Help HTC Desire and new SDHC card problem

Garner

Lurker
Hi :)

I've recently got a new 32GB SDHC Sandisk card for my HTC Desire, and some of the movies/tv shows i put on the phone's memory card will not play, but some will :(

There was no issue with the Samsung 4GB SDHC card that came with the phone, however, the new one seems to have the problems. If i use it as generic file storage card, using an adapter, its fine and works in cameras too, but just not properly in my HTC.

This is the card that is causing the problem:

Any help and problem solving would be greatly appeciated :)
Many thanks in advance!
 
Are you sure it is a "real" Sandisk card?
Is it a Class 2 card? That is slow and can be an issue for videos.
Try to run SD Tools on it to see the card speed.
 
I've got to say, it doesn't look right to me.
The label on the adapter is on pissed, and both the Sandisk and Micro SD logos look wrong.
Here's a picture of a 32GB Class 4 card (that this is purporting to be) from the Sandisk website:

@SiHa,
Copy the content of SD card to PC, then format it, then run the tool posted by SUroot.
See if that reports any issues.

Also you should verify the write speed.

Thanks, but I'm not the OP, I was just chipping my two penn'orth - my suspicion that it's a ringer. I also have used the H2test.exe that Dan suggested. Would've recommended it myself but he beat me to it.:mad:

One note on veryfying the write speed as well. I tested my class 6 card, using the cheap novatech 89-in-one card reader in a 3 1/2" bay and the results were very poor. I only got proper class6 performance when using a USB-to-MicroSD adapter.
Although, I suspect the card won't get far past 1GB anyway so the write speed is pretty academic I suppose.
 
I've been meaning to do that since I got my Dropbox account, just never quite got round to it yet.


I share mine with rastaman, InfernalByte and Hadron. We have a share which we all build up, then we copy what we want to our own public spaces.

PM me with your (drop box registered..) e-mail address if you want in.

Thanks, but I've probably not got much of use to bring to the party at the moment. Especially, as I'm yet to root, and I suspect most of your stuff is rooting / modding related.
