Has anyone got these working togther yet? If i use the san disk driver, the XDA II hangs when i try to scan for AP's, the socketcom driver just ignores the card, i have yet to try it with the latest 02 rom, but i dont hold out much hope, i cant even get it to format the storage card properly
cheers

Sorry, i seem to have put this in the wrong forum, will someone move it into the acessories for me (unless its more appropriate here)
as far as im aware you carnt use the these with the xdaII unless you disable the storage card, i have the wificard on its own and it works a treat (with the new 02 rom) .
How do you disable the storage? Does the socket verson of this card work?
sorry i didnt read it i just noticed bits and bobs as i have just the wifi with no memmory i got some bad news for you

Okay - so I thought it was a good idea to buy a combo card, not realising that this wasn't supported, when the standard WiFi-only card from SanDisk was... I'm not normally a compulsive buyer - that's what I get!!!
Has anybody come up with a work-around yet? I can't even get the WiFi part working at the moment, never mind the memory... I've got as far as being able to interrogate the card (but no AP browser) and haven't been able to format the memory, or connect to an AP (even though the little LED goes solid green). I wondered whether I'd see any improvement if I updated my ROM from 1.60WWE to 1.72WWE?
Thanks
The 256+WIFI is not supported by the XDAII
Sorry to break this to you but the card simply won't work. Apparently the XDA2 does not have the right internal drivers available to support the dual cards.
I am afraid that your ownly option is to return the card and buy separate memory and wifi cards.
After reading many posts, I must ask, can you recommend on a WIFI card for the I Mate?
I understood that SanDisk WIFI card makes many problems.

i've not read that
what i have read is nobody ever getting the sandisk wifi sdram combo card working
The SanDisc WiFi card drivers are a problem for many people, but installing the drivers for the Socket WiFi card (same electronics inside) usually sorts things out.
Anyone managed to get the XDA II working with the scandisk wi-fi card? I know there's an issue with the scandisk combined 256mb combined wi-fi cards...
the original sandisk sd wifi card works fine with my Xda II, the newer version which has on board memory apparently has real problems.
the Combination Card + wifi IS NOT Recommened by O2 it apparently should NOT work this is just an XDA problem
What SD Wi-Fi card works with the 02 xda, i've read quite a bit about the SD card being a tad flakey
I've been using my SanDisk SDIO Wi-Fi card for a year, and I have encountered some glitches, but nothing really serious.
The best drivers for this are the Socket Communications drivers version 1.42E ( http://www.socketcom.com/support/support_wlan.asp?Type=SDIO ). It works way better than the SanDisk drivers which have not been updated for a long time already.
With regards to the SanDisk Combo SDIO 256+WiFi card, the problem is the ability of Windows Mobile to address the funtion of both the wifi and the memory module at the same time. This should have been resolved in the SE version of Windows Mobile 2003, but I have not seen an update from the vendor specifically designed for WM2003SE.
Another SDIO Wi-Fi option is the AmbiCom card ( http://www.ambicom.com/products/wave2net/wl11-sd.html ), I have tried it and it works, but I was not able to test it extensively.
I got a Socket Wifi card. I had constant problems connecting to the network though the latest drivers seemed to resolve the problem. But now the card seems to have stopped working after 5 months. I would still would recommend a Socket card since there's not much choice, the only other one is from Pretec. The cards aren't physically the most robust so you have to handle them with care. Storing it in a wallet probably didn't help in my case.
Sometimes soft-reset needed on my XDAII
The only problem I have is that sometimes, when I am some 20 m from my wi-fi ADSL modem, I have to soft-reset my XDAII (newest ROM) to have the Sandiosk (without memory) recognised.

I had the weirdest thing on my Trinity while in New York. I was on 3G and was surfing the net. Because I installed Memmaid 1.72 on my pda (main memory), i moved my temp file tp my Sandisk Ultra 2 Gigabyte mini sd card. I also installed Pocket Mechanics 2.23 on the main memory and did defragmentation of my mini sd card to optimize the speed. I did this several times. Mind you all is great, surfing was wonderful then all of a sudden while trying to access xda-developers.com from my pda on 3g Cingular, it froze and couldn't advance past 35 kb. I repeated it twice then gave up. I went to my mini sd and all the folders and files vanished. Even the programs I installed on the mini sd. When checking the insalled programs in the settings, they were still on my device but the actual files in the mini sd where gone so the program icons did not work. I am not sure what happened. So I formated the mini sd now and it went back to 1933 mgbs free on the card. Before formating it had 160 mbs in use but nio actual files visible when accessing the card. Does anyone know what happened to my card Is it a rom issue?
Thanks,
Gilbert
hi Gilbert
i am not sure about that, but for my experience I had the same idenctical problem after defragmented the external memory with pocket mechanic, so after loosed my data once again I dont use P.M. anymore and my problems now are solved.
Hope this helps

Yeah, I wouldn't use it either. I've found the best way to format my SD cards is to take them out of the device copy all the files to the pc using a card reader and format the card using Windows XP.
Hello I have had a look at the wiki and still could not find the answer to my problem, so I decided to post.
I seem to be having trouble with my new Memory card for my TyTn. I just bought a 4gb microSDHC from the shop. I put a single song on it and put it in my phone. When I checked the memory it says this:
“Total storage card memory: Not installed”
Does this mean there is something wrong with the card or do I need to install something.
Cheers
Are you running a wm6 rom? high capacity sd is not supported on a stock tytn. Check the Windows Mobile 6 forum and look for a cooked rom that supports SDHC. I recommend the schaps 3.60a cooked rom. Been runnin it for a couple weeks now and im pleased with the speed/stability.
Thanks for your response Surrept, I have installed the schaps 3.60a-0823_full and the phone looks great now…but I still have the same problem with the memory, any other suggestions?
Umm, should I take the memory card back to the shop, and if so what is the best one that will work with my phone?
Can anyone help please

Last thing to try:
Reformat the card using the PC Fat 16 or 32
Check size shown on PC is correct.
Try again on your Hermes.
If it does not show up, reset with the card in place.
Try again.
If it fails again - do a hard reset with the card in place.
If all that fails, then return to the shop. There is no more you can do. Since the card is not faulty, you will be a bit at their mercy. It will be a gamble to get another 4gb card, a 2 may be safer. However if it's the contacts in the phone then no card will work correctly.

Thanks!
My friend had a look at the phone and said he had no idea what to do, he handed it back and the card just started working! Wow! Is it great how that works some times.
