At Long Last - Use Your PPC As USB Mass Storage

[Jon Westfall]

<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/' target='_blank'>http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/</a><br /><br /></div>* Switch USB mode from Active Sync to Card Export<br />* Insert your Pocket PC into cradle or connect to USB cable<br />* And after few seconds desktop drivers automatically mount cards as a logical disk!<br /><br /> <img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/westfall-20050611-softkick.gif" /> <br /><br />Many Readers have been emailing us about Softkick's new Preview Version of CardExport II for PPC. While Palm users have enjoyed the ability to plug their devices in and have them recognized as Mass Storage devices (Effectively turning their PDA into an SD Card Reader), this is something we've longed for in the PPC world. The Preview release looks pretty interesting, however it is limited in capability to PPC's running the Intel PXA25x and PXA27x processor. If you've got a device that it will run on (Such as my Dell Axim x50v), take it for a spin and let us know how it works (Works wonderfully on my Dell, no problems in initial testing... now in the "reaching for wallet" stage :D). If your device isn't running one of those processors, you may want to drop a feature request to Softkick to support your processor.<br /><br />It's fairly attractively priced at $14.95, so with just a little bit more compatibility, we may all be soon enjoying this feature to access our files on non-activesync computers!

oh my god... this is one of the reasons why i never got to getting rid of my Clie...

and is the subject of many posts here at PPCT (you could do a search on 'usb mass storage driver')...

and now its finally here...

and what such luck!?! i just got my new PPC, an Axim x50v, last weekend ---> its now play time for me...

:twisted:

[Jon Westfall]

Just as an update: I bought this app but the code they sent me was for the Palm version. I've emailed asking them to clarify on their order page what to order and to send me the correct code. Everyone might want to hold off purchasing until it's a bit clearer.

[yildi]

I have installed the trial version on my iPAQ Hx 4700. Impressively quick in comparison with AS explore feature. I discover that the USB 1. port of my laptop is not as slow as I was thinking ... I am waiting for the clarification but I will probably buy this nice tool.

thanks for the info...

would you be kind enough to notify us here if they've fixed their POS?

how is the trial? is it crippleware? or does the demo expire after a certain period of time?

[OSUKid7]

21 day trial, seems to be fully functional.

I'll try it out, but I don't like that you have to switch modes on the Pocket PC and can't sync while it's in the Card Export mode. Still, it's cool to say I have local drives up through letter O. :mrgreen:

[murph]

as Peter Griffin would say...
"Freakin' Sweet"

21-day trial, fully functional with 1 nag screen. very cool app. great for working with multiple PC's without Activesync. running on my HP4350. does exactly what is advertised.

it would be nice to be able to "switch on the fly", but not that big of a deal. disconnect cable, switch mode, reconnect cable. pretty easy.

[ricksfiona]

Pretty cool. I always hated installing AS on machines just to access the SD card on my iPAQ. This will make like a little easier.

[msprague]

Here is the link to order the Pocket PC version:

They don't seem to have it linked from the softick website very well.

Thanks for the link msprague. I still can't find it on the website!
It is nice to know they are responsive as well:

My copy is registered and I'm nearly a 100% happy camper... now if the program would just support the TI OMAP processor in my iPAQ, I'd be blissful.

If this works as advertised I can safely say it will reintegrate my Pocket PC back into my lifestyle after switching to Mac...

We don' need no steeenking LifeDrive...

Am I reading this correctly?

Can I actually use this on a computer without ActiveSync?

It's no joke. I can now stop carrying my $20 USB SD Card Reader as I can turn my $500 Pocket PC into a $20 USB SD Card Reader (Just a quirky observation - I'm not knocking the functionality!).

It will export the contents of external storage (Cards, and fileshare I believe) but not the actual \ directory of the PPC (But heck, just move the files over to the card!).

Nice proggie... Good proggie... you're bringing luke-warm PPC users back to full force :)

[Jonathan1]

Looks like its time to break down and buy myself one of those USB zip cables for my 4705. This is way cool news. Though my 60GB iPod kinda makes it look sad in compairson but still I can easily see a use for this. I keep my Pocket PC on my more then my music collection. Nice.

[Menneisyys]

I've also done some benchmarks: http://winmobiletech.com/062005CardExport/

Same here. I just ordered one from pocketpctechs for my X50v.

[Janak Parekh]

Finally. Jon, how's the performance? Please please please tell me it's much faster than ActiveSync 3.x.

