[Q] 64GB micro sdxc compatability - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know for sure if this phone is compatible with 64gb microsdxc cards. I need more storage and there are reports of these cards working with a lot of android handsets. I'd love to use my phone with a 64 gig card but if not I might have a reason to upgrade to a S2.

nope, max it can take is 32

no chance man

@bortak: is there any proof or is it just according to the official htc specs of the desire?
my opinion is: we can't tell unless somebody bought a 64gb microsdxc and put it physically in a htc desire to see what happens. until then i am not willing to loose my hope ;-)

well theres no proof but for sure you can try it but who want to buy a 64gb card if it probably wont work with the device? and why should htc give wrong specs to us(the customers)?
In my opinion are 32gb more then enough, if someone want to try it with the 64gb card, just try it!

Far as I know NO known devices even support SDXC so.. there you go

These 64GB sdxc still aren't widespread are not compatible with sdhc devices.
The HTC Desire does not accept SDXC cards.

@bortak and crimnous: just check this link http://www.androidnz.net/2011/09/sandisk-64gb-micro-sdxc-cards-confirmed.html
@loler90: for instance in germany you can place an order at every (german) internetshop and you always have the right to open and test the goods and return it within 14days or a month (i do not remember exactly) without any reason. your money is refunded completely if the value of the product is above 40 euros otherwise you pay the shipping costs. so i could imagine someone give it a try without the risk of loosing 160 euros which is the current price of a 64gb microsdxc on the german market.
greetings
peter

@peter_altherr iknow it, i am german, but it sucks if you have to go to the shop again to give it back
anyways the package of the sd card sucks

Fact: Desire supports only SDHC cards. End of story.

terepin, have you already tried it (reformat a microsdxc to fat32 and put it into a desire), so you can say fact?

I would be wary of using a SDXC card long term even if it works at first. My Lexar 32GB SDHC Class 10 worked fine for a couple of weeks in my HD2 utilising a 1GB EXT3 for apps, but then corruptions crept in on the EXT3 partition. Even after a reformat/reset of the phone, a couple of weeks later the same thing happened.
I spoke to HTC who reckoned that class 4 is supported on HTC phones but no higher. Something to do with access times being slow as the pay off for high transfer speeds, thus corruption occurred since the HD2 was not handling the slow access times appropriately.
So, an SDXC may appear to work but you better make sure you have a good backup regime in place that doesn't rely on the SDXC at least until it has proved itself over some considerable time.
Meanwhile my class 10 SDHC is now working perfectly happily in my Xoom tab.

this explanation sounds really strange to me, sorry.

Maybe it sounds clearer if I put it like this:
Either Lexar's implementation of the Class 10 standard, or the Class 10 standard itself is not supported by the HTC HD2, according to HTC Customer Support. A year ago they told me this - it may have changed for newer models but that was their stance back then. The HD2 & Desire are likely to share some common hardware regarding SD cards cos they were release quite close together.
In my practical experience, the Lexar Class 10 32GB microSDHC, using a 1GB EXT3 partition with the rest in FAT32, apparently worked fine for a couple of weeks. Then the HD2 failed needing a reinstallation of the ROM/EXT.
After this reinstallation, it happened again after a couple of weeks.
Since using a Sandisk 16GB Class 2 with 1GB EXT3 & the rest in FAT32, & the same ROM, the problem did not repeat.
I am awaiting delivery of my Sandisk 32GB Class 4 which will be similarly configured & I am confident it will be fine too.
What makes me wary of the idea of using a SDXC in an "unsupported" device is that incompatability may not show immediately - it may take some time in use to corrupt something vital to the operation of the device (eg. apps on an EXT) or your data.
Just saying - take care!

incompatibilities between certain sdcards and controllers in cardreaders are nothing new they exist since those devices are existing. I would not blame it to the class10 standard which in reality is no standard itself it is a part of the sdhc standard. classXX defines just a speed class guaranteeing you certain permanent read/write data rates.
i fully agree with the rest of your comment. operating something out of its specs requires special attention.

I know I'm dragging up an old thread but thought you may like to know. I've been running an sdxc card in my Desire for a few months now and all is well. The card is nearly full and working fine with an EXT4 partition for apps. I've found some implementations of apps2sd+ can be a bit temperamental but the version in Mildwild Oxygen is working fine
The only thing I had to do was reformat the card to fat32. I've no longer needed to carry an iPod and happy that I can transfer the card to a new phone when I move on

It was a Sandisk from Amazon. I would guess Sandisk have probably changed the card since mind as I'd got it when they were first released. I did find it had problems when formatted in exfat on my S3 but it worked fine formatting back to fat32. Sandisk apparently fixed this in later versions.

