For movie play back, video recording (the time for it to write the video to the card) and things of the nature yes. Let me give you an example. My wife and I recent traveled for New Years Eve to see old friends. She has my nexus and I copied a couple new movies for her. I set the video sample rate high (like 1500) trying to increase the quality. Well, her phone was choppy and mine wasn't. She has a class 4 card and I had a class 6.

With that said I could just use a class 6 but I backup my SD Card often (like once every 2 days, lost everything once before) and HATE waiting forever for 15+GB of info to transfer so I utilize that aspect too.

Lets not forget if I ever decide to run Apps2SD some day I'd hate for my SD to slow it down.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] STHNS:
Well technically Class 6 would be advisable but Class 10 is overkill and in your device you will let me say this again NEVER get to use it but you can use card reader as I stated before in this and other thread.

Ill look in to this device but my two cents are this card will have alot of data integrity issues dealing with data corruption. Not being biased here but for $99 it does seem good deal. BTW OP this card is giving you 30.9 GB? Kingston 32GB is giving me 29.8GB.

df /dev/mnt/sdcard

File system: FAT32 (0x0c)
Used space: 16.0 KB (16,384 bytes)
Free space: 29.8 GB (32,073,891,840 bytes)

Keep in mind we are limited to SD2.0 as this card is using SDA 3.0 but will be throttled due to device unless you use card reader. Also OP does the card read as 33GB? some are already claiming they having issues as FAT32 supports 32GB, I wonder how they did that lol
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
I keep trying to run the command via adb or terminal that you have in your code up there but it keeps saying it cant find the mount point. Either way, in Settings>SD & phone storage it shows 30.91GB available space after a fresh format. See pic below. As for how big the card is I don't know, everything says 30.91GB.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
As for this part, I know it doesn't support class 10, I like that for fast backup and movie transfers. I did, however, test the SD Card using SD Card Tester on the market. This test was done ON THE PHONE, not with a card reader. There are 2 results below, First is with a Kingston 8GB Class 4 and the second is the Patriot 32GB Class 10. I ran the test several times on each card the results were consistently the same. Take the information for what you will, but what I'm seeing, having a faster card does make a difference.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] STHNS:
lol nice and here I am once again getting away with another OJ style crime :P I hope no one works at Kingston here lol. At least I extracted valuable data which Ill post shortly so other folks can decide which to buy.

So after I got the email I called them directly and spoke to them on the phone and got RMA for full refund lol with no stocking fee and free UPS shipping label.

I call that owned for making me thoroughly testing the card :P

The data below is the actual IOPs from System (USB: Standard-A) to Device (USB: Micro-B) via USB (USB 2.0/SD 2.0). I am not using any type of card reader for this test as we only want the actual data rate of the card itself natively while its mounted in the device.

Looks like your testing resaults are worse than mine on Kingston Class 4 cards.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] STHNS:
lol I am glad I socialed them in to accepting it I had this card for few months and only reason I kept it was due to higher read still was better than SanDisk's read speed which was sustained around 7-8MB/s. Hopefully the plan don't backfire as I already placed order with NewEgg and still have to ship it back to Kingston. So in the end saved $60 or so and got class 10 card :P with 1gb extra space.

Free BUMP:

This card has been verified and tested by HKM (HyperNodeSTHNS). Its class then with min 10mbps write/12mbps read. They selling for $99 so get it if you are looking for mSD 32gb.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] terrypearson:
Where are they selling the card?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ItsMeMasih:
You can't correlate video playback to SD class because you were using 2 different phone models. When I had my HD2, I had no problem running Android off of a class 4 card. This was with the preloaded high quality rip of Transformers that came with the card.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Brooklyn Sm00th:
Hey fellas, I just got my patriot 32g card and after copying my 8 gig over to it last night it has given me write errors and format errors. Is there a specific app or way to format it so I can get back to enjoying my sekc phone? Thanks
[myTouch 4G Accessories] jmwils3:
might try check disk on windows. thats fixed mine when the stock one was giving me errors.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ~~Tito~~:
There is a wintec card on new egg as well for $84, The reviews of it isn't so good because there where monkeyd who handled the card, read them and you will see what I am talking about.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] OptLynx:
Now keep in mind the card I received could simply be just defective so I filed RMA for replacement.

