Hi
Does anyone know if 4GB SD Cards work in the Alpine? Especially, the Transcend 4GB 150X Cards?
BTW, I have had the 1.04 ROM for quite some time now, and I have noticed some problems compared to the previous ROM. The device sometimes locks up when going in to flight-mode and then switching the phone back on. Also, sometimes the wireless does not switch on. Anybody else had any issues?
Thanks
dont know about 4GB..... im using 1GB from Kingston...working fine....
dont have any problem but not very happy about bluetooth...
thanks
Yes, it is compatible.
Using Trahscend 4G 150x for 2 months already - no problem (except too few USB card readers understands >2G cards)
Great! Thanks....just what I needed
I found it for £150 so good price too! w00t

Where did you find it at this price? The mutt chewed mine up and I need a new one.
Cheers, Pug.
Unlucky about the dog lol. My goldfish may be boring, but it doesn't destroy my £150 SD Cards!!!
I just checked now, and it seems the price has gone up to £160.
If you are still interested, here is the link:

I recommend you order by phone. I bought about 100 256mb Transcend SD Cards off them before, and they were reliable. Dirt cheap for all kinds of memory too! Free shipping as well!

hi,
i've seen 8 gb cards advertised on ebay - does anyone know whether they work with the xda 2i?
Unfortunately, 4Gb is SD card's limit. 8Gb ones have different architecture.
damnit. but thanks for the info
Secure Digital Card (SD 2.0) Transcend 8GB
i've seen 8 gb cards advertised on ebay - does anyone know whether they work with the Qtek 9000[T-Mobile MDA Pro,

cool, cz i am thinking of getting one, currently i am using a 1gb
does it lag or what?
Did someone notice something similar to micro sd slot near the battery on the pen side?
Is that true,or what is that?
hidden SD Slot
Just had a look at my diamond round the stylus cant see an SD slot there i think its just a hoax but stand to be corrected if someone else can say where it is
The only thing I can see is a piece of PCB near the 'pen pulled out detection switch' (write it down for scrabble).
It isn't a micro SD slot as far as I can see.
The original Diamond was supposed to have one, but to make it smaller they removed it and just kept the 4GB internal storage. Only the Touch Pro has a microSD slot.

I hear the difference in size would have been 2mm.
2 stinking mm.
:-(
Of course the Diamond-Plus will be released in 6 months time with 16GB internal storage and micro SD slot. Price you pay will technology im afraid..

Well you;re obviously not trying very hard... either way a choice would have been nice. Some people have larger storage needs (pics, videos, music etc)

Supplied headphones are only designed to function as a basic hands free kit, you want sound quality- go pay for it.
The "non-standard" USB sync cable is very much a standard

What are you going to do with it, put next to your Diamond, watch and dream ?
Can imagine how people struggled just a couple of years ago when 2gig cards were the top of the range ...
This is supposed to be a business phone, if you want an entertainment system, I am guessing iphone would be a better choice for you ..

WRONG.
The HTC Touch Diamond was not primarily designed as business phone, but a casual smartphone with a host of entertainment features (You Tube for example) akin to the iPhone.
External card reader
Is there any way you could get the Diamond to read an external card reader via a usb cable?

Ummm I don't have a Diamond, but my Raphael will be here in a few hours. And it will have 8x as much memory as your Diamond when the card is released.

8 times the memory, 3 times the thickness.. its a trade off
Is there any way in which we can add a MicroSD card slot to the diamond?

I'm only specululating, but by desoldering the internal memory chip on the mainboard and resoldering to a micro-sd cardslot, it could be possible perhaps. I would bet, the interface is the same and the chip on the motherboard is nothing else, but an unhoused, normal micro-sd card - don't know it for sure of course.
But if possible at all, handling the tiny contacts of smd-chips is only possible with special equipement, a lot of experience and the risk of destroying the mainboard.
What about attaching microSD reader through extUSB?

That is possible. Discussed in another thread here.
So far, can only be used for flashing ROM, using an external card reader.
Diamond is missing drivers for accessing the card in WM6.1.
just bin the diamond
go buy a pro....
did you not know this before you brought it
Micro-SD
I saw a cable which is basically like the computer's usb extension cable but only shorter. It was under the phones category and my guess is that it should work and not just for flashing the rom!
So I'm looking in ebay now to get one of those little suckers and try it to confirm if my theory is right or wrong!
Laters guys
Hi Guys
Let´s face it. HTC could have build this device with a Micro-SD.
They are just learning from Apple. upgrade it slowly. next year, they surrely release a "upgraded" version, with a 5M camera and a MicroSD card, more Ram...

Joao

First of all, they could not have build this device with a micro-sd slot without getting thicker. And as the most of us want a thin and small device they made all right IMHO.
And why the hell should they learn from Apple??? How many PPC's did Apple build???
Like I said, I think they made a very good job with the Diamond.
So far....
I want a diamond with microsd
The touch pro is too fat for me (size and money).

Adding an SD slot would have added about 1mm to the thickness. Hardly a great amount in the grand scheme of things. However, it might have drained the battery even further, so maybe that's why it was left out.

i did not even notice they had all that crap on there! lol
but thats interesting, about the microsd expansion slot anyway, because when the diamond was first rumoured to exist, it apparently did have a microsd slot, but htc chose to remove it. correct me if im wrong i dont think there are any variations of the diamond that have an expansion slot do they?
