SanDisk 256Mb+WiFi (Of course not working)

Just recieved my 256Mb+Wifi sandisk SDcard. But not working. I looked at the sandisk website. MDAII NOT SUPPORTED!!!!.
This sucks..... But maybe someone has a fix to get it working.... Or is it hardware limited? It seems to start, (green led goes on) but nothing more.
Even the storage isn't recognized.
I even tried it in my XDAI. Wireless is dead, but the 256Mb is recognized.
Any hints would be nice.

As far as I am aware, it is not possible to get it working. My understanding is that Sandisk need to provide a version that does work with XDA/MDA II.

dcs is right...i was advised by my supplier not to buy one like that...they told me to buy wifi card without the storage instead

Firmware update
Does the new firmware that was released the other week rectify this? as when I tried installing the sandisk software it prompted me to overwritre newer files on my xda?

which firmware update is that? checked site tocday......
ive found some interesting stuff with this card on 2003SE. Under SE - the radio works! it constantly sends probes requests out (no ssid, chanel 0 ). If you use the app to turn radio off, u can then use the app to get ver info, power settings and add profiles. when the radio is on, the app is useless. I captured sum of the frames and they have the priism headers n all. So i really think that it is the utility not talkin to the driver properly...will keep trying and let u all know....

I am downloading the Pocket PC 2003 setup from the sandisk website and testing in on the 2.06 ROM. Will keep you guys posted on the results...

Sandisk PPC 2003 combo wifi drivers - Investigation Report
Investigation:
This set of drivers from the sandisk website is no good for the 2.06 ROM.
(a) It detects the storage as per the old 1.72 WM2003 ROM and requests for format, but it never did. However, when you detach the card, it does prompt you that the card was not formatted successfully.
(b) I attempt to initiate the wifi tools with Flight turned off and turned on. It refuses to detect the card.
(c) I cold reset the device with the card attached, and attempt to initiate the wifi tools with flight turned off and turned on again. It detected the card, launched the wifi tool and freezes.
(d) I uninstalled the SANDISK WIFI tools/drivers only and install Socket Wifi drivers. It didn't detect the combo card.
(e) To double-check that the Socket wifi drivers are working, I 've went ahead and inserted the 0MB Sandisk Wifi SD card only, and the Socket Wifi tools detected this card and allows Wifi connections.
Warning: The installation of the Sandisk drivers disabled detection of unother SD storage cards. Uninstallation didn't help. I've to hard reset and restore backups.
I've tested for the 2.06.00 WWE ROM installed on my XDA2 devices only. I would love to know if someone else has managed to get this combo card working! Many thanks to the gurus in this forum.

XDA II mini - Extended Rom
Yeah, checked extended rom, and files arent there, trying to narrow it down with files in windows folder.

someone with car working...NOT ON XDAII that is
hey,
going to try something else - can someone with the card working (on whatever device type) please have a squizz in their registry (or prog dir for .ini's or whatever) i cannot see anything (interesting) written in my reg and i have a suspicion that if we hak our correct config in there, the radio *might* pick it up. As i said previously - the radio works fine but as we cant use the utility to configure, it sends its probes out with ESSID: nul and chan: 0 .
i shouldnt say this, (false hope) but my XDA II did detect my local AP at one point, well - it said 'access point MY_ESSID found' or the like. good news, as i have never entered my essid into the device. of course a) didnt note config at the time (was super late) b) couldnt connect c) cant reproduce.
has anyone been able to read/format the memory? ad tip - write proctecting the card makes it more stable (seemingly).
i think that if we dont have someone on board to re-write either the Util/Driver/SD_Driver then we should start getting a petition to the vendors going - work arounds suck.......and i want to use stumbler

Seems that Sychip is the vendor that is producing the SD Wifi card, and not Sandisk nor Socket. I've news from various quarters that it's working on IMATE-JAM that has the souped up drivers, but Sychip is not releasing them officially yet.
Wonder if Mini has the same drivers as well?

TomTom 6 for car stereo running win ce 4.2

Hi all, a bit of a strange request.
I've recently bought a double din dvd (double height) car head unit, that has bluetooth & gps built in.
It runs win ce 4.2, with a reduced interfrace, limiting functions to gps, dvd, tv, radio, and bluetooth for phone.
it has two sd cards (no usb)
Apparently it can run route66 sat nav software, but I thought I'd try tomtom 6.
You can specify which nav software to run by specifying a path to an .exe file only.
Suprisingly tomtom runs, I get the disclaimer screen, then on press I agree, it displays "no maps found"
It's a long shot but does any one know how to:
a) Resolve the no maps problem
or
b) get access to more of the win ce o/s?

