non-SDHC cards with the new firmware
 
The new firmware release notes say that >2GB cards must support SDHC.

Months ago, I purchased two 4GB non-SDHC cards that work perfectly in my N800. All 4GB is visible.

If I upgrade to the newest firmware, will these cards cease to be readable because they're >2GB and are non-SDHC?

Thanks,

Chris

It was said in another thread that the older 4GB non-SDHC cards that worked before do work fine...

I've just updated, and thus far, my 4 GB non-SDHC card seems to be working fine. I've done nothing more than open a few files from it, but I've experienced no problems in doing so.

Likewise - I have had no problems so far with my non-SDHC 4 gig card.

Does anybody have one of those 4GB MobyMemory cards (http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail...Y%5F4096%5F001) and tested it with the new firmware?

I have 2GB SD card and a little problem with it.
- I can't delete directories from filemanager
- I can't delete dirs from terminal using "rm -rf"
All it says is 'read only filesystem' :(

I've tried also formatting it from filemanager's menu (and it seems it goes ok) but when i open card, everything is still there.

I've also tried to mount card on my desktop computer - iMac G5 - but it doesn't mount.

Is there anything else I can do, or should I just go and buy new card?

Thanks.

See this bug: MMC read-only/corruption bug persists... https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1204

Is N800 killing more cards than other devices? Maybe. We dont't know if its only a software problem or if the hardware is also concerned. Or maybe (el cheapo) memory cards are just weak nowadays.
