I tried many different versions of wm5torage on my wings, and I can't get one to work I was wondering if it was working for you, S730 owners?
I tried with a 1GB microSD, and a 8GB SDHC with no success at all...even Softick Card Export trial can't give me access to my card
XP recognizes a USB peripheral in the tray, I can even see a removable drive with a letter ( G: ) , but my data isn't there (it's empty) and I can't write on it
I would be glad if someone could help me out...
Tried on mine, I have windows Vista and its working for Me, all directories and files are accesible for Me. I can make a new directory on the card.
Thank you for trying ! I guess the only thing I can do now is a hard reset of my device..... It was very tweaked to save RAM
EDIT:: I really can't get it to work Please, which version of wm5torage did you use ?
I'd also like to get WM5torage working on the S730 with WM6.1. I'm trying v1.80. A Removable Disk (G appears in Vista but if I click it I get an error message saying that it needs to be formatted.
So what's the secret mykie?
You know, I think mykie has a T-Mobile Wing and not an HTC Wings.
The Wings has a bad USB driver that can't properly be used by WM5torage, if I understood it correctly.
On the Kaiser (which has the same chipset as the Wings and surely the same drivers), they managed to make wm5torage work by installing Softick CardExport too (which installs his own USB driver, that wm5torage can use afterwards).
I couldn't reproduce it on the Wings with the SP version of CardExport
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?
WMStorage WORKING
You must cancel at setup->connection->USB to PC
Enabled advanced network functionality.
Do you know anybody, what means allow it?
frem, I did not find a solution to this problem yet. I'm using an USB stick where you can put your sdcard in.
jivo, it's the wingS we're speaking about.
I won't think wm5torage works for anything anymore :-/ At least on my kaiser it fails all of the time. I just plugged it into a Vista machine and I love how easy it is to just access the storage card. Vista would get rid of any desire for WM5torage other than the fact that everyone doesn't run Vista.

I'm running Helmi's WM2k5 AKU3.0 v.1.2 Beta rom, but I have a problem with wm5torage.
When I enable it, it shows up on my computer but when I go into the device nothing shows up. I seem to remember it working fine in the AKU2.3 rom.
Anyone else got this problem?

Yes, i have the same problems.
I did a test, and realise that drive letter that you see inside your PC is the "Extended ROM" on your device.
You can make "extended ROM" visible and copy some files to it. and you will be able to see it on your PC.
on all wm5 roms ive tried with extrom support wm5torage uses it, i think it may have somthing to do with the order they are mounted...

I thinks you are right. WM5torage see the first storage only, some ROMs see the SD card and some see extended rom.
Would there be any way around this do you think?

