I am new to blackberry and I have a curve 8320 and would like to buy a larger capacity card. I have a one gig micro sd and would like a 8 gig. I just need to know if my phone will accept that size card. Thank you in advance for your help.

Downloaded ringtones to microSD card but can't figure out how to use them

I downloaded a bunch of ringtones and I can find them if I go to "Files/ringtones" on my microSD card, but when I try to use one in Settings/sounds/phone ringtone they are not there. I can't figure out how to use them. Can anyone help?? Thanks!

When I go to Music app, the ringtones aren't in the list of artists/songs. They are stored in the ringtones folder so I don't think they would show up in the Music app.

Lumia 1520/AT&T: What is the best MicroSD card opt...

Hello,
I am writing to the Nokia forums because I have a doubt on which 64gb MicroSD card I should buy for my Nokia Lumia 1520 (AT&T model). I want to use this card for photos and video recording at 1080p up to 30FPS.
Doing some research, I found that for best results I need a Class 10 MicroSDXC card if I don't want the video to skip during the recording if writing the video directly to the card as I record. Apparently I also have to look for the UHS-1 designation aside from Class 10.
Therefore, I went shopping around in Amazon.com and I have narrowed down my choices to the following three cards.
Sandisk 64GB Class 10 UHS-1
Transcend 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1
Sony 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1
Out of the three choices which one provides the better option? I am leaning towards the Transcend MicroSD card, but would like to get a feedback from Lumia 1520 owners.

Nokia Lumia 1520 | Windows Phone 8.1 "Lumia Cyan"

The sandisk is the one I use with no issues whatsoever

Is it possible to install an app obtained via a MicroSD card or Bluetooth?

Suppose I'm in an area where there is very little Wi-fi or other internet access (e.g. rural Papua New Guinea).
Or, an area where the internet is strictly controlled or monitored. So the Marketplace is not an option.
People around me are using their cheap cell phones to share photos via bluetooth, and music and videos via SD cards.
Question: can I also distribute an app via MicroSD card or Bluetooth?
I've tried this with some Java phones and found that installing an app from either of those sources is disallowed.
What about on FirefoxOS?
The Firefox OS web site says you can update the OS from an SD card.
One of the FAQ's at http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZTE-OPEN-C-3G-Unlocked-Firefox-Smartphone-Cell-Phone-Dual-Core-GPS-WiFi-AT-T-/291243074570?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item43cf70a40a suggests that you cannot install an app from an SD card, at least on a ZTE Open C.
But I'd like to get more of a horse's-mouth answer, if possible.
Is this something that Firefox OS leaves up to the discretion of each phone manufacturer?
Or is it considered such a security risk that Firefox OS will not allow it on any phone?
Thanks,
Lars

Hi, huttarl!
Beyond the Firefox Marketplace, your options for distributing apps are unfortunately rather limited.
To my knowledge, Firefox OS does not support any Bluetooth/microSD card app installation. However, you can install an app to a phone by connecting the phone to a computer via USB cable. This is often used by developers but may suit your needs: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Using_the_App_Manager See this article on the Mozilla Developer Network].
I hope that helps! Please feel free to post back with more questions.

New BB Z30 Freezing, Docs are unable to Open, microSD card automatically formatted after restart, unable to open Some Pictures, Long time for Charging

