SD Card switching

[PalDragan]

I have a ORANGE SPV M5000 with an SD card 2GB.I'm byuing a new card with 4 GB.How do i transfer the data from the old to the new card,in order to keep all the software i have installed on the storage card ? Can i simply copy the content to the new one via computer or card reader,or do i have to "clone" it,with some kind of backup software ?

Hi there,

Ironically I did this to my o2 yesterday:
Few points to remember:

Always back up your data,explore the name of your storage file first via active syn :

1. Does your unit/rom only accept 4GB ???????, I am not familiar with your unit, however if it accepts an 8GB card then that's the way to go,they are cheap enough now.
2. Remove battery, then storage card ( In my case I did not switch off my unit to avoid a soft reset....)
3. Copy contents onto pc via card reader of old card and paste onto your new sd card after inserting it also into the card reader , ensure the file is exactly named as your existing old sd.
4. Re-insert new storage card, replace battery restart pda and the job is done
5. I use Resco Explorer in my Today Screen as an indication the new sd card is recognized.
6. Please be aware that I accept no responsibily for any of these suggestions as they only applied to my 02 pda, if in doubt just search this form or google.

Cheers