There's a way... Use the new Version Of WM5Storage v1.7 with the ability to select the disk to be mount.
the detection procces in my computer is slow, maybe my firewall, I Dont know for sure, since the author said this app might not work for some device, but give it a try...
I'll try it tonight on your AKU3.2 ROM Helmi, when I get round to upgrading.
It also detects very slow on my PC, but my XBox 360 picks it up straight away so I will use that one.
wm5torage v1.7 works fine on 1.3 Helmi. Good work
I have the same problem with both WM5torage 1.5,1.6,and 1.7 in both Helmi 1.2 and 1.3. When I activate WM5S and dock the BA, I get the windows device connect sound and no drive pops up in explorer. As soon as I undock the BA a removeable drive briefly pops up as the device disconnect sound chimes. What is causing this?
I've not actually tried docking with my PC yet - but it connects fine to my Xbox 360, is recognised and can browse though it and play my music So it might be an OS problem if it won't recognise it on the PC (I run Vista BTW, so that might be my problem).
Same problems , using 1.7 , drive does not show up on windows. And also Storage card disappear from device, must reset device ....
I am running helmi's 1.3 beta and 1.7 wm5torage and it works fine. The only problem is that you need to give almost 5 minutes to it before the drive appears.
I think you guys might be facing the same slowness. Which is why the sound of device connecting and disconnecting is coming.
Hope this Helps.
last time I remember it working fine was 1.5 with a logout ROM
a different problem for me
i have :
universal
helmi c 3.5 v1.3
wm5storage 1.73
it says and i quote !!
Can't switch to mass storage usb driver, error 1f. maybe some running programs have files open on storage card, preventing direct access. try to close all running programs.
note that i do NOT have any running programs, or have any programs installed to storage card !!!
all i have on my storage card are mp3s ....
can't seem to make it work !
V1.73 works on Helmi/Logout ROM.
As Naveen_J pointed out, it takes from 3 to 5 minutes to display the drive icon in File Explorer.
The Storage Card is missing after disconnect but taking it out of the slot & reinserting back gets it recognized by BA once again. No need to soft reset.
@dhob187:
Do you have installed & running any Today Screen plugin (Resco Today, SPB +. W. Advance Desktop, etc.) that displays SD Card status? In case any of those plugins are running, might be causing the conflict.
Wm5Torage not working
Anyone tried it ?
Is there anyother app that does the same and works ?
Tried that as well just now. Couldn't get it to work either. Haven't dared to try Softick CardExport yet....
Might have to do a hard reset again (have issues with the phone locking up the device). That would my chance of trying. If and when I do, I'll report back.
Softick CardExport does not work (yet) either. The TyTN II however is not the only WM6 device where it does not work. On the Palm Treo 750 on WM6 neither of the two works either.
I guess it;s just a matter of time before the authors of either program issues a real WM6 compatible update.
I am a registered user of Softick CardExport and have mailed the author for info about an eventual upgrade.
CardExportII does work on Tilt but I couldnt get WM5Storage V1.78Beta2 to work with the Tilt.
Softik CardExport II does work on HTC Kaiser.
I bought it and use it without any problem.
Even I created a script (mortscript) that can launch CardExport II with USB charge disabled
Code:
v = RegRead("HKLM", "Drivers\BuiltIn\Battery", "EnableUSBCharging")
RegWriteDWord("HKLM", "Drivers\BuiltIn\Battery", "EnableUSBCharging", 0)
SleepMessage(5, "Disabling USB Charging ...", "Wait")
RunWait("\Program Files\Softick\Card Export II\CardExport.exe")
SleepMessage(3, "Setting back USB Charging ...", "Wait")
RegWriteDWord("HKLM", "Drivers\BuiltIn\Battery", "EnableUSBCharging", v)
A case of Deja vue.
This identiaclly named thread from September minus the !!!
WM5torage will work but it needs the drivers that Card Export uses. Trial version apparently works, I'm not sure if WM5Torage carries on working after the Card Export trial expires.
Deja vu
Still using WM5torage reguraly on my TyTN II, with a shortcut to the expired Card Export II in \Windows\Startup. With my tip mentioned in the other thread the CE client will start at startup and exit right away. No trayicon will show, and WM5torage will work.
Update: WM5Torage stops working when the trial is expired. I modified the registry so that the trayclient thought it was expired. W5Torage still worked. Now that the actual trial period is passed, also WM5torage stops working.
Helas..
Hi,
since a couple of days, my XDA II doesn't sync any more. It has still worked finefor a long time, since I have updated to WM6.
With my Orbit 1 async is always working fine.
When I connect it to the PC, the PC is always looking for a USB Driver.
Configuration:
Win XP; Async 4.5
XDAII WM6 by Shekhar 70C40CS
What I've tried: - changing USB-Connection and cable
- hard and Softreset
- changing USB to PC advanced network
- reinstalled async
- trying another PC
- reinstalling WM6 - no way, cause there is no USB driver
Maybe, that it is a hardware problem; but I doubt it, cause everytime, when I connect it to the PC, the PC ist trying to install a driver. So I think, there might be a software problem into the Himalaya.
Any ideas?
Sync problem - missing Driver.
Same problem with me on my notebook. Ask for help in another thread a few week ago, and got the advice to swith to active sync 4.5. I did so on my desctop and it worked wonderfull. On my notebook I stayed on as 3.8 because of my xda II and my old mda I. After I upgraded all my three xda to German WM6 i switched to as 4.5 german. I was verry suprised to get that fault window about the missing driver for that prototype thing and changing the vendor.
Not a mess I still have the desktop to install .exe and then copy the .cab files I need to my sd-cards. It´s not the known problem with the firewall (zone alarm), but it is a good question why as an the desctop works and the notebook doesn´t. Next I try to install the copied as-file from the desktop. Don´t know if it helps, I post if it does.