I purchased a new BlackBerry Z30 recently from http://store.shopblackberry.com/store/bbrryus/en_US/pd/productID.298806900/categoryID.66826600/paren... and my Phone Model number is STL 100-5. I also purchased a Z30 Leather flip case manufactured by BlackBerry. I am using my BlackBerry Z30 along with the Z30 Leather flip case.
1) Within the first 2 weeks of receiving and using the new BB Z30 device, I noticed a problem of screen not responding some times. My phone has been freezed at the lock screen. My phone is not responding to any key except for the power button. So, I had an option of only restart/Turn Off my BlackBerry Z30 device. All the time whenever I had this problem, I have to restart my device in order to make it work properly again. I complained about this issue with BlackBerry Technical Support. They assisted me to reset the device to factory settings by taking a full backup. After reset also, I still had the same issue.
2) I am using Sandisk Extreme microSD card of 32GB with my BB Z30 device. Some times due to the restart option, all the data which I had on my microSD card is being erased and is filled with an unknown files.
3) I'm also unable to open some pictures which I have taken using BlackBerry Z30. As I observed, most of the pictures which I taken using Blackberry Z30 are unable to be open/view them after a few days. Still, I am able to observe the properties of those pictures. They are in JPEG format only.
4)Also If I create a Word Document on BlackBerry Z30 using Docs to Go Application and saved it. After closing that particular document and If I try to open it, the document file is not opening and projecting me an error of "This is not a valid .Doc file", but while I check the properties of that particular document it is in .doc format. I tried to transfer the file to my laptop using bluetooth. After a few seconds (approx 2-3 seconds) automatically the transferring is cancelled by the BlackBerry Z30 device. However, I tried to transfer the file within that short time using Bluetooth. While I tried to open it on my laptop using Microsoft Office 2013, the file is displaying with a squares of upto 4 pages while I had a content in it of 3 lines only. While I opened my file using Microsoft Office 2013, there is only squares available in that document.
5) My new BlackBerry Z30 is taking a long time of approximately 6-7 hours to charge the device from 10% to 100%
I request someone to help me with this issues. I would like to thank everyone who can help me with these issues in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

On 7th of Jan 2015 I made my device to factory reset. Also I removed microSD card from my device. As I observed for these 3 days, one time while I received a missed call, I tried to have a look at it. I observed that my screen has been freeze at the receiving call position and its not responding. I tried to close and reopened the display of my device with a flip case which I'm currently using for my device. At this time, after 3-4 swipes to unlock the device, again its back into working condition.
About Documents, I'm able to create, save and open the documents without any issues till now.
About Pictures, they are also working fine without any issues.
I also observed the charging time as approximately 3 hours for charging the device from 14% to 100%.

Curve 8310 fails to read microSD card

Greetings,
I bought a Blackberry Curve 8310 last summer and it worked fine until November of last year when the phone failed to read my Micro SD media card. Thinking the media card was the problem, I have bought a new media card a few months ago to try fixing the problem. The problem still persists and I need help getting this fixed.
I currently use Blackberry 4.5 Device OS. Under Options in the phone's menu:
Media card support: on
Encryption mode: none
Mass storage mode support: on
Auto enable MSM when connected: Yes
Total space: 1.8 GB
Free Space: 1.4 GB.
This means the phone knows I have a media card but just cannot read it. For pictures, only the pictures I saved onto the microSD card using my computer can be seen, but pictures I took using the phone doesn't show up. When taking pictures, the camera indicates "File system out of resources". For music, all the music is visible, but when trying to play the songs, it doesn't do anything.
I have tried everything from turning off/on the phone, removing the battery to do a hard reset, not downloading any applications to see if they were the cause, and formatting the media card for blackberry use. I have even reformatted the phone 5 to 6 times and installed a clean new OS onto the phone and the problem is still there. The only short-term solution I found in fixing this problem is when using the Desktop Manager to backup my data on the phone. After backing up the data, the phone will recognize my media card and I can access it fine for about 2 to 3 days. Then the phone fails again and I have to keep backing up my data to get my phone to work. Now I am very tired of repeating this process. Either I get a long-term solution or I need a new phone (I believe I still have warrenty).
The phone is great but this problem is getting on my nerves. Someone please help me!

Nokia Lumia 1520 video recording on Microsd card i...

