So for now its a dedicated WP7 SD card?

I've followed this thread and see I can reformat with a newer symbian phone etc. once WM7 locks it.

So if I take the SD card out of my Sony Ericcson X1a and put it in my Focus ( which should arrive tomorrow) what will happen to all the data on my card?

Or is the better solution to buy another card (from the WP7 certified lists) and just leave it in my Focus for now and transfer the data from my old card to it?

The down side I see now is card swapability between WM6X and WP7...I can live with that and all you peeps who are much smarter than I will probably find a fix sooner or later.
[Focus General] wildbilll:
There needs to be a app that will allow the SD card to be unlocked by the phone in which it is installed. This is doable. If it can lock the card, it should be able to unlock it as well. If I want to put in a bigger card I shouldn't have to throw away the old one. Come on MS!
[Focus General] rmaffeo:
Has anyone tried the Windows SD card formatter utility from sdcard.org, using the erase option?
[Focus General] FishFaceMcGee:
Looking at the requirements for the software, I can already see it's not going to work. It has to be able to "see" the card, and cards that are locked by WP7 do not "start" in desktop Windows so they can't bee seen.
[Focus General] SportbikeRiderXX:
I can't seem to track down anyone with a modern Nokia phone. Is there anyone here (in the US) with an appropriate Nokia phone that will reformat my 8GB storage card for me? I'll send it to you along with a self-addressed stamped envelope so you can send it back to me. I'll include $5 for the service. PM me with your address.

Thanks in advance, Alan.

Clone SD Card

Is there a way to clone my sd card. I have 2gb in my Focus but I want to upgrade to a new 16gb card, but dont want to lose all my information. Any suggestions.
[Focus General] zyexx:
Strange enough when I put the card in my captivate i can browse to it from my phone, just no where else, even if I use the phone to format it, its still not readable in the PC.

What version of the symbian software is on the phones you guys use?
[Focus General] V DidDy 210:
now that they've stopped selling the vivaz and e71, anyone know any other att phones that format my card?

i want to put it in my atrix
[Focus General] c_h0use:
The only thing that can repair the SD after you take it out of a WP7 phone is a Nokia N8 or any other Symbian^3 phone with an SD slot. Engadget confirmed this and I'll put the link for the article up later. Don't know about older versions of Symbian though.
[Focus General] V DidDy 210:
^Oh I'm well aware, does ANY carrier stock a symbian device? T-Mobile? Sprint? Verizon?

I live in Upstate, New York So any of those are my options
[Focus General] V DidDy 210:
Just so everyone knows, t mobile has the nokia e73 but they are set to remove the working unit from the floor at the end of april. They don't know if they will be getting any more symbian units after this because they are moving exclusively to android and windows phone soon
[Focus General] phoneguy 4567:
For some reason I can't get the above to work, it asks for the code which I cancel but it won't let me choose format. Does this work with with a card formatted with the Focus?
[Focus General] rsohne:
T-Mobile should be selling the Nokia Astound and it should do the trick. It is the same as my N8 and I can format any memory cards that I used on the focus. If you can find one at a dealer put in the memory card and hit the center button. Then go /applications/office/file mgr. Hold your finger down on the memory card and choose format on the menu. Hope this helps.
[Focus General] iba21:
WORKS with N95 ;)

if i put the sd in the n95 it says me it needs a password to see the card files, i don't have that password.. if i try to format, i can do it, and it works, it will format in fat32

[Focus General] Dyskmaster:
hate to bring up an old topic, but are there any more US carriers that currently sell symbian devices as of today? I finally removed my sd card (was, somehow, causing lag on my phone at times and I didn't know why) because it was causing problems. Anyway, I'm not about to throw out a 32gb microSD card because my phone locked it up. Are there any really really cheap symbian phones (that can handle sdhc cards) which I could find on amazon or ebay? Thanks in advanced

(oh, and strange thing happened, i put the micro sd and adapter in my 3ds and... it asked me if i wanted to format it. I said yes, it went for about 2 seconds and then said "this SD card is locked or encripted, please unlock to use. it was about 2 seonds of elation and then complete deflation :-/)

[Focus General] xfox:
i managed to use a Nokia e71 that was on display in a mobile store nearby -_o , i inserted the card and went to the memory settings and formatted it.

after that i turned my HD2 off installed the card and did a hard reset....then voila

the phone was up and running again :)
[Focus General] TheCuban:

[Focus General] sirstanleybowles:
Any Ideas guys?

Yes same here!! well nearly its my HTC HD2 that has the 2gb card on wp7 any help would be good

Tried the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab(just to unlock) using WP7-Update-Cab-Sender but I get this message:

ERROR: The installed version of ZuneWMDU (4.8.2345.0) doesn't match the tool version (4.8.2134.0)

I was wondering if there is a work round for this maybe duping/rewriting the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab?

I only want to copy this 2gb to my 16gb SD not format it.

I hope someone has an idea :)

regards

SSB
[Focus General] Rahmani10:
h same issue here, I had all my vacation photos on that SD card, my phone suddnely stopped booting, and keep rebboting hanging on wp7 logo, i know that I can format it Nokia phone but I neeeeeeeed the Data, any Ideas Please! I'm going crazy :(
[Focus General] chrislynch:
Not going to happen. Your data is unrecoverable by conventional means. You may be able to find a data recovery specialist, but it's going to cost you quite a bit. The SD card is encrypted. Plus, what ever files are located at the beginning of the disk will most likely be unrecoverable, as they will most likely only have partial data.

