Hi Guys,

I am in a bit dilemma whether to buy transcend 32GB or sandisk 32GB Card(Both are class 4).

please Help.

Thanks in Advance.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jamezco:
I bought a 2nd hand 8gb sandisk from a colleague of mine ... when i put it into the S2, it keeps getting blank SD... then format, after format, same issue ... getting blank SD again .... my colleague's HTC HD works fine with the card however am having problem with it ...

not sure if the card is fake a not ...

just thought i share my experience ...

ooo yah ... i put in a 2gb toshiba and it works fine ... no error on that ... so now am planning to get a 16gb toshiba class 4 ... :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] shrishail87:
Ya thanks for your reply.

But i just wanna know from somebody who has used transcend 32GB class 4 in S2 and should confirm that it works fine.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] freeze888:
Personally I purchased the Sandisk 32GB card but both cards should work fine. Check out this thread for more info: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1150369
[Galaxy S II Accessories] RoRo1990:
I would go with sandisk just make sure it is authentic
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tids2k:
sandisk it is ;)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Amokbunny:
Sandisk. Mine behaves like a Class6+ card, and is able to deal with everything the phone asks. Great value, would buy it again.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Swi7chblade:
Definitely a Sandisk. I bought a 32gb Class 4 from eBay. Handles everything I throw at it with ease. Authentic and real card too! c:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] shrishail87:
I am getting a transcend card for less price compared to Sandisk.

So confused..
[Galaxy S II Accessories] JayceOoi:
My SanDisk 32GB Class 4 benchmark. Below my expectation. :eek:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] freeze888:
What exactly are you confused about?

I got similar stats to you, what were you expecting?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] shrishail87:
Which one is worth buying?

Transcend is cheap compared to Sandisk.. So do they differ in performance?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] freeze888:
Well it really depends on how you plan to use your card. Do you plan to use it for storage only, or a mixture of storage / application use.

If you plan to use the card purely for storage, then I would suggest you purchase a class 10 card from any vendor for the faster read speeds.

However, if you plan to use the card for storage / application use, then I say go for the Sandisk card. It's been shown to provide the best in term of random write speeds which is essential.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to find a CrystalDiskMark report for the Transcend 32GB class 4 card so I can't comment on that.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] shrishail87:
Ya thanks.. I have decided to buy the sandisk:-)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] freeze888:
Glad I could help. :)

Sandisk performs better even at the same class.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] EarlZ:
Been using a Sandisk 32GB ( Original ) and it performs fine, transfer speed is a little low only going as high as ~6MB/s but mostly 5MB/s sustained.

I use it to store HD movies, first time though it stutters when playing something its a 3.87GB file and it jitters at fixed locations of the movie, I placed the same copy in the internal sd and I dont get the same jitters.. Im not sure if its the card not fast enough or its a sign of the card going bad.. other movies with a lower file size like 3.3GB plays w/o any stuttering at all.

New User

Hi guys, I'm a new owner of the GS2 (got it 6 days ago) and I would also like to ask about micro sd cards.

In particular, anyone having bad experience with ebay orders? Like fake products (ordering a class 6 card and getting class 4)?

Was thinking about 16gb class 6 sandisk, I don't think that I need 32gigs. Or should I go for 32? I mean, I really can't imagine filling all that space...

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Disfected:
Ordering from Ebay nets you mostly fake cards as in the size you ordered turns out to be extremely less than what you purchased. Like a 16gb card turning out to be only a 2gb card.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] spiros83:
Thought so... The price difference is not that substantial anyway. 33 euro for a 16gb class 6 card, 20 euro for a 8gb class 6 and lastly 69 euro for a 32gb class 4 though...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Declan79:
Whay is your purposed for having this microsd card? If it only for moderate usage class 2-4 is fine, heavy usage such as photo and hd movie must have class 6-10

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Upya:
I can't seem to find this offer, has it finished already?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Declan79:
Guys,

After i downloaded the SD Tools, i tested both my microsd 8gb class 2 & 1gb class 2 and i came to think that i doubt it the accuration of this software. Anyway what made me doubt its because in my 8 gb class 2 the write speed reach 6mb/s also the read speed around 15mb/s?