The card would read as READ ONLY (R/O) thus data couldn't be written to it but still could be accessed. Which quickly turned in to card being corrupted (UFS: Unsupported File System) as the card decided to erase the partition itself along with all data inside thus reading it as "Blank SDCard".

So after the card was corrupted the first time I had properly fully formatted the card thoroughly, but when it happened the second time it almost jeopardized my data. So instinctively I went in forensics mode and had to manually extract the data using low level data reconstruction techniques from the damaged corrupted partition. As I never formatted the card I was able to reconstruct the file allocation table thus able to read the raw data from the sectors.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Brooklyn Sm00th:
I ran that twice and did 2 complete formats, just in case. It lasted 4 days this week but randomly my phone got hot then 2 hours later the sd card gave up. Any ideas?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] mrmiddl:
i had a kingston class 4 and it gave me read-only errors constantly. just bought a sandisk 16gb at radio shack for 30 bucks this weekend and its been smooth sailing. too bad that don't carry the 32gb :(
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Brooklyn Sm00th:
specifically i get the "sd card blank or unsupported filesystem" error. im currently googling like any good nerd but i've already tried another sdcard so the phone isn't the issue.... which is very curious to me bc none of you have had this same issue. :( any comments or ideas appreciated.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] jmwils3:
I had an sd card that did that, but it was a knockoff from ebay. My stock card gives my read only errors from time to time, but checkdisk on windows seems to fix that. Also, you might try defragging them? idk if it would help, but maybe.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Brooklyn Sm00th:
I'm going to try one more thing and keep usb debugger on and see if that makes a difference, before emailing patriot about it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ChodTheWacko:
This is not unlike using extremely fast media in digital cameras.

The camera itself does not benefit directly from the fast card,

but it is VERY nice to be able to unload pictures quickly from the card via card reader.

And in the case of the mytouch, it is nice to be able to quickly load music/movies/etc onto the card for viewing later.

Patriot LX 32GB Class 10 benchmarked with SD Tools v1.3

(HTC Desire HD + Android v2.2 rooted)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] PhantomRampage:
I bought one of these like two weeks ago and it was horrible. I couldn't write more that 4-6gb at a time to it, otherwise it would stop copying anything at all and spit out errors left and right. It's a common problem accourding to patriots forums. A lot of peoples' things are randomly erasing after having over 16gb worth of data on it. I dont think it's too trust worthy
[myTouch 4G Accessories] BlackSHELF:
Send it back for RMA and get another one. If you check this thread you can see my benchmarks and other info regarding it. I been using this for 2+ months now with no issue, you could have just simply got bad card also post the link to the official Patriot thread where this happened make sure its LX not Signature, its two different cards.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] XA-R01:
Hmm... before I move my data from the old card to my new Patriot LX 32GB, I scanned it for bad sectors using Flash Memory Toolkit 2.0 RW-Error Scans. No bad sectors.

I also move 6GB data to it without problem. Dunno about the "16GB barrier" issue though. I'll fill up the card with 20GB junk files to test this issue. Hopefully the "16GB barrier" issue only happens to spesific device (ie: Droid X) or just a case of bad card.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] BlackSHELF:
Trust me I was one of the first people to have this SDCard and I have thoroughly tested and posted benchmark on sites about this card, even posted in this very thread. Most problem reported was mostly Droid X related as you know. But people who had issue with slow speed and data corruption was due to inferior card which gave out which with quick RMA you can get another one. Also the post above my one the guy claimed in Patriot forum there are alot of people reporting this which is false as there is NO post related to LX as he confused it with Signature which is not same cards.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] XA-R01:
By the way, I got very bad performance for random write. In crystal disk mark, the random writes is very low, under 2MB/sec. you have the same result?

