MicroSD=Transflash, Mini SD is NOT Transflash

[edkwon]

I know the moderators won't do this, but it should be made a sticky, the same question seems to be posted by samsung owners at least once a week, now with the increasing number of phones using microSD=tflash cards



here is mango808's great reference pic:

Confirmed - the 1GB MicroSD works with the Samsung A920. No speed lagging either.

Mine is a microSD/Transflash adapter with the Micro SD card...that would make it transflash correct? I got it with my a920.

really... why they bother calling it "MicroSD" AND/OR "Transflash"?

is real annoying, its like their marketing team cant decide, so they just throw everything in

hey guys...i found this card.. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...?EdpNo=1734067
and ive been wondering if itll work in a t809?..because ive heard a lot of people have sandisk cards and im wondering if thats the only brand i can use?.,..and i have one more quick question....t809 has 4 playlists with 30 songs in each..does that mean that it can hold only 120 mp3s?...or can i just put the extra in the root folder or something?..thanks

I don't see why only one brand of card would work.

How do you load music on the Transflash card?

Theres several ways, the fastest is insert t-flash + SD card adapter into the SD card reader slot of your PC, and drag n drop files that way. Have you ever used a memory card for your other devices like a digital camera before?

Here's the deal: SanDisk developed this standard and called it TransFlash. Now before something can be designated as SD, or Secure Digital, it must be accepted by the SD Card Association.

So basically, SanDisk released this format as TransFlash, then the SD Card Association accepted it as microSD. Now since products were already being sold marked as TransFlash and so as to not cause confusion, SanDisk now labels the cards on the packaging as "TransFlash / microSD".

If you don't get it, refer to this article from July 2005 http://www.itworld.com/Comp/1940/050714microsd/

I was checking to see if anyone knew of known compatibility issues with off brand MircoSD cards for example “Dane-Elec” microSD, I plan on getting a 512mb for $15, or $20 I don’t remember so if anyone knows of issues let me know

I have a Samsung t609(T-Mobile)
