i did...i've noticed faster access to the card and i can access the card without issue after the device has been in "sleep" mode for long periods of time.
Does this solve a "4GB card problem"?

The patch is for the Artemis.
It will have no effect at all on a Trinity.

HTC nor Orange don't intent to do anything about this by the looks of it. I spoke to both and Orange has no idea and HTC (UK) said that Trinity only supports up to 2GB cards. So I am now using two 2GB sandisc cards and had no probs since.

You installed in on Trinity, right?
Maybe not the best thread for this, but thought it might be of interest.
I have had 3 mini SD cards for my Orange M700 (Trinity/HTC 3600). An O2 branded 1Gb card worked fine. A 2Gb Transcend card was unusable, it would become corrupted after a few hours use. I tried reformatting many times to no avail.
After reading another thread which suggested that Topram cards seemed OK, I bought a 4Gb one which has been fine for about 3 weeks now. It was also the cheapest 4Gb mini SD card I could find on ebay!

[Q] another sd card trashed

i am now on my fourth 8Gig micro card this on is trancend and the other three are sandisk i was using the phone this morning fine i have just gone to use it again less than an hour later and it wants me to format i have checkd the card in the phone settings and it says no sd card installed any ideas as i am getting narked off with paying out for new cards every few months
I am having a similar problem. I am on my second card and I have had random photo's corrupt then disappear. ??? I don't know why. Any Ideas?
I use a Duracell card and have never had any problems, did you format the cards before first use ? ... have you tried to format the cards that are not reading.
I work with sd cards all day loading o/s and apps to industrial tocuhscreens and it's very rare to get a totally trashed card.

i formatted it on the hd2 and it still shows no sd card when i put it in a card reader it shows 36meg
have you tried to format it using the card reader in your pc ?
if that works then you could insert it back into the hd2 and try to use the htc format software again.

using a sd card from hd2?

just pop it in there... but if you've installed apps i think they default to the SD card so go to settings>applications>manage apps and move them to the internal memory before swithcing the cards out so you don't lose your apps

32GB SD card Confirmed working on HD2

Hi guys! First off, I'd like ti thank all the collective on this site for "sharing the love" and helping everyone out!
I just installed WP7 on my HD2 with a 8GB SD card in it. From what I've seen HD2 or 7's only took SD cards up to 16GB so when my mates 32GB card in his PC I thought I'd see if the HD2 would take it??....
Long Story, short... put the 32GB card in the my phone, rebooted and went to - Settings > About > and clicked on "reset your phone" after the reboot VOLA!!! 32GB recognized on my phone!
Card Spec's - SanDisk 2
Shoot me a email if you want more info.
Happy Days!!!!!!

[Q] Memory Issue

So I have a 2gb card in my HD2 right now while running live and according to my sync with my computer, i have .16 gigs left on it.
Isn't there memory onboard the HD2? I know that WP7 uses the memory from the card, but i would at least think it would use some of the memory from the HD2. Do I need to go buy a larger card? I mean I hate to spend $20 on a card if I don't need to. Right now im at the point where I cannot even transfer a photo.

WP7 in it's present incarnation only recognizes and uses 512MB of the the HD2's 1GB so you need a larger SD card if you have one. What happened to your factory SD that came with the HD2...I believe it was a 4GB microSD?
I got this phone for free, so im using an old sd card i had laying around. im gonna probably just go to radio shack while they are having this sale to get the 16g scan disk.
Here is a question. In my sync, it says the capacity on my card is .16g, I had android on there before. Is android still on there? If so, is there a way to remove it? i want to make sure i am getting all the memory out of my card

WP7 installation is supposed to reformat your SD card. In Zune, under view settings or one of the lists of what you can you do with your phone, there is a way to view how much memory you have to play with and also be able to re-allocate memory for specific uses. Check it out.

I cant use zune since i have an Apple iMac. Im using the windows phone 7 connector software off the windows site. It supposedly is the zune version for mac. I just find it hard to believe that ONLY the rom is taking up 2gb of space.
OK, very interesting senerio here. I took out SD card and booted up the phone. The phone actually loaded into windows just fine. Not only that, my wifi was detected. But with the SD card in, no wifi. My SD card must not work

yeah that is correct, your SD card hasnt been recognised at the initial setup, you need to try one of two things, try formatting the card in a digital camera (to be honest even this isnt a great idea) or two, you need a new SD card
SD cards even within the same brands and models may or may not work, some will not install at all, others will install but with issues, wifi, random reboots, lagging, to name a few.
The reason i mention the formating isnt an ideal solution is because, yes it may work, but the underlying issue of the card not originally working is still there, all you have done is moved the bar a bit, the card its self may still generate errors.

Well, I have tried the 3, 2g SD cards I had from getting phones. I also went and bought a $30 SD card and it did not work, so I returned it and got a different $30 SD card, which also did not work.
I am getting pretty fed up.
Does anyone have a spare SD card, that they know works that they want to sell/give me? I don't care the size, i just want to be able to load peoples pictures into the phone..
I just hate wasting my money on cards that don't seem to work

First of all, since you live in Trinity, it would be nice if you knew how to writer proper sentence to get your question across.
Secondly, why you're spending $30 for an SD card is beyond me.
Third, you need to consider the brand and speed of the SD cards you are supposedly purchasing. Are you buying a brand from a reputable manufacturer and are you buying a card with sufficient speed for WP7? I would recommend at a minimum a Class 4 card (Class 6 highly suggested). Also, a 2GB card probably won't buy you anything on WP7 since WP7 on an HD2 uses the SD card a the primary source of working memory. Thus, at a bare minimum a 4GB card is recommended.
And as most of the posting on the forum have indicated, the SD card issue on the HD2 is a hit and miss affair. And I really do hope you have the SD card in the phone when you install WP7, otherwise, no amount of changing will work.

i would highly NOT recomend a class 6 card, there is less chance of that working.
The class ratings define sustained sequential speed, WP7 doesnt need that, it needs high random speeds, the two are not always compatible, go for a class 2 or 4 card and you are more LIKELY to get a card that works, as teh above poster mentioned, it is hit or miss and there is no compatible list, there is apparently a AT&T card branded for WP7, good luck finding a place that sells that outside of an actual shop and expect to pay a premium for it.

Yes I have installed WP7 with the SD card in. First with the 2g card that came with my HD2, then with a Scandisk 4g one, and then with a $30 Kingston 16g one.
Honestly, im going to radioshack tomorrow and going to buy a 4g kingston class 4 one. In the sd card forum it says it works. So we will see.

did you honestly read those threads? there isnt any 100% compatible cards, all these, "confirmed working cards" threads are about as confirmed as the paper its been wrote on. Buy what you can afford, because the only way you are getting a "confirmed" card is if someone has actually tried it and has given it to you. Also its worth noting that getting it installed on the card is only half the battle, if WP7 has the slightest issue with thecard it it can course several different issues.
As i said, its very much luck if you can get it working, it absolutely flys and is super smooth if you can get it perfect
