I've just bought a pqi 1gb sd card but can't upload more than 716 mb of data even though settings on my pda tell me I've got 976 mb to play with and there's 257 mb free. When I try and copy using active sync I can't. It tells me there is insufficient room - yet the display shows there is 257mb free. why? Is the card defective?
Have you tried using a card reader? Activesync seems to be problematic when dealing with large files.
Thanks, but I don't have an sd card reader. It seems to read fine if I delete some of the files and replace them again but then it sticks at 715mb. These are mp3 files so not particularly large. Even if i try and add word or excel files it still won't let me beyond 715mb.
Well.. actually my PQI SD 1Gb card is loaded with 875Mb and i have more or less 99Mb free. I used activesync to copy the files on the PDA, so i think that your problem is not on the activesync connection. I have an i-mate PDA2K, and with activesync 3.71 and PQI SD 1Gb card i don't have the problem that you found, maybe your card is defective!
Funny, I've just deleted everything from my 512mb sd card and yet the pda settings are telling me I've got 19.94 mb in use on the card even though I've nothing on that card? I'm wondering if my settings are correct? Can you set an upload limit onm the xda2?
Ignore last post. No probs with my 512 cards. This 1gb card must be defective. Why else can't I upload more than 715mb of mp3s to the card?
Try pocket Mechanic and Format yor SD-Card with another FAT system.
I have the o2 xdaii and a 512mb sd memory card in it which in memory storage card properties reports it as 487.89mb. But even when i format the card put it in the xda ii, I still can not copy anything larger then aprox 200mb: where is the extra 312mb going?
Try transferring the files after formatting with a card reader/writer, there seems to be a problem with large files over activesync.
Hi everyone,
I upgraded my XDA succesfully by using the SD method with a card from my digital camera. After that, I formated the sd card with the card reader then I plugged it in my digital camera.
And here is my problem, the digital camera doesn't recognise anymore this Hi-speed 512 sandisk. I tried everything to recover it but no success at all until now. :twisted:
I understand by using the OSI image tools, the card has been formated in a special way to make space for the file NK.nb1
So if someone has got any similar experience, be welcome to give me any tips for a solution.
Thanks.
i just formatted my card with my xda
and pocked mechanics
My digital camera has the option to format while in the camera, have you checked the built in menus? You could try formatting your card in the card reader with FAT16 if it is FAT 32 at the moment, if it is FAT 16 NOW then try FAT32.
Hi guys,
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry I forgot to say. My XDA card reader and my PC card reader don't have any problem to read or write or format this SD card, Which I did. FAT and FAT 32, but there's no result for my digital camera.
Always the same message: " unable to use the card" and the SD Card was working perfectly before.
One strange thing I have noticed (I think) is that the memory capacity is different now. I get 6 Mb more than before.
Otherwise, yes I tried to format the card with the OS from my digital camera but without any success as the camera doesn't let me any possibility to access to the menu with the card plugged in it. I'm stuck.
Before to use OSI image tools the capacity was;
FAT: 477 MB
After:
FAT: Free space : 507109376 bytes => 483 MB
FAT 32: Free space: 506372096 bytes =>482 MB
I'm just wondering if maybe a header from this SD card was wiped out during the process. Maybe some of you guys know a software who could read and write on this special part of the SD card, then I would compare and maybe repaire it.
Thx
Hi,
Is it possible that someone try to plug a sd card who was used to flash a PDA in a digital camera minolta Z3 or other Z...?
I would be interrested to get a feed back on the result.
Cheers,
Finally after several Emails to (Minolta and Sandisk) I got a valuable answer from Minolta who confirmed my first thought. BTW, Sandisk never replied to me, I’m very disappointed by them. Fortunately, there are others competitors in this sector.
Guess what for the next new SDcard…
So:
On each SD card (Others models certainly too), there are several important information on the boot. This information is necessary to inform the digital camera on the technical specification from the SDcard. If the original boot is missing or corrupted, the digital camera doesn’t recognize the SD card properly and screen the following message “Unable to use this card”.
And here is the solution to recover an original boot for your SD card. You should use SDFormatter V1.1 .
Now my SD card is like a new one(only joking) .
Cheers,
I have a PNY 128 GB SD Card formatted as external in Marshmallow--in an HTC One M8.
I have a directory of music on a PC. Recently the size of this directory exceeded 59GB (64GB).
I keep the SD Card on my phone synced to this directory with SMBSync or FolderSync ---top rated apps.
As soon as the PC directory got bigger than 64 GB, files transferred to the SD Card in the phone were corrupted. My music player Power Amp said "Failed to Play File"
-------------------------------
1. I verified that the files were corrupted by comparing MD5 checksums on the SD Card files versus the same files on the PC.
2. The SD Card is PNY 128GB. Windows can fill it up, so its not a counterfeit card.
3. Card was formatted in Android as external, then ejected put in SD Card Reader-- Windows checked all sectors, no problem.
4. Tried to Sync with two different top rated apps via SMB protocol/wifi...files are corrupted.
Has anyone seen this?
I just bought a new sandisk sd card 16gb, but everytime i put files in it, the files keeps corrupting. For example i put a song into the sd card, then after about a minute the songs cant be played again.... and when i copy some game files (data, obb, etc) from my pc, the files can be seen on pc but not on android, and when i restart the android, the files are gone and my sd card is empty again...... how to fix it?
P.S. i tries SD Tools speed test and this is the result
