2gb Micro sd - $19, 4gb Micro sd - $39 (Save $10 via google checkout) - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories

I found a 2gb Micro sd for $19
http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4152649
And the 4gb Micro sd for $39 (Dont know whether it works with the 8525)
http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4159987
They are sold out but you can do a order and once its available, they ship it to you..
I ordered the 2gb using google checkout for $9.99 plus shipping and also the 4gb using google check for $30 plus shipping.

They say that it will b available in the nex 2 weeks time!!I wonder if they sold atleast one such coby 2GB microSD card cos I have been scanning all da deals for a 2GB microSD for quite some time now!!

do we know definately one way or the other whether the Hermes supports a 4GB microSD card?

Here is your answer from HTC Europe at the link below, it is a thumbs up!
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=29

Brilliant - thanks for the info. Soon I can have my maps of UK + France AND my music

But it's sure that will work?
From samewhere, I've read that base for 4gb is different from 2 gbm should be just a little bit more big.

They have put the wrong card type on their site but the info still stands, ring the helpline and they will confirm it.

Don't be excited by HTC FAQ! The answers are common for all the models. I bet that answer was written way before TyTN out, or even before SD 2.0 specs.
Did you ever see a TyTN with WM2003SE? So why don't you ask yourself why it is mentioned in the answer for TyTN then...

If it's not a SHDC card it should work... And I do believ it's quite unlikely we will see soon SDHC micro SD cards or phones (They are more targeted at cameras)
So all in all I think it will work. Anyway given the price I'll buy one just to try

2+GB cards
Hi I have asked the HTC support and here is their answer:
Hi,
I would like to know the maximum card size it will handle. I have found
this information on the HTC website:
*************
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=29
Support: HTC TyTN
What is the maximum SD card size compatible with my device?
For Win CE 2003 =>General for SDIO is 1GB.
For WM 5.0 => SD Card is 4GB and Mini-SD is 12GB
****************
But is it a strange answer, most probably not written about this device.
The TyTN does not have Mini-SD but micro-SD AND it never had WinCE 2003.
So what is the maximum card capacity it can handle? Thanks.
Another (quick) question is if there is a difference between TyTN and Hermes. Aren't they the same?
Thanks for your answers.

Dear Customer,
I will attempt to answer each of your questions in turn:
Memory Card Capacity
There is a typo on our website which lists the maximum storage card size as 12gb. This is incorrect. The maximum memory our devices can hold is 2gb. The devices do not support the SDHC formatting measure, and as such, larger cards are not compatible.
TyTN vs. Hermes
These devices are identical. The Hermes is the pre-release name for the TyTN. There are no differences between the two.
Thank you for your enquiry, Should you have any other problem, please do not hesitate to call us. Your Local number can be found at http://www.europe.htc.com/support/csbyphone.html
Best regards,
James-Lee Breen

I hope it will help others, too.

But yet there are guys using 4Gb mini cards in their Trinitys, I believe it was...
Once again proving that the help from the manufacturer is worthless.
Not for nothing, but I went through this with quite a few Motorola phones... and each time they told me the newer, higher capacity card wouldn't work. And, in all but one instance were they right.
I mean, if the 4Gb card hasn't even been released, how would they know whether or not it works? More likely that should say "The maximum memory we have tested our devices to hold is 2Gb"

Anyone know if this is a good card?
Does anyone know how much extra it is to ship to Canada?
EDIT: I just called, and shipping is going to be about $30 US...what a deal breaker...Damn it. It's because they use UPS and they charge like $20+ brokerage fee.

I ordered one.
If it actually ships... I'll post up my results when I get it (I've had 2 backorders for teh 4Gb micro card fall through up till now).

