Storage card for Atom
I am using a 2GB Sandisk mini SD. Works fine
10x
I've got the 2GB Topram mini sd....seems ok data to took 9 secs to copy a 27mb file 3mb a sec is that good??
i thought they are 'unlimited'...no?
2 GB topram and 2gb stargem RAM both 150x speed work fine
2 GB topram and 2gb stargem RAM both 150x speed work fine. Not at the indicated speeds to ok.
Both ordered on ebay directly from Taiwan, they arrived speedely as indicated on the ebay and in good condition.
I'm oso using 2GB, works ok. BTW how do i know the speed for my 2GB card? wat does the 150x means from you guys?
4gb must be handled. more cappasites may not work.
8gb card can be seen 4, 5 or some least from 8gb.
16gb mini sd card not produced even.
just joined this forum - looking to buy an atom ar an exec. the memory cards that i read about are now in a new format called SDHC. Thus the 4 Gb is only available in miniSDHC. Is o2 compatible with this format and has anyone used a 4GB card in the atom? this will be the deal breaker for me...
normally atom doesn't support SDHC. but you can fix it with a patch. maybe it can fix the storage limitation(8 gigabyte!)
i'm using a 4 gig topram mini-sd without any problems.
got it on ebay a while back and you can get it for like $35 shipped to the U.S. nowadays.
i'm hoping that the Atom can take a 8 gig. so anyone using an 8 gig card? is there such a card (non-sdhc capacity card) since the atom can't take sdhc cards??

My WM6 Atom Exec has the 8GB Sandisk MicroSDHC card. However, it has the same problem as some of the Sandisk cards -- not reading the card intermittently.
I've done a lot of searches, but I haven't found any thread that solves my doubts...
I have a 2 GB Sandisk MicroSD in my HTC P3300 and it works perfectly (in fact I never suffered the corruption bug), but this is very few storage for me so I need a 4 GB memory card. My questions are:
1st - Does it exist any 4 GB MicroSD (not MicroSDHC)? I've readen some posts talking about them and I've seen some links in eBay shops, but nobody has confirmed if they are fakes. Anybody could tell me if 4 GB MicroSD exist and where to buy them?
2nd - If you have a 4 GB MicroSD, have you tested it in your HTC Artemis? Does it work? Have you got WM5 or WM6? Official or "non-official" ROM?
3rd - If you have a 4 GB MicroSDHC, have you tested it in your HTC Artemis? Does it work? Have you got WM5 or WM6? Official or "non-official" ROM?
I've opened a poll to know more clearly if I have the possibility to upgrade my storage card or I'll have to bear with that poor 2 GB Sandisk... Please, vote and write a post telling which brand/model of Artemis and MicroSD/MicroSDHC do you have and what operating system and ROM version do you use
Sorry for my bad english, I hope you haven't suffered to understand this message
Thanks
Nobody has tested a 4 GB MicroSD/MicroSDHC in his Artemis? I cannot believe it!
Regards
Someone did test a 4gb card and it didn't work for hin. On my phone right now so doing a search would be a pain. Search for sdhc in the Artemis mobile 6 forum and you should find it though.

