It's been a while since this one came up - see workaround here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276098
and you can use the google sticky post search function to search for msmetadata.
There is a different and better solution for those who use windows vista when syncing which I can post links to if needs be.

WHeres best to install progs. Card or Phone ??

I got an XDA Mini S and a 1GB Mini SD card.
I was wondering, im putting on VJPhonetools, Papyrus, Pocketbreeze, Smartkeys, Phoneprofiles along with a shed load of MP3's etc. and want to know which will run quicker :
1. Progs on the phone and MP3's on the card
2. Progs and MP3's on the card.
3. Some progs on the phone and the other progs on the card along with the MP3's?
Ta
P.S, how do i get CAPNOTIFY to run, i have it on my XDA but when i click it nothing happens !!!
1.
Some programs don't run well from memory card - any kind of hack (like smarkskey) should be installed on phone, some other programs can be installed in the card without problems. Since phone storage memory and RAM are not shared in WM5 (like they were in 2003SE) you can get away with installing a lot on the phone. MP3s and such are fine to install on memory card. Might get some problems with jerky video/audio (never experienced this myself) but nothing major.

SDHC driver,and USB MASS Storage application!
Nonsense.... for SDHC it can't be a generic application, it should be device-specific, and for a mass storage just get an old and good WM5torage. Easy.

Here is the driver.
As for Mass Storage application, I've never heard HTC having this app (besides the built in app from Diamond, which allows to choose sync mode or mass storage device for the internal memory - by the way, cannot be ported to any other device yet). I can recommend you WM5torage, as utak3r said, which you can grab here.

You are wrong. The SDHC driver is a generic driver (which is by now probably built in every cooked ROM and official WM6.x ROM) and resides in \Windows folder, being called sdhc_sc2410.dll
As fof the one I attached, it enables the use of this driver. Benchmark results after applying this patch are more than 500%-1.000% speed gain!
I use Card export II. Works great and its a good investment and there tech support line is awesome. By the way wm 6.1 compatible.

I have tried many SDHC drivers for Himalaya Devices..but all it does is create more problems by Removing the Storage Card Driver...

WM5torage locks your SD Card while using it. Deactivate WM5torage and you'll be fine.

i don't know about 2.0 but this will def work or at least it works on athena.
1st. you need mort script if you want you device to stay alive while transferring large files or you need to keep taping the screen every few minutes. also the program is installed to \windows its called USBtoPC.exe but the icons and the scripts are installed to \My Documents
you can use this with out mort script just create a shortcut "\Windows\USBtoPC.exe" and it will work but you will have to keep it alive. also you will see a microdrive and microsd thats because i have an athena and it has two drives so if you click on one of the scripts and plug it in if it does not work unplug wait about a minute or two and click on the other script then plug it in.

Mass Storage Mode

Has anyone had any luck in getting the Treo Pro to function as a USB mass storage device (using WM5torage, CardExport II, some ported hack of the WM6 USB control panel applet, or some other solution)?
I'm considering getting rid of my iPod as the Pro works quite well with Kinoma Play, but getting the files on using Activesync is painfully slow, and pulling the card out of the TP to connect directly to my computer is, well, just not a realistic option.
Thanks!
I've installed "Wei enterprise's USB to PC" as all of the usual suspects refused to work. This one works - but only intermittently. There is a conflict between these and the Palm programme that installs activesync.
I have made it work by keeping an eye on the phone screen and "cancelling" whenever the installation programme runs. Once we get into the ROM Dump, hopefully we'll be able to uncook this activesync installer and make this work properly!

You probably don't need a rom cooking for that. Just try task manager v.3.1 from this forum, and go to service and device tab. One of them is your mass storage service ( be carefull, there is also a real storage service, which serves your SD and internal memory). Just stop it, and see how your program works.
If you don't know which one to stop, just post here the list of all running services, and I'll tell you what to try.

Which service are you talking about? None of them seem to be labeled as mass storage...
I tried nueMassStorage on my Treo 800w and my PC would intermittently recognize it as a mass storage device, but the 800w does not have any ActiveSync installer. Still the PC would lose recognition of the Treo 800w as a mass storage device and get it back every minute or so.
But even when my PC could recognize my Treo 800w as a mass storage device, the speed of data transfer was exactly as slow as when connected via ActiveSync. There was no improvement in transfer speed at all. When using a MicroSDHC card reader data transfer goes very fast, especially with class 6 cards.
Every program I've used to turn my Treo 800w into a mass storage device may or may not work, but none improves transfer speed at all.
Perhaps the Treos are just slow?
I do miss Mass Storage since all my Sanyo's and BB Curve had it. Loaded up movies Hancock, The Dark Night, Zohan and more in just minutes with it on my Curve. My current 800 does not have it.
Is there a program from the TP that works on the 800?