Specification of SD cards allows max 2GB(doesnt matter if SD, miniSD, microSD), but fortunately dont know how it can somehow fake fs and os to access 4GB - maybe thru operating system i really dont know but it works. Best for answer to this Quest. could be mammaich igues. At least I hope it will be SD not SDHC. but let us know

I've got a 4Gb SD card I bought about a year ago... says nothing about the "HC" on the card or in the literature, and it worked fine with the devices I needed it to work with... devices whose manufacturers told me it wouldn't work with.
The way I look at it, if it doesn't work in the Hermes, either it will eventually, or the next phone I get it'll work in.

wait and see
I think it all comes down to just waiting until someone sticks one in the Hermes.
And if it doesn't work... maybe there be a hack to make it work.
what I want to see if this doesn't work is for them to come out with a normal (non SHDC) format 4gb (or larger) card.
4gb ... hell I want 12gb

That is true. However, a proper test would be to actually transfer 4gb to the card. Then back and forth to the pc.

Yes I've seen it in the past too, pluggin a larger then specified memory card into devices and it sees the ram space, just can not access it.
Thats what updated roms and patches are for ... and I think this is the right site for this ... just gotta wait and see.
It feels like a year since I've seen 4gb flashmem has been advertised ... and ETA on these?

So, can anyone confirm or deny these work?

2gb SD from A-data and Expansys: compatible? Any good?

Has anyone tried the 2gb SD cards from A-data or the ones from Expansys? I would like to know if they're compatible with the qtek 9090.
They're supposed to be high-speed but I guess that won't make much difference if the device doesn't support this. Doesn't matter, I just want to know if it'll work or not.
Also, does anyone have any experience with the reliability of these cards? They don't explode after two and a half read/write operations or anything?

there is a 4GB card available as well http://cgi.ebay.com/New-150X-AData-...yZ103409QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Just wondering if any of you had used a Kingston 64mb card. It seems that it only works whenever it wants in my BA, but works just fine when i use it with a readon on my PC. Just trying to figure out if it's the phone or it's time to get a new card.

In theory you should be able to use any size of card. The card itself handes the physical addressing, so things like the 137 GB limits of IDE should be a thing of the past. If the device has an issue with it, it's because the device is buggy.

8525 only recognizing 1gb on 2gb MicroSD

I've searched for this topic and have only found pricing and best performance topics.
There seems to be many people successfully using the 2gb card. What can I do? I've tried reformating with programs like Pocket Mechanic and using the card reader. I've tried fat16 and fat32 using different cluster sizes.
The card works perfect, no recognizing problems, reads and writes fine but it only recognizes 1gb. Am I doing something wrong?
This is REALLY frustrating, will upgrading the rom to 2.06 fix this AT ALL? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP

Did you buy it off of eBay?
If you did you need to make sure that it's a "real" Sandisk 2gb (search eBay for info). If it is, you might have lost the format and that is not easy to re-format unless you get the proper software tools. You will need to search the net for a fix. On the other hand you might have an expensive "1gb" card (hope not).
Good Luck!
I also bought a Sandisk 2GB from Ebay but it works perfectly fine. You probably need to format it.
when you format it on your pc ( I recommend you do this) make sure to format with fat32 and ALWAYS give the volume a name (something like "sd card") I had the same problem on my TyTN an using a volume name resolved it. Not sure why this works but it does.
Hi, all you need to do is search for a program call HP USB Disk Storage format tool. It will help you format any mem card. if you have a realy 2gb card it will formart it.
yeah, there has been a problem with fake cards being sold on ebay..
Yes
I agree with JamesHolden
I highly recommend you dont buy Sandisk cards off ebay especially the Ultra ones, a huge amount of them are fake. Just dont want u guys to get scammed. Problem is alot of them do not work with the 8525 in some way or another.

Is this microSDHC / 8 GB tested?

