well for the HD2 running WP7 it works (http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1414126.html) and considering that HD2 and HD7 basically have the same hardware I'm pretty sure it will work. Also HD7 is "newer" than HD2
somwehre in the turotial thread which talks about upgrading the sdcard for the HD7
i recall reading someone having success with a 64gb sdcard
U can always try .
but make sure u unlock yr old sdcard with the xmod cab before removing in case yr new card dont work, u need to put back yr old sdcard again
basically sdcard in wp7 is locked and u remove it and turn on the phone, the OS will think the card is locked and will not recognise , because u did not unlock it first before removing.
So dont ever do this without unlocking the old sdcard.
if u unlocked it, u can format it in the PC and put it back to the phone again it will recognise it as a fresh empty card and issue a new lock and flash to it
This is a security mechanism for privacy reasons built into wp7 Called TFAT in case someone gets hold of yr phone and removes the internal storage to read its contents if yr phone has a lock screen password . So they can still remove the internal storage to read it in PC. To Prevent this WP7 uses TFAT system
The TFAT file system is best suited for non-removable media, such as NAND and NOR flash memory. Removable media can also use TFAT, but there are potential issues when attempting to use a TFAT removable card on a Windows desktop OS. Because there is no implementation of TFAT on Windows desktop OSs.
So this why wp7 removed card are not redeable in desktop win OS
To remove this TFAT limitation u need to unlock the sdcard with the xmod cab
You can also format the card on symbian phone and make it work again normally
I think I read a post about it here, I'll get it.
But it is also true that SDXC cards use a different technology to SDHC

Nokia formatting only works on sdcard which have nodo OS in it
If u have upgraded to mango ,Nokia formatting method wont work .
With mango OS ,, u need to deploy the xmod storage unlock cab before removing it
After this u can format the sdcard in yr PC or desktop computer itself ( No nokia device needed)
If u dont use the xmod unlock cab, the card is locked forever, even nokia devices will not be able to format it

Hmm... I'll have to try the Nokia E63 the next time, if I can get my hands on one. I tried the N95 and it wouldn't recognize or format my original WP7 16gb SD card out of my HD7. I tried all kinds of phones, printer stations and cameras and nothing would work. I ended up flashing Dynamics 7 Mango version to the device and installed Storage Lock Cab via Cab Sender and unlocked 3 WP7 SD cards without any problems.

Use a digital camera or Media reader for your PC to format the miniSD Card.

This is the only way you will be able to do it as when you a a SD card dump it is raw so makes it so the card can not be read by anything till it has been formated!!!
you need to format your minisd, either through and SD card reader or camera. Goodluck! At least you got you wizard going.

PLEASE WRITE YOUR REVIEWS AFTER DOWNLOADING THE DRIVER
you are still have strong spirit to try SDHC card
Yup..even though i dnt have a SDHC card.but im planning on buying it
Not working
Not working for me. Besides, all those SDHC posts contain drivers that are different then on my Hima. The cab contains SDMemory.dll and SDBus.dll while my original drivers are SDMemory.dll and SDBusDriver.dll.
I adapted my registry to correct this difference, but that didn't help. No more Storage Card at all.
My guess is that it is not for normal SD but for micro SD, hence the different bus drivers.
For the record: I'm using the 7.0c of c_shekhar.
New link is also not working. Again not even after changing registry.
hmmmm....well lets see if some one else also comments abt it..

IMHO changing the file names would be a better way to try than changing registry.
@rvdrijt
Did u follow the instructions written at top
Yes. And then I had no more Storage Card link.
So then I tried hacking my reg, also without good results.
@Maggy
I've tried that before, but I could not remove the old SDBusDriver.dll. That's why I tried changing the reg. Any idea on how to remove the old one and then rename the new?
this might sound like a noob question,
over the universal forum they've figured out a working driver that supports at least an 8GB SDHC and I've tested it myself with a PQI 8GB and it works,
so I was just wondering if we can import that driver out to himalaya and make it work because from my understanding SDHC support is not based on the hardware rather than driver update for the device, and since it's been made for both WM5 and WM6/6.1 over there so technically it should work for our WM6 himalaya too, no?
just my 2 cents.
thanks..but the drivers are not the same..any way if you can attach the file maybe i will take a look..all the drivers i have tested just remove your atm functioning SD cards drivers also
This should be the latest SD driver that was used in Ranju's WM6.1 ROM,
but in case it's different, you might wanna take a look at the cooked ROM yourself as I'm not experienced with that.

