Card Export II & wm5torage problems

[vtsakiris]

Has any one managed to use software like wm5torage or card export II with trinity? I tried both but they do not work for my device.

Doed any one know a way for them to work or another solution to use the storage card as a flash drive that works for HTC trinity?

I've the same problem and no solution. I can switch on my htc 3600 between card and active sync, but the card function doesn't work (card exportII ppc). No device under winxp????:confused:

I had same problem. Goto Start>settings>usb to PC and uncheck Enable advanced network functionality and that should fix the problem

Thanks, but it doesn't seem to have changed anything for me... still no removal drive appearing in Win XP after unchecking that option (tested again after soft reset, same result).

I rather using a usb 2.0 card reader, but when I tried WM5torage and Card Export, I remember both of them worked a couple of times, but for most of the times I tried to use them I got the same problem as you, I think Card Export didn't work or even complain, WM5torage returned some error message.

Another strange thing, when they did work, I had to use the device, i.e. press the start menu, open an application, for the transfer rate to become acceptable! really weird, if I just plug in the device and let it alone it was slow as hell to browse or do anything else.

So I decided to use one of these:

I have a USB mini SD card reader, unfortunately it doesn't seem to like 4go mini SD...

So I'm waiting to receive another reader that looks like yours... just hope it will read my cards (or are they capped to 2go?).

Anyway, I have at least one computer where I card read my card, so not a real problem... just wanted to be able to use it at work for example, and without ActiveSync that seems to corrupt the card...

Card Export II works well on my unit although after a reset it may take a little time till the Icon shows up. Also if you don't see your Mini-SD card in Windows just disconnect the USB cable, do a quick change from Card Export to Active Sync and back to Card Export then Windows will show you the MiniSd files.

Well after trying again and again, I've given up on using that kind of program...

Hopefully I've received the same usb card reader as Apoc and it work like a charm with my mini sd 4go ;)

Maybe it's not working because your using a MiniSD 4GB (if that's what you wrote)...what brand/model are you using? is it working well??

For me WISBAR LITE was the problem!!!

I had to disable wisbar. Start wm5torage. activate it. restart wisbar.

now I can use (activate/stopp/restart) wm5torage without a problem.
(haven't done a reset yet)

I have always had problems with WM5torage telling me that something is still running on the card so can’t start. I check everything in processes and nothing appears to be pointing to the card, so without uninstalling one-by-one to find the conflicting culprit, I give up.

However Card Export II works great! Never had a problem with it connecting as a removable drive except with USB 1.1. I find if I connect to a PC with USB 1.1 it disables the USB altogether until a restart.

I’m using a 2Gb card, so either you are having problems with your 4Gb, or can I presume you are not using USB 2?

Also what have you formatted your 4Gb to? Fat32? What did you use to format with? You can get software like this (http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/sd/download/sd_formatter.html) especially to format SDHC.

I can put folders from my trinity on the pc but not from the PC en the trinity.

A hint:

I just bought A S300+ and tried WM5torage, I had a classic "maybe card is in use" problem. I already had patched rom and radio rom. So I tried to remove all protections with an official tool I know: Device Security Manager PowerToy for Windows Mobile 5.0 on microsoft website

Guess what ? it worked like a charm

Usage is very easy select "Security off" in selected configuration Compare with actual active sync device and then click 'provision'

See next thread. Cannot delete this one ...

Just make sure you disabled the radio. I have some programs installed on the card (PB Weather) which are always active when the radio is on. If I disable the radio WMStorage works fine.

But you have to uncheck the extended option in the USB settings anyway.

Good luck

I used / tried both of this programs
last version of card export works great but not the previous one
WM5torage was working on different version of ROM
In the last I use, FAMAN 3.6, WM5torage is working fine.
in previous, 3.3 3.4 3.5, it wasn't. I had to do it with Card Export.
the driver used for handling memory card inside WM6 is the center of the problem
Card Export use its own driver, instead of WM5torage.
That's what I understood in some forums ...

So do some test on different version of ROM

good luck

PS : I use 4Gb Mini SDHC and I never install anything in the card to avoid any "actually in use" problems

I tried the last BETA version on WM5storage on FAMAN4.01 french WM6 rom and work like a charm

[rolfy]

I just forgot to end my post ...

I also use WM5torage 1.78 beta 2 on FAMAN 3.6, and it is working very fine

I didn't try it on FAMAN 4.01 because I didn't keep this ROM version more than 1 hour.

The big advantage of WM5torage is it's freeware
