active sync damn slow - HTC Vox

hey
i've a realy big problem
yesterday ive started copzing educkys map to vox via active sync (yesterday 13°°(germany) now its 8°° and its still not finished!
there are "only" 2.2gb to transfer yes its still transfering!
what on hell can i do making it faster
i already have an cardreade rbut i lend it to a friend so ive to use active sync.

Ofcourse you can try wm5torage. It makes your vox a cardreader. This way you don't have to use AS.

WM5Storage is even slower than Activesync

Why making such a fuzz about AS or WM5storage? The USB hardware on most HTC phones can only cope with the slowest speed for USB. My experience is that WM5torage is about double the speed of AS and AS varies if in RNDIS or Serial mode. Fastest write I get on my Vox is around 300kB/sec (and 700kB/sec at read) for large files. If you have to transfer a lot of data (like your 2.2 Gig), just pull out the microSD (hey it is hot-pluggable!), put it in a card-reader and load it via this. My 8GB class6 Sandisk microSD came with a tiny reader and that writes at a speed of 10MB/sec. I never have the patience to do this via AS or WM5torage.

Is there any way nueMassstorage can be ported to Vox? Asking all the Genuses here (not mere dumb users like me ). It gives awesome speed!

The slowth is caused by the hardware, not the software.
Use a decent cardreader instead.

No software will bring the HW to speeds it cannot support. Follow up the WM5torage thread at MoDaCo. Some (very few) devices have both, capable USB Hardware and a decent USB driver in firmware that allows to exploit the full HW speed. Otherwise buy a tiny microSD cardreader for 5$ and enjoy speeds you never seen before...

The Gene and Vox has almost the same hardware, but the difference of speed is quite remarkable between WM5Storage and nuemassstorage, BTW I have used both the software in the Gene and confirmed it.

USB on the go

Do USB on the go devices work on Windows mobile 2003 SE, like that mp3 player of iaudio and is it possible to play files of a usb on the go device???????
i'm not 100% but i recall that last time it was up (maybe search can find that thread)
people said that the ati chip in the xda2 supported it but the ati chip dident control the usb of the device so it was up to the xcale cpu which dident support it
nah tryed searching with a few querys, didnt work and searching manualy is like searching for a needle in a haystag....
anyway, but file transefer is possible?, cuz i have a 1gb sd and its not realy hard to transfere stuff from the unit to the pda (thouh it wil be painstakingly slow :? )
hhmmm your sd card would use the SDIO connector
it's not the same thing as the usb connector
i use sd cards all the time they are ok
here is the thread i think i was talking about....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13518&highlight=usb
and this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4733&highlight=usb
Tnx Rudegar, i was also searching, found one of them.
so from what i read, its not possible to connect my magician to a usb-on-the-go device....

Turn your device to USB flash drive

Softick Card Export II for Pocket PC turns your Pocket PC and Windows Mobile PDA into USB flash drive.
http://www.softick.com/download.php
Holy crap, this is nice.
But trial version? Please make sure you mention things like this =]
But yeah, installed, tested great. Puts a little icon in your "System Tray" to select between "Activesync" and "Card Reader".
Works on my Magician, connecting to XPSP1 machine. Yes, it had to install drivers but the drivers were native so in about 10 seconds I had access to my SD Card.
Did a quick file transfer test - MUCH faster than Activesync.
This might save me having to carry my card reader everywhere, despite the fact that the cable doubles as my Magician charger ;D
Now check this
change your owner name to
Dcs [RCAPDA]
then see what happen
Haha, thanks, but I've already fixed that little problem ;D
No go with the latest Qtek rom.
It say's you will have to download the newest USB driver ?!?!? :shock:
I discoverd that this one is for WM2003, downloaded the one for wm2005 but won't work either.
Lets see if there is an update some day.
Cheers,
Drifter

on the download site
http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/
there are three downloads
1. ZIP Microsoft Windows Installation (English)
2. CAB package for Windows Mobile 2003 (English)
3. CAB package for Windows Mobile 2005 (English)
first one ZIP is ver 2.21
others are ver 2.11
try the zip
and they say
We are permanently developing support for the new devices. Tell us what device support do you need.
try it hope you get some luck
hay Jed D`Lagged tell me the secret
next time i will be careful to mention about trial versions
Unfortunately, it seems only to function in Read-only mode on WM2005, and quite slowly too. (at least on my himalaya)
You can make your phone a USB drive without extra software. I have read that it can be done. Havn't done it yet with my 6700, but did with my 6600 but cant remember how I did it
The WM5 one works a treat on my Universal and Wizard. Or rather,it did untill I upgraded the roms to direct push capable ones. Now I have to disable direct push and kill activesync before switching the card export to 'export' mode. Irritating but still quiet usable.
If you're worried about the trial version you could alway, er, buy it! It's cheep!
USB mass storage driver
i dont know what is this & what will it do ?
USB mass storage driver is free for personal use
http://www.deje.gmxhome.de/software.html
... wrong way around. That installs a driver that let's you plug USB thumb drives into your PocketPC.
Although... I don't know any Pocket PC devices that have a USB Slot A connection?
The Fujistu-Siemens Loox (older model) had a USB host.
Thanks
Thanks
an alternative freeware which seems to work nicely on Himas (can't speak for rest)....

Host function for ASUS P525 ?

