Hello folks,
I figured I would go to the experts to get an answer to my question.
On my universal I was running Windows Mobile 6.1, I didn't really like it as the phone was unstable, so I downgraded to Tmobile Windows Mobile 5 (which is what ships on the phone) everything is running smooth (Shout out to SPB Shell 3.0 AWESOME!!!)
anyways after the downgrade which went through without incident, my SD card reader does not SD cards, I know it is not hardware because it worked fine when the device was running WM6.1.
Anyome have any ideas as to what happened?
the device simply does not recognize any size, 32MB all the way to 2GB.
I have searched and found nothing.
Anyone have an updated driver for the SDCard reader?
I have extRom installed so I can put whatever I want into EXTRom and have it install.

It's because native WM5 can't use SDHC (SD cards are only up to 2GB). I think you can simply install SD settings by OllieD - where you can change to Type 1 or 2. Sorry unless someone else can help, you'll have to search for it.
I think i have the same issue.
The device sometimes see the card when set to standard SD or SDHC Type-I but it's really inconsistent.
Driving me nuts.
I had a similar problem, i had to eject and reinsert the card multiple times to get it to see it. The card SEEMED fine because it would work in my pc (via usb adapter)) and digital camera with no problems. But when i tried the one from the camera in the universal it worked fine, absolutely no problems.
So I bought a new sandisk one from ebay and all has been fine since, seems like it was being picky about the original SD!
i think, the sd card is formatted fat16
you formatted with "Haret"?
Haret?
Sorry for the noob question, but what do you mean?
I have tried formatting the card fat16, fat32, NTFS
nothing works
I have even tried install SD settings by OllieD adn that did not work
according to the specs I should be able to use my 2GB Sandisk Extreme III 2.0 GB SD Card, but alas my uni just does not see it.
any other suggerstions tips?
Also does spbsoftwarehouse's backup work really well?
I want to try some other ROMS on the device and I dread having to reinstall everything and reconfigure it too.
I would much rather back the dang thing up then experiment with various ROMS and then if nothing is to my liking, put my old ROM back with all my 'stuff'.
I have similiar problem.
In the past I have changed many ROM's from Tomal and many others. WM 5, 6.1, 6.5 and never had a problem with the card.
My last ROM where everything worked was Luca15thebig. After that I wanted to go back to Tomal V8.9 and then my problem started:
I did DOC format (always do that), put Tomal's ROM - ups, no SD card (with any SD card settings).
Did some searching on the forum, found similiar problem which was solved by flashing some factory shipped i-mate ROM. Again, DOC format, flashing that ROM (it is all-in-one ROM: radio, ext-rom and operating system). Booted that system (wow, time-warp to past ), frankly I didnt expect that my 8GB SDHC will work there - and it didnt.
Again DOC format> flashing Tomal V8.9 ROM> upgrading radio (that i-mate ROM reverted it back to 1.03). After a while booted Uni with Tomal's ROM, no SD card. Tried all settings, nothing.
Tried same thing but with that new Thing V2.3 ROM (very fast and stable BTW). Same thing - no SD card in file explorer.
My card works in my laptop. I even tried to format it in laptop - and my Uni still dont see it.
My friend has an Uni and I tried that card in his device. It works (he is using Tomal V8.7 ROM). Tried his 1GB SD card in my Uni - not working in my device.
Im no specialist but i think you guys have a hardware issue with the SD port. Maybe loose or something inside. Hope thats not the case. If multiple cards using multiple Roms do not work in Uni but work anywhere else then I would have someone or myself check to make sure the SD slot is soldered properly still.
i've encounted many issues with the SD + sdhc drivers for the universal, i'llw rite up a longer post with more information later as i've had a long day.
summary: keep trying different cabs, one will eventually work. make sure its formatted FAT32. popping it in and out+softresetitng a few times may be required.
To begin, i'm really sorry if it has already discuss because i searched for these problems and i didn't find any threads (maybe i'm blind )
so, my problem are there :
- after a custom rom flash (i tried FRE and WWE, it doesn't matter), i've got a lot of freezes. At the beginning, i thought that was manila but even i stop it, it does again. When it happens, i can't do anything else, i'm obliged to SR
- times it works well (if i can say that , when device is turn to sleep, i can't unlock it. I explain : when i switch on screen, i slide to unlock and then it goes again to sleep and if i try again, it does the same again !
I tried some things a lot of time : HR, SR re-flash, re-HSPL... and each time, it's the same thing
The only rom works it the last official one (i lost the HSPL each time too)
EDIT
some new test results : (for me only at this moment)
- in manila 1921, 8 and 16 GB cards are accepted without any problem
- in manila 1922, 8 GB card is accepted with any problem
- in manila 1922, 16 GB card isn't accepted ! freeze and unlock problems
i repeat that it does even if sense i switch off, so the doc tab issue seems not to be a good way...
END EDIT
EDIT 2
LINK TO STERNAS ROM
above a link to the only rom works. Thanks to Sternas (and waiting if he wants to explain it precisely to permit other cookers to include issue)

Yes, there are a lot of people, having the same problem. Myself as well
But we couldn't find the solution for it.
I tried different cooked roms, I formatted the sd card (fat32), I took out the sd card, I tried with or without sim card, but the device still freezes.
In case of original roms it works without freezing
Original ROMs also freeze

I disagree - I find that in the mornings, the phone the radio has gone off and nobody can phone me (I charge the phone all night). I am on Rom 48.
Hi Will,
You are talking about custom roms FRE and WWE are they realy custom or do you talk about the stock roms?
Maybe it's good you explain how you flash the rom and explain how you use the rom.
Do you use the rom default or do you install applications?
Which applications you are using, a list would be great.
And you can also explain this:
* Are you using HSPL or SSPL?
* Do you flash from storage card or do you use your desktop?
* Did / or did you not remove storage card during flash?
* Did you hardreset after flash?
* Which roms are you talking about, I mean which versions?
The more details you give the more people can verify if they have simulair problems/ software that could cause this issue and the faster you will find what is causing it.