Now, if you left the Pictures Hub settings with their default, WP will upload pics to your Skydrive account. Go to http://skydrive.live.com, log in with your Windows Live account, and you should see a folder Skydrive Camera Roll. Lower resolution versions of your pictures will be stored there.
[Focus General] Rahmani10:

[Focus General] sahilarora911:
Worked on HTC HD2 using W.I.N.C.O's wCabSender utility

Actually I was able to do this successfully on a friend's HTC HD2. I'm not sure if being on an unofficial ROM helped the process.

But still here is what I did if it helps someone.

What was required was the latest version of zune. (This is required for wCabSender to work)

http://www.zune.net/en-US/

and wCabSender utility by W.I.N.C.O

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1315179

(Zune should not be running in the background)

There is a DEV_STORAGELOCK option there. (someone above tried to do that I suppose, unsuccessfully though). I must point out though that I pushed Developer Unlock, Root and Dev Storagelock at the same time (dunno if that is important). The phone will seem to update as it would while you update with Zune.

Once it is updated, it will boot back in WP7. There would be an option saying Storage Lock. Tap on it and it will say something like "Your SD card is locked, would you like to unlock it?"

Tap yes. Now when you take your SD card out and put it in your SD card reader you will have a 200 MB partition visible. (This can be extended using softwares such as Easeus Partition Tool etc.)

Edit: The card had to be unlocked using Storage Lock option of WP7 once I had booted into WP7 or the SD card was again unrecognized. I don't have the phone with me so could not do more research for a permanent way.

[Focus General] anhyeuemmaimai:

[Focus General] V DidDy 210:
hey y'all don't mean to bump a thread for nothing, but I've been dealing with the focus SD card issues for years now and I have some good (ish) news.

So I've been using a 32gb card in the focus as a zune because of it's insane battery life on airplane mode, but since I use it less and less now that I have bluetooth in my car and a Galaxy Note 3 I wanted to get the 32gb card back. I remembered that I used a Nokia Symbian device to unlock it last time...but there was literally no where for me to find one. So just on a whim I put the card in my Note 3 and it asked me for password prompt or to format! Formatted and it formatted it in FAT16 which was inconvenient, BUT at least my computer could read the card now, reformatted in extFAT and now alls well again.

So just in case anyone else is still rocking an old focus and wants a bit of reprieve for the card in the long run.

[Captivate General] shengshuyang:
After flashing to Cognition 2.3, I've never got a loc again, and now cog2.4, still no loc. and between them I've tried Doc's i9000 roms, none of them can find even one satellite in the sky.

My GPS used to work, although always took 30 seconds to get a fix, it worked most of the time, and now it's totally in hell.

So I'm asking, is it because leaked roms don't have optimized GPS settings or is it just my GPS chip broke sometime? I'm really thinking about replacement...
[Captivate General] abezapata:
I think it has to do with cognition as dg doesn't implement any gps fixes. This happened to me too when I was running cog but as soon as I switched roms (with some lbs tweaks) my gps was fine again. Run another rom and apply some fixes and you should be good to go.
[Captivate General] Tzu2050:
Go through and experiment with LBSTESTMOD configurations. That is all I had to do with Cognition 2.4, and it worked.
[Captivate General] crystalhand:
I have had the same problem with that cog build. The only real time I use the gps is when I go for a run. I have never had a problem getting a lock on my run but with this version i have almost no chance of getting a lock at any time. So my opinion is the gps problem Is only related to this version.

[Off-topic] Intervenient:
I've never particularly liked any branch of my academics, however I excelled in my English classes and I thought the most natural thing to do was declare it my major. I absolutely hate academic reading though, as I see it mostly as a lot of meaningless interpretation of issues that aren't there, and mostly guesswork. The thought of wading through 200 pages a week of 1000 CE English writing does not sound at all appealing to me.

So given my interest in computers and my tinkering with them over the last 10-12 years or so, I've been thinking about changing my major to computer science. I know C.S. is more than just programming, but out of the learning of python I've done by myself, it seems actually pretty fun and like I can really immerse myself in what I'm doing.

However, my previous record in math and school in general has not been extremely successful. Our school never offered anything past Pre-Calc, but I made an A in it, and a B in Physics.

Can anyone shed some light on what more I should do, or help me think my decisions through?

Thanks
[Off-topic] nicholaslyz:
I'm not sure if the impression of C.S. in US is the same as in Asia, but over here people who do C S usually end up doing coding (not programming!) jobs and those are mostly outsourced from countries like India and China. So even if we happen to be interested in any part of CS it remains more of an interest rather than an actual, stable working career. Like medicine.

So I'm a freshman majoring in C.S. I have to take Calculus and Calculus II next semester. Also as the major class I have "Computer Programing and Problem Solving" which is basically intro to programing. So far we are doing pseudocode but next week I think we are starting Java.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cm1ck:
**SOLVED**: Just went ahead and Odin'd back to stock. Works.

It seems that after reverting back from the lagfix from Ryan's OCLF for 2.2 on Macnut R10, after doing a full apps + data backup in Titanium Backup, I cannot flash any recovery image, even after attempting to go to an experimental recovery image in Clockwork, then uninstalling ROM Manager altogether, removing /sdcard/update.zip. Have tried to boot into recovery using the buttons on a confirmed non-hardware locked Vibrant and ADB, also. No luck. Download mode works fine, and the phone is detected in Odin.

Even after re-applying the lagfix from Ryan's OCLF, it's still fubared. What gives? Anyone have any clues?

If all else fails, and I were to go to Eugene's Unofficial 2E Froyo using Odin, would I expect that to fix my recovery image? As I see it, if I were to hastily do this, I may not be able to get back into Recovery to do the obligatory Factory Reset (Wipe Cache + Data), and end up with a brick. Great.

This phone is a refurb from T-Mo. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
