In a word, yes
In a few more words.. do a search!
im doing it
Its what I do, but i dont find anything, either in te use manual...if you know something just let me know
I have been using a 2GB miniSD card on my MDA/HTC Wizard w/o any problems. I have heard some people use 4GB miniSD too.
Cheers!
yeah they do work. i have 2 2gb memory cards. i use one for music and the other for movies. i just stick the other one between the battery and the battery cover. comes in handy
Mine works fine too. Sandisk
watabout transcend?,s it a good brand?
i use a sandisk 2gb, it works perfect
2GB TakeMS ... works perfect...
My Samsung 2GB works great too.
And what about SanDisk miniSD 2GB Ultra II 60x? Does it work?

I don't know if it's the best, but I'm sure it's very good
Transcend x80 2GB & 512MB work great out of the box.

I bought one of these from Newegg recently for $40 and it works fine.
I just got a 2GB SanDisk MiniSd for my Wizard but it is not bing detected in the device! It works perfectly on my PC's card reader and I'm not sure what to do
EDIT: Why is it as soon as I post it fixes itself? I put in a different MiniSD and then swapped back to my other one and it worked fine :S

To my knowledge 4GB miniSD cards aren't available yet, but if I am wrong I would love to know where to obtain one.

This forum even helps in mysterious ways .
Ah, hadn't seen this question come up yet this week, so I figured it was about time for some one to ask it with out searching again.
Of course 2gb work. Why wouldn't they?
There are no 4gb cards right now. Any for sale are fradulent cards using a trick formatting technique that makes them appears as though they have 4gb of space, when in actuality they don't. If you try and use them/format them, they will not work at all.
4GB cards are on their way but they are a new HCSD format which requires a firmware update to function correctly. The HCSD specification allows for up to 32GB of data space which is a hell of a lot. I just wonder if read write times will be hit with ruch high capacity single chip systems. Current 32GB notebook flash drives use eight chips to keep I/O performance up.
As far as I know the only difference between 'normal' and HCSD cards is the filesystem: FAT16 versus the newer FAT32. The Wizard can handle FAT32 so my guess is it will handle HCSD cards just as well.
my K-Jam works fine with my Kingston 2 gig miniSD. But my MPx220 doesn't read it properly and neither does my PC.

Hmmm... If you say so... I don't have much information about it. I know all 4GB+ cards use FAT32 and work fine in most PDAs. The main problem I have had is with digital cameras which are mostly FAT16.
Hello People,
I just bought a HTC P3600 and was wondering to purchase a 4gb mini-SD card.
I know that this topic has been treated already in other threads but after reading them all i am even more confused.
Is MobyMemory 4gb working fine?
Is 4gb TopRam working?
Which ROM should be installed to have 4gb working correctly (even after some time)?
If still not sure, can i be sure 100% that 2gb will always work?
Thanks for letting me know, i cant wait to order a 4gb!!

Many people are reporting serious corruption problems with 4GB miniSD cards both standard and SDHC (which are not supported according to specs).
Some people are also reporting problems with 2GB cards not being accessible when the device is turned on after stand-by, but I have been using a Sandisk 2GB miniSD card for more than 4 months now and I haven't had any problems with it at all.
There was a specific thread somewhere in this forum where people reported their experiences with several types of cards. As far as I remember the Sandisk 2GB card seemed to work fine for everybody.

Well, as I've stated in other threads, my TopRam 4gb is still working without any problems in my Trinity running the Dopod Test Rom, and now also with the 1.38 radio rom upgrade. Although the SDHC variety may well be working fine with some newer roms, at the moment a standard type card seems like a safer bet. I know some have had problems with all kinds of miniSD cards, but for every complaint how many quiet happy users might there be?

No! Don't buy that crap! If you fill the card with more than about 1.5 GB, bad things happen. Files get corrupted and the card can't be read in a normal card reader. They also refuse to answer mails when you want to return the card. Bad service.