I mean how is something like this might happened? since my sdcard also not branded one, anyone?

thanks
[Galaxy S II Accessories] intruda119:
Most decent quality Sd cards read/write at a higher level than there class. My 32gb class 4 writes at 7mbs consistently. I think it might have something to do with consistency throughout the sd cards that determines class. I guess they rather under quote than over quote.

Even though your card is not branded it might have/most likely come from a big company. That sd card might not have past quality control so they usually sell them off.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Declan79:
So in that case its good enough to using class4 since mostly it always determines above that? kinda thought it might help me to decide:)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] intruda119:
I couldnt be happier with my class 4 32gb sd card. Ive been told anything over 4 is over kill unless your using a high def camera.

Im no expert but from what I gathered when using sd cards it depends on what your transferring. Usually copying a 1gb video file will be alot faster than copying 1gb worth of music files.

If your sd card is staying in your phone for the most part you should be fine with class 4. If you plan on removing the sd card often and plugging it into a computer directly youll be able to use speeds like a class 10 sd.

I had to weigh the same, but I found the price (about € 90, -) too expensive. So I ended up at a card from Transcend 16 GB Class 10. That performs just great and really I have more than enough storage space to more this device already has plenty.

[Omnia 7 General] Tabbs:
I recieved this phone yesterday so plugged in to pc and was offered 2 updates.

The first went fine but the second crashed with an error showing in Zune.

Managed to get it to reboot and it now shows 7.0.7392.0 but is very unstable, it will reboot itself after a while and it doesn't matter what program I am using, all seem to make it crash.

It will get stuck at the "Samsung Omina 7" screen unless I take the battery out for 5 mins

I also can have problems turning the device off, sometimes it will just come back on and refuse to be turned off !

I am thinking its either overheating or corrupted software ?

Any ideas as what I could try before it goes back ?
[Omnia 7 General] OndraSter:
Flash stock ROM, the update went wrong appearantly.
[Omnia 7 General] ballajalla:
Try to recover in Zune maybe first

p/s . i smiled today, ;)

yes, it would be overlap since the clock is "unmoveable"..

whoa..man.cooooool..you have helped me a lot with this app...aweeeeeeesoommmme.......

but one

thing id like to suggest .

u should upgrade this cool app and and more features such as selection of videos size (very important) becoz i also want to download 720p hd videos from you tube...and also...in the search page you can add the button of next page , previous page, and u can set the no of results per page to be 10.....

hope to seen your reply soon with the upgraded app..

once again many many thanks .....

reply...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zorc:
Glad you like the app, and I appreciate your suggestions, hopefully version 1.1 meets them all.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vizolover:
Works flawllesly on Samsung i900 winmo 6.5.3, awesome app mate and finger friendly!

Maybe an option to download a video directly to mp3? I know it's not easy since it must be converted somehow, but still i think a lot of people would love this option.

Oh, and the ability to skin is always nice ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zorc:
Converting to mp3 has always been a feature I wanted to do, but it's not as easy as it sounds, and this is just a little project I like to spend time on when I'm not at work or working on some other projects.

I won't mind giving the source code to anyone who would like to implement it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vizolover:
Yes i know, my best bet would be to try to use a free web service (like www.youtube-mp3.org ) and then download the converted mp3 from their servers...but that would need the site's permission i guess, and some complex coding? Anyway, keep up the good work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vyis:
Thanks, the search function is great, I like the search preview. Everything working as it should on my topaz.

