Boot Loader & SDHC cards

[Al66]

***A bit of a warning to SDHC card users***
I've got my 6 Gb San Disk SDHC card (£35!) working a treat in Mescle's 3.01 lite rom but today I had a bit of a high blood pressure moment...

I was trying to reflash the rom and my device would not go into boot loader - just kept coming up with a white screen, didn't matter if it was boot loader from a ruu or manual via the buttons. I have now sussed this and my BP is back to normal. When you enter boot loader it looks for the SD card and obv. in boot loader mode it doesn't like the SDHC card type so just hangs! Remove the card and you can get into boot loader straight away.

So here's the tip - if you want to flash your device remove the SDHC card first.

Cheers

Thanx for the info, it has been noticed before. It's in the 6GB SDHC Thread. I had the same problem and realised it was the sdhc card. Usually it's recommended to flash roms without sd-card inserted.

dont most (if not ALL) rom cookers specifically say in their posts that in order to cook their rom, any SDHC card has to be removed first? i am sure i've read the warning in at least two of those posts.