OK, interesting, so it looks like a test&try approach.
Anybody elese in the Trinity world has ever tried TopRam without problems?
If i find at least another person who has it, then i may be so brave to buy it!...
Hi there,
the sandisk 2gb seems to work fine after what we can read in the forums - but does this include the ultra II version or just the regular 2gb-card?
THx, s.
Hi,
I also tried a 4GB from MobyMemory on my HTC-P3600 with latest french Orange SPV700 ROM.
Everything was fine until for unknown reason some directories & files started to be corrupted with weird characters. Then few days after, it definitively died becoming unreadable with any kind/ brand of reader. Formatting was not able to resuscitate it.
I get in touch with MobyMemory support and they kindly & promptly accepted to RMA it. I just get refunded few days ago.
So there are some problems with 4GB miniSD devices on the Trinity but none with MobyMemory support.

I'm using the Dopod Test Rom because people reported less problems with TomTom using this ROM. My TomTom doesn't lock up. I also have done the performance reg tweaks listed in the Wiki, this gives extra memory buffer for the system. Seriously, I have many apps installed on my TopRam card and use them daily. It has 3.2 gigabytes used with much of it being TomTom maps and ogg music files. I think that the cards may not be the problem, it could be the ROM version. Lots of people with other devices buy and use these cards all the time. I've checked other device forums.
I have a Kingston 4gb MiniSD card, after putting it in my Trinity it only has 1,9gb on it! Hope someone knows a fix or something
4GB MiniSD
It seems that whatever brand of 4GB card that is used in the Trinity it seems to lose files or becomes corrupted. It must be a phone problem.
I was using a 4GB U-Tek mini SD Card which made since the first of using a lot of problems, after a couple of days the card damaged, so I bought another 4GB mini SD Card (no-name) from a german ebayer, I use this card since 3 or 4 days with no problem!

I use a transcend 2Gb miniSd (since 2 months) and from time to time files become corrupted with weird character names, the only solution is to re-format. I also use a SanDisk 1Gb ultra II minisd and I never had problems with.
As Matterhorn said, that should be a ROM problem.
Personally I use a SPV M700:
ROM version: 1.23.73.3
Radio version: 1.29.00.01
Hello all,
I used a 4 gb mini sd for around 4 months without any serious issues (soft reset fixed everything for me.) Then, out of nowhere, the card just became unreadable. Couldn't access any data from it and I couldn't even reformat it. Completely dead.
So I started poking around about 4gb cards and found (like I probably should have done before I bought the card) that the current mini SD standard stops at 2gb. These "4GB" cards are really 2gb cards that have been hacked and reformatted to 4gb. Now, apparently this works, but drastically shortens the card's shelf life. It is said that most of them die within a few months, if they last that long.
I just wanted to post a poll regarding this issue. Hope this is of interest to everyone.

Well if what you are saying is true, then shouldn't the same apply to SD cards? I had used a 4gb SD card for 2 years in my Magician and Prophet without a problem...I think it was a Transcend.

I think it does apply to standard size SD cards too:
I looked at the Sandisk site and the only 4 gig cards that were being sold were listed as SDHC. Nothing on the official site over 2gb that wasn't high capacity. I was able to track down the Trancend card you were talking about from a reseller (and numerous other ones including Ebay) however, if you go to the official Transcend site you see that there are no standard SD cards in a 4gb size.
This leads me to believe that the info I have been reading regarding this is correct. If the manufacturers are really putting out 4gb cards, why are they not on their official websites?
But the point remains that these 4gb cards (hacked or not) do indeed work in the Trinity (as well as other devices.) It's just for how long that is the question. I just want to find out with what regularity these cards dying so we can judge whether or not it is a worthy risk to buy one and trust our precious data to it.
Matterhorn, I appreciate you relaying your experience with the 4gb standard SD card. Perhaps the hacking and reformatting is more stable in the standard size as compared to the mini version? Hopefully this poll will help us figure it out.

