hi, i already watched this topic but my PC doesn't recognize
the wallaby by activesync and neither the xda tools is able to write on the sd card.
yesterday i read the sd only using xdarit but - strange
to say - that same program wasn't able to write on these sd!
May be the sd reader is usb 2.0 or the sd is locked because has already been written???
thanks jB

hallo,
i have a problem to access the SD card with windows xp through the cardreader. the Qtek 2020 recognizes the card normally. any idea to repair the card ?
regards and thanks for help
There must be something wrong with your USB card reader drivers. Try to get the latest drivers from the net.
What is your file system type??? FAT32 / FAT 16 FAT 12 ???
I have a SD reader on my laptop, and when i insert the card, it says "disk is not formatted. would u like to format?"
i click yes, then "this disk cannot be formatted"
yes write protection is off

Plez help me to solve the problem
ps: I have tried Pocket Mechenic..but the problem still remains.
Try this!
hello. If you are trying to format your sd card with window xp or windows XX. you will never use your sd card in any camera, pocket pc, palm again.
If your computer can not format your sd card, there are 2 possibilities:
1. Your memory chip is damaged
2. You can try to creat boot image using XDA tool and put it in to your XDA. Finally create a boot image. Now. Romve the sd card and plug it in the XDA again, your XDA will ask you to format it. IF not, your memory chip is damaged. Good luck!
i had issues with not being able to format my sd card under winXP
but i could format it with pocket mechanics just fine dident need to format from the bootloader at all

Thanks but that's not what I means.
In my case, when I format the SD card (quick format) by the laptop, it works with only the laptop. When I format the SD card (quick format) by my pocket PC, it works with only my pocket PC.
The SD card works pretty well separately on each device.
The 2 devices cannot use the same fomarted SD card.
That's the problem.
use pocket mechanics to see what the xda format the sd card to fat32 fat16 or ???
see what the laptop format the card to fat32 or fat16 or NTFS
the xda cant real ntfs at all
and some sd readers have problems with fat16 or 32 i forget

..but it's still in trouble
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.
I have a Wallaby that I have just bought, I decided to upgrade it to Windows Mobile so that it would work with Vista, or so I thought.....
I went to the ROM Kitchen and built a WM2003Final with 4.0.12 (or thereabouts) EXE rom.
Connected my wallaby and it failed during the upgrade, no issue, my laptop has an SDCard reader/writer on it so thats cool I can upgrade that way.
Got OSImage and XDATools and an NB1/NBF image (NBF just in case), however, I find that OSImage wont find anything more than 7.58mb on my SDCard (its a 256mb card and has worked as such since the day and hour I got it)
At the moment I have a very nice brick, any tips folks?
Sometimes the internal SD-Card Writer causes Problems. Do you have the possibility to use an external SD-Card Writer?
Stefan
Hi Stefan
I have bought off eBay the following
1 x 64mb SDCard
1 x External Card Reader/Writer
I will use my other laptop which has XP on it to read/write the ROM onto the SDCard.
HOPEFULLY I can debrick it!

Windows Phone 7 formatted the SD cart as FAT16, MAGLDR can't read this format.
You can reformated with a SD card reader and a any partion manager program, format as FAT32 and MAGDLR will work.

If they used the XBmod-Yuki 7720 ready ROM rather than HD2Owner's V1.20 WP7 Build 7720 [test ver. 1] their SD cards were formatted with Microsoft's WP7 proprietary SD format. This explains why their SD card readers could not recognize their cards. This by now is a well known issue, and therefore the search link I gave above may be quite useful.
I Had Same issue. just solved it now, i had to re-flash with the old rom with memory card inserted, installed DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab which unlockes your SD card again, unlocked my memory card, then switch off, put into USB flasher mode and reflash with 7720 image and now unlocked SD card, detects ok again now all working
got both my SD cards working now with 7720, had to update phone to 7392 first with one card before i could unlock it. the previous rom drivers were no good with some cards.
Couldnt use or detect the card with any partitioning or Formatting software until i unlocked it in Windows phone 7 with DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab
hope this helps some others?
