just bought my universal :) some questions !

[cudo]

hi, i bought my universal off ebay "brand new" for 258 GBP including postage :) which i reckon is a good price.

i have been using wizard so far and today i changed it for universal..the pocket pc is a real beauty..i really like it. i noticed two things which worriy me. the 1st one is : when i try to turn off the device it goes only to sleep mode but donst switch off. in wizard when i pressed turn off button it basicly turned off the device. is it normal in universal to make it sleep ? how can i really turn off my device. and the other thing is my universal dosnt detect SD card. i have got two of them one which came with my universal and the other one is the one i was using with my wizard. how can i make my universal detect them ??? (512mb and 2GB)

cheers, cudo

hey ! yeah ihave been researching a bit and i can tell with great confidence that universal dosent shut down, many pocketpc's dont.Some like your wizard are an exception. even i have a universal.
Regarding not detecting SD Card it seems odd, is it not appearing in explorer at all ? cause i've never had that problem

[cudo]

yes excatly it just dosnt appear in explorer.I will try to format it latter on and so how it is. is it normal I haven't got msn on my mda pro?

[damac]

Hmm. this might sound like a dumb question but r u sure u're inserting it the right way ?? lol..

[cudo]

hehe yeah i think so :) and what about the MSN ...have u had it pre-installed on you universal ?

[Lordsmiff]

I'd be a little bit worried about it not detecting any SD cards and test it ASAP as I've not had any problems using several different ones - here's hoping it is not a hardware fault...

As far as MSN is concerned, it depends on the ROM you are using - they have different things installed and I've noticed one or two didn't include it.

Either way, using the instructions and vast wealth of knowledge on this forum, you should be able to find one that you like :)

all sorted at least for the moment...i am using mini sd card with adapter and after i locked it and instrted the card once again my universal detected it :)

can u tell me how to "activate" real VGA ? or give a thread on that ?

cheers, cudo

[cudo]

after a while the car is not detected again i have to take it out and put it back. thiss happens when usinng mini sd with adapter after inserting sd card everything seems to be ok....for now;;)
