6GB microSDHC on 8525 - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

will this work on any cooked version of WM6? can anyone confirm who has it?
^^Sandisks site says it only supports up to 2gigs but its been confirmed working for the 4gigger
i can upgrade my order of a 4gigger to a 6 for only $17 more......but i need to confirm that it will work
could there....would there be any limitations in the future for larger sizes such as the upcoming 8gigger?

It will work only with some cooked WM6 ROMs as they have applied SDHC drivers in their ROMs. It will not work with original WM6 Roms.

hmm find your reply kinda vague if not erroneous. but someone do correct me if i am wrong.
aren't cooked roms (newer if not all) based on original wm6 roms?
and i would think 4gb sdhc (and above ?) WILL WORK on wm6 roms irregardless if cooked or not... think this was covered in some other thread.

an oh to the OP.. same question.. where are you getting the 6gb SDHC? should also warn you of counterfeit cards that are out. but if your seller is legit, id be interested.. although i just got my 4gb SDHC..

4GB, 6GB, 32GB it doesn't matter. If it's SDHC, it'll work. SD 3.0 cards will not work however.

ROM Versions
Correct, 4, 6, 32, all should work fine IF the WM6 ROM supports SDHC. Re comment above, no, not all WM6 support SDHC, for example the earlier LVSW ROM's didn't but the most recent do. Apologies, I am not sure which versions do but if you look in the details on the first post for each of the ROM's out there they usually state if SDHC is supported.

Here's where to go. It's scheduled to arrive there today. I will report on compatibility with VP3G asap.

Questions:
1. What version of phone do you have ie; 100, 200, 300?
2. Which ROM are you running?
3. Source of the card - EBay, internet, retail?
4. Name of the company that sold it to you
5. Brand & model # of card?
6. Was it bulk packed or retail packed?
7. Country location of seller?
8. Price you paid not including shipping
It almost sounds like you were sold a 4 and told it was a 6 based on the 3.954GB figure.

ok....based on ur responses i changed to 6GB for $17 more ($81w/free ship from CompSource)....the 4GB just began shipping today but since i made the switch (just barely) was able to hold out for the 6GB with an ETA of Monday....hella worth it to get an extra 2gigs for that price!
oh...card is from one of (if not) the best manufacturers....SanDisk so its legit & being sold by a reputable retailer

8GB SDHC on Jasjar???

hi I've had a look on the forum and I think the issue may be new - not discussed before. I seem to have some spare cash and wanted to buy a 8GB SDHC for my XDA Exec/Jasjar . However I haven't found any indication on the feasibility of this . anyone had any experiences positive or even negative ??
I'd be prepared to flash a different firmware to the device if that were to help matters.
thanks

Hmm it would be awesome to get SDHC cards working in Jasjar. Truly i havent tried SDHC cards in the jasjar but i speculate it wont work. Good luck
Someone posted 8GB cards are not working only 4GB so far
true! Transcend 8GB isn't working
i've tried it myself.
I can confirm that SDHC doesn't appear to work (out of the box) in the Universal. It just doesn't recognise there's a card present at all.
I am still investigating formatting the device in a different way (as discussed in other postings on this site) but i'm not terribly hopeful.
Try it on wm6
well , I bought an 8gb a-data v2 sdhc and it currently does not work . thing is , none of my memory card readers read it either . I'll have to get a reader that sees it to be able to say it's "broken" or not .
thanks for your input - if anyone else has anything to add it'd be nice
Well, maybe it is a late answer, but I did buy a 4GB SDHC card, actually I didn't know it is SDHC till I arrived home!).
Anyways, it didn't work on my JasJar nor on my laptop. I solved the issue for the laptop by downloading a fix that will enable WinXP to read SDHC cards (the whole matter is software based by the way, hardware is the same).
As for JasJar, it only recognize the card if you go to the 'About' icon in 'Settings' it will tell you that the expansion slot is in use - other than that the card does not exist!
Anyone got any updates?
cheers ...
hello fahapro ,
since then I have upgraded the firmware on the xda exec to one of the latest winmobile 6 incarnations as they have released various patches for sdhc use.
have a look at the stickies here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=357
usually the first page of each firmware mentions sdhc compatibility.
currently using my 8GB sdhc I was talking about previously
So the SDHC patches don't work on WM5?
I'm waiting for a definitive answer about the patches; and do they work with WM5. Some say they do; some they won't? And from what you described it's a software problem and not hardware issue which has already been discussed. So now I'm more confused than I was before LOL.
My 8gb transcend sdhc class 6 card is seen only as a 4gb with sdhc.cab in wm5.
In wm6 works fine.
Hi again,
Yesterday I found this article http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=339526&goto=newpost it is about a newly released WM6 ROM, didn't try it yet, but, from the comments posted I guess it works with SDHC ...
As for WM5 I do not know of any patches for SDHC, I gave up WM5 long time ago

So then it might be worth it to buy the 8GIG and either wait for a specific patch for WM5 or just go ahead and upgrade to WM6.
I suggest that you go for WM6.

Sorry buddy but thats a Mini SD, not Micro SD.