Where did you put the maps to?

Interesting. What radio brand/model are we talking here?
Maybe try inserting hte SD card in the other SD slot? mabe tomtom is looking in the wrong place....

Its a generic brand (from china)
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/T258-6-5-Two-...ameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting
Good unit.
I tried the maps in various locations (all on the sd card)
1. in the \Storage Card\Program Files\navigator\great britain
2. \Storage Card\great britain
3. \great britain
4. Just in the root.
Any ideas?

have you tried tomtom6 on a pda and found that it actually works?
where abouts are you in the uk?

Yep, I'm copying the installation that is working on my pda to this device via SD card.
I'm in london by the way

nice looking unit there!
I would have a look at the way win CE (which is a kernal that wm is based on) displays the storage card. In WM /storage card/ is a cute name that is given to the removable storage and tt6 may be looking for that specific lable.

Tomtom on wince
Hi
I am having similar issue i have purchased a similar product..
I have used the SD card from my PDA XDAII and I cant even run the application... How did you run the application???

I went into the Nav setup and hit options
The Navi options, which allows to to specify the path of the exe for the unit to run for sat nav.

TOMTOM
I have tried the same but it doesnt load the software...

any solution to the 1st thread these days?
I have the exact same problem as the original thread poster.
Did any one hear about/ solved it?

I can not even run Tomtom
Hi I got the similar unit. however, I cant even run tomtom. I did specify the .exe file to run for the nav. however, it just keeps disappointing to run it.

Heres how its done..
OK gentleman heres how its done..
This post is from another forum... His name is louthefirst on the forum i visit.
(1) Download this http://www.megaupload.com/?d=59W9BLJD
(2) Copy entire contents of Zip to SD Card an a file called TomTom
(3) Insert SD card in T7000 and turn T7000 on
(4) In navigation options screen select
\tomtom\OTHER SOFTWARE NEEDED\miotool
(5) Go back to navigation main screenand select navigate, (this will bring up a keyboard)
(6) In the top left corner there is a little square that hides and unhides the keyboard, HIDE IT.
(7) Go back to the navigation options screen and select
\tomtom\OTHER SOFTWARE NEEDED\RegEdit
(8) Go back to main screen and select, (this will bring up a regedit screen)
(9) Use registry editor go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
EXPLORER
SHELL FOLDERS
My Document
Click on My Documents and it will bring up a little box the bottom box need changing from my documents to \storagecard (REMEMBER BACKSLASH AND NO SPACES) To change it you will need to press the button in the top left to bring back the onscreen keyboad.
(10) Exit regeditor
(11) Go to navigate options and select \tomtom\tomtom navigator.exe
(12) Go back to navigate main screen and press navigate
Follow tomtom setup screen and thats it....
All thats left to do is add your MAP to \tomtom\ on the SD Card (GUAM IS ALREADY THERE SO YOU CAN TEST IT)

hi i have the same prob.
i did what you said in the instructions,and all seemed to work untill i rebooted my system,
it says no map found so i went into my registry and the My Document
has returned back to how it was instead of renamed to storagecard,
anyone any ideas please

ok i have the same unit, i can load tomtom fine, however the map keeps jumping when i drive, when im stationary, its fine.
Whats causing this?????

hello can anyone help with this???

this is the system:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....m=260250817967&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=016
apparently using Windows CE 4.2
The GPS keeps shifting when i drive so the maps keep jumping... driving me nutz now!

I was looking at getting one of those units for my Octavia, but was worried about TomTom running (or not).
It sounds like it definitely works.
I was really hoping to get TomTom 7 working on it but it sounds like there may be some issues with TT6?
I hope you work out why the map is jumping - do you mean it snapping to other roads which you are not on?
I have that very infrequently with my PDA. If you reset it and get a new satellite lock it cures it. Perhaps your GPS aerial needs repositioning behind the dash to improve sensitivity? DId you check the aerial hasn't come out of the rear of the unit?

it's considered rude to repeatedly ask for help but not reply with your result...

lol, sorry sickboi - i've been in kenya and the free wifi out there dnt really work (even the one u pay for at the hotel too!)
is there a tomtom 7?
i didnt think was a such a thing as tomtom 7 ... can anyone confirm this?
i still dont have the prob sorted sicko, so if u know of anyway i can sort it, would be great.

Does Garmin Mobile XT SD card work on Diamond

I have found many people that say their GMXT works on Diamond but I am not sure if they are using the DVD version or the SD card version. Obviously you would need to do something to get it off ot the SD card but are any of you doing this and if so what do you have to do?
Thanks DHATW.
I quess this is really a software question (was thinking bluetooth=accessory). I will repost in software.

