Wizard as storage device

Guys I saw somewhere on the forum or somewhere online that the wizard can be used like a removable drive but i lost the link. I tried searching the forums, but to no avail, can someone point me in the right direction once again?
Thanks

HI
Yes... Simple..

It doesnt work, it says something about not being able to find the indicated storage card. How do i use this with my mini sd inside my G3 wizard? with WM6 "the real thing" flashed to it,
Its not working for me either... I copied the files from the compressed folder and into the root of my mini SD card and with the default settings I clicked "Activate" and I got the following error: "can't open the selected card/disk device". What am I missing?
try other version of wm5storage then... one of them must work.
and make SR after install to be sure, if its not working...
cannot check, but theres version, that works...1.73 works, i think:

Are you copying WM5torage to your SD Card? Try and copy into My Device\Prgram Files\WM5torage and then try and activate it... If I'm not mistaken access to the SD card is lost on the Wizard if you enable WM5torage.. Thus having the application installed on the SD card cannot grant access to the SD Card because WM5torage itself (or perhaps other apps) are currently hogging access to the SDCard

as far, i remember it MUST work,...anyway...
You've got both the WM5torage.exe AND the DLL and you installed from CAB and restarted as it demanded right?
yes I have both the .exe and .dll but I don't have a cab to install it and I did not restart.

Install it on the device. Not the storage card.
Like what was said by TipEx "Try and copy into My Device\Prgram Files\WM5torage and then try and activate it..."
i don't have cab to install it, i just copy it from the zip file to my device but it still doesnt work. do i start this before i connect a usb cable or while its connected?
Both order should not have problem.
However despite I can run wm5torage and connect to desktop successfully (Built into WM6 Underground), the connection is very slow (<20kb/s) and unstable (displaying I/O error while copying), I don't know what the problem is.

miniSD card showing strange letters..

Hi all..
I've been using a TwinMOS 2GB x66 cad for 2 months now, and rarely I had the problem of disappearing storage card, but a simple SR or inserting the card again solved the problem.
Since a couple of hours, the symptom has come back, but now nothing solves it I've done a dozen of SR and inserted the card several times, but still the same problem: some folders are empty, and others are written in strange letters. the card isn't actually disappearing at all, ilauncher still shows its correct size, but all folders are corrupted.
I have the feeling that all this happened after installing the free medical program EPOCRATES, since only this program's folder was viewable in the program files folder on the storage card, and all others simply disappeared. Of course uninstalling the software didn't help
Any idea guys???
Thanks in advance.
Did you try to install this cab. It's for the htc p3300 but it's work too for the htc p3600 ...
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545&device=htcp3600
Isn't it strange that this patch has been published by HTC only mentionning the pb on P3300 and not ont the P3600 ?
Are you sure applying it on a P3600 is safe ?
Yes, i am...I apply it to mine and it's work fine... I didn't have some problems with my mini-sd card but with my sim+ (128 Mo) and now it's more stable !!
And as you can see the link i put is for the htc p3600.
This cab works also with the htc :
- S310
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545&device=htcs310
- S710
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545&device=htcs710
This has been posted before in various threads, but just to repeat:
The cab mentioned is for the Artemis/P3300. It installs one file to \windows: omap850_sdhc.dll, which is the SD driver for a device with a TI OMAP 850 processor.
It will have no effect, positive or negative, to install it on a device with a Samsung processor, except wasting 42K of space.
So why the support of HTC in this differents links (3600, s310, s710) refers to it ?? And it's fact that my sim+ is more stable now !! Not to bother you ... just to understand !!

Actually they don't really. This has also been explained before in other posts, but here goes again:
If you go to www.europe.htc.com and navigate to support for P3300, you can find faq 545, which relates to the 'P3300 SD card enhancement', and when you've found that one, the URL in the address will be: www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545
If you now go and add e.g. '&device=htcp3600' to the end of the URL and press enter, then you will get the same faq, but it will look like it's from the P3600 support, which is not really true; it's just a 'less fortunate' behaviour by the web site.
Faq 545, 'P3300 SD card enhancement', really belongs to the P3300 support area, and nowhere else.

I'm sure it's correct when you say so, but if it's caused by putting omap850_sdhc.dll in your \windows directory, then it's nothing short of a miracle.
Okay...thanks !

Thanks guys for the replies, but I guess we went a little bit off-topic.
I understand that the patch mentioned above won't work. Is there any other solution to this issue, apart from formatting it again??
unfortunately, I forgot to move my SPB Backup file from the miniSD to my PC, so I lost even that file my bad
I would like to mention again how it happened: most presumably after installing the program EPOCRATES. Can this help??
Thanks again
You are far from being the first to have a problem like this with a SD card on a Trinity, and I'm afraid there is no easy cure.
Did you try and put the card in a card reader and see if it looked OK here?
If you can read it with a card reader, then make a backup (copy) to your PC, reformat it and restore the copy before putting it back in the Trinity, and see how it looks now.

