I have problem with upgrading windows via SD card. I found out that if I make a test of SD card in Wallaby Bootloader 5.15, everytime I get "TEST ERROR". I tried many times with different cards.
Could you try the test, and let me know if it is "normal", when SD card test fail.
How to do that: powerbuttotn + softreset -> wallaby bootloader -> hit (main) cursor key -> choose SD card TEST.
Maybe this is why I cannot upgrade with SD card. Maybe SD slot is bad....
Sorry mikulkajan,
but it appears to be your device/card, just tried with my O2 XDA, v5.15 bootloader and a 256MB MMC card and the test came up OK... - just to check the blatently obvious but if using an SD card is it unlocked?

How can I flash to WM2003 with bootloader 5.22. Other than the diagnostics menu, all I see (when hitting contacts) is:
CE ROM to SD
BOOT to SD
CE+BOOT to SD
GSM ROM to SD
CE+GSM to SD
Thanks in advance...
You need first to use an sd card and a card reader/writer, using the tools available on the forum you program the card with the rom image, you then place this in your xda, push power while using stylus to push in the hole on base of xda, the system will recognise the rom and ask you would you like to program the rom. Its a good idea to use that bootloader section that you are in to backup your existing rom first, ce to sd.
Thanks for the reply. I've done all that you said, but the bootloader just comes to a bootloader screen with the version and nothing else. It never asks me to do anything with the ROM. When I hit the contacts button, like in earlier versions of bootloader, there is no menu option to restore from SD.
there is no option for that, it does this automatically if you instert an sd card with the os image in the right format.
OSImageTool can create such an sd card for you.
I'm not sure what I have done wrong in creating the image then. I used xdatool with NK.nbf as the source and NK.nb1 on an SD card in a card reader as the destination. It creates fine, and when I enter the boot loader on my SX56, it goes from WAIT to GSM OK and then sits.
it does not matter what is on the sd-card before you write the os image on it using xdatools. the old data on the card is overwritten.
if you insert the card with the osimage on it in your xda, it should complain that the card is not formatted, if it says this it is ok, it just means that windows ce does not see a FAT filesystem on the card.
( so don't answer 'yes' to that question )
if you then boot into bootloader mode, you should get the question if you want to flash your rom.
I don't get the question to flash my rom. Please, what am I missing???
XDAtools:
Browse to NK.nbf as the source
Browse to NK.nb1 on SD reader as the destination
Boot with SD card into Wallaby
Screen goes from WAIT to GSM OK.
Nothing else.
I can see a file NK.nb1 on the card when I look at it in the card reader.
Do not use browse, use the drop down box in destination, choose sd card, then it will work, when you insert the card to your xda it will ask to format it, reply no and enter bootloader mode as you did before.
There is something about this bootloader that does not allow this or this option is disabled. I hvae the same problem and have flashed amny times on other bootloader version. I have a device with bootloader 5 and the same sd card flash that would not work on the bootloader 5.22 works on 5.15! So I don't have any idea. Something new form HTC :shock: I guess.

this is wrong
a sd card with the os image on it should appear as 'unformatted' or unreadable to either windows or windows ce.
you have to select sd card device from the dropdown menu.
such that the destination says something like

Hello, GREAT FORUM!
I have installed 4.01.16 ROM from lumpistefen kitchen. It's working normal, but a little buggy for me and i wonna to return to my origial 3.17 O2 ROM (i have nk.nbf).
But i can't do it from XDATools directly. The only way, as i see, is update from bootloader. I haven't SD card reader, so i write my 3.17 ROM with XDATools on 128 Mb SD card, using builtin XDA SD card slot.
Then i restart XDA to bootloader (press power+soft reset), which shows me following on the screen:
Wallaby Bootloader
5.15
GSM OK
That's all! What should i do next? How can i start re-flashing?
Can it be bootloader problem? Can it be solved fixed with pnewbootloader from XDAUtilities package (from XDA-Developers). Or i can make my device not loadable at all?
One remark: After rebooting WM2003 promt me to format my SD card to make it readable. Is it correct? Or there are some problems in SD card writting process..
Please, give me some ideas, what should i do! :wink: How can I re-flash my ROM?
I had a similar problem. I tried using XDATools to write a ROM to my SD card but when rebooting-with power key.. it went to the diagnostics screen directly. So I used XDArit1.exe to write to the SD card and this time the XDA recognised the image on the SD card and went into the SD Download screen. But to do this I had to borrow an SD Card reader from a friend.. Oh Also. I did make sure I had Bootloader 5.15 before I did this.
Hello! Although this is my first post on the forums, I have been reading extensively through these forums for the past ferw weeks since my acquisition of my new to me MDA (i.e wizard G3). Yesterday, I took out the sd card for a few hours and now when I put the card back in the wizard is not recognizing the sd card in the file explorer. I put the card in the PC and it is recognized fine there. I reformatted the sd card via FAT and inserted it back into the wizard but no luck. I soft reset the phone several times but in vain. I then eventually hard reset the wizard and THEN inserted the sd card but still not read. I tried going through the My computer--> Manage --> Disk Management but the sd card is not showing up on it.
The sd card is clicking in and out fine from the wizard. Any help would be greatly appreciated. All my medical programs were on the SD card. And with that many programs I cant just work off of the memory.
Thanks in advance