Yes it works, but you have to push the SD-cart really hard to get it in
... but seriously i'm pretty sure, have some downloaded stuff which orginates from a card and its working fine

Thanks, but how do you do it? Garmin says you can't do it. I know it has been done but am looking for the how.

Dude you can download it. But its not free. Although there are always ways. I have it running on mine just fine.

You can download directly from garmin:
https://buy.garmin.com/shop/store/downloadsUpdates.jsp?product=010-11034-00&cID=138&pID=11413
But you need license key to activate to use with internal GPS.

Okay maybe I'm misunderstanding something. I have the SD card version running on my HTC Touch right now. I spoke to Garmin and they told me they do not have a solution for the Diamond about a month ago. I have already downloaded 5.00.20 for my Touch. When you do it looks for the SD card on the phone. I am not looking for free software. I just want to know how I can run the existing solution (SD card or purchase DVD) on my next phone (my wife has already let me know I am getting one for Christmas-that's if Rogers ever gets it) the Diamond. I realize there are always ways but I am not one of those guys that believes everything should be free. I just want a reliable, updateable and Garmin supportable version that works.
I know CoPilot 7 has a North American version that is made for the Diamond but I have been a Garmin fan for a long time.
Thanks, DHATW.

works for me
hi
i found a totourial i the net, bought garmin xt for win mobile, and i works
you have to conenct your diamond as external harddisc --> you could install gamin XT
after installation i copyied all files from the SD-card to the storage on diamond
at last you have to generate keys for the internal gps-receiver (and overwrite SWL.UNL and for the serial of the internal storage of your phone
if you look a littel bit around you will find a helpful tool from jet mouse...
andreas

Quite easy
I bought a Diamond Touch with the Garmin XT software. ( And unlock code)
The previous owner hard reset the phone to wipe out his entries,
All I did was sync the phone, copy all the files from the SD card into the expanded memory of the phone, and opened the install software from thre phone.
You have to enter the unlock key and the device then connects and sends a SMS to confirm sucessfull installation. (Or something like that)
Hey, I am no genius, but I worked it out, as I knew the program was installed before.

Thanks Basilrsa, I will try that when I get my Diamond. Maybe all the other instructions were for people that did not have a "legal" copy of GMXT.
Thank you again.

I'm trying to install Garmin Mobile XT by copying the files from the SD card to my internal storage, the phone recognises it and installs and runs it OK.
The problem I have is that the internal GPS is not detected and it just keeps searching bluetooth then attached gps constantly (the progress bar on attached GPS goes about half way and the bluetooth only goes quarter way so I think it is partially detecting).
It is a legal boxed SD card from Garmin that worked on the Touch Cruise and I just want to transfer to this phone. I don't want to run any Keygen exe's on my computer, has anyone found another way of getting the internal GPS to be detected?
I did try it in a good reception area and verified this using CameraAware.

hi
afaik garmin uses two files for licensing:
one with a key for the sd card and one for gps receiver
both were generated on a hardware serial of card and receiver
--> i think there is no way to get garmin working without using new license files
greetings
dopsi

Hi
I am not too sure if you can reinstall the Garmin XT software on another device.
The licence is for installation on a single device. When you register it looks for this device identification.
Maybe if you are trying to install on a different device, it will not release to software to operate.
I think you may have to contact Garmin and discuss it with them.
But, XT does install on the Diamond - mine works fine!
But hey, you had better get a car charger as it sucks the battery dry in no time.

It looks like the GPS receiver costs £67 from Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000TSJV58/incomp-1-130534-21/ref=nosim) but I wouldn't buy it anyway as I bought a phone with in-built GPS so I didn't have to carry 2 devices.
I think it's safe to say Garmin will not be getting any more money from me and I'd rather buy something else. I just wish tomtom would release a diamond version 7 in UK. I've heard bad reports about CoPilot so don't really want to spend the money on that to find it is bad.

Garmin XT. - Garmin's comments.
Hi Kevlah,
" So, what we do here is when we load the data to the preloaded
> card we unlock the maps to the unit ID of that card, what this means is
> that the data cannot be copied to the phones internal memory or another
> card as the other format will have a different or no unit ID"
I cannot agreed with the above statement as I transferred all the files to my Diamond's ext memory and opened the installation program from there.
I am not sure now which file I used but I had to try a few.
I had to enter the supplied unlock code and later a SMS was sent with the GPS unlock code. I did not have to enter that.
Then, it worked!
But as I said in my post it was a reinstallation on my phone.

