Question SDHC cards possible on Charmer

Hi all,

I just go my hands on a 6GB Micro SDHC Card, but my Charmer with the latest Mobile 6 Touch flow on it does not recognize it.

I also tried the HTC SDHC cab file
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=310456&page=4)
with no success.

Does anybody have a solution, or is it a HW problem?

BR,
JJ

You have to rewrite the driver. I can look into it in the middle of the next week.

Default That would really be great!

Wow, SDHC on a Charmer, that would be a "killer-app", though not really an app
Hardware manufacturers always try to force us to buy new things (together with sofware manufacturers, of course), with files and programs getting bigger and bigger and standard SD restricted to a maximum of 4GB, the charmer would soon be (well, at least in 1 -2 years) found in museums only, unless there was a way to use SDHC...

Soory buy to say, but I can only make SDHC up to 4GB working, cause this is the hareware limit and till now I wasn't able to port the driver.

Default 8GB in two partitions...

Oh, I don't think this limit would be a problem, I heard Windows Mobile can handle storage cards with more than one partition, so you could partition an 8GB SDHC card into two 4GB partitions and then have two storage cards in one...

What's really funny is that Windows Vista canNOT handle storage cards with two partitions, though one might think being the "bigger" OS it should have more abilities than Windows Mobile

Anyway, one could easily fill the two partitions with a Linux OS

Linux is great . But I have to say no your Idea doesn't work cause the reader supports only 4GB. Two partitions at 4GB in one card means 4+4=8. 8 is 4 too big cause not the partition counts but the full card.