The label on the 4gb SD Transcend looks exactly like the official Transcend color scheme. The card itself is in blue plastic and the label is in vibrant colors with Transcend, 150x, and 4GB written on the label. I believe this is the same one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820208086. It also has a serial number stamped on the back. I really don't think it is a fake Transcend.
My Topram 4gb miniSD continues to faithfully work in my Trinity. I don't know anything about this ebay vendor, this link is just for info http://item.express.ebay.com/TOPRAM...320102528838QQihZ011QQtrZexpQQcmdZExpressItem. It came packaged like an authentic card, some others have no professional packaging. Perhaps it will give up one day, if it does I'll report it right away. I know there has been quite a few people stating that their miniSD cards have quit on them, which I'm sure is true, but I can't help but believe that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, meaning that people that have no problems with their cards are less likely to post results.
I've been using a 4gb card in my Trinity for about a month now.
Gave me a few problems with Media player at one stage. The MSME files for the library dissappeared and I couldnt get them deleted to fix the media library problem.
Put the card in my desktop reader and suddenly they appeared again!!
Since then - no probs. Have it well filled up with mixeded media and prog files.

I know I sound like a conspiracy theorist, but this still doesn't account for why 4gb standard SD (non-HC) cards are not on the company's official website.

Wouldnt it stand to reason that if they were 2gb cards "hacked" to 4gb they wouldnt have the capability to store 4gb worth of data? What you are inferring is the "Tardis" effect. Bigger on the inside than the outside which to my knowledge is not currently possible. A bit like having a normal sized mini car with 7 MPV seats inside. I think is just a matter of intermittent hardware to hardware clash/incompatibility not a 2gb hack.
Must admit,have suffered from the card corruption syndrome for the first time in my life whilst using the M700 trinity.Talk about heart attack!!!! The thing that makes me think it is a hardware compatability issue is that I have used that same 4gb miniSD in my wizard variants,prophet variants,treo's etc for over 7months no stress. Hence I know the card is good (thanx mobymemory!)
4GB Problems
I bought a no-name 4GB miniSD cheap on ebay. It worked fine initially in my Trinity, but only took a few launches of TomTom to get corrupted - "no maps found" and hundreds of smiley faces in File Explorer. I was always able to reformat and start over, but soon got tired of that. Strangely the same card performed perfectly when used in an I-mate Jam (inside an SD adapter) or when in a card reader on the PC. I got rid of the card and got a Kingston 2GB and have had no problems since.
I just got more TomTom maps and am trying to decide whether to take the plunge again. Anyone got any positive 4GB stories?

How can I format it?
well i have a 4gb trans. SD 150x it works in my other mp3 player now for a long time, but as far as mini i dont know
i got a topram atm and it seems like it worked for a format or 2 and died after didnt even get to use it in my pocketPC, sending RMA request now :/
i was really looking forward to hear more good news about the 4gb topram miniSD but i dont know atm
I think maybe the poll should be changed to include SDHC cards since that is a variable that is very important on judging the 4gb cards. SDHC cards work but are just not reliable yet in the current roms.

Now this is very strange:
Go to http://www.topram.com/
look at the picture in the middle right under "MiniSD" (orange background): The picture shows a 4.0GB MiniSD Card
BUT
If you click on the picture they tell you only the following cards do exist:
120X 2GB miniSD
120X 1GB miniSD
60X 512MB miniSD
60X 256MB miniSD
no 4.0GB MiniSD
What is this??????????
I tried very hard to find Matterhorns Card in Germany. No success. Simply cant find them. Not on any german online shop. Not in any real world shop. Very very strange.

