[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysGhost:
It's not about the reformat. It's lower than that.

When id comes to SDcard readers, micro or normal, there are basically two types:

Type 1:

Hardware/firmware-driven, that uses it's own hardware to manage the basic functions of the SD-card and presents is as an UMS device (USB Mass Storage)

The benefit from those readers are less utilisation of the main CPU followed by higher throughput.

The backside is the limited support of what standards it can use.

Type 2:

Software/"dumb" reader. It'll just provide a "physial" connection to the underlying USB-system, and presents it "as is": a SD-card flash memory.

In this "dumb" mode, the Operating system must provide all the routines in order to communicate properly with the attached SD-card.

The benefit with those are full range compatibility with future standards, but it depends on software, drivers and the main CPU, which might result in slightly lower speeds and "sluggishness" as the IO-operations increases.

However, if the OS and the SDHC/SDXC drivers in question is poorly optimised, the hit on the CPU can be drastically high whenever a read/write occurs.

So, which one is prefered then?

It's up to the manufacturers of the hardware and the operating system.

In our case here, Android can use both UMS devices, as well as generic/default SDHC and SDXC flash cards.

In my opinion, the type 2, "dumb" readers, are the "best" ones.

The only limitations of what cards these readers can use, is only limited by the operating system and the kernel modules/drivers provided.

And the "load" on the CPU as generally so small it's often neglectable, provided the drivers and OS is well optimised.

Which type the X10 smartphone uses I cannot tell.

I simply don't know, but it sounds promising, as there haven't been any "corrupted data" reports from the few who are using 64GiB cards...

... yet!

If the X10 smartphone does utilise the type 1 reader, the firmware/hardware based one, it might "kick back", as data stored beyond the 32 GiB limit of the readers limitation, might just "disappear into the void", never reporting any errors.

Users might notice this first when they try to access the previous stored files and finds out the content returned are just a stream of nulls. (null = digital void, nothing, nada, true zero, blank)

If and When this happens, only time can tell.

Someone has to try fill the card "to the brim", and copy back the content verifying everything is correct and proper.

Not just the filenames and filesizes, but also the content itself. (Checksum methods should suffice)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scratchling:
Just to +1 the above post. When the manufacturer states a maximum card size its not what the phone can mount but what it can reliably use. There's a good chance that you'll have corruption if you continue to use it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysGhost:
Anyone got any news on this?

Does it truly work with all 64 Gibibytes, or is only half of it useful as I suspect?

Then Phone Plays dead with a Corrupted MicroSD Card. Wont start up !

put the Card into SD Card and reade on my computer and that one says corrupted format. Need to reformat -.- But then "Computer cant Format that card" -.-

AND the Card gets ****ing HOT! nearly burnt myself! more than 50°C for sure! Also only shows 30MB space! But i had over 40gb data on it! so its a real one!

Guess i'll got an defective Card -.-

But about the Read/write values. had something like 6-7mb write and 30mb read.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I_@m_me:
i dont think phone compatibility is the cause here you should have errors and possible file system corruption not frying a card unless microsdhc and microsdxc have very different voltage and the software detects the card as a microsdhc card and overvolts it btw does the phone work still ?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddanat:

sandisk sdxc 64 gb

hi Forum,

i guess we fried it :)

i put one into an p6800, tried to format, as suggested by other users here.

-tab froze. and it wouldn't recognize a card being in the slot.

-windows aborts, saying that it couldn't finish the formatting

-diskpart aborts similarly

-parted live can't see the card

-QNAP nas simply aborts

any ideas to get this alive again ?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hzu:
No, we're still not confirmed if it's fully working yet, as it's the matter of hardware limitation. The guy above you, got his card broken because he used it with the X10. So I suggest not to use on it yet, if you already have.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m01170m:
OMG....I just plan to buy it...lucky haven't buy yet..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TesseractE:
I have an x10 and I grabbed a 64gb MicroSDXC card a while back on Amazon for $60. The only problem I had was recently when I tried to upgrade from a GB ROM to one running ICS. For some reason, the card was making it spontaneously reboot. After a reformat, it's been working just fine.

There's a bit of a trick to formatting it, too. If you're lucky, you can just slap it in and tell Android to format it. That'll get it set up just fine. If not, plug it into your PC and format it with the FAT32 filesystem with cluster sizes of 32kb. Make sure it's formatted as a Primary Drive and not Logical, and you should be good to go. For this, I found a free option online called 'EASEUS'. Quite easy to find with a quick Google search.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] praondevou1:
Works great

Even though it's an old thread I thought I post my experience here. Bought this card from Amazon for $60: "SanDisk Ultra 64 GB MicroSDXC"

(I can't post links because I don't have enough posts, just search for the above term on Amazon)

I put my whole music collection of 60Gb on it. It works flawlessly. Tested it with Winamp and some other players. I tested the same card on a Verizon Eris Droid, works also, but it didn't have enough computing power. The X10 handles this amount of data without any problems. I can browse within the collection (with winamp) without disturbing delays.

That's it. No need for an Ipod touch.

Good luck

(If 128Gb wasn't so expensive I would have tried this) :o
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Goodvibes:
SanDISK 64GB SDcard partitioned

Inserted my new 64GB SanDisk UHS-I card into my XPERIA X10i.

