Ummm, you can get it in the market, TE that is.

sent from a series of tubes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
I can't get it from the market if the market doesn't work :confused: Am I missing something lol?

Edit: I was gonna just use the TB apk and back up TE and do it that way but... no File Explorer either..... So then I got the dumb thought of putting a File Explorer Apk on my sd but then I remembered I'd need the File Explorer to install the File Explorer so that kinda wasn't gonna work..... So I don't get how to do the Market Fix with no terminal Emulator and I don't know how to install TE with no FE.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] motoelliot:
Flash a ROM without firerats , download TE, and titanium backup, backup TE go into settings and create a flashable Titanium backup apk. Then do your firerats thing, flash your apk. Open ti n restore TE... Hope that helps...

Edit: you can make ti backup a system app when you create if you want, that's what I do.

Sent from A.W.E.S.O.M.-O
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
So just put tbackup.apk into system/app/ inside the zip before I flash it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] motoelliot:
From ti backup push menu, then "more" then create update.zip. then it'll create a flashable ti backup from recovery. ...

[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
Oh... Hehe... I knew that....... Okay, so I didn't... :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] motoelliot:
Then backup your apps, like file manager, terminal emu, whatever... Then after you flash your ROM, but BEFORE you flash firerats boot, flash your ti backup and whatever you needs already there. Even if the market doesn't work right away

Since I've upped my cache size to 32, I haven't had to s0be's market fix anymore. No more market issues. It is a sacrifice, but I can easily spare the space. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
Now that you have your TE, you should do the fix and get back your room. You wont need to use it again if you flash an update over it.

Flashing IS a gateway drug!

I am going to wipe cache and dalvik and flash this over the original OMGB build I am running now to see if I have any issues.

UPDATE: Weird issue... some of my apps were missing when I booted it up so I went back, wiped cache and dalvik again, reflashed the 12MAY jaybob build, flashed gapps 03/25, and things seems to be ok now. Makes no sense why some apps were missing and now they are back... oddness I say.

Faketastic!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] JJEgan:
Beware cheap memory cards is a very useful piece of advice .

They are also unbranded so even more suspicious .

Not saying anything wrong but if you by cheap memory cards from ebay you will know the score i am afraid .

[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
really :( i havnt purchased 1 yet but was thinking about it although i asked if i can collect with it being local, maybe i should try 1 out and let you guys no what there like?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Jabbypants:
I purchased a 16gb class 10 joyflash or something like that from ebay, it would barely transfer over 3.2mb/s and then it died that same day, my advice don't buy cheap cards.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sammy555:
yea i bought a cheap 32 of ebay from hong kong. fine at first then after 2 gb phone says card blank or unrecognisd format. ill get a 16gig sandisk for 15 quid of amazon at least it will work
[Galaxy S II Accessories] stoolzo:
all that glitters is not gold, give them a wide birth my friend.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jutley:
Sounds to cheap 32 gb cards start from £50 there is no way he is making money on them if they are original but I assume fakes cause he gets them cheaper than £18.47
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LarcusMywood:
I had a cheap (fake) 8GB Memory Stick Duo for my PSP from eBay, it stored a whomping 10MB!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
lol yeah think ill give it a miss, if most people say there no good ill agree, how come 16gb are nicely priced £15+ but 32gb is whooping £50+
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Beards:
Even cards being offered at £50 require an inordinate amount of inquiry.

As an example ~ last week I sent an email to an online retailer named Memorycardzoo.

The retailer is advertising a Sandisk 32GB MicroSD card as being Class 4 for £55.99 (see here).

My inquiry was to confirm this was indeed a Class 4 and not the slower Class 2.

The retailer replied immediately confirming the cards were correct in that they were Class 4.

I then sent a further message informing them that a lot of online retailers were advertising something that clearly was not as stated.

Again they came back very politely and professionally reiterating not to worry the cards were accurately advertised as Class 4.

As such I placed my order for said card.

Today I got back home to find a small package that had the card within.

On opening the package the card is indeed a Sandisk 32GB card BUT it is NOT a Class 4 but the slower Class 2.

I have just sent them an email asking them to explain their actions.

In the meantime I would advise anyone not to deal with Memorycardzoo until I have an answer.

I shall reply here when such reply is received.

Beards.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jutley:
I just bought this for £13.99 worth a try class 4 and you can even check on kingston china to see if they are genuine hurry though they are selling like hot cakes.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....531998&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_3949wt_922

Update only 7 left don't say I didn't tell you.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Aweb:
Thanks, also bought 2 here. I hope it works.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jutley:
Only 4 left he'll I just bought another one for fun hurry.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sammy555:
This is the one i bought-utter junk. the web adress on the packet is www.kinston not kingston. Notice that the light covers the kingston in photo. Think that did say kingston though but cant remember
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Doggonit:
So you can confirm that you bought and received this card from these people, and that what you received wasn't up to expectations? What was the problem? Was the capacity smaller than advertised? Was it too slow? Was it just a fake, through and through?

