attaching digicam possible

Hello.
I own an olympus C 2100 UZ digicam
and an
t-Mobile MDA 1.
Is it somehow possible to extend the MDA for a Video input or for an USB card reader ?
This would enable me to view my digicam-pictures on a much better monitor than the digicam one's.
(I could either use the digicam's video out in real-time or I could simply verify the shots through the sd-card)
Is there something on the market which acts like a USB-Master between 2 USB slave devices ?
Or is there a battery powered device which is able to copy one memory card (SD-Card from cam) to the mmc used in my phone ?
(then I'd just buy a 128 card for my phone and be happy)
Has anyone experiences with wlan cards for xda 1 ?
Ok, this (second) question my be a little of-topic :
Is it possible that with the actual update of the firmware provided by t-online, the tracelogger tool is no longer available ?

Sd card or mmc card should work in xda.

Hello.
Unfortunaltey Olympus uses a card format called "SmartMedia".
and this format is thinner than my normal mmc-card, but unfortunately twice as broad.
I don't see any slot where a smartmedia card could fit into
That's why I had the question of copying the images with a card-reader which can copy without the aid of a computer.
(I could copy the pictures, view them, delete the odd ones from the card and be happy)
Regards,
Karlheinz Meier

Yes, my Olympus uses both smart media and compact flash cards. Are you aware that a camera exists that plugs into the sd slot on the xda? I havent tried it personally but some people were quite happy with it, still sold on ebay pretty cheaply.

SPV M1500 / Alpine Memory Card Compatibility

Hi,
Can anyone here tell me the fastest 2GB / 4GB MiniSD cards please?
(BTW - Not sure if 4GB exists in MiniSD format yet)
Also - a fairly dumb question - I think the answer is "No - of course it dosn't" but I'll ask anyway!
Does using a MiniSD adapter have an effect of read / write speed? As it's just an electrical connection I would assume it dosn't...
Cheers

Mini SD are slower than full size SD cards. Unless you are after a compatibilty thing with mobile phones, MMC+ cards would be a better bet for the Alpine as they seem more stable than SD cards.
Tecic do a 120x Mini SD 2gb - Google it.

Hi - thanks for the reply.
I thought of Mini-SD becuase some phones (C500 / C600) have Mini-SD slots...
I currently have a M1500 - full SD slot but would like to keep mini-SDs as you can put them in either device...
I'll have a look at the link now!

New HTC 6.1 ROM + SDHC = BIG ISSUE !!!

Hello,
since I've installed the last HTC ROM, I have a big problem : all my I/O accesses to the SDHC card are very very slow...
If I copy a file from my PC to the SDHC card, the speed is fine.
But if, for exemple, I launch a CAB file on the SDHC card, the installation of the CAB file is very very slow.
Does anyone else have this problem ?

I have the opposite.... when I'm copying a file from my PC to my phone (for example 2gigs of movies) it takes nearly an hour. When the card is connected directly to my PC it takes about 5-10mins... I don't have any problems on the device as far as I can tell...

I have same kind of problems. When I put my SDHC away, everything works fine. My SDHC is a 4 Go and it worked OK before I updated. Now, it happend that my device slows down or freeze during long seconds. What is going on ?

That's because the Titan is USB 1.1 so you need to insert the card into the PC directly for optimal data transfer rates.

No issue with copying to my 8gb SDHC. From the PC I am connected to a USB 2.0 hub. Launching Cabs from the card works just fine as well.

I have no ISSUE!!!

I agree the fastest option is to transfer large files using the USB 2.0 Hi speed card reader (assuming one came with the card). The TyTN II is a USB 2.0 Full Speed device which doesn't offer the same performance as USB 2.0 Hi speed but thats not the reason for the especially slow performance. There are several threads about this issue including here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350347
and here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354629
I've just upgraded my TyTN IIs firmware using HTC eClub (upgrading my sig here next) and transfers using Activesync seem just as slow as they've always been. Perhaps next Microsoft can upgrade Activesync/WMDC to reduce that bottleneck. They really must try harder WRT Activesync IMO.

I have exactly the same issue : my device freezes all the time, for about 10-20 seconds, and sometimes it does also slow down....
I should make a new specific post for that.

I think it can be linked with the RADIO rom... But i am not sure... My provider is ORANGE France... Does it have something to do ?