Hello, i am looking for a card, will this work
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820171169
Also has anyone tested an 8GB SDHC? like this?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820178151
I am not sure if this are micro are not. When i go to newegg, MicroSD and SDHC are different categories. Thanks for any help.
UllSang,
The links you posted are for Secure Digital (SD) card sizes. The Hermes uses microSD cards. These are much smaller physically.
Both SD and microSD have the high capacity version (SDHC and microSDHC).
MicroSDHC cards work on the Hermes only with the latest cooked versions of WM6.
The second one is a standard 8GB SD card, afaik there isnt an 8GB MicroSDHC just yet.
We know 4GB microSDHC definatly works (you need a recent version of WM6).
you do realize those are sd cards right?
oooppss. . .sorry.. didnt realize sombebody has made the correct point.
hey mrvanx sir. you might want to fix the link on your ROM: part of your signature.. (or is that just a teaser? )
Hmm. I had a feeling that it was not microSD. Good think i asked before i bought one. So can anyone point me in the direction of a 4GB microSDHC? Thanks a bunch.

What do you mean a VGA pda phone? I also just bought my Hermes therefore i would rather not spend a lot of cash on a new phone.
Man those 4 GB SDHC cards are soo expensive. i can get a few 4 2GB for the price of one of those.

SanDisk today announced that it is has begun sampling 6 and 8 gigabyte (GB) microSD High Capacity (microSDHC) flash memory cards to major phone manufacturers and mobile network operators (MNOs) for testing and evaluation. The new cards are ideal for the growing number of feature-rich multimedia handsets that bring together phones, music players, hand-held computers, digital cameras and more. An 8GB microSDHC card can store more than 2,000 digital songs, or more than 5,000 high-resolution pictures, or up to 5 hours of high-quality MPEG 4 video2.
Retail release of the cards and availability to phone manufacturers and network operators are planned for later in 2007.

Will LVSW 3.30.2.1 version support 4GBMicroSDHC cards? That's what I'm using.
Check your build # and read!! This HAS been asked many times before. Hint-- There are other threads concerning 4gb microsdhc.

8GB Micro SD

Ok, so from my research, the 8GB Micro SD is not yet widely available or even on the shelves (correct me if I wrong). But, according to the various sites I've looked at these size cards are well on there way to being released.
I know the new standard of SDHC SD card are available in 8GB and possibly above, but I have now got a Hermes, so wanted to try going higher in Micro SD. Presently I use both a 2GB and a 4GB Micro SD, depending on what I'm needing to store.
Size wise 4GB it great as options for storage are vast.
But I wanted to see it there was any further news as to the new 8GB or higher that I'd read somewhere?
Having looked on line I could only find the following:
6GB Micro SD
==========
Pre-ordering only?
1: http://www.mymemory.co.uk/memory/SanDisk/6GB/Micro/SDHC/Card
= SanDisk 6GB Micro SDHC Card £69.99
8GB Micro SD
==========
Pre-ordering only?
2: http://www.mymemory.co.uk/memory/SanDisk/8GB/Micro/SDHC/Cardhttp://www.mymemory.co.uk/memory/SanDisk/6GB/Micro/SDHC/Card
= SanDisk 8GB Micro SDHC Card £99.99
Since upgrading the Hermes ROM on my phone to WM6 which was purely to allow it to use the 4GB Micro SD I had bought (I swear by SanDisk as have NEVER had a problem with them in over 5 years of assorted SD cards)
Am going to keep looking over the next few weeks and would be interested in any feedback if any others have found any news about higher capacity versions.
I have no idea if WM6 will be able to read higher than 4GB but my guess would be a resounding YES! on the grounds of what I have a feeling is WM6 full? SDHC support. whereas WM5 on the Orange version of the Hermes 'SPV M3100' had only partial support and can only recognize 2GB sized Cards.
N_C
PS: if this post is in the wrong place or out of date can a mod sort it out and remove or move it. Many thanks. Just wanted to share my interest and findings on these Micro beasties thats all.
You accidentally posted the 6GB page, if you change the "6" to "8" in the URL you'll get what you meant for the second post.
Wow thanks for those links can't wait to get my hands on 8GB of freakin memory! I'm very impressed with MicroSDHC and am so glad the Hermes can take the always (albeit gradual) increasing card capacities, without new hardware needed.
Take that, iPhone! (don't worry, i love you too)

The six (6) GB link was intentional bud. I have researched "above and beyond" the 4GB size. Happened to find the 6GB link on same site so added it as I didn't know if like myself others were also unaware of this specification.
Cheers anyway.
You missed his point, your 8gig link is incorrect, it links to the 6gig ad.
Wow, 8G! Wish I had known that before splashing out on an 8G Zen MP3 player.
Thanks for the spot!

