No,Its just happend again about the 5th time now where its just completely or partly wiped my 1gig lexar sd card,its a good job i backed up but it shouldent keep doing this,What do u guys think could be the problem?
This is the only thing i dont like about the jam everything else is great this would probably be a reason for mr selling it and getting rid as its happening too often,Do you think it could be imates rom as ive thought about updating to qteks 1.11 or software or hardware fault (sd) any ideas would be great,It just stops this phone from being perfect for me
Same thing is happening with me. also 1 GB A-Data Sd-card
frustrating......
never happened with 128MB card before....
anyone has any cure????
happend to me in my 512MB card... but it happened when i installed a program called RSS Feeder or something like that... everything was gone from the card except for a 2 folders which had many sub-folders....... and found a file which i couldn't delete and the size of that file was about 1.9GB yes GB not MB and had weird characters in the name... it was weird
that's scary as it happened to me once but I thought it was a fluke. This means that I have to fine a place to back it up.
Who Has Pocket Mechanic Installed? i beleieve it might be the reason. check out pleasE!
i don't have it on my jam
Same thing happens to me after transfering large files using my card reader. As soon as I insert my 1Gb SD card back in my s100 the file names juble up and I can't view the contents of the folder.
This happened even before i installed pocket Mechanic.
Transfering the same files through activesync does not seem to make the problem.
I have it installed. It aint the problem.
Happend 3 times on old Rom versions..
never happend on Anasky Patched Qtek FI 1.11 .. .. .. yet..
I use a the Blue SD 1GB SanDisk card.
Keep the SD backed up on the PC have been a must after all wipes.. scary thing.
Hope its gone.. If not.. Ill get another SD card and try that out..
Anyone "Heavy SD User" here, that uses another brand and never experience this??
Please share what card U uses..
Best Regards Carlis
Hmm, I using Lexar SD 1 Gb in my O2 mini, and quite heavy user since have mini (small internal memory). I store my games, video, Mp3 and document files. Before in mini (i bought mini in February), i used in my XDA II, So far no problem.
Tips : analyst and defrag when needed using sd card reader.
I had this problem too
Hi,
I had the same problem using a blue 1GB SD card from Sandisk together with an IPAQ 4150. The problem was hard to track down. I had the feeling that it happened when I tranfered large files with my card reader and when the card is almost full.
I even contacted HP support but they did not have any other reports like this.
I then ordered another card reader (the oval one from Retec) because I suspected thr card reader to be the one to blame. it happened again with the new card reader.
The file names were all scrambled and the explorer showed files larger than the card was. Some of them could not even be deleted.
I finally bought another card reader (Hama USB 2.0 Card Reader 9in1 Part no. 47100). This fixed all problems I had with the IPAQ / 1GB sandisk combination.
I have switched to an MDA compact a few days ago and I hope that the problem that you are experiencing is related to your card reader.
I am almost certain it is.
Is there anyone having this problem who has never used the SD card in a card ready - I think not.
Try this registry patch
I did it & now I no longer suffer any SD card wipping 8)
Great thanks alot ill give it a try,did u make the patch?
No, its just a .reg file, you can run it using Resco Explorer 2003 or any other programs, or even you can enter the registry keys manually..
ezzkht, thanks!!!
what does it actually do?
Referring to what spadb said in the past forums, there is no key referring to FAT file system for the SD Card, which both the XDA I & XDA II have.
So, this registry hack will add the reference to these DLLs (which really reside in the Windows folder, but not referenced by anything!)
Plz refer to this post for more info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7230
All the thanks go to spadb, not me!! I just made this registry file out of what he'd discovered. :wink:
thanks man
no problem dude,,, I hope this file will solve the SD wipping problem
If anyone has lost his data, I can help to get this data back again using undelete..
Ive just been having this problem recently and applied the reg fix, only the first key, is this enough and do I also need to format my sd card with the FAT32 instead of FAT16? Many thanks
The most important keys are:
"BlockTransferSize"=dword:00000028
"FSD"="FATFSD.DLL"
But i recommend to add the whole keys.
Use Resco Explorer 2003 (even the trial version works)
With a single clic, you will have this key imported.

