compatibility issues - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

will type II compact flash work in the xda II? Seen 2.2 gig for under a £100

The SDIO slot only supports SD and MMC cards. If you want to use CF (or CFII cards) you need the backpack for the XDAII, that should be available for appr. 120 Euros. For further features of the backpack please follow this link:

A few quick XDA2 / M1000 questions....

Hi All,
I'm considering getting an XDA2 (actually on orange so it will be the SPV M1000 or whatever they call it)
A few questions:
1) Does the XDA2 have a CF slot ? The O2 & Orange website don't state what types of card it supports.
2) If it doesn't have CF, how easy & cheap is it to have wireless networking? (not via BT)
3) Lastly, because the M1000 & the XDA2 both appear to be the same device could I install a UK O2 rom if the Orange one is lousy ?
Thanks
Neil
1: no CF slot but you can buy an addon back pack with built in CF slot
2: it used SD/MMC and SDIO so you can buy a SDio wifi card to use
3: yes you can put the o2 rom on but is there any need? lol
Thanks Gaz,
Real shame about no CF though I'm thinking I might stick with the Ipaq 4150 and just get a small mobile.
Cheers for the info
Neil
wifi on xda2
Why would you want CF ?
If its just for wifi then you can buy an SD wifi card (known as an SDIO card) much much smaller than CF
thanks ! :roll:
CF stuff seems a lot cheaper than SDIO (ie. SDIO wifi looks to be around £80 whereas CF Wifi can be had for £30)
Also CF seems to have a lot more choice of available cards.

What SD Card Are You Using?

Hi guys,
looking to get a 1gb sd card for the Magician M500 to upgrade from a Sandisk 256mb card.
Just looking around on forums but people are saying some do work and some dont!
The obvious card that i was going to get is the ADATA Myflash 1gb 150x,
due to its speed, however some of you saying this card does not work?
So the question is what card do you use and what size is it?
Thanks
Ambro
come on 13 views already and no one has replied?
you cant be that lazy can you to reply back?
I use San-Disk 1gb Extreme III
works perfect, and fast
Ok, ok, hold your horses.....
I'm using SanDisk 1.0 GB (normal one) without problems
under 2005 on a SPV M1000.
i am using fujifilm 1GB SD card with no problems at all
I used to use a 'normal' SanDisk 1GB
I now use a Zynet 2GB running at 68x speed.
I think there are far more issues with 2GB cards and the JAM than 1GB.
The ADATA 150x 2GB did not work on my device.

yeah dont think that the spv m1000 has any problems with 1gb or 2gb Sd cards, i was on about the M500 its a different type of phone to the M1000! and its known as the imate jam or magician aswell as the M500.. (hence this was posted in the magician forum)
thanks for the feedback so far though
sh500:
when i transfer using Activesync and my magician i get speeds of about just under 2700kbps, what kinda of speeds are you getting with a 68x card?
you can find out by using analog x netstat live.
http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/network/nsl.htm
Install that prog and load it up comes up with a panel, right click and configure and it shows tcp/ip interface select the 127.0.0.1 and measure in bits! it will display the speed of transfer between phone and computer!
Attached my sample...
Rougly achieved 2600kbps using Sandisk 256mb Ultra II Sd Card..
ambro,
I'm afraid I cannot check as my JAM is in repair for a dead pixel!
I think the Ultra II is almost the same speed (as 68x) is it not?
Plus, although im no expert, i think there is a limit to how fast our JAMs can utilise anyway. I may be wrong.
I am using an 1 Gb Princeton card on my new Qtek S110 and it works very good. I had no problems with it.
just been told about this 1gb memory card at eBuyer..
its £39.99 1GB Viking SD Card
http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/prod...2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=82393
Its not one of the high speed ones but its cheap!
thinking about purchasing it btw i've been told it works with the Magician
Go on ... spoil yourslef and get a 150x!!!!
Bought a TwinMOS Ultra-X
1Gb 66x
Everything OK, working just fine!
Cheers
using a toshiba 1 gb card. used a 512 mb by sandisk but discovered that i could only use 420 mb...not sure if this is a problem with the card itself or if this is a common thing. anyone experienced this? i know that that for all sd cards you can't really use the entire size description...example if your card is 1 gb you can only use 900-plus of it and not the entire 1gb. in my case my toshiba sd card allows me to go and use 993 mb which suits me just fine.
1GB sd card are becoming very cheap as the 2GB have come into the market.
Although, double the size does not yet mean double the price. 2GB are generally about 115% more than the 1GB.
I had my SanDisk 1GB for only about a month and sold it to get a 2GB.
I tried PQI 133x 2G, but failed. Now using Sandisk 2G without problem!
I'm using a Panasonic 1GB pro high speed (20 mb/s). No problems whatsoever.

