Spectec WiFi broken after Flash

Hi all,
These forums have been a great help over the last months, but I recently re-flashed my device to start with a clean slate, so I used the T-mobile 1.13 NL version (which, for whatever reason, is actually english).
For whatever reason, my spectec wifi card is no longer working. The device still sees tha card, but is cannot connect to any networks. I read a random post on another site that t-mobile is intentionally blocking the use of wifi on the rom, but I find that hard to believe since my brother has a T-mobile device with the wifi working full well, and since T-mobile themselves operate commercial hotspots.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Do you know of any drivers for your Wi-Fi card? The T-Mobile ROM may lack some fringe features such as these... try finding and installing them first. (And no, I don't actually have a wi-fi card but I thought I should just say something helpful first )

Hi,
I hv the same problem as well after upgrading to 1.13ROM+1.13 Radio & big storage. I am using Spectec 802.11b WLAN card n downloaded the driver from spectec website, mine is a Dopod 828+. Anyway your guide on the magician ROM upgrade is a lifesaver! Kudos to you, toomuchdogfur!!

Well there you go!
And thanks for that ! Though you might want to put that post on the guide's thread, as its continuosly being buried by all the questions (I really wish someone would sticky it!).

Kingston 4gb minisd...

It is really freaking slow AND is never recognized by my 8125. I cant partition it either through windows or wm5storage. It transfers at about 30k/sec.... rediculously slowl. Im running XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 FINAL full!. Is there any patch or update or trick I can pull to get my 8125 to recognize my 4gb kingston minisd? Or atleast increse its speed?
Thanks,
Rico

I am sorry but Wizard is not suporting 4GB miniSD card very well. Some people reported, that some cards are working, but almost all are not working specialy because new cards are SDHC which need more specific hardware. So if it is your case and your card is SDHC there is no chance to get it work. If not make sure your card is formated to FAT16, try it in some memory card reader, if it works. And at the end this is not a good thread for memory cards. And 4GB miniSD cards have been already discused in Wizard accessories or Wizard upgrading thread, so search there your answers...

Try this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293556
I was just about to, but I got side-tracked, and now it's unreasonably late. I'll try it tomorrow if you will....

Scuse me lady...
Are you xtremely sure that this works...? it works for you?
Does you know that if you instal a hardware patch it never recognize the SD slot none SD card till you upgrade again or hardreset and it will cost many info?
so...
A men On hermes thread told me the newer versions of porting ROMS Builds has an entrie that allow read SDHC I think since 20273 but....
Does your wizard has it? seee on my Shipped ROM from Hermes WM6.0 already comes with this Reg entrie and so...
Is not the Software... cause if it would... the old .1933 that builds the rom I have it never comes ok? so...
You can see if the wizard has it and try this... I cant recomend it but make a high research and try it before post try this
its not recomended to do that...
first make it on your then recomend...
This is the REG
HKLM/drivers/sdcard/clientdrivers/class/SDmemoryclass
"inside... High_Capacity and many inside too...
Block transfer
dll
iclass
prefix
profile
So...
if wanna try it...
search for it on hermes threads.

So I tried it today (Sat, 11/8)
It didn't work, and nothing blew up, either. I guess I appreciate the recommendation, though.
Yes, I know there's a lot out there to try to solve this, but this looked easy, and I thought I'd offer it since you seemed to be looking for things to try.
I think I was very clear about not having tried it yet, so why did you ask me if I was sure it worked?
I back up everything daily, so it's pretty easy for me to reflash, or hard reset. No "data cost" ever. I'd recommend it. I guess being prepared makes me look pretty reckless when it comes to trying new things.
The fix also includes dlls, I didn't bother analyzing it, checking to see what the reg entry was in the fix, checking my own registry, or reading any Hemes threads. I don't have time. Again, if it blows up, I can handle it. If I weren't fully backed up I'd spend more time doing research on the dozens of fixes I try than I do backing up and recovering (I haven't had to for over a year, now). I don't generally care about the code details and what happens on other gadgets I will never own.
Good luck with this.
P.S. Please check my signature.