update
I installed the wm5storage and the program does not recognize the sd card either
Update
-Tried formatting to FAT with computer and re inserting did not work
-Tried Formatting with WM5storage and THAT didnt work either
-CID unlocked the phone, installed 3.08 ROM, and then "Crossbow reloaded" with 2,19 UK Radio Rom, tried inserting the sd card and still not work
-Tried formatting with "Flash Format" and the program says "no storage card detected"
I am thinking that I may have damaged the pins or something when I was reinserting the SD card, initially when I noticed the problem
2 options in front of me now!
1. buy another mini SD card and see if that works
2. Open up the Wizard to see if it is a hardware issue
Opinions etc would be greatly appreciated
thanks

Ive got the same problem with my Qtek 9100
hi i had a near identical problem occur with my xda mini, as in after removing and reinserting my sd card it was not being recognized. i happened to have a old mini sd card (only 64mb tho!) and that was recognized. so i just bought another 2gb sd and its been fine ever since, but saying that i have not removed it from my mini yet! which is getting a little annoying now as i was given a copilot kit and the software is on a mini sd card
Try removing all formatting and then allow the phone to format your card. I had a problem with my second MiniSD card after formatting on my PC.
Insert your card into your card reader. Right click "My Computer" and click on "Manage". Then left click "Disk Management", find your card and delete the partition. At this point, you can then stick the card into the phone and it will ask if you would like to format the card. Even though the computer will not recognize the card, your phone will.
Snapin Disabled
I tried the approach of right click my computer--> manage --> disk management --> but it tells me that the snappin is disabled and when I go into start--> run--> gpedit.msc --> to enable the disk management it still does not recognize my storage card in the disk management. Hence I am unable to remove the partition.
Thanks for the replies guys, any suggestions on how to enable the specific snapin on XP?
Thanks

New Mini SD Card
OK, so in attempts to diagnose the problem, I went out today and purchased another 1gb minisd card, inserted it into the wizard and................NOTHING. Still no luck. Does this narrow down to the problem to a hardware pin related issue? Or could this still be a software problem. I figured that a new sd card may resolve the issue but unfortunately not, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Ideas? Suggestions? Recommendations?
Thanks in advance

If you tried another card and a new ROM, I would say it is a hardware issue, if it's still under warrantee then I would send it in. If it's not and you want to try to fix it yourself, there is the HTC wizard maintenance manual (Google search) that will give you step by step instructions on how to disassemble it. Or sell it on eBay then use the money to buy a new one.
Hey guys,
Just bought a new Scandisk CL2 16gb to replace the 2gb which came with my phone.
When i try to boot with my new sd card i just get a error message:
"Storage card not working,
Your storage card has changed, is damaged, or is non-compliant."
Should i have done something to the sd card before inserting it? Already made a hard reset a couple of times.
When running WP7 on the HD2 the sd card must be in the phone prior to flashing the WP7 rom. Download a sd formatter, format the sd card, insert it in your HD2 then flash your WP7 rom. Now the phone should recognize the card.

Hi,
all I had to do was replace the card by an other one. restore factory settings by pressing volume + and -.
Then the new card was recognized
Got a 4gb sd card that got messed up trying to install bttf..
hypothetiically speaking,if i got mango working on another 8gb sd card and stick the 4gb in the phone will it recognise it? For me to activate storage unlock and will this recover my card?
Thanks
In my experience every time something is wrong with the card, the Mango will not boot beyond 'your card is not recognised' screen. So if you will install Mango with a different card and try to unlock the 4Gb one, you will not be able to. You need a card with original install on it in order to proceed, hence you will be able to unlock only the 8Gb card. I had the original install card gone off, so had it formatted in Nokia, but the phone refused to boot, even after the reset it requested. So my advise would be to format your 4Gb in a Nokia phone. I keep N95 just for that purpose.
