Bought a SDSDQM-032G-B35 from BUY.com. The card was actually labeled as class 4. But this card is causing so many problems in my HD7: slower loading, repeated rebooting, wifi problems, sim problems, somtimes not detected. Tried this 32 GB and the original 16 GB several times. I'm certain the SDSDQM-032G-B35 is causing all the trouble.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
Return it for a new one. That card must come in sealed packaging and the model number is written on the back below and above the barcode, on the front of the packaging should be a Tiesto "wake up your phone" music download promotion valid till the 2/28/2011. The card must have a 2 in a circle, the SanDisk logo, the text 32GB and the microSDHC logo on it. Make sure you've got a genuine card, this card model definitely works.

Hi,

will there be a tutorial for the HTC 7 PRO sometime? Really looking forward to it :) as 8G turns out not to be so much :(
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
Well, if you volunteer to send me or the author of this thread one of those phones, I'm fairly sure that could be arranged somehow. I can also offer you to upgrade the storage in any HTC made Windows Phone for EUR 125 + shipping (excluding VAT/customs tax). :)
[HD7 General] loomx:
That describes the one I ordered exactly but mine is a SDSDQM-032G-E11M

I havent tried it yet, but I guess I will when I get my HD7 back from repair :( Camera doesnt work any more.
[HD7 General] sirandrew:
Is there a way to easily replace any downloaded Marketplace Apps once the microSD card has been changed out and the phone wiped?

I am thinking about doing this, however, there would be some time invested in redownloading everything that I would like to avoid if at all possible.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
Yes there is, don't use your phone but the Zune software to download apps. Whenever you add the Live ID used for downloading as the primary Windows Live account on your phone it'll download all the apps you purchased via the Zune software. Unfortunately it also does this if you uninstalled them from your phone.
[HD7 General] JackalJackalJackal:
Can I use the Kingston microSDHC 16GB Class 10 ? Thank you. :)
[HD7 General] webdev511:
I wouldn't try anything faster than a class 4.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
You can try it, but I wouldn't recommend it. Kingston rebrands Sandisk, Toshiba and Samsung flash and there may be issues with non-Sandisk flash. The best approach is to go with the three Sandisk cards I mentioned, they definitely work. Just make sure the card you buy is genuine.
[HD7 General] sirandrew:
Have to take the good with the bad, eh? Thank you.
[HD7 General] Z80-Man:
SD Android (Desire HD based) build on 32 GB class 2 Sandisk : very fast to launch (hardly more than a couple of minutes), lightning fast to run.

No formatting prior to install Android on the SD card was necessary, I just threw the files on the card among my WM files, and here we go ! ;)

Nothing more to say than "perfect". :cool: Who needs half-working class 4 or - pretending - faster ? :p
[HD7 General] onlysafonne:
I took this phone apart just so i could have another 16gb sd card for my EVO,ran across this thread,Is there a way to use the 16gb card in the HD7,It seeems to have a special boot partioton and when i mount it with my EVO or with a SD card reader,windows does not read it.

Thanks for any tools or hints.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
The secure digital specification allows for passkey protection of storage cards. Windows Phone locks your card with a random 128bit key toprevent people who disassemble your phone or remove the card from reading your data. Most USB based card readers do not support that function. You need to use a PCI based SDA storage adapter with the right software and driver or a phone that supports it to format (with secure delete operation) the card.

Nokia's Symbian phones do support this. Go to a cellphone store and ask if you can use one of these devices for a few seconds. You can format your card by inserting it into the Symbian device, selecting Cancel on the password prompt, going into Tools -> Phone Tools -> File Manager. Here select Storage Card, open the Options menu and select Format. This will take a few seconds, when it's done go into the Options menu again, select Eject and remove your SD card from the device when prompted. You SD card will now be formatted with FAT32 and with the passkey protection removed so that you can use it in any SDHC compatible card reader.
[HD7 General] loomx:
Well my HD7 is off for repair, so I put WP7 on my HD2 and used this 32GB sd card, its running perfect, apps also open faster than my bro in laws HD7, so I will be using this SD card in my HD7!
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
I would not recommend using that card in an HD7, the HD2 is a different phone and if you run modified software on it, chances are it accesses the SD card differently. Also, since the HD2 WP7 mod is based on the development emulator files, which already contain the "No Donuts" software update, applications open faster because of software tweaks and you just don't notice that the SD card is slower than the one that came with the HD7. You may run into problems with video playback and video recording or tombstoning (closing of applications), though, because the card is too slow.
[HD7 General] loomx:
As far as I am aware you cant get a NoDo rom on the HD2, my HD2 is running the XBmod rom, with OS version 7.07004, firmware rev: 2250.09.07401

It also records 720p video fine.