I just ordered one before you replied. I wonder if I can cancel an order now!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sammy555:
Not sure if it was these people but same card. worked fine at first 31gb available, stopped working after about 2 gig now nothing will even recognize the card-cant even format it. Make sure you make regular back ups of anything on card, i lost some stuff. Mabey mine was fake i wish you luck-ill never buy cheap hongkong again.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] nickbarbs:
WOW great find, bought one too, half the price of the fake on I bought for 26£ and am getting my money back
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
they look genuine to me, so i got 1 too, if they come and there not ill request refund lol.

:D

They sold 199 of them with no neg feedback so to me its a good buy :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jutley:
Hehe that's why I grabed two
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LarcusMywood:
Another way to tell whether a card is fake, SanDisk only manufacture Class 2 MicroSDHC cards, any higher and it is FAKE.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Doggonit:
Well, we'll find out what they're worth in about 2-4 weeks time when they start showing up. I'm not going to cry if I found out that I wasted 14 quid, but I'll definitely not be a happy bunny. If it's good though... :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
LOOK ON KINGSTON SITE THEY DO CLASS 4 32GB ONLY,

so carnt see its fake because its not class 2
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Beards:
You are wrong..... See here.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
agreed, 32gb are class 4
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jutley:
I emailed him before I bought and told him if anything is wrong or they are fake they are coming strait back to him and he was quite happy for a refund so nothing to loose.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jutley:
He also clearly shows when you get your card look at the back of the box tap the serial number on the website how it shows and your get a email back from Kingston so can't be bad either these are genuine or someone has gone through so much trouble to make them look genuine and for a fake card it's not worth all that trouble and he has sold 199 of them imagine if all 199 leave hime a negative I don't think so.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Doggonit:
Yeah, but you have to pay for return postage to Hong Kong! :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
i emailed too and they say genuine,
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MaxReality:
Save yourself the stress of trying to obtain a refund.

The flash memory market is so competitive, there is no magic cheap card. Just save and buy from a well known etailer like Scan or Dabs.

For the sake of 5 or 10 quid. It aint worth the risk.

Good Luck.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
trying? theres buyers protection via paypal and from 8 years of useing it ive not had no problem within the refund policy if an item isnt as decribed "Genuine".

I agree its best from a well known company but £13.99 and stated as genuine item with 199 sold, no neg feedback its worth a shot of any1s money.

And its rather an extra £40 not 5 or 10 lol
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Doggonit:
Well, for all we know, they may actually be genuine. In which case they probably fell off the back of a truck and hence why they're being flogged at this price.

That said, people emailing the seller, asking whether the cards are genuine: Are you kidding? Of course they'll say they're real, even if they aren't! You seriously expect them to confess to you that they're selling fakes? Ha! : )
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
Maybe not but i like to have the written info emailed to me as ill attatch to paypal dispute if there fake, always think a head :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MaxReality:
What does his feedback say? Usually the answer is there if they work or not.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Doggonit:
The feedback is perfect, but I've gotten fakes from retailers with perfect feedback from hundreds of customers before, so, I'll only believe it when I've seen it, tested it, tested it again, and even then... ;)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
indeed, wont take long to know if there fake, Theres more possibilty they are genuine as described than not, a long waited 2-4 weeks, my 4gb is bursting with no space available :(
[Galaxy S II Accessories] chizzwhizz:
my cheap card died on me

My 32 gb micro sd card died on me. I bought it from amazon for $33...

Things that were wrong:

1. I put my mp3 files on it and the phone could not recognize the file format...but if i put the files on the phone's 16gb they would play

2. Formatted the card and the mp3's were able to play. I connected to my pc to transfer some more files and .apk's over. After transferring the files, I tried to install the apk's but they wouldn't install due to a parse error, and the new mp3's I put on it couldn't play but the old ones were able to

3. Formatted again. When I put the card into the phone, it was unable to recognize the card. I put the card into my pc...it was unable to recognize that either.

So i'm left with a piece of plastic that isn't recognizable and im $33 poorer.

Say NO to drugs and cheap sd cards...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Beards:
Received a reply...... It was an error on their part and to rectify the problem they are sending me the correct Class 4 32GB card with a free returns slip for the Class 2 32GB card.

They apologized so all is well.

Job done. :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
Carnt complain :-)

only buy 32GB microSD from your local retailers

if it dies, you can always claim warranty on it

the ones from online/ebay is a loss loss situation when you try to claim warranty, not worth it

i suggest buying legit and direct from Kingston themselves

http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/con...kingston.com&ktcpartno=SDC4/32GBSP&referid=28

32 GB microSD class 4 $70 which is cheaper than when you buy them from local stores
[Galaxy S II Accessories] markbloke:
There are so many fake 32GB cards out there it just ain't funny. Many honest retailers don't know they're selling them.