That's very good news. Thanks for that info!
good morning guys.
let me share some information i have about flash memory.
few month ago one big electronic shop in my ciy was offering usb flash disk of sizes up to 16 gb. in very cheap price.
alot of my frinds buy that memory.
after few days alot of them returen to the shop to exchange them becuse the memory damged.
some of them did not have anyproblem untile today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the reason is .
these memory are just 4 gb memeory and haked to be like 16 gb.
so if u try to write one bite over 4 gb you will start write this bite over the first bite of card and you will damge the data on that bite. and maybe the card will not be usable again.
this hake is known to be used on other media before flash memorys.
it was used in some hard disk to foll consumers.
the same story here.
if u have a 4 gb Mini-SD . just try to put more than 2 gb and your data will be gone (bye bye bye). maybe the card will be not usable again .

This theory has been proven to be not true over and over again...search the forums.
hm, hello and from me..
I bought 4 gb minisd Albatron, and after 2 days, the card just stopped. I tryed to format it, but no success. The card just died. After that i read this topic and searched on the albatron site to find some mini sd 4 gb card, and i cant find... after that i exchange the card with 1 gb Kingston and since then - no problems at all.. And i think that this 4 gb minisd cards are really hacked and if you have luck - you may use it maybe 5-6 months.. but i really dont buy 4 gb card, until the manufacturer says that they have one.
Regards,
4Gb Topram mini SD - fine. I've used 2 of these and they have been OK.
2Gb Transcend mini SD - useless. Would corrupt in a few hours no matter what I tried.
1Gb O2 branded mini SD - fine.
I'm still using a generic 4GB card that I bought of EBay and its settling down fine after about 3 months use. although at times, it can be just about noticably slow.
I've had a lot of trouble with the card 'dissappearing' ow and again and the Media Player library going awol. However, the fix's for those problems are well published on other threads.
I purschased a Sandisk 4GB SDHC card hoping it might be a bit faster, th Trinity cant even see it!! So much for SDHC support.
Can anybody tell me what is the maximum capacity of a microSD card that the Hermes can take? I want to buy the biggest it will support!
Thanks
With the newest cooked WM6 Roms, the hermes now supports SDHC cards. Thus, it should work with any of the newest SDHC MicroSD cards. The size limit is currently 4GB b/c that is the largest Micro SD card available. It should work fine with the 8GB cards when they hit the market. I currently use a 4GB Sandisk MicroSD and it works perfectly.
second that, 4gb micro sandisk. anyone find them cheaper than $100 at verizon stores? i scoured the web hard to find in stock

Q on 4Gb SD Micro SD Card
Hey guys,
I use an XDA Orbit which i got from UK, had the ROM upgraded to tom codon's B&B 3.5 and now going for the 3.7 version. I currently uses a 512MB SD. So I was thinking of getting a 2GB SD, but seeing that eBAy has 4GB ones I thought to get that one.
Here is the problem, I was wonderin whether it will support 4GB. can any one who had used a 4Gb tell me does it support in an orbit running WM6 B&B PDViet 3.7. How's the file transfer rate and all that. If by any chance the orbit supports a 4GB card, which type exactly, I mean the HC ones, I really donno what that is, I read it in the forum somewhere. so pls tell me.........
Cheers.
What's an Orbit?? This is Hermes area.
"With the newest cooked WM6 Roms, the hermes now supports SDHC cards. Thus, it should work with any of the newest SDHC MicroSD cards. The size limit is currently 4GB b/c that is the largest Micro SD card available. It should work fine with the 8GB cards when they hit the market. I currently use a 4GB Sandisk MicroSD and it works perfectly."
I think the cooked ROM's that now have SDHC capability are truly awesome. I use an X500 (ETEN) and I'm extremely jealous, as we don't have that capability yet !!
My question: do these new SDHC ROM's also have the ability for backwards compatibility ? That is, if you insert a 2Gb FAT16 card in the slot, will the O/S read/write OK ?
Resurrecting an old post so I don't hear "use the search funcion"...
Anyone tried one of the new 16gb cards with their Hermes?
Looking to upgrade for my BB, but want a card compatible w/ my Hermes as well...
4GB in use,i think 8GB is supported.
16Gb reported to work too, can't say as I only use an 8Gb. No probs there though...
I updated to one of the wm6.1 ROMs & i use a 16GB microSD in my Hermes (MDA Vario II)
Fat32 is the key
Since a card is formatted under FAT32 filesystem, its limit is 2 Terabytes if it is formatted with 64k clusters or 8 Terabytes under 32kb per cluster.
Of course, the actual memory card is limited to 16gb but upgraded every year.

