Kaiser and WM5torage

[Calaelen313]

Hey guys,

This seems to come up a lot in just about every new ROM thread at one point or another so I just thought I'd throw it out there how I have got wm5torage to work on EVERY ROM I have tried (and I've tried just about all of them discounting the most recent ones as I haven't flashed in a while).

Basically all I have had to do to get it working is install Card Export II. You don't have to ever open it but I believe it comes with a driver update or something (don't ask me, maybe one of the cooks knows for sure) that makes the mass storage mode work on the Kaiser. Then just leave Card Export II on the device and use WM5torage as if Card Export wasn't there. Works like a charm every time, at least in my experience.

Hopefully I'm not double posting this and can help a few people out with this.

now this is good news now I will expiriment with this
my guess is that I only have to add ce2.dll and ce2ui.dll to windows folder and wm5torage should work I'll test it right away

[sherpa]

I gave this a try. I copied ce2.dll and ce2ui.dll to \windows and then installed WM5Storage. After a soft-reset, I activated the link and connected my Tilt. My PC detected it as a USB mass storage and went through the installation process, but, then, after that my PC was unbearably slow until I deactivated the link. Same thing happened on my second try. :(

I made a cab form wm5torage with the dll's from Card Export I havn't tried the cab but it's working when I cooked it into my rom as a oem pack

try it an let me know if it works

isn't working working for me... Installed - tried to start it - locked up my phone - soft reset - said it was going to install card export - 'failed to install' then 'sucessfully installed' - still no wm5 storage, it just locks up my phone - gullum rom

I just tried the cab and report the same stuff. It froze when activating wm5torage.

[gullum]

ok then it must be coocked into the rom :(

I do the samething...but has anyone tried to see if it still works after the trial period expires...the reason why I haven't tried that is because i'm always reflashing my device almost every other week and never had the trial version expire since I always re-install from scratch...

[patr!k]

c'mon guys, why are you opening the same issue? why don't you better search!? it has been already solved, we know, that WM5torage is working when CE2 is installed.. also know, that MW5torage will work, when CE2 trial is expired. as far, as i tested - CE2 NEEDS to be installed to have WM5 working - you can not just copy files into windows. it will not work (at least on kaiser)!

Hey, I apologized in the first post in the event that I was double posting a solution. I did do a search before posting it but posted for two reasons:

1. When I did search I did not find this particular solution (upon a second search I did find it but I had to read through a thread a bit before I got to it).

2. As mentioned in my first paragraph, this issue is CONSTANTLY coming back up, be it in the form of a new thread or in the form of 40+ people spamming up a perfectly good release thread with "WM5torage doesn't work, has anyone else got it to work!!!!!" making it harder to find legitimate information about a new ROM release.

I understand that the forums are getting increasingly cluttered with unnecessary threads/posts, but please refrain from "Use the search tool!" posts and thereby adding to the clutter. Yes, we all know by now that the search tool is available. No, we don't always find what we're looking for when we use it, especially when our answers are on page 43 of the thread (no, mine wasn't in this case but we've all been in that situation). If you really want to help with this issue, submit a link to the post that has the solution. If you don't have time to do that, great, send a PM to the person who opened the thread and let them know that the issue has been solved previously and they can direct people to the right thread. Otherwise, just let the thread die as it will inevitably do if it is not necessary.

Sorry again for adding to the mess.

Sorry, but I just tried that (Official HTC rom, installed WM5torage, soft-reset, installed cardexport II, soft reset), but still not working

It is working with cardExport II, so I would guess that WM5torage is not using the right dlls

Somebody mentionned that already and was telling that it must be on a cooked rom ?? Which rom would allow that ?

[myrandex]

don't know how to get it working. I spent a while trying to get it to work, and then I just gave up. I could never get it to work at all. I have CardExport working in trial mode, but I didn't want to pay for it. Its best just to move on from this unless you find a rom with it built in already...which I never have found. ROMeOS was going to try to do it once, but that project has been discontinued.
