Hi everybody,
My question : is it possible that on my S100, the SD slot is one SD only, and not one SDIO enable port ??? Seems strange, but now, I think I have proceed with all the tests I could immagine to make my SDIO Wireless card working, without success, I really wonder if this could not be an hardware or one slo problem... How could I check this SDIO well working ? I have try to use my standard SD storage cards, there are working very well, and I do not have any other SDIO device to test....
Any idea ?
Thks
I just precise that I donot have any led or other that could show me if the device get power etc... or not.
Bye

Did anyone experiment with integrating a wi-fi SDIO card INSIDE the Magician? I am curious to know if there is enough space inside the case to solder in the internals of the Sandisk WiFi card.
Would also be interesting to know if it is possible to integrate the Sandisk 256 meg wifi card but leave out the Mem and wire it back to the SDIO pins so that the card slot could still be used to plug in a 1g-2g card and still enjoy built-in wifi...
Thought I ask it here, perhaps someone heard something. In case I put a bug in anyone's ear, a reminder that experimenting with something like this will void the warranty... so at your own risk But if you decided to do it, let me know
I think that's impossible because there is almost no space inside the magician. Moreover, such modification will mostly disable the fuction of the SDIO slot when you enable the sdio wifi card, I blieve it is pointless to do so.
Why don't buy a blue angel or wait for the next generation of magician if you really need wifi but do not want to use an external wifi sd card.
Sorry for jumping in here . ..
Is the Magican Qtek s100 support the 256mb WiFi SD card.. ?

Dear Joachim
Unfortunately, due to lack of Custom Bus Driver on your device (MOST HTC DEVICES), the unit will not support this card. We hope that your device manufacturer will soon come up with a fix on this issue.
We appologize for any inconviniences this may have caused you. We recommend that you use the SD WIFI CARD with no memory instead.
Kind Regards,
Sudhi K.

Hi again .. Plz look at this URL: http://www.mtekk.com.au/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4630 Its a AU PocketPC forum. There is a guy that says it works. Are you completly sure that the WiFi 256mb one dont work in this new Qtek s100 / iMate Jam ?? Regards Joachim

Apparently this user has been able to get it to work. Our position is the same. The unit is not supported.

Plz.. say they have it wrong .. or have they even tested..??

Sandisk says NO
And I say YES (I'm posting with it just right now !!!!!)
It work great (WifiFofum found 20 wifi access point near my home , and +/- 80 access point on the road to my office )
Buy it, you won't regret !!!
Anything I need to do when I install it.. ?
Or just use the latest drivers from Sandisk ??
U can access the 256 mb onboard the WiFi card without any problem?
I feel the Qtek S100 realy need the extra mem on a SD card ..
Was soo sad when they told me it will not work...
Ur answer maked the day
Regards Joachim
I got no problems to access the memories
TNX Marcus..
Looks like I just have to buy me a "nonworking" Sandisk 256mb SD
I suppose if I send in photos of it in my qtek .. sandisk still says it isnt working ..

please, do you use sandisk or socket drivers with your sandisk card ?
thank's
I use the driver provided with the card (sandisk)
But I will try the socket (i heard that they work better)
Hi! I would appreciate your help in the following subject:
I would like to use a WiFi card with my QTek 1010. Since it appears that the 1010 is not equipped by default with a SDIO slot, I can not use the WiFi card...
My question is: is it possible somehow to make my 1010 compatible with SDIO cards? (ROM upgrade maybe???)
Thanks a lot!
Oliver
no it's hardware
the cpu in xda1 dont have a SD interface so require an external chip to handle the sd interface
xda2 and later have a cpu which have an SD interface which support SDIO
unless one could find a chip which had the same legs and same interface and was in general 100% compatible with the SD interface chip in the xda1 one could solver it out and replace it
but possibly one would also run into driver related issues as roms are very spc in what drivers there
would be easier and cheaper to buy a new device
and it would most surdenly void any warrenty the device would have
Quiz question. I've been doing some research into SDIO wifi cards for WM2005 and my SPV M1000.
What i want to know is, What chipset do Socket SD WLAN cards use? Is it per-chance: "Inprocomm"
Reason i ask is, i've ordered a SAFECOM SD wifi card, which ive heard doesn't have drivers for WM2005, however, it use the above chipset.
Alternativley, does anyone have drivers for this model card, or a way to make it work?
Cheers,
Tim
Iv read alot about but, no definate answers, so I was hoping you guys could finally give me the correct answer.
I have an SPV M1000 and as we all no there is no inbuilt wifi, I have bought a SDIO wifi and have a SD storage card, I have seen several hardware hacking projects saying that people have taken apart teir PDA and manually solder wires from the connecting pins of the SD slot to the wifi card, and they still have the SD slot free for the storage card. so cut a long story short they have internal wifi and they can use the sd storage card.
Is this a feasable hack?
not sure if newer roms changed that but himalaya dident use to be able to work with those sdio cards with both wifi and memory
Iv got a PLUSCOM SDIO card and it works great no probs at all, iv read some posts about the contollers on the boards wont be able to handle two devices at once.
In thoery I dont see any problems other than mounting it somewhere as surly the controller will just share the load as long as your not trying to use both devices at exactly the same time (not likely in my case) then it will be just like having one card in.
Hello,
Can anyone please tell me wheter the any SDIO card will work for GENE or not?
Also i want to know that, do they come with some memory or not?
I don't there is any SD card given bundled with the device. You may however get one for very cheap prices ~<10 dols.
Hi Carty, i think r.pitalia wanted to ask another thing.
The question is; Does any SDIO card ( For instance SDIO GPS receiver or SDIO Wi-Fi ) work with GENE?
Besides, The SDIO cards do not have extra memory in itself as far as i know however there is a slot for microSD memory cards on some of SDIO Cards such as this following products; http://www.spectec.com.tw/gps.htm