Mini SD Card with Adaptor in Jam

Hi...I'm one of the ones that has suffered from 2gb cards not working in my Tmobile MDA Compact.
I'm likely to upgrade in the next 6 months to the Wizard and was going to buy a 1gb mini sd with adaptor.
Has anyone used these with the magician, and if so, do they all work or do I have to stick with sandisk ultra II's?
Yes, I have a 256mb mini sd card in my magician (with adapter) the phone doesn't see it any different.
Thanks Furby....anyone else had any problems...anyone used a 1gb mini sd in particular, and if so, which brand?
I am using a Sandisc 1 gb minisd on my magician, and it all works fine! Hopefully the 2gb minisd work also (heard theye where hispeed ones )
I'm using a generic 512MB card I bought originally for my C500.
min sd card
I am using a mini sd 1gb scan disk in my m500 and mda vario. No issues so far.
T-Mobile supplies a 256MB Mini-SD with their branded version of the HTC Magician, called the MDA Compact....
It works perfectly, although i find it strange they provided a Mini-SD rather then cheaper SD's.
Can't be T-mobile UK supplying the SD cards, as they never supplied one with any of the 6 we bought here at work!
neither have they supplied any Mini-SD's for the Varios that have been bought!
Using Apacer SD 1gig, minor problem sometimes could not detect the card. need to reinsert once a while.

2 GB SD card for Qtek S110?

I have a Qtek S110 mobile (aka I Mate Jam Charcoal) and I would like to purchase a 2 GB SD card for it.
Unfortunately, it seems like most of the 2 GB cards are not compatible with it (I have already had to return two cards purchased from various websites).
Looking on the MobyMemory website, the 2GB SD UltraII SanDisk Memory card seems to have the widest compatibility, but Qtek S110 is still not on the list of compatible mobiles.
I was wondering if anyone could confirm for me whether they are compatible before I place an order.
Or if not, do you know any other 2 GB SD card which is compatible with Qtek S110?
Thank you for your help!
sunday i will order sd sandisk 2 giga,it's the most compatibily

Support for mini SDHC

Does anyone know whether or not an 02 XDA Atom Exec will work with a 4gb mini SD (either from Sandisk or Transcend)? Would a firmware update solve the problem>? If not what options do i have
thks
i also have the same question.
I have the same question. I contacted O2 about the mini SDHC issue, but they are very vague with their answer (below - dated 16th July 2007)
"Thank you for contacting O2 Asia Technical Support.
With reference to the query that you have made, the Xda Atom has been tested with memory cards with a capacity of 2GB. By using a memory card with a higher capacity such as what you have mentioned, 4GB, may possibly cause some software conflict.Thus it may compromise the functioning of your device.
We hope this information is useful. Thank you.
Sincerely,

If anyone is using a miniSDHC card on the atom, i will be glad to know which one. Also, is there any upgrade of software / firmware than can make this possible...
I have a miniSDHC card, Trascend brand. Won't read at all on the Atom. So don't get your hopes up. <_<
Try this drivers from HTC ATHENA for SDHC support on Atom.
Note, that it was not fully tested...

not SDHC but 4 gb works with atom
hi there,
I have an atom and it works with a 4 gb Topram minisd just fine, it's not no SDHC, and not sure if this answers your question. you can get this for like 40 bucks on e**y.
slamming_sammy1...
that's good news - incidentally, i went for the 2 gb card before i read your post. well, i'll have to upgrade sometime, i guess.

I bought O2 Atom Life just a week before. The same day I bought I did logged in to get WM6 upgrade and within 3 hours of purchase my device was on WM6.
When I downloaded the ROM after Registering and entering my IMEI the download page came and there was clearly mentioned that after WM^ upgrade the device will be able to use miniSDHC card but the capacity was not mentioned. BUT IT IS QUIET CLEARLY CONFIRMED THAT WM6 CAN READ miniSDHC CARD WHICH CAN BE ANYTHING ABOVE 2GB.
But its true that the device may start to slowdown, as well as the count of stored files increases to huge number. This is not tested by me but when I used 2gb card on MotoMing with more than 1000 files, the device started slowing down, though it was linux based. And we all know how windows behaves

Which patch?
I need too this patch..
Device Atom life

I am unable to download Athena_sdhc.rar anyone can re-upload on rapidshare please
I guess if it works for Atom, it also works for HP rw 6828 (with "helloWorld" WM6.1 Rom fro this forum)
Do you know if it works with a micro SD 8GB or higher with a mini SD adapter ?
Some people report that 8GB works.
I use a 2GB from "integral" without problem.
I tried with a 4GB micro SD Kingston with mini-SD adapter, and it seemed to work.
Any slowdown when a lot of files are on the SD card ?
Did someone tried this link
I purchased an second hand Atom Life with WM6.0 but it would not read a SDHC 4GB card until the attacehd program was installed. But i soon found that the standard ROM sucks and then loaded a WM6.1 from Medkid and it works like a dream!!....that is everything good and SDHC support for my 4GB card is built in. Otherwise here is the SDHC driver for WM.
