S.O.S. Card Export II! - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

Hi guys!
I'm using Card Export II on my Jam and it seems to wors fine but... what is the righ sequence to use Card Export?
I enabled card Export... I connecto via USB my Jam... I write some info on storage Card... I disable the USB drive from WinXp as it is a normal pen drive and when I put back my Jam in the PC, I can read the file but I can delete or write on it!
I have to make soft reset to restore the normal r/w method... :-(
Seems it goes in read only way but I can't understand why. :-(

Ho ho!
Tested it out here.
It doesn't matter whether you just unplug the device, or remove it properly, if you have "Protect MBR" checked in the options, then the second time you connect the device it will be in read only until you soft reset (or restart the software with a task manager).
If you uncheck "Protect MBR", then it works. Given that any protection sounds important, if you untick "Protect MBR", click ok, then retick it again, the next connection will be okay regardless.
Bug? *shrug* It's still pretty good.

I just tryed to uncheck the MBR flag but it doesn't works too!
I found the problem but I can't solve it! :-(
The problem is that when I unplug the USB the N of the Storage Card in the settings of the Card Export II goes from 1 to 7...
If I plug the USB with 7 storege card it doesn't works, if I make soft reset or just set 1 storege card in the settings it works fine!
booh! :-(

So that's why I'm getting 7 removeable devices when I plug it in! I just thought it was a bug, haha!

Have you installed the proggie externally? This was my prob. After installing internally, everything worked OK

ahhaha
This problem appears in incorrectly registered or hacked versions only. Be aware of using illegal versions due to possibility of civil and criminal penalties

installing movies??

I have a HERM 100 and need help installing movies or music in the phone. I have the activesync program and when I connect the usb it says i have to download the program. I already tried deleting and reinstalling the program but my phone still won't read it.
Is there any other options to install movies or music in my phone? Please help! Thanks!
if you are using a microSD card then all you have to do is use the adapter that came with the card and copy the movies/music onto the card from your PC then insert the card into your phone.
and if that doesnt work then make sure you have the "allow USB connections" box ticked in the connection settings on activesync. you may have to restart both your phone and your computer for the changes to take affect.

Corrupted SD Card

Hi,
What happened
Yesterday when I had more time I started installing some applications on my HTC Touch HD.
I installed:
1).NET Framework 3.5
2) Advanced Configuration
3) Total Commander
4) Gyrator 2
I had already installed IGO 8 a few months ago.
After installing Advanced configuration I tested the IGO and it was working, I had no problem.
However after I installed Gyrator 2 and with Gyrator 2 on I tried to start Igo8, the IGO8 didn't want to start. After further attempts and investigation I came to the conclusion that the SD Card is corrupted.
Symptoms of the SD Card(original one that came in the box with the device):
1)While reading it from PC only the root directory of the card is visible with all the folders inside but I can access only one folder out of 15. for the others I get an error, cannot read from the device...
2) From the HTC touch HD I can even enter all the folders but while accessing some files, not all of them, I get errors saying that the files could not be opened.
3) I had to do many restarts so only two times the first screen that you see after you power-on the device is the "Smart mobility" and then after a few seconds you get the details of the ROM and two other rows in the bottom right corner. So for two times the "Smart mobility was not centered" as well as the bottom right corrner data they were not at their position. However now after 5-10 more power-on power-off manipulation the first screen seems to be ok.
Possible causes as I see it are two:
1) Gyrator 2 and IGO8 do not lik eache other very much, and some how when IGO8 started maybe the orientation of the screen just changed from portrait to landscape. It is just a theory, as I'm not an expert I cannot say if it's correct or not.
2) After installing the Gyrator2 I have somehow unplugged the USB cable while the computer might still have had a connection to the PC. That's ulikelley because I allways do the "Remove USB device" before unplugging, but I did it so many times that I do not remember exactly that time. However I trust my instincts even though I cannot exclude the possibility of an error.
The cause 2) might be realated as well with the usual problem of choosing the action needed when you connect he HTC Touh HD trough the USB cable. It happened many times that an option is preselected(read the Storage card) but I want to actually synchronise the device with ActiveSync, so initially the PC opens the SD card as an external drive and then after I click on the phone to choose the ActiveSync connection it closes the external drive and makes the connection.
Is there a better way to choose between the modes of connectivity to PC, taking into account that when you want to install some software on the device you have to either copy the file on the device itself and start it there or install it on the PC and use ActiveSync to install it as well on the device.
My main question is related with the helthcheck of my HTC Touch HD.
a) Is there a risk that the internal built in flash storage of the device is corrputed as well? I have checked all the files almost with no problems of accessing any of them. It seems ok to me. The only thing that worries me a bit is the problem with the splash screen as I explained it under possible cause 2) which now doesn't seem to appear anymore.
b) is there any other part that I should verify to make sure that my device is ok.
c) Less important, if you could help me find out what happened to make sure that I won'trepeat it again and break the next SD Card.
d) Can I recover/repair the SD Card itself, the data that I had on were not very important I have them on my PC in proportion of 90%. I downloaded some tool from SanDisk called usb-test-tool.exe but it fails to see the card(I think the tool is not the right one), or I shouldn't even bother because there is a risk of having problems afterwards.
Most probably I'll have to buy another SDMicroCard I'll try to buy the same brand maybe for 16GB, I do not know the prices yet.
Sorry for the long pot, but I wanted to give allt he details.
Thanks for your support!
And now most probably I'll have to uninstall the applications that were installed on the SDCard, I hope it will work out and there will be no left-overs in registries or on the filesystem.
coincidence
well. Mine got bricked too yesterday. it was a 16GB sd-card. Only my phone can access it and the data is gone. Data was firts messed up (like chaotic named folders and files) and then disappeared. I can create new folders and files there but it is full of lost chains and clusters (found by mobile apps) and reports the same free space as before (40%) but there are no content visible. When I connect it to laptop either as an disk drive from mobile or directly with sd-adapter I get high cpu usage of interrupts and a frozen usb managment and need to restart.

