I was wondering what you guys who have this combo like I do, do with the card while not in use ?
There are at the back of the cover of the Proporta Case a place for 2 normal size SD memory cards, but the SD Wifi is much longer.
Have you modified the cover in anyway ?
Any other ideas ?
Thanks

Proporta case / SDIO card
That was precisely why I didn't buy a Proporta case. But when I spoke to the sales guy at Proporta he said that he knew some people had got round the problem by tearing/cutting off the piece of plastic at the end of the SD slot on the case, and then it was just possible to fit the 50mm card in.
No idea if that does work, but I'm sure someone must have tried it.

Hi,
This is probably a silly question, but how do I release the SD card from my MDA Pro? I can get the mini SD card out of the converter no problem, but hooking my nail into the little indentation, but I can't get the SD card converter which came fitted out. I thought you pushed them in to release the catch, but it doesn't seem to release it. Is my unit faulty or am I just being dumb?
Thanks,
Dan

No you are right, you are supposed to push the SD Card in, then you will notice that it would now pop out allowing you to pull it out of the slot.
Thanks for replying. What a pain getting it collected and returned, and after I'd just installed all my software. ARHGHHHHH

That is the reason why I am staying away from the SD Mini Cards. I was afraid about the problem you described when the adaptor suddenly won't release itself from the slot.

That is what it came with from T-Mobile UK. Only got the unit this morning...
lucky...
I only got a dummy with mine from O2
You don't get a memory card with O2?
Gah, I've just had a frank exchange of views with t-mobile because they won't authorise an exchange unless I take the phone in to a shop so that some half wit phone salesman can verify that it is in fact shagged. So I said they could have the whole unit back as I'm not wasting my time on them any longer. So the plan was to go to o2 and get the much sexier looking black unit.

Does anyone know the biggest sized memory card you can put in the XDA Mini S?
I currently have a 2gb mini sd card in it - I saw you can buy 4 and 8gb cards - anyone know?
Much appreciated and thanx in advance
Some 4gb cards will work, but you have to make sure they are not the ones that are high compacity cause they are formated differently. The 8gb ones will probably not work at all. There should be a thread around here somewhere that has a list of 4gb cards that will work.

I read on the first link that there is a hack for the Treo 680 which works for the Treo 750 that allows one to use SDHC. How does a product which is supposed to be incompatible with a newer technology, become compatible? Can the same basic principle found in this driver be applied to WM5 devices such as the Wizard? Is it something in the hardware for the Treo only?
memory card query.
i bought a 2gb kingston card for my mini s 5 weeks ago and had no probs at all until today, i checked my mini this morning and it says there is no card installed, i checked the card in a friends mini and in a nokia and none recognized it used my mates card and my mini picked it up instantly. did my xda kill the card? i did take the card out last night twice while i was putting some data on to my friends mini, and i never checked it after id put it back in mine last night.
i guess what im asking is do you think if was user error or a bad card? as i want to order a new one asap, and dont wish to order the same make of card if it is due to the cards incompatabilaty with the mini. however if it is due to me being a ham fisted fool, il order the same, thanks in advance for your help on this
More than likely your cards not bad, it just lost it's format. The easiest way to fix it is to put it in a card reader and reformat it again. I have a 4 Gb card and I pretty much have to do that on a regular basis and when it decides to lose it's format my wizard doesn't see it at all either.

if it is broken, don't kingston do a lifetime guarantee? and if they do you don't have to buy a new one, just get it replaced
I'm looking for a small piece off of the main internal board and was curious if anyone had an unusable G1 with spare parts to release.
Thanks,
Which part is it your looking for off the main board?

I could use an 8GB SD card, is it SDHC?
I have a white G1 with a smashed screen that's just collecting dust

An 8GB uSD is by definition an SDHC.
"HC" is only in relation to the actual capacity.
You are more likely interested in the sd card CLASS (2, 4, or 6).

yes it is SDHC, it is a SanDisk class 2 SDHC 8gb card. This would classify it as the slowest of the classes. However, it is has ran fine for me and I haven't noticed any major slowdown. I'm sure a class 4 or 6 would be faster for bulk file transfers but if you're just looking for a storage medium for your phone it is more than sufficient. The card is about 4 months old.
I would be highly appreciative of any kind of trade like this. If you are interested please pm me or email me [email protected]. I will send you the card first out of good faith.
Cheers,
Blake
Anyone have a smashed G1 or one sitting on a shelf not being used? Anyone at all?

