 3 card reader my overall transfer time reduced by 2.5 hours! So I would like to know if there's any good cases out there that has a cut out or flap for easy Micro SD access?
im just curious what are you transferring that takes over 2.5 hours?
When I do a full format and I throw my pictures and videos back onto my phone, over 6gb of data is moved with 2000+ files and it only takes about 10 minutes at most. I also have game emulators that together have over 10,000 files 7gb approximate size and that takes about 10 minutes also to move all those files.
Now the display on the pc will say 1 hour or something remaining but that's completely wrong if that's what your going off on your time (2.5 hours) and it'll be much, much shorter than that.
On my pc I use a A-C cable that USB-C 3.1 to USB 3.0 claims speeds up to 5gb/s on devices and my card is 128gb Samsung with 90mb write 95mb read.
I have not seen any cases that have access to the sd card unless you get a flip style one that's easy to take off or don't not attach to that area of the phone. I guess a cheap tpu case would work if you cut out the side.