Thank you for your answer
The thread you were talking about is this one. In one of the last posts a person says that he/she has tested a 4 GB Sandisk MicroSD in the Artemis with negative results, but doesn't specify if it's a High Capacity MicroSD (MicroSDHC) and in which OS the test was done
I would like to know more opinions and to see votes from people who has tested also a 4 GB MicroSD (HC or non-HC), I'm sure that there are more users who has experience with this kind of memory cards and we all would have a more clear idea if they tell us the detailed results
Regards
Well if you or someone can point out a couple 4 GB cards that are available in the U.S. online I will buy up to 3 to test just to try and bring some closure to the question.
The only 4GB micro SD card I could find was out of stock (J&R music). Based on a little searching it seems to perpetually be out of stock. I added myself to get an alert should it come in however.
I have done a bit of research and I am pretty sure the P3300 will not work with a 4GB card, but I am willing to try.
It is not the traces or the pinout on the card as many have surmised that is the problem though. The SDHC uses FAT32 whereas SD uses FAT16. So unless the system has the capability of reading FAT32 the question of circuitry is moot. Everything I have read points to 2GB being the limit for non SDHC and that the P3300 does not support it.
Another common misconception seems to be that there are non SDHC 4GB micro sd cards. I see no evidence that this is the case. Furthering the improbability is the fact that the Fat16 has an upper limit of a 2GB partition. (There is an exception to this where the FAT16 uses 64K clusters, but this is unlikely to be done or work in ANYTHING without custom drivers. I never even heard of this till I did this research.)
None the less I would be happy to be proven wrong.
I've read a thread somewhere in this forum where a senior member (or was it a mod?) had drivers to make the artemis sdhc capable which usually is not possible if the hardware is not built for that. Search for it and maybe you'll find it.
I have read most of those threads and none are conclusive.
You also can not do anything with drivers if the hardware is not already compatible. There is not any question that the p3300 does not officially support microsdhc.
The debate rages and a thread like this keeps coming up.
From what I've read so far, the only thing required is a SDHC driver. There should not be problem on the hardware side.
Some say the WM6 ROMs have SDHC driver. My Wizard has WM6 and the driver on it looks different, but I don't have a SDHC miniSD to verify. Ultimately, to prove it works on Artemis, I need a 4Gb SDHC microSD so I can try the stock drivers and may be copy the drivers from my Wizard.
SanDisk 4GB microSD-HC DID NOT WORK on MDA compact III
Hello,
I`ve an MDA compact III which was delivered with WM5 OS. I`ve an 2GB microSD - Card from Sandisk, working perfectly. A little bit small that thing for my big fingers... =
Now I was searching for higher capacitys of microSD - Cards and found an SanDisk microSD-HC with a capacity on 4 GB. Bought for app. 60€ and testet on my device: NOTHING. No work. The WM5 OS did`t recognise the Crad. The card is`t shown inside the System. It seems like NO card inside the device. The card is OK. There was a little USB reader in the package, where I can access to the card.
OK, maybe it is the WM5 OS and I decided to upgrade to WM6. (German O² OS using the UPL method...) The upgrade was done in 10 Minutes, but the card works NOT! The same reaction like on WM5.
Now I`m wayting for an patched OS with (maybe) an SD-HC driver inside. Let`s pray...
Best regards, Sven
The Artemis is not able to read/write microSDHC Cards. The Interface of the Artemis permits only FAT16, microSDHC works only with FAT32. Artemis cannot recognise it. Normal microSD with 4 GB if should be at least recognised.
JanetPanic: Before opening this thread I had done many searches to get information about SDHC, and I know that SDHC compatibility is a hardware problem rather than a software/drivers problem. However, I hoped that our HTC Artemis had a SDHC compatible slot, looking at HTC Trinity's example... By the way, before the Artemis I had a Dell X51v with a 4 GB SD (non-HC) that worked like a charm; I expect that in a -near- future there'll be 4 GB MicroSD cards
lSSBl: Very interesting your MicroSDHC "review", althought you have ruined most of my hopes. Let's pray that future WM6 official ROMs will give the Artemis the ability to read MicroSDHC cards
AlfredENeumann: I tell you the same as JanetPanic, the HTC doesn't have officially a HC compatible slot and however it supports that kind of memory cards. Let's pray...
Regards
@AlfredENeumann
You're wrong. The Artemis accepts FAT32 as well as FAT16 SD cards, no matter if WM5 or WM6. But that has nothing to do with SDHC, what till now doesn't work with the generic WM6 drivers.
perhaps a solution: http://msmobiles.com/news.php/6308.html
http://www.sandisk.com/Assets/File/pdf/retail/SDHC1.pdf
That means, that the SDHC card is NOT backward compatible - you can't format it with FAT16, but you can format any 'normal' (micro) sd- card with FAT32, and it still works at the artemis. Tested by me, and a lot of other guys.
Has anybody Tried the SDHC driver from the HTC Trinity yet?

4 gb micro dilemma
Hey guys... see if you can help me out.
Installed the 4gb micro sd on my HTC Artemis and the SDHC driver from the previous post... windows mobile 5 doesn't recognize the card.
Not sure what to try, open to any suggestions.

crap
Actually, after I've tried the 4gb Micro and installed the Trinity driver.. NONE of my storage cards are recognizable now. So I removed the driver.. and STILL none of my storage cards are recognized. BUSTED?!? Not sure how to fix this?

Sandisk 4gb SDHC no go
Hi all, just to let you know I tried all the WM6 rom's on these forums (thanks to all), reformated my sandisk 4gb microsd card fat 16/32 but no go..
(my 2gb sandisk card works fine with fat16/32), even tried trinity driver no go.
Hopefully the new WM6 rom from HTC this week will support it.

Works perfectly!
Where did you get it?
Hi Snake28,
where did you get the card?
Valen
Works with Artemis Touch 3.01, 5.2.1921 SDHC
It works with the mentioned rom. Although I had some problems with recognizing in the beginning, I flashed the rom again and I worked immediately.
Brought it from memoryshop.nl (Dutch)
http://www.memoryshop.nl/geheugen/425/microsd-(secure-digital).html (Now, the card is temporarily out-of-stock)
My costs were: €86,00 all-incl. (send within the Netherlands)
Brought it the 6th of [email protected], got it the next [email protected]
@ Valen42:
I edited my Post, because I don't know about Direct Links ..