Where is your post with the LX test result? I search in you profile but can't find it... :p

[myTouch 4G Accessories] XA-R01:
I'll try to fill up my 32GB card tonight. Currently, I only put 8GB data on it.

I will test 2 thing, copying over 6GB data at once, and try to pass the 16GB barrier.

Hope nothing won't happen.

PS: SD card can get corrupted/missing data if you unplug the HTC device without "safe remove" on Windows and "turn off disk drive" on Android. I did that before and lost 8GB data on my bundled-in Samsung class 2 card. Thank god after I plug and unplug the card from Desire HD slot (while device still ON) several times, my device can read the data on the card again. So don't get cocky and format your card just because suddenly your device can't read the data on it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] BlackSHELF:
I posted on newegg and various other sites including in many Patriot 32GB threads in XDA.

Thanks for posting that Phantom that problem is DX related. As I have said before.

@ XA-R01

Go download H2TestW and do R+W+V test on it and then format it thoroughly. BTW there is no 16GB barrier this is just BS started by DX users as they are virtually prone to issues with almost every SDCard if you look around.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
Just a chime in on this card after a couple months of use. Mine started just going blank while in my phone. Phone would want to format it. Plugging it into my PC would reviel that it was in fact blank (well the allocation table anyways, used data recovery tool to recover my data). After 2 times I gave it one more shot and now it would just mount as READ ONLY. I sent it in for RMA. We'll see if they replace it and if so how the new one works.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] mulletcutter:
Just haopened to me twice in two days. Been using it fine fir awhile with no problem on cm7, then as soon as i flashed a sense rom it wouldnt mount my sd and i lost all my data. Guess ill have to contact newegg, or would i contact patroit? Class 10 16gb
[myTouch 4G Accessories] PhantomRampage:
Tried to tell you guys
[myTouch 4G Accessories] petermg:
WTH?! This is also happening with 16GB cards??? Was hoping to upgrade my 8gb card to st least a16....but after seeing that post I may hold off.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ~~Tito~~:
The WINTEC(going off of memory with the name) one seems more reliable. . .
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
UPDATE: Just recieved my new one from RMA. They actually sent me a brand new in the package card instead of a "fixed" card. Plugging it into my computer and formatting gives me 29.8Gb of usable space. My last card had 30.9Gb (1.1Gb of difference) so maybe there was a bad batch. Will report back in a couple weeks of performance if there are issues.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] mulletcutter:
I have yet to send mine out, got the conformation number and everything...haha i guess ill do it now. But yes i hope there was a bad batch
[myTouch 4G Accessories] XA-R01:
My Patriot LX 32GB that I bought on Feb 26 still running without problems.

I had copied 6.5GB data at once (phone as disk drive) without error.

And the total data on my card already surpassed 16GB, also without error.

Hopefully, this will last for a long time :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
Well, almost a month of everything working perfectly until 2 days ago. When trying to access a video I took to show a friend the card went read-only. Plugged it into my computer and a bunch of stuff was missing (used data recovery to recover pictures/vids). I don't know if the issue is this phone specifically, the card or the OS. I'm running Iced 1.1.6. I'm thinking of trying royalmint or ginger and see if it happens but not really sure its a OS issue.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
So contacted Patriot, they are just RMAing it again. I think they will just keep doing that until the warranty runs out. Who knows. I do think, however, it's only a problem if you put more than 16GB of data on the card. I'm going to avoid putting my movies and music on the next one and see what happens. Will update yet again.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] mulletcutter:
I just got mine back, its a brand new one. Working just fine now, knock on wood....no errors and transfers are fine
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
Mine was good for almost a month then, tried to pull up a video I recorded in vegas to show a friend and it hung for a minute then BAM, "SDCard mounted as Read-Only".
[myTouch 4G Accessories] XA-R01:
Perhaps the errors and corruptions can be fixed. I found this:

[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
Thanks, what ROM/Android version are you running on your DHD or is it stock?

