what is the size of sd card that a o2 xda himalaya running windows mobile 6.1 to 6.5 can take. i have a 4GB sandisk ultra 15MB/S SDHC MEMORY CARD that does no get recognized when i insert it.
are there any workarounds or is it a certain way of formating it or just a hardware problem?
himalaya only run sd cards anything over 2GB are sdhc
I am using a transcend 4 gb sd card ( not sdhc ) which I bought of e bay last year.Also works in Alpine and Blue Angel
it also supports 4 GB card but sd card as per all above post
if u can't able to detect it then just clean out the contacts of the card & also clean the inner contacts in himalaya with clean paper...

I just bought a 2gb sandisk sd card
it is recognised by the magician but each time it switchs to stand by mode the "memory card" file disappears...So I have to take it out and to insert it again (two times) in order to see it again.
Is it normal ? or there's a problem with this card ?
thanks
:shock:

Good to read, Storage to the people!
Take a look @ the card params too. Somehow a magician communicates better with a fat(16) card than fat32.
Have fun, M
thanks for your comment...
I can only format the sd card with the magician because i don't have a sd card reader for my PC. But with the program I use (FORMAT) I cannot choose FAT 16 or 32 - do you know a soft to do this ?
PHM Pocket Mechanic is very good for this, available on trial
I just received my Sandisk Ultra II 2GB card and it's working fine with my S100 (1.12) and I didn't have to format it when I received it.
However I have just come upon a problem. The card works fine in my S100 and I can copy files to it via ActiveSync. In order to speed things up I just tried putting it in the card reader in my laptop which reported it as unformatted...
Got the Sandisk Ultra 2 2GB for my M500 and it works fine in the phone , my card reader however does not like it either.
However i have sd-cf adapter that i use with my camera , i sloted the sd card in to that and in to the card reader and it works fine at very high speed.
Hope that helps.

Laptop doesn't have CF and I'm reluctant to allow it to format the card in case I suddenly have issues reading it in my S100. :/
hi, i ran a benchmark in my 512mb SD card (unknown brand - missing logo) with pocket mechanic and the results are: Read 5.1X and Write 0.6X. Is it bad?
ok my card reader on my laptop and my S100 must talk a different dialect of SD card because no matter what I do they can't work together.
If I format the card in my S100 and copy files via activesync the laptop reports the card as unformatted.
If I format the card in my laptop and copy files on my pocketpc can't see them.
Size doesn't fit to 2GB Card
Hi I just got my sandisk ultra II 2GB SD Card and at first it worked fine.
Magician recognized it as 2GB then i copied some files from my computer with my SD Card Reader. But after inserting the card into my magician i got some weird looking characters, files, and folders. So I inserted it again in my SD card reader and formatted the card. After that my pc and my magician doesn't recognise the card as 2GB anymore just 1GB .
Any help to solve this problem and to get my 2GB back ?
I too facing the same problem it is detecting as 1 GB instead of 2 GB also the after formatting sd card in card reader made i unformated for ppc and viceversa dam,anybody have a solution for this ?

Only magicians with version windows 1.06 and 1.03 can work with SD cards 150x 2 Gb. All other versions can't do this. My magician offers me to format the 150x 2 Gb Transcend SD card. How can I fix it?

Try Softick CardExport II - use trial to format SD with PC.
I've tried Resco Explorer, Softick CardExport II<both format on the device and from my PC in card export mode> and Pocket Mechanic- all the three of them detect it as 135 MB card. The card is working great with Universal, so it's OK and it's realy 1 GB....

I'm using also using a 2Gb microSD card without any issues. Try reformatting your card and check again. It could be a compatibility issue. Do other brands work fine?
check first with a smaller capacity microsd
to ensure slot is working fine
then if its working try to reformat your card if not you probably have a damaged card reader on ur hermes
btw im using 8GB Sandisk microsdhc with official att wm 6.0
hi
i just bought a new 2GB Transcend MicroSD Card
with mini sd adapter.
but the wizard doesnt read the card
(fat32 formated)
if i try the card in a cardreader its working ,
my old 512mb mini sd card working is working in my wizard..
any solution?
XTRANGE...
Try to use a ROM that contains the app format storage and try to formatt... but i think it may recognize it first... nothing to lose if try... or reformatt it on a XP built in with card reader.
Panasonic makes a free sd formatting software that it claims to strictly adhere to the sd standard:

You could give it a shot, don't see how it could hurt
Hi,
i have a new sandisk 2GB microSD card in my hermes. Because i have no card reader for my pc i want to format the card in my hermes.
Is it possible to do so? I cant found any option for formating.
The hermes says in settings >> memory that no card is installed.
I thing it is because the card is unformated.
I do so, but there is no storage card.
The mobile device also says that there is no storage card.
I know that Resco File explorer can format the card but most cards are formatted fat by default. The Hermes at least recognises this. If you're not even getting the sd card recognised then there may be either a problem with the card or with the Hermes.
It would be best to just fork over a few bucks and get a card reader for the pc as if the pc is recognising the sd card that means that the Hermes may have a problem. Try formatting FAT32 anywaty then put back into Hermes. May work.
If the pc doesn't recognise the sd card, does happen that new cards go bang, then I'd suggest taking the card back and getting a new one.
Cheers...
8gB micro SD
Hello,
I have the same problem. My 1gB card works fine in my Hermes but the new 8gB is not recognized. Spec says phone can only take maximum of 2gB but other forums say can use 32gB. My latest clue is that the card was preformatted with FAT32 and the Hermes requires FAT. However FAT can only deal with Volumes up to 4gB. So I stumped.
If you read a bit further you'd realise that these people with 32 Gb cards run custom roms which have the patch applied...
There is a cab file running around that allows you to run sdhc cards on WM 5/6 but I can't remember what its called (try sdhc patch in search)...