Hi,
First, I'm new around here, so hello everyone!
I've purchased a P525 which I should receive soon.
My question
According to this article, the P525 might qualify as being host capable, meaning one could plug some USB card reader into the P525 USB port and use whatever data stored on a CF or SD card for instance. For example, I have a card reader and a 8GB CF card filled with music would it be possible to use this data using the P525? Does anyone ever attempted to use some host function on a P525?
I've googled this topic in every way but found no one that ever mentioned this was tried on a P525...
Huh? No one ever tried if host function works on a P525 ??
OK then, an easy one : I've noticed some of you are using a 4GB minisd card on their P525. I know the device will not comply with SDHC standard, but what about regular minisd? What combination of brand (TOPRAM?) and ROM does this need to work?
MANY THANKS !!
P525 has no support for USB host. This is hardware limitation.

Thank you Ingvarr ! Well, I've asked because if you follow the link to the article in my first post, you would read this:
«Intel has built in USB Host functionality into the PXA27x series of chips»
But of course, if ASUS never implemented it ... that's way too bad - unless someone finds out it can be done using a software solution. I just hope I'll find the way to have a 4GB minisd card to work with the P525, because 2GB is just too short.
HERE
There's someone named Ingvarr (coincidence?) who designed a nice little program that can play host with a WM5 device.
Can't wait to try it on my P525 once I get it...
OUPS ! Sorry Ingvarr.. I've just realized your app is not meant for what I had in mind... Nice program though.

Faraday (Cingular 2125) crashes running TCPMP

Hi,
I like my Faraday (Cingular 2125) vs. my old Audiovox 5600 (C500 I think is also known as) because of its screen brightness, newer OS, and also I can copy files over to it using wm5torage without having to remove the minisd card; however, it crashes on me a lot when running TCPMP to view avi files, these are the same files I use with the 5600 using the same version of TCPMP (version 0.72RC1). I'm kind of discouraged and was wondering if anyone else have the same problem. what happens is I can watch for say 10 minutes then the smartphone version of the windows hourglass (you know that round circle signaling it's busy) would come up and i can't watch anymore, the phone doesn't actually crash but I just can't use TCPMP anymore. I can turn the phone off but turning it back on requires a battery removal.
I've already tried using an older version of TCPMP (0.71) and that didn't solve it either.
i don't believe there's any rom update for this phone (but if there's one please point me to it).
anyway, please give me any advice that you may have. man, i like this phone but i just can't stand it much longer.
thanks in advance!

I'm not sure if it'd help: did you try playing with the video settings?
yes I did
yes I played around with numerous video settings but no luck. thanks though! i think i may go back to my good old SmT5600
had the same problem on my tmobile sda but i never got to fix this problem because i lost it days later but found a SMT5600 a week later and i dont have this problem on it not even now that i have it upgraded to WM6
i switched back
yeah, i just switched back to my 5600. the one main reason i wanted to try a 2125 was because it could run the utility WM5TORAGE that treats its storage card like a USB mass storage device, hence copying files to it was fast. however, i just found out today that when using activeSync to copy files to my 5600, there's a setting in activesync to tell it not to convert to the mobile device format which helped speed up the copying quite a bit so I'm pretty content to be with my 5600 again.
I upgraded to WM6 once with my 5600 also, but the number of features felt quite overwhelming plus it seemed a little slower. does it feel like that to you?
can you point me to the wm6 rom that you used? i may try it out if it's different than the one i had used.
thanks.
for me it feels like it has a good speed not normal but good enough to do things and not get made for the slowness and for the rom i used the one in the link on my signature (Audiovox SMT 5600 (HTC Typhoon) with WM6 < check it out) it may be missing things and may have bugs but for now it is mostly stable
Ill wait for some one to make a better rom

CF card not working

I'm very sad and I'm hoping someone can help me with ANY idea that might work. I just bought a LifeView FlyPresenter CF card for my pda because I heard awesome things about it. Unfortunately any and all attempts to install the card so far have been unsuccessful with any driver version I could find. Plugging the card in hangs the pda until I remove it and soft-resetting with the card in hangs the boot process...when I remove it the thing boots normally and then gives me an error box saying it can't recognize the card (which I pulled out) and is looking for me to tell it what driver to use. I tried typing the driver name in the box but that did nothing, probably because I can't get the error box and have the card plugged in simultaneously. The Card is supposedly written for PPC 2002 and 2003 and I figured that it'd be compatible with WM6 but maybe I was mistaken....the software seemed to install normally and the app shows up on the programs list though.
So....I'm hoping somebody can help me either A) get the thing working or B) tell me how to trick the device into acting like a ppc 2003 or something crazy like that so that I can use the card in some limited way. It has a lot of awesome software and full motion video out that I want to take advantage of. Thank you for your kind support.
IPAQ 210 Enterprise
WM6 Classic (non cooked)
81 MB free RAM
39 MB free space on the device
Anybody? I'm totally helpless at this point...
hi there, the drivers are imcompatible i have a Lifview cam, its a noshow on my 6.1 custom, you need 2003/se for it to work.
Sorry

Aww ****..... Is there anyway to emulate the OS on a wm6 device? I don't care how complicated or weird it is....any means of running the hardware would be better than having to sell this thing after I just bought it.

Sorry, i don't thinks its possible.
Hey have you seen on their website that they have SDK software? I just saw it now. Apparently it allows you to write drivers for whatever platform you want by simply using their dll files and writing the drivers for them. Problem is the link is 404 and I can't find the sdk anywhere else. I know they have the same software for the flycam too. Maybe if we each are able to find our respective versions of the SDK we can both use our hardware again.
Any ideas where I could find the SDK? My methods of searching for things are limited to google but you might know where else such things are likely to be found...