The max size card your device supports is 2GB. It will not support HC (High Capacity) memory cards. Please see our recommended product below:

Teorically an microsd reader could be support the HD format through a firmware update...

When a representative from Orange looked into this on my behalf, he also was told me that HTC was only recommending that the Hermes be used with 2GB Micro SD cards, as that was the limit they (HTC) would guarantee.
When I first tested cards out prior to a firmware update to WM6, the above was indeed true.
However, my Hermes now runs WM6 and uses a 4GB SDHC Micro SD Card on a daily basis without ever having a problem.
I have no idea if this will be true of higher spec cards such as the 6GB or the 8GB or even anything higher, but I feel confident that it will. But that is just my opinion as until tried and tested its down to guesswork whether or not other card sizes will be recognized.
PS: you asked what is the difference between micro SDHD and micro SDHC?
The answer is that I have NEVER heard of Micro SDHD. To me that is a High Definition tag and not one that refers to any card type.
I've only ever known SDHC.
Even Google comes back with: "Did you mean SDHC" Maybe others know of this type of card?

You could walk into a verizon store anytime and pick up a card, if you wanted. Other people have been able to order 4gb cards-- you could, also. READ!!!
Transcend 4GB SD with Exec loses data randomly --please help.
Hello there,
I read you people are using 4GB SD without any problems, you might solve my problem.
I am using one on my Exec with WM6,(ROM 2.02.02,Radio 1.15, Protocol 42.51.P8, no ext rom) and facing a weird problem.The card loses the data for no apparent reason.The folder viz. My document has just been emptied and I lost my all ebooks--150 MB.
The file explorer shows the card contains 776 Mb data while the 'Resco explorer' shows 1007 Mb,in setting-memory-storage card it shows 1007 Mb,but it actually has only 776 Mb data, so I have lost 150 Mb data permanently and 300 Mb storage space on card!
This is the THIRD time it has happened and on previous occasions I had the card replaced.I am fed up with this problem,is it the card itself or the Exec or the WM6 or the ROM which is causing this problem?
Is there any way to retrieve the data and the memory lost from the card, for I think it is there and it just hidden somewhere...I hope.
I am not a techie,(medical doctor--using Exec more as a PDA than a communicator)hence the lengthy description ,thanks in advance,sorry for the intrusion.
bye.
sorry for the hastles your having
I wish I could help you further but apart from what I have read relating to the Hermes I can't.
I would hazard a guess and say that it sounds more like the Operating System / ROM which perhaps is not handling the card properly.
Best if you put up a new post on the main board and ask for help.
I hope you get it sorted as I know from my own problems similar to your missing card data how really annoying this problem is. I do know that I have had two SD card made by transcend. I used them for 6 months without a hitch. I put movies and files on them both for University and work use and used them in my previous phone which was an English version of the Prophet (Orange SPV M600)
Point is that in my own experience, Transcend are indeed a reliable brand or storage card. So it doesn't sound like a card problem in my opinion. Perhaps you may new to look at updating the ROM? I have no knowledge of your phone model "Exec" so can't help. But as I said best if you ask for help on the board. Maybe on various boards if you've had no luck already. Someone may have previously owned an Exec and might be able to shed some light on this problem.
Kalya-- You need to post your problem on the Universal forums, not the Hermes. There, hopefully, you will get the help you need. Different models react differently to various things. May you find your solutions...