My provider is also Orange France.
But I've found out what the problem was : Quick Menu.
Since I removed it, the Kaiser does not freeze anymore. I talk about that in another specific thread.

sdhc Kaiser II TeRrIbLy slow

Hi everyone
That's my first post! I've been hanging around here withwout becomming user so long...till now.
I have just bought an sdhc card ( dont know the class ) and it's working EXTREMELY SLOWWWW on my Kaiser TyTN II (htc) when I mean slow, i mean below usb1.0
I'm using Card Export II, compatibility with Hermes devices, and when writing a single mp3 through, ~6mb it takes 5 minutes. Transfer rate is below usb 1, and that was weird, so i've checked to transfer ~6mb to anotrher microSD card (256mb old card from old phone, nokia brand) and the song was copied pretty fast, reaching usb 1.0. bitrate
Imagine to copy a 400~mb film on my new card, even i can't copy mp3 ...to slow...ah, almost i forgot it, the new card, kingston sdHC with it's HC pc card reader works exellent, usb2.0.
How that can be possible? an old card is working at least 4fold times faster!!! than my new Kingston sdHC 4gb.
Any idea?
Really appreciate.

Any idea about that?
Someone is using a Kaiser II with Card Export II? having reeeaaaly slow data rate¿
thanks

As you know, the Kaiser only supports USB 1.1 and thus (s)low speeds.
First of all, disable the Hermes workaround option. Activating the option reduced my transfer speed by half (approx.).
For large files, just use an external USB 2.0 card reader.
In the past I have done a test to get an idea of the different transfer speeds:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392941 (post 9)
Just wondering: which ROM are you using and which class has your SDHC card? (Me: -G-'s DK.10 series - WM6.1 & SDHC Class 4)
As to why your transfer rates are so low, I have no idea...

Hi!
Mhhh it could be the rom....i've even tried tweaking registry parameters (increase sd bloc size, etc) with no significant success on writing speed.
I've got and kingston 4gb sdhc class 4, rom WM6 prof compilation 18125.0.4.2

I had this problem with a Kingston 8GB Class 4. I tried tweaks and other roms, no luck. I ended up exchaning the card for another one that was exatly the same, and it completely solved my problem. I think a bad one gets in the batch from time to time. It took like 2 minutes to transfer 500kb. Granted, it takes a long time to transfer files anyways, but not that bad.
I've heard this from other people as well. However,

if not mistaken, i think i've read somewhere stating that kaiser max spped is usb1.1 and class2 for sdhc (hardware limitation)

well
I jave update the rom....to hyperdragon III and things got worse....
Now, can't even connect with pc via Card Export....and the worst of all, my gps got ruined.
More than 45minutes to catch gps signal
Before flashing, with the original rom i got satellite inside home, now...now not even outside....
Gps is now spoiled.
I've used [13 January 2009] HyperDragon III Raphael OS 5.2.21009 Build 20931.1.5.0
Now i should fix the gps...any idea¿? reflashing the rom would be painful.
Thanks

The fastest transfer rate I have found was via a ftp server on the kaiser. Its called Mocha Ftp Server. Works via wifi
Hope this helps
P.S.
I dont think HDIII comes with a radio. Maybe you are using an incompatible one. Look at the list on his page and download a matching radio for WM6.1 ( as this 100% will cause issues with any radio function including GPS )

It's not only a hardware thing.. I am using an sdhc 8 gig from sandisk, and just reading/writing to it is slow (even w/ an external reader as oppossed to the one in my comp)....
I guess it's like trading off mileage for speed in a car though.............. I dunno, I'm about ready to chuck mine, good thing it only cost me 29 bucks.

Micro SD card size

Hello,
i've got a new (used) mteor, with the original operating system (WM5.0). I've put into it a 4gb micro SD, but the phone does not recognize it. The card came straight out of my TyTnII, and worked fine there.
Question: does the mteor have a size limit on card capacities?
thanks.

official SD driver in MTeoR doesn't support SDHC (4GB and higher) cards.
Moreover, WM5 is not designed for SDHC either.
SDHC support had been appeared with WM6. But special SD host driver comatible with SDHC should be supplied by manufacturer. HTC didn't that for MTeoR.
There is some SDHC package for MTeoR is floating around, but it's very buggy - SDHC card disappears after sleep and requires reinsertion.
In the meantime, i've wrote my own SDHC driver for MTeoR, but it's only for my personal use.

Thanks for the response.
If i understand correctly, in WM6.1 there is a chance that this memory card will work?
I've been thinking about putting another Rom on this phone, but am a bit hesitant. I've done it on several other phones (TytnII, Neo, etc.), but have become a bit hesitant. Sometimes the new Roms become "sticky", i.e. slow.
So the question for me is, are the available newer Roms for the mteor ok? Do they run without major issues? And, which one would you recommend for relatively stable running, not "playing", if you know what i mean?
I'm just asking for an opinion, nothing else.

You do not plan to share your driver with the community?
