I can't install software from PC through ActiveSYnc, it always prompt error message " storage card is not writable, make sure you have source .cab file..." in fact, my SD card has 200M free and is writable.
but i can install the .cab file into SD card from PPC instead.
any possible reasons?
my system XDA IIs : wm2003se ppc phone
hm interesting check your card's lock maybe it prevents from writing to it

The spec says that MMC is supported but it does not work.
Only SD works.
Anyone with other information?
It is working for me, no problem. However, sometimes, I will need to do reboot if the MMC disappear from File Explorer

I got the Qtek 9090, which XDAIII have you got?
1)How many file write operations have you performed on your mmc?
Each removable media has its own work term measured by file write operations or card inserts. After this period your card can be surely thrown out to recycle bin
2)Did you try to re-format it?
3)Check your \windows\startup folder for *flash.lnk files (they must be present)

The card works fine in my Qtek 1010 and Qtek 2020.
I have formated the card in my cardreader. But can I also do it on my Qtek?

Yes you can. But it won't help you if you don't see folder "\Storage Card"
Use 3rd party card formatting software to accomplish this task (soft by V2P and other)

And try Hard-resetting your device as a last measure before returning your device to guarantor

Hello, i have the same Problem, i cannot access my MMC.
I had access with my qtek9090 twice, but its not working any more. I formatted it with my card reader under winxp and in my cam, nothing works.
I did several Hard resests but without success.
You said something about the *flash.inc files in the startup folder. I can't locate them in my phone. any suggestions what i can do?
Greetings, Philipp
Yesterday I've re-installed my MDA Pro.
I use the QTek 1.30.77 WWE ROM, QTek 1.30.176 WWE extended ROM and the 1.11 Radio ROM.
After the hard reset I've installed all the programs from the extended rom and after that I cleared out the extended rom and used this for some SPB Apps (Not Pocket Plus, I installed this one on my local device).
But now when I perform a soft reset, the phone changes the name of my SD card to "Storage Card 2" and it creates a directory "Storage Card" where a temporary internet files directory is located.
I also used a reg tweak to let IE store my temp internet files on my SD card, but now it seems that when I reset my MDA it creates a temporary internet files directory when the storage card isn't detected yet.
But I haven't had this problem before.
Is there anyone who has a solution? Because now some programs are installed on my storage card and they don't work because the path to the executables is wrong. Maybe it has something to do with installing programs on my extended rom???
Why this happens:
If for any reason it cannot find the SD on boot (fast enough) it will create a folder called Storage Card to put the temp files (or inbox or whatever) so that the path \Storage Card\... exists. Now as soon as the SD becomes available, since there is already a folder called Storage Card it is forced to name itself Storage Card 2.
Solution: Delete the "Storage Card" folder and soft reset.

Yes I gues this is the problem. I already tried your solution, but it won't help. It will create a new directory with the name Storage Card so that my SD card again will be renamed to Storage Card 2.
Move the temp internet files back to the main memory and delete the folder. Apparently it does not read your card fast enough.
Going to try that. But I just don't understand. I have a SanDisk 2g Ultra 2 SD card, so the card is fast enough. I never had this problem before, just after the hard reset from yesterday.
I know have linked the temporary internet files folder to my local machine and it seems that this works!
Only I still want to know if there's a solution so that I can store my temp ie files to my SD card without the issue of the "storage card 2".
I remember reading this problem before. I believe the solution can be found on Buzz's Ext ROM Unlocker thread.

Couldn't find that in the post, but I reset my device again and didn't installed programs on my extended rom. This seemed to work, so maybe that was the problem.
thanks, i freaked out, almost done a hard reset, then searched XDA through google, found this solution, it worked 100%.
thanks guys
I was using it pretty good and suddenly my memory card appear and disappear when ever i reset my ppc. Now, i cant detect it anymore on my dopod 838 pro. Any idea or comments i can do to verify that the memory card is the problem (if it is still alive?) really need some advise and thanks in advance!

