I've tryed to change drivers to Hitachi Microdrive (on EEEPC this trick works), but faced two problems... SD disappeared at all, and Wireles too... After rollback I've found that Wireless module is SDIO-type card. And it works with the same cardreader. So if we have SD on WM-side, we will have Wireless automaticaly.

i have a mda vario 3 and am trying to install software on the sdhc card 8gb by sandisak.
my computer sees this as an external drive but still says insert disk in drive d? some colleagfues say the pc cannot read that size of the card and requires a bios update????? any ideas what they are talking about and how i fix this problem
Thanks in advance
Hi tubzy,
I'm new to this topic, but I think you'll need a SDHC compatible card reader.
In the linked thread is a solution I think.

no solution still
hi eda-one
sorry this still is no soluton - i do hae the latest sandisk with the card reader and once all this gear is connected to the pc it says...please insert a disk in drive f??
even though the disk is in the usb card reader
did you try format it?
If you have used the card on an 'oldish' PC without the latest BIOS or Windows updates installed it may not be SDHC compatible even using a card reader.
You can also get a situation where formatting using the standard Windows formatter or even just writing files to it from your PC will corrupt its filing system.
There are various utilities available on SD manfacturers sites for formatting and recovery.
Check out the 'Formatting and Read/Write check util in the OEM section here and download the latest drivers for your reader whilst there.

Hope this helps.
Hi and thank you
HI
Even after trying this it still doe s not work,
I have downloaded the utility and attempted to run it but it says no usb found even though it can vonnect to a usb pen drive?? any ideas ??
thank you
I had that same problem when I first got my 4 Gb SDHC card and it was because I didn't connect the card reader directly to a USB port, instead I was using an external USB port. When I put it in to an onboard one, even though all of mine are on the back of my computer, it started working.
8gb card
Hi and thanks for your response.
i am sorry but can you please clarify what you mean to be onboard usb port. Is this the sockets where you normally connect any usb device eg a mouse to a computer or do you mean i have to take the computer apart and do it a motherboard level?
I am not very technical and apologise in advance if it sounds a silly question.
I bought the damn thing and was hoping it would and should work from out of the cardboard package. I can see this on the my computer as an external drive but when clcikcing on it it says insert disk
if the disk was faulty it would not work on the phone but on the phone it says 7.5 gb available and have stored some data there. So i think it it is a case of the pc not being able to read the card and from there i dont know what the problem is.
Any further light on this subject would really be appreciated

You have it right about what I meant. I did mean the sockets where you connect any USB device. You don't need to take your computer apart or anything. If that's what you are already doing then it's possible that the reader that you got with the card may just be faulty.
Not knowing what adapter you are using is a problem. I had similar problems with my first SDHC card and finally went to a local office supply store (Staples) and bought a "Sandisk MobileMate+ USB Memory Card Reader" for $15. It is a memory stick sized device and it accepts the SDHC MicroSD cards directly in it's slot. This works great on any PC so far.
It just may be the reader.
thanks!
This is a nightmare on elm street scenario.
I have finally tracked it to a faulty card reader, so i purchased another one. This one works and we have another problem - cannot copy data file path is too deep???????????
I am openeing another thread for that
Thanks to every1 for trying various solutions
I'm guessing you got a bad card..which is going to happen a lot with these high-cap cards, at least for a while. I am assuming you are using the small, plastic USB reader that came with the 8 gb card....that plugs directly into a USB socket? If not...I can tell you right now..the "older" adapters will NOT work with 4/6/8 gb cards. By this, i mean the adapter/reader that usually comes with the cards in the package. Also, it may sound silly..but make SURE you didnt, or are not, forcing the card into the phone/reader backwards...i know it's silly, but it's damn easy to do..and it usually trashes the card. My 8 gb just got in tonight...and it's working like a champ. I'm guessing you got a bad card. best of luck.
This is crazy. My phone reads the card just fine, but the card readers I have do not work period. 8G SDHC
Strange problem here, when I have an SD card in my Tilt, it won't connect to to my PC. Take the card out it connects fine.
Any thoughts?
Do you have Card Export II instaled on your phone?

- Does it connect incorrectly or does it even not connect at all? Stock ROM? homebrewed? Dutty's? ...
- Ever tried to chkdsk your SD-Card? Plug it in any cardreader, attach it to your computer and perform a checkdisk - maybe there is a small screwup in the filesystem.
- Windows Media Player has the behaviour in detecting my card when I plug in my Kaiser; maybe a possible filesystem error holds ActiveSync / Windows Mobile DC from connecting correctly?
Just my five cents. So long...
I've had the same problem for years now, I still haven't figured out how to fix it. I narrowed it down to being a sync problem with windows media player. I sure hope we can find a fix for this someday.
All I want to do is transfer some ringtones that I made to my Tilt, from my Linux OS. Is this possible somehow ? Or do I really have to dig up my older than hell XP laptop, then install proprietary software in order to transfer files ? Thanks.

