Hey everybody,
me and my friend are thing of get the HTC 6500, has anybody got the pdf file of the user manual for this unit or could tell me we can I download one from.
Can someone please give me some feedback on this unit, because I'm a little confussion on the SD slot is it true that it has 2 slot so I could put in thoery 2 SD Card or am I wrong in thing tha. Can someone tell me what time of SD card I can use, well it reconize an SDHC card or not.
What is the latest rom that HTC has made for this pda.
Thank You for any feedback anybody can give me.
Ciao

Can't find a PDF, it definatley has 2 SD slots, and I can't see why they wouldn't be SDHC. There is only the launch rom availa ble AFAIK.
M.S
SDHC support
Yes -- two slots and both support SDHC! I'm currently using a 32GB SDHC card and an 8GB card without any problems...
No ROM available yet except the original, unfortunately.

Hey Carrot34,
you say that you are using 2 SDHC card one of 32Gb and one of 8Gb can you tell me which type of SDHC card are they SD, Mini, Micro, or CF.
Thanks

SD slots
Hi -- they're full-size SD slots (the kind which will take the latest 32GB cards). There are _some_ issues with larger high-capacity cards, which I've talked about in another Sedna thread. But even the largest cards (I'm using a 32GB one now) generally work OK.
[Sorry for the slow response -- I didn't see this message until just now.]

is there a maximum size for sd cards in xda's... im having problems with my 4gb sd... is this a common problem?
Its the speed that is the key.
Hi, I had similar probs with Magician and 1gb,2gb, 4gb cards.
Seems that certain devices can't handle SD cards with speeds more than 60X. Most high end cards are 150X.
Finally I got this Kingmax 4gb SD40X card from Dabs.com under £50 and it works in my Magician ,Universal and Himalaya. Hope this helps
PS; If you can try your card in another device at least you can check if the card is faulty.I had one faulty card .I also had a faulty device which had backlight probs and had to go back under warranty for repair !!!!

Official answer from Qtek
After i had problems with TomTom:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Had the same error {map not found} thought it was TomTom error so i bought Destinator (excellent software) but the problem was identical.
So bought a new storage card Contacted Qtek about it:
"Thank you for your E-mail. Regarding your query, please note that the SD card standard is limited to 2 GB and our devices are fully compliant to the standard. Cards with the capacity greater than 2 GB are not compliant to the standard and we cannot guarantee that they will function correctly. As to transferring speed, we recommend not using ultra speed SD cards with the speed more than 64x as they either will not work or may pose problems later. Also we would like to inform you that some SD cards need to be formatted using any PC / Laptop (supporting SD cards) before using with our devices.".
So put in a 45x speed 2GB SD card and still the same problems.
Contacted Microsoft and they gave me a hint:

How about XDA II? I heard it is only support 512Mb
Can anyone tried SD card bigger than 512Mb?
i think it depends on the OS
Hi guys
don't quote me on this but i think the supported size by enlarge depends on the version of ppc/wm you are running...form what i read people with wm5 on their himalayas were happily running 4 gig cards (i think someone may have evn been using an 8gig) but 2003 i think only really likes up to 2 gig.
if someone can confirm this it would be appreciated as i'm looking to get a new card for mine...i'm stuck down in 2k3 so i have full backpack functionality but i'm hoping i can get a 4gig working in there
if anyone is using the 2k3 and has a 4gig working all fine and dandy please let me know which rom ver you are using and which card you are using so i at least have some idea what is possible.

Hi, Flakey software from TomTom. I have XDA IIs with 1GB and 4GB SD cards. TomTom v6, Western Europe maps, two voices, GB postcodes and satellite images sneaks into 1GB card.
TomTom wouldn't install to 4GB card, using 1GB SD card and TomTom Home software product I performed a backup. Then restored backup to 4GB card. Yes TomTom and maps work with the 4GB SD card.
However, when attempting TomTom Home back up from 4GB card software message says "No data to backup". Thats what I call flakey software and where are software updates for v6.01?

TomTom Navigator 6 - TomTom - Home software product doesn't like the 4GB SD memory card very much. Then again TomTom navigator 6 doesn't like the 2GB SD micro memory card either oh what fun
2GB cards DO WORK with Xda IIs and XDA II mini
The issue posted on the Microsoft Site isn't really related to the size of the SD card inserted - here's the updated URL by the way: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/277742
I've found that my XDAIIs does support a 2GB card - the main problem that I had was formatting it. The trick is that the card has to be formatted as 2GB (or max capacity) BEFORE inserted into the device, otherwise problems will occur. When I formtted the 2GB SD card in my device, it indicated that the card was a 2GB card, but 1GB of the sectors on the SD card were marked as bad (just run a DOS chkdsk command on the card following such an operation on the PC). To format the card properly, you'll need a SD card reader/writer that copes with cards > 1GB. I've also got a SD card reader in my Fujitsu latop (built in), but it only supports up to 1GB. Most of the latest USB multi-format card readers should work with the large capacity. So, to get it to work:
1) Ensure that you have a SD card reader on the PC that supports >1GB capacity
2) Format the card on the PC in the reader/writer
3) Validate that the format was successful by running the DOS chkdsk command on the SD Card - ensure there are no bad sectors
4) Then insert the SD Card in your PPC
I know for a FACT that a 2GB card works in both an XDA IIs card, and an Xda II mini device, as I've had both working.

