On WM2005, how can I configure the Program Memory to be the default storage instead of Storage Memory because the Program Memory is quite bigger.
And also there's no slider in the Memory Settings.
I am facing this problem from day one. I even tried to install softwares to my SD card/RAMdisk/Stroage but the Storage & Program still keep reducing. I posted on 29 June but no reply.
Another problem is that the resume is very slow after the backlight turn off, sometime I have to reset/reboot my phone.
If not because of better Bluetooth, I would have turned back to 2003SE

prob some help and info for you here
Rudegar,
Thank for your info., I just downloaded, will try this weekend. :lol:
Hi,
Love my Orbit, but everytime I save around 600Mb of data on the storage card it gets corrupted (funny characters in file explorer, cant access any installed programs on storage card etc...)
This has happened three times in the last three weeks, pulling out the battery and restarting does not fix it, I've even hooked the sd card up to my laptop and it sees the corrupt data as well.
Has anyone else seen this?
EDIT - May 2007 - fix now found

I've been having some files become corrupted for about a week. I've had my compact III for about 4 weeks. Lost night I lost the lot while using TomTom! When I checked it on the PC It still had 700mb on it but the total of the files came to just over 1mb. This was with a 1GB card.
What other software do you have on yours? Do you use a2dp?

Its never failed during use, only during installing a new program or after charging, hence my thought it might have been a file size limit.
I also use tomtom stored on my SD card, this has happened three times and I have had a variety of software on it, but have been slowly dropping titles to see what the common app is (I thought it was omap, which it wasn't) it happend last night while installing AM Task+, I had tomtom and tcpmp and 300Mb of divx on the card, but nothing running.
Does this help? To be honest I was half wishing noone would reply so I could return the card and be on my merry way!!!
I just posted another thread about the same thing!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285520
I also have had the crazy strange characters, but a soft reset would fix that. Now it's just data disappearing (the entire contents of my 2gb card was the victim this morning...my head almost exploded!)
Man, I hope we all just have crappy cards! I'll keep testing and post results. I hope my seller will switch it out for me - then if it happens again we will have a clue as to whether the Artemis or the card is to blame!
Let's keep this the official thread on this topic - please read my post above, but reply to this thread.
This (Sandisk 1GB) card always worked perfectly on my Hermes so I am a little concerned that it might be the internal location of the card. I am going to backup my card regularly. The reason I asked about installed apps is that I have been using Battery Status with scaled overclocking to 273mhz on it for a couple of weeks now. I was using A2DP last night for 20 minutes just before my card corrupted while overclocked and was worried that this may have caused it. Temperatures did not get as hot as they do during charging so I'm pretty sure that these programs were not the direct cause.
Phil
Interesting thought about the A2DP...
I have never used a bluetooth headset before I bought my Artemis. Now, bear in mind as I said, I have lost a few files prior to using A2DP and have also seen the strange characters as well. However, I got some bluetooth headphones yesterday and used A2DP for around 20 minutes or so for the first time ever. Then this morning, after soft reset....BLAMMO! everything gone on my 2gb microSD card. Oh yeah, I am using constant overclocking to 240mhz.
Could just be coincidence, but I am going to install a few files again and then use A2DP again. If it happens again, we will be narrowing down the cause!
I will report my findings later...
P3300
I have the same problem, but with the 512mb card that was supplied with my P3300 premium. Sending it back!
I don't use A2DP
I was experiencing the same problem some days ago. Now it seems that the microDS is stable. However, there is directory named Files to be deleted that is created automatically and I suspect that is related with Tomtom software. Is anybody that has not Tomtom preinstalled having the same problem?
Regards.
I didn't have tomtom preinstalled, Whenever the card becomes corrupted I can see "Files to be deleted" which I think is actually a Windows Mobile system folder
Interesting though, there seems to be a tomtom common thread here, I may try and install another navigator and see how it goes.
I had this problem today. Lot of folders with strange letters appeared on my card. I soft reset the ppc, everything is back again. but some Chinese characters are not readable any more.
Did someone figure out already what is the reason for this?
PS: forgot to mention that I have tomtom preinstalled. My ppc runs a German system from O2 Germany
Same here, but I know why it happened
I also lost all data on my storage card, but was due to syncing with media player on my desktop. I synced music because some files were asking for certificates and that is the way to transfer those that don't play. Unfortunatly clicked the wrong button and card was replaced with music files!
Luckily and unexpectedly restoring the Tomtom backup from desktop restored most of the files on the storage card, and then resetting and syncing (excluded windows media player ) with pc brought the programs back. But there are two strange folders that cannot be deleted because they are "system files" in addition to the one called "FilesToBedDeleted". One is namedwith a square symbol and E (but longer name can be seen when explored from activesync).
The TomTom desktop backup really backsup the entire storage card so if you have it you should use it frequently.

