install wince on a SD card - General Questions and Answers

Hello people,
I have a low-rom-memory device (32mb) which comes with wince 5 installed, I would like to move the OS from the rom to a SD card which would be bootable.
I just need to figure out how can I make the bootloader to boot wince from the SD card.I think I have u-boot.
Shinelco 3500 gps navigator, CPU Atlas II 300mhz, 64mb ram, 32mb rom, 512mb integrated nand flash.
Thanks a lot!
ps
ehy, I was wondering, maybe I can also upgrade to WM 6 standard.. But I need to learn how to cook..No time for this!

After reading you que , ihad google in our froum but nither result found..
Its defintly cool to have os on mmc..

You experts!

No there is no way to do that.
First I should learn a bit more about your device, what the possiblillities are, before just flashing some roms.
Good luck!

Which WM5 device has an internal Storage Card like the BA

Hello,
Which of the new HTC devices with WM 5 as an integerated Storage Card like the Blue Angel has one??
I've seen that the Wizard hasn't got one.
We need this to persist some data like cab-files or databases on the device even if a hard reset is performed and we cannot put them into the Extended_Rom due to size limitations of the rom and due to limited access.
Thanks in advance
Markus
Hello Markus.Fritz.
To the best of my knowledge, no HTC device with WM5 has built in storage.
In fact as far as I know only Asus 636 has it of all the WM5 devices.
Here is the reason:
Before WM5 RAM was used for storage and running programs. To protect some data from deletion when battery runs out a lot of devices came with extra flash which was the built in storage.
On WM5 device RAM is only used for running programs and storage memory is flash any way so most manufacturers don't partition it for separate storage.
I am afraid EXT_ROM (which is built in storage only hidden) is your best option. On Jamin/QTEK s200/Prophet it can be hidden/unhidden (with full access) by a simple registry tweak. It's 10MB.
I think he's referring to a storage card port such as the SD Port on the BA.

Sounds to me like the post is about "File store", but Biohead may be right.
In that case, any phone has an SD or mini SD slot.
Jamin which I mentioned earlier has full SD.
No I'm not looking for a SD Card slot.
I'm looking for something similar to the Storage Folder at the Blue Angel

Is there any way to re-partition the device?
To my knowledge, only by using custom ROM.

about «ALL-IN-ONE Guide» by toomuchdogfur

Hi!
I've read this «ALL-IN-ONE Guide» by toomuchdogfur
(here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=273911&highlight=upgrading+magician).
Is important the Active-sync version for the rom upgrade?
I use 4.2.0 build 4876: I need to use another version?
I need to turn off Antivirus and firewall?
The sim card can be plugged in?
The guide tells «sd card 128mb preferred»: someone try to do the upgrade using bigger card?
Thanks!
w_s
The ActiveSync version doesn't matter, namely because ActiveSync isn't used in the upgrade.
You shouldn't need to turn off your antivirus or firewall as the upgrade doesn't use any applications that need to access the internet or any protected system resources.
The SIM card can be left in or taken out - the upgrade process doesn't touch it.
The recommended SD size is 128MB as ROMs are typically 64MB, though I like to keep the extra storage space there as a safeguard. However the larger the card, the longer the process will take as your Magician will, during backup, attempt to fill the entire SD card regardless of how big the actual ROM is. Also this will give you a bloated file size if you decide to copy your ROM to your computer (eg. If you backed up your ROM on a 256MB card, then it will be 256MB in size if you copy it to your computer). Having said that, you should be fine with SD cards up to 1GB as long as you don't mind the extra time and space required.
i foiund it was strange. i can't upgrade the rom in vista which had installed the mobile center.and i works very well when i copy files pc to ppc.but it still can't upgrade the rom.so i change to xp.Then setup the ActiveSync.at last i can upgrade the rom.. hehe to find a friend to train my poor english.my e-mail:[email protected] thanks
I will found a 128mb sd card for the occasion!
Thank you very much for your guide and your help,

..and some luck comes over us, if we need a special Hardware!Some HTC Devices handles SDHC, others do not...is this possible?Or not?
Extracting and installing the driver may be possible, Omap850 is there, but what about the CardSlot? Ive heard, there are some Specifications for SDHC...

SDHC driver
I happened to see a file called omap850_sdhc.dll in your own post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1407553&postcount=856
You opening this thread means this one doesn't work?
I already baught a 4 GB SDHC card a month ago to find out it doesn't work in any device i have... damn. Hope somebody can get a hold of the driver for us.
May not work..
...because ive read the sdhc.dll means HostControl and not HighCapacity....
yes arpy is right. i was misinformed. however, with that rom my system does not lag when writing (start & en) to card/
guys i've found some SD High Capacity dlls here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1462587&postcount=15
Install the cab (Storage.. or copy the files from the cab manually to \Windows) . I've tried it and I can use the card (with other dlls, eg from spv c100 or iphone rom , my storage card was not detected) [ however, the same system lag while writing to storage card]
I don't have a SDHC card to test.. so if someone has, please test it and report.

Hello,
Tried it on my Tornado, but doesn't work with SDHC. It doesn't detect the Storage Card. It does work with a 2 GB non-SDHC card. So no harm to install it, but you still cannot read SDHC. damn.
hi and thanks for testing
.. strange.. maybe we need newer version of omap850_sdhc.dll?
Unless I'm missing something here: The file you had linked was from a post in the Universal forums. The Universal doesn't have an OMAP850 cpu but an Intel Bulverde. Since the driver support is cpu dependent, it was to be expected that the one for the intel won't work for the omap.
Yes, but I can see and use the storage card with these dlls.
I've tried to copy sdbus.dll & sdmemory.dll from other WM5 build (omap850 smartphone) and the phone doesn't recognize the storage card anymore. After deleting these dlls (when deleting , the original file from ROM comes back) and rebooting , storage card is avaiable again.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=83392&d=1209243092
THANKS GreateVK and FreePK
Final questions:
Does it needs a hard reset of the device when applying?
Can you removed it afterwards if something gets wrong?
Thankkkks
Not hard reset only it requests to reinitiate device, after installing to driver, and it is possible removed in removing programs.
Sorry by my English
Cool looking forward to test it!
When applied this driver works with non SDHC card too right?
Now I'm having 2GB Sandisk micro sd card, if I apply this SDHC driver, this card (2GB non SDHC) will work with no complications, isn't so?
I make a test now with one microsd 256mb and she recognizes, no problem
Hey guys - Thanks a million for this. I installed on my blackjack WM5 and works fine. However, it is only showing 4gb total storage - Is there something I need to do differently to make the full 8Gb available?
I am guessing I will need to upgrade to WM6 - If so, can anybody point me in the direction of the upgrade for an Australian version? I have checked the promotion site http://www.samsungmobile.com/promotion/i600/index.jsp but Australia is not listed and my version number i600DTGE2 doesnt work.
Cheers
Brenden
Help.
I get the message:
The installation on the SDHC driver was unseccessfull!
I tried to install it from the phone memory and from the memory card, still no result.
What's going wrong?

Hi
I have a small problem, my i600 doesn't see sd cards at all. I was hoping this driver would help but it doesn't. My phone always worked, and than suddenly it doesn't show a card anymore.
I tried on WM5, WM6, 2 microSD cards (1gb and 2gb), and an HDSD 8gb card, but still nothing
