storage chip location on motherboard? - Shield Tablet General

Does anyone know where the storage is located on the motherboard? I've searched and searched and it doesn't seem anyone has schematics or part locations on the motherboard itself.
Thank you so much!

SanDisk Wifi+256MB combo SD Card

Hi, I've used the search on the forum for information on this, there seems to be a bit of discussion on it, but nothing really solid
has anyone actually got this working one way or another? I don't mind even if its without the 256mb memory for now.
If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it!
just a thought, is anyone familiar with the specifications of SD and SDIO? is there possibly one of the contacts that can be removed/covered on the combo card to stop the XDA2 thinking theres a storage device as well as wifi card connected?
*bump* ? :/
I've read from other forums that the Sandisk combo card requires custom drivers from the manufacturer of the XDA2. Using existing drivers will not get it to work and its declared as so in the Sandisk website w/c states that the XDA2 and 2s is not supported.
Maybe somebody from this forum can come up with the needed drivers.
hopefully

SD card connector replacement

Hello,
I damaged the SD card connector of my HTC Himalaya and have to replace it. There are so many different connector types to find on the internet and I don't know which one will fit best. Do you have any suggestions? Do you have any informations about the built-in SD card connector of the HTC Himalaya?
Thanks,
Jann

Hi again,
I've asked about the SD card connector. You posted information about the used application specific integrated circuit (asic). I need to know which kind of SD card connector is used and where I can find one to replace it...
Bye,
Jann
no the first link was to hardware in general
you can even see the barcode on the sd card connector
too bad you cant see it well enough though
maybe you can conect the guy who took the pictures
or look yourself if you have the barcode too

Dual MiniSD I/O possible?

i recently stumbled on a thread on Hackaday, where there was one entry where he managed to piggy back the connection of the SD and hard wired it to a SD Wifi, leaving the SD slot open for a SD memory card (parallel connection).
The question is, is it possible to do the same on an Atom? or any PPC for that matter? Maybe, a dummy SD or minisd with two MiniSD2SD connectors (for holder) in parallel so you could connect a minisd memory on one and a minisd wifi on the other. I wonder if the parallel connection will work?
Also correct me if im wrong, but i read somewhere that the SDIO uses two modes of communication with the SD, one is serial i think and the other is direct or something, but the latter is much slower and only good for devices like wifi and stuff and the direct method is for memory. So saying that, i guess 2 Memory card is not possible, and only Device and Memory is quite plausible.
I hope its possible. Anyone care to enlighten the subject?
why do you need to install an sdio wifi card to your atom when it already has built-in wifi? Anyway, it would be better if someone can make a sd to usb converter. This way, we can expand the sd card capacity to that of a flash drive. or maybe we can expand the RAM by replacing it with a flash drive? Anyway, maybe an expert can give his 2 cents on this.

internal GPS Module 4 Prophet

Does anybody know of a WORKING internal GPS Module for the Prophet ? I'm talking about SDIO at most, but preferably some kind of internal extension board. I'm guessing everybody has had enough with carying around a bulky bluetooth gps receiver.
ya! that would be very nice...
No such thing, and not going to happen.
I am not quite sure about SDIO (though I never hear of one) but there is no such thing as "internal extension cards" for Prophet or any other WM device.
Their mother boards come as a closed unit and there are no connectors / slots for any hardware other then what is in the specs.
This is not a PC and the OEM never attended for people to take these things apart.
sdio
the wifi nic for the prophet is actually a SDIO extension board. not as in a physical board per say but as in the way it interfaces with the pda mb. the sd slot for the prophet i know that it is sdio compatible, what i don't know is if it supports the standard necessary for this one, for instance: http://www.globalsat.com.tw/eng/product_detail_00000053.htm
Actually the problem with that model is not the standard - they stated SDIO so no reason it wouldn't work, except they don't claim to support WM 5.
GPS basically throws ASCII strings to a serial port, but a card using SDIO would probably need a driver to be properly recognized by the OS and WM 2003 driver is more than likely not to work for WM 5.
On a side note: it is considerate of them to provide memory to replace the storage card who's place they are taking. (though this will create a problem with nav apps that lock on SD serial).

Sandisk nand soldering

hello everyone,
PLEASE IF ANYONE OF YOU WHO'S AN EXPERT AND KNOW HOW TO DO THAT.
I need your help in mounting a Sandisk NAND that I pulled out from my SonyEriccson W960 phone. I have some important data that I need to recover!
f you can help me to find out which solder points in the board that I need to use/solder in order to make this NAND readable and mounted on my computer...
you know better than me... Please check the attached picture below which has the little board where the NAND is soldered, (it has so many solder points!)
any help or suggestion would be appreciated, and thank you so much.
At that point I don't think you need to worry about solder points.. That's typically if you're going to use ISP but you need the full phone for that. Or at least the full chipset.
With what you have there, I would just take the chip right off, clean it and read it in a programmer. Look into Sireda adapters or Z3X.
