http://androidforums.com – Hi everyone, I've had my Galaxy Ace (Model:GT-S5830, Android Version:2.3.3) for a few weeks and after filling up the 2GB memory card that came with it decided to upgrade to a 16GB card. I copied the files of the 2GB card onto my PC, unmounted it, installed the new 16GB card and copied my original files plus some new ones onto the 16GB card. No problems reported during the copy process but when I unmounted the card and checked in My Files most of my new files had ended up in the LOST.DIR directory with numbers for names. It seems as if the Ace still thinks the card is a 2 GB card and th (General)

I recently owned a HTC Desire with a 16GB MicroSD installed. After I bought my Galaxy S3 I didn't had another 16GB MicroSD card so I decided to keep it as a backup and use a 8GB MicroSD. After few weeks of usage I decided to put the 16GB card to use. I shut down my S3, popped out the 8GB card, copied it's contents to my WindowsPC, formatted the 16GB card to fat32 and copied the contents over.

Support Memory Card files 35 weeks 2 days ago

Originally I had an Xperia X10(Android). It died but I kept the 16gb memory card and put it in the Nokia E5(Symbian) my provider used as a replacement.

I now have a Galaxy Note.

I've been using My Phone Explorer to transfer files from phone to computer. I've recently noticed that my memory card has 2 main folders: Memory Card and External Storage.

Now...

Just moved from a 8 GB to a 32GB card. And cannot use it...

First I unmounted the old SD card on the phone, and put in the new, unformatted 32GB. I then choose to format it in the phone. Its a Galaxy S GT-9003i with firmware I9003XXKPN v2.3.5

It formated fine. Then I unmounted the new card, plonked in the old card and connected the phone in USB mode to the Macbook.

When copying large (or even files of a few KB) to an sd card from ubuntu 10.10, the files appear to be there but when i access the card from another device, the files are either missing or 0 bytes in size.

I suspect that the problem is that it takes time for the files to copy to the card and I'm taking it out too soon but there is no progress bar - im just doing it from cmd line.

Hi,

I've recently replaced my 2GB SD card in my P350 with a 16GB card, so that I can store more music on my phone.

The card seems to be working fine - I can mount, unmount the SC card as normal, and add music files to it,etc., but when I go over 2Gb in used capacity, ALL additional mp3 files seem to get corrupted; they are added to the unknown artists group and refuse to play.

Hi,

I have bough the wife a samsung Galaxy Tab 2 and got her a 16gb sd card to put her videos on. I can add up to about 2gb worth of vidoes fine but after that the tablet sees the videos but is unable to play them.

I can confirm that the videos play fine as I deleted all from the card and added again in a different order.