Is the file transfer rate any better than just using ActiveSync?

I just gave it a shot.... I don't think there's any difference. I suspect what they did is not switch off the treo service, but simply make a virtual mass storage device and still send the data through the RNDIS protocol...
Has anyone else tried it yet?
Did this ever get figured out or is the Softick software the best bet. I just go a TP yesterday and my car radio plays music off of external hard drives so I would like this feature back. Info? Anyone???

A few questions/problems with my touch HD

1. First, when I got my TOuch HD (im using Vista) and I tried to connect the HD to my PC, I plugged in the cable but it wouldn't connect. I realised it was a USB port problem, change the port, and everything sync fine for the last week or so. Last night, there was a Windows Mobile Device Centre update so I did that. And after that, it woulnd't connect via Active Sync anymore. (Im using the same usb port, also tried a different port). When I try to connect as a hard drive, I can still view the content of the memory card just fine.
Does any1 know how to fix this please?
2. I've copied a lot of music into my HD, and quiet a few of them are ones that I dont really like (since I didn't filter before I copy), so the advantage of using windows media player (wmp) is that in library, i can delete the file from my memory card as well (which is more convinience than using a different music player, may be some players offer this function but Im not aware of?). However, I got this problem - when I try to update my library, wmp search ALL of my memory card and copy over all the audio files from different software/games... and I want it to only scan the music folders (where all my music are). So any1 can offer me a solution for this please? (I.e. some option in wmp that i dont know, or another music player that offer delete from storage card)?
Thanks a lot for your help..
Btw, Im using the ROM ver 1.14.4053 WWE (on Orange UK) and Vista Home Premium
hi, could someone help me with this please?
thanks
If you want the ActiveSync connection, ensure you specify that in the USB to pc Setting. Also, blank out the enable advanced network functionlaity checkbox.
I don't use WMP anymore, but I think you can delete it only from the library without actually deleting it from the storage card. In that way, your library is clean from the unwanted stuff, yet you don't end up deleting system sound files.
Hope it works for you.
hi, im using vista, and using mobile device center, not activesync, activesync is not for vista.
and what I want is actually being able to delete some unwanted song from my storage card (so i dont have to clean it up later)

Your vista can't make activesyn connection unless you do the step that I've outline in the last post. ActiveSync applies to both XP and Vista.
hi, thanks for the reply, but I don't think that's the solution to my problem, because I've already tried that. And also, it was sync fine just before the windows update and download the new Windows Mobile Center, since then, even if I tried system restore to where it was before the update... it wouldn't work...
problem solved - looks like after my update, the Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter went missing... just installed it again.
Thanks for your help.

Garmin XT 2GB Sim Card Lock Problem

Hi Folks,
I bought Garmin XT for my touch HD (Dutty 1.7) and will receive it within the next couple of days.
I heared and read in this forum that it is designed to be used with the included 2 GB card !!! I have 8 GB card that carry all my songs and data and can't exchange it for a 2 GB card !!! I didn't know this fact before buying the software and now its too late to cancel the purchase !
Is there any way to copy the software from the 2 GB included memory card to my current 8 GB card.
Please help as its not practical at all to carry 2 Memory cards all the time and keep switching them !!!
Thanx
I am using garmin tx V5 the latest with Maps loaded on my 8GB card without any problem i wonder why you are thinking that it wont work. I dont know if it worked because the garmin i have is cracked not purchased but i think it will work with your 8GB card. Dont worry about it.
Thank you very much for your reply, I read in this forum and others that you cant copy the software to your memory card and you have to use the 2 GB supplied card that comes with the package !!! I got some tricky steps on how to copy the software to my 8GB card using a key Generator as the software comes locked to the included 2 GB memory card ID !!(There is ID for each memory card). I will try it once I receive the software.
I would like to ask you if the Panoromio viw is working on your HD as I heared that it gives some error.
Thanx

I dont know know what you mean by Panoromio viw i think panoramia view ? Anyway I dont use it that much but for my Lebanon map, it rocks, it is really very clear and precise.
If you need any help PM me as it is not allowed to help cracking/working with warez.
Thank you very much, I am still waiting for the Garmin package to arrive, offcourse will mail you if I need any help.
Thank you very much
I am having the same issue witx garmin xt, you can't copy the software to a bigger card. Can somebody pm me some help please??
Panoramio works however right now if the phone is showing garmin in portrait view it will give you an error when you click on Panoramio its a bug in garmin.
I installed HDtweak and in the settings on phone choose button and change the option to portrait, then all you have to do is long press the call button to change to landscape and Panoranio will work
I got the Garmin XT on cd so good luck with copying to another card