First off, I have a Nokia Lumia 1520 for about one month now. I love the screen size and everything. My picture/video recording to phone memory works fine. I have recently purchased a Class 10 Sandisk Pixtor 64GB microsd card from Best buy for video/pictures storage due to this device having only 16GB of memory.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/sandisk-pixtor-64gb-microsdhc-class-10-memory-card/1299201.p?id=12190475...
Picture taking is fine writing to this card. However, I noticed that on all video recording mode (720p to 1080p), the video would sometimes skip and lose a few frames here and there. For example, when i try to record a video of a kid running, the video playback will show the kid run across but would jerk or freeze a bit during his run (almost like the phone is too busy doing other tasks during recording). Playing the same videos on a computer show the same result which means the video taken were bad to begin with. My temporary fix is to switch video/picture recording to the phone storage itself but that defeats buying the sd card in the first place.
Anybody else having this issue? I couldn't find another microsd card to test but i wonder if the phone itself is having a performance issue with sd cards in general. Should i engage with tech support from Nokia?

It is quite well known that Class10 card are overkill on a mobile phone and in many cases have been proven to actually have worse performance when compared to even Class4 cards.
Class10 cards really only make sense in (high end) DSLR ca,eras where itis a requirement the shots can be written to the card fast. In practical use the class only indicates the card cab sustain a transferrate of X MB/s and with that in mind a Class4 card even will be plenty fast for your mobiel phone.
Due to the fact a Class10 card is basically overspec for the hardware it may even cause timing issues.

Nokia Lumia 822 has MicroSD card issues

I upgraded to my Lumia in April, and since then, it has ruined 3 MicroSD cards. It either stops recognizing that they are in the phone (after which I've discovered that putting them into my computer and formatting them, they can be recognized), or simply deletes everything.
My latest SD card has lasted about a week so far, but I noticed that after synching my phone (to the Windows program that it uses on your computer) my "Camera Roll" was emptied of most of the pictures. There were two pictures left, but I was unable to "attach and send" them or "attach and share" to any of my messages or apps.
Also, anytime I synch my music through the Windows program on the computer, it adds another copy of the song to the card, or removes songs that I want to keep on the SD card.
The program used to synch isn't very user friendly, especially when trying to navigate pictures (only lists the file names, no options for thumbnails whatsoever), so I might just need help learning how to use that better?
I love my phone, but it has become a large pain, considering this isn't the only issue I've encountered.
Is anyone else having issues like these? And if so, have you found any solutions?

Hi ARowald,
I understand your concerns regarding the SD card issues you have encountered. A review of my resources indicate that this issue has been escalated to our software team and the manufacturer will address these issues in a future software update (No ETA).

Is There A Maximum Size Limit for The MicroSD Card?

Hey all,
I'm a BB newbie. I installed an 8GB MicroSD card. Finally figured out that you must format the card from the device in order to get it to work.
However, in doing so, my 8GB card is only recognized as 4GB. Is there a maximum size card that the 8300 series(I have an 8320 through T-Mobile) will recognize or is there something strange going on with my MicroSD card???
The manual isn't clear on that.
Thank you

Supported SD card size is OS dependant as follows:
BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.0 - Up to 2 GB
BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.1 - Up to 4 GB
BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.2 - Up to 4 GB
BlackBerry Device Software 4.3.0 - Up to 8 GB
BlackBerry Device Software 4.5.0 - Up to 8 GB
BlackBerry Device Software 4.6.0 - Up to 16 GB
Note that 16 Gigs was just added to the list a few days ago! This is directly from the Tech Support Site here:

How to sync music to the N8's MicroSD card

I bought a 32GB MicroSD card for my N8 so that I had enough capacity to store all of my MP3s. Unfortunately I can't convince Ovi Music Player to sync music to that location. It always tries to sync the music to the N8's 16GB internal storage area despite there not being enough capacity to do so.
Is there any way to configure either Ovi Music Player or the N8 to use the MicroSD card exclusively for the music library? It's making me very frustrated.

