Hi
I have a problem with my htc and i need some help if you can. I recently got a 4gb sd card for my phone and it doest work on it but the card works perfectly on the Samsung Galaxy Mini and the HTC TYTN II that i also have .
So my quastion is this. Is there anything else to do besides the format or the phone supports a special brand of a 4gb sd card??
P.S. please post me a link of a giude on how to upgrade the phone i ve been reading the wildfire section all day today and the only thing i found is the rom section.
Thanks in advance
Your phone could have a faulty card slot. If it's still under warranty, return it and get another one.
As for your other question, here's a link to a list of guides to help you through whatever you need: [INDEX].
Thanks for replying and trying to help.
I am really sorry but i forgot to mention that the 2 gb card that came with it or the 1 gb card from the Samsung one works perfectly on the HTC so the card slot is no issue i also took the phone to the company i purchased it and they said that i have to leave it there to check it but they will charge me because i installed the 4gb card my self
Thanks again for all the help you can provide
What's the brand and class of your 4GB Micro SD Card?
I had problems with a Kingston 8GB class 10 Micro SD Card, it was recognized by the phone but it randomly unmounted the card.
When I bought a Samsung 8GB class 6 Micro SD Card the problems were gone.
The brand of the card is kingston transcend 4gb.
That was my first estimation that the brand might not be compatible but i was hoping that it might be a soft upgrade or an application that could do the job and mount the card because mine it doesnt mount at all.
I will try and replace the card with another brand and see if it works
Thanks for all the help guys.

hi, new to the forum! i have just bought a sans disk 2GB card but im having trouble using it. i tried it in a friends card reader and managed to put a couple of mp3 albums on but then it makes the system freeze up until you take the card out, i have formated it and tried again but the same happens, similarly when i put it in my exec the phone works fine and can see the mp3s but when i try and load one it freezes. iv been looking for the answer to the problem and found some info on 2gb cards in hp's something about this fat/fat32 thing, is this the problem iv got and could someone enlighten me? also will i be able to format the card or whatever while it is in the exec and synced with pc as i do not have another card reader, although my friend has a pc one if i have to do it that way...
many thanks in advance.
Check your OS
This thing happens only when
you have initial ROM (update it wth latest ROM)
Card is not formatted on the same media (format it on your universal)
Card media is + technology which is not compatible with your mobile. (try to change it to SD instead of MMC)
I hope above may help you
sorry if im being dumb but how do i format the card on my universal?
simply format it in windows... I got a 2gb high speed card from samsung and I am using it without any problem without formating it even once
it could also be that the card is incompatible or your universal is faulty. try another card and that same card in some other device
the card iv got is a sandisk one, i read that it was compatible with the xda II so presumed it would be fine with the exec?
I think it's broken.
I had a 2GB from Transcend, and it had the same symptoms.
I returned it for RMA, because I read that someone else ad the 4GB version was working perfectely.
Before you do return it, buy another card reader. I had 1gb cards that corrupted seemingly, except a newer SD reader formatted them fine and they have been fine ever since.
Not all readers can handle the big sizes.

Hi
Today I have recieved a Samsung 8GB micro SD card (Class 4) from play.com. I bought this to replace the existing 4GB card i am currently using in HTC desire.
I need some help from the form as I wonder can I just switch of the phone and replace the existing card. What happens to the HTC desire when a new 8GB card is placed... will all my contact (sync with Gmail) still stay??
Anyone in the forum please help...
Thank you,
Swapping the memory card won't affect your contacts.
It may be wise to copy everything on your 4GB card to your new card before you swap it in. That way, you can keep your photos and other stuff that your applications may have saved onto the card.
Hello All,
I have recently Sandisk 32 card before this I am using Sandisk 16 gb card which was working great but now the issue I am facing is when I copied some folder in it the folder got copied but the inner folder in that folder was not there. I formatted the card 5 or 6 time and copied the data many time but the problem is same if I copied files/folder root on the card they work well but if there are folder inside folder card will not show him when I disconnect the phone with pc. Can anyone help me on this with any solution ? I think that I did a mistake to bought it
32GB micro sd from SanDsik are always a hassle sometime.
If you do decide to buy another, I will just wait. Taiwan released Class10 32GB MicroSD few month already, should hit USA any moment soon.
Been using it like wonder, smooth fast Stable!! Only that here Taiwan cost only around $40USD.
You might also have a SD card adapter + reader problem.
Its means I got ripped off by buying this no solution for it ?

Hi there.
I'm having problems with the SD card, is always unmounting with no apparent reason...
When I'm on the Album (or gallery) and I scroll trough the photos (I've got a few) the card is unmounted and I need to take it of, and put it back in...
While I'm copying files from the PC to the card (trough the phone) the same thing happens...
The card is a sandisk class 10 32Gb... it was used on my SGS2 and never had any problem...
Does it worth to buy another card, or someone else is having the same problems?
I think this is a problem with your sd card. I don't have any problem like that.
Can you please tell me what card do you have?
I have already formatted the card on the pc and on the phone, the result is the same...
Weird problem, I own a Goodram 32 GB Class 10 micro sd card and I haven't got any problems with it. You say that you have tried formatting the card. What format have you chosen? Have you tried reset to factory reset your device? Are you on some custom rom or the stock one? Do you have a possibility to check wheter the problem exists with other micro sd card? Perhaps you can borrow it from someone for a moment or you have another one somewhere. Worst case scenario the card port could be damaged.

I have a Kingston microSDHC 32GB, Class 4 :good:
Hi,
I'm sure that's an issue with your sd card. I've had the same issue with my old SGS3 and an SanDisk 64GB sd card. Then I bought a new Kingston 64GB sd card and it works.
I formated in FAT and in FAT32, same result in both.
Im in the stock ROM, totally unchanged.
I already get a new card and I'm testing it now, if it stills get me troubles I will try the factory reset.
Yeah... that is my fear... that the port is defective or something like that
Ok, updating from the previous post.
I've bought another SD Card and although that on the first time that I used it on the phone, it gave me the same behavior, after formatted it on the phone itself, so far so good.
I've tried the old SD Card with an adapter on the pc, and it works fine, no problem at all... so it must be something specific to the phone, I've read that some Samsung are a SD card eaters, so I believe that the problem is related to that (my previous phone was a SGS2).
Thank you all for the tips.

Not necessarily.
Card of class 4 may be good enough for your computer, specially if it is older too, but may be too weak for newest modern phone.

An SD card can't be 'too weak'

I bought an Samsung class 10 16GB SDCard for my phone but it doesen;t detect it. Other phones find the SD card without any problems. Anybody here to help me? (P.S. Yes the SD card is FAT32 formated)

Have you tried other cards? Off the top of my head I'd say to pay attention at inserting it properly.
Damn, your signature makes my teeth ache.
Try to install card and reboot device. I had the same problem.