Lexar 32GB Class 10 didn't work on WP7 HTC HD7

I thought I let you all know the Lexar 32GB class 10 card didn't work for me.

My HD7 came with 16 GB. It recognized 32GB once I installed it but I noticed lot of performance issues like slow response to touch button et al. I thought of rebooting it and that was it. Since then it would keep rebooting the phone. I could get back to the OS if I did a hard reset through the bootloader menu and go through the OS initial set up. But again, if I reboot the phone, it would start reseting at the HTC banner loading. So, no go with this fast sd card :mad:
[HD7 General] MarkAtHome:
Hi jatman -- I think that many folks are not aware that Class 10 utilizes a high-speed bus, while a lower speed class does not. I do not know if our phones have this ability. Take a look here:

http://www.sdcard.org/developers/tech/speed_class/
[HD7 General] jatman:
I hope MS updates the SD drivers in the OS to support high speed. I thought I had a good replacement for my 30GB Zune finally but the euphoria didn't last too long.

I could format the SD card using a Nokia Express Music phone..... the engineer in me is telling me to try this card again, not with too much hope though.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
There's a list of compatible cards in post #43.

Not gonna happen. Windows Phone 7 was designed to be used with "expensive" NAND flash and the "cheap" SD cards were only enabled for use because manufacturers asked for it so that they could save money. Given that the faster cards are equally or even more expensive than NAND flash and perform worse at random read/write operations they have no reason to support that.
[HD7 General] loomx:
Right, tested it in my HD7, it works perfect and its really fast! so the E11M is fine to use too.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
You're going to have issues like random reeboots, stuttering video, stuttering high-bitrate music and slow or no longer running applications (starts and then quits when loading settings) after a day or two, or after you filled your storage space once.

Upgrade HTC 7 Pro

I have just made an upgrade of my HTC 7 Pro of 32GB.The pictures and manual will be provided after the new section for HTC 7 PRO is opened.
[HD7 General] loomx:
Nearly all of it is full with music, and everything is running fine. If anything is better than it has been with the original card.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
I tested that card and it does not conform to the speed requirements, if your phone really performs better, then that's probably because you received a unit with a bad card.
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
I have a SanDisk 32gb class 2 from Verizon sdsdqr-32768-v11m, can that be used?
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
No, this card model number is not even on the list of SanDisk original manufactured cards. It is likely a Chinese fake or a product from running manufacturing off the books at the fabrication plant (which creates insecure and many flawed cards). Return it and ask for a genuine card.

You need either the SDSDQM-032G-B35 or the SDSDQ-032G-J35A. Those cards definitely work.

HD7 Scandisk 32GB MicroSDHC card working great

I've just added my 32GB ScanDisk MicroSDHC card to my HD7 and it's working fine, no lag at all.

I will be adding my apps and data onto the phone it the next couple hours and will see if it will work the same after I add more than 16GB of data.

Will report back.

here is a link to the card I purchased from Amazon.com.

(edit. I was unable to post outside links).

look for this on amazon.com "SanDisk 32GB microSDHC Memory Card (Bulk Package)",

I payed $64.23
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
thanks. I got the card directly from Verizon, but it's almost a year old.

Edit Double Post
[HD7 General] TheCow5:
I have good news and bad news.

The Good

After installing all my apps, vidoes and movies (that took up 19GB on the card) I played my games and notice no problem while playing, I did hover have problems installing some, (Vizati and some other games kept giving me a licens error), but after removing the battery and placing it back in they installed fine

The apps all worked find, not lag and quite smood, I also played some music and left it playing for about 45 Minuts and it was fine and verry smood.

Now the BAD!!

I first played some short videos and some worked fine but others kept stopping about two minuts into it, I then tried playing full lentgh movies and each time I tried playing them it kept saying "playback error",

so while it had that error on the screen I pulled the battery out placed it back in and tried to power it back on and when it came on it hung at the HTC screen.

I tried holding the power and volume keys to restore it but it will give me the option to restore but eacht time it trys to restore it it will reboot and hangs at the HTC screen.

I placed the 16GB card that it came with back in, restarted the phone and it boots up fine.

Here are some info on the card in the phone and the one I got from Amazon.com

On the 16GB that came in the Phone

ScanDisk 16GB Class (4) MicroSDHC

1025-7060-33-DWH

BL Made In China.