Same happened to me with my 16gb Sandisk card.
Card reader said is was write protected and could not format using SDFormatter.
Solution after a search found on the Raphael forum was to download http://www.cnetx.com/format/download.asp and install to main memory.
Success !
Then I could read it and formatted again with SDFormatter
Hope this helps

Storage Card folder gone after ActiveSync connects

This morning I started to have strange problem ...
When I connects my HD to PC using USB cable, ActiveSync starts (in ActiveSync, not "Storage Card" mode) but ... in Resco Explorer my SD card folder is GONE
If I disconnect HD from PC and soft-reset, I'm able to see "\Storage Card" folder on HD. Connected through ActiveSync - it is gone again.
I did soft-reset, rebooted my PC - same thing.
Please, please, please help me.
depends how you connect to your PC - if you use the Activesync connection popup when you connect the usb then it should be there - if you use the Disk Drive popup it probably will not show.
untick the unnecessary folder file to sync
I'm using ActiveSync mode, not DiskDrive mode.
I'm only syncing Contacts and Calendar - as usual.
Any other ideas ?

Thanks for that thread. Currently I fixed the issue by inserting microSD into card reader, copy files to PC, formatting microSD it in my PC and copying files back. So far it works, but ... that is not good

OH... my Microdrive is GONE!

Dear All, please help me here...
today I try to copy a number of files into the MD of Athena... yet it hanged in the middle of the process....
Now... even I have tried formatted the harddrive... The file explorer still can't show the Microdrive..
What can I do now? Thanks...
try removing the battery and see how it goes. if the problem persists, sorry mate but you may have to do a hard reset.
hope that helps
Thanks.. but that doesn't work as well
In settings choose >microdrive>format my microdrive, if I remenber clearly when the drive is not found there should be an option >find microdrive or something, choosing that option softreset the device and find the drive for you.
If that doesnt work perhaps WM5torage may find it for you and then you could format it from your computer (remenber to choose the right drive, you dont want to format the SD card.
other than that you could try pocket mechanic or similar programs.