I tried SynCE ages ago, but I eventually gave up. I usually stick to the microSD card or SSH.
same here, I've tried a ton of different things, but all have failed...
I think pof has got it working on an ubuntu machine, why don't you pm him?
Discouraging, but I appreciate the honesty. I'll try and PM pof and see what he says. Otherwise, I guess it'll be all micro SD transfers. Thanks again.
Doug
I just download everything.. I put it in a folder tree structure based on the type of file (Communications, Schedule, Utility, etc) and then I access it from the phone from the web.
Sometimes also push things over bluetooth.
You could also attempt the Card Export / WM5torage solution; which lets you access the storage card as a USB Mass Storage device; and no proprietary software is needed for that route. I think I read that someone had that working in linux.

What I have done with my Ubuntu laptop is simply send the file via Bluetooth. It's a little slow, but it works like a champ!

Is the card export thing a program I download from somewhere, or a cab file that enables the micro sd card to be read as a ums device ? That sounds like a perfect solution.
Bluetooth sounds good too, but my PC isn't (I didn't install one) equip with a BT card. The Macbook Pro, on the other hand... (which I've had a ***** of a time trying to get set up with the Tilt thus far...)

Ive got a Macbook Pro. What problems have you had? Maybe I can help you out a bit? Ive had no problems so far. Bluetooth file exchange works seamlessly for smaller programs and apps. When it comes to flashing roms, just use the microsd card with a card reader and rename the .nbh to KAISIMG.nbh
If you have any questions feel free to ask me.
Also, you can get a USB Bluetooth dongle these days for all of 15USD on Ebay. I would definitely invest in one for the other computer
hi! all,
here’s a question for “experts”:
how can a SD slot be SDIO enabled?
I mean:
is it a question of electronic components onto the motherboard of the slot?
(I’ll have no more problem as far as there’s no solution)
is it relevant with the firmware of the slot?
(I always may ask the manufacturer if he plans any upgrade)
is it a problem of driver for that slot?
(I can look on the web if something can work)
is it a matter of registry?
(I will search for the proper tweak or hack)
WHY THIS QUESTION?
because I would like to use a Toshiba Bluetooth SD card in the SD slot of a netbook
and as I can’t have it working easily, I searched on the web and found those pages at Toshiba website:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/?page=faq/bluetoothnotworking
see 3rd section “SD Bluetooth Card works only with Toshiba PDA's.“ leading to ...
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/?page=toshiba/compatibility-list
see “Bluetooth SD Card 2” in “PC Bluetooth Stack:” section leading to ...
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/?page=toshiba/sdbt2
thank you for your hints
Laurent
would say unless it's a pretty cheap sdreader it would support sdio also
but on pc's I think in most cases you would have to write the driver yourself from scratch
thanks for your hint Rudegar
BUT you mean driver or firmware?
because driver is the Microsoft Windows generic one:
SD host controller etc. ...
and this driver is supposed to support SDIO function ...
BUT how to activate this???
that's the question
regards
Laurent
not firmware
not driver for the sdcard reader
driver for the SDIO card giving access to whatever function it offers
and no a wm driver would not work and
it's not a big chance of too many SDIO card makers make win32 drivers for their devices
I have tried many times to copy files to the SD card in the Nexus One. I can mount it but it will only stay connected for a short time. It's seems as soon as any other application tries to read it the phone dismounts the SD card. I can tell it to mount again but then whatever program I'm using crashes because the SD card has disappeared in the middle of a file transfer.
I also tried Bluetooth but while they can see each other they both error if I try to pair one with the other.
Not having much luck with this phone. My old HTC Cruise has no problems with this.
Ok, I disconnected and unpaired the Plantronics headset and then was able to pair with the PC, after a few tries. The android Bluetooth implementation seems to be a little buggy. I was then able to re-pair the Plantronics headset.
But I did not know that the Bluetooth conection can't be used for file sync.
How do you all get music and such on this thing? The Nexus One Dock don't even have a data connection. This just seems so odd.
If I take the Micro SD out and put it into a SD adaptor it works fine on the same Windows 7 (64bit) box. I also have a scanner, printer, digitizer, Microsoft IR Port, Bluetooth and numerous flash drives that work fine on the Windows 7 install.
In the Nexus One as soon as I try to run a Check Disc on the SD card it dismounts or crashes the PC. In the USB SD adaptor it works fine.
What is work with the Nexus One's USB and Bluetooth? do you think they will fix it?
I had a similar problem with an older version of cyan mod.
It would unmount the sd card as soon as I started copying files to it but making a new folder or draging files off it was okay.
Have you rooted/loaded a custom rom?
No mods. But I've had some luck.
I had it plugged into a powered USB 2.0 hub and then when it did not work I tried a few ports right on the back of the PC and still it had problems. Then when I was testing with the SD adapter, I had it in the USB port on the Dell display. Just for the heck of it I tried it and it worked. What the heck? I guess maybe some of the ports on the back are underpowered along with my powered USB hub but like everything else I have works fine, including my HTC Cruise. ???
I'm going to try the port that the Dell display is using and the some of the other ports. Seems like the Nexus One is on the edge and you need a "to the spec" USB port. Gots to love technology.