On the 32GB card I purchase from Amazon.com "SanDisk 32GB microSDHC Memory Card (Bulk Package)",

ScanDisk 32GB Class (2) MicroSDHC

1022-1043-85-D2G

Made in China

Conclusion

I believe the card would work for anyone who does not want to play videos.

I also believe that I some how currupted the card.

Now to find someone with a Nokia phone to reformat the card, lets hope the

T-Mobile store will let me use there demo to do that.
[HD7 General] TheCow5:
This is a bit insulting.

I had a 2GB ScanDisk MicroSDHC card laying about and decide to try it.

its freaking working flawlessly. I've place full lenght movies and all my apps and not one problem, videos play without a problem and all my apps install without any of the problems I had with the 32GB card.

it may be working that well because its only a 2GB card.

I will be going to the T-Movile store and try to format the care and try it again in the HD7.

​
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
Formatting the card will not improve its performance or fix any defects. You should return it and ask for a new one in genuine SanDisk packaging. You should also ask for one of the models I named, specifically.
[HD7 General] TheCow5:
thanks for the advice.

this one came in a genuine SanDisk packaging.

I will be followint your advice as soon as I give it another try, I simply must try once more.

where can you go to ask specificity for those that you posted. I've search the net for those movel numbers but can't find them.

thanks again.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
Amazon has them, type the model number in the search bar and buy the one it finds.
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
please report back after installing on the hd7, mine came in original package and is class 2... I hate to see it laying around lol.
[HD7 General] TheCow5:
I am now out of spirit for the day.

I went to six T-Mobile stores and five AT&T stores, not one has anyone who works there that knows anything (My god they are dumb, did they all take a dumb class)

they don't know what a Symbian OS is or that the HD7 memory can be upgraded.

not one of them had a nokia phone. I found my self telling them things. WOW!

does anyone have a Nokia phone with Symbian OS, I will send this card to you and have you formate it for me and you can send it back. thanks

I will order the correct card tomorrow.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
They're supposed to have the Nokia 5230 Nuron in stock and at least one display model... I have my doubts they're selling that well since most carrier ads focus on on "free" feature phones or Blackberry and Windows smartphones.

I can offer you to format your card for free (just like upgrading your phone storage and/or software, upgrades are not free), if you're willing to send it to Germany and pay for return shipping.

Return shipping for any standard envelope shipment with 5mm or less thickness and up to 20 grams is EUR 0.75 (uninsured, without tracking and proof of shipment), EUR 2.80 (uninsured, with tracking and proof of shipment) or EUR 4.30 (insured for up to EUR 100, with tracking and proof of shipment), priority mail is EUR 3.45 extra and cannot be combined with proof of shipment (e.g. you have to sign for it and are guaranteed it gets to you and only you) but includes tracking.

This is for any envelope shipment up to 20 grams (you could cheat with helium filled bubble wrap... j/k) so you could send multiple cards (e.g. your old one from your HTC Windows Phone 7). If you send anything (my address is publicly available), please tell me about it in advance and negotiate procedure and return methods.
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
i decided to throw caution in the wind and try it anyways....been watching netflix with no lag....all my stuff synced with zune....i'll keep testing and report back...but thanks so much op, i wish i could hit your thanks button a million times :)!
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
i think this number should be added to the list of good cards.....i bought this from verizon in august 2010, it's been 3 days and no issues what-so-ever :).
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
This card is not on the model number list of official SanDisk cards. If it works, good for you. I do not know which type of SD card Verizon repackaged and rebranded, nor is there a rule about which exact model type they sell. If it does indeed keep working and provides sufficient speeds for video recording and the random access behaviour of applications running in the background, you might just have gotten lucky with your card.
[HD7 General] pinoypayter:
Do you guys think:

goo(DOT)gl/pULRt

would work, the item model number is SDSDQM032GB35A.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
Yes, this card works. See here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10354934&postcount=43
[HD7 General] djidji777:
I found on ebay Sandisk MicroSD Class 2 card, model SDSDQ-032G-E11M, what do you think, would this card work in HD7?
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
No, this card will not work as it does only have Class 2 performance. You need a card with Class 4 performance. You should use one of the listed cards to be on the safe side, many Class 4 SanDisk cards aren't genuine SanDisk cards, especially if they ship from China or Hong Kong, because the real Class 4 cards are still rather rare. And only a few of the newer Class 2 cards may be actual Class 4 cards, like the SDSDQM-032G-B35(A) (the A only means it comes with a transflash adapter).
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
i don't want you to take this the wrong way, as we are here to help each other :)....but are you a sandisk employee? the op said oem sandisk and class 2, you're saying no...i bought a oem class 2 from verizon and it works. maybe you might be wrong :) (and again, not trying to start a flamewar).
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
No, I am not a SanDisk employee. But you need a genuine OEM class 4, retail class 4 or a generic class card with class 4 performance. As there is no way to tell which type of card Verizon sold to you, since they likely buy them in bulk and repackage them with their own packaging. If they sold you a class 2 card it likely performs like a class 2 card (2MB/s sustained write speed with random memory alignment blocks (usually 512KB)) and there is no telling about the random (4KB blocks) write speed. This means, if this card works fine for you, because you've got a card from a certain well performing OEM shipment, it may not work as well for others. Also, the common supplier for any type of bulk SanDisk cards is a resale unit in Shenzhen, China, which occasionally gets their hands on malfuncioning, offbook manufactured or even fake cards.