First SDXC card unveiled. Anybody working on a driver?

So, it looks like there's already a SDXC card. It's 32GB and read/write speed can hit 50MB/s. Not too shabby. Anyway, I was just wondering if anybody knows about any work being done on a driver for this; either by HTC or a third party.

I'm sure there is work being done, but not for any devices currently in existence. SDXC is not compatible with SD/SDHC devices.
Current expectations are for SDXC devices to begin hitting the market around the first of the year, according to CNET.
Which, of course, is a vast conspiracy aimed directly at me, since I was planning to get a Touch Pro 2 just about that time of year, and within 6 months HTC will come out with an SDXC-capable device.
doies this mean the 32 gb sdhc has been cancelled
i heard the 32 gb sd would be a hc not a xc

FYI, 32GB SDHC cards are already in existance, however, I am guessing that you mean 32GB microSDHC cards. In that case...
If you recall, 4GB preSDHC cards never got made by major manufacturers when the SDHC spec came out (even though 4GB was the theoretical preSDHC max). However, small manufacturers did make the 4GB cards and they were easily obtainable on eBay. I infact have a 4GB miniSD from back them.
I would guess that even if the major manufacturers do the same, that is skip over 32GBmicroSDHC cards, the gap will be filled by smaller manufactuers looking to make a buck.
no ui was just wondering
id heard report on a 32 and 128 gb micro sdhc cards
i was wondering if the sdxc was taking over this

32GB has always been proclaimed as the theoretical limit to SDHC, as I understand it - in the sense that it might be possible to create that much storage on one, but no had done it yet, so it's not proven. However, more than 32GB is not possible with the SDHC standard, so if you heard reports of 128, it was likely referring to SDXC.
I image that once SDXC hits the market, SDHC probably won't have much more than 4 or 5 years of practical life left in it as device makers migrate exclusively to the more advanced technology - rather like you don't see many floppy drives anymore.

Best microSDHC card

Hello!
I want to buy new microSDHC card to my phone and I'm wondering which one is the best.
There are three priorities for me:
- SDHC
- 4GB
- minimum class 6
I found TRANSCEND microSDHC 4GB Class 6 and SILICON POWER 4GB microSDHC CLASS 6. Which one is better? Or maybe you advice something else?
THere is a lot of disscussion about this in this forum. Please search
Sometimes it's hard to find sth when does not speak the native english. Can you please give me the link to this discussion or just post the answer?

Thanks! I've already studied thread nr 1 and 3 and nothing special there. Number 2 is 16GB and 32GB - I need just 4GB and not for WM but for Linux (ext4 and maybe one fat32 partition on it).
well if it's a pda device then it's interface cant keep up with even the normal card speeds
so high speed cards only really matter when you have it connected to a card reader connected to a computer

So it's better to buy class 4 but 8GB that 4GB class 6?
i have not seen any difference personally between 4 & 6. so go for highest capacity.
i have used quite a few brands and all my cards now are sandisk. None of them have given me a problem.
most important thimg regarding performance is to make sure that its genunine. more than 85% of cards sold these days are duplicate.

I don't know jack about linux or 'rooting' onto an sd card, but if I were going to do it, I would make sure that I got the highest quality card available. I've corrupted my 16 G card too many times (mostly my fault, lol) to trust it for running linux off of it. Get something hardy that won't become corrupted, like if the device freezes and you need to reset it. My guess is that you're better off with a smaller card (like the 4 GB one). I'd stay away from a big one if you don't need it.
Basically, it's a huge PITA when your card becomes hopelessly corrupted and you need to back it up and re-format it. I imagine it's a nightmare when your operating system is running off of said card when it becomes corrupted.

