I asked the HTC support if the Wildfire supports class 10 cards and they said "Yes".
So I bought a 16 GB class 10 microSD card for my Wildfire and it works perfectly:

I am still working with 2 2gb cards, one for films. But soon I buy a 16gb one. aty least a class 6

I have an 8 gb kingston card, but I get the "SD card unmounted" message, and then even on PC, I have trouble reading it. After a format it`s ok for another week or so. I need to stop being cheap and buy a new one.

[Q] recommendations for new SD card.

been looking about for a new 16 or 32 gig card for the desire...
currently have a 8gig class 6.
might have found a good bargain but wanted to get some feedback incase there are better sources for a quality sd card at the right price.

Transcend works for me Get a high class level too, does make a different for APP2sd

It makes no difference in my experience. I had a Transcend 8gb class 6 which I replaced with a Sandisk 16gb class 2, and during operation (using Legacy A2SD), I didn't notice any difference due to the class whatsoever.
I bought another 16gb card (Sandisk Class 2 again) to use in my backup phone, this time using Froyo A2SD, and again it works flawlessly.

Upgrading SD Card on G2

Hello, I might need to upgrade the SD card on my G2.
I listen to a lot of songs and 8 GB just wont cut it for me. I have a rooted G2 running desire Z "virtuous" ROM.
I have a few questions:
1. Is this card compliant with G2: Transcend 16 GB microSDHC Class 6 ?
2. Any other better recommendations?
3. I have several important backups etc in my current SD card. What is the procedure to transfer all the data from the old SD card into the new one? (Do I just dump all the data from the old card as-is into the new card)

Most all SD/SDHC cards should be compatible up to 32GB. I have a 16gig class 6 card I used in my old phone and it works fine.
You can copy/paste/dump the files between cards, since SD storage doesn't exactly have a lot of hidden or system files. Or you can copy using a disk/partition tool like gparted in linux, disk utility in OSX, or various utilities for windows.

I had an issue with the bigger SD card in my first G2. It worked fine for a couple weeks then decided it wasn't there anymore.
When I got my replaced (got a new g2) I made sure the SD card was formatted and put it in on day 1.
My recommendation would be to Format the card, then put into the phone. Then drag the files you want on to it.
Another trick is if you want the phone to recognize certain files put them in a folder marked for their use. ie Music, Notifications, Ringtones and Alarms.

Thanks..
I will give this a shot..

I know I am digging up an old thread, but I was wondering what the outcome was for your upgrade. I am planning on putting a 32gb card in my G2, looking at the Kingston 32gb one on Amazon (Kingston 32 GB Class 4 SDHC Flash Memory Card SD4/32GB - can't post a link due to my noob status on forums). I just want to know if that card would work. It seems like it should.
When you format it, does that happen on the phone or do you format it on the PC?

Tried el-cheapo 32gb off ebay - no luck for me
I have tried 2 cheap 32gb off ebay (class 2) and both had issues. I decided to not waste any more time and waiting for a 16gb class 6 (which cost about the same as the class 2 32gb) to see how that goes.

Hmmm....I wonder if the Class 4 would fare any better Anyone out there tried a class 4?

My current SD card is a Class 4 and I've had no issues.
I used a 16 GB Kingston Class 4 that I got from Dell before, but it freaking stopped working out of nowhere, so I'm back to a Sandisk 8GB Class 4, which is working well.

i have a sandisk 16gb class 6. works like a charm.. never had any issues with it.

i am using a 32gb class 4 in my desire z and its working grate.
for the guy that got cheap 32gb sdcards are you sure you wasnt scammed and got a 2-8 GB card that said it was 32gb as these can over write files (corrupt them) with out your knowledge or just refuse to work ones past 2/4/8 GB

The cards actually said 32gb on them. One overheated the instant I used it and melted the sd card holder it came with. Sent it back waiting to get the refund, the other one worked for like a week then died. At first I started to think it was me until I found this thread.

What MicroSD Classes Work with the Desire...?