Putting Music on ANY Nokia phone is very simple !! All you need to do is make sure the music has artwork embedded before transfer and the track and album info is correct. Once the music is in a state where it is fit to be put on the phone, it doesn't matter if you sync with Ovi Suite, Ovi Music, Windows Media Player or whatever. !!
/t5/Nseries-and-S60-Smartphones/Album-art-in-Music-Player/ta-p/948321
Whilst I hear what you say, carman, just search for the number of threads relating to the problems many people have (and I have had corrupted libraries, album art missing, etc, and I am a fairly experienced user) just trying to get music into a library. IF it was working, as it should, then the facilities provided by Nokia should just transfer the music in a easy standard way, complete with artwork, to your desired location, and you should end up with a working music system and a completely updated working library. There should be ONE recommended way of doing it, which should be fairly automatic, simple, reliable, safe and should just work. That situation does not exist.
Now, I am not saying providing flexibility by providing other alternatives is not desirable. What I AM saying is that Nokia should be able to say - "if you do it this way, then it will work correctly." From the number of people who have problems with music transfer and libraries, it is obvious that this message has not reached the mass of the users. Whether that is an inability to provide such a feature, or an inability to communicate what it is, and how to use it, Nokia is falling down somewhere. To be honest, after trying to transfer my music to my sd card, unsuccessfully, and then getting advice to go into the file structure and delete files, I gave up and just loaded it onto the phone. Why should an end user (most of whom, like my mother, are not as technically competent as me) need to start searching for and deleting files just to get their music library working? No wonder the restrictive practices implemented by Apple have been lauded (although I don't like that company because of it!). At least they have made their product relatively user-friendly, which is a BIG plus when you are dealing in this sort of area. Not everybody is capable of dealing with the sort of problems people seem to encounter doing something as simple as loading music (in fact, probably the majority ....). It should just work! This lack of ability to 'keep it simple' has been the downfall of Nokia. Their developers provide superb bells and whistles, but seem not to have grasped the fact that bells and whistles are fantastic to have, AS LONG AS THE BASICS ARE ROCK SOLID. And from my experience, transferring music to an sd card is no way a simple or rock solid process, without you doing a lot of digging to find out how to do it successfully - hence all the posts. KISS!

Can't transfer files from PC to BB 8800 microSD card

I have a BBerry 8800. As part of trying to resolve the problem described below, I have recently upgraded the OS to v4.5.0.81 (Platform 2.7.0.78) (Rogers network version).
I recently purchased a 2GB microSD card for this Blackberry. The BB seems to recognize the card (when I go to Options/Media Card it shows 1.8GB total space and 1.8GB free space). As per other posts here, I have set the other options in this area to:
Media Card Support = ON
Encryption Mode = None
Mass Storage Mode Support = ON
Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected = YES
However, I cannot seem to transfer files from my PC.
The BB does not appear as a "device with removeable storage" in Windows Explorer. Nor does it seem to appear in the Roxio Media Manager - in the devices area it only shows BB internal memory.
Does anybody have any suggestions on what might be the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Here is a bit more info that I have been able to confirm. Perhaps this will help someone identify a solution to my problems:
1. I was able to get my home PC (Windows Vista) to see the Blackberry as a removeable storage device. This is with:
Mass Storage Mode Support = ON (and the latest USB drivers)
and I was then able to transfer files to the BB as needed.
2. However, my work PC (XP Professional) still cannot see the BB (either through Win Explorer OR through Media Manager). However, if I set Mass Storage Mode Support = OFF, then Media Manager sees the Media Card and I can transfer files via this mechanism.
Any further thoughts on what might be going on?

2 GB microSD card for N3250

has nokia or other flash storage companies released this much awaited 2 gigabyte version of the microSD card? can the 3250 possibly use this larger capacity card if it becomes available ? just a question guys

I think the 3250 will only support 1 Gig of memory card!
i just thought if it needs only a firmware upgrade. it may be just like the 6230 i owned before. i know it supported only 128 MB of memory initially but when i inserted a larger card, a 512 MB, it did read it! think so because it uses a newer firmware. i hope nokia's into this, understanding that memory doesnt need to be limited to 1 GB of memory if their are other higher capacity cards of the same format storage...
By the way megadodo, thanks anyway...