Hi, I had exactly the same problem, but I solved it in seconds because of Your last thread, thanx.
I had configured my windows firewall with "no exceptions".
I reactivated /checked the firewall-exceptions for ActiveSync on the PC and activated the extended networkfunctions under usb to pc on the xda and immediately everything worked fine.
Solved my problem too. Nice to help you.
Fine that I helped you, it wasn´t my purpose.
I got rid of that dammned thing about the missing driver for Prototype.
Read the hints of Jo_III in Post #28 and #31:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341221
and follow exactly.
Insert in /windows with the name changed, rename it afterwards.
No question, why this is possible without the massage that it is impossible, as you get it, when you try to replace directly, but it works!!
Then soft reset and change /settings/connections Advanced Network Funtionality to disable/unchequed.
The funny thing with me is, that on my Dektop-PC both works.
Advanced Network Funktionality enabled the driver is for the Prototype.
This funktion disabled finds a WinCe Device.
Both works fine. No freesed PPC when disabled any more.
On my own notebook I can connect to the PC only in disabled Mode. When enabled this prototype driver problem is still there.
On the notebook of my beloved wife as4.0 recognizes the PPC an a WinCE Device but has a problem code 10. Think it´s normal as it is 4.0 and 4.5 installs new usbdriver while upgrading.
I tryed to upgrade to 4.5 and the windows installer crashed. I love it, really nice. I don´t want to fix this, I think, for me it is OK to ignore this.
This funny behavior, as i discribed it above, all my upgraded XDA/Qtek (all three of them) do.
PS. I use the German Rom of Teijalk with HTC Home and SCLPC++ Cube and I love it. Works perfekt and really fast and stable even with lots of proggis on RamDisk and few RAMStorage left, still really fast with my Pluscom WLan Card.
The Link is:
http://rapidshare.com/files/88608779/WM6ger.zip.html
More stuff like this. Thank You - thombs up!
The info above is wrong.
Only on my Qtek this solved my problem. Both of my XDA can´t deaktivate RDNIS for serial connection, when I try to uncheque Advanced Net Funktionality.
Don´t know why, I did the same on the other device without an error.
(Now I examined, that I used Port 8 twice. Once for serial to USB connection and second for external GPS connection, so it wasn´t able to deactivate this funktion anymore. I changed Port and everything is fine again.)
Final problem solved
totoche330 got the solution to my XDA sync problem in the thread above.
After Hard reset (No,Yes,Yes) inserting and renaming the dll. Soft reset and deactivating adv net funktionality. Works.
Don´t know why it didn´t work as it worked with my Qtek with all the programs installed, but dosn´t matter.
The problem of my notebook might have some reason:
The missing driver is called a Remote Network Driver Interface Specification to USB (RNDIS).
I think, I disabled everything to remote, because of one up to 25 trojan attacks.
I cured my xp, but i didn´t do a new setup. On the other hand it´s the only XP-Pro SP2. Desktop and other notebook are Home Edition SP2, but this is not important anymore. All PPC sync and that´s what it was about.
Two or three hours work and all the progs are back again. I hope, you can solve your problems too. Good Luck.
Does noone can write a driver for the cf-slot of the backpack?
Sometimes after soft reset you have to cheque and uncheque adv net funktionality inorder to get synced!!
As you might probably knew already, Windows Mobile 6.1 is having problem with USB mass storage emulation software like SoftTick CardExport or WM5Storage.
If you have SofTick CardExport, please report it here :
http://softick-forum.com/viewtopic.php?t=1498
Because if more people reported there it will get more attention.
And I believe (hope) that it will also benefit the WM5Storage (I still remember that in the olden days, we need to install Softick trial version to make the WM5Storage work).
I upgraded my Kaiser yesterday to official WM6.1 and wasn't aware of this problem yet:
infact I've a x51v WM6.1(LennySH Dell Stock Beta 7) and with Card Export II 3.08 I can explore both SDHC cards from my PC-XP.
So the problem with Card Export II,probably,is linked to Kaiser and not to WM6.1
Just curious, but what problem are you having? I am using Card Export II 3.11 with Dutty's 4/29/08 6.1 rom on my Tilt and all seems to be working fine.
Hi, i have a Problem too. When i activate WM5torage, my windows recognize my sd card as a usb stick, but i can't grab on it. My Windows show me the Message "Its not Card in", But it is a card in. Can one help me.
Tnak you
Card Export fixed !!!!!
http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/
Its now FIXED!! and works great for wm 6.1 upgrades. My tilt is now whacking across over a gig of photo files without stopping for a pause. USB settings DO NOT need messing with nor do any of the CardExport functions.
Install.....and use as a mass storage device. I did not need to play around with any of the settings either PPC or PC end.
great program. was surprised my tilt didnt come with this..
I've flashed about 10 to 15 WM6.1 ROMs and have used Card Export II successfully in every single ROM. I don't think it's a 6.1 problem.
Cooking CardExort II into a ROM?
I have tried a few times to make an OEM package out of CardExport II but have never managed to get it to work. I installed the Application, copied all the files off and did a registry export. I then searched through the exported registry file and extracted all (I think?) the CardExport II entries and built an OEM package. So I have at the moment an almost working package however when the application is launched and you click connect, ActiveSync disconnects OK, then a few seconds later the big button on the Kaiser turns from Disconnect back to Connect and ActiveSync re-connects.
Has anyone sucessfully made an OEM package of CardExport II to include in a ROM?
Cheers
Andy

