Greets.
Is it possible to do a little app that turns off the SD Card drive, just like when the battery is low? Does it alreay exists?
The usage for that is to do a universal SD card "radio off". New cards such as spectek SDW-821 and my PlusCom 11g does not support turning the radio off without taking the card off the slot, but I fear that by taking it off lots of times it will break the socket.
Thanks in advance.
One was done by Buzzlightyear some time back. Search for BLmanualSD in this forum or on buzzdev.net .
I have it, but want you to see the original links so you can make further references there I hope this approach is acceptable to you
Thanks.
I will take a look.
*EDIT* It does not work. But It was what I was looking for. Some app to shut down the SDIO slot.

Ask Buzz. Maybe he can modify it for you. It was written about 2 years ago.

I saw a solution @ http://tw.page.bid.yahoo.com/tw/auction/1130284105?aucview=search
The SD WiFi card can build inside XDA II.
But I want to know detail. Does anyone know how to make it?
Hmm, that's very interesting!
Please, post more details here if you find them.
@slash_tsai
I can't read taiwanees but if you're able to read a it can you translate what this guy is offering.
If I'm not wrong he is selling something about this solution. Can you tell what he is selling and for how much!
thanks
Has anyone tried
contacting the guy/gal?
I don't speak a word of ".tw", so I can't do it..
He/she might be able to share some info on the thingy..?
Just my two cents..
Babelfish is your friend ;-)
XDA O2 changes the contents net card.. May not need the SD memory card the inconvenient...... SD memory card which exchanges with the non- wire card trades all to be allowed forever to miss in SD inserts in Cao. Also may wireless access the net. Does not have to add any switch to be allowed to use the SD card withdrawal insertion to make the cut to have to use the SD memory card. Or in constructs non- wire card............. Let your gate not need the belt not to need to exchange trades the SD memory card with the non- wire card between... Also cannot because the non- wire card reveal not to be convenient.... Supplies for oneself the SDIO non- wire card 3000... Not non- wire card 6300.... The reequipment guarantees the solid.. 3 month
Scorch.
Babelfish has go to be SMOKING something heavy! ;-)

Looks like you have to open the device to install the "thingy"?! :shock:
[EDIT]
Oh! And I allso found:
"Delivers in person.. Because must reequip.. Must bringing machine come"
YIKES!
Have found this guys yahoo messenger address.
at this time (15:14 PM GMT+1) he his online and is talking. I'll put his answers here after he finishes.
Thus Far:
henlee0638 : HI
hatamat: About your solution for building in SDIO WIFI in the XDA II
henlee0638 : I BUILT IN MYSELF
hatamat: So you don't sell info and chips etc?
henlee0638 : + micro control to switch sdio / sd card
henlee0638 : you mean ? from where you are
hatamat: The netherlands
hatamat: Well what I mean is: Is it possible to share the knowledge and a instruction guide so I can built my own?
hatamat: If nessary I'll pay for the instructions
henlee0638 : can ican share

Lookin' good!
I might have to dig up my old soldering iron again..
hhhmmmm.... The only reason I am waiting for the XDA3 is for the internal wifi, if this works it would be totaly cool!.............
Great! Can't wait to get instructions!
... and waiting.... and waiting... and then some waiting.... :wink:
... In the meantime you can learn some basic skills to open your XDAII. :lol: Check my guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8525&highlight=i+fixed+speaker+problem
Sounds good too
Only reason for XDA 3, and I 've got a spare sdio wifi card...
See my post with pictures towards the bottom of the following thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=10078&highli
It is very possible to hide the SD WiFi card in (well almost...) the XDA2. Short of getting it operational, this solution I find is very usable!
Sorry for this late reply but this was not because I didn't post but the guy who would supply the info let me waiting.
After long wait he has decided not to share or sell the instructions.
For me this case is still not closed but I think it is gonna take longer to aquire the info.

Hi.
I have tried to make two different WiFi SDIO cards work in my Qtek S100 now with no success despite following all advice on these forums and trying many different drivers etc.
My suspicion is that my S100 has a hardware fault and cannot read from the SDIO slot (although MMC cards work fine).
Does anyone know whether there is a way of checking this hypothesis?
Cheers,
Tom
Solved it!
The extra pin that SDIO uses had got pushed down. Use of cocktail stick to bend it back again solved the problem...
The answer to "is there an SDIO test" is yes - insert the card when the device is on standby. If the screen lights up, it's seeing the card.
Tom
Hmm... I sort of have the same problem. I got my new Wifi card today (PocketGear, or Spected mini card) and used it for 10 minutes. I took it out to replace my SD card, the screen lit up but nothing is recognising. Storage card doesn't appear and phone things nothing's connected when the Wifi card is in. Not good!
I'll check the pins when I get home, but since the screen is lighting up I'm not sure about that,
Any ideas, people?
Ok, well it seems it's fixed. 3 hard resets in 10 minutes fixed the issue! Good ole Microsoft, making nice and sturdy operating systems!
Hi
does anyone has or knows a sd card which is wifi card and memory? i don't want to switch the sd cards all the time :|
thanks