[A] Mapping Network Drives using HTC's Network Plugin

I've tried using Resco Explorer 7.05/Total Commander 2.5.1/HTC's Network Plugin
For some reason i can't seem to map network drives.
In resco when i try to connect to a drive it tells me it's not accessible
In Total Commander it just doesn't connect
In HTC's Network plugin it writes: "Map Drive Failed"
-I'm using Vista on the comp i want to share folders in.
-Sharing works fine on all comps other than in my PPC (not password protected)
-It seems as not only it doesn't map the drive but doesn't acknowledge as anything but the computers on the network exist. no folders inside those computers. Thought about changing my ppc's domain but i don't know how to do that.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks

Yeah, VISTA FILE SHARING is a bit tricky! You not only have to share that particular drive / folder; you also have to check the settings in the SHARING CENTER - in addition you might have to adjust the file permissions as well.

Everything is perfect on file settings. i have a network running 3 computers and 2 laptops all sharing folders no passwords all permissions set. only thing not able to read the folders is the PPC. It finds the comps on the network but doesn't show the folders.

Did you MOUNT the drives in RESCO? You can't just click on it in the FILE EXPLORER - tap and hold, then select MOUNT DRIVE or FOLDER (depending on what you're sharing).
What RESCO VERSION did you use?

dude... i can't see drives nor folders.
i'm using 7.05
for the record, i tried looking at a winxp comp instead of a vista one.. can't see anything.
tried accessing through ip and name.. both come out with nothing..

I wish someone would help with this also. I have two computers and 1 ppc on my home network. My ppc(HTC Titan) used to be able to access both computers. Then all of a sudden it stopped working for my main computer(bedroom) with all MY files on it, but it still accesses files on my second computer(upstairs). On the main computer(bedroom) I can access the shared folders of the second computer(upstairs), but the second computer can't access the files from the main computer.I dont know whats wrong, but it seems more like a computer issue. I operate Windows XP on a Dell. The network folder used to work perfectly for me and I can't put my fiinger on what's blocking it.
This might be the wrong thread to post this issue(maybe the wrong website) but I thought I would ask since the issues are similar. If it's a ppc program for accessing the shared folders on a computer, then someone should have a How-To or a check list of how to set both up for the program to work fluently. Can somebody please post what you need to do on the computers to ensure sharability of the file systems.
The reason why this is so important to me is because I have been hooking-up my Titan since may 2008 and I am near completion. I'm totally done adding app's and the functionality of the device is superb except for this issue. Just bought a 16gb micro sdhc card and that works great. My girlfriend just ordered a seido 3500mah extended battery with the door to fit and a rubberized hard case for extended battery fit. I'm so excited about have the best phone setup of my life but I everytime I go back to this issue I get pissed off. It was all good til about 4 months ago and I don't know why it suddenly stopped working. Please HELP!!!

If the HTC Network plugin is not locating your shared files on your network, this likely suggest that it is an issue with your network settings. I suggest playing around with your security settings; however, I just recently had a problem accessing any of my shared files over any of my computers between each other and between my HTC Device. It just suddenly stopped working. I knew that I didn't change any settings myself and had tried many things to try to resolve the problem without success. I then decided to run my anti-spyware programs and Anti-Virus programs and let them run overnight. In the morning, the Anti-spyware removed several things - One was labeled as high risk and the others were low and the Anti-Virus found two high risk viruses. Everything was taken care of automatically and voila - I had no problems connecting to my shared files with my computers or my HTC Device. I ran the spyware and virus check programs again and everyting was clean.

the problem is that i can't even map the drives. i can see the comps on the network using the HTC Network Plugin but can't do anything other than that. when i try mapping a drive it tells me that i can't.. for some reason.
i removed password protection...shared the drive... nothing works.

I am assuming you are trying to connect through WIFI -
Make sure that you are actually connected to your network. My device has on several occasions connected to my neighbours wifi rather then my own - results in not being able to access shared folders
Through HTC NEtwork plugin you are exploring the computer for the shared folders right? You say you can see the computers - when you click the plus next to the specified computer in the network plugin are you getting any results at all there.
Make sure you don't have (I don't know if this is what it is called) MAC address filter or password. One of my friends has an open WIFI Network but has MAC Address filter which stops you from actually being able to use the network. You can connect but that is it. You wouldn't be able to surf the internet at all through WIFI either if this was the problem.
If it is none of these, Maybe it is a Windows VIsta problem - I don't know, I have XP
Do you have trouble connecting to other shared folders on other peoples WIFI networks also? (people who have XP)

-XP doesn't work either.
-i can see the comps, so i'm obviously connected to the network.
-i have mac filtering - see previous statement
-wifi works - see previous previous statement
dunno what to do.

