Yup got mine at Target, 8gb Class 6!!

My best buy had them too but Target was like $8 cheaper plus an extra 10% off with my girlfriends employee discount.

i got this case because i was worried my g1 screen and the invisashield did not have enough shock protection for me. the screen cover is a little flexible and can be scratched on the out side. but for me its worth it you for the added protections. 3 to 5 bucks they went a little i got mine for 1.99 but well worth it.

I have been to 3 Best Buys, each had SD cards in different areas. I bet they have them you just need to find them. Plus I got a 4GB Class 6 for 25 bucks. It was the cheapest of the 3 I went to.

Target had a class 6 8gb for 17.99 and one for 34.99.

Only difference was the brand. 17.99 was Transcend and 34.99 was... Lexar I believe.

Not sure why one was double the other.

What effect does the thicker Seidio 2600 mAh have on the camera and speakerphone?

With the added thickness of the Seidio 2600 mAh I was wondering if there were any adverse effects on the camera or speakerphone.

Can someone who has this battery offer any impressions?
[G1 Accessories] PSP_Hacker:
2400mah battery case

Yea, I wonder the same thing.

How does the new case affect the speaker? Does the case feel cheap?
[G1 Accessories] r3v3nant:
I am sure you'll get it but it might take a while... they did the same thing to me when I bought the so-called 1600mah battery which I think is a 1150mah... anyways.. they are pretty deceptive, in that, they like taking your money and then letting you know something is out of stock. This is business as usual for them imo.

So due to work I can't leave my phone off while the battery charges... and trying to calibrate a new battery with the phone on doesn't seem to be very effective.. the battery meter is pretty whacked out still after my calibration is/should be done... This is the only phone I have ever had which doesn't seem have a good battery meter, in that I mean, I have never had to have the device off to calibrate the battery well... is it an issue with the G1's hardware with the OS? I guess I need to get that cradle with the spot for the extra battery... hrm.

edit #2 - I finally got a very good charge out of my battery by taking it down to 5% and charging it overnight (with the phone on, but no user input use). I am going to do this two more times in a row.. then do that once a month... I hate taking a lithium ion battery all the way to zero because of the issues I have had with li-po batteries... they really don't like that so I am taking it down almost to zero then charging back up.

Mirco Sd

ok so ive searched and searched but cant find the answers to my question. ive been thinking bout getting a larger sd card prolly the 8 gb so i can dump more apps and more music on the g1 but i dont kno what i should be looking for i see class 4 and class 6 dont know what the differance is but im lookin on newegg.com(really good prices) so if someone could give me a gental kick in the right direction that would be AWESOME!

**also i want to do apps2sd and possiably hero with rosie not sure if that affects the card selection**

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211270

thats the one i thinking but not sure if its a good deal...help?
[G1 Accessories] shockd:
If you're thinking of going the Rosie route I would recommend Class 6, even if you just want to do apps2sd. Class 6 has a faster read/write speed than Class 4 so anything SD related will run faster if you have a higher class.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211351

Just a couple more bucks :P
[G1 Accessories] bladepbc:
awesome thanks for the help and i was just looking on radioshack.com and they dont have a class listed just says

"Optimal speed and performance for microSD compatible devices" and as i was looking most online retailers dont list a class.
[G1 Accessories] uberingram:
3 Best Buys here in the valley and no luck at all. One Best Buy employee told me there is no such thing as a class 6 microSD card. Another Bust Buy employee told me my phone was made by LG and therefor "****". Is this what high school football players do when they don't make the college cut? Work retail?
[G1 Accessories] shockd:
Yeah you have to be careful about that... even if they say "Optimal speed and performance" it doesn't necessarily mean its Class 6. Just do some research on a card you found and I'm pretty sure you will be able to find which class it is.
[G1 Accessories] Senorkabob:
Look for a 'C' with a 6 inside of it on the card. Every class 6 card I've had has that logo.
[G1 Accessories] dkb218:
..and no matter the rom, for apps2sd, go with the class 6. I did it on a class 4 and was about to throw my phone out the window!
[G1 Accessories] jaboswell:
Yup I paid $17.99 minus a mere 10% for employee discount, plus 5% tax..so I paid $17.09.

