Kaiser Memory

Hi
how can i increase my memory card facility in the kaiser.Please advice anyone
erm, buy a bigger memory card?
Welcome to the forums, fckblack!
Unless you're extremely handy with a sodering iron & small PCBs, I don't suggest you try to change out the memory chips...
Xtreme_G get's the door prize for the right answer!!! Buy a bigger MicroSD card.
FWIW, thread moved, this has nothing to do with ROM Development.

Here's a stp-by-step instruction on how to do it:
1)Take a good look at your hand set(it's going through a by-pass sugery)
2)Open the memory slot located underneath.
3)Take out the memory card(be very cautious, keep a look on the heart beat monitor)
4)Saw open your brain compartment.
5)Unplug your brain from your spinal chord and put it in the slot and close the door.
brains can have an infinite storage capacity(considering your case, more than infinite). OH I 4GOT THE FINAL STEP: attach the memory card to your spinal chord and close your brain compartment.

I can see you are no medical person, because it's the wrong order with possible great damage.
Switch 5 and 6: first insert the memory card in the brain otherwise it goes terribly wrong!
(and I'm not British)
maybe these people offer it for other devices too

Micro SIM Adapters: What Brand Is The Best?

The last round I bought from Amazon was awful. Some wouldn't even fit my SIM. I need a couple quality adapters for when I flop back between the GN and the 900. Suggestions?

why do companies use micro-sim cards, like do they want us to damage our sim pin connectors on our phones while switching between micro and regular. Oh, wait I forgot "normal" people don't switch, damit we are screwed. Back on topic, It's hard finding a good, if you find a good one let me know also.

Indeed. I had a fantastic one for years and it broke recently. I've been unable to remember when I got it from and there were no markings on it to identify it by.

Okay, that might be hard since, I switched carrier and they don't have micro-sim cards... If you want to see how I position the micro card I can show that.
i found a really good one for just 3€ in a Chinise store here in italy, it has no brand but it works just fine, i can put my iphone microsim inside my father old BB and in my old Nokia e75 without any problem. I think it's just a bit of luck since it's a cheap piece of plastic.

[Q][FIXED] HTC One Dual Sim (802w) killing SD Cards??

Hello,
I'm having a strange problem with my newly acquired HTC One 802w (M7_DUG). As you may know, this version has a slot for an external SD Card.
Coming from the Defy I had a 32GB Class 10 Samsung SD Card that I installed on the One. A few days later (always running on stock ROM) I notice that the SD Card is no longer recognized. I then switched to a 4GB Class 4 Kingston SD Card just to see if that one worked well, but no, it also stopped being recognized a few days later. On the last try yesterday I used a 8GB Class 2 nobrand SD Card and today is fried again!
When I try to connect them to the computer they are not recognized (nor I can format them) and the cards are hot as hell! I mean REALLY hot. This obviously does not let me dig further because I unplug them right away. This leads me to believe that there's some kind of short circuit inside the card.
I honestly don't know what to do as obviously I don't want to keep kililng sd cards! Anyone experiecing the same problem?
Here are my specs:
HTC One 802w M7_DUG
ROM MaximusHD 1.0.2 Rooted
Unlocker bootloader
S-ON
EDIT: Solution here
EDIT 2: This seems to apply to BLACK models only. SILVER model seems unaffected from this issue.
No. i use a 64 gb samsung micro sd for 3 month now in my dual. All working fine.
Hi! I have the same problem - one of my SD cards died in 802w... And some other man from our russian forum 4pda also had such problem.
My idea of what happens is that it's just the mechanical damage. There are some projections on the inside of the back cover which are supposed to hold SD and SIM cards in place so they don't slip out of slot (?), but the problem is they're placed too close to the slot's end. So if you close the back cover that projection may press on SD card's end and just cracks it in two pieces.
At least that's what happened with my microSD... First I didn't notice it but then checked and it's really cracked. So this may be an answer - careful people tell that cards work normally, and strong people like us [ ] experience dead cards...

Thank you for your suggestions. I will try with another card and see what happens. I will report back.:good:
SOLUTION!
Well...sorry for the late reply but took me a long time to dig into this.
As @vitalif mentions the SD Cards suffers a mechanical damage. This is due to the pressure received from the protuberance in the removable back cover that should supposedly keep the SD card in place (not needed though as card/SIMS are physically held by the slot, but c'est la vie!)
The first thing I tried is to remove the small dent all Micro SD cards have but these cards are very sensible and the circuitery reaches this place as well, so I ended up ruining a few of them.
The solution I found was to use a dremel to remove that protuberance from the back cover as you can see on the attached photos. This has to be done with patience and probably better to have experience with these tools.
With this method I have been using the same SD Card for the past two months with no problems at all!
very interesting, i use my samsung microsd card from the begining and not damage at all. Maybe only black version have this problem , mine is silver and i open cover almost once per day .
802d in silver here and never faced sd card issue , using it since august.
using silver and no problems for past 5 months.
This seems to be a black edition only problem so far....any silver edition out there with this problem?
Same problem on black 802d model
The phone (black 802d) just broke my Kingston 32Gb microSDHC in half.
The back lid was not laying flat on the back since it was pushing against the sdcard, probably in my pocket, it got squeezed tighter, applying all the pressure via the back-panel extrusion onto the sdcard, which cracked it. Lost all my data

Yeah, is a pain in the neck. I also lost all my data.

So far this seems to be a BLACK edition problem only.

I recently bought a new SILVER edition htc one 802d and then i purchased a 32gb sandisk uhs micro sd.
Don't know why it killed the micro sd after 3 weeks, so it appears to be all htc one dual sim problem not the black edition only.

You could just get a free sim card from any provider that does them in original size with micro already cut into it then snap out micro sim section & what left is a quality adaptor to use with you current micro sim ...
can also be found on eBay if really need to ...

HD2 SIM not orking
@ [email protected]
U have to Flash your Firmware / Radio again! During ur Flashing Progress there`s a Problem...Any HD2 can read a Micro SIM or an normal SIM Card. You can use an Adapter and it must work! When it not works you have to Flash the Firmware again!
Trust me....

It is possible for firmware issue but also possible bad micro adaptors are positioning the sim badly or have even damaged the contacts in the sim slot.
I have used micro, nano & even smaller cut sims from dual sim adaptor in the HD2 & all work well as long full size adaptor positions them correctly.

I'm wondering the same, I have found a few on ebay, one on Amazon and some direct shipped from China, I don't mind the waiting on the shipping, and don't have a broken tray. Wanted the dual sim/sd card tray, so I can see if my US Mate 10 Pro will be able to use an SD card if I do order and get one. I know 128 gb is plenty, and if it doesn't work, I'm OK with that. Just like to keep pic's and music and some data on an sd card.
if you use the dual sim tray you also lose the sd card slot.

The Pro doesn't have a sd card slot.
And from what I've read it's missing the sd card chip/reader pins so it probably won't work anyway, even if you manage to hack something together.