Unfortunately, the Sandisk offering is the ONLY ONE IN EXISTANCE.
It's also EOL'd - you can't buy it anywhere anymore other than Ebay.
Nobody seems to care about SDIO these days, huh. -.-

Well I looked further into the issue, and apparently SanDisk discontinued it because it suffered from too many various errors . Guess it was having teething problems, being the first of its kind. Lets hope someone fills this void, because I want one!
Sandisk wifi is extremly slow.............realllllly slooooooow.
So forget it. You can connect usb flash drive via usb and use sd for wifi if really need. Or flash your jam with BigStorage and use internal 27 mb.
Or even 2.5'' harddisk.
Thanx

It's not. Magician unfortunately lacks USB host capabilities - in short, it lacks the drivers required to control an external device, such as a hard drive or keyboard...
Which sucks. Bluetooth GPS and Infrared Keyboards really do suck up battery life.
At Ebay there are a lot of SD Wifi Cards available. Is any of them good ? I want to use it with my Qtek S100.
i have a spectek sd wifi card which works well in my qtek s110.
I've had the SanDisk 256Mb WiFi card for way over a year now and have not had any problems. The only problems I had were the installation but after searching for updated drivers which were like Gold dust as this card is no longer manufactured I located some and it's been great since. I've set the WiFi connection on the Magician to have the "best battery life" and the speed doesn't seem to be a factor.
Maybe I've been lucky!
Hello guys, i've just bought a vodafone v1605 Hermes, after having a bit of fun with it i've bought a microSDHD 4GB cause i wished to install TomTom...
I've inserted it, and after going on settings/memory or file explorer, i couldn't see the extended memory =(
I've tried shutting down the device and turning it back on... but nothing to do... (i've also tried to remove and insert it several times)
After that i've tested it with the adaptor on my PC and it works! =/
Strange thing...
Than i remembered that somewhere someone was talking about the fact that it's needed WM6 to see microSDHD on the device, so i've installed blacksatin, last radio version and last spl but nothing to do... my device can't see the SD card... =(
Now i'm guessing if it may be possible that my device microSD reader is broken... but i really hope not!
Has someone else had this issue?
Is there something i forgot to do? some setting, or something to flash on the device?
Just to assure that it isn't a microSD reader problem, today i'm going to buy a microSD 256mb, let's hope it will see the extended memory card..
All suggestions are appreciated... Thanks!
I had a similar problem after first buying a micro sd. The cause is from pushing it too far in. The hermes micro sd slot is deeper than the sd card is supposed to be put in (by about 1mm). If you insert it until around half a mm is still pertruding it should be ok.
Thanks for the suggestion OdeeanRDeathshead i've tried also this solution... but nothing to do... =(
Just for curiosity, when i insert the microSD and i'm in memory page, should i see it immediatly if the device recognize it? or i've to reboot or "reload" the page?
Ty!
Ok, yesterday afternoon i went to buy a new microSD 1Gb (great offer, i've paid it 13 euros for a promotion) and it works without any problem... so now i really can't understand why the device can't read the 4Gb...
It is an orginal SanDisk MicroSDHC 4Gb... =/
My only doubt is that the device can't recognize this high capacity SD... =(
Am sure I read elsewhere that you need to format the card in a PC card reader (SDHC capable) and then put it in the phone and format again - or something like that.

thanks crazyC!
MicroSDHC cards are not compatible with some WM5 ROMS. What ROM are you using?
Because windows says that hard disk is protected against writing.
Any help please?
This is not related to the HD2 but to the SD itself, consult its manufacturer.
^That was a semi-joke.
But seriously, just format your sdcard and try again, or just buy a new one.

It says: The memory card is write-protected. Please release the write protect switch.

Then please "release the write protect switch" on the adaptor
Was your sdcard working prior to using it for Android? What was it used for before?

How to do it?
Yes, my SD card always worked with no trouble before.
are you using a Micro-SD adapter or do you put the Micro-SD directly to the Card reader?
I know years ago some of the small stuff like this seemed to get very annoying to figure out on my own. Oh and how to copy to the root of my SD card was a problem at 1st too lol.
The answer is rather simply though.There is a small lever on the adapter your using. Adjust it so it does not say write protected and you should be fine.
The adapter can get accidentally pushed in (very easily I might add) when inserting your card in and out of the computer or reader. This is why it could of been fine last week and now has caused some problems. Once you see it you'll understand why and how easy it is to overlook.