[Menneisyys]

Finally. Jon, how's the performance? Please please please tell me it's much faster than ActiveSync 3.x.

--janak

It is much faster. I've measured between 5 and 7 times faster desktop -> SD writing with both my iPAQ 2210 and Pocket Loox 720. Reading is also faster, but "only" by a factor between 2 and 3.

[Paragon]

Cool!!

Geez, I need a life...I get giddy over little things like this. :alfdance: :drinking: :clap: :rock on dude!:

[hamishmacdonald]

Heads up for Asus MyPal A730W owners:

I bought this program based on what I read here, but it doesn't work on my device. I get numerous dialogue boxes about 'missing USB drivers, please download', but I've no idea where one's supposed to download USB client drivers for the MyPal. (I tried it with and without the USB host drivers I'd installed, but this had no effect.)

I've written to the developer (on a Saturday, so...)

[griph]

however it is limited in capability to PPC's running the Intel PXA25x and PXA27x processor.
That should be qualified cos it doesn't work on the MDA Compact/ iMate Jam etc with a PXA27x processor. Says so further down the page - but not noticed until after I had downloaded and installed it! :(

[ctmagnus]

Hm... It doesn't want to switch to card mode on my iPaq 5550 (uncradled at the time). And it won't recognize my filestore. Any other users of the most venerable iPaq having these issues?

[Myrddin]

Doesn't work on my ipaq hx2755. It installs fine, defaults to Activesync mode, lets me Activesync just fine. I switch to card mode and it doesn't work for anything then it won't let me switch back to Activesync mode. Also, If I tick the "use native mode" thing in the Preferences, the tick is gone next time I open preferences. :(

[Darius Wey]

It is much faster. I've measured between 5 and 7 times faster desktop -> SD writing with both my iPAQ 2210 and Pocket Loox 720. Reading is also faster, but "only" by a factor between 2 and 3.

Thanks Menneisyys for the benchmarks. I'd love to see if hx4700 users get faster read/write speeds due to its USB 2.0 support. Theoretically, it's possible, but practically, the improvements in speed may not be seen.

[atrain]

hmm....
linux makes using a pocket pc so much harder...

too bad it wont work with my axim x5.

[beq]

Does anyone remember which processor the i-mate PDA2k (aka Blue Angel aka XDA IIs) uses?

I really hope it's the same as the i-mate JAM, and that the developer is actively working to make both compatible with the program?

[Jeremiah]

I just installed it on my X50-mid and it works as advertised. I can second Alex's findings (http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=4262) that on an Axim X50 upload speed is ~640kbs and download speed ~768kbs... perhaps 10x as fast as when using ActiveSync!

Next question is do I still need ActiveSync? I don't even use Outlook...

[ipaq_wannabe]

i have an Axim x50v, and i cannot see the BIS...

i did set it up to use three cards - CF, SD, and BIS... however, to no avail - the BIS cannot be seen.

anyone else has an Axim? have you already tried this app and have connected to the BIS?

Tried to install it on my Siemens Sx66 (realizing that it might not work yet on this device) -

the installaiton program required me to do a soft reset (not surprising) - However, once I rebooted, I did not see the program installed - All I saw was what presented itself as a setup program, bt running it prompted me to uninstall...

Any guesses??

That's correct -

The icons in my lower right are for my WiFi, BT and PocketZen - same ones that were there before...

ce2.dll is being installed in my \WINDOWS directory, but I'm guessing the registry entries necessary to run the program aren't being installed properly.

Has anyone had any installation problems like this??

If you check the comparability list, it says it is for devices with Intel PXA25x and PXA27X. The XS66 has a PXA26X, does it not?

I installed this software on my iPaq hx4700. It allows me to access both SD and CF cards from my desktop, but not iPaq File Store.

Is there anything I can do to make it work for hx4700 (running Win XP Pro with latest service pack).

i guess we just have to wait until the developers come up with a fix - im sure many would be suggest/requesting access to their BIS

[GadgetMan]

Actually fast access to the File Store would be the only reason for me to buy this product. SD and CF cards work just fine with my Lexar card reader.

And even then not all PXA25x and 27x devices work with this!

Yeah, our JAMs are a good example of that, aren't they?!

[TMann]

For the small number of Mac-PocketPC users out there, I can confirm that this program allowed me to mount the SD and CF cards from my Axim x50v onto my Powerbook G4.

Unfortunately, as has already been noted, the program does NOT allow me to access the built-in storage on the Axim. Hmm...hopefully in an upcoming release. :)

Asus MyPal update:

I got a message from the developers saying that my issue (namely that, even though the processor of the MyPal A730W is the right sort, the program doesn't work) will be looked at for the next version.

