[Guest calvin03]

i wonder if this works on my MPX200...would be soo nice ~ hehe

[Guest Vector]

where does this come from?...

could be interesting if it works tho :D

[Guest DingsDaT]

had someone test it?

[Guest rexyoung0613]

Yeah! some TaiWanese person has tested it!

[Guest FuNKySoULyBrO]

I had the Mio 8380, but no sychip wifi card. I'm able to run the app though. Since Sychip is the chip maker, does it mean tat the Sandisk n Socket Sd-wifi card will work??

[Guest indiekiduk]

If thats the config tool, how can we get the driver?

[Guest FuNKySoULyBrO]

Yeah! some TaiWanese person has tested it!

Can u provide the link on how that taiwanese guy manage to get it to work?? Did he just use this single exe file only? Wat sd wifi card did he use, ie Sandisk??

Cuz posted this file in another forum, and one guy with an O2 Xphone and Sandisk sd-wifi feedback tat it can't work on his Xphone.

I wonder if it is compatible with Mio 8390... I hope so :D

[Guest schriss]

I have opened that exe in notepad :D looks like it's just config tool ;)

We need drivers :lol:

[Guest markgamber]

That's exactly what it is, a config tool. I took a wifi sd card from a pocket pc and put it into the phone and absolutely nothing happened. No blinking connect light, no recognition of the card, no recognition at the connection point, nothing whatsoever. Whatever it needs to actually work isn't in this tool nor the phone.

[Guest FuNKySoULyBrO]

So anybody with a Mio 8380 tested it?

[Guest schriss]

rexyoung0613: can you please post more info about that wifi driver? A web page or something?

[Guest FuNKySoULyBrO]

Yep, it's just a config tool. I have a mio 8380, got a Sandisk wifi card recently, plug in the card, no response ( ie no blinking lights etc ). Open up the tool, set all the configs properly, then try to refresh, also no response.......

SD WiFi cards are actually special cards that require a device to be SDIO capable.

According to the manual and specs for the 8390 - the SD slot is NOT SDIO capable, so I highly doubt that the 8380 is. That probably explains why there is no repsonse from the card when inserted into the 8380.

I don't know enough about SDIO to know if an SD slot can be made SDIO capable through a software update - someone with more knowledge in this area would have to answer this. Because if this is the case, the phone could also be upgradable to Bluetooth with an SDIO card.

I also had another person with O2 Xphone to test this s/w on the Sandisk wifi card. As seen here http://www.myxphone.com/Xphone/happenings/...eProductInfo.vm , the Xphone supports SDIO.

But also encounter same problem, no response, nothing. Thus we can truely confirm that this s/w is just a config tool. It still needs a driver to work.

The i-Mate Smartphone2 is SDIO Compatible, says so in all it's spec sheets etc... just FYI :) i've not tried an SDIO WiFi card yet, due to they're extremely exspensive costs...
