Any way to get my information on my current micro to another micro without damaging root?

Swapping microsds won't mess up your root access.

Zombies ate my Inspire

Swapping cards won't breath root. If you want to transfer info over just use the computer. Take everthing off of the old one, format the new one, then put everything back on the new one.



I got your 10char right here

SD Card content (your files) has nothing to do with rooting your device. Obtaining root may have involved flashing a file that you initially saved on the SD card-- that's it.

I swap cards in a straightforward, rudimentary way. I place one card in a reader on my pc and either put the other card in another reader or just leave it in the phone with "disk drive" as my "Settings-->Connect to PC" setting. I just drag whatever files I want, or everything, from one card's window to the other. I have never needed any more sophisticated method for 4/8/16/32/64 GB microsd cards over dozens of swaps.

How do I format a 64g?

Your computer will most likely want to format it exfat or ntfs. Go ahead and format it with exfat. Then place it in your phone. Then use your phone to format it again. I think you have to go to settings > storage > unmount the card > then format it. Then you can place it back in your pc or use a cable to copy all your files back.

^^Agoattamer speaks with wisdom.

However, I went the lazy route and just stuck my 64 GB microsd in my HTC Inspire (red) to format since I don't like opening/closing the Inspire's covers too much. The phone formatted the new card and it showed up as having 59.3 GB available, IIRC.

I always do a full format on a pc with all my cards first. I just want to make sure they are completely wiped clean first.

Inspire will most likely report the card as damaged and needing a format when you first insert it.