Hi Laurentius26,
i'm sorry if i didn't precise all things you ask because i used to flash my different device for a while (since the first diamond) and i begin to have a little experience on it. So, i think i use the good way
To explain, i use to do this :
- copy the leoimg.nbh on the root of SDCard (previously formatted in FAT32) and i precise it is a sandisk microSD
- two methods then : test from the microSD (restart with the volume down key pressed) or from the PC with the CustomRUU.exe . I precise again that i've already install HSPL from Bepe and Cotulla (thanks again to them)
- after device restart, i do a HR, then i follow the config wizard and i do a SR.
and then, i do nothing, just set hour and date and the problems listed above appear, without any time to install or custom anything
for the rom, i confirm too that's not stock roms i tried but for example, Xannytech Evolution 1.0 RC1 or rom from French cooker Seya
So, i don't think it is a method problem but maybe a little bit different hardware than all of you (why ? i don't really know)
Let's go for your analysis !
thanks
I can give you 3 suggestions how you can find the cause.
Try flashing with Custom ruu but no storage card inserted.
Actualy you could try to use the rom for a day without your storage card and see if the problem persist. If not you can put the storage card back in and continue testing.
Yah and second suggestion is trying another custom rom and see if the problem persist.
If the problem still persist after these steps I would flash a stock rom, one time without storage card inserted and one time with.

it's really impossible to use it and try to test more longer time (it's my office phone, i need it a little )

I will try to re-install another custom rom while i will eat my sandwich
i'll give you more news after
i've just tried to flash with freyberry_premium_V5.3_23518 and then it works well !!!
does it mean that my phone doesn't support rom further 1.48 ?
have you any idea about that ?
No I would say the two roms you mentioned earlier probably have a bug in rom which causes the freezing and you should contact the chefs.

in fact, it's not a problem of rom version because problems comme back again, even with the freyberry_premium_V5.3_23518, i can't unlock HD2, it return to sleep before i unlock completly...
i try another rom to see
just a information, when i use customRUU.exe, it always says me that i change my image version from mine to "1.48.kwbr"
with all the different rom, i always have this message ! is it OK ?
Edit : forget this, i was wrong. I did the same and so, i obtained same version ...
I'm facing the same problem with cooked rom. But I test the cooked rom by copying a big file into my document folder, and left with about 10M in main memory, files in HD2 are easily corrupted and HD2 freeze.
- flashing stock 1.48, and then cooked rom with hard reset, HD2 can not pass the copying test.
- flashing stock 1.61, and then cooked rom with hard reset, pass the copying test, and my HD2 still functioning after one day of use. I realize that the radio for 1.61 is newer, version 2.06.
I tried to install a FRE custom rom based on 2.02 and then it works until i put the microSD card in again.
After this, freeze and sleep problem come back. So, is there a problem with 16 Gb SDHC Class 2 MicroSD card ?
thanks
it was not far to work well...
i flash without MicroSD, then install SD card hotfix from HTC and it seemed to work for 5 minutes.
i try to recover my contacts with pimbackup from my microSD and then FREEEEEZE : obliged to pull out battery
i'm fed up with this problem !!!
another new and question for all :
it seems to come from micro SD, so, someone have same of mine ?
micro SD class2 16 GB from Sandisk

Yes I am using the same SD but I am observate a little bit different behavior. MY HD2 freeze and nothing can be done. I soft reset my device but the boot up doesn´t finish again. It stops at the white HTC screen and showing me the version numbers on the left bottom. I have to hard reset my device to use it again. I had this two times with dutty´s V0.3a and the implemented Radio 2.06 using HSPL.

As you get your problems with all ROMs I guess it's either your sd-card or your device.
I suggest you first try another (smaller) sd-card. My 8Gb works perfectly.
I am also using a 8GB card (Kingston - Class 4) and had no single freeze or lock-up since the beginning.
As I thought about switching to the 16GB SanDisk card as well I am very interested in the result. If it's either a sd card or device issue.
Best regards
i totally agree with you, i think now it's a SD problem but what i can't understand is :
i use this card since i had my touch HD (the first one) and there is never a problem
i change my phone to HD2 and so put my 16 GB in HD2 and then : no problem too
it's only since i try to flash with custom roms and not with stock roms, so it's not really a sd problem but a problem between SD and last roms, am i wrong ?
Hi everyone,
My phone is HTC HD2 Leo, i used winmo 6.5 five mounths. after than i installed the sd card android rom. it was working wonderfull but after a while my phone started to behave stupid: forexample screen was shivering shaking itself and even i wasnt touch to screen itsself was opening any application (such as weather, contacts etc..). after than i made task29 and i installed original winmo rom and again another sd card rom (mcmm 4.0). it was working wonderfull too untill 1 week ago same problems started again. i made again task29 and installed original rom but this time phone made same problems!!! so i cant use it now! anyone can help me?
Take the sd card out and format it in a pc card reader, then do the task 29, put the sd card back in and flash a stock rom
Could be software, but it also sounds like it's a touchscreen (hardware) problem.
thanks dear friends but i did everything task29, installing the original winmo rom etc..everything..it didnt work. do you have another idea?