That's right!
"most important thimg regarding performance is to make sure that its genunine. more than 85% of cards sold these days are duplicate."
what do you mean? TRANSCEND and SILICON POWER are genuine?
on my purpose,there ARE differences between class 4 and class 6 ,but there are to small differences in speed to pay the double price...I just using class2 Devices (on 3 PDA Phones,2 NDS and an PSP),i never felt there are to slow,yeah on PSP you really fell the difference between an MemoryStick Pro MkII and an Class2 Toshiba MicroSDHC,but for me personally it does not matter -the most of People buy Great Capacity Drives for Media Files right ? ....and Media Files like Movies,Mp3´s etc. running well on Class2 Cards!
Excuse me to say that...but SanDisk Sucks!
a lot of the Sandisk card have Chips from China
(i Don´t know on Class 4 or 6 Cards,but Class2 Card from Sandisk always have Chinese Chips....and there bullsh...)
Japanese Chips (like Cards from Kingston and Toshiba) are a lot better on speed and are a lot more reliable than Chinese Chips
I made my Experiences ,never by SanDisk....
just every Media Market have SanDisk- but that doesn´t mean there are really good..
I have Cards from Siemens,SanDisk,Kingston,Nokia,Toshiba and Motorola (Nokia,Siemens and Motorola are OEM- so i don´t know who produced them)) I have over 20! Cards between 64mb and 16gb---yeah and San Disk are the worst ..dood!
and there IS a Difference between Class4 and 6 Cards,but i think personally there are to less to pay the double Price for it
I have 3 PDA ,2 NDS and an PSP,all of them has Class 2 Cards and i never felt that there are to slow...most of the Devices on the market are to slow to feel the REAL Power of an Class6 Card!

[Q] Anyone here use a Class 10 SD card for Android?

I'm looking to upgrade the crummy 1GB SD card in my wife's TP2 to something faster. I was wondering if buying a class 10 card was worth it or if I should just stick with a class 6 or lower. Does the SD slot in the TP2 even support a class 10 card? Would a class 10 card be noticeably faster than a class6?
Not for this project. IIRC Nate said class 4 seems to be the sweet spot, the higher the class the worse it would be running XDandroid, but even some class 4's work better than others. Walmart has 16G class 4 sandisks for around $20, not too bad if you ask me

C10 cards are supported, but some have had issues. I would not recommend a C10 card for Android use. I doubt the phone itself will be any faster...

Cool. Thanks. So get a class 4 then? Is it worth it to get a 16 over a 8GB? My wife doesn't put much on her phone really and she streams all of her music.
Yeah I've got a Patriot 16Gig Class10 SD card that I picked up on sale months ago. I have been running XDAndroid on it since then and haven't noticed any benefit over my old 4gig class 2 card.
Not sure if it's related to running andriod but at first I was having issues with the card corrupting and losing all data on it, having to format it to be usable again. Formatting a few times with the HP tool seems to be helping.
I had a similar issue with my last phone (HTC Hermes) which would only work with good quality (Sandisk) SD cars, and failed with cheap chinese flash memory. The issue was that the phone wasn't able to remount the card properly in winmo when coming out of sleep, and the filesystem would become corrupt pretty quickly with folders disappearing and files having wacky filenames. Sounded like it was more of a hardware issue than anything.

Yea I use a class 4 card. Some have reported oddness with class 6, so it seems like the type of card matters as well... Because others with C6 cards say they work just fine. I've even had some people say C10 cards are fine, but most seem to have issues with C10 cards. Don't get some cheap knockoff, get a name brand.
As for size, that's entirely up to you. You can have up to a 32gb card. 512mb minimum .

Just don't get a C10 card... I think that's what people should take away from this.
Some have said C10 cards are fine, but most say they are not. A few have had issues with C6 cards, but most say those are OK. I've never heard of people complaining about C4 or below cards - hence the reason I recommend anything C4 or less.
c10 sd android
My company name is WinDroidz and all I do is mod android and windows devices... and I have always seen huge performance gains with c10 cards, c2 sucks major, its just the transfer speed the card can move data at and clearly more speed no matter how u look at it with an SD card. Is crucial... I always used patriot c10, or topram and pqi c6 cards for android SD on windows devices and have only seen a posative result.. this is based on my personal experience of Modding more Devices then I can remember.... not from what I read somewhere or was told by someone... SD card data transfer is the slowest method of data transfer of all other common used methods... there are graphs if u Google it that show sdhc c2 cards lined up against other transfer methods like USB, ide, sata etc..... to put in perspective how ridiculously slow SD cards really are, once u see that u will understand why your phones drags ass so much when trying to pull up gallery after cache has been wiped if you have a ton of pics etc.... so if u are having problems with a higher class SD its probly not the SD and is something else you are doing, or maybe the brand as I can only vouch for the ones I've used... (wouldn't care personally about brand as pretty much everything is same manufacturer with restamped brand and packaging.. Kingston is Japan... currently using a c4 Kingston 32gb in my desire HD (wish it was a c10 but kinda pricey for that size and brand) I recommend c10 8gb for $30 on Amazon if u are using some kind of android SD rom.. or any device if u want better transfer speeds and it is very noticeable... no matter what speed u get though it will never run like nand android.. like HD2. So lets just hope the nand development for other devices continues like clk or magldr did for hd2 cause the hd2 with clk and full rom manager support is amazing
16GB class 10
Using 16GB class 10 and have had no problems related to the card, with FRX07.
I personally cannot think of any logical reason why a class 10 card of good quality should ever be a problem.
I just installed and ran Angry Birds Rio. It is slow, but works. Kind of fun to play in slow-mo!
i use 8gb c6 and haven't had any problem so far.
My 16GB RiDATA Class 6 Micro SD has been great, no problems.

