NO! Hermes doesn't support microSDHC memory card.
are you sure?
Did anyone tried it? Or is this what you heard?
check the following registry location:
HKLM/Drivers/Builtin and see if there's an SDHC key there. If so, then your TyTN supports SDHC
my 8525 has a SDHC folder.
So does my Vario II
Mt Tytn does too. Full of keys
My 8525 has it too?
Please post successes.... one site said that you might need to partition it into 2GB partitions?
The 2GB partition issue should apply only if you format using FAT16, which is limited to 2GB partitions. If you use FAT32, you should be OK.
Will a WinXP machine with SD reader be able to read and format these SDHC cards?

I can confirm the key exists on my 8525, too; however, is this not just WM5 software support?
I can't find any 8525 literature that actually confirms the 8525 hardware can actually handle SDHC... The only thing I can find is the SanDisk "check with your manufacturer..." blah:
http://www.sandisk.com/Compatibility/Device(8437)-Cingular-8525.aspx
Confirmation would be nice to know before paying the new-tech price premium on a new card. it would also be nice to know in case there are any 8GB cards around the corner
If anyone finds a place to actually buy one of these cards, PM me the link. I'll buy it, try it on my 8525 and report back.
I've been looking off and on for a few weeks now for someplace with the 4Gb in stock with no dice yet.

The trinity uses a mini SD, not micro SD. I've still yet to see anywhere to buy a 4Gb micro SD.
i read on the internet that the 4gb sdhc cards won't be making their debut until mid may or so....
hopefully some gadget sites will have specials or what not so not all of us go wasting $60 bucks to go get one and have it fail on us
4GB-6GB MicroSD HC HTC TyTn (Hermes 100) Support
I have an HTC TyTyn (Hermes 100). Just yesterday I purchased a 4GB MicroSD HC (SanDisk) and a 6GB MicroSD HC (SanDisk) to try them out on my TyTn to see if they would work as I have been hearing it does and doesn't. I want to assure you all that both 4GB and 8GB SDHC memory worked on my device!!! So the HTC TyTn (Hermes 100) does support\work with both of these new SDHC memory sizes. I saw an 8GB SDHC but I was already over my budget but I'm assuming it should work as the other sizes worked without a problem. If someone tries out the 8GB SDHC memory please let us all know your results. I'm using the official HTC TyTn ROM WM6 update so those of you that are having issues using the new SDHC memory it may be due to the WM5 software. Get the update from the HTC site and these SDHC memory should work just fine... These SDHC cards are out there so they shouldn't be hard to find via the web.... Now I can load up all of my GPS maps!!! SWEET!!!Thanks All....
i have cingular 8525 with the tytn htc rom with micro sdhc 4 gb works great put lots of songs and movies on it
Tried to search but could not find the answer here on the forum?
I have Cingular 8525 now with Black Dymond 3.5 WM6 rom.
Does 4gb micorsd card work with new WM6 Hermes or no? If yes then can somebody plesae give recommendations on good 4gb microsd cards for Hermes.
Thanks
GG
This has been discussed quite extensively in numerous threads such as this one. The bottom line is that although the Hermes may one day support a standard 4GB microsd card, it may not support SDHC until improvements are made to WM6.
Thanks
So for now the olny option is 2GB microsd at max.
i had the 4 gb microsd preordered hasn't come it yet it is not microsdhc. ill try it whenever it gets here.

It has already been tried, no go. However this is most likely to be addressed with updated sd drivers, there is no chip dedicated to reading the sd card which is another pointer towards a driver based sd reader.
I know several members are looking into grabbing the sdhc code from the trinity but this is based in XIP (execute in place) so might be difficile to realise.
Also it is known there are sdhc drivers around but not currently in ANY of the roms we have on the hermes.
SDHC count me in
Wonder what one has to do to get that firmware upgrade?
should work with transflash 4gb micro sd., note :TRANSFLASH
Read somewhere that 4gb microsd sdhc work with black shadow rom. Can somebody confirm it?
See this thread starting around post 220 or so. It appears that the latest versions of WM6 allow the use of SDHC. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308019&page=23

I'm going to buy the same, even if I'd like to find the Kingmax class6 microsd because it has a much higher transfer speed.
Can you give some feedback on the sandisk one?
Is the speed good? Could you provide some datas?
Does someone know where can I buy the Kingmax microsd?
Many thanks!

