Help copying files off my HTC - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

I have some files on my 4GB mem card in my kaiser and I want to copy them off. The problem is the only files that seem to copy are mp3's. None of my photos, or other files copy at all.
I tried to remove the mem card and put it in my card reader but it asks me to format it first.
Is there a file sharing plugin/software I can install on my kaiser to make it easier to copy files from-to my Kaiser?
P.S. yes, i turned off the convert settings..

u tried WM5 storage? might not work but worth a try.

tried the wm5torage program. It seems to work on WM6 but again, I was nailed by the NEED TO FORMAT error similarly to when I put the mem card in my reader.
I downloaded a free PPC FTP client and am currently FTPing files to my desktop.
what a pain

question about the SD

hello..i want to ask u guys about the SD ..
someone told me that the SD will not work in any other device but the u r using..
is that true?
thx
well no unless you are somehow using the nativ encryption in the card then unless the password or whatever are using the card cant be used never heard anybody using it though
so if i changed my device (i'm using an i-mate) in the futrue to nokia or whteer can i still use the same SD ?
yep the nokia of cause would not be able to read ½ the data if it was written for the imate
i mean if it was like that there would be no such thing as a sdcard reader which many of us use to get data to the sdcards
Yeah in your case the different operating systems from iMate and Nokia means the data (files saved) on the SD card would be different but the SD hardware is compatible to both.
That allows us to use more than one card in our digicams, ppc's etc and swap them around as we like.
Ed
ok what can i do to get my data saved on the SD (from the i-mate) on other operating systems ?
even the images like JPG won't work?
thx
I'd suggest you could try to copy the files you want from the SD card to your PC, then format the SD card in your new device, then copy the files back to the SD.
Ed
so lets say my i-mate is broken.,,
and i havn't copy my data to the pc..
and try to put the sd on other device...will it work?
even if its on a ppc?
If the device you try to read it in has the same operating system as the device which write to the SD in the first place then yes. For example I'm pretty sure any PPC will read an SD card written to by another PPC.
Or if it was written to by a PPC then you can also read it in a windows based PC using an SD card reader.
Ed
aha..
but i don't think that the data like JPG's and AVI's , MPEG's....etc will not work?
will it work?
and thx again

HELP! What's in my SD?

I am using the Darkforce ROM of WM 6.1, after I insert a SD in my Universal, I found that aa file generated automatically called "EncFiltLog.menc". It will continuous exist no matter I deleted it or not.
Anyone know what is "EncFiltLog.menc"??
By the way, I am using Transcend 16GB SDHC. Today, I found that my PPC can't detect it suddenly, I tried to insert it on my NB, but there are some files halt! When I double click it and wait for a moment, a messege box appear and say there are some problem about I/O device. No any device can detect my card now, anyone know what's the issue? I even can't format it now...
Please HELP!!
THANKS YOU VERY MUCH!
.menc files
.menc files are encrypted files.
When you set the option to encrypt files (Start\Settings\System\Encryption) then anything new that is saved to your SD card will be encrypted (and will have this extension - although this extension doesn't appear when viewing from the device that encrypted the files).
To read the file, you must view it via your device. (You can view/transfer it onto your PC via active sync from the device that encrypted it).
If you have reflashed your device without backing up your SD via active sync, then I don't think there is any way of recovering the file . (NB. I copy everything from my SD card to my computer before reflashing, and then copy it all back again ).
Hi my friend!
I had the same issue but with things 4.1 ROM. I don't know how, but i tried every day to format my sd card, and after 5 days it worked I have also this file in the root... It's the encryption file i think...
Mine was a 2GB panasonic SD not an SDHC... Keep trying!
Thanks for all reply!
But I found that I haven't tick the option of"Start\Setting\System\Encryption" , but the file still exist! I don't know why...
Any my SD issue....
I an using this ROM for few weeks already, but not newly flashed. My SD have no problem before. Haven't backup the datas is my mistake! I am so regreted. My SD is now can't detect from all device, and I can't format it also.
ALL DATAS ARE LOST!! Just wanna cry!
damaged sd-card!
Hi! Had the same problem with my new kaiser. Also thought about problem of ROM or the device itself. But it was just the SD-Card itself. Bougth a new one - no probs anymore...
any true solutions to this?
I have this same problem, so the only way to fix it is to get a new card?
Step By Step To Delete File EncFiltLog.menc (EFLG.m)
1) Insert your SD into Card Reader Cut EFLG.m
2) Paste insde your PC
3) Defrag your SD card
4) Select Option Tools>Folder Options>View Select Show hidden file
5) Now you can see new folder ie File 0000
6) Delete the folder
7) Now your SD card become as original
I read somewhere (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2718217&postcount=9) that the hidden file "EncFiltLog.menc" is stored on every SD-Card by WindowsMobile weather encryption is activated or not.
So it should be no problem to have it on the card - as long as everything works.

how to transfer data to new Micro SD card?