Captivate Glide is compatible with microSD XC 64GB [Edit]

I just received my brand new SanDisk microSD XC 64Gb.
Took some time to copy all data from my previous 32Gb microSD.
I ejected the 32Gb and replaced it by the 64Gb ... Glide wasn't able to detect the card ... at all !
On windows, file system info is : extFAT (not FAT32).
I read somewhere that most of the latest phones are compatible with this new 64Gb card.
Does this mean that current Glide ROM doesn't have the extFAT drivers embeded ?
I'll try later this 64Gb memory card on a HTC doubleshot (MT4GS).
So, more to come !
Edit : it works .... microSD 64GB needs to be formated with the device (Glide) !
You probably already know this but, the manual states that it supports up to 32GB Micro SDHC only.

Yes, I do know this.
But it has been reported that latest HTC and Samsung devices (Galaxy S II) can read/write this type of microSD card, even if user manual states that device supports only 32GB SDHC.
So I was wondering... why not our device...
I remember seeing that if you format the card on the phone first it should work and recognize all 60ish GBs. This was on a SGS2 though.

Do you actually get the 30MB/Sec transfer speed the Micro XD card supports on the Glide? Just wondering as it normally does not support that card so are you reaping the full benefits in size and speed?

Size: My previous 32GB was full. I copied all that stuff on the new 64GB and added a few more (large) files. So it does the trick, for now.
Speed : I used SD Tools and it gave these results:
Writing speed : 7.1 MB/s
Reading speed: 18.9 MB/s (with a peak at more than 23MB/s)
This is no 30MB/s but it works great.
Thank you for confirming this, I'm liking this phone even more now!
So it's not slower than a officially supported MicroSD card? have you noticed any read/write lags, delays or any other issues?
No, no lags at all (for now).
I can listen to music (stored quite a lot on it), watch movies with a decent bitrate.
It is not the fastest card I've ever seen, but it does its job and brings large storage capacity !
* Up to 30 MB/sec read speed. Write speed lower. Based on SanDisk internal testing; performance may be lower depending on host device. 1 megabyte (MB) = 1 million bytes.

My 8GB Sandisk only managed 3.9MB/s Write and 8.3 MB/s read using sd tools so I think these results are great and definitely show a bright future for this phone.
I ordered it from Amazon, it's own its way!

Bought a 64gb Sandisk Sdxc from the online shop you have linked: it never worked, with any mobile up to a Galaxy S3, not just my Captivate Glide, nor my friends smartphones.
Also, using the sdxc with the provided adaptor didn't work either, with many different computers. The SDXC is never recognized by anything.
Every time I have inserted the card on a device, it started overheating.
I have asked mobymemory to either replace the item or refund my money, they never replied.
To me these makes them a bit shady as sellers, not likely to be legit, if not total scammers.
Actually this 64.GB works really great.
Got it working in the captivated glide, and now it works as well in my S3 !
Fyi: I also used it with a S2 (no format required after initial format with the Glide).
No overheating in any of these devices.
The only thing you have yo keep in mind is format the sdxc with the Glide (at least once). Then phone will be able to use it. Using the adapter will allow you to use it with Windows platforms...
Don't try to format it with windows... Glide won't recognize it at all.
About mobymemory, I bought from these guys a few memory cards (micro .sd, CF, ...) : never had any issues with these. Right now I think they are quite reliable.
Hope it helps !
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
The stuff you wrote is obvious. I am speaking about the fact that it's impossible to format; that the adaptor doesn't work, and that the SDXC overheats, doesn't matter where I put it. Their service is completely unresponsive.
Good for you that it worked (for you), but given I bought from them after solely reading your post, I am not accusing you but I want to warn others, so they can compare two very different experiences with the same online store (they look to be an ebay also) and product, and make their decision.
Anyone uses these type of memory cards on ICS? Any experiences?

your screenshot is showing your internal memory test. If you want to test external memory then you have to pick /sdcard/external_sd instead.
To respond to OP: I got mine from Amazon, cost me 54 EUR for SanDisk UHS class1, class 10, XC I 64gb. 32gb Sammy MicroSD HC class 10 is performing a bit better for me (just a slight bit) but lacks the space, and SanDisk one is performing as a beauty here.
ps: if in need of my screens for test on Sandisk, let me know.
Is it worth getting a 64gb card for sg2?
I ask as I've seen many reviews tgat say data can be wiped as it's not suitable.
I'm in the market for a card though can't decide if 64gb would be overkill, but at same time would negate deleting old files vids etc I may need later...
Sandisk seems the way to go, any thoughts?