Its Transcend but never had a problem with that brand before..but i do recall last september reading the beat out sandisk and kingston for selling the most sdcards/flash drives..

is sd card class really that important?

Hey guys,

I have a 16gb class 4 sdcard and I keep having problems with apps2sd2 and martinfick sdsplit and lucid. I'm using cyanogens v3.4 w/1.2recovery and new hero theme. And pretty much once a day my phone says sd damaged/unmount....then it says my sd card is blank... But when I had it as just fat32 it was working fine. Does having a class 6 card really help?
[G1 Accessories] ryan75:
yes. get a class 6 8GB at target for 19.99. sounds like your card is hosed anyway.
[G1 Accessories] teh_lorax:
Apparently, just saying Class 6 don't mean ****e. The difference between class 4 and class 6 is 1.2 mb/sec.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital_card#Speeds

It seems the speed rating is more important.
[G1 Accessories] underamoon:
Class cards

I have run apps to SD on the stock card and it works fine. I replaced the stock with a 16gb class 6. The difference is that the apps are more snappy. Copying to and from a PC is a lot quicker. Installing apps are quicker on class 6.

It sounds like your card might be corrupted. Try reformatting your card before you scrap it. Try downgrading then re-installing your custom roms.
[G1 Accessories] atlmatt:
there seems to be a issue with class 4 cards. In being that most all of them suck. The stock card worked great for a while, But with cache/apps o the SD you want a class 6 otherwise you may experience issues. running apps only on stock SD hardly ever acted funny till i put cache on it.
[G1 Accessories] kyleds:
tried it

I've reformatted back to just fat32 3 times already and tried using apps2sd, sdsplit and lucids script for sdsplit and it did the corrupt sdcard and unmount. Then when phone reboots it says sdcard is blank
[G1 Accessories] glock30:
I was kind afraid to try the apps 2 sd on my class 4 8gig card, but in the end, it works pretty quick... I think it depends on manufacturers as well... most likely higher quality will lead to a faster card. That is just my .02 though
[G1 Accessories] brandenk:
I have tons of SD/miniSD/microSD cards in all types of devices. In my experience stick with name brands and you get what you pay for. Here are the ones I used in my phone before settling down with my 16GB from A-Data.

2GB Sandisk class1 - works good

4GB Kingston class4 - works great

4GB Patriot class6 - boat loads of problems even after 2 replacements

16GB A-Data class6 - works flawlessly
[G1 Accessories] 71CH:
I read somewhere that class 4 really does suck. To the point where class 2 is sometimes recommended over class 4. I had a class 4 and had to eventually scrap it because it kept messing things up. Am now impatiently waiting for my class 6 to arrive in the mail. :D
[G1 Accessories] brandenk:
I think in a lot of cases people were using the SD card that came with their phone which is a slower class but its well made, from there they would get a cheapo class4 and begin having issues with it and then update to a name brand class 6.

I dont think the issue is that Class 4 is bad (which seems unlikely), I think its just the chain of events most people go through and the assumptions that have arisen from those common problems.

I have a 2gb card and want everything on the ext3 to be switched over to my new partitioned SD card so when I stick it in my phone, everything is fine. Any way to do this safely? Or is the best way reinstalling every single app and run cryogen's apps to sd in his recovery 1.2?
[G1 Accessories] RichieDaze:
Classes only tell you the minimum transfer rate of write speed of the sd card. Say its a class 2, which most standard cards are, this specifies from the company a minimum of 2mb per second of write speed . If it's class 4, then a minimum of 4mb. Class 6, 6mb of write-transfer rate per second at the least. This doens't mean they run at minimum speed neither. Lol

Higher amp charger will charge your battery faster and generate More heat. A higher amp charger will not charge you battery more than a lower amp charger, but the lower amp charger will take longer to get the job done!

