I am using O2 XDA IIs PPC 2003 SE.
Now when I insert my SD Card 2 GB, the OS does not recognize it.
(It was good before.)
I've tried with another 256 SD Card, same result.
Those SD Cards are working well with my Card Reader plugged into my PC.
Anyone could help me please?

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry I don't know.

However.. you've come to the wrong place if you want help.. people here seem to have an aversion to actually helping people out.. don't get me wrong, there are some very talented people that call this forum 'base', but they are understandably busy.. and the other's who hang just don't answer shit unless it suits them..

You are more likely to get the answer "read the wiki" which isn't the most helpful thing in the world. Even those of us who try others to help despite our knowledge being somewhat wanting.. just in the hopes of being seen to be at least trying, aren't deemed to be worth giving an answer to.

I suggest these two forums.

You will get help there.

Try soft resetting the device, poke the stylus in the reset hole and once the device re-boots it should see the card, you will not loose information performing a soft reset - Mike

Hi, I've also have a sort of problem like yours. I tried soft reset n it actually works. But sometimes my BA still can't read my SD. I've tried format my SD n even upgrade my ROM. It seems that the problem is in hardware. I don't know what to do anymore :(

Last night I dissambled my BA n I found out that the screws around SD card reader were loose. I've tightened them up n so far I don't have any problem with SD card. But I've still exprerienced problem with my screen keep active when my BA was pressed even though I've locked the device n power off. I don't know what to do anymore. Any suggestion?

Problem already solved.
It was because tiny plastic dirts on the SD slot.
Once I cleaned it up, it's working as before.

Thanks to you all. What a nice forum we have here.

I had similar problems with a 1GB card. Formatting it in a PC-based card reader fixed it. Remember not to select quick format.

Can I put a 4GB SD Card in the Blue Angel? Will it work?

Can I put a 4GB SD Card in the Blue Angel? Will it work?It will work if the card is *NOT* a SDHC card.

I found my 4 gig card on ebay, topram is the brand, and it works fine as it is a non-SDHC card.