I tried that, but same strange characters are also shown on my PC using the SD adapter. there is even a 4GB eek file in the root directory of the card. everything so strange.
Guess that you will have to do a reformat if possible.
If there is something on the card that you really want to salvage before you do the reformat, then you could try to do this with a file recovery utility.

Actually the Spb backup file would be really helpful Do u recommend any program for trying to recover it??
Thanks
I'm using an old release of WinHex myself.
WinHex is not free, but a trial can be downloaded from here: http://winhex.com/winhex/index-m.html
I'm not sure what limitations there might be in the unlicensed version, but I would recommend giving it a try before looking elsewhere.
I don't have any recent experience with other recovery utilities, but there are a number of them to be found here: http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?tg=dl-20&qt=recovery&tag=srch
Great, after trying to recover files with Winhex (unsuccessfully), The device doesn't recognize the card anymore, and now it requires a format I give up.
Is there anything I should make to prevent future problems like this??
First of all, should I format it as FAT16 or FAT32?
should I format it on the device or using a card reader?
should I use a specific program for formatting or the default windows application?
Thanks again

Try this - found from the Artemis forum.
It's a preventive measures - not one that can save your already messed up SD.

If you are still looking for a recovery solution, a friend had a similar incident with the 2GB Toshiba SD card on his 818 Pro just last week, and, not counting MP3s stored on the card (which he can restore from his CD library), I managed to recover for him some 90% of the files intact using Ontrack's EasyRecovery Professional.

How to format an encrypted 16Go SDHC Card

Hi,
I'm bothered because, I don't knox how to format my encrypted 16GO micro SDHC card. I used the card for just a few months on my Blackstone device and know, I can't delete the data in the card. I can't format-it too!
I tried to use the "SDFormatter V2.0" software, but I have the same thing
Does someone can help me please?
Thank's in advance for any help.
any Idea?
Some one to help me?
Thank's
Same problem for me, have you found a solution ?

No we can't, because the encryption happens without activate the switch.
I haven't got any solution till now. I tried many way (under windows: I tried to format and to destroy the partition, but it's impossible. Under Linux, I tried to format it but I had the same result! ). It's impossible to do something.
For your information: You can only copy your data by using ActivSyn in condition that you never changed the ROM under which the encryption was happened.

I have seen in other Forum a guy who has the same problem resolve it by using Paragon Partition Manager. But the price of this application is 40$
I try Paragon Partition Manager 8.5 but I cannot delete the partition nor format the existing partition.
For information, I have this problem after flashing my Blackstone's ROM without removing the SDCard !!! and now it is in read only !!!

Does your card was encrypted? I ask you the question, because in my case, I can't format-it using camera.

I confirm that you can't delete and/or format partition. But you can recover your encrypted data with "Paragon Partition Manager Professional 8.5".

So what have done wrong?
Is there a solution to this mess?

Google 'Flash Format' (by cnetx). Download the demo, install on your pda, and format that way. Trust me, it'll work. If you like it, buy it.

Well that didn't work. Downloaded what was necessary, connected my phone to the pc. Now it's just stating that the phone has to be connected with the pc even though it is. . .
how about formatting it using a card reader? not from your plugged phone.

Well im trying to find possible ways to do it w/o having to spend money lol.
On the other hand i do have a laptop, it has a card reader but the thing is. . . is that it crashed over a year ago and won't accept the original OS system so i have to use a cracked version. Leading to a problem where i can't use the built in card reader. Which doesn't sound so fun.
If there is any other alternate ways of avoiding a card read and being able to do it with my phone would be awesome, but i can try and find a card reader in the mean time.
Thank you guys for helping. If you have more possible ways please feel free to post more.

nueStorageManager:
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/page/nueStorageManager.aspx
nueStorageManager is a control panel applet that lets you control and fine tune storage on your device. It enables you to format, defragment and scan storage on your device, as well as mount and unmount devices.
Warning: Formatting partitions will cause you to lose all device on that partition. Windows CE will prevent you from modifying operating system partitions (IMGFS, XIP) from this tool, but you can still manipulate the FAT32 storage partition with the tool.
lol nothing again.
It's ok i guess lol.
i didn't see that you edited i shall try this one out. thanx for the help again.
lol i just give up. . . until i get a reader.

You need to establish an active sync connection, but if you can't get it working try this: go to the C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\CNetX\Flash Format folder on your pc. Copy the 'F4.PPCARM.CAB' cab to your ppc and install it the normal way.