I'll guess I'll have to stick with my 4gb for a while. (You know, the money thing???) Sigh...
Can someone advise:
-How the performance is with SDHC cards, such as a 4GB?
-Can the proper drivers be installed on a normal WM5 ROM?
There is any chance to see this card working in a Wizard Device??
There is a question of driver or a Hardware problem?? I have one mini SDHC 4GB Card.Trascend
Pls if any body has any idea!!
No way @ the moment!
SDHC Driver for WM6
http://rapidshare.com/files/54000980/sdhc-driver-x500.zip
Thx m8 but still is not working, i thik is a hardware problem ... the wizard dose not suport SDHC.
As stated in many other threads, SDHC will never come to the Wizard, the hardware does not support it, and no matter how many times people ask, it will still not work.
/end rant
Actually SDHC is not a hardware issue but rather a driver issue to understand the new format of the SDHC cards.

Im a little bit confused with MINI-SD & MINI-SDHC.
According to wat i'd read was HTC WIZARD mini-sd, expandable upto 2GB.
I want to buy a 4gb card.
Will it work with my Wizard - HT617 ???
Will an SDHC card work?? or Do i need a MINI SD - 4GB only???
If yes, Wher can i get a 4GB MINI SD(non sdhc) card??? plz post new active links.....of sellers....
Plz Xcuse for my kiddo Questions......

Have a thread in HTC Universal about a member who developped a .cab file and a ROM that read mini SdHC. Universal, as we now, is windows mobile too. I tryed the cab on my Qtek A9100 e doesn't work.
But I'm still holdind my sdhc card. Let's wait. They will find a solution.
My english is bad? Sorry.

finally someone that thinks the same as me. like i said my self too that its a driver problem. i have a dell axim x50v upgraded to wm6(cool ) and it supports SDHC cards and this device was made maybe when the prototypes of SDHC cards where being made.
I feel that right now they wont work but later we will get them to work.
4 GB Mini SD
I've been using a 4 gig card now for a few months - every 30 days or so have to reformat the card. Working though. Bought mine on Ebay.
4 Gb works very well, but SDHC, don't.

Agreed SDHC doesn't work at all, but to say 4GB works "very well" is totally misleading. Look at all the posts from people reporting problems with 4GB cards. You're extremely lucky indeed if you can find a totally reliable 4GB non-SDHC card. Even people reporting success tend to post again a couple of months later reporting corruption or total breakdown of the card.
So there is no driver out there for SDHC?
I guess that means upgrading to WM6.....

WM6 won't help either. There's rumour of support in some roms but nobody actually running an SDHC card.
I was thinking that it might be possible to produce a hardware SDHC Transflash to SD Mini adapter. The problem lies in how the card is addressed, so if an SD Mini adapter could be made with a built-in SD to SDHC interface the problem would effectively go away. There might be some incentive for the industry to produce such an interface if the price of >4GB SDHC Transflash cards drops low enough.
I guess there might be overheads in access times and power consumption though. Any thoughts?
Oooo, a month passed, but no driver for wizard appeared.
How about Wizard SDHC?
anybody can you tell which non SDHC 4gb card tu buy ?

I bought a minisd card no sdhc and it works great, it has no label of brand only minisd i look at several and they look all the same to me, probably they are made in the same place and they only change the label But if you whant a faster card try one of sandisk extreme maybe there is one without sdhc. Hope it helps
I've been using a Topram 4gb miniSD for almost a year now and have never had it fail or had to re-format it.