I would try the wm5stoage option first as doing the first will wipe all info on the drive.
cheers lakeman
also do a search for format options as there is an old thread that discusses this
It doesn't have that option.. when I try to format it... it says .. Microdrive can't be accessed
Sorry... mind directing me to that formatting MD post? I had done a search on it but hardly find related info...
Thanks truly lots
The best i can go is to bought back a drive call "mounted volumn" with about 3mb inside

goto start/settings/system/format microdrive.
in the screen that says format microdrive , click the down arrow and tap recover microdrive
It should prompt you to recover microdrive if it can't be found and warns that the data will be erased.
do a search in the athena forum for format microdrive and look for posts from eaglesteve
Sorry that I have ploughed throught posts to hunt for solution but still problem persist..
I have tried:
- WM5storage... Not able to detect the microdrive with or without WMDC
- Cardexport 3.12... The same
- Rom upgrade and downgrade... the same..
- setting\format microdrive.... only wm6 has the option of recovering the MD... so I tried.. but still.. not useful after the reset..
Please help or I will have to hv the serviceman ready... Thanks anyway
Try pocket mechanic maybe it can see it , you can try it free for a period, other than that....., drives do fail, my previous athena had a MD solid as a rock, my current athena MD is positively crap to the point that I do not use it and I tried everything.
Good luck
Even Pocket Mech. doesn't see it... I have already given up hope and rely on the SD only
Microdrive present but can't see 8Gb
I can't see 8Gb or even 7.xGb anywhere on my Athena. Where should I see it? Can anyone help me, Thanks Derek
Start/Settings/System/Memory/Storage Card/MicroDrive
This should show you if it's recognized and usage,
if it's there.
Thanks
That's what I thought - so what's the problem if it only shows something like 80Mb in the Microdrive, please? Regards, Derek
I've had mine flash in and out of existance, try this...
Sync with your pc via ActiveSYNC, click on Explore (on the pc Activesync), then My device, then if showed the Microdrive, if so click on it and it re-populates the directory. Don't know how serious your problem is but it worked for me.
Good luck.
do you change sync settings?
if you do you should change it to option one.
Start>Settings>Connections>USB to PC
if you don,t try this change from option 1 to 2 and again from 2 to 1.
hope it works.
Same problem... but solved!
Hello,
I just resetted my Ameo (Athena 100 with WM6 by T-Mobile, Germany) using the "Wipe device" function of "Sparus EveryWAN Remote Support Personal Edition" and in result I had neither access to the 8GB Microdrive nor to my 2GB MicroSD Card.
Both storage devices weren't shown in Sparus EveraWAN ... nor in WinCE Plugin for Total Commander, nor anyplace in the device itself (e.g. Memory settings, Explorer, ...)
The SD Card could be brought back by formatting it in an SD Card reader on my Win PC. The MD couldn't be formatted by the internal tools of the Athena. Neither a "secure delete" nor a factory default reset could help it.
I wanted to export the MD with WM5torage v1.90 but it even didn't start.
Solution:
I did as explained above: Control Panel>System>Format MicroDrive->"recover MicroDrive", followed the procedure (reboot and accepting the formatting).
The device rebooted, asked again to reformat, and then both my SD card and the MD returned back.
The point of data loss was no concern to me, because I just backed up all data and my intention WAS to RESET all storage.
Hope, nobody else needs this procedure, too.
Good luck! forcemaker

I would suggest it is time to do a hard reset which will wipe all the data from your machine.
Good luck!

Problem: sd card doesn't mounted

Since from the first use of device I'm not be able to access contents of sd card from pc. I have installed the latest version of htc sync available in htc' s site.
When I check the option disk drive from USB to Pc, I can see the new removable disk in file explorer, but I cannot access to this disk.
I always get the error: insert a disk to the drive M (translated to english cause my pc have greek locale).
Have anyone else this issue?
Have you tried to read the SD with an external reader?
I'm also had this problem.
I did simply repair the HTC Sync.
Restart the pc.
And then connected worked.
Some how the problem solved. I tried a lot connect disconnect, close and open htc sync, and suddently I get access to my sd card. I didn't do something different from the other tries, but this time works. First time after a lot of tries and reboots the last couple of days.
Connecting as Disk Drive is not accepted easily. I think it is always required to activate USB debugging mode first. So, simple way is first choose HTC sync mode on the phone, after it get connected change to Disk Drive mode. It works..
Thanks for the tips.
Sometimes don't work though. Needed to connect/disconnect several times to work properly. Sometimes when I connect the cable, the popup window doesn't appear(I have checked the asking option) and sync doesn't work too. And after some tries when connect the cable the popup appears and work both sync or disk option.
faulty cable perhaps?
I'm still using the charger and USB cable from my i-Mate K-Jam - works like a charm!
