MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

hey i have a Verizon XV6800 (going to flash to cricket soon) but i can't get the damn thing to recognize my MicroSD card!

i have 2 microsd cards, i've only tried one, but i will try the other one soon. now the thing is i insert it, and the phone does nothing, i wouldn't say anything but the thing is it ALSO gets stuck inside...

does this phone have no eject mechanism for the microsd cards?

my old phone, you would push it in more, and the car would eject by itself... but mine does nothing if i push it in more, and i have a hard *** time trying to get it out with pins and needles!

i also googled online on "how to" insert a microsd card into the phone just to double check i didn't do it wrong, but found nothing. even the stupid user manual has NO info on it...:protest:

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

yes, but it sounds like its broken. (label up btw [pins down])
otherwise some strategic hits & wiggles might do the trick.
remember it's not abuse if there's no bruise.

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

before i go on, i suspect only the eject mechanism might be the problem, because i forgot to mention the microsd card i inserted into it was NTFS format...

i have another one that is on FAT32, which i will try later when i get home. but does anyone know if the phone does not recognize NTFS??

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

No it can't read NTFS.

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

All Micro cards come with a standard SD adapter. So if you put it in the adapter and insert it in your laptop/desktop and it works there then you know the card is good and the PPC reader is bad.

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

just checked, it was the NTFS thing, i got another card on FAT32 and that worked...

the eject mechanism does not work though. that still sucks >_<

neways now i'm having problems with connecting to it using QPST, because my phone is stuck on the screen with colors, and says Oilpro at the top...

and i can't figure out how to connect it up with QPST. when i click "add port" there's no USB port to add there.

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

You cant be in bootloader and try to use qpst. You have top be in windows and open diagnose mode ##3424

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

ok thanks for your fast reply...

yes i have been reading up and reaserching, and i have found that i am stuck at the bootloader screen of Oilpro

i thought QPST could be able to connect to it even if it was there, at least get some kind of data-only connection, seems that won't work...

ok so what can i do from here man?

i also have my SPC, but it should all be 0's anyways...

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

Search for stuck in bootloader thread. Are you stuck there because you need to install a radio and rom?

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

i searched a lot of things, in a lot of places, and yes i was stuck because i needed to install a radio and rom, but that's not the problem, the problem is i'm stuck on olipro 1.2, which i just found out is OLLLLLLLD

so now i'm stuck because i need the new bootloader.

i took care of the radio, so that's one down and one to go. i'm running radio 3.37.50, cuz i read that's the best for verizon (even though i will use it with cricket).

neways is there a naked .nbh file for no2chem 2.47, or olipro 2.40??

i would rather have no2chem's version though...

OK I FIXED IT, AFTER ALMOST 12 HOURS OF NON-STOP WORK!!! omg

anyways, the eject slot on my microsd card doesn't work, would you happen to know where i can buy some tools to open up the phone and see whats up inside??

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

you need a T-6 torx head screwdriver. I've seen them at hardware stores, and even biglots.

Good luck, they don't call it micro for nothing.

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

Actually the 6800 uses Allen screws. The 6700 is what used Torx screws. Also Alfreado, it says everywhere I can think of NOT to use Olipro 1.2 However you could have found an old WM6 to flash, then get Olipro 2.4

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

my bad, didn't realize verizon used different screws too. all my sprint ones have been torx.

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

oh ok... so i would look for "Allen screwdrivers"??

and what are the specific sizes?

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

Go to a hardware store or a RadioShack. They have like a set of tiny ones. They called "Allen Wreches".

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

ok thanks everyone for all your helpful information. but now, i would have to ask, does anyone know if there is a guide, to either take apart and service my phone, the titan

or if anyone has posted up some kind of tutorial, that had the same problem as me, and shows some pics and stuff on how to repair the eject mechanism on the microSD slot on the XV6800??:violent2:

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

yea, there are several people that have posted pictures ect. of taking the titian's apart.
I know some brave sole's have done resoldering on the phones too.

the other thought would be http://www.ameri-rack.com/APA-TFC1m.html it was used in a mod for a touch here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=62316

Re: MicroSD slot in XV6800 doest work!!?
 

hmm ok i'll try to use that as a guide, although it never actually touches up on the microsd module itself