Hello folks, this is my first post.
I want to buy a SD card for my Kaiser (-> T-Mobile Germany MDA Vario III to be exact).
Each time I call the service, i get a different answer. Sometimes the SDHC works with the Kaiser, sometimes only the SD does, sometimes the 8GB would work but sometimes the Kaiser can only take cards up to 4GB.
So my question to this awesome forum is:
1. Do 8GB SD cards work with a T-Mobile Germany MDA Vario III?
2. Does a T-Mobile Germany MDA Vario III take SD as well as SDHC cards?
Thanks in advance!
Hi. I see no reason why the a German version of MDA Vario III wouldn't accept an 8GB memory card. The TyTNII (registered name) is SDHC enabled and I have read on numerous websites that it has the ability to accept memory cards of up to 32GB.
I, like you, have the T Mobile MDA Vario III, only I live in the UK. I'd think that different brand names for practically the same device (TyTNII) would be fundamentally simmilar, and that if a TyTNII and UK T mobile MDA Vario III could accept an 8GB SDHC card, then it would be no different with the German MDA Vario III.
I am currently looking for the best 8GB memory card, with memory card reader too. Tell you what, get an 8GB memory card, and if it somehow doesn't work, just return it and explain that you had good reason to believe that it was compatible with your device
Mine is arriving from MemoryBits.co.uk very soon hopefully. £43.62 (+p&p) with USB card reader.
I'll let you know if it works!
ok! thanks both of you a lot! ill probably buy one and then return if it doesn't work, just as one of you proposed (the number guy )
(btw, thanks for the awesome fast response)
one problem is, you know, its the 20 december and id like to have it on the 24th for obvious reasons, so i think i cant afford waiting until you get yours, but still AWESOME thanks, foaf!!!
Boy are we in the same boat I received my sdhc 8gb just in time for Xmas but the Tytn 2 is still under the tree in its box :/
Sandisk provides the tiniest usb reader ever! I had trouble removing the micro card without breaking a nail
I also noticed that the card was formatted in fat32. So here comes a noob question: I assume there's no ntfs in winmobile?

Thanks. Its misleading for it have SDHC in its title. How do you knows its a standard SD card?
No it's not, as SDHC is the newer format required to go above 4GB and it's on available on MicroSD, MiniSD, and SD Cards.

I've been using it for 2 weeks. It works quite well (been able to load up to 6.5GB of data on the card ).

I just ordered a 8GB card - can't wait to get it
Do you guys use the Cardreader or go through the USB Active Sync?
It seems taking the micro SD card out all the time would break the little plastic bit covering it :-(
you don't have to take the card out for just normal use, but if your going to be loading a lot of music or a couple movies at one time you might want to take it out of the phone and use the card reader cause it is much faseter.
Yea, I just ordered the 8 GB Sandisk from ebay. Should be here any day now. I can't wait!!!
Although in a few months when there's a 16 GB card out, we'll all be sad.
Damn technology.
I got an 8GB Sandisk for Christmas and it came with a SanDisk card reader. Looks like a little USB jump drive and you just slide the MicroSD in it.
I had to use it to format the old 2GB MicroSD I was using as when my daughter tried to put it into here Blackberry Curve the Blackberry objected profusely. LOL
Funny thing is all I did was throw the USB adapter in a Vista box and it recommended fat32. I wonder what format was on it when it was in my Tilt?
If it was Fat32 why the hell did it need formating?