Hello
I wanted to ask you a question
I now I have the schap's 4.22 wwe and have a microsd from 2gb that I would replace it with one from 8gb
From your experience you know if it works at 100%
I do not want to make a purchase wrong
Aspect your answers
Please
There is no one who can help me understand if microsdhc8gb works 100% in our htc tytn
I used to have schaps rom installed and it worked like a charm (until I had to flash it back to the default O2 rom to return the whole thing - damn o2 roms are slow D
Then with the schap's works 100%?
I can safely go to the purchase of microsd

Now the order immediately !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In case you are still prevaricating I have a similar setup, Shap's 4.22 on an Orange M3100. I just received my Sandisk 8gb sdhc from http://www.mobymemory.com and installed it with no probs.
I was sent on January 2 and I should get and I hope Monday, I paid 35 gbp
It's quite cheaper here:

Working good
Just got my 8 gb sandisk. Working great on VP3G 3.62.3. I filled it up with music and movies just to make sure and it reads all of it fine. I was surprised at the transfer speed from the reader. I think it's actually slightly faster than transferring files to my USB 2.0 external hard drive.
popped mine into my tytn with BlackMajik ROM works right away
Can I use 8 Gb Micro SDHC on 838 Pro ?
Most likely if you have a fairly new WM6 ROM.
WM5 doesnt support SDHC at all, the most you can use is a 2GB card.
I have actually just ordered an 8GB SDHC micro SD card so I will let you guys know if it works.
Yes. all the way up to 32GB.
8GB SDHC works in my Jasjam, Kaiser & Jasjar
I downloaded the SDHC patch cab that is available in xda-developers & installed it on my 3 PDAs all of which have updated ROMS but it was the patch that made them work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310456&page=4
I also downloaded from Microsoft their SDHC patch for WinXP & now all my devices can read rhe 4, 6 & 8GB T-Flash cards I have.

PS Our CIO tried my 8GB T-Flash in his late model blackberry & it read the card too ! (no upgrade needed)
*sigh*
Yes, 8GB cards work fine if you are using one of the official WM6 ROMs. I'm using one and it works fine.
If you are using some other funky cooked ROM, all bets are off. (Best of luck with that though)

Anyone know if the Hermes platform (with proper ROM, etc.) will be able to notice a difference between the classes of mSDHC? For example, Class 4 or Class 6... I'd like to get a reasonably priced 8GB but on Newegg there is a 4GB Class 6 for one third the price of the 8GB Class 4. Any suggestions?

Probably not, the actual noticeable difference isnt worth the extra cost anyways, im very happy with the class 4 one ive got.
Cool, though I don't imagine I'll be trying to add a few GB's of stuff onto the card initially while it is in the phone. I've noticed that when transferring audiobooks, music, video, etc., in large chunks it takes about a third as long to throw it into my USB card reader than to do it through ActiveSync.
Know where any really good deals on the 8GB cards are? Right now Newegg only has the SanDisk and it is three times the price of a faster 4GB...
I have a Sandisk 8GB microSDHC card and it's working fine on Schap's roms.
The label says it's class 4, so I wasn't really expecting much but I am getting 8-10 MB/s writing speed when using a USB reader.

WM5 does not support SDHC which is what is needed for cards bigger than 2gb.
WM6 and WM6.1 do. Custom roms with these OS's are available here, but use at your own risk.
If you choose to flash a different rom please research first and do it properly as no one here will be responsible for your bricked phone but you. There are great tutorials available in the Hermes forums and the tools needed are here also.
Best of luck.

oh ok then
myb i shld upgrade tho
but .. it might face some lags , isnt it ?
i mean, with the extremely slow 195mhz cpu clock,
to handle a extreme iphone-level of 8gb,
sounds like stupid rite?.
i dunno i dunno. im just sayin it .
wat u thnk?
can't read SDHC even with the CAB
my dopod 818 pro still can't read my 8GB SDHC after installing the CAB file, got any other ideas?
It's best to upgrade to stock rom (Windows mobile 6.5.x) or using the latest custom ROM available.
