The Biggest SDCard?

Anyone Out There Know, What The Biggest SDCard Size Is?
I Currently Have A 8GB Micro-SDCARD.... Although I've Seen Bigger, I Was Wondering Which One Would Be Best For My
"SPRINT CDMA HERO"?
I Heard Bigger Than 8GB Won't Work!! I Don't See Why Not?
Does Anyone Know If It Works Or Not, Please Let Me Know.....
Thanx!!

I know that the mytouch 4g is able to support up to a 32gb microSD card (just ordered one from newegg.com), so perhaps checking with the manufacturer or the carrier to find out the maximum size microsd your card can support.

it's nothing to do with carrier but you can find the limit it supports in the manufacturers specs, however it is not always like that... as the limitation for HTC universal was 2 gb and with great devs here we were able to use card up to 16gb... so ask fellow XDAINS than the manufacturers... and since your device is pretty new model you should be able 32 gb....

Said there are 32gb sd card, but I got one 16 micro sd card.

Thanx Everyone For Your Help!!

Use an 32GB Class 2 SanDisk for my Android HD2. Can't argue (for Class 2): 6MB Write, 15 MB Read.

2TB is the biggest ive seen!

does E4GT support 32GB microSD?

Has any one try it?

Yes it does.

It supports up to 48GB

It support's 64GB micro sd card also from the looks of it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336961
Also I believe I had also seen a thread where someone use an adapter that combined 2 32micro sd card and it read that fine as 64GB. I believe the limitation for sd card support should be in how much Android itself can support.

Been running my 32gig for a couple months now. No troubles at all.

How good would a 32g sd work??

Ok so im thinking of buying a 32g sd for this phone cuz i really wanna put all my music on my phone and i have like 10g of music, wondering how well it would work, Ive bought an 8g and 16g sandisk at walmart and both have worked great, anybody using a 32g on their s2?? What kind? Thanks

I'm using one... the speed isn't great but for music and videos and also for nandroid backups and such, speed isn't so much of an issue. I got it on sale from Newegg (I think the brand was A-Data or something like that) for $40, but I got it a while ago.

I have a Samsung class 4 32gb and I only have like 3gbs left on it. I have used it for the last few months in my T989 with zero issues

Just bought an 32gb Class 10 Samsung micro SD from Amazon for $50. Swapped it into my phone this morning. No problems, speeds are class 10 or better (see pic using SD tools app).

i have both the 32 GB and currently using the 64 GB as my daily driver
they both runs great
the speed of the SD is not determined by size, but by its quality and Write Speed
there is a sticky with benchmarks you can see which cards performs better

I also use a 32gb sandisk class 4. It works fine. I put my spotify offline cache on it and rom and titanium app backups.

I don't know I'm using a 64gb

No problem with my 32GB Sandisk. About to jump onto the 64GB train

32gb all the way!
I bought 2 x 32GB cards (1for my GS2 and 1 for my gf's GS2) 28 each on ebay... Class 4 though, but works awesome. Great for titanium backups/music...going on vacation prob buy a 64GB for vid and pics.

I'm looking forward to the upcoming 128 GB microSD later this year
hope the prices are not insane, the price for the 64 GB i paid last year was pretty crazy already, if the 128 GB cost more than $300 i think i'll pass

I have a Samsung 32GB class 10 that I bought at frys for like a total of 35$ and havent filled it up. I put all my apps like mc3 asphalt 6 and all those big games on my sd card. And then I have like 16GB of music on my ext card and the rest I just use it for like nandroids, roms and theme back ups and and place for some video recording.

That's only a class 4. There were a couple deals with higher classes for around the same price. I would suggest going at least class 6. I think the max that our phone writes is 8? Not sure on that one.. I have a class 10 but i normally use a usb adapter to transfer files which is blazing fast compared to the data cable way.

[Q] Anyway to get a 64 GB microSD Card with a 16 GB S3?

T-Mobile says that it's only expandable to 64 GB with a microSD Card but of course everything always has it's tricks. So is there anyway to use a 64 GB microSD Card on a 16 GB Galaxy S3?

It's only expandable up to 64 GB. If I use a 64 GB microSD Card on a 16 GB phone then that would go up to 80 GB of storage. The guy at T-Mobile even told me that I could only use a 32 GB microSD card. Basically if there was a 48 GB microSD card then I could use it because it wouldn't go pass 64 GB. This is all pretty much info from the guy at T-Mobile.

I think he means that u can't use any SD card bigger than 64gb. It shouldnt interfere with internal storage.
You can use any sd card upto 64gb regardless of internal storage.

Could've sworn that he said I could only get up to 48 GB and wouldn't be able to get a 64 GB microSD Card. So I can get up to 80 GB of storage pretty much, right?

Yes. So you can use either a 32 or a 64. There is no such thing as a 48 lol. But yes no bigger than 64 gigs.

Having a 64gb card is awesome but to get the most out of it I would recommend using the apps 2 SD scripting and of course a really fast micro SD.

I plan on getting a SanDisk ultra microSD Card. Is that good enough?

I dont much care for sandisk, but last I checked they were the only brand that offered a 64gb micro sdxc.
That may have changed by now though.

dude, i had to read this like twice to get what you are trying to say.... and i'm still confused.
let's make this simple. people at t mobile don't know ***t about anything technical 95% of the time. so just, that whole conversation you had with that clown, crumble it up, burn it with fire and hatred.
your device will support an EXTRA 64 GB of storage (via a micro SD card)..... the problem, however, is 64 GB micro SD cards do not come in FAT32 format, which is what you need it formatted to for the device to recognize it as external storage. basically what will happen is you will plug the card into the device, turn it on, and your device will say it is not recognized or something along those lines.
Just to be clear, because i know this all sounds complicated, and it is.... the problem is the formatting structure of the two disks.... you MUST have FAT32 as your external because that is what the device is programmed to recognize. 64 GB cards come in a different file system called exFAT (which is what your internal storage is formatted to)... issues. obviously.
furthermore, the problem with re-formatting the 64 GB card (because this can be done as well to get around that issue) is that because of the file system structure of FAT32, it does not run optimally when the disk size is larger than 32 GB... i have partitioned disks larger than 100 GB to FAT32, but performance suffers.
basically, just get a 32 GB class 10 card and call it a day. unless your ROM/kernel supports exFAT in the external storage, you will not be using anything larger than 32 GB.
hope that made sense. it's late. read up on file systems and block sizes on FAT32 and exFAT disks and you'll understand entirely what I am talking about.

(Q) 32GB To Be Or Not!?

When is 32gb version being released!? I keep hearing different crap and tonight at t-Mobile buying some nfc's I asked and guy told me only online but no date yet. Can anybody verify this as store cashiers are brainless.

Not gonna happen, at least on Sprint. Not enough interest in the 32GB version. At least that's the word.

When you can get a 64gb card cheap for a device with an sd card reader...why bother forking out bigger bucks for 32 or 64gb internal?

Because you can't readily install apps on your external card anymore.

If no 32 or 64 internal coming which is upsetting knowing there are 64's in korea and uk I believe at least get going on the 128 micro sd already and a real hack to swap memory..
Newer apps as nd such will fill 16 (10gb) real quick so I dont see how they dont see the demand. It will only be $50 more to get 32gb phone.
