Maximum Storage Card Capacity in O2 Orbit ?

[Anthony2oo5]

I have an O2 XDA orbit and used to have a 2GB SD card i it which worked fine but I have lost it. I am not looking to buy a new one and the prices have dropped so was thinking about getting a 4 or 8GB card but was wondering if my phone would be able to handle it.

Does anyone know if there is a maximum SD card size we can use in our O2 orbits?

Thanks for your time,

a friend of mine uses 8gb, there is a "patch" for it somewhere; dont know the link atm:cool:

Obviously the one named wm6 is for wm6, the other is for wm5 (although I think they both work for wm5)

Hi,

inside my Orbit, a 8GB SHDC card is working. I use the Artemis Touch 4.02 WM6.1 ROM --> the SDHC support is already implemented in this ROM --> no patch needed :).

Kind regards,

I just put a new Sandisk 8gb micro sd in my Orbit (using Artemis Touch 4.02 WM6.1 ROM) Works fine, shows as 8gb in Total Commander, but on my today screen (if I'm reading it right) it's indicating it's only 3686mb?

Have you formatted your micro sd card yet? If you decide to make sure you format it with fat32 selected.

No. I tried format from my pc card reader but it won't detect it. I didn't try to format in the Orbit (couldn't find the option) I found another screen (storage memory or some such) where it showed as 8gb, just not the today screen.