To the forum,
Lately I've been having an intermittent problem where Windows Media Player Mobile doesn't "see" the storage card anymore [where the songs are stored]. All other apps on the card run fine. Pocket Mechanic Pro v2.50.199 shows no problem with card. A friend stuck in his storage card & media Player "saw" the card??? I reformatted the SD card using Pocket Mechanic Pro and checked that Media Player could see the card. I have a /My Documents folder on Sd card.
Three weeks later, the same problem is occuring, Media Player can't see the storage card. If I remove the SD Card and reinsert it, a media player dialog box comes saying a SD card was inserted, do you want to search the card for music and video. I say yes and it finds the 45 songs but hangs in trying to build a library of them. It finally returns with no songs and unable to see the SD card.
The SD Card is a 1GB SanDisk micro SD card about 8 months old.
Any thoughts out there?

Another question for the group: Pocket Mechnic Pro (PMP) has the ability to set the FAT and Cluster size when formatting the storage card. Could it be I have the wrong FAT-cluster combination? PMP supports formating a fat of FAT12, FAT16 & FAT32 and cluster sizes from 1 sector, 512B up to 128 sectors, 64K.
Any recommendation on FAT/Cluster combination to use for my SanDisk 1GB micro SD Card?
Thanks Craig
hi all
i haven't use my xda2 for long time, and recent wm6 bring my interest back on.
The stoneage sd card i'm using is 256m, and all in suddent i found a tool which says support the SDHC with XDAII. and can someone have SDHC plz try this tool on the device. The tool is harmless I swear, and only designed for the SDHC, NORMAL SD CARD WILL DISPPEAR from the device after installation as I tried on my 256 card, after uninstallation and it works again.
Please post reply if it works(with your device) and i'm gonna grab a SDHC for my XDAII. Thank you very much in advance!
Please always run virus check after download for your own safety.
I have a 6gb MicroSD card, and it appears to be not working. Its a Sandisk model.
I'm using the Schaps 4.00 ROM, which supports SDHC. The trouble is, its not detecting the card. Although, when I put the card in when the camera app is open it does say that I've installed a storage card and do I want to use it. If I click yes, it goes ahead and uses the main memory anyway and not the card.
Any ideas on how I can test it? Its from eBay so returns are a last resort.
T-Mobile MDA Vario 2 btw .
Thanks,
Gav
Doesn't SCHAPS 4.00 only supports SD cards up to 4GB?
I've also got the 6Gb micro SD from Sandisk (SDHC) and it works fine with Schaps 4.00 final - also worked ok with Schaps 3.60. I got mine new from expansys and it worked fine out of the box - but after testing it I did do a full format at FAT32. Not had any problems with this.
Only thing I can think is to try it in someone elses phone and/or get hold of a Micro SD card reader and re-format (mine is micro SD to usb and also works as a memory stick).
Have a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331463 - it may point you in the right direction.

I've got a bit of a problem with the SD Flash Method.
OK, I'm trying to flash a Raphael ROM, I name the .NBH file RAPHIMG.NBH and put it on the SD card (a standard microSD 2GB Kingston, formated with StorageTools as FAT32 512 bytes sector (/fs:FAT32/a:512))I put the RAPHIMG.NBH on the SD card useing a card reader and go in Bootloader, and than it sais "No Image Found!".
The device is T7272.
Thanks in advance.
can you try to name it RAPHIMG.nbh and give a try
Tried that too, but no change.
I hate to say it; Sandisks never disappoint you
I don't think the problem is in the card, I used the same card (but full with files) to flash ROMs on my Hermes, without problems, and my Sandisc is no longer operational (can't be read).
And i think like taiseer999 that it is your kingston card,or wrong format.....format it with windows please and give the card no name,maybey that will work.
I flash with a sandisc 8gb and it works ok
I first tried using the card already formated, even without deleting files from it, no reformating after useing it to format my Hermes. It has no name. My microSDHC card Kingston Class 4 can't flash ROM too.
Are you sure that the RAPHIMG.nbh file is, with the right CAPITALS, in the root of your card?
If you are, AND you are sure the formatting of the card is correct, try another card.
( I used a Kingston 8GB class 4 yesterday, and a SanDisk 8GB Class 6 two days before, both worked out.)
((and the 512MB SanDisk I have, collecting dust, worked good before.))
(I should update my sig, i'm on ROMeOS 1.40 WWE now)
I think it has been mentioned that the Kingston cards suck. I've always used my old 512mb sandisk microSD to flash and it has never disappointed me. To this day, I've never used my Kingston 4gb.

