6680 card changing

4 replies · 1,629 views · Started 03 March 2006

Fed up with having only 64MB, I have decided to get a new RS-MMC card of 512MB. I know that there are some programs and system files stored on the card that came with the phone (they appear in FExplorer, but they don't show in Windows Explorer, when I connect the phone to my computer). I would like to know how can I move ALL these files from the original card to the new one, so that all the installed applications will continue to work.
Thank you!

The way i did it was using a mmc card reader (i got one that also reads 15 other types for AU$30). Using this reader, all files and folders on the card will be avaliable. Then all you have to do is copy every thing from the old card to your pc's hard drive, put in the new card, then move the files to the new card.

And if I don't have a card reader? Can I use some special software or something, using the supplied USB data cable?

Surely everyone's got a card reader by now? They only cost ten pounds/15 Euros or so..... Or free with all sorts of things.

highly recommended.

Try to use vDisk. U can choose between bluetooth or USB cable as the connection. Transfer all the data in ur old MMC to PC, pul out ur old MMC from ur phone, insert the new one and transfer ur old MMC data (saved to PC from ur old MMC) to ur new MMC.