I'm currently formatting via the instructions in the provided link, we'll see how it works out.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] TmpUsr:
Now I am sorry folks that some of you are still having problems with this card. But I was like setzer715 who ordered this soon as it was available at Newegg. As I reported here the first card I received had issues which is clear if you read this thread fully which is what your experiencing. But I have been using the replacement card as I RMAed it for over 4+ months without single issue. I do believe you all just got bad batch as I myself got one so hopefully its all working for you folks.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
So after trying the method posted by XA-R01 I haven't experienced any issues thus far. I will report back in a couple of weeks to let you know if the above method of formatting does fix the issue.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] UsrBkp:
Well setzer715 I am glad you got it working using no LBA mode. Hopefully you and others who got it working using this method does not once again get hit by the same issues.

For me I have been using it normally and didn't run across that issue as I stated since beginning of the thread after I got one of those bad batch. For now ill still keep using it and see if after 16GB+ usage if I get the errors stated by fews. As I originally tested it by placing 16GB+ many time and couldn't replicate the issue. But ill post back if I ever run in to the old issues.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] mulletcutter:

Latest benchmark result (SD Tools v1.8) of Patriot LX 32GB Class 10:

PS: i bought this card on February 2011, still working perfect.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] PermROOT:
XA-R01 do "NOT" trust that benchmark, even the folks who made it says it. As without the sdcard buffer hack I still score in 70-100mb/s+
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
So, I loaded the card up. Only have between 5-7Gb free space (depending on how many backups I currently have, they take a lot of space) and its been a little more than a week with smooth sailing. All is well, for now. Been making daily backups to my pc just incase though!

I think the problem is when you go past the first 16Bb as this card actually has 2 chips in it. At least that is what I took from the ad for the chip when it said "16Gb x 2". IDK, so far so go with no LBA!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] setzer715:
Ok, another update, hopefully last one. Been working great after the latest format. No issues. Hopefully this stays!

[myTouch 4G Accessories] nzube14:
Thanks AggNA. Which one do you own? From what I'm reading, I should go with the Patriot 16GB/32GB Class 10 rather than the Lexar 32GB Class 10. Is it right to think so? And looking at the prices, the Patriot is highly enticing.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] AggNA:
I own the 32GB C10 LX and had it since the day it came out on Newegg. The first mSD I got had the same issue described in this thread. So I RMA it and got another one and never had issue as I do think its defect batch lot as it never happened again. Been using it none stop since forever if you follow the thread and see some of the users its all me.

I wish I would have bought that one before I bought this aluminum one as the aluminum one will dislodge once in a while and if you're not careful it will smack your screen and make you wince. But it definitely makes people do a double take when you're sitting in a Starbucks with this one. :D

Brand new G Tab owner. Just charged and started up last night. I received the notification of the 3389 release immediately and went ahead and let the update download and installed.

I'm just checking things out at this point keeping her stock for a while. I have a lot to learn about Android in general so I'm in no hurry to begin mods.

In just following the suggested links I ran into a problem with AppStoreHQ. There are two apps there, can't seem to find them on any of the other 'approved' app stores, Google TV Remote and the Nook reader from B&N.

I cannot install either of them, or any app for that matter, from AppStoreHQ. Anybody else having this problem.

I called Tech Support, thought it would be a good first test. I was surprised to get a real person in under 2 minutes. He was helpful, said he would try it on their G Tabs, and put me on hold. He came back in a couple of minutes and said they are having the same problem. He would report it to the software team and there should be a fix in 24 hours.

He also told there will be a general update for the G Tab in the next week.

Any help would be appreciated, even another way to get the apps I'm looking for.