From what I've been told, Sandisk made a deal with Verizon so they are the only approved suppliers in the US for one year. You can buy the 4GB miro SDHC card from them or any Verizon distributor (even Circuit City). However, they are more expensive than Amazon...

Hi OlSarge,
www.blt.com. The warehouse shows inventory in realtime. Looks like they had 125 on order and got in 50 which leaves a back order of 75.
Thank you Alylea. I just ordered one from them too.
Nice, I'm thinking of getting a 6GB one too, the 8GB is a bit too pricey for my liking (Approx $140).
Just out of interest, seeing as they are based on the new SDHC format (FAT32, not FAT16) - will they work with the Hermes okay?

Hi Gav,
All indications are that they should work fine as long as you are running WM6 BUT my I recll seing somewhere on this forum that not all ROMS are set up to work with SDHC.
BTW; my sources tell me that the 8GB won't be in mass production until very late '06 or possibly even early '07.

As for the 8GB, 'MyMemory' a reputable UK firm have the 8GB SanDisk model on 'pre-order' - so they must have wind of a release date.

this rom might not have the sdhc drivers so bet bet if neeeded to use the 6gb card is to update to a newer rom

Hi Cypher38,
I just looked at the listing for Schap's 3.54b and it says that there is support for SDHC so it should work.
got my card working by using tnt 2 rom
I wish there was a cheapy MP3 player ($40ish) that would take this memory format. Anyone know of any? I've googled for 3 hours looking for one before asking you guys.
I just order from the same place. They said there are 40 in stock. I can't wait to get it
you could use some cheap mp3 player, but i really like my cowon D2 (2gb/4gb) + SD card yes it does support SDHC with latest firmware
its not a simple mp3 player its a PMP i just got my sis 8gb SDHC card and it works perfectly from newegg, can you imagine the 16gb card? and so on.... man thats crazy for a touch screen pmp heh you can get both the mp3 player and the sd card from newegg. I just wish someone could cook some new diff firmware for that thing would that be sweet or what.
Anyway back to 6gb, i ordered mine and i used the free shipping at amazon and it said it would be only 4 days \o/ so that makes up for the 6 bucks that you would pay for the 3-5 or so and still have it for about the same days heh.
im sure its based on location though.
oh ill try this microSD with adaptor in my mp3 player and see
i really wish though that they would not use microSD but regular SD cards, cause they are soo much cheaper then the micro or mini, but i think cell phone manufactures made it standard almost for the micro
mostly not for the pocketPC/PDA's but for the slim phones :/

Those who kill functionality, power and gaming at the expense of style?
do you know if that work in tytn
Hi
Thank you for all information’s you provide here
Any one knows or already tests Micro SDHC 4 GB or Micro SDHC 6 GB On TyTn with OFFICIAL HTC WM6 Upgrade!
I call HTC America and the person keep answering that TyTn NOT support more than 2 GB
I am confused! I read in more than on forum that tytn with official WM6 support 4 GB!
Whey HTC keep telling the opposite
Thank You
6gb sdhc card
Hey I here you guys got the 6gb sdhc card... has anyone tried it on the sprint mogul 6800 yet???
i personally do not know about official mobile 6 supporting sdhc... but as far as cooked ones go i hear that most of them do, and if not you can always go to a diff one right? that does
dont bother with calling for official support unless its written on the box they wont say jack, even if the upgrade does support they will not, unless you get lucky and get someone who knows what there talking about, and even then they will cover there asses in some form or fashion.
got it today!
http://www.amazon.com/MicroSDHC-Ada...2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1191473928&sr=8-1
if you order that one for $78 it comes with a adaptor to SDHC and also a SDHC to USB, which is nice since my lame multi card reader doesnt seem to read past 4gb?
i put it in, it did not see the card right away after soft reboot... it picked it up using the rom in my sig
also i used the free shipping that supposed to come in 5-9 days and it came in 3 days