is there any other way to do hard reset i mean programmcally or any other means
or jst replace the sd drivers

I think sk-tools can do a hard reset by software, maybe memmaid to, I don't know it exactly. But sk-tools I´m sure.
hi any free tool

Even if sktool is unregistered, this function isn't restricted, as I remember.
Hi thanx
yeah thast right just need to highlight at the beggning for hardreset

while hardreset push Camera and Recordbutten to get the early Bootmenu.
With Recordbutten you can select the Item and with Camerabutton you change status.

then push the Navbutton in some Direction.
This should erase all usersettings

I got pissed right now. After try an android on X1 and feel I like it, it's stucked at somewhat. So I soft reset it and now when log in to WinMo it asked me to format the SD Card, after i try it. the SD is till not detected.
Then plug USB Cable but still the computer just sound beep twice and show none in my Computer.
I try to remove the SD to my Aspen and Nokia 5800 but they also can't detect it. I have no micro SD reader or adapter so I can't try on PC.

"Please" would have been a nice addition here
Not sure what you might have messed up with Android, but to check the SD there's only two options:
get a new one and try again or
get yourself a µSD reader of any kind, shouldn't be too expensive
BTW: You say you installed Android and after soft reset you are in WinMo again? That doesn't sound like really having "installed" Android to me - might be an idea to post your question where you got whatever you installed on your phone to get the Android feeling.....

Android is installed and I had run it for days. Once upon time, in the middle of proccessing something, it stuck so I did a soft reset. Then I boot into Windows Mobile (not Android) -DualBOOT- and Windows Mobile ask me to format microSD Card but after it is formatted, the card is invisible. update: I borrow my friend's an imported SD Card, microSD is detected but the computer ask to insert in it.

Were you able to boot into WinMo before that "crash"?
Were you able to boot into Android after the crash?

It's Okay,
Yes no problem before. I'm not sure how my card formatted but it's original coming from the package.
Try to format SD card in computer with FAT32.
For dual boot you have make partition formated with Ext2 right? What prograd did you use for partitioning of SD? Minitool partition? Try to delete partitions used for Android.
Hi VSJ,

You should know that in X1 port Android, There are two types of releases: ones with ext2 partition and ones without. And I think this girl have android without EXT2 partition. Anyway question if Android can detect is is pretty lame, no offense, I think if the Storage Card isn't working how can you run the Android...
Don't you read that the card isn't detected. It's pretty clear, our problem that the card isn't even detected from OS File Explorer. How can that ur suggested software can detect it?
Hi VSJ, I want to update you. I've asked my friend w/o lucky and bring the card to SESC, I can assure you that SE won't guaranty SD Card.
Thank you for trying to help me.
Since the problem is occurred to many people, I dunno think that the Android only killed mine. I'm giving up. I think it's over a hardware issue.
The developer of the android also has no idea why the problem can be occurred.
As many of you may have seen, this website offers free gold-card for wp7 devices.
It requires the CID; However, i cant seem to find a way to retrieve the CID info of the memory inside the HD7, without having to take out the MicroSD-card (that can void the warranty)
Anyone knows any alternative way?
Thanks.

what for phone do you have ?
is it an hd7 , if it is you need a Y-cable , cardreader , wall charger , sd card (1 a 2 GB)
drop the sd card in a wm phone and use the psas software to get the CID , and order your goldcard .
format the sd (fat) and put the .img and the RUU_signed.nbh on the sd .
connect one side of the Y-cable to the charger , one to the cardreader and the last to the phone .
bring the phone in bootloader and flash (I didn't test this )
... Trying the same: with the other trick from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867366 I was able to see microSD available in Explorer, and checking its property I had a serial number... that fits on that webpage form. Will let you know. In the meanwhile Happy Christmass.