Pull the card out and pop it in a Normal PC Card reader and see if you can see the contents. For some reason PPC's will occasionally corrupt the formatting of the card to majke it unreadable to it but PC's sometimes can. If you can read it with a PC, then copy the contents off, reformat usign the PC and copy the contents back and try it in the PPC again.
ok will do that. but isnt that dangerous to lose data tat way? also, when i could read the memory card, the folders r there but the files r gone. possible virus?
i can find my memory card on the card reader. i tried formatting it but it gave me an error "Window is unable to complete the format". What is wrong?
Were you able to copy your info off of the card? How were you trying to format it?
Make sure that you DON'T have a window to the card open when trying to format.
HELP ME WITH ADVISE!
My problem is back again. My data at certain folder in the memory card is disappeared but still able to browse the memory card. Then i soft-reset a couple of times and the data comes back. It took the dopod 838 pro to read the memory card very long time b4 able to show the data on the card.
What should i do?
Check the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager. There are two DWORD values - PNPUnloadDelay and PNPWaitIODelay. If they are not set to 8196 - do that.
its 8196 as posted...
Looks to me like 2 possibilities:
Your SD Card is shot; or
Your phone has lost the plot.
If it reads OK on the PC card reader, the card is probably OK.
I'd try a hard reset of the phone first. (Make sure you have backed up everything first.)
Also, clean the SD slot as best you can to make sure there are no biscuit crumbs or old socks fallen into the hole.

Seems like some problems with this card. You didn't try another one?
Anyone know of an application that will allow me to check the micro SD card is OK ?
I suspect I have a fault in the card as I had to recopy 2 folders and the PC can't read the card directly.
It would be nice to check first without going through all the backup and restore time (16 gigabyte card).
Thanks, D.

I've never heard of a WM program to do this but you could try putting the card in your pc and using Scandisk command.

Thanks - but the PC does not recognise the card !!
But, you've given my the idea to try it directly from a DOS window using scandisk from the command line.
Thanks, D.
Active Sync?
Will you get access to the (corrupted) storage card while connected your THD with activesync?
Other way to check could provide EasyRecovery from OnTrack and your THD has to be connected in diskdrive mode.
In generell I used a tool named h2testw - which was developed by a German Computer Magazin called CT. http://sosfakeflash.wordpress.com/2008/09/02/h2testw-14-gold-standard-in-detecting-usb-counterfeit-drives/
This is the best one to check physical errors on every externel memorycard connected through USB. It has to be used on a new formated card.
Thank you for the tips I will explore those.
I'm not sure what the problem is. I can see the card via active sync but not via USB style connect.
I can not see the card when I directly connect it via a card reader.
I was able to use a different card OK and reinstall my GPS app (Route 66) which had gotten screwed up by this card "fault".
I'll report back on results ...
Hmm
These two don't work because I can't see the card from the PC (except via activesync)
There is a file called "~Recycled" in the storage card which does not show in the standard pocket pc file explorer but does show up in total commander.
Maybe that is causing a problem - will investigate on google what this is.

Noop - that's not it. Apparently this is just a delete folder from Resco File Explorer. It should not stop the PC from seeing the card.
Searching further ...
same problem here, I am contacting Orange to try to get a replacement. Not sure if its under warranty.
Try Pocket Mechanic for PPC... it has a Scan Disk utility amid a collection of others.
Successfully repaired my micro SD card with this when my HD was having problems reading my storage card some 3 days back.
Good luck!
Hi
I have a real problem with my SD card
1)in "MiniTool Partition Wizard" it shows "bad disk".
2)when i try checkdisk it says "file system is raw".
3)i am not able to format it because it says "your SDcard is write protected.
This happens after i was trying to copy some files to the SDcard but it just freezes so i unplugged it and that's it. it doesn't work any more.
can any one help me
which card is best for EVO 4G?
id say its pretty much toast...
BUT, id try SDFormatter, unlikly it will work, but try...
if that fails, theirs HDD Regenerator (which does work on SSD's/Flash to an extent... IE VERY specific issues can be fixed, and its not free ) or some off the shelf Low Level Format tool
SDFormatter: sdcard. org/consumers/formatter_3/
SD card

Try it in old DOS mode.. you can use Ontracks Data Eraser , or Active Kill Disk or anything else to Erase all Data's and Sectors. After that, you can Format your Card normally in Windows.. hope so ;-)
Or .. use Linux to Kill Partition on your SD Card and finally you can Format the SD Card in Windows... good Luck...