What is this transflash? is every SDHC transflash? if not, wich diference betwin them?
I am looking for buying a good speed also, Does anybody know this one below?
http://cgi.ebay.com/6t6z-TOPRAM-16G...C_Drives_Storage_Internal?hash=item518e6accd3
This is class 6, but in the annoucement says Trans Flash too, will it work on my fuze?
I wanna know if both these will work on fuze, because I am afraid of buying and loosing the item, please help me!
Kingston 16 GB class 2 works on my touch Pro like a charm ...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroSD
Appearently TF is the original MicroSD name.
Not sure you'd need a Class 6..., but it looks like it should work to me.
Be very carefull with cheap MicroSD etc Stuff from Ebay...
Especially from China!
This Ebayer is accused to manipulate the cards memory.
Because I fell for that "sosflash" memory hack stuff myself, I warn you.
Youll get a 2 or maybe 4 (if lucky) Gb MicroSD hacked to show 16Gb.
I brought a SanDisk card from Amazon a few months ago for £40

Don't buy memory cards from ebay...unless its a greally good seller. And you can tell a card is fake with the crappy writing on it. Cant find one for microSD but heres one for MSProDuo: http://www.gogetbuy.com/images/article/Fake_2gb_sony.jpg. You could clearly see by how the letters are printed.
I have bougth one of this on ebay, I hope it works as 16gb SD card, I will test it before feding back the user, when I was reading his feedbacks, I noted every of them and I saw that it was in the most positive, but if it dont work as 16gb I will f**** his feedbacks, explaining his frauds.
Hope everything works good, I dont want problems
hehe
Thank you all.

Just read there.. I fell for it too <.<
Bought a "cheap" 16 Gb MicroSD from Ebay. Afterwards I tried to get some movies and music on it. It simply gives you an error if it gets over 2Gb content!
No wonder, 16 Gb MicroSD arent cheap or common in china! Its the other way around!
So I spend around 20US on a fake 16Gb card.
That sucked. This fraud is often used for cheap MP3 player too.
I have PQI 16GB class 2 its working wery good
I think I just fell for the exact same thing. It hasn't even gotten here yet.
Is there anything I can do? I'd like to get my money back for pride's sake, but I also want to do whatever I can to get back at the seller.
Ok... I'm not so sure If i was supposed to make a new thread or reply to an old one... but If you replaced your MicroSD card, then what kind did you replace the 16gb card with? I put in an older 8GB C4 card and my phone is not working as well as before. It is not responding during sync and it opens applications a bit slower. Every time, after about 5 minutes into the sync operation, it stops responding and I have to reconnect it to my computer, and I fear that it is overcharging the battery.
So just curious, what brand, model (if you have it), size, and class, are you using currently?
SD Cards
Hi Kuree,
The first time I replaced my SD i used a Lexar 16GB Micro SDHC (it has a 4 in a cirlce on it as well). This one worked perfectly, syncing and there were no slow downs what so ever.
The card i have in my surround now is Also a 16GB MicroSDHC (with a 2 circled on it) this card also works perfectly. i'm not sure on the brand name as this one doesn't say it but I'm pretty sure it was a Lexar Mobile version.
I've only used 16GB cards so i can't exactly tell you if the 8GB card is the root of your issues.
Hopefully this helps you out!
If you have any more questions let me know and I'll see if i can answer them.
Take care,
Coockoo

Hi,
Is "ADATA" micro SDHC 4
They told me (were I bought this) that this card should work.
Now I can't even read or format the SD card....
Thanks!!
deleted
I didn't even know the surround had a memory card slot, where is it?
Any chance to revive the "adata" card?. I would really hate to trash 26 bucks...
To LKMR, search youtube, there is a nice tutorial on how to expand the memory of the phone.

I used a Sandisk Class 4 32GB. No problems at all... WELL worth the price and effort. They are also VERY cheap if you keep an eye on Deal a Day. I've bought 4 from there so far, the last was like $20.