i am using amp v3 rom wm6.1
ust want to know how much capacity does wizard can supoort.
i have 1gb working well,can i upgrade to 2/3 gb & works well...

have you tried the SanDisk microSD with adapter?
I have it working on mine. faster than the old 1gb Kingston I used to have. It maybe the problem with the card it self.
try a different brand, or try the "ultra" series as well. they may have a better transfer rate as they were made for video games.
there is also an issue with formating the card:
if you decide to format using xp to fat32 it will run slower. unfortunately, the only way to recover it propperly was to put it into my camera and have it format back to fat16. xp would not do it.
again, i think your problem is kingston. they are good for ram on PC/MAC; but i do not think they have gotten the sd memory dow yet. next time get the origional "SD/SanDisk II"
good luck.

The speed is fine after I formated back to fat 16, thanks to my handy camera. But I cant seem to partition the damn thing into two 2gb cards... any thoughts? Ive done the wm5storage, card reader, xp/vista, partition magic, fdisk thing and none have worked thus far. Thoughts?

Hi
Its a registry hack just go to hklm/drivers/sdcard/clientdrivers/class/sdmemory_class and here modify the value of "Blocktransfersize" from 128 to 64 it fix the media player sound cracking but also slightly decrease the data writing speed on ur card. this will not harm ur card and ur card will work perfectly with ur card reader and if u dont use the card reader than when u want to transfer large amount of data(above 256 mb) u can increase this value upto 512.

to help with transfer rate... maybe that can be a solution??
just backup the reg key's nessesary.
as far as partitioning the mbr on a flash card...
I have no idea.
BUT

this dude has been doing some sick stuff. Some of his software may be able to help.

32GB SDHC Card

Hi I've searched the forum about this but cant really find any definitive answers.
Is it possible to run a 32GB SDHC card on the Uni or not?
Has anybody done this and currently using it and if so is there any drawbacks or restrictions etc?
What driver/Software is needed for it to be recognised is it the normal SDHC prog that comes with some cooked 6.1 roms or is it another?
This is the same card as the one i have ordered is it compatible?
Thnx for any help/Advice you can give

I have heard of 32GB cards running on a Uni. (I've only got 8GB, though)... but now you've ordered it, you'll be able to enlighten us whether it works I'm sure many people would be interested, and this is what xda-devs is all about, all chipping in a bit of info

Will be happy to post results, was just hoping somebody had already tested and had some info already, Searched forums but seems nobody has actually tried it out yet.
Will try it first oob then try the sdhc driver and see what happens.

I can confirm that you can use 32GB SD Card with Uni. I am using one from Silicon Power and you need to select appropriate Card type using 'SD Settings' program after inserting it. The program will ask you to reboot the device and once done, its business as usual.
Almost all 6.1 Roms recognised and I have not experienced any issues in using 16GB Card.
Hope this helps.

This is very usefull info!
Thanks,

Perfect
it would be an excelente notice, I already own one 16 gb running wm 6.1, and let me tell you that i have not room on it.
Pls let us know your comments
Saludos

Are you talking about a 16GB card or a 32Gb card, ??

I received my16Gb card today and spent some time getting stuff on it - movies, music, setup .CABs etc, seems to be performing fine, the only difficulty I experienced is the card not being recognised by my computer in USB mode, not sure why, had no problems accessing it through AS. Therefore it is taking me longer to transfer large files or folders over. Othere than that there seems to be no problems performance-wise. Would be interesting to know how the 32Gb performs.

Waiting for the result .... hope it works great..... please let us know.....

The card has now arrived and it was recognised straight away on setting 2 with the SD-Settings app. Im gunna transfer everything across and install some apps and test everything out etc and post back soon
Can anybody recommend any tests i can do to make sure everything is working normally etc, Im gunna do the benchmark test with pocket mechanic but is there any other progs that can test it?

Try SD Setting type-1.
It is faster than type-2.