So fifteen bucks for "We might get to it".

Bluh.

[carphead]

So I managed to get this to be able to boot a PC from it!!! :)

I've been carrying around for a while a 2 x 128MB SanDiskUSB Stick that has a Dos network client, a copy of a USB Linux Distrib. But I wondered if I could combine then using CardExport and setup a single USB Boot Device with a retractable Cable.

So far I've managed to get a copy of FreeDos and the network client from Bart to load. I'll try a Small Linux Distrib later.

I had to use a CF to IDE adaptor (doesn't everybody have one of these?) and a CF card that had IDE emulation (most good cards do) to get the OS onto it but it worked first time!

[Jereboam]

Ok, I'm on OS X Tiger (Powerbook) and although it works, there are hitches.

1. After successfully mounting the cards, I can copy/delete/move etc files on and of them. However, when I eject them I can no longer access them on the Pocket PC. A soft reset is all that brings them back...a deal breaker. I want to be able to drop files and go...not drop files, soft reset, and go.

2. Cosmetic issue, they are mounted as NO NAME and Untitled. If nothing else this is inconsistent.

This a 4700.

And Windows gives an unrecognised USB device error...

Here's hoping some of these issues get ironed out...

Edit: And there's definitely a problem with settings "sticking" across soft resets...

[opuntia]

I know not having to carry around an extra piece of hardware is the preference, but for those of you who have an SD slot and whose PPC won't work with this program, here's what I use:

http://www.lexar.com/readers/trio.html

I think I paid $10 for it off some website. If you think about it, using this software will also require you to carry around an USB cable...so it's basically a draw.

[Radimus]

I have one of those... but here is the real issue.

When wil the PPC manufacturers setup the devices with miniusb connectors, instead of the proprietary ones thay have now.


I'm looking at my Axim cable and I see about 32 pins in the connector, and last I saw USB has 4... Therefore whatever the connector does besides apply signals to multiple pins, could be done internal to the PPC. Just libe most cameras and blackberries


And USB cables are everywhere, all I'd need to carry is a usb A to mini adapter.. and possibly a retractible cable

Maybe, maybe not...

I typically travel with a USB sync/charge cable and a wall adapter with a USB port for charging. Granted, my tiny Sandisk USB SD card reader takes up essentially no extra room in my briefcase, but it is one more thing to keep track of (it is so easy to get lost!)

I think it is good to point out that this is just beta software, and a pretty early beta at that. The developer is aware of our problems with the x50v's and the small compatibility so far, and is working on it. This isn't some program that is stagnent on development, obviously, so we can all remain optomistic about the speed of release and features in the finished 1.0 product.

By the way, isn't it strange that we are supposed to pay for a beta-stage software? I tought that doing the guinea pig was the way of paying for this kind of soft (even MS gives free the beta-stage software!) :)

[MadBison]

Excelent. Any product that replaces the functionality? of that pice of CR@P that is MS activesync is a great thing. I wonder where they got the monkeys that designed and developed ActiveSync?

I have tried CardExport on the hx4700, and it works fine. 2 minutes 20 seconds to copy off a 48MB file. A little slow. But it is better than ActiveSync, which cannot even see the file store or Cards on my iPAQ. It can Sync fine, just not explore the drives on it. Something about "Critical communications failing to start, please try again". Does not matter how many times I soft reset, or reboot laptop. No can do. Add this to the complete no control black box that is ActiveSync, and the fact that it keeps duplicating my appointments and contacts every time I have to recover the PPC. Like I said, monkeys...

So my stats for this software on the hx4700:
CardExport: 0.34MB per sec
ActiveSync: 0.00MB per sec.

Looks like they will have an official JAM compatible version out in a few days :)

[hamishmacdonald]

I'm pleasantly surprised that the developers are working on revisions to this program so quickly.

I suppose it *is* a beta and some of us have already paid for it, but I'm used to programs being released then left unchanged for a long time.

There's a new version up already (2.01) that solves some of the installation issues that I had, though it still doesn't work on my MyPal. But they've written to tell me that they've got a hold of one and will be posting another update soon.

I like developers like this. If this is how fast and responsive they're going to be, they can have my money up-front!

[danielzr]

"New devices support: HTC Magician (I-Mate Jam, Qtek S100, T-Mobile MDA Compact, O2 XDA II Mini), ASUS A730W, Dell Axim X30 and more. "

Complete list is available on the product's page:
http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/

It now works fine on my X30 - although it doesn't see the internal "Built In Storage".