Depends on your need for storage space. I had 12Gb of music on 32GB one and photos and vids just zeroed it, let alone apps/games on it. I have no problem with 64GB now. I guess, it's each to his own. And if it is going to be self_wiped, then it will be my loss there, but I don't see any problem at this time, nor my microsd performs bad or has glitches.
Having SanDisk only for a month now, I can say I'm pleased how it's performing in terms of speed and stability. I can't predict what comes next but I never had any microsd breaking on me, or any problems in the past (had from 2 t o64GB microsd from SanDisk, Samsung etc... over 4 years time span).
Hope this helps a bit.

if u redead hes post he says hes on the galaxy s2 its different then from the galaxy s3 where the internal is set as Sdcard and external is set at extsdcard, the Gs2 didnt have that issue so hes screen shot is corrent.

Thanks for this thread. Even i was confused with the same question. But i was informed Micro SDXC 64GB will not work with Non Sammy roms i.e CM and other AOSPs to be precise. Can someone confirm this please

Owner of SGS2 here (visible in my sig.): If you pick /sdcard on SGS2 it's measuring internal storage (16GB one), if you change it to /sdcard/external_sd, then it's testing external microsd card. Dunno what SGS3 does and what not, it's on ICS as a base...
Got an Sandisk Micro SDXC with 64 GB and its working in my HTC HD2 and my Galaxy S2, too. But I got it formatted with FAT32 don`t know if Ex-Fat is working. Price was 58 Euro in Germany 1/4 year ago. Im on German 4.0.4 Stock Rom without Root.

I just bought a sandisk 64gb sdxc. Can't wait for it to be delivered!!! $60 AUD on Shoppingsquare, which i think is good value
And now for my 2cents worth:
Is 64gb an overkill?
Yes, but that's what I said about my 16gb card 2 years ago, and now I have no space.
Besides, i envisage apps, music, videos to get bigger as it gets better in quality.
e.g. with 64gb i can afford to have lossless audio.
Also, I have now in my room, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, 8gb micro sd card.
I probably would have spent less money if I upgrade to a much higher capacity each time.
not to mention they are now just sitting there being wasted.
Usb adapters, lik SanDisk one, FTW / then you have a "switchable" USB key...
I don't have any wasted microSDs at all, but still has 2 x 4gb, 1 x 8 gb and 1 x 16gb micros's...
Gonna put in an order for one of these. Thanks for advice!
nice!

Hi,
Storage media of any type does not 'self-zero' itself. When it is full it stops you from writing data. Think about it: Would Sandisk still be in business if it did?
A likely reason your Sd card are self-zero'ing is because you bought a counterfeit card from a shop like Amazon or Ebay.
This is very common.
What happens? The fraudster buys cheaper 4 Gb SD Cards. He then modified the SD card firmware so that it reports to the operating system that the card is actually 32Gb. The O/S formats the card (typically a quick format by writing a few blocks at the start of the card) and you start coping the data across. Regretfully when you cross the 4 Gb limit of the card you end up writing no where. Seems that the data is simply zeroed or another error appears.
There are numerous of reports about this on Amazon.
Solution:
Don't buy SD cards from Ebay.
If you buy from Amazon then ensure that you buy from Amazon and not the Amazon MarketPlace.
Finally: If it is too cheap, then there may well be something amiss ;P
Also, I have now in my room, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, 8gb micro sd card.

Problem
i buy de sandisk 64gb and when i tranfer files from mi pc to the sd card i got slow tranfer speeds (around 5-6 mb/s). The sd is in fat32 that possibily affects the perfomance?, when i do sd speed test from the play store i got 13mb/s write and 30mb/s read.
Also i cant achive mounting correctly on ntfs with the app from the marquet ntfs mounter which is in xda
someone pass something like this?

64Gb SanDisk works fine on mine, though I'm not on Cmiui, I'm on Sensation 4.1 flavor now, it's ICS 4.04 based (was on GB 2.3.6 before), 32GB Samsung one works flawlesly on my kid's SGS2 and any other older microSd we have works. Other then that, all my old microSd's are workign OK with adapters and such
No waste for me
Got my 64gb and it worked fine with cmiui and now with resurrection remix ! Thanks for your help and reply.