Sorry for confusion, I do have it on type-1.
What i meant is that i have it on the second setting which is type-1, type-2 been third setting.
Havent got round to trying any software out on card yet as I'm trying to get my PC to recognise the card it just seems to not accept SDHC cards or 32gb ones anyway.
Ive copied all my data installers/docs etc from old card to PC and im trying to transfer using the "Disk Drive" setting in "USB to PC" but sometimes the uni reboots , will get there eventually.
Do you know of a fix for Vista/Win7 to be able to read 32GB SDHC cards?

Be careful if you get one from Hong Kong via ebay as mine had a autorun.inf on the card infected with a worm, My AV (ESET NOD32) got rid though.
Im also having alot of problems transferring data to the card, I get so much on then something will go wrong like the phone will reboot or lose connection and then the card inst accessible it just says it needs formatting.
I cant get XP or Win7 to see the card when its in my inbuilt reader, Ive order a cheap card reader that accepts various cards including 32Gb sdhc so hopefully i can get all my data on and properly test it out.

XP and High capacity SD cards
I have a 16G card, have no problems on the Uni it works great but I did have problems on XP on the inbuilt SD reader on my laptop. The following microsoft patch fixed the XP issues.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934428

Tried that but that hotfix is already installed into SP3, so fook knows whats up. Should have my reader by monday anyway.

RAPH100 not recognizing 8GB Class6 microSD

Hi,
I'm new to this forum as well as to the HTC Raphael. I've got a RAPH100 and did the latest offical ROM Upgrade (ROM: 5.05.407.1 GER, Radio: 1.11.25.01DE, 52.58.25.30U) and now it's not recognizing my microSD card anymore. Before, I had to reinsert the card 2-5 times, but often it didn't work anyway.
My storage card is a:
Transcend microSDHC Class 6 8GB
MMAGR08GUDCA-DB
I F0240000 914
52511 2452
I already searched for a sort of patch, but typically it has to work out-of-the-box i guess.
EDIT: even freshly formatted it doesn't work

Bastard!! that was my first fix!!!
ok, more useful help:
1) its possible you're SD card has a defect your PC (through its card reader) doenst mind, but your phone does. If possible (ie you have more of these cards, or friends with the same phone) try your card in other (same & different) phones / other (same) cards in yours
1 i) It's possible your phone OR card has a minor pin problem - have a look & see if there is anything obvisously wrong with the card contacts / phone pins (you might need a torch)
1 ii) try a different micro SD card (any type or size) - if it reads 100% fine, then it is unlikely to be a pin problem on the phone (unlikely - not impossible)
[when i say pin here, i mean micro SD card pins / pickups / contacts, not any kind of password]
2) How about flashing back to the old rom (if its available)? - then testing again
3) How about flashing a custom rom? (this is a little involved - its not difficult, but will require some time to ready & understand before you start)

well, assuming there's no other solution I would try it. I've already read a bit about custom roms, but atm I don't want to do HardSPL.

Hi The-Razor,
Guess what! I have the exact same card (not the numbers ofc.. , and the exact same problems!
A128 mb card does work. And the 8 gb card does work in other phones.
The weired thing is. In my Touch Pro info says that the cardslot is in use. But when you look in the memory settings it says, not installed...
Or do you have an solution already? I hope so...

This is a known issue with this brand of card.
San Disk or Kingstons work.

I'm sorry, haven't found a solution yet. I'm thinking of flashing the newest Energy Rom, because there are several users reporting that this could fix the compatibility issue. But I haven't already had the time to do so.
@Bruce:
After searching a second a time I found some threads about exactly that problem. I haven't found them the first time because I just searching in Raphael, not accessoiries ;-)

Well, I flashed the recent Energy ROM, which seemed to help at first but now my phone doesn't see the microSD anymore. But I put a ROM Image to the root of my storage card and booted into bootmanager et voila: it asks for update, so its not a hardware issue i suppose.