[G1 Accessories] prophetz:
You are not realy taking it down to zero, you are taking it to the point that the phone will no longer turn on. It is either 3.2 or 3.5 volts cant remember what one. The battery still has a charge in it at this point but the phone will not operate at this low voltage! You may have some 200mAh or so left in the battery at this point! The phone operates at 3.7 volts!

[G1 Accessories] q426669:
Question about new SD card.

I just bought a Tanscend 8GB SDHC Class 6 microSD card.

My SD card reader doesn't seem to be SDHC compliant.

So I put the card into my phone, and the phone can see it, and see the free space. However, the Format option is grey. When I plug it into my computer, it will show up for a moment, then disappear. The it flashes "Preparing SD-Card" in notifications, and I get the option to "Mount" again. When I touch "Mount" after this first time, it appears for a millisecond, before I see "Preparing SD-Card" again. Loop as many times as I feel like letting it.

Any suggestions? Defective? Need to format it properly first?

Also - I'm using JF's 1.5, I forget what version exactly. No apps2sd yet, need to get this SD card working first lol.

And I did try a couple searches, however I was not able to get an answer to this, though it is definatly possible I missed it. Thanks again for the help!

I use Win7 and it support SDHC cards no problem. Most likely it is your SD Card reader. It does sound like it hasn't been formatted properly however there are some threads about where SD Cards are not mounting correctly. Try a search.

Also if you have a netbook/laptop around with an internal memory card slot, try it there.
[G1 Accessories] Buster3616:
Same thing happened to me with the same memory card. Just go into hardware monitor when the sd card is in your reader (all readers are compatible, its software not hardware) then right click the mass storage device under USB and select uninstall. After, just right click anything and click scan for hardware changes. itll find and automatically install the card. Should be good after that.

[G1 Accessories] benmyers2941:
I actually ended up picking this one up myself and I'm pretty happy with it. Overall the quality is inline with the cost. The swivel on the clip is rather stiff, and the clip itself is entirely molded plastic. The "leather" is definately not real, but you can only tell with close inspection and it doesn't have that leather smell.

Has anyone found a decent case at a cheap price for those of us using the extended battery?
[G1 Accessories] droid01:
I too have the seido 2600 on my g1 / Dream

Interested in finding a extended holster too. As yet ive not found any.

I require a holster that is heavy duty ( sewn loop ) not a clip.

No magnets ( messes up the compass )

And would prefer a way of snaping the lid shut with a life jacket style snap , rather than magnets and buttons.

I get in and out of trucks all day on a airport runway. Not a good place to have buttons and magnets securing things.

On a side note, most of these holsters appear to be built for babies.

A clip to keep something secure? haha i use clothes pins to secure the shirts to my laundry line but they didnt cost 600 bucks and i cant google with them.

Seriously, i wish there was a company making holsters out of kevlar, with locking snaps. And sew in kevlar loops. I would pay 100 bucks for a proper holster.

You don't see cops holstering guns to 10 dollar plastic. Why should i ?

My 3 cents.
[G1 Accessories] bmfc187:
wow, what a H*ll of a first post, bro....i agree. they sould make these things outta something that will actually PROTECT the phone, instead of leaving it hanging helplessly at your side. I own at least four or five different G1 cases/holsters, and i dont use ANY of them, they all suck. The contour one is great except for the ****ty pastic clip. Whoever is designing these holsters/cases/whatever, must have NEVER OWNED a cell phone before in their LIFE, cuz these things ALL SUCK.

MY 3 cents....

I don't have either. But the second one might be the better bet. It looks to be a pretty close clone of the really nice (and really expensive) Seido cases. I like their take on the case design by making them two pieces instead of three. The three is ok, but it's just more parts to break and more parts to take down when you have to get to the battery.
