Memory card issue and camera

Running firmware v1.25. Everything works ok, had some previous issues with my 256mb sandisk mini SD (not playing all mp3s, couldn't access sd card) have disappeared after 1.25 upgrade.

New problem now though: I've set my camera to store pictures on the /Storage card/My documents folder. When I take a picture, I click on save and it takes 2 seconds to store the photo on the SD card. BUT, using ActiveSync and Explore option, I can't find anywere the photo taken!! Neither videos can be stored on the SD card.

When i change the destination folder to the phone memory it works just fine. Another thing, I can't create a folder on the SD card through explorer on my pc neither through file explorer on the phone.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!!

Ive had the same problem with all the firmwarez, well .325, 1.30, and now I have the 1.43.

The SD would ghost off and on all the time, very annoying, but with 1.43 its stable now, but the camera still wont save to the card.

Another bug

thanks moto!

I use a SanDisk 128Mb. On the original 1.28 EU ROM didn't have any problem but slow access. Upgraded to 1.43 (Cingular) and card access became extremely unstable and a couple of days later dissappeared permanently. Upgraded again to 3.45 and the card is still not there... :cry:

Anyone with same symptoms?

Maybe the card is dead.. Do you have a card reader that you can check the card? Or even another phone that accepts miniSD cards?

If that's the case, there are plenty of very cheap PQI 256MB or even 512MB miniSD cards on eBay that you can buy.

Is the card write protected per chance?

No it's not write protected.

There was a known problem with some mpx220 and 256MB sandisk miniSD but this has been eliminated with the release of the new ROMs.

Anyway when I updated, the issue I'm describing was entirely fixed. In addition, I've bought from ebay another 512MB PQI miniSD which by the way is faster than sandisk.

The card works like a charm on mi PC with a card reader... Even bought another card (also 128Mb) and returned next day - didn't work, but at least the phone saw it and tried to format. Thinking of returning to 1.25 to see if it is because later roms EXPECT high speed cards.

Thanks Paraklas!

All later ROMs should be backwards compatible with miniSD cards AND offer support for newer models as well. There were issues with Sandisks, like the one you and me have but all got fixed with later ROMs.

Did you try 1.25 to see if it works? My problem was with 1.25 ;)

That's precisely what I'm going to do ;) Just happens I forgot the USB cable at home, so i'll try tomorrow and tell you how the thing goes... Just hope the thing is not hardware related... No 1.28 to reinstall!! :D ;) :D

Thanks, Paraklas!

Paraklas, FYI I have just installed 1.25 on my phone... The phone won't see the MiniSD card, so I'll have to send the unit for servicing... I'll wait a couple of days to see if 1.28 appears somewhere, and if not (:cry:) I'll send it with 1.25 and see what happens...

Thanks for your comments - Cheers!
