I recently bought a Samsung Messager Touch, as well as an 8 GB MicroSDHC card. I plugged the micro card into the adapter, and the adapter into the SD port of my Dell Mini 10v Hackintosh. I copied over a little less than 8 GB's of AAC (.m4a) music files, and then put the micro card into the phone, yet the Messager Touch states that the card contains no music. I then tried converting the files to MP3, but still, nothing. I placed the card back on eBay assuming that I bought the wrong type (a MicroSDHC instead of a regular MicroSD), but before it sells, I'd like to make sure that I'm not doing so for no reason. Do I need a regular MicroSD card, or should the SDHC work, and I'm simply not doing it correctly?
Why don't you read the manual that came with your phone? I doubt it has anything to do with the card being HC or not. All HC stands for is high capacity.
Are you sure that your phone doesn't make you use some sort of proprietary software to load your music on? The phone I have requires me to transfer the music using some POS software suite.
I looked through the manual and couldn't find anything on its use as a music player except for "press the Music Player button to play music." Very rarely have I found a piece of electronics with a manual that actually helps. But anyway thanks man, I appreciate the reply. This place was more helpful than fucking CNET...

I'm willing to bet it has EVERYTHING to do with SDHC actually. Many readers aren't SDHC compatible, as larger microSD cards are kinda new-ish technology. I know this from experience buying flash carts for my Nintendo DS...all the new ones specifically state "SDHC COMPATIBLE".
I'm not sure where the "HC" starts...4 gigs? Or is it 2? I know my flashcart isn't SDHC compatible, but I only have a 2 gig card, so I'm not 100% sure on that one. My phone also only has a 2 gig card in it...hmm.
Sorry to not be too much help, but yeah, I bet it was the SDHC shit giving you trouble.
That's the manual right there. If you open the PDF up and go to page 101 of the pdf (it's 97 in the manual), it gives instructions on how to load the music on to your phone.
In older devices, sure, anything that's come out in the last two years will most likely support HC cards. Either way it just sounds like it's got an odd way of transferring music (most media phones have some quirks) to his device. I decided to download a third party app called BitPIM to do transfers to and from my phone, also let me get around verizon's blocking of using free ring tones.
