Hi guys,
I just bought a Micro SDHC 8GB memory card and I had problems with downloading music to the phone. It recognizes the card, so that should not be the problem. It wants to download the music the the phones hard disk and thats not what I want. It should go to the memory card. I tried to look for some setups in the setting section, but I couldn't find anything.
Help would be very nice
Thanks.
I don't know any option in normal roms which can do that.
I use OBEXInbox to save files transfered by bluetooth directly to SD Card.
What is OBEXinbox? Where can you get it?
Hi!
Just got my first memory card ever - put it in but can't see or access it, not appearing in storage device.
its an 8gb mini used through an mini s adapter..
please help!!
Hi.
I had simillar problem with my card. Wizard is not like the other phones, it can't read cards which are damaged or not formatted. Obviously, yours is not damaged. Simply just access the card through your PC, format it, insert the card into the wizard (you will see no change at all so far), reset your phone and after windows mobile loads, it will ask you if you want to fomat the card - yes, format it. And there you go, you have yourself a storage device
Hope it works.
P.S.
There's also one other option, your card is too big to be handled by your device.
but it seems to be formatted
Hi. seems its formatted, although I did not format it.
I Put it into (vista) computer and it just worked. When I did a "show properties" on the card it was FAT 32 formatted.
Is there a Max limit to the size of card?
8gig mini or micro?
If it is a 8 gig micro your phone will not read it. Sorry will only ready mini sd's
not micros or mini sdhc.
even...
Hi!
even though I'm using a MicroSD adapter??
thanx
On my wiz, my card is running FatFS , not Fat32. It could make the difference, i am not sure. Since you are in a zero position, you have nothing to lose with one more format, so just format the card in your pc and restart your wizard with the card inserted. If this doesn't help, then greasemuntney is prolly right and you can't use this card.
fatfs
Hi so right
Whats FatFS??
thanx
as mentioned above the wizard does not support SDHC standard and your 8GB happens to be SDHC.

awwwwwwwwwww c rap
damn... so is there a firmware upgrade? or something that I can do to upgrade the phone to use sdhc??
I got this card as a present so can't swap it?
Nope, you're bagged. Phone cannot read SDHC, no matter what kind of adapters, ROMs or firmware you attempt to employ. Try selling the chip on Craigslist and use the money to buy a bunch of 2GB cards.
SDHC
ok before a final verdict that wizard wouldn't read an sd that is in sdhc format (fat32 reliant) do note that i had the same problem but googled to find two solutions that didn't work alone yet combined did !
first of all you need to change the latency of the card read in registray as follows:
[HKLM\System\StorageManager]
“PNPUnloadDelay“=dword:8196
[HKLM\System\StorageManager]
“PNPWaitIODelay“=dword:8196
Note that the 8196 should be entered as a DECIMAL value. The HEXADECIMAL (HEX) equivalent is 0×00002004.
now attached are two sdhc drivers that require (acording to uploader) to be installed cab file first for registry tweaks and then replace both files installed in windows directory with others included in driver bundle. (through instruction guide in a txt file is included within zip file)
finally reboot , yet as a disclamer do note the following your device will not be backward compatible with regular sds . (not untill you hard reset it so it would restore original dlls and setting)
Interesting. If this works for anyone besides night-mayor, please post your hardware(G3/G4)/IPL/SPL...tracking successes and failures with this method will be valuable to other users.
In fact, you can only use standard SD cards (mini or micro with mini adapter) and the maximum capacity for standard SD protocol is 4GB, but it's difficult to find 4GB Standard SD cards (micor or mini).
Most of manufacturer actually sells HC card for 4GB size, and on web stores, it's often not very precise about HC or none HC.
Good luck...
List of working 4GB Mini SD cards.
If it ain't here, it ain't working, generally speaking (it is not comprehensive). As you can see, they do make 4GB cards that aren't using the HC configuration, but they are rare. One of the replies on the thread I linked to above even mentions an 8GB kit, but it did not work.
Hi people had a look around but unable to find a solution to this issue, I have a 32gb SD Card which I formatted in the phone which is running Android NAND and it finds the SD card and shows its a 32gb, i copied my music over to the card and all works well but when i then tried to move pictures and videos none of them show up, even if i plug the sd card into the pc it moves them across but if i unplug and plug it back in they are gone??
anyone have any ideas?

Hi, although this thread is old, how did you resolve this issue? I have Hd2, with Android MIUI rom and 32GB Sd. It wont show any data in SD card as well as it wont play any Video or Audio.
Please help and tell me how you resolved it?
Hi,
i installed windows 7 on HTC HD2 and i am unable to locate extrenal memory
16GB ScanDisk Memory,
appreciate if anyone can give me step by step instruction how to go about it
or if there is a patch i need to install
only thing you need to install is a proper sd-card and this card has to be inside the phone during the first boot... please search the forums, it was been discussed a hundred times...
mine sandisk class 4 16 GB..works great..i think u should try this card..nothing problem till now..
Reset the phone with the sd card in it
If you are looking for separate external memory , you will not find it ....
WP7 uses the whole SD card as "Phone Memory" , unless you do some voodoo that you find here on the forums ...
In Zune does it show 16gb of storage?
Okay.
So I searched and searched, and did not see anything with similar phrasing, though, I'd assumed this had been asked before.
I have my Nook Color, running CM7 off an 8GB card.
I purchased a 32GB Card and dumped everything on it and proceeded to put it into the Nook, and try and load it up.
Guess what, it didn't work.
Is there any reason why this didn't work? Does it have to be on a 8GB card only because that's what CM7 was made to work off of?
If not, could anyone provide me with information in regards to getting the Nook to boot off a larger card?
THANKS!

The problem is that you cannot just copy stuff from one card to another using ordinary tools and expect it to boot. There are methods that allow you to clone from one to another, but it must be done with imaging software.
Get win32diskimager free from the web. Start that and choose the drive that has your SD in it and in the image box pick a location on your hard drive and give it a name to save the image to. Then click 'read'. It will read the card and create an 8GB image file where you told it to. When it has finished, eject the 8GB card and insert the 32Gb card. Select write and it will burn a clone of the 8Gb card to your 32GB card. Then get the free Mini-Tool Partition Manager software and expand partition 4 to fill the rest of the drive. You are done.