Use a program called h2testw to check a card for true capacity. Don't trust me, google it and see why you need it.

Just formatting it won't tell you anything. A fake 32GB card will format as 32GB just fine. You'll be able to transfer 32GB of files to it and they'll all be there under file manager. Try playing back more than a few GB of them however and you'll be in trouble. Until you've written 32GB of data to it and retrieved and verified the data back you have no way of knowing. Good luck!

it needn't stop there. A bit like the genuine pandora braclets. Two emails ands even a very expensive international telephone call. Next week credit card company said a tile seller refused to sell to someone claiming to be me, five grand worth of tiles for pick up. They became suspicious because very obviously chinese sounding but british surname. I actually think the shop was genuine in not knowing they were fake (refunded), but not their banker.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] DJGibbon:
I've done a lot of buying and selling on ebay, and the only thing that I absolutely will not buy from there is SD cards. It's far too easy to take a cheap card with 2Gb innards and make it report 32Gb - it will look like files copied OK, and to most people that's all the testing they need to do to leave positive feedback.

These sellers don't care about negs anyway, they'll have 20 or 30 accounts which they can switch between or use to boost the feedback if they create a new one.

SD cards are too easy to fake and too hard for most people to test.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] ShaggyDragon:
This is the line on the ad that I find the funniest:

some cards become corrupt and lose capacity ranging from 1Gb - 32GB.

I simply bought the 32Gb card from Clove, nothing worse that losing all your data.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Abra_Cadabra:
Memory cards are one area I would not ever go to eBay for. Theres fraud happening on a massive scale with factory defects / outright fakes / mis-labeled capacity / etc etc.

Even original cards with so called reputable manufacturers have huge differences in performance. There are plenty of articles and test results if you spend some time on Google.

Even the same manufacturer can sometimes produce very different qualities depending on which factory produced the card. See this for example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oheA1aErXEs

There was a previous discussion on the subject last year here on the HTC desire forum on XDA - I did some tests at the time at posted results. See:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=689960

At least in my case a Class 10 Kingston performed worse than a class 4 SanDisk.

Personally I would stick with SanDisk whenever possible from a reputable seller (Amazon etc) as there are plenty of fake SanDisk cards to be had.

If it sounds too good to be true, it IS too good to be true.

just request 1, they can say no which then ul have to wait for your item and at that time u can request refund and post bk
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Doggonit:
Grrr... I have to wait until the [fake] card arrives. I bet my left testicle that it's going to be fake. I've got H2testw all ready and waiting for it. I bet return shipping to Hong Kong is only about 3-4 quid though, so not a total loss, but still. Aggravation of having to wait, then dispute it, and return it, and wait for the money to be returned.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
lol i chickened out, i requested refund to seller and they gave me money back straight away in paypal lol, u should try lol
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Doggonit:
I sent him a message. Got my refund on PayPal already. Impressive. I'll wait until the money clears with the bank, but so far so good.

The cards have to be fake. He wouldn't have given in so easily if he wasn't selling fakes!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vimto25:
Yeah easy enough when paypal is involved.

ill prob just buy a 16gb sandisc as there not too expensive.

Not had chance to read recent posts. But I had a quick internet search for suppliers of computer components in the UK.

The Lexar 32Gb Class 10 microsdhc... £40

http://www.lambda-tek.com/componentshop/index.pl?origin=gbase10.5&prodID=2106472

^ Not bad price but the write speed is just within spec( 10MB minimum write speed). So it is probably the slowest class 10 you can buy. Note: the class 10 relates to continuous writing of big files. It doesn't relate to how fast it read and writes very small files. Hence why many high class cards perform slower than low class cards, as previously mentioned. I would probably get this one, good price and looks like a legit company (wonder why they don't display their company registration number on the website - that's a legal requirement- http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/4eee4fd6e71b62b0ac1421dd4d7e7fba/compdetails). There's no reason to doubt. Not like some home based ebay trader, whoose bought a job lot from China. ;)

A speed test review... http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Lexar-32GB-Class-10-microSDHC-Memory-Card-Review_id2674

I think it offers a fair balance of space and speed. Unless anyone can guide us otherwise, I think I will buy this when I get my new phone in a few weeks. Will let you know how it performs.

Not cheap, but as you can see elsewhere in this thread, I don't think you can buy these cheaply. Oh, and it's real:

Although they sent me the wrong card they were quick to replace it with the correct card and sent me a paid returns envelope to send the incorrect card back.

Be careful with Komputerbay; it is not Amazon, but a seller within Amazon's ecosystem. Of course the agreement remains between you and Amazon, but the latter assumes no responsibility for the quality of the goods purchased through a third party!

I bought this from a seller called Jarlink on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003HIWHN0/ref=oss_product

Just put it in now, put it through a number of tests and seems genuine. 5.8MB/s Write, 12.1MB/s Read.

I think £49.00 is a damn good price for a 32gb Sandisk.
