Storage card trouble
I think I am missind fatfs.dll file - anybody can sent it - is in a windows folder.

My I-mate has 14 MB of internal storage on it. It can be used to permanetly store backup info like contacts, tasks and network settings so that you do not lose them during a hard reset. Under File explorer it displays as "Storage." When you insert an SD card it should come up under File Explorer as "Storage Card." When I first got my 512 SD card my I-mate was a little buggy about transfering files to it, but after a hard reset it worked perfectly. (I dunno what it was) If you can afford a hard reset maybe it will help. You can always save your Contacts/tasks/settings in the 14 mb storage before you do.

Card problem
Thaks for explanation, but my MDA II still does not read any card. I was browsing registry and could see that MMC and SD cards require fatfs.dll library what is not presented and registered. This library shall be in windows folder and if you send it I can register and test it.

File explorer hangup

Hi
When I try to delete, copy or move a file with the file explorer, file explorer locks up. After a soft reset the file move, delete or copy has succeeded. This is the same for SD Card, Rom and Ram and has only just started.
Any suggestions before I perform a hard reset?
Cheers

mate,
this used to happen to me along with a couple of chaps in the forum. someone suggested that taking out the sd card and then doing a soft reset fixes up everything. worked but all that trouble... think it has something to do with the file explorer getting "confused" with reading the sd card (as someone said) but don't quote me. i finally did a hard reset and now everything is a-ok; even with the sd card inserted. must be one of those microsoft bugs...
cheers

Hi Robson
Thank you
Last night I performed a hard reset, installed most applications, and thought I would try deleting a file, once again file explorer hung.
I then performed another hard reset, and before I installed anything I tried to delete another file, again it hung.
I was just about to call orange and get a replacement, and I found your reply.
It now works if the SD Card is out. I will try to format the card again, and if that fails I will order a new Panasonic SD Card. My current card is a cheap Taiwan card.
Cheers

mate,
on the topic of sd cards; i do notice that sandisk isn't as good (no offense to those who love em); i use both panasonic and kingston. both of which, i've noticed, doesn't cause any file explorer hang ups. although after the hard reset my explorer app is working properly despite the sandisk sd card being inserted; perhaps the sd card you're using is indeed causing the hang ups. brand? so that we'll know what to avoid buying
cheers then

Hi
Its an Integral 128 MB SD Card www.integralmemory.com and its made in Taiwan
Cheers

Hi everybody.
I strongly recommend u to use such SD: TRANSCEND, PRETEC, HAGIWARA. Nothing personal - I dont work in that coporations :roll: :lol: , but IMHO...

Hi
If I soft reset with the SD card out then file sexplorer has no problems, but with it in duriong a soft reset any file operations causes the system to hang.
I just tried this with a 128MB pretec SD Card, Pansonic 8MB SD Card and a 128MB MMC and they all gave the same results, that if I soft reset wit h a card inserterd then file explorer hangs on any file operation.
I can live with this as I dont soft reset very often, and when I do I will simply pop the card out first.
Cheers

Storage cards not recognized anymore

Since last week my MDAII doesn't recognize my own 512 Toshiba card anymore nor other sd cards. There is just nothing.
If I look in Settings-Memory-Storage card, it just says:
"Total storage card memory: Not installed"
Different programs Pocket Mechanic included, don't find the storage cards. Soft resets, hard resets , reinstallation of the latest ROM and cleaning of the SD card didn't help. The problem seems not the the card itself (I can reach it on another PDA) but my own MDA. What can I do? Help!

I learned that restoring an "old" sprite backup directly after the upgrade to 1.72 removed the sd card entrance! So I reinstalled 1.72 and will not use the old sprite backup anymore.

Big problem with my StorageCard

Hello,
I had to do a HardReset.
After that, I can not delete/copy a file from/to the StorageCard.
It looks as if the card ist read/write-protected.
But where can I change this?
I can start a own program from the card,
and this program can write to the card.
But I can not start a cab-file from the card.
After the HardReset I did a backup with sk-tools,
everything looks fine and I can use the installed programs.
Thanks for help

same problem!
i have my 8gb and a 2gb (came with the phone)
after a hard reset i can nly access the 8gb via activesync which is very slow, if plugged into the computer with the adaptor it is recognised, but cant be opened, deleted, formatted etc
this is not the case with the 2gb memory stick?
any ideas? i cant even format it!

Hi.. Not sure if it will help but you coud try applying the SD Card Capacity Fix.... Your find it on the Hotfix Post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=604634

After several HardResets my HD2 was nice to me.
The problem came up with the installation of
Touch-Keyboard-Keypad.CAB (freeware)
There must be a READ/Write-protection somewhere
in the registry.
