Transfering everyting to new SD card

MarkMoore · #1 (**permalink**) 09-11-2008, 09:17 PM

I'm going form a 1 GB to a 2 GB SD card, is there anything special that I have to other than a 'Select All' and 'Copy' to the new card. I have quite a few programs and data stores on the current card.

Thanks

You got it select all and copy.
Oh ya Paste.

You should be good. Small chance something might get corrupt but a slim one.

I usually create a temp folder on my desktop and copy everything from the card to that and the new card. I just like having a backup.

OK - I transfered everything over but it's not working. My device locks up with the new 2GB SD card. I've tried softresets and swapping the cards while the battery is removed - it still locks up. I have WeatherPanel installed and on my Today Screen, so I thought that was the problem - I removed it form the Today Screen (as well as everything else) and still locking up.

Any suggestions?

I think the card fried - I tried it in a few other devices (GPS, CardReader) and nothing. I tried reformatting it and it get to 99%, then fails... Looks like I'll be sending it back to Kingston.

My buttie on Sprint got a Samsung ACE and bought a four gig, but his phone can only take a two so I traded him a two for a four. I just cut and paste. Life is good