[hamishmacdonald]

w00t! It works on my Asus MyPal A730W now!

[Phillip Dyson]

No Toshibas mentioned. Any of my brethren in isolation tried it yet?

[ctmagnus]

Just an fyi for any iPaq 5550 users: version 2.02 now works with these devices. However, there is still the file store issue that has been mentioned.

[danielzr]

I emailed them regarding not being able to see the Built in Storage on my Axim X30 and they said that they can only create access to FAT filesystems. Some PDAs do not use FAT for their Built in Storage.

I have no idea whether that's the case with your model.

[danielzr]

To use it with Windows 98, I was emailed the below instructions from Tech Support (there are similar instructions listed with the Palm product):

Please download driver here:
http://www.softick.com/files/cardexport-win98.zip You should extract
driver archive contents to any preferrable folder, then point to this
location when Win98 will ask for a driver. After driver installation that
folder with unpacked archive could be deleted. If your system don't ask
for a driver, so CardExport device is marked as unknown and placed into
device manager. In this case you should delete all unknown devices (with
yellow question marks) and connect CardExport again, then Win98 will ask
for a driver.

[beq]

It's awesome that the JAM (PXA27x) is now supported.

But I'm curious why the PXA26x (ie. PDA2k) is not supported, when the PXA25x and PXA27x are supported? Seems kind of strange that the previous generation processor and the subsequent generation are supported, but that they skip support for the middle generation processor?

Have they indicated at all if they plan to add support for the PXA26x in the future, or is it technically impossible for some reason?

[ctmagnus]

Version 2.02 beta-supports the PXA26x. From the site (http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/):

[2005-06-17]
Card Export II PPC 2.02 released.
...
Beta support for PXA 26x profile.

[beq]

^ That's great news, thanks ctmagnus! :D

[ctmagnus]

'Welcome!

[follick]

Version 2.02 does not work on my Toshiba e805

[Cotytto]

Wow!!! All I can say is Wow!!! (and then, of course, everything else to explain why "Wow!" is Wow!!!)

This works great!!!

I will definitely buy this when it is released out of beta. I might even buy it now, but I would like some confirmation that there will be free updates to the retail version out of beta with a purchase today. I am a little leary about buying now because that issue is not very clear on the website.

Anybody else feel this way?

Anyhoot, what a great product! I've played movies on my Axim x30h SD card on other computers without Active Sync and it works flawlessly. I can take my class notes from Pocket Word and put them on just about any computer with USB (first save to a regular word document in Pocket Word). There was absolutely no way for me to do these tasks before.

I love this product! This will make my PDA even more invaluable to my college life! Try it now! It's grrrrrrrrrrrrreat!!!

[hogger_jeff]

I installed this on my x50v and then fretted over it for hours because I couldn't find out how to work it. No doc's on the developer's web site, no doc's included with the software. It was driving me nuts. I'd plug into my own computer and get ActiveSync up. I'd plug into the kid's computer and get an "unrecognized USB device" message. :evil: I finally searched this thread and saw something about an icon in the lower right of the screen. Sure enough, there it was, hidden by the Krusell case...! :oops: Works great. I think I'll wait for the alpha version before I pay, though. Hopefully the few bugs that exist will be gone by then.

[welovejesus]

I just installed Card Export II on my new Axim X50v and found a conflict with Sentry 2020 for Pocket PC (http://www.softwinter.com/sentry_ce.html). The Card Export II program kept Sentry 2020 for Pocket PC from mounting the virtual volume. It could be that programs that attempt to mount a virtual volume will have issues. I just sent in a request to ensure compatibility between such programs.

I just verified that it works on the e830.

I just installed this on my Axim x50v, and it works great!

One thing worth noting that might already be mentioned, is that you can't see your memory card from the PDA, if you are connected to the PC using Card Export. As soon as you disconnect, bam ,it's there!

I agree, I'm using it on my Imate Jam phone so I've got 1Gb SD storage always available wherever I go!

Bought it in less than 5 minutes! :)

The only issue I've encountered now, is that my 1 GB lexar SD is no longer showing up as such. I get a drive letter that says "Removable Disk" and that's it. When I click on it, it tells me to "please enter a disk into drive H:".

The CF card works fine, and the SD was working fine yesterday. :cry:

update: Found that the SD still works fine in one windows profile. When I switch users (on the desktop) is when I have trouble with the SD.