I used the same card to flash a slashscreen to my friend's Hermes, and it worked, I just removed the RAPHIMG.nbh, and put the HERMIMG.nbh, and I used the same card to flash my old Hermes few days ago (when I sold it out), when it was full of files, and with my RAPHIMG.nbh in it, and worked. I'm sure the leters are correct, checked it a few times, and I used ROMeOS 1.40 and the .nbh file is already named. I think the problem is elswhere, not in the card.
Finally someone with the exact same problem as me.
I also own a Hermes and my card flashes just fine on that device, but on the Raphael i always get a no go.
I doesn't matter how i format the card, i even tried different brands and different types e.g. Ultra II - SDHC - non SDHC
I tried every possible combination of case sensitive letters.
I'm lucky that i don't have any problems flashing the regular way, but i would really like to flash using my card, because i also use computers which do not have Active Sync installed on it.
I hope that someone can solve this issue because i'm still stuck here. If u need help or testing PM me or reply in this thread.
SO whats the final verdict here? I cannot flash becasue of my sd card?
I just flashed yesterday with my SD card. Not sure the brand of the microSD as my phone isn't right next to me.
so pissed I have an Adata 8 gig class 6 and I cannot flash through my card it won't recognize my raphimg.nbh ... Its driving me looney. Wish something could be done i don't want to get a new card.
Did all of you format your card using FAT32?
Hmm. Could it be that the rom flash only works with microsd cards and not microSDHC cards?
I have the sandisk 8gb sdhc class 6 and that works great,flasht already 20-25 times with it. so sdhc no problems

Successful
I've had no problem. I'm using a 256mb Sandisk formatted Fat32. Image name is RAPHIMG.nbh
Mine is microSD and is FAT32 formated, but it's not working. My other card is microSDHC and is also FAT32 formated, but it's not working too.
I've tried to install a few programs on my 4 gig microsdhc card. For example iGo8 starts only a few times, then crashes. When I explored my card there were 2 folders named iGo8. I formatted the card and installed a newer version of iGo8, and same thing happened: after a few starts(working perfectly) it crashes.
The exact same iGo8 works fine with 1GB microsd.
I've tried also installing M2DC, the effect was slowing down the device, so i had to uninstall. The same with top bar customizing cabs.
PLS HELP!
I've found the solution for the nonworking card:
Hard SPL the device
Installed RuRo v.1.1 ROM
Now it's working fine!

I have the 4gb micro sdhc as well. I was using it in a Nokia e71 but when I purchased the motorola backflip it didn't work. It was during this time that I noticed that I didn't have the average micro sd card. Upon recognizing this, I bought the san disk micro card reader for hc but when I insert the card into the reader using my laptop (windows 7), it freezes when I click on the reader. I have not been successful with trying to retrieve the data other than putting the card back into the nokia e71. If I could find a solution with just getting the card to read on the computer, I can try reformatting the card. Pease Help if you know of a solution.
It is a timing problem on the interface level
Hi,
when I bought my fist 3G, I've tried it with a 8GB µSD Card and I've seen the symptoms described by other user (freeze problem, very very slow motion, ...). Without µSD card, it was working perfectly.
I was sure this µSD card was working fine in a HTC HD, so I tried a slower µSD card and it was working again. But because I was unhappy with the fact that I had to slow down the 3G (by using a slower card) to get it working, I've tried to find other 3G to try my SD card... and finally, I tried it in 11 HTC 3G (that was "working" according to their owner) and on 3 of them, the SD card did not work!
So, I've exchanged my 3G and with the new one, my SD card is working perfectly.
Conclusion:
During the electronic design of the HTC 3G, the µSD interface timings were borderline. So, if you are lucky, your model supports fast µSD card, if you are not, you have to buy a slower µSD card or try to exchange your HTC 3G. Anyway, it is not a "critical" problem because it has a simple solution... But for sure, everybody prefers to be lucky
Good luck
solution for your SD card
format your 4GB SD card in FAT32, it should work I think _ ^ let me know!
I think you should fix it by these steps:
1. Replace your sdcard by another one and see if it works well or not
2. If the new one works well, then you need to change your card
3. If the same thing happens, then try to change your application or install a higher version of it

2. problem solved
what that about can anyone explain?
I have been looking around and I can't find what SD Cards are compatible with the Atrix.
I have seen something about a SDHC Card, but I not sure if it is compatible with the device.
Any help would be appreciated.
You can use any MicroSD / MicroSDHC memory card. NOT SD / SDHC card.
SD / SDHC are larger and physicaly don't fit.
Thank you for the answer. I did mean MicroSD. I just never heard of MicroSDHC.