Hi there, a rant a question, but i will try and keep it brief,
First me rant, why oh why when an ipod can carry 40gig of data in its tiny little space, have HTC not taken the concept behind their Hard Drive systems, I would NOT complain for a second if my pda got half a cm or a cm thicker but gained a gig memory, or more,
And question, I use a Hymalaya, (m1000) i have been interested in the Universal and the WM5 upgrade, My sister has just got one and i have had an explore of hers, whats with the 44meg for programs, i struggle with the xda getting over clogged, is this a problem for the Universal, i can only see that iam going to be more limited to what i can install on the Universal than iam on the hymalaya, this has stopped me upgrading,
Looking to confirm if iam right or seriously needing to revise more.
Thanks Guys, sorry the brief idea went,
OK, for a start, an Ipod uses a mini harddrive, which would NOT be suitable for a PPC (in my opinion, its not suitable for a music player) as they are so fragile. Also, a hard drive chews power, alot more than flash memory.
The approach adopted with most PPCs is to use an exteral storage card, which you install your programs onto.
WM5 uses a different method of storing data to previous versions. It uses RAM to run programs, and it uses ROM for persistent storage (e.g. installed programs).
My advice, get yourself a 1gb sd card (~£42) and install your programs onto that.
I have got a 1gig SD in my M1000, but have refused to install programs to the sd card because of crashing it its removed, (sdio wifi card in use as well) and the time factor for the device to have to access the sd card for system files,
take it this is the way forward for the wm5 devices
Yeah have to agree with you on the ipod thing, like i say, was just a rant, coincidentially, less than 10 minutes after a hard reset cos it all got a bit much for it,
Think iam going to try installing to the mmc card and see how stable it is,
Thanks heliosfa
Hello guys, how do i remove the clearvue suite including clearvue pdf and clearvue ppt from my o2 xda IIi ? and other applications that i dont need. i wish to remove all the applications and install just tomtom on the device, this will make tomtom more stable as at the moment it just keeps exiting to the today screen.

ph gosh, i've been trying for a year almost. i've been trying with tomtom 6, i downloaded like 6 different ones all from different sites. I then had the thought 'maybe tomtom 6 uses more memory than tomtom 5' so i downloaded many versions of tomtom 5 too, but same result, Then i was borrowing my mates tomtom 910, i got the smart idea of copying his memory card, put it directly into my xda IIi and it worked BUT same way as all the others, crashes back to the today screen. somtimes with the error message 'data type misalignment' or 'memory access violation'
Last night i finally found out how to 'cook' roms, so i downloaded a custom rom, with all the o2 stuff stripped out, and the camera fixes with new bluetooth and radio versions.
result - same.
then i worked out how to remove the clearvue suit completley, myself!
and the outcome - same!!!! it still crashes back just like first time.
i think there is one last thing to try, to get a faster sd card, ive been using a 1GB Kingston SD, 2GB Sandisk Mini SD with adapter, 1 GB sandisk MiniSD with adapter, 512MB Sandisk transfalash with adapter, i've heard, well read, that transcend 80x cards do the magic, as it can read and write information much faster, therefore using less system memory/ram. im going to buy a 2GB transcend 150x from the shop on friday and this will be my final attempt. if it happens again, then im gona throw this junk out of my window, run outside, then run it over, reverse, and run it over again....
sorry, its just i spent too much time on this thing to work.
im getting the feeling that its the xda IIi that is faulty? as tomtom worked perfectly on my nokia n80 which i replaced with this xda so i can get touch screen!
hope you have fun, i have only ever had one version of both 5-6 they both run perfectly from a cheapo 512mb card and a cheap 2gb kingston card the cards i have are nothing special. think the 2gb was £12.99 from play.com
you using original versions or *coughcrackcedcough*,you are installing them correctly by replacing the files and suck, also you are using the correct maps for the version?.
i am runing sbp pocket plus and clock at the same time, no probs on my xda2i or my dads xda2.

How or what did you do too remove the clearvue files??
By deleting clearvue from a custom rom & then cook the rom back I guess?
Hi,
I've read some posts regarding this issue but I was unable to find if there's already a definite solution to the memory card corruption on P3600.
Can anyone update me about that, please?
I have a 2 GB A-Data Super 80X mini SD that worked fine for 2 years since I bought this HTC. 2 months ago I sent it to warranty for exchange of the peeling covers and they also updated the WM5 ROM. After that I took some photos and used the card on the PC to save a few Tom-Tom updates and 2 weeks later Tom-Tom complained that it couldn’t find any voices. When I opened File Explorer there it was, the funny characters replaced a few folders. Before that I was using the first Portuguese official ROM that activated the GPS.
Tips and tricks I've already found around here:
To workaround the problem you can set the device to turn itself off after 1 minute in the power options, then let the device turn itself off instead of pressing the power button.
Install WM6 - Is this confirmed to solve the problem?
Memory performance tweaks-File system cache is too big, there could be some problems with your storage card, so decrease your file system cache - Is this confirmed to solve the problem forever?
As long as I copy files to/from the card using an external card reader (and not via active sync), I have no problems. - It is slower but if this works I can live with it.
Soft-reset - This didn't work for me.
Thats the one thing i hate about my trinity. I haven't got a card reader, so everything gets sent via activesync. Unfortunately anything above 15mb just crashes the card and i have to soft reset and hopefully delete the files on there.
The only solution i have found that (sometimes) works is transfering over wi-fi.
I have got a corruption problem as well. I installed a game that failed but after soft resetting i was left with files i couldn't delete, but i dont want to format yet as tomtom and other larger files can be tedious transfering over wifi.
I would like to know if there is a way to get rid of this without formatting, and why activesync crashes at 15mb
After installing a WM6.5 ROM and formating the card this problem never appeared again. The 2gb mini SD card is working as it should work without any extra tweaks or drivers.
But now I have a spare micro SDHC of 4gb and will buy a mini sd adapter to upgrade my 2gb card on trinity. I'll post my experience with the 4gb card after testing it exaustively.
For people that are having issues with the SD card on WM5, maybe its a good idea to try some alternate drivers like these:

