memory card music Has anyone figured out how to load music on this thing? I put a 2 GB SD card with music in the phone, but I couldn't see that it made any difference. The player says empty.

Through much trial and error I figured out the same points that you mentioned. The trickiest thing was getting the card in exactly the right position. Also it appears that the music files have to be in a folder called "My Music" that one has to create on the card. If the folder is called "Music" then the phone never finds the songs.

The music has to be in mp3, non VBR, format. It also wont recognize high kbps formatted songs either. It did work with 128kbps mp3's in my own phone. Also getting the card in right was a problem till I figured it out. The little metal clip has to slide over the card to lock it into place. The card will fit into a groove in the slot and will not slide around if you have it placed correctly. Hope this helps.

I play music and videos fine from the internal memory. Mp3 for songs and mpeg2 works for videos hope this helps!

like the one guy mentioned there is app called es file explorer that gives you access to the memory card and i got a 32 gb card in my 16gb tablet. with the video player he mentioned (there are others out there) you can play videos or music which are on your memory card circumventing the transfer option the tablet gives you. also the video players lets you play other codecs that the tablets installed video player wont let you play. there are also music players that let you play flac. and other audio codecs files from the sd card

Looks to me like there is no way to have the files play from the SD card by default. This is a major flaw, one of many.

I'm not tech savvy enough to understand exactly what you mean by SD card mode; however, for the time I had the headphone here is what I was able to do. I loaded music on the card; I then inserted the card into the headphone. I could play, skip forward/backward. Like James Albert said below, there is no menu so you just play since you are playing strictly from the SD card. You have no way of knowing what is coming up next. I sent my headphone back because it was too loose of my head--it kept sliding to the back of my head. But I have to admit, the sound was great.

Although I haven't used it yet, I have an app called AppMgr that will do that. Why haven't I used it? Using the SD card for music, not apps...:-)

Mine always restarts the last song played before unplugging. There must be an internal charge that holds the memory. I have not figured out how to change to "shuffle" mode. The display shows different modes available. I don't have enough buttons on the unit or remote to access modes unless there is a secret button press combination needed. If anyone finds a way to change to shuffle I would like to know.

I couldn't find a way to do so. I needed to remove the music from folders in order to play them. You could use separate memory cards I suppose.

Yep, I store all my music on the SD card and just stream it off from there, so you do not need to download it to the tablet. Just think of it as storage expansion. Sony also just released an update for the tablet allowing for larger capacity SD cards like 64gb+.

You have to buy one. I had a tough time finding a cheap one with a small amount of memory then whenI finally did, I loaded the card with my kids music put in new batteries (because I thought they were dead) and found out that the MP3 player had died and I wasted my money on not only the SD card, but on on MP3 player itself as well :(

I had the same problem. It turned out that some of the files were not MP3s but MP4s. Once the conversion was made to MP3s, I had no problems loading them on to an SD card.

I did not have that player ? in case, is it not working !, check acceptable memory of that player ? i think that player has maximum acceptance memory size 8GB.

All you need to do is put the music on the memory card and you can play it through your phone. This phone also has a built in radio so you can play music through there also.

Send it back. I have music on the card and the player and haven't had an issue.

I recently bought the kingston 1 gb microSD for my vx8300. The phone recognized the card and shows the full 1 gb, but when u put music in the my music folder, nothing shows up for me. The only way i could get music onto it was by putting it in the my mp3 folder. Under my mp3s, the songs are organized by file name so there is no real organization. Other users say that the card works with the 8300, but my experience tells otherwise.