What he said.....
I use Windows mobile 6.1 and it works fine for me. They have the best protection on the software I have seen and I believe it still hasnt been cracked. Most people who have a problem with this software are using a cracked version which doesent stay cracked for very long, it then stops working in many different ways IE on the website's FAQ
Q: My Card Export II works fine but sometimes it says that "Wrong usb status returned by underlying driver". How can I fix this?
A: Just do not use cracked or patched versions. If you like Card Export II, consider purchasing it. Card Export II costs only $14.95. After receiving unlock code, remove your patched version from your handheld and install fresh version from our web site. After that register it using unlock code you have received from Softick.
Best app on my phone....
Hello,
my problem is at wm5torage:
when I start a java application it doesn´t work. It comes the error:
"Cant´t switch to Mass Storage USB driver, error 1f. Maybe some programs or plugins run from or have files open on storage card...."
But I have no contact at this time to the SD-Card.
Card Export works at the same place. But it isn´t free, so I try to use WM5torage, because it is free.
Can anybody help me with this problem?
Thank you
Best regards

Hi all,
I am looking for a a way to browse the contents of my Kaiser (file explorer) through a USB connection to my PC WITHOUT having to install ActiveSync. Is it even possible?
I've searched the forum, browsed the stickies but I can't seem to find an answer.

Nope, as far as I am aware, activesync is needed.
If you do not have the disk, you can download the software here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/activesync45.mspx
There are a couple of apps that can do this. I think one of them might be called "card export", but don't hold me to it...
yes, there is.
you can use wm5torage v1.8, but you need to make some trials with Menu--> troubleshooting options before activiate wm5storage.
On success you will browse your SD card on your PC.
see attachments
@chrisrc1985: I'm not that hopeless of a n00b Thanks for the activesync download link, but I definitely do not want to install it on my very public PC at work!
@dancj: Card Export is what I'm looking for, only problem is, it's not freeware
@dool2002: Cool, I'll give wm5torage a try but it looks like it's very iffy and not very stable.
Anyway, thanks for your replies guys; appreciate it!
WM5torage usually doesn't work on the Kaiser. CardExport does. But remember this only lets you browse the storage card and not the internal phone memory.
Another option is to use Mocha FTP server, and to browse your phone through the network with an FTP client. This allows to view the phone memory as well. However it would only be over wifi/bluetooth for you, as USB still requires ActiveSync to be installed to add the USB network drivers.
Thanks for the heads up about WM5torage, guess I won't bother trying to fiddle with it...
As for CardExport, I tried the evaluation version and it is exactly what I need! Now the only thing left to do is find a freeware that does the same...
WM5torage works with me
I used wm5torage few times with Kaiser, it works fine with me when I select both disables from troubleshooting menu. I copy around 300 meg with it without any mentioned problems.
If you guys know a bug in it, please let me know.
Well I installed WM5torage to try it out (and did a soft reset after the install). When I clic on the disables in the troubleshoot menu, nothing happens, I mean how do I know that the actual options have been disabled? And how do I re-enable them?!
Anyways, when I activate it and plug my phone in, my PC detects a new storage device called WM5torag (without the 'e'), installs drivers for it, then... nothing! It doesn't appear in my windows explorer.
If it's of any relevance, I am running my Kaiser under the HTC WM6.1 official ROM.

Many people are having problems with it, and the only semi-working version actually requires some files ripped from CardExport. It seems it sometimes works on certain ROMs, but like many others (mainly under WM6.1 I think) I have no luck with my configuration. I'm getting the common explorer freeze with subsequent "please insert a disk in drive X:" message when trying to access the drive, and the Kaiser freezes most of the time as well. Sometimes the drive doesn't even appear on the PC.
WM5torage is worth trying once, if it works for you then you're lucky, if not then don't bother getting mad trying to get it to work as it's very unlikely it will.

"Personal Edition only works over ActiveSync (tethered or via Bluetooth)."
Try nueMassStorage.... it makes your device USB easy to install apps without active sync... but it also gives you the choice to use Active sync if you want to....
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/page/nueMassStorage.aspx
And it is free and reliable! Using it on my mogul 6800...
It works the same way as WM5torage, so same has the same problems on the Kaiser, or even worse.
Hi,
I'm trying to solve this problem for a week...
My father is using Elf, another ppc with WM6.1 - there is the funny thing:
in application (settings) USB to PC -
In my Kaiser it is asking for ActiveSync Connection or Internet Sharing.
In father's PDA it is asking for ActiveSync, Inernet Sharing and USB DRIVE.
Does anybody know something about it? I would like to have also three variations of connection i that dialog.
Is it a different version of Usb to PC service?
Thanx a lot!
btw: sorry for my bad english.