This is a very good read on the subject: http://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/?p=918
[HD7 General] pinoypayter:
WOW! thank you very much for the quick reply and I'm going to the bank right now to put money in my debitcard to buy this =]
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
it works for me is what i'm saying, it should be added :). this is oem and it works, period. it didn't come in bulk :).
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
Yes, it works for you, but since this is a rebranded resale card, just like Kingston cards are, it does not adhere to manufacturing specifications and functionality in the manner required is not guaranteed by every card. The card model number you mentioned is not on the list of official SanDisk retail cards, or OEM cards. You can download those lists on the regional SanDisk websites for Europe, Japan, China/Taiwan, Korea, and the US. You can also easily see that when you google that model number that this thread is the only result that comes up.

There's also some other thread somewhere on this forum, for compatible cards that work with the Samsung Focus (since guaranteed compatible ones are made by Samsung themselves and those aren't available on the retail channel), and all the cards listed as functioning may likely work in the HTC phones, too, some don't and most do exhibit poor performance. The cards I listed are either cards that HTC uses themselves (even if they order the OEM variety, the physical cards are the same) or cards that work according to the storage speed requirements and are of similar make (not model) than the original parts.
[HD7 General] loomx:
Running that in my HD7, only have 400meg of space left, working perfect, playing games and music at the same time, filming in 720p. No problems. Had it in there for over a week now.
[HD7 General] enyaj:
I bought a 32gb Sandisk Calss 4 model SDSDQM-032G-B35N. It is working although it sometimes lags and sometimes apps don't open. I'll try to use it for a month.
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
You need the variety sold in the asian markets or the SDSDQM-032G-B35(A), the card you have is controller optimized for sequential writes and is too slow on small block random reads and writes. This is why you experience slow performance and excessive load times.
[HD7 General] enyaj:
Sir, if you have the time, I would love to know what this means. Sorry I'm just a regular guy but I'm interested on knowing. I saw a 32gb micro sd with the same model number but with calss 2. Would that work or would that be the same?
[HD7 General] dorianmuthig:
It means the controller software on the memory card is optimized in such a way to access large blocks of memory simultaneously. Those blocks are usually 512KB or up to 4MB in size, depending on the card. Unfortunately, if the blocks are large, this means that random access for several small 4KB blocks within the same larger block requires the "optimized" controller to access those large blocks several times in a row in their entirety. Those cards are great for camera use where large photos need to be saved quickly, not so great for an operating system with 4KB file system allocation blocks.

You can use any of the cards listed in Post #43 (page 5) of this thread without experiencing any problems. Since you are in the Asia Pacific region, getting the SDSDQ-032G-J35(A) shouldn't be much of a problem through local channels. In Europe and the US, it is rather hard to get them, which is why I tested several other cards until I found one that works at similar (or better) performance levels that I could use in my phone. This was the SDSDQM-032G-B35(A). The A in parenthesis just means that the card comes with a bundled microSD transflash adapter for use in normal size SD card devices.
[HD7 General] enyaj:
This is very hard to find. I went through the biggest cell phone, camera, gadget shop the entire day yesterday and there were very few 32gb's on sale and unfortunately all of them had the same model number. Is this something that the OS controls? Or is this a hardware thing?

Skin Case

Search Ebay for BLACK TRANSPARENT JELLY CASE SKIN SHELL FOR NOKIA E71

Although it says Jelly the case is actually TPU, a flexible plastic eg you can mark it with your nail but it will fade after a few minutes.

Camera hole.

Charger hole.

Headphone hole (slightly tight)

No top button (lock) hole or volume button hole but easily pressed through case.

Can press the three hard buttons through the case easily. This provides better protection for when you drop the device.

Then combine with any i900 samsung screen protector (There are ZTE Blade custom ones available also).
