beware do not use more than 2gb in the sd card reader of your universal!.

i screwed up 2 of my cards permanently. 4gb and 8gb. both got reformatted to 2gb and now they wont go back to 4gb and 8gb. its like i never had a 8gb or 4gb to begin with....
i am really sad, and i cant seem to get the tech support to reply or any faq's available on sandisk to help me.
i will be exchanging them for the 2gb cards. i guess i am going to have a huge stack of 2gb cards. this time most likely i will go for mini-sd.

BTW, did you try the tricks described at http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=47204 ? It helped a lot in cases like this.

Do you mean partition the card? Ah i see what you mean now.... The universal must have partitioned the 4GB card to 2GB each. Except the other 2GB is hidden. I see. Good observation. I will get it back with partition magic ;) .... thanks so much. I almost lost all hopes. This time i will partition the card. 2GB each right? How many storage cards will be visible in the Universal once i make a partition? I believe 2 should be visible right? Anyways i am going home and trying this today. Its just like my Hard drive eh.

all i can say this "nuclear" guy is a noob and he is wrong.

MY 4Gb SD Transcend works flawlessly in qtek9000 without any problem as a whole without any partitioning.

i agree with zeer, i'm also running 4gb sd card (but with two 2gb partitions)
@nuclear in THIS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286729) thread you are saying that you are succesfully running 8GB sd card to watch dvd movies.. now you are saying that even 4gb sd cards won't work on universal :p you have to decide what is you final word :p

I am only trying to get help on my SD card. If you cannot help please do not post unneccessary things on the forum as it is only meant for developers and people seeking help. I am not the first to experience this problem and I wont be the last.
Also xqizit thats really sexist of you, calling me a guy, do not make false conclusions. Follow proper discipline, etiquate and rules on the forum and stop harassing me. Fake messages you say? I have a problem regardless of it being fake or real. It follows the proper rules of xda-developers, its you who has gone crazy. You just hurt a persons feelings, by being sexist and saying "this guy" and "get rid of him". Just think before you baffle stuff out because it might hurt someone.
xqizit I suggest you visit a psychiatric or a psychologist clinic immediately before your character gets worse on the forum.

My unpartitioned 4gig SD card serves me well in my Universal. Bloody nonsense

My unpartitioned 4gig SD card serves me well in my Universal. Bloody nonsense
Same observation:
My 4 GB SD works fine: one partition, 3,68 GB; FAT 32; cluster size:4096
On the other hand: 8 GB SD cards are available only in SDHC format (SD ver 2.0) and Universal or other pda's can't recognise them.