SanDisk microSD card not detected

Greetings,
My 8900 model is not detecting the 2 GB microSD card I just purchased for it. I have triple checked the insertion, rebooted the device, updated the software, reformatted the card on my PC, and set the Memory options to automatically detect and use a media card once inserted.
Can anyone tell me why the card is still not being detected? Many thanks!

Also keep in mind that what ever else you have stored on the phone memory will limit the amount of messages as the phone memory is a shared space.
Contacts, Images, Ringtones, Music, Calendar entries and other things stored on the phone memory limits the space left to be use by messages. Go to your gallery and see what you have stored in phone memory and try to put it on the memory card instead.
You can also try to do the following :
Menu->Gallery->Options->Memory Status->Phone Memory
You should get a break down of the usage as in :
Free Memory : x.xxMB
Gallery : x.xxMB
Messaging : x.xxMB
Applications : x.xxMB
Bookmarks : x.xxMB
Knowledge should be your Advisor when you need help.

Lumia 625 does not detect MicroSD cards, please he...

My Lumia 625 does not detect MicroSD cards when inserted.
I have tried powering off/on.
I have tried formating them in my PC.
I have updated my phone to 3050.0000.1334.0007
I have tried a Kingston 64GB SDXC Class10
I have tried a Sandisk Ultra 64GB SDXC Class10
I have tried formatting the cards in various ways including exFAT / FAT32 / FAT64 etc.
The only progress i made was when i tried formatting in NTSC and after inserting the card i recieved a message saying "incomattable formatted card inserted, do you whish to format the card in a compattable format?" After choosing yes, the phone formatted the card and then the card was undetected...
This was confirmed by checking the card in my PC, which confirmed that the card had been formatted using exFAT, which i believe is the correct format for the phone/card.
Clearly the phone is somehow detecting and writing to the card and the card is functioning properly, except that the phone does not detect that the card exists as expanded memory and will not allow me to use it.
Any help with this would be really appreciated!
Becoming quite frustrated now...

Hi Pepperami33,
Have you tried to perform a reset? It will delete all your data so backup is required. See this link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/how-to/wp8/basics/back-up-my-stuff for the steps on how to backup your files. After creating a backup, go to Settings > About > Reset your phone.
If the reset will not work, it is best to have your phone checked by our care point. Visit www.nokia.com/support for more info about the repair process.

No luck DLing music on my Centro microSD card

I just purchased a Kingston 4gb microSDHC card, which I understand should be compatible with the Centro (verizon).
I upgraded the Centro to the latest software version 1.03.
I tried downloading one song into PocketTunes v. 4.0.4 following the user manual, through WMP.
The first song loaded onto the microSD card, but once I switched to the phone app and then back to PTunes, a message said that "The card that contains the song has been removed".
I then tried formating the card on the Centro, and it said it could not format the card. I used a card format program to format the card on the PC, and that wiped out the one song that DLed.
I tried DLing other songs using the Sync cord, and it said it was successul but I see NO songs on PTunes.
Did they load onto the phone, eating up memory? I can't find them. If they are on the phone's memory, how do I delete them?
Any ideas on what's wrong and why I can't get the music onto the files?
Thanks!
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
If the songs are on the card, you might just need to refresh the library listing in PT. Depending on what "skin" you are using, either tap the music note icon in the lower left of the screen on the Sleek (Blue) skin, or tap the Open button on the built-in skin. It should scan your card and present you with a list of songs that it finds. Songs should be located in the /audio folder of the card. I've never used Hotsync to move songs to the card, but rather I use a USB card reader and just drop them into the /audio folder on the card.