Maybe a solution?
I have the same with my xda orbit, I have a 2GB microsd and once in a while suddenly I cannot access the data anymore, the folders and files are looking corrupt, weird names of the files and folders
What helped for me is, to take out the memorycard, insert it again and make sure it is tight in the lock. Then, when you switch it on again, the files should all be accessible again.
I was thinking it might be a problem that the card is not tight enough in the lock so it would lose the contact, so what I did is that I used a small pice of plastic a little thicker than the lock of the sim-card to give higher pressure on the memorycard under the battery. Until now it works fine for me, but I do not know if it is a solution yet, I will have to wait some more days to see if it really works like that.
A lot of people here said that after a softreset everything is OK again, never tried it, so maybe it was just OK coz I took out the battery, it would be similar to a soft reset.
So Now I am not sure anymore if my solution is one, but as I said, until now it is OK. I will post again if I know more.
Is this problem effect only O2 orbit, or all HTC artemis and Dopdo P800W??
I have also had this problem on my 1GB MicroSD
Just did a soft reset and then then everything appeared to be gone. When I checked how much storage was left on the card it still had 600MB shown in use but no files were visible.
I also have Tomtom 6 installed and had used it extensivley just before the card corrupted.
I have formatted it and reinstalled everything and have no probs since although I haven't used the sat nav since.
Its this occurs because of:
Micro SD brands Sandisk only, Transcend, or Kingston
MIcro SD storages size? 2 gb/ 1 gb
Device ROM: O2 orbit rom, HTC Artemis rom
Sandisk, 2 gb, O2 Orbit here
Until now still working fine after using my "trick" (I really hope it stays like that), but have to admit that I did not use TomTom since then. When thinking back when my card got corrupt (4 times all together) I was using TomTom all these days when it happened.
I have only installed TomTom on the card and its been fine for the last week. But to me this isn't a solution as I want 2gb of storage, I'm just scared to load stuff again, but I will this weekend and see how it goes
Mem: SanDisk 2GB
Phone: O2 Orbit
i am using a sandisk ultra2(!!!) 2Gb card in my hero(german) running the tmouk wwe rom and do not experience any problems whatsoever.
there is something definitely up with the orbit (maybe other variants as well) and micro sd. I have a kingston 1gb SD and i am getting the funny characters on folders. Do a soft reset and it's fine, doesn't take long for the gibberish to return though

Dear All,
Go to Setting, Select About Device, Tap 7 times on Build Number and press back button you will find "Developer Option"
Now your Developer option is enabled, Now Turn on Your Developer Option and restart your device.
Try moving Few apps to SD and monitor for a week,
I have tried it and its working for me ( No more grayed out apps yet )

Thank you very much.
PS: how can I re-hide the "developer options" menu enabled by tapping 7 times the Build Number ( I can turn it off with dedicated switch entering the menù but the menu itself remains there just before the "info" one... forever)

