It seems there is some understanding out there that a couple of ROM cookers have made WM6 roms compatible with SDHC cards. However, with my stock O2 XDA Orbit, I found under the registry, HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\SDHC. The entry refers OMPA850_SDHC.dll and other settings such as ControllerIRQ, SDIOPriority and the dll file actually exists under the windows dir (43472 bytes)!
Does that mean O2's ROM has already got the driver? Or is that common to all P3300? And most importantly, has Orbit owner actually tried a SDHC card to prove it does or doesn't work? so if anyone can borrow a 4Gb card, probably from a Nokia N95 owner, and give it a go, that'll be great, I'm searching for a card too.
Amazon offers 4GB Cards

I believe that "SDHC" means in this context "Secure Digital Host Controller", and not "Secure Digital High Capacity". As far as I Know every P3300 has that entry in the registry and the library OMAP850_SDHC.dll...
It doesn't mean that 4 GB SDHC don't work in our device, and in fact I'm interested also in knowing experiences of users with that kind of memory cards
Sorry for my horrible english

Oh yes, this makes sense. I may have to switch to a WM6 rom for it. But when my gf gets the HTC Touch, I'll see if I can copy the SD driver from there

Hi ,
I purchased i-mate JasJar today! its is a beauty, and it performs just as well as it looks.
Many new features are added by microsoft.
It is just Great !!
Youa re from Dubai I hope...
how much is the damage on the wallet? Do they accept trade in deals?
JasJar being sold in Dubai at FONO
Damage is AED 4449/-. :? and they don't trade in. It will be officially launched in Dubai At Gitex by Plug-in, this is what i heard at the sales counter when i bought mine.
That's way too much Kash76. It won't only damage my wallet, it will rip the pants I am wearing. I don't know if its worth it but heck, I'd rather carry a laptop (cos they cost the same) than a brick...
I mean an Imate Jam + Nokia 6680 for 3GP. Prices are getting more and more ridiculous including the Nokia 8800.
I feel damn bad though... Lolz...
jasjar updated

Yes. SDHC card will work fine in your JasJar, as long as it has WM6 from one of the latest ROMs found on this site.
SDHC does not work with WM5, only WM6.

Yea,I m using 4G SDHC Class 4 now ,no any problem on wm5 ,u can download SDHC driver from my link.
imate jasjar
I have the IMATE JASJAR and just had it upgraded from its wm-5 to wm-6, in doing this i noticed that I now don't have the little screen change icon tha was at the very bottom of the wm-5 screen. is there any way i can change screen direction or have i just lost that feature. the jasjar still goes from its portrait to landscape but i miss the idea of my being able to change screen direction. my next question is, since i've upgraded from wm-5 to the wm-6, does this also increase the 3-g phone qualities. thanks.
i did in fact download the wm-6 on my jasjar and when i went to place the SDHC card in it, it was not reconized at all, however, went i placed the regular 4gb SD card in it, it was immediately seen, why is this happening when i do in fact have the new wm-6 installed
i had my imate jasjar upgraded to wm-6 which is nice, however, in doing this, i lost the screen orientation control that was in the right hand bottom of my today screen, is there anyway to get this control back or any other way to do the screen orientation. it does still automatically change from landscape to portrait but i just don't have the ability to turn the screen where i wish to turn it.
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.
Unless u use Video Calling, everything is better with WM6 ...

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?

Please search before posting and try to comment on existing threads, not opening new one for things that have already been discussed, and definately not opening 3 new threads.
SDHC cards wont work.
4gb is the highest you can get in normal sd cards, but be careful when buying as some 4gb cards are normal SD and some are SDHC.
I bought a 4gb SD from www.mobymemory.com for £19.99 a while back, was one of the cheapest, works fine, and have had no problems in the Universal.
EDIT: They still have them now http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail.asp?prod=SD_MOBYMEMORY_4096_002

For SDHC to work:
1. The hardware must be right
2. The software must be right
In the case of WM6 in the Universal, the software (WM6) is right .... this is why the registry key you are referring to exists. But SDHC won't work in the Universal because well ... the hardware is not right.
looks like SDHC will soon be a reality to exec...
heard mamaich's already been working on this....
Guys are you certain about the hardware of Universal is not compatible?
I have a Treo 650 and for some time the limit was 2GB then suddenly with the coming of Treo 680 it was compatible with SDHC, only a driver mod and voila.
In the forums there were users which where 100% sure that the hardware was incompatible but all of them prooved wrong.

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 ;-(