There are Micro SD 4GB coming out but they're slated to be Micro SDHC which requires you to have a compatible device. I asked HTC if the Artemis we compatible with it, the answer is no.
i bought a 4gb micro sd card on the cebit and it works in the p3300!
good news!
which one is it? have you been able to fill it all the way, with no problems?
4GB does not mean SDHC
4GB is the limit for a non-HD SD card, and micro-SD is the same "electrically".
I tried a non-HD 4GB SD card on an MDA compact (T-Mobile) that has an OMAP 850 CPU, (like the Artemis) and it works fine. So... non-HD 4GB micro-SD cards should work fine.
It would be great if the HD cards worked, but HD-SC use a different type of addressing (i.e. you have to up the registers in the card in a different way) so it might not work )
What we need is someone to try a SD-HC in another OMAP-850 based device, and see if it works.
see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SD_Card#SD_and_SDHC_compatibility_issues
Anyone know anything about micro mmc?

Can you buy a 4Gb non-HD micro-SD card?
Firstly, apologies if you see this twice because I posted this question in the main forum and realised I should have replied to this thread for those subscribed to it. (newbie)
After reading through this thread there's been some advice that suggests you can purchase 4Gb non-ND micro-SD cards, however after searching I can't find any. I realise HD will not work with the Armentis/HTC/Orbit.
If you have a 4Gb card working could you please reply to the post with a link to the actual product, or supply product details.
Many thanks

LOL, I use a 4 GB MMC Card since 1,5 years in my Magician without problems at all...
Still there is a little hope. Nobody ever stated that Trinity will work with mini SDHC cards. Nevertheless actually it supports this format. WM6 based customized roms made for 3600 do contain new card driver fully supporting SDHC. Though it is compatible with WM6 OS only.
I purchased a 4gb SDHC card (Sandisk) for use in my XDA Orbit (Stock WM5). It does not work - not even recognised as having a card inserted. Has anybody confirmed it works with the unofficial WM6 roms?

SD Card size

Hi Guys,
I've read through the forum and looked at the wiki, but I've not seen any mention of what the largest size SD card supported.
I've got an o2 XDA Orbit, and I was thinking about getting one of the new 4GB micro SD Cards, but I'm not sure if it would be supported.
anyone know? TIA

If the card you are looking at is sdhc it will not work in the artemis.
There are some (reportedly) non-sdhc 4gb cards out soon and in theory they should as do 4gb non-sdhc minisd cards in the wizard.
So at the moment 2gb is the max - i would choose a fast one like the sandisk ultra.
The card I was looking at was a standard SD card not SDHC, I found it on Play
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/4-/3359487/Sandisk-Micro-SD-4GB/Product.html
Interestingly when I was looking at it this afternoon it was in-stock, now its marked as Pre-order...

meschle,
Do you happen to know if Artemis is able to work with microSDHC cards provided its firmware has been changed to the new one containing WM6 OS. (You might have heard O2 Germany has already issued WM6 ROM for Orbit).

That needs to be verified but i doubt if it will work as it has not on say the hermes with wm6 - but your right needs to be tested.
I asked because I 'd been informed that new customized hand made firmwares for Trinity issued by lvsw and mun. The authors stated the support of mini SDHC, and some users have already confirmed that. I am not sure whether drivers came together with WM6 or were extracted manually from other devices.
Orbit WM6
My Orbit is updated to o2's WM6 version and "will not" recognise a 4GB SDHC card ;-(

I think that's the problem... The stock T-Mo ROM won't recognize higher capacity cards. You can try flashing (installing) the HTC 1.33 ROM or Kavana's/rickwyatt's 6.1 ROMs to enable usage of a larger card.
2 Gig is not a SDHC amount, the T-Mo Rom Should accept it.
Can you put the card in an adapter and access it from your PC?
(To Make sure the card is not corrupt?)
yeh i have a couple files on it that i put on it just so there was something on the card. so i know the 2gig card isnt bad.
Try this first before you put on a new ROM (although you really should put on a new ROM):

It is *supposed* to enable SDHC support (cards that are larger than 2GB). I never had the issue as I went with a non-Tmobile ROM (SDHC support is enabled in the non-Tmobile 6.0 and 6.1 ROMs by default) from the get-go. It might not have any effect on the threadstarter's problem, but it's something simple to try just in case.
Honestly, it's probably an off-brand card that the threadstarter is trying to use (that would be my guess), but you never know. It could just be a bug in the OS... Maybe the card is formatted wrong...maybe his Dash is having hardware issues...it could be any number of things (just like with desktop computers - this is a computer after all).
try formatting the card, sometimes the companies place files on the card to be read for certain devices. Formatting the card might work for you.

PNY cards are horrible, more trouble then they are worth. Toshiba makes these cards primarly for Cameras, so putting them in other devices (smartphones) have unpredictable results. Stick with SanDisk, they cost more but are worth it.

NEVER buy cards from ebay. 99.999999% of them are fake capacity which will report an incorrect size to device/pc etc. When you try and go over the real capacity data will corrupt.
Also we already have plenty of topics on sdcards, your question is already well covered. No need to create a new topic.