Maybe something with your WIFI Settings on your device then?
Maybe you can review your settings on your device - Anythign that you think might be causing the problem - Describe it here, I will check my device settings (even though different devices - should still be the same - and will let you know if there are any differences. I must go eat dinner right now, but will check back after supper and bathing my daughter and putting her to bed. in a hour and a half two hours from now...

Set your desktop to support NTLM instead of just NTLMv2.
That way I got shared folders working with the HTC Network Plugin and my Vista desktop. Unfortunately some HTC apps (like HTC Camera) only expect your device to have two drives (internal ROM and flash card) so when you mount a network drive, they can't access your flash card.

Well, i can start searching, but if you don't mind, could you tell me how to do that?

I wish it worked for me too, but when I get to the "Group Policy Object Editor" I'm getting lost. I don't see that anywhere. Is my computer missing important files? I'm using windows xp. I hope I don't have to restore the whole computer to get the file sharing working. But if I gotta do it I will.the phone see's the computer, but no file sharing. It is that important to me to share files between my phone and computer. My home setup is sweet, and my phone is an extension of it.

Any Other Ideas
So, I have gone through and done everything suggested here. Lan Authentication, created private network, reconnect, everything I can think of...nothing seems to work
Does anyone have any further ideas about what could possibly work to create a LAN over WIFI?

Have created an adhock private network...connected to it on my device no problem. But when i go to search for my computer in network plugin under the browse menu it thinks about it and in the end doesn't see anything...
so, at wits end...I know I am new but most of the info over is fairly beyond my level I am certinaly a lurker and no info over at PPC Geeks with solutions...either way alot of the stuff over there comes from over here so thought I would see if anyone had some suggestions.
thanks for the help,

USB to PC connection missing and Wifi problems

I have searched extensively and can't find answers that work for me.
I have tried several of the latest 6.5.1 and 6.5.3 roms on my Wing (which is HardSPL'd) and almost all of them have the same issues:
1) My USB to PC icon is gone in Settings\Connections. Did MS move it somewhere else? I'm having Activesync issues and think this is why, but can't change the "advanced network setting."
2) Wifi... I tap on it to turn it on or off, and more than half the time, nothing happens. It'll either stay on, or stay off. Ideas?
I had some of the same issues with some older 6.5 roms as well. Do I need to update/downgrade some of the individual device drivers or something? I'm at a loss.
Thanks, and sorry if this repeats anyone else's posts.

I am also having similar issues. I HardSPLed my wing and after I did that successfully I decided to update my wing with SIMPLY EVERYTHING 6.5.1 BUILD 23616 so I flashed it on my wing. It's installed fine and is working but now my wing doesn't connect via active sync to my PC (same PC i used to HardSPL my wing and flash this build). The USB cable is connected firmly as it does charge my phone, just fails to connect the phone with the PC via active sync.
I would really appreciate if someone can either provide a fix for this issue on this thread or tell us a way to somehow flash the device with another ROM (from storage card somehow).
Thanks in advance.

Sort of solved...
This is the one I found that works best on my Wing:
Search forums for "Illconcepts Current Projects" (won't let me post a link)
(the 28014 Titanium at the top of the page)
It is flashed from SD card like most are now (nice!).
Occasionally (usually after soft reset) the first time I try to turn on wifi it will fail to start the wifi, but it works after that until next soft reset. Have had no connection issues with ActiveSync.
Big plus of this rom is that it's fast, is lean and leaves lots of program space. I added Office and such, but on the SD card, so I can still run Skyfire (just about every other rom I tried didn't have enough program memory free to consistently run Skyfire after I installed all my standard programs).
Only down side I see (if this is one?) is that it has old PIE, not newer version, and PIE doesn't work properly at all. Only problem this has caused me is making it difficult to download/install java apps easily, as Opera Mini always seems to give me "invoke errors" when I try to download files, and since Skyfire only seems to be detected as a "full" browser, it won't pull up mobile versions of most sites, thus won't get access to the java app links, etc. Would be nice to hear of a solution for this (preferably how to fix Opera Mini's "Opera Invoke Error")

i guess this wil help u all coz it worked for me

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
all you guys just need to open network cards under connections in settings. just tap the Sdio wlan wirelss adapter and then select name servers and copy the dns and alt dns as the same as in your desktops. Select ok and restart your phone..
it should work just fine...
all the best..

uh...no...
Doesn't have anything to do with DNS settings. DNS settings doesn't affect whether or not the wifi card turns ON or OFF. It affects connections. This is different, dude.