I also bought 8GB SDCH for my artemis running wwe 3.1 including bepes sdhc hack. anyhow its quite slow, sdtools showed me like 300 kb writing and 700 kb reading spead. Sandisk tells class 4 cards run about 4-5 mb read/write.
Anyone any idea, what could be my problem? I wondered wheather the card is fat 32 formatted, how do I find out?
I have the same problem. Writing to the MicroSD via the O2 XDA Orbit (Artemis) is very slow. I have tried putting the card in the small Sandisk adapter which the card came with and it is also slow. BUT when I use a different MicroSD card reader/writer (USB2.0) it works much faster (140 MB file writes and reads in 10-12 seconds). The reader is one of these:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TRANSFLASH-MI...ryZ51082QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
So it seems to be a hardware problem.
4GB kinsgton work flawlessly also.
One other thought ... have you got the "encryption" enabled for data transferred to storage cards? I think this slows the data transfer even more through the Artemis. It is still slow though, as the data connection between my Artemis and my computer is still only a maximum of 10 Mbit/s (i.e. c. 1.25 Mbyte/sec max).
In my post at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350383
you`ll find a Benchmark I did with an "old" 2GB MicroSD and an 8GB Micro SDHC Card.
Surprisingly the Performance of the 8GB Card was much better then I expected with the SDHC-Drivers provided by this Community.
When I reformated the 2GB Card to FAT32 to work with the new SDHC Drivers Speed went down significantly. But the provided .pdf File shows all this Data quite well....

lol i'm going to buy one to but they aren't in stock have to wait
Can anyone explain the different classes of card available (class, class6). Is there a particular one needed for the orbit/artemis.
Also - I note that you can get 16gb cards. Anyone tried one yet??
My Orbit worked first time with an 8GB Scandisk bought via EBay.
Down loaded and ran this .cab file as suggested earlier:

12 GB will be available in February and 16 GB in June or July. The class indicates the minimum writing speed, so with class 2 you will be able to write data to your card with at least 2 MB/sec. I don't think your pda will be able to write more than 2 MB/sec. but you can try it out.

8GB SDHC on Atom Exec
So, what does this thread aims to accomplish? I feel like I have tried all the cabs and links, but still no luck making it work, I still cannot use my 8GB Sandisk MicroSD(with a MINI SD Adapter) I bought for my xda Atom Exec.
Is upgrading my ROM to WM6 the only way to go? Has this been proven to work? I have been reading on the forums but I cannot find a patch that works specifically for my device? or maybe im looking in the wrong thread?
Can someone point me in the right direction?

just a thought that might help; could it be that it only works on atom and not atom exec?
OT: i think this is double post, i think i replied to the other thread having the same initial content; i'm thinking of buying 8gig myself but i'm wondering if it will work on 6mp pp w/o sdhc drivers as well. Hmm, maybe, i don't any see any relation on pagepool with 8gig sdhc, i maybe work, and it's just to make sure...

8 GB memory card for Atom
Hi, Guys. I happened to read this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-305135.html
But several of our friends there posted that 4Gig SD card is supported by our Atom phone. Nobody yet confirmed the 8Gig and up except Sanjay2007.

hi Kentthegreet i m sanjay2007 this i m using 8gb sandisk microsd card with mini sd adapter very smoothly really it works great than 2gb card u have to buy 8gb carg without any tension i m gave u promise it will work definately
But does the 8gb Micro sdhc card work in Atom Life as well ??
im running windows mobile 6
hi all
why not ATOM LIFE ALSO SUPPORT 8GB CARD IT MY GAURANTEE
Thanks, Sanjay
If your current machine only supports plug slot micro, mini SD card is 2GB maximum, after you run the file. Cab, you try to plug the card 4G, and 16G to 8GB, if the machine is successful already. Đã test and working on WM 6 / 6.1. When soft run, save the new device is nhé. And for any machine you see this long is your computer manufacturer advertising is to use the card to 8GB, so you try it only back from 2GB (maybe ROM failed). You only need to use this soft 100% successful.
i also upgrade memory upto 16gb
my dear friend this time i using great jiggs rom which donot want any patch for 8gb card . my future plan is upgrade the memory of my atom up to 16gb in few days i know very well atom also support 16gb memory card because of atom machine
Hi.
I have a Samsung SGH-i780. I was wondering if there is any 16 GB microSD for this product ? I just now searched in SandDisc.com and their compatibality help shows 8GB as the recommended memory. Does i780 support 16 even ?
Thanks in advance.
Shahab.
if its micro sdhc compatible it should do anything even 8 and above and if sandik say 8 then it should do 16 because once you get to 8 and above then its called sdhc
Works flawlessly.
Hi wmc90, do you experience anything "slow" during transfering of files or music playback on your 16gb sdhc? Need your advise...
As long as I don't do any of the transferring over activesync it all goes at a reasonable speed.
Although I only did the transfer of close to 16 gigs once (and I have no idea of the actual time it took) it seemed perfectly reasonable at the time. And the odd album takes less than a minute... always.
I recommend you pick up one of those little sandisk readers with the card.. since they're superhandy; and you'll probably get the best speed out of them.