Hi, i did try as you suggested, but SADLY :crying: I had no results... when turning off and then on the device, my moved apps vanished.
In the meantime I found out that is possibile to remove the corruped apps simply by searching corresponding class name in application list (the corrupted apps does not show their name but the implementing java class...) and removing as a normal app: so I had a way to clean off the app list.
BUT, today i had a look in another strange and more heavy problem, related to casual image corruption too.... . I noted that the images tended to get corrupted after turning off and on the device and... had divine inspiration :angel:
I tried with another SD card and... BINGO! That was the problem!
My 64GB (probably low quality) Class10 card, did all that mess
Now I'm using a 32GB high quality original samsung SD card and have no more problems... (i turned off and on many times after moving apps)
Hope this helps other people too!
Bye
Thanks for that mate i am having the same problem and was lost until you said changing the sd card to an original samsung card did the trick, i havent tried it yet but will do once i receive my original 64GB samsung SDXC class 10 UHS-1 70mb/s read and 20mb/s write speed sdcard. Hell its even got the shiny hologram on it hope it works for me. I smell something foul with samsung on this matter. Perhaps they want you to only use samsung sdcards.
The issue is quite an unique one i may recall. Because, i googled all my way over time fetching if i could get any similar issue to solve my self up seemingly.
The story:
1) What's working:
I can make calls, save contacts, modify settings, add alarms, use internet for browsing, etc.
2) What's not working:
I cannot take pictures, install apps, auto sync of google account doesnt show up, cannot download anything, etc.
What is my phone loaded with: Its a note 2 indian version and has 16gb internal and 16gb sandisk external class 10 card.
The verge : The point here is, there is about 8gb of data in sandisk memory card and also 5gb already occupied by personal files in phone memory. But i come up being showed nothing, infact not even the apps i installed. The stock apps all are there but no other app shows up and stock apps have their memory values as 0.00B in there app info page when i open it. So weird problem. The 16gb memory card when taken out and installed in othersamsung phone works like a charm by also showing what the files are inside it. When i connected my note 2 to pc, i tried to get it recognised by kies but it says "unsupported device alert" so waste of using kies over it. Now another thing, this is very weird to myself as i never saw anything like this happen to anyphone of mine. As i connect this note 2 to my pc through samsung data cable, i see the phone's storage information way to constraint. I have attached a snapshot of the storage blocks window taken from my laptop screen. If anybody understand what this memory picture suggests. please let me know. Anythings else if required, feel free to mention, i will prepare update it here. I find this error first of it's kind for note 2.
If anybody got any idea on what this problem is, please guide me for which i would be truly thankful to you.
Not even one reply?
Please guys, somebody help (-_-)
Hello everyone,
I am contacting you because i have many issues with the blackview A7 pro phone, that i have bought a week ago.
Shortly after my purchase many of the problems arose that are closely tied with the phone software (or so I believe).
First thing that troubles me the most, is the problem that is associated with the use of the SD card storage, that cannot be used as a place to store apps from my phone, except when I format my SD card as a internal storage. And even when I format my SD card as internal storage, i cannot see the correct value or my new storage (in gigabytes) because the old value doesn't add up to the value or the formatted SD card. The only option that I can use is the root if I want to move apps to SD card (!!!!)
Other thing is that internal memory is always reporting that I have 10.7 gb of memory instead of 16 gb, and there is no mention of where could possibly those 5 GB has gone!
I cannot root my phone because if I do this i will lose my warranty, or in the worst case, my phone will be bricked and it wont be useful anymore.
And I cant find any available root/roms out there on the internet except from your company and I am using the latest one that is: A7Pro-Blackview-V0.12-20171031_000220
One of the most intolerable problem is also the problem with wifi. The situation here is that any possible wifi network that i connect my a7 pro phone to, suffers from great oscillation and network loss.
Even if i am just a room away from ANY ROUTER i will have problems with oscillation from excellent to poor in just 10 seconds.
The other problem is the camera with its awful and poor quality regardless of the settings or application that i am using. Also the insult to injury is the lack of panorama option in the phones camera application. Other google play software cannot do the panorama option so well.
One other more tolerable problem is the complete lack of "look and feel" of the phones software and the inability to change or add other wallpapers or themes except when using the other peoples software from somewhere else (google play or any other platform). The built-in launcher3 is so poorly defined and so poorly supported that users are forced to change look and feel because of the awful design of the current software.
Does anyone know how can I resolve at least two of my problems (SD card problem and WiFi problem)?
Can anybody help?
anyone, please ? any help is much appreciated
is it possibile that i am posting this in the wrong sub-forum?
About your question, the first is pretty normal, every android since 6.0 have option to apply a extra storage with sd with formatting it ( i want rembemeber you that android not allow install on sd card normally, if not via root), also about your actual storage space again is normal, some gb are for file system and recovery, variuos brand have his own reservated space, so it can be changed from phone to phone. Since january is aviable a custom TWRP that can be installated trough SP flash tool, check on google. And for your last question is possible that is just a bug, so try to format the system and/or update your phone if aviable. Extra, for customizing yuor phone change launcher. Hope that will help you or someone else, there's nothing wrong in this low budget phone, every your question are common for any adroid device.
