suppose we connected 2 or more sd cards to xda, all at once!
(lets say that was possible!)
if i somehow managed to connect 2 cards, what would happen?
- get 2 separate storage cards?
- get 1 storage card, with more memory?
- wont even work?
im wondering if i can somehow solder a card INSIDE the xda, and wire it to the sd slot, allowing another card or device to be inserted as normal.
but, would the 'wired' card still work?
anyone tryed it? anyone wants to?
i doubt it
the sd connector have a surden number of connectors
the card have a surden number of connectors
if you were to connect 2 cards you could have to run them parallel
this would draw 2 times as much signal power as with just one card
this is the first pitfall
the 2th pitfall is that when the connectors are parallel then when you address one address on 1 card you address the same address on the other
if the first pitfall would not consume you the 2th would force you into some raid1 setting which would crash when the 2 cards were not the same size and possible the same speed

Hi All,
I have used Imate PDA2 for around 2 years never got any issue, recently (2 month ago) I found the issue that i can't write anything to SD Memory Card, Reading from the SD memory Card in Alpine is fine, the Card itself is fine (tested in PC).
Looks like to be an issue with it's pin's not getting connected while card is inserted in unlock state.
Does anyone know which pins on board can be solded togather to permanenlty make the Card Reader into write mode ? or any other hints ?
Regards,
Tipu
Hi, I purchased the Transcend 8GB Micro SDHC TS8GUSDHC6 about 3-5 Mo ago, for my AT&T tilt/8925, The issue I am having is that after about 1.9Gb, has been written to it, the transfer will either fail, or it will just sit and the completion will raise indefinitely. I do not have a SDHC compatible reader for my Pc, nor do I have another card over 2Gb. I was wondering if the phone cannot address over 2Gb, or if there may be something wrong with the card?
Hy
maybe i ma wrong, but i think you must format the card in "FAT 32". if you formated the card in "FAT" you can't get it over 2 GB... i don't it for sure

If you are attempting the transfer using Activesync:
You are very patient
Activesync is incredibly slow for large file transfers
Activesync has a bug where it appears file transfers are starting again continuously even though they do go through (eventually).
If you don't have a compatible card reader and have not partitioned the card, it should have already come with a Fat32 partition so DrWinstons concerns shouldn't be an issue. If you've put it in another (old) device to wipe it though, this may well be what's happened. Where has the card been?
The card was bought for this phone, and has only been in it. as far as active sync, it will write 1.5gb in about 35-40 min, then if I try to add another 1.5gb file, it will say 35min and count down for a few minutes, then suddenly the transfer bar, seems to stop and the timer goes up to over 2Days, and will continue to raise, I have left it for 10Hours one night and it made it no further.
Update, I am formatting with pocket mechanic now, Fat 32 4k cluster Low level, Backup Fat
Update2 Well format failed, now the card cannot be read by the OS, I am going to RMA the card. Guess that will fix it
1. I have encountered the same problem and rectified with an SD reader. My SD reader works for SDHC 8GB card. So perhaps if you can find an SD card reader, try it.
2. As for formatting with pocket mechanic, it doesn't seem to work for me as well. What I did was to use error correction in Win XP using the SD card reader. This worked for me.
3. You could also try downloading some usb host software bypassing ActiveSync totally and use your 8GB card like a regular flash/thumb drive which should dramatically improve your file transfer time.

Micro Sd Card Slot
Hi, I no some windows phone 7, phone have micro sd card slots but it was not confirmed that the HD7 has it. Do you know anything??
I believe it won't come with and SD Card slot.
You can't use your own SD cards with Windows Phone 7. So even if the Phones have something like a reachable slot, it's only made so OEMs can equip the phone with larger pre-built cards.

Not true. WP7 phones equipped with a SD card slot can be upgraded to a bigger card. BUT you will need to hard reset the phone in order to get the new card recognised.
There are several sites out there reporting this.
http://wmpoweruser.com/htc-hd7-microsd-slot-exposed/
there seems to be a card slot under the bit of plastic on the back - the lower half of the battery cover section, the part with hd7 and windows phone written on it - but you need to take out a bunch of screws and one of them has a void sticker on it - so guessing it voids the warranty if you do
A little warning :
after you upgraded your phone with a new sd card you can't use that card any-more ad this time (your pc won't recognize it and you can not format it to )
Hi there! I've been using CM7 for a while now and have had three or four occasions so far where my 16 Gig Patriot Class 10 card has ended up with either partially or completely corrupted data and I'm curious if this is just an issue with a cheap card, some feature of the Nook or related to something in CM7. Most of the time it will eventually come up with a damaged SD card warning but prior to that my directory structure gets mutated into symbols instead of letters (it's current state).
I'm planning on swapping out the card with a SanDisk I have here so if it's the card I suspect the problem will go away but mostly I was wondering:
1. Anyone else have this issue?
2. Are there any known fixes?
Appreciate any help. Would eventually like to be able to use this card for storing movies but having it fritz out from time to time is a real pain with the amount of stuff android keeps on the SD cards.
hi, i have a micro sd 4gb class 6 and my phone works fine, When i put the original micro sd 8gb class 2, the notification icon of "preparing SD" doesn't dissapper and when the screen go off i can't turn it on because never shows me the screen, only the inferior buttons lights on (nothing i can press) and i have to pull over the battery to make the phone works, i put a micro sd 8gb class 4 and the same happens, i've tried to increase the cache memory to 2048 bytes using "SDBOSTER" and nothing happens with the micro sd 8gb, but my micro sd 4gb works faster.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem? i want more space in my external memory.
I'm using original eclair 2.1-update ROM
Hey jp23,
I recently encountered this problem with my stock 8 GB class 2 card, while transfering files in bulk to the card. I use linux on my laptop and there is a known bug in one of the drivers which causes failures while tranfering large amounts of data in one go. For me it caused the same issue, and thats usually because the card is temporarily corrupted.
For me the fix was buying a microSD card adapter and formatting the card once through the computer and not the phone. I also bought a 16GB class 4 card in the process.
I suggest formatting your card via a card reader or adapter and then trying it on your phone. Although I find it odd how both of your cards can have the same problem. Hope this helps.
I've tried this before and works when the card storage it's <1gb, when i put some mp3 files and pass 4gb or more the same thing happen.
i don't know what to do...

Did you do a scan and repair using windows? That fixes it for me
format it with LLF low level format from hd guru, it always fix my sd card whenever it corrupted.
My card it's not corrupted, i've checked that before.
I bought a micro sd 8gb class 4 and set format as fat32 and put it on the phone, then i connected to the pc using sd adapter to put some music and videos, and when i put the sd back to the phone got the same issue...
I updated to BRAVO yesterday and have no solutions for my micro sd 8gb class 4
i have a similar issue with my 8gb stock sd card too, when i try to open the media gallery or push the media gallery button, my phone shows me that there's a problem with read/write into the sd card... =(

Here is a reason and fix for this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1262030&highlight=failed
But I do recommend getting a c10 card for the speed.
I have same problem, you should update your phone to 2.3, you will out of this.
I just purchased a Micro Innovations Wireless keyboard for my Zaurus-SL5600, but theres a problem; I dont know how to physically set it up to work. I can type with it, and the Z recognizes it fine, but the problem is that the Z has its infra-port on its side, so I cant use the stand The keyboard has it just above the w key, and I dont know how I could rotate the screen.. Does anyone have any ideas?
Yack
Too bad with micro sd