ROM: GB 2.3.3 (reduced to 95 system applications)

Kernel: DoomKernel V6 operationally clocked at 1113MHz

Features: XPERIA S applications and Home Launcher

Data Partition: Linked via Link2SD

SDcard: 64GB SanDisk Ultra® microSDXC™ UHS-I

Battery: 1800mAh Mugen Power Battery

Tested the original 64GB exFAT card prior to FAT32 format on my Win7 PC using CrystalDiskMark, HDTune and ATTO benchmark and all returned around 10-13MB sequential write and around 18MB read (Max threshold of my card reader not known)

Formatted the SanDisk 64GB card to FAT32 and 32K cluster size and re-tested the benchmarks with the same results.

Created a second primary 1GB partition formatted as ext3(cause for some result my X10i doesn't like ext4 at the moment)

Used my NAS to copy over my Link2SD partition data from my old 32GB SanDisk UHS-I card, inserted the card and rebooted the phone.

Everything can be seen OK with all applications accessible.

I did mount the card prior to adding the second partition and it showed ~59GB available data in setting->storage. This was what was shown in Win7 both as exFAT and FAT32. The raw SDcard size is seen as ~63GB.

Most Android SDcard benchmark applications show a write speed of 6-8MB and a read speed of up to 18MB. There are constraints on the 64GB card due to the size of the data structure regarding access speed using FAT32.

Other than all the above voodoo there is no real difference to the phone other than the fact I now have 58GB of available disk space. :D

I could place some of my 720p Video and .flac Music library on the card to see how it goes above 32GB, but I thought I'd run it with just a minimal amount of data on it to see how it goes over a week or two.

The funny thing is that with BSPlayer (video player) and Neutron Music player I can(and do) stream all my videos and music from my NAS with only a few music albums of the week on my phone.

Samba FileSharing App. provides great SDcard access over WiFi AP or WiFi hotspot for low-speed 64GB 'mobile file server' access on the go.

AnTuTu benchmark returns the following disk access results, which are optimistically higher than any other SDcard benchmark. ;)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Helron:
Using Moto roid Razr and 32gb Sandisk works well. Went from GB, to ICS, to root to Kexec and all is well. Wondering if it is possible via a PC to simply create 2 32gb partitions on the Sandisk? Wonder if phone will accept? Folks on this board have a lot more wisdom than I, and I suspect I am howling at the moon. Pls advise thaks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
I really hate to start another "best ROM" thread but I need some help from experienced Nexus users. I recently rooted my girls Nexus S in order to get rid of some of the bugs with the stock ROM. I put the latest CM stable on the phone but after a few days she started complaining about random reboots. I'm looking for a stable (stable being the keyword) ROM, with maybe a few added features. Also considering just putting a custom kernel with the stock ROM but once again looking stability. I wish I could just steal her phone for a week and find out for myself but sadly I cannot. Thanks for any suggestions! :D

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] clfosk:
Okay I put this together to fix the extremely low brightness on the Samsung Focus S. It simply increases the brightness level of the low setting and brings it closer to the brightness of the low setting on the Focus. It will not do anything if you have your phone on automatic!

Deploy the attached xap to your unlocked device

Open the app (name is File Deployer) and then exit

Go to diagnosis app (dial ##634# to install)

*#9908# for GPRS Manager

Select 'low brightness fix'

Hit Save then Close

Restart!

It has RunADC enabled so it will NOT mess up your signal, data, or MMS settings.

Also, make sure you go to Extra Settings and shut off 'auto display intensity'. Unfortunately the setting doesn't stick (even after the update!) so you will need to go back shut it off after every restart.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] mlekas:
Thanks for making this available. Just got the Focus S and the screen is quite dim.

*#9908* doesn't do anything - I had to use *#9908#.

Screen is brighter in both auto and Medium modes.

Can I uninstall File Deployer once I've made the change in the Diagnosis app?

thanks again,

Michael
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] clfosk:
Yes thanks the correct code is *#9908#

The screen shouldn't be any brighter in medium or auto because it doesn't change the settings for those. If you shut off Auto Display Intensity it will help those settings though. Yes you can uninstall the app after using it.

I have noticed one bug, after you soft reset and turn off Auto Display Intensity again it will go back to the original (very dim) low setting. You'll need to go back to brightness and change it to anything then back to low.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] O_G:
Is this device specific, or will it work with all WP7 devices?

Thinking this should be moved to the Samsung focus forum.

Peace.

Edit The name change works for me. it stays here:) Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] clfosk:
It should work on any Samsung device. It simply edits HKCU\ControlPanel\Brightness\LowBrightness from 0 to 5.

Are we ever gonna get a Focus S forum?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Marvin_S:
do you also know how to change the auto dimming on the omnia7/focus when there are more than a certain amount of white pixels on the screen?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
@clfosk: Pretty sure you don't even need to open the app once. The file that needs to be deployed is copied by the XAP installer itself, not by the app - I suspect the app is a total dummy. You probably do have to run the instructions before uninstalling the app though - it might take the deployed file away with it again otherwise (or it might not, haven't actually tried this yet).

Good day XDA,

Woke up today to a phone that was having sim card issues. i restarted the phone and it kept having the same issues. I reseated the sim card and still the same issue. And then it turns from a simple SIM card issue to a whole system issue. I restart the phone and the HTC screen will load and then the phone turns off. I can only load into bootloader and cannot access recovery.

I attempted to flash recovery manually via fastboot but get an error about it not being allowed.

I suspect this is because I do not have an engineering hboot. What should i do next? Any tips?

First off, I don't think the SIM card can cause this problem so that's not really the issue with not being able to boot.