this is the second unit (first replaced under insurance) that is slow
very slow.
in touch flow music player, it takes 45seconds + to play music
and in this time the unit will not respond to anything.
also now tomtom can't see the gps aerial, until i reboot and update quick gps.
i'm getting really ******** with the HD, and if you guys can't help i'm going back to my nokia n73
Thanks in advance
TC,
Flash a custom ROM if you want a stable and smooth performance.
You won't regret it
Cheers.

Problems you describe should not occur even with stock rom. Sounds like something is wrong with your device. Have you recently tried changing anything, i.e. a new custom rom, radio etc etc?
not changed anything on the unit.
it has standard orange rom, and has never been changed.
this is the second HD with this problem.
i was thinking it might just be Orange have made a mess of it!!!
tried new roms etc on the first one. still no better.
so i rang orange and they changed it.. but this new one is just the same
in fact its worse!!!!!

Something is seriously amiss with your device. I'd advise you to backup whatever you need and then do a hardreset if you want to keep your current rom, or try a custom rom.
Whilst I can't speak for the Touch HD specifically, this would be far from the first time Orange (or any other network for that matter) had screwed up a phone's software by way of their branding.
The best thing you can do is try replacing the ROM with an un-Orange-ified one.
I got a similar experience, and I installed the latest stock ROM from HTC using USPL. (RUU_BlackStone_HTC_Europe_1.56.401.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe)
It was pretty easy (It took me about 15 min to flash the ROM) and it was worth.
the only pain was to reconfigure all your applications, but it depends on how many you have added.
TomTom is working perfectly.
can anyone recomend a ROM & Radio to flash to a HD on UK orange?

Hey Mate,
I had experienced similar issues with the stock Telstra branded ROM, I am now using Windows 6.5.1 (Build 230XX) on my mobile which has a much better touch user interface to WM 6.1. 6.5.1 would be a little less stable than 6.5 (Build 218xx).
[23/10/09] XannyTechROM GRID LEO 1.9 Latest Leo (WM 21870.5.0.70)
[16.10.09] MaryOne v0.05☻Build 23071☻Leo 1.28☻[MANILA 1920xx]☻
Are 2 great Newer ROMS
I'd advise you to check the file system of your memory card.
I had a similar issue where pocket player was taking minutes to start up, device was hanging, etc.
The disk check found and corrected a number of errors and everything is working normally since then,
Just connect the phone as a disk drive to the pc and run a disk check.
ya just before i mentioned this thing in somewhere else on forum orange provider htc touch hd is crap i dont know what hey have done with it but it was seriously lagging then my one of vodafone....... even touch flow 3d doesnot work good enough.
i am saying this having experience of my bros mobile.of orange network
thanks god vodafone saved me. though htc touch hd 2 is giving me greed...

Definately sounds like the problems you can be having with messed up SD card. I had similar experience, so try removing the memory card first and if this does not help - hard reset (could be some bad application you installed) or new ROM. Plenty of them around here most of them pretty good.
what id do is the following:
grab http://www.business.orange.co.uk/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Business&cid=1135315301990&c=OUKPage&rootid=1130996672026&roottype=NavMenuItem&extarg1=1044137233185&extarg2=HTC+Touch+HD%E2%84%A2&extarg4=select
remove sim + SD card
hard-reset & let it configure
connect to pc (activesync) and run orange's latest RUU
allow to configure
test your issues to see if their resolved
if fixed, re-insert sim+SD card
SD card has various ways todo it. i just connect phone to pc, use 'storage card' option for conneciton type, then format as the lowest format (fat preferably, but usually fat32. NTFS has issues according to many, i havent tried)
i havent tested the mp3 playback on my HD (dont use it), but i've found too many issues with cooked roms i've now reverted back to shipping ROM's just to get a 100% working reliable phone.
ime cooked roms all have one of the following wrong with them:
- beta release software causing instability
- slow performance
- buggy features (Dutty's Leo R6 has bluetooth issues)
that said, there is a ton of reasons to go with cooked roms, just the con's outweigh the pro's for me.
