Anyone has a lower capacity microSD card working with the Universal through a SD-to-microSD adapter?
Dose it realy work?
I have Scan Disck Ultra II 4Gb.
AQnd unbranded 2Gb micro sd to Sd, works fine.
RE
So, there's a possibility that the 8GB microSD card might work provided that the Universal recognizes it
I'm sure it won't work ...
Hi folks, you should read before posting:
"With a read speed of 16Mbps and a write speed of 6Mbps, Samsung's 8GB microSD card well exceeds the Speed Class 4 SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity)"
As far as the Uni does not support SDHC, this one will not work (neither other SD-Cards with SDHC will, no matter of size or capacity).
Best regards,

Yep ... I think the maximum size allowed for the Universal is 4Go !!
I have been using Pocket Mechanic to check the read/write speed of my Transcend Transflash (MicroSD) card.
I am getting 1.4MB/s Read speed, but the write speed is showing as 0.02MB/s.
That seems very slow, what is anyone else getting?

is the memory card formatted for fat 32 ?
It made no difference the read/write speeds were the same FAT16, FAT32, various block sizes etc. about 10 different combinations.
I got a Samsung 32 GB Class 10 microsd card today and formatted the it into NTFS in Windows 7, and copied a big file, the speed met the nominal value about 13 MB/s. But I found out later that android does not recognize NTFS format. Therefore I reformatted the card into FAT32 in Galaxy S2. But when I copied the same file into the card under Windows 7, the writing speed decreases to about 5 MB/s. Later I used the app called "SD Card Speed Tester" to test the speed, it told me the card is a Class 6 card!!!
Is there anyone having the same problem? The only solution I can come up with is to format the sd card into ext2 and try again. Can anyone tell me how to do it with the phone, is there an app for that?
Thank you in advance!
I'm sorry to be the one telling you this but you might gotten a fake one...Where did you buy your sd card?
I bought it from a German company. Nevertheless, I just test the card (still with FAT32) with the original SD adapter under Windows 7, the writing speed is about 10MB/s, which is more close to the nominal value. So I think it is the problem between GS2 and the card.
Any idea to format the card with ex2 by GS2?

You should see better performance with NTFS, that is normal. Still, your speeds are unusually low.

Finally, I test the card with adapter under Windows 7 on my laptop using h2testw for NTFS and FAT32 format, both of them have the same performance, about 10 MB/s for writing. And I also inserted the card with FAT32 format in milestone, the writing speed is still about 5 MB/s, I did not test with NTFS format.
The card costs me 30 euro, and it functions normally with adapter, so I don't bother to return it. However, I am warning you guys, do not buy SAMSUNG 32 GB Class10 sd card, it can only achieve around 5 MB/s with FAT32 format.
Derp.
If you can fill the card it's not a fake, the only problem here is your expectations from the i9100's sd card reader.
Well, this may be a silly question, but is there any way of making a bigger sd card work on the GT-N7100? I believe that the max capacity is 64 gb but can you get any bigger sd card work on this device. I am also a bit curious if there's any way of doing this when you are rooted or if the device is just not compatible with any higher than 64 gb sd cards. Would be great to get some answers

Have you ever seen a micro-SD greater than 64gb?!

There is a hardware hack for N2 that allows to add another sd card,on top of the 64 Gb sd card. Basically another card with its adapter is stuck on the back of the cover(inside) and is coonected by a copper wire to the phone. As far as i can remember , nfc has to be "taken off". Well im wont go into the technicalities.
And in CES 2013 there is a chance of seeing a 128 Gb sd card. So you gotta wait a bit to find out
Just about to pull the trigger on a Sandisk 400GB Micro SD card from Amazon, and just wondered before i buy, if anyone knows the maximum memory card size the 5T will Take?
Don't want to buy it if it's not compatible.
Thanks

I think you should tread the 5T specs first.
The 5T does not have expandable storage.
That's a more helpful answer than the first one, thanks.
damn, why it was so difficult for onplus to make 3rd slot for microsd, always something missing !!
since my first android phone, they always did that !!
Because they want to lost the money from you, just because you buy a memory card, instead of buying a phone with bigger storage from they. Memory card is slower than the phone storage. Just two examples, why they make this decision. The 3rd... the need extra space, for the memory card tray...I know, yes, you say that there is also space on the tray, if you decide to use just one sim... But you need a READER PART TOO... that's extra space... It's better to get a memory card slot for it, but a smaller battery?? I don't think so.

Hey Ben,
This is a little old question but I've just started using the OnePlus 5T a couple of months ago. You can use larger memory sticks and disk drives. But you'll need to convert to FAT32 format first. I just did this with a SanDisk 64gb stick and works great. I think my 128gb 5T is large enough but great to have extra space for movies on flights. If you haven't already sorted this out, I'll be happy to provide you with more information.
its actually because the SD cards memory runs way slower than the phones built in storage memory and would bottleneck your phone. and why on gods green earth would you even need more than 128GB? one solution would be to buy a USB type c memory stick, on that well known auction site they sell at 64gb= £10 or 128gb - £15 as previously mentioned format them to fat32 to make them compatible. most come with type c connector on one end and normal usb the other