My question was concerning my 16gb Class 6 card (which actually appeared to be corrupt/broke'd anyway)
I asked about compatibly with the Desire...
htc said:
Thank you for contacting us.
In regards to SD Cards
I can help you with that.
The card that you are trying to use is not compatible with the phone as the class is too high speed for the device to be able to keep up with the speed. I have included a link to a webpage with the sd cards that are compatible with that device.
http://www.expansys.com/a.aspx?i=196001
If you look under the accessory tab then down the bottom is compatible memory.
I trust that this resolves your query, please do not hesitate to contact us again if required.

I'm sure I read some threads about class 10's working fine in the Desire?
The link seems to suggest only a class 2 or a class 4 will work...

I'm using a class 4 without problems so far.
On a dutch board I read a guy was using a class 6 on Starbust so it should be possible I think.

I've just bought a 16gb class 4 Sandisk and the speed tests show it as being quite a bit faster than my class 4 (non Sandisk) 8gb card!

I'm using class 4, working fine

I'm using a 8GB class 6 card with Custom ROM and A2SD with no problem. Been over 6 months now.

A lot of class 10 cards have issues, class 6 seems to be the most reliable thus far. Some people have had good experiences with A-DATA 16gb class 10.

So from user experience - a good Class 6/10 card should work just fine?

Yes, it should. Have no problems, with mine

For C6 yes.
For C10 Mostly yes... but usually class 10 is not really faster... so save the money.
Just my two cents.

I'm using Transcend 8GB class 6 without any problem. Try to format by gparted or similiar. Are you using it for any other purpose than storing photos, music or etc? For example for data2sd or apps2sd?

I just bought a transcend 16gb class 6, working perfectly so far with no problems.

I bought a 16gb class 6 to use with data2sd but struggled as the card was broken - so i've sent it back and just have the 8gb class 2 that i got with my phone now - and on stock rom again, so it is just photos and music and froyo app2sd at the moment

basically all branded cards will work fine, the thing you shoud be concerned more onthe capacity you are gonna use. It aint worth buying a 16GB sd when u cant fill even half of it with useful stuff

If speed is your thing then get a class 4 or 6 but I had SD mounted as read only with a class 4 8 gig Kingston SD, so I swooped with a buddy of mine for a class 2 SD from a Nokia n95, no problems since then.

[Q] SD-card issue

I bought a new Sandisk Micro SDHC 32GB UHS1 to increase a write/read speed to/from sd-card. But the problem is the sd-card steadily unmounted when I listen to the music or watch the movies. I think it‘s because of the class of the sd-card.
Can anyone confirm that this doesn‘t happen with the other class of the sd-card (with the same capacity of 32GB)?
I‘ll be very grateful for this.

I have a 32gb class 4 SanDisk MicroSD HC card, and I've actually never had any card issues at all, ie unmounting, corrupting, or anything weird. I've seen higher class 32gb cards, but I know how rare it is to have a microSD that doesn't ever give you any problems, so I'm sticking with my slower class 4 that has never let me down since I started using it about 5 months ago.

Well, I found the problem. Our devices are compatible only with microSD cards that have 2.0 interface like classes 2-10. UHS1 cards have a new 3.01 interface, therefore our devices don‘t support the new interface.

It's supposed to be backward compatible, but I guess things don't always work how they are supposed to.

I agree. With my Sandisk 32gb (Class 4), I formatted it as FAT32 with 64kb clusters from a card-reader on my PC.
I had unmounting issues as well, but I believe I incorrectly disabled something when I was debloating my Nitro...Once I started using CM9 though, the unmounting issues went away.
* If your Nitro is stock, then I would suggest trying to format your card from a PC and trying again.
* If you're rooted, stock rom and did some debloating yourself...Try getting your phone back to stock and see if you still have issues
* If you're rooted and would like to try a new ROM, definitely try CM9, that will take care of the bloat and potentially the unmounting issues.

Hmmmm I just bought a UHS-1 card, haven't opened it yet. Is this phone for sure unable to take advantage of it?

Try heading to http://www.sdcard.org and download the SD Card formatter. Format the card and see if it makes a difference (Needs to be done from a Laptop/PC). I know I had to do this with one of my external SD Cards and it started working again, but I did not have the same problem as you.
