Works an absolute chuffing treat on a WM5 iMate SP5. A stunning piece of software, a donation is on the way.

Why on earth wasn't something this useful incorporated into WM5 itself?

Great! Awesome! Brilliant!

Ok first time it gave me an error - so I reset my device twice. then activated BEFORE connecting to the computer - and voila it works perfectly. GREAT WORK.

I'm on a ppc-6700

Dear Ingvarr,

It is great work ! I can use it with my O2 Atom (chinese version) with Win XP computer. But I can't connect my Atom to my office computer which is using Win 98SE (Chinese version). My office computer can find the device as Window Mobile device but need to install the driver to install. I have asked O2 company but they can't offer any driver for Win98SE. Pls check what else I can do to connect my Atom to Win 98SE system ? Do you have any drivers for such connection. I am now using version 1.30. Should I upgrade to 1.45 ?

Best Regards,

Destam

You dont have to do anything "special" on PPC side... It either works or not ;)

Can you try it with Windows XP host? That way I will at least know is the culpit the host OS or HTC Apache mobile platform.

Hehe, agree. It would, if it was up to me :P

Actually, MS did pretty big job in preparing the WM5 OS for support for extensible USB protocols, and the even *started* to do an actual driver for Mass Storage - but looks like they just left it in unfinished/untested state (very unfinished I must say) and they didnt wrote an application to actually activate/use it. They "left it to hardware devevelopers to finish", and, of course, hardware devs have a lot of more important stuff to do instead of finishing unfinished software piece.

So you may say I've just finished the job ;) Threw in couple of things to make it faster, too, though ;)

Uploaded 1.46

Restored back functionality of saving previous ActiveSync driver (ie returning back to "Serial", if you use it). Shouldnt cause probs this time.

And it doesn't work on my E-TEN M600 (Windows Mobile 5.01, 1GB Transcend, Windows XP SP2, on SP1 doesn't work too).

It always writes "USB Mass Storage found" and after then "your new hardware might not work properly".

Please help. Thanks!

Have 1.3x worked for you? Also, try not to activate it while attached. Try to disconnect cable, activate it, and then connect cable.

Found New Hardware

"Windows Mobile Device"

"USB Mass Storage Device"

"A problem occured during hardware installation.

Your new hardware might not work properly.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Dunno what the case then... I know some people used old versions with M600 successfully.

Maybe try to uncheck "removable class", dunno if it can help, but worth trying.

I had "A problem occured during hardware installation. Your new hardware might not work properly." with Softick CardExport, never with wm5torage. Problem there was solved when checked "Use dumb endpoint". I don't know what it is, but may be something with USB charging (?) If this is the problem it may be solved with registry fix: "HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\usbfndrv\EnableUsbCharging" change to "0".

nah, "Your new hardware might not work properly" is just a general indication that something in usb protocol (data transfer, sequencing, etc) is not right. but its impossible to deduce, what exactly is wrong just from this common message.

Hello,

I have installed card cache on my qtek 8300 (imate aku2 rom) to have pocket ie cache and cookies stored on my storage card.

When I deactivate wm5storage I am not able to run internet explorer again until I reboot.

Thanks.

Just tried to format card I use ( kingston elite pro 1gb 50x ), still having same problem. It connects, it sees files, even could copy one file from device to computer but then hangs until next activation/deactivation. Any ideas ? ( I use v 1.46 )

Either dont use CardCache, or make sure that IE not running before you activate Mass Storage (ie stop it with Task Manager).

Same story and for v.1.3 and for v.1.34 ... works but hangs after few actions.

Again my device is Fujitsu-Siemens Pocket LOOX C550, memory card is Kingston x50 elite pro, os is win xp sp2

edit:

as of pocket itself - it does not hangs, hangs only upload or download or any other action on PC. Also tested it under linux. It was found as /dev/sdc1, I mounted it, started transfer and then it hanged too. So, I do not think that it is problem of host OS.

edit #2:

It appears that for v. 1.34 there is no problem with read operations. Only write operations hanging device. For example file upload or mkdir.

For write operations windows complains "Delayed write failed"

edit #3:

Versions v.1.43 and v.1.35 does not working at all
