> W800i Memory stick completely dead?
Bookmark topic
i too am having MS problems. but this was caused randomly. i went to set my alarm on my phone at about midnight one night and it kept flashing up insert sim so after abotu 30 mins of fiddling abotu re inserting the sim numeros times it works. ( got the sim replaced the next day.) then wake up in morning and goto put on the MP3 player as its a bit to quiet in the cellar. and the phone cant read any files on the MS.
plug the MS into my card reader cant see it.
put it back in my phone and do the mem card test and it comes up unmounted.
so both my 512 and 128 sticks dont like my phone. but i can see my 16 and 32 stick.
codes are as follows
AX0536504162B ( 512MB card)
SDMSPC-32AA0507AJ (32 MB CARD)

I have faced exactly the same problem. My memory stick died when I connected the phone to the computer for the first time.
When I talked with O2, they said, "oh yes we will replace it" and they gave me a freepost address to send the faulty one back to them. After about an hour or so, an email arrived in my inbox saying they have despatched my order free of cost and it mentioned the memory stick is 256 MB. I immediately contacted them and they said thats all they can do and told me to contact customer support. I have now asked for the details of SE and sandisc to see if I can get it sorted. I have also sent a formal complaint letter to O2 to see if it has any effect. Otherwise I plan to go to the small claims court.
Rather unfortunate for someone who has been with O2 for more than 5 years.
The bottomline is, I will in future be very cautious of buying stuff from O2.

My card has not died, only had my w800i four days. I updated to R1AA008 straight away after charging & that seemed to go fine.
However I do notice that in my windows XP event log I get the following errors:
the System Log:
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: Disk
Event Category: None
Event ID: 51
Date: 12/03/2006
Time: 17:53:05
User: N/A
Computer: P3000
Description:
An error was detected on device \\Device\\Harddisk1\\D during a paging operation.
Does this mean that the memory stick is likely to be faulty? All the files I transfer seem to get there and all play one, but I did find one that didn't match the size that it should have been (some bytes had been added).
Also a couple of times the drive has just completely disappeared from windows and about half the time when I try to safely disconnect using the icon in the task tray it says "generic device cannot be stopped right now".
My MS Duo card details:
SDMSPD-512
AX0511CS
Do people who have been regularly using the card get those messages in the event log? Is it a red herring or a sign of a bad card?

I have seen a card with serial #: AX06048W. Do you think it will be safe to buy for my w800i? (Sandisk 2gb duo pro)