Ok, i have the image ,,goldcard,,
What to do now?
Same step: saved goldcard and also *.nbh files on phone extended memory, but now I do not know what to do...
Any help would be really appreciated.

please read my post again , you need a external SDCARD and a CARD READER .
if you wan't to use the internal sd then you first need to open your phone and take out the sd card , format it (LOL not working because the sd card can't be more as 2GB) and put the GOLDCARD:IMG on it (to format it use a nokia) and then put it in bootloader (3 colour) and then put in the sd card (on the sd are : .nbh and .img files) .
now the phone will gif you some options (flash or not)
with external process you are not able to put bootloader from SERIAL mode to USB mode (i suppose this is only zune driver can do). So this does not seem to be a way to do it...

I am playing with this to , here is a quote from the dev that made the goldcard for us.
viperbjk said:
Happy XMAS :
Go and get your WM7 or Android goldcard for free :
Link to the goldcard generator
In order to use the WM7 goldcard, just use an Host USB Cable (Developer Y-Cable) and connect a sdcard reader to it.
Edit :
For those who do not understand how to use the goldcard :
- Use any sdcard and a wm5 or android device to make the goldcard (Yet we do not know how to read the cid using WM7)
- Buy a Mini USB On the go Y-Cable like this one :
http://www.amazon.co.uk/DeLOCK-USB-...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1292614709&sr=8-1
Also buy a converter from standard usb to micro usb.
OR build a usb otg host cable by yourself.
- Get an external usb sdcard reader
- Connect the cable this way : Phone is connected to 1x usb sdcard reader and 1x usb port for power.
Then you can use your newly generated goldcard for flashing any HTC OEM Rom

just used this on the stock 16G card from the phone!! Works like a champ!!!!!
Going to find a pre-mango xbmod rom to try so I can see if it will unlock my 32G card...
Mods,
Can you please make this a sticky???
Tried it myself. Although it's a hassle to put a new Custom Rom on the phone because you lose all your data this tutorial really works!
My only problem was that DiskPart cleaned my SD Card but didn't want to create a partition. I had to remove and reinsert the MicroSDHC card, clean it again and then it worked like a charm.
+1 for making this a sticky. Could be extremely useful to lots of users and the rom that is used is available on all HTC 1st gen devices.
be nice if this SD_UNLOCK could be included in all custom ROMS!!!

if the custom rom supports cab sender then you can just send the dev_storageunlock to the device. it will persist even after hard reset but not flashing.
we just need rom buliders to start support cab sender and we will be good for everything. :0)

When you use an SD card in WP7 the card is no longer usable in any other phone/laptop/device etc.
The SD spec allows for the 'S' Secure password to be setup so only the device that knows the password, in this case the WP7 device you last Hard reset it in, can access the card.
You can remove this password using a nokia symbian device but not every one has access to one.
So the purpose of this tut is being able to use your own HD7 to remove that secure lock so the SD card can be read in any other phone/laptop/device etc. and format or in some cases dual boot to droid if you could be botherd to inflict your self with that rot.
Hope this helps.

Ok so does that also mean we can replace the hd7 card with another of our own purchased from off the shelf?

So if the sdcard , can be read by laptop, is IT possible to change its contents like down grade sol, is ECT while the card is in the laptop

Go check out the sticky on how to upgrade the memory in the HD7 to 32GB...
you can upgrade it, but you don't need this to upgrade it... This is so once a card is removed from the HD7 it can be used in other things. You can't take it out and modify it etc then put it back in...

Hi there.
Just want to say that my HD7 have Bootloaer(SPL-5.10) and the ROM in there does not support cabs install. But, I have HD2 and install HD2_Updatable_XBmod_Yuki_v2_native with the HD2, and follow the step in this thread in post one(1) and put in my 16GB from my HD7 and BINGO it UNLOCK the card.
Now I am using Android on the 16GB for my HD2 and the 32GB card for my HD7. I might end up switching it the other way round. Won't mind or worry cause now I can UNLOCK the card without any phone.
Thanks for your guide.
PEACE!!!

the card i want to use is a 8GB microSD class 2 but has no brand on it
its taken from an older smartphone around 2009
I am intending to install this card on the phone
Since its a class 2, it may be lower power consumption hence better battery life.

its taken from an older smartphone around 2009
I am intending to install this card on the phone
Since its a class 2, it may be lower power consumption hence better battery life.

Best bet is to do the crystal disk mark test on a PC before you install it to make sure it is fast enough. Save time.

Yes you can.
Make sure to do a format when you turn the phone on the 1st time (Power on with Vol+ and Vol- buttons pressed)
