SD Card Erasures

Just checking to see which people have had sd card erasures with which ROM.
I have had sd card erasures with 4.00.05.

I have had erasures on the 4.00.05 and 4.00.10 ROMs. So far (knock on wood) I haven't had any problems with the 4.00.16.
That being said, it seems like when it is about to erase your card, everthing gets really slow and it stops responding. I've had that start to happen once or twice under the new rom, but I've popped out the card and done a soft reset. Put the card back in after that and all is well.
I am not sure if it really was getting ready to self destruct, but it was slowing down.

Had no problems under 4.00.05 and 4.00.10 This morning my sd card was erased under 4.00.16 Have just restored my data and locked the damn sd card.

SD Erasure
I have had mine erase under 4.00.5 but so far so good under 4.00.11.

Just idea: Is anybody have "spontaneous SD erasure" problem wit NO SUNDISK SDs ?
:wink:

I had "spontaneous SD erasure" with Panasonic SD
ROM v. 4.00.05 :twisted:
And since moment upgraded ROM 4.00.16 not yet :roll:

SD Erasure
It's gone again for me....under 4.0.11 this time....am going to try swapping from a 256 card to 128 today to see if it makes a difference....Any else had any revelations as to what's causing it?

SD Erasure
Same problem today with Sandisk 128 meg SD Card.

Hmmm..its strange.
I never have a problem with any of the 1.2 4.05 and 4.11 roms.
Being a 32MB unit I have virtually no prog installed in main memory but the kitchen 4.11 is fully packed until 2k remaining.
Could it be one of the programs in your machine?
Try not installing any.
Anyone else with no problem? Please speak up.

Erasures under 4.00.05, 4.00.11
128MB MMC Card (MMC Association)

FYI, I've been running rom version 4.00.16 (plain vanilla version, no rom kitchen additions), with a minimal number of programs installed for a couple weeks now. No SD losses yet. I am thinking there must still be some software that's not compatible with WM 2003 that's causing the problems for people.

Another problem - can't format any card under WM2003... I thought that it was caused by FlashFormat (I thought it's not compatible with WM2003). But with the new version of FlashFormat for WM2003 the same problem... Has anyone this problem too?

Hmmm can't say that I've actually tried to format a card under 2003. I always use my card reader for that.

Today I have "spontaneous SD erasure" with Panasonic SD 256MB
ROM version. 4.00.16 -Crazy
:twisted:
:twisted: :twisted:
Who can find this bug???
Are you a hero :?:
Waiting for Developers :wink: or somebody :?:
Thank,

Yesterday again... And today again! That's impossible! But I've found something that may be interresting. So I have a question - do you remember if you have performed a soft reset at the day the card was erasured?
Because - I have... And it looked like the system boot last longer before I found the card is erasured...
What about the others?

QUESTION FOR VAN:
------------------------
Do you have a plain version like GregP74 or you have cooked your own in the kitchen?

from the J. kitchen
10 days no problem :shock:
Today try to upgrade clean ROM 4.00.16 but kitchen is not working now :?: :?: :?:

Hm, I want to detect where the problem can be... Can all of us build a list of apps you have included to your ROMs?
Maybe some application is not really fully cpmpatible with WM2003, as someone said...
Thank you

@wuffi
Maybe you are right
I made last soft reset and It seems little bit longer than normal

I had "spontaneous SD erasure" with Toshiba SD
ROM v. 4.00.11 (7-10 days after ROM upgrade).

How to upgrade T-mobile wothout SD card ?

How to upgrade T-mobile wit bootloader ? I haven't any prog, and haven't SD card. T-mobile cannot accept Programme A "connection error"

You have nothing, you do nothing!
or ask an expert to do it without risk!

Ok, one years ago I upgraded this O2 with bootloader + serial cable. Now, I upgrade to t-mobile firmware and can not accept programme A. I cant remember what is the name of software (serial upgrede,with bootloader)

Ok first go to Start, Settings, System, Device Information and post whats listed as this will give us some insight in to your device.

Your XDA version cannot work with programm A.
you need buy SD card and SD card writer!
You don't have these things, so you cannot do anything! :roll:

but a usb sdwriter really dont cost all that much
nor does a sd flash card unless you want it to be bigger then 128MB

Ohh ****.... so, it is impossible to flash with serial or usb cable and bootloader 5.14 ? Yesterday it was a PW10A1.....

anyone have 3.12 or earlier PPC version in .nbf file ? I have 32 mb SD card, but 3.17 is bigger than 32 mb. (32.2)

I have 3.08.09 ROM!

You must use TMO2003.exe update program.
When it run, it will install all file on c:\program files\ruu\..
It will check rom version on c:\program files\ruu\english\NK.nb1
When it chech rom pass copy your own rom(o2 or other ....) to c:\program files\ruu\english\ then press Next.
When you finish rom update you must run o2 program B to update your radio stack.

floyd007,
Funny you should mention that. I have a Sandisc 1G card and when I try to do any removal or adding to when its in my card reader it says the same media is write protected when I know that it isnt. When I stick er in my Jam its fine, Whats Up! :shock:

I´ll send you mine and get yours?
perhaps we should try a special format solution but wich one?

If it is an sd card and the write protect is in the off position, then try sticking a piece of tape over the gap where the switch is on the card to completely cover it.

thanks cruisin,
I tried this, but no success!
tried new card export II to simulate storage mass - no success!
I think I must send the magician to service!

I had the same trouble with my Compact and it was solved after removing ActiveSync

SD card issues and a couple of other questions

Hello,
1. I keep having the same issue with my I-mate Jam (originally purchased from Orange Israel). Every now and then I get a prompt saying the SD card is unreadable and whether I wish to format it. The data on the card itself remains intact and perfectly readable. Is there any known solution to this? The SD card is a Kingston 512Mb standard SD.
2. I wish to purchase a larger SD card. Any known size limit to those? I've bumped into 4 GB cards. Are these supported by the magician?
3. I wish to clear the call duration counters, any known way to do this?
Thank you in advance,
Lior, Israel.

I've always used SanDisk standard cards without any problems and currently using a 2GB where all the TT West EU and USA+Canada maps are installed. Ultra II or III are just a waste of money since there is no speed gain in the Magician. Some users have tried 4GB RS MMC cards but there's are mix feelings. I suggest you search for the thread and read through it.

Here's another thread regarding SD Card size/formatting issues: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282104
I have seen another posting on resetting call duration - search for it, and you'll find it. I think it involves HEX editing, and the instructions may have been for a specific phone model.
