WM6.5 ROM for 43MB storage - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hello,
I cannot resize my storage to 60MB for some reason.
I'm receiving well known error:
FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL DRIVE failed.
However is there any WM6.5 ROM that will work with 43MB storage?
This device will not be used much often so maybe 43MB will be sufficient.
Thanks in advance,
Drazen

i think our problem is same.
i've installed WM 6.5 with 43MB rom too
i think we have to downgrade and expand the main storage to 60MB
after that, upgrade it.
(see Chef_tony sticked post )

I already try that without success (i tried other suggestions also).
Is there any ROM that will work with 43MB storage?
WM6.1 or WM6 ROM is also accepted.

You must downgrade to WM2003 only than you can rezise the Storage!!!!

huh, I already tried that without success. I tried few different WM2003 ROMs and other stuff but still receive same error.
However I manage to install your ROM (Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 21888) and it works with 43MB memory.
This device is not for me so I'm happy that it works and this is all! Job done
Thank you anyway!

some devices have another DOC chip installed and therefore the storage canot be extended with the tool from my tutorial, but any rom should still work fine.

thanks ,

Unable to see or access \Storage folder

I'm currently running WM5 patch 2 but I've now started havings problems unhiding and unlocking Ext ROM on my Device. I keep getting the following error message:
"FL_IOCTL_BDTL_HW_PROTECTION - The parameter is incorrect"
Athough when I click ok I still get a debug message saying "extrom unlocked" but when I browse my BA, I am unable to locate \Storage folder. Somebody please help!. :shock:
Hi
This is simple.
When you installed WM2005, you re-formatted the ROM.
WM2005 uses 'persistent storage' automatically.
This means that all volatile data is kept in ROM (not RAM).
You can't interfere with that.
To put it simply. There's no extrom or 'storage' in WM2005.
Thank you for the information Robal. Does this mean I can nolonger install programs into the ROM i.e IIWPO (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=IIWPO)?

You cannot. Even if you place a file to extended ROM it would not be instaled after hardreset. WM5 on BA knows nothing about extrom.
Thank you Mamaich!
There another thing bugging me. When I check my Memory Usage, it displays something like this:
Storage
Total: 60.78 MB
In use: 44.21 MB
Free: 17.45 MB
Program
Total: 123.15 MB
In use: 29.77 MB
Free: 93.36 MB
It seems to me that there's no way of me manipulating memory usage i.e. allocate some memory from Program to Storage. Can this be achieved?[/b]

WM6 & USB Mass Storage

With wm6 i'have no more usb mass-storage funcionality!!
I've two programs and they says:
1) WM5torage: "Can't open the selected card/disk device"
2) Card Export: "Can't .... missing dlls or corrupted registry entries"
What can i do?
Anyone with this problem?
thanks!!!
wm5torage works for me. there may be some application (process) running from (or use) you're storage card.
NoOne who can help me?!?
Thanks!
I can't use WM5torage too,I think that is the software's problem.
I use ver. 1.6 and it works for me. try to use a newer ver. or a older one from yours.
WM5torage also works fine for me w\ crossbow.

I have to disable all of my today screen programs. They are installed on my SD card and WM5Storage won't run if they are enabled.
had you tried hard reseting already?
First start Wm5torage and switch to mass storage, then connect the USB!
When active sync is allready connected, i was not able to use Mass Storage and

Problem with storage in c_shekhar's ROM

I can't understand this ROM.
I have installed it, and despite the fact that everything seems to be working well:
1. Instead of 30MB of storage I get 14.5MB
2. From these 14MB 13MB are already in use
3. This leaves me around 1.5MB to work with.
It is enough to try to sync my contacts (400 items) to get the memory completely stuffed and the device stuck.
Can anyone explain where to continue from here???
Thanks
Helio
Read the sticky thread "30 MB storage Reminder" and please do not cross post.
read the thread first.. and search..

unlock and unhide your EXTROM before you flash, use HIMA_DOC_tools to reformat your storage so that it will show 30MB instead of 14MB, then flash with WM6, actually, this is not ROM-specific instruction, but you need to do this with WM5 and WM6 ROMS to increase your storage capacity. but if you are happy with 14MB storage, then dont do the steps i detailed.
Many thanks.
Regarding the cross post, I apologyze for that, I was trying to delete my message in the other thread and couldn't find where to do it.
Just done it. Worked like Magic.
I don't know how I missed the link to the memory-related thread on the original upgrade thread.
Again, thanks to all that bothered to help.

Problem solved!

GoogleMaps or TCPMP on internal storage ?

Hi,
Does anyone have ever install GoogleMaps or TCPMP on the internal storage of the Diamond ?
Whenever I tried to install them on the internal storage, they keep install themself on the internal memory of the diamond.
I've look into the cab and I've notice that the path is %ProgramFiles% ....
Don't tell me that nobody ever tried to install TCPMP or GoogleMaps on their Internal Storage
It seems that none of my programs are installed on the internal storage indeed, even if I choosed that option at setup...
Ok, so it's not a "only my Diamond" issue
Maybe a "all Diamond" or "Orange Diamond" issue ...
I'm gonna test on my old Prophet tonight.
Interesting...just checked my install (supposedly to Internal Storage...) and its on the device!!!
googlemaps wont install on anything except the device memory, even if you tell it to do otherwise. this is a google issue, not a diamond one
I have copy them to the internal memory, and delete them from phone. Then I make new shortcuts and I have place them to windows\start menu\programs.

Glad to hear that
So it's the same problem with TCPMP
You need a special vers of TCPMP for WM6.1 search the forum for it.

Card export or WM5torage dont work on AthineOS 3.2

Hi!
First, sorry my poor english.
Im flashed the new AthineOS 3.2, and cant do the Card Export2 or WM5torage to work.
The message of new hardware appears on windows, shows "Mass Storage Media Device", but dont appear on Windows Explorer.
When i disconnect the cable, windows explorer show one removable device for 2 seconds more or less, but this device does not contain the name of my card.
What is happening? My card works well when i put in a usb memory reader.
Thanks a lot for the help!!
Paulo Alexandre
It's known WM5torage is dodgy, but CardExport should work. You should search that ROM's thread for other reports of this problem and/or post there as it's most likely related to the ROM.
Thanks man.
Will search on a AthineOS 3.2 Thread.
I have this problem only after the flashing... before the Athine i used one Dutty 6.0 Rom, and i liked.
have a Dutty WM 6.1 Rom?
Thanks!!!
