Hi there,

you may think : "not another one with MiniSD card problems !", but I bought my HTC P3600 yesterday with a Kingston 2Gb MiniSD card and it just won't see the card. I have the original, latest WM5 version and didn't try to reformat the card (because I don't have a card reader here) yet, so could that be the problem or is it hardware-related ?

Regards

you can see more info in the memory setting
for sd cards

otherwise it could be a hardware issue had it happen before
with various flash cards

and of cause it could be the phone's sd connector if no minisd cards work :S

It doesn't show anything there, it says "not installed"......couldn't it be the card that only has to be formatted ? Or do you think it is hardware-related ?

You need tio try one of 2 things
1) Try your card in another device
2) Try another card in your device

If either work OK, it points to the culprit and the solution :)

my best bet is that the card is dead
happent to a 512MB kindston i had too
1 day it just stop'd working

kinda odd too when they say that sd cards are very resilient
saw a clip where they placed a digicam on a bridge and blew it up
and the sd card still worked
and a cam fell into the sea and washed up and the sd card was still working so they could get the pictures out

but i have many kingston sd cards which work just fine

Well, formatting the card had the desired effect !

It is now found by the P3600 and I was able to install the TomTom maps :)

I'm glad it worked !!