My Touch Pro came with a 1g MicroSD card. So...I started installing stuff on it already. Programs were installed in the card either by .cab file or through windows. Now I'm thinking of buying a larger MicroSD card....do i need to reinstall everything or can I just copy everything from the old card to the new one and it would be as if I didn't change anything?
Thanks
If you copy everything (including any normally hidden system files) then you should be fine and NOT have to reinstall any of your .cab files......
.
ahh, that's good to hear
I assume, using the PC to copy it will work since the PC sees all the files right?
ok, got my 4g micro sd and used activesync to transfer all files to a temp dir and move it all to the new card. I made sure that windows explorer could see hidden files and turned off that hidden operating system bit. works great
Yep I did the same from my tiny winy 4gbB to a barely adequate 16gb.

Just a bit of advice, next time, extract the micro-SD card, put it in a microsd 2 USB adaptor.
Copy/paste all files in a temp dir on your PC.
Remove the card from adaptor, place the new one. Copy all the files back on the new card.
Copy made through a USB card reader is definitly faster than a regular activesync copy !
Hope this helps !
Hi Guys,
I also found that if I have to transfer quite a lot of data to the PC it's much faster to switch the Touch Pro to 'Disk Drive' mode instead of 'ActiveSync' mode, then it's really quick!
Good for backing up the storage card etc.
Cheers,
D.

2 Things

Hi ... i want to know if is posible how to dump a rom from my htc polaris.
and if some one know why mi SHDC 8Gb Trascend give me some problems about write or read between the PDA and the PC by de USB cable, or also with the TotalCommander inside the PDA, with a 2Gb i was the some problem, but with the Windows Explorer in the PDA i not have these problem.
Thanks a lot every all.
When transferring data from FAT32 (I think you can transfer up to about a gig when formatted in FAT 32, correct me if i'm wwrong though ...) formatted devices there is a data limit that NTFS does not suffer from, i don't know if the cruise can accept a NTFS formmated card, but it may be worth a try.
Ok .. i formated the microSD on FAT32 in my Windows Vista ... and .. the problem is when i want to transfer any file of any size from the PC to the PDA across the USB and Active Sync or the new Active Sync on Vista.
Also if i copy a file from the microSD to the main memory with the totalcommander it give a error, just if i use the Windows Explorer that came on the PDA to move or copy file inside the PDA beteween the microSD and e main memory i not have an error.
This problem i have also with a 2Gb microSD.
If i put the microSD on the laptop or desktop, with the adapter i can move, copy, etc.etc. with not problem.
Some one know about dump a room from the PDA to can have a backup to reflash to can execute de warranty on the telco ?.
Thanks alot against
i tried formatin on NTFS but in this file system the phone do not see the card
why not just format the sd from the touch cruise?

Invisible Files on MicroSD Card?

All of the sudden, all the files on my SD card went missing! I was transferring music and video files to the device over USB (as a storage card, per the custom ROM USB/PC feature) and after it was done, it showed my card as blank.
I took the card out of the phone (XV6900) and put it into my SD adapter and into my computer. The 4GB card shows that 1.8GB are in use when I go to properties, however, there are no files at all in the root of the drive! Like they are invisible! (Yes, I have Windows set to show all hidden and system files, so that is not the problem)
How do I get my files to reappear? It looks like they are not actually deleted! i don't get why this happened all of the sudden
you can try an undelete program and check the sdcard while in the reader
undelete programs can handle sdreaders just like they can hd's

I'm using the same 4GB card as my old phones. this never happened on my Titan or TouchPro, each of which I have for a year or so. I have had a Vogue for 1 week and it has happened twice! does the XV6900 wipe the card periodically or when performing certain actions? even on a ROM update/flash it should touch the SD card when running from the RUU package in windows