One suggestion, is it possible to add a available quality choices menu before commence to download? (240p,360p,480p ...)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zorc:
Thanks for the suggestion, I might give it a try :)

That feature is available in version 1.1, you can find it in the attachments :)

in order to turn it on, you need to go to the settings page, and set "Downloade default ..." to "NO"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maximilliangreat:
Quite interesting program.

My suggestions:

(important)

It would be nice if one can get direct download link, instead of downloading file. It usable for pasting it to player (ex coreplayer).

(less important)

"Downloads" and "Settings" screens looks bad on QVGA.

Add option for non fulscreen mode.

Add option for default download format.

Make context popup menues.

Better support for 5 way navigation key.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zorc:
The aim of this app is to be a downloader not a player, since HTC Youtube Player does that for you.

I can't see a good reason to implement it.

The app hasn't been tweaked for QVGA, but seems like Settings page is not usable in QVGA, so I'll make sure to fix that in the next update.

Can you just give me more details on what's the problem with QVGA in Downloads screen ? (Please, try version 1.3 and tell me what you think)

A default download format is not as easy as it seems, since each video has a different set of supported formats, that's why the only default format can be "360p MP4" (which is available for all videos), other than that you can turn off default download format and choose from the list of supported formats for each video when you download it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maximilliangreat:
All of youtube players I tried on my device lags terribly. While coreplayer plays them smooth (300% in benchmark).

RTSP youtube streams gives bad quality.

So, such option would be VERY usable to me and many others.

1.3 Looks OK on QVGA, things like "speed", "error", etc still barely visible (too small), but that isn't very important.

Yep. But there is a way: if user chosen format not available, program asks which format to download.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vizolover:
Well.... that was fast!

Nice work, Version 1.3 runs great on Omnia!

I also tried it on a Samsung i8000 i got a .net error while i exited the app and re-open and tried to resume a download but i guess it has something to do with the .net framework version the phone's rom had installed maybe, (winmo6.5.3 23103).

Anyway, great stuff mate! :cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] raving_nanza:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mihals1:
this is exactly the type of app I've been looking for for some time now! I've been using Getytv, but since YT has changed their proxy, it stopped working and the developer is no longer working on any updates.

MANY MANY THANKS!!!

One thing I would suggest (if possible), to add a possibility to update to new version straight in the application.

And also, having the toolbar with battery status and signal strenght visible, would be useful. I spend a lot of time browsing and downloading vids, so I need to go back to homepage everytime I want to check battery.

other than that, it works smooth on my HD2, design is pretty cool and fresh!

Thanks again, keep up the great work!

BTW: in the "about" screen you have v1.2, but it's downloaded as a v1.3 ;o)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Grooge:
Thank you.

testing looks nice.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mihals1:
probably last thing comes to my mind. would it be possible to give a choice of save directory? I mean it would be great to save vids straight to storage card. there are few vids bigger than my device memory and I can't DL them.

Thanks again!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zorc:
You can easily change directory from Settings page, that's been supported since the first version, you can also use an integrated folder browser to select the directory you want, from either main memory or storage card, tell me if you can't find it ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zorc:
First, I'm glad you like it.

Sorry, can't do updates from the device immediately, because that requires a server to monitor the versions, and I don't have one :(

Version 1.4 allows you to change between Full Screen and Normal Modes, thanks for the suggestion ;)

haha, I noticed the "About" screen wasn't updated, fixed that in version 1.4

Thank You.

Glad you liked it, hope to see it in your rom :)

First, thanks again for your suggestion (using an online web service) worked like a charm, and surprisingly, it took me less than 30 minutes to write the code for it :)

Not sure about i8000, it's been tested on many devices, and all worked fine, maybe it has an older version of .NET framework.

The QVGA support has been improved in version 1.4

Downloading URLS is supported as well now, you have a good point.

About default download format, I'm sorry but, that might be confusing to users, if the format wasn't found, I always like to keep a consistent behaviour in the app.

I hope you like the new changes, and thanks for your suggestions :)
