Haven't played with it much beyond that, but I wanted to stress that the card was blank and the phone did see it as a 7771.30 MB card.
You are indeed correct. The phone will recognize the 8 gig card properly with the SDHC777 drivers installed. That is not the issue. The issue is when you want to playback music from the 8 gig card. Since the drivers you installed were developed before wider testing of these cards was out there the transfer rates were too high, which caused music to skip upon playback. This was identified when VerizonGuy had his kitchen out. Subsequently the lower transfer rates were incorporated into the latest WM6 kitchen by Helmi_C, which is available in the forum.

I would build a new ROM from this kitchen, and select SDHC drivers. You are then assured you have the SDHC driver set with the proper transfer rates. I have a Sandisk 6 gig card and its flawless!
