4GB MicroSDHC with HTC Touch ?

[bitbonk]

Can the HTC Touch take 4GB MicroSDHC cards?

[k2seh]

i heard that the newer ppc's should support it. I hope im right :)

anyone else know anything about this?

[Zyberdog]

The specifications for the HTC Touch says it supports the standard "SD 2.0". This standard includes SDHC (Cards from 4-32gb), and have seen a few users say they are using a 4gb card in their touch (search will reveal who).

Here (DK) the only 4gb MicroSDHC card available is Class 2, so I wont be going for the 4gb (or 8gb for that matter) card until I can get atleast Class 4, preferably Class 6.

You can read more about SDHC in general on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital_card#SDHC).

Hi,i'm actually using 4gb microsd HC from SanDisk.
Everything work perfect without any problem.
Mine Touch have Italian software but i don't think different language firmware could have limitations about memory size....i hope :-)

Bye.

you said that you have a 4Gb Card.

were did you buy it?

Tanks

[unodbs]

Hi,from ebay the object number is :160135130187 but maybe now you'll find more than this model cause the demand is growning......and maybe the price will be lower.

[djsell@earthlink.net]

has anybody actually used an 8 gb micro sdhc card in a touch yet?

i know there was some discussion about the availability of this size card, and that it was available for quite a few pounds(dollars for me), and i believe someone had purchased it, but never really heard of the results.

if someone has please post, and please let us know where it was purchased and for how much. also, if outside us whether you know if it can be delivered to the usa.

thanks in advance

Did you test the card? E.g. fill it up to over 2gb, like 2.5gb and then see if the phone writes on it etc. 'Cause the picture on Ebay appears different from the one that Verizon carries which should be the real one.

It is good that it works on the Touch, since I just ordered a Touch. I've tested my card, it works flawlessly on the TyTN and I filled it up to test.

[unodbs]

Just end the fill up test on SDHC 4 gb,no problem it works :-)
I've made some copy of 98mb files and also 2 copy of tomtom map file (about 518mb) now memory info report just 84.03 mb free and 3794.47 used of 3878.50 total space on microSd card.
Thank to Doni for suggest me the test.
Pls guys forgive my poor english.

You can get it here for 36quid inc postage http://www.mymemory.co.uk/Micro-SDHC

or if you want to use ebay I see they are around 32 or 33quid inc postage from reputable sellers

[zachr3]

how significant is class 2 and class 6 micro sdhc cards? compared to the standard 50x micro sd cards.

the class 6 micro sd sdhc doesnt come cheap but the class 2 and class 4 seems reasonable..

[maevro]

I got the 4GB Sandisk card today and it works well.

[m15chief]

£29.99 including p&p on play.com at the minute....

Damnit, knew I should have waited...

That's a SD not a SDHC card. It will still work though.

You can get the 4Gb SDHC card on eBay for £32 and you also get a Micro SD to SD Card Adapter and a SDHC USB Card reader in with the price :)

The fact that its 4GB means it has to be SDHC... The HC stands for High Capacity

[lukeap69]

maybe not.

there is a 4gb sd and 4gb sdhc.

[CJSIMPSON]

have just got a 4GB SDHC Micro Sd card from Amazon including an sd to micro adapter and a sandisk micromate (adapter type thing not used yet) for £24.95 + p+p in total came to less than £30.

Works fine for me so far despite HTC telling me they only support 2 GB cards, mine is an MDA touch from Tmonile but I dont think that will make much difference.

[Doctor Mick]

maybe not.

there is a 4gb sd and 4gb sdhc.

No he's right. On research I find SD only goes up to 2Gb. The SDHC uses FAT32 file system to be able allow higher capacities. 8Gb card coming out next year.

Anyway, for me extra 2 squids I got a couple of adaptors.

Really?

I thought these are standard SD.

According to this link, yes.

[jdac21]

nope dont work with mda touch

[hb328_dtdd]

Got my 4gb micro sd SanDisk a couple of days ago and it works great. Only 27pounds delivered as well !

[terra65]

Just received my 6Gb (sixGB!!)Sandisk microSDHC. Works like a charm on my Touch :) Ordered yesterday, delivered this morning. Suppose when the 8GB comes out it won't give any problems either. Not bad at €58....

[bill_viper]

6GB???!! Wow!! And the price is very very good!!

terra65 can you give us a link from where you bought it? :)

[terra65]

Sure ! Just have a look here: http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/160584/Sandisk-microSDHC-6GB.html

Here you find a couple of webshops with the 6GB in their shop, however most of them have a pre-order status or 5-10 days delivery time. Expect they will be able to deliver within the next few days/weeks

http://www.interngeheugen.com/prodlijst.odb?select=%5ESANFLASH%5E does have it in stock. My experience with them is great

Cheers !
(Am I the 1st with a 6GB ???? Will change my nick into Gadget-Woman ;) )

[tajw]

Got my 6GB sandisk on Monday from Moby Memory - no issues yet

[Random Access]

Ordered a 6GB as well. I'll get it in about a week. Not that I need to do more stuff with the phone than I already am but it will be fun to have some music and funny clips on it.

[henftling]

...no problems with Geman Touch...wrote card completely full and worked well...sooooon...no more iPod...when hey have the 16GB ready

[Firewired]

Here's SanDisk's take on Touch supporting MicroSD cards
http://sandisk.com/Compatibility/Device(8489)-HTC-Touch.aspx

4GB is Class 2, 6GB & 8GB are Class 4 devices.

and here is some great bundle prices available
http://www.mobymemory.com/micro-SD.asp

[who_else]

I just saw an 16 GB SDHC Card (Class 6) for around US $ 180....

sounds like a deal to me, right?

Best

[jumong69]

Patriot 4GB SDHC class 6 works on Canadian HTC Touch. I paid around &70 CAD.

[Slayer23]

I got mine Kingston 4 GB SDHC which is class 4 :)

[youn54]

The 8Go Sandisk card work perfectly with the HTC touch

[nickmgray]

I think someone needs to clarify what class really means. HTC supports up to class 2 micro sdhc cards. Class referres to the read and write speed of the memory card, not the compatability. Class 4 and 6 cards have a much faster read and write speed which the HTC touch does not support, that just means it reads and writes data to these cards at a class 2 speed. The touch should be compatible with all Micro SDHC cards which I believe SanDisk said will max out at 32GB before they create a new standard (which may still be compatible).

[Slayer23]

I'm using Kingston SDHC 4Gb (Class 4) for over a month now - dunno what the prices are nowadays, but bought it here http://www.alza.cz/pametova-karta-sandisk-micro-secure-digital-transflash-4gb-sdhc-s-sd-adapterem-d79201.htm for under 30 euros, which is nice i think, so for CZ guys - no better choice for lifetime warranty

[namwollem]

Hi folks! I use an 8GB Sandisk microSD in my Touch, and have done since I first got the phone back in September last year! Its has worked faultlessly carrying about 750 MP3 tracks and about 50 hours of TV and DVDrips. The important thing to remember is that you MUST format the card before using it, as many users on this forum have had problems caused by not formatting.

I got it from eBay for about £55 (GBP), but you can now get them for about £35 (GBP)!

Hope this helps guys!

[avington]

Try formatting it in your computer first, using a card reader or usb adapter.