No, if the hardware can read the ROM image on the card then i dont think its a hardware problem. (Still can but not likely) So it seems to be a problem with Windows mobile or with (all!) the roms we are using.
Considering that this problem (now and then) excist in all ROMS i cant imagen that it are the ROMs that causing the problems. For sure when there are so many ROMs, aka: Now it seems that there is no ROM developper that can solve this problem. I cant imagen that. Those guys are smart enough to figure this out.
Considering that: Other cards do work WITH windows mobile AND with all roms we are using you might think that its the brand thats causing the problem... But i read more forums and it seems that more cards and brands can have this problem. But not all the time... Trancends is leading for shure but not the only one (adata)...
Considering that: My "defect card" does work in a card reader you would still think that it is the hardware... But why does the hardware read other cards then? So it really cant be the hardware...
Considering that its Windows Mobile then? That might be... But then again alot of cards do work in WM.... So that cant be the problem either...
Considering that all the cards must be produced conform protocol or standard xxx all the cards must work "the same" or at least be compatible with devices... But we know for shure that this isnt the case...
So:
Most cards work, so hardware cant be the problem, windows mobile / ROMS can read most cards. So that cant be the problem either. The problem excist in alot of Brands. A few got way more problems than other brands.
So might it be the production process of the cards? Are the cards being dubble checked when they are made or when the are ready? Is it the brand that sells all cards including the defect cards. And do some brands check there cards better then others... Might there be so little manufactoring problems they over see them. I guess more research would really help here...
Those cards came way to fast on the marked for budge prices... And it seems that we are paying the price for it now....

I have only seen this issue with the transcends or the aData cards which are the bottom of the line cards. I would suspect that the data transmit rate and consistency is what causes the issue. Even if you get the device to recognize it, you can't stream media from it without freezes, etc.

I have the same problem but with a 4 GB - Class 4 - microSDHC kingston.
Wmobile since I can not format it is as if protected. takes some files to read the card, including executables, coming to hang the device.
salu2

I had the same issue with the same card (Transcend C6 8GB). I was unable to fix the issue. Good luck!
I noticed:
My bosses Fuze wouldn't see it (stock rom)
My friends VZ Touch Pro would see it (stock rom)
My old 8525 would see it (cooked rom)
And a bunch of people at my work with the Titan, could see the card.
I just traded with a friend who had a Transcend C4 8GB card.
Here's my previous post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525445

I changed it for an kingston 8 gb. That worked on the fly...

I now changed to a SanDisk 8GB ... working like a charm

My AT&T FUZE with the Energy ROM would only sometimes read my Adata 8Gb Class 6 Micro SDHC. I swithced it with an older Kingston 6Gb Class 4 Micro SDHC I had on my camera and haven't had anymore problems. Read about several people on different websites with the same problem. I could not find a fix either. The Raphaels just don't like those cheap micro sd cards.

Good Day! Friends please help for my trouble with this (MMAGR08GUDCA-DB) microSDHC card... All it's ok work, but today, flash card say to me: format not possible sd is write-protect! Oo but i'm not added write-protect nd no added some code for this card...
Please say to me, how i can formated this card?????????????????
I very very need your help, 2 days internet serfing not much normal result (( and i can't find any firmware tools to format this flash card (((((((((((

Formatting can be done using an micro sd-adapter (i dont know if you can set writeprotect then...). Then you can format the card in a normal pc. But if that doenst work also, then i would think it over to send the card back for an other brand. I formatted my old card on a normal pc to. That went fine... but then stil the rapheal dit not reconised the card....
So it really might be the brand... beside that, i dont know if a class 6 card works well...

[Q] Htc Hd 2 problems

Hello.
Have been running android on my hd2, but today my phone will not find my memory cards anymore...
2 x1gb 2x4gb 1x8gb... does not find them anymore...
Help what do i do?
Please help, i want android back not WMO...
Help help..

maybe
I seem to remember reading somewhere that the cards inside sometime have a problem with connections directly into the interface, ie, they just arn't touching, like a loose battery in a flashlight. One solution was removing the cover, making sure the connection on the cards was tight or even taping them down to ensure contact (not quite sure about that one, use at own risk).
Hope this helps,

It is more likely that these memorycards in a strange way, seem to be destoyed under full format via my laptop and cardreader.
Always formated them Fat 32, so i don`t know what the hell is hapening
Borrowed my old card with android on, and i works perfectly..
Also tried to fomat his card and install android on it,and afterwards his hd2 couldn`t find it either?
The cards works perfectly through my pc?
