With my W800i had some problems getting the 1gig but got it after a while. Showed up as 1gig, but however when i tried to copy more than 512 to phone my XP crashed.
After some time i decided to go back to 512 but not the easyest thing to do.
Realy want to format the hole phone even its working ok now but then i lose my contacts.
Any know if its possible to backup phonebook and lay backup back again after format?
Thumbs up for those who can get it work but il rather buy a larger memory card later.

Thanks Tervel! It worked and I've my card back at 512MB 
Don't plan to make any changes to it now...but maybe I'll attempt to expand it again in the future  Anyway, I think that each card is an individual that responds differently to the same method. What do you guys think? |

I have that MemStick card and it works fine (Transparent green/yellow colored). It was just a marketing gimmick to sell MemStick to PSP users I think |

What about the info that is in the files on the memorystick
(ProdInfo.txt and MemStickInfo.txt)? Could they be changed?
I have a 512 MB original W800i memory and i have that extra partion but haven't tried anyting written in this thread.
These lines in prodinfo.txt is interesting:
MemoryStickRev=R11A
MemoryStickCapacity=490741760
MemoryStickType=PRO

OMG, it works!
Last night I turned my SanDisk MSD Pro 512 MB into 963 MB capacity.
Great job.
Thanks.

It doesn't work, I mean you can format it to have 933MB but you cant copy anything larger than 500 (4xx something close to 500), I think it’s a glitch. When I try to copy anything above 500 I get an IO error and the drive letter disappears from the explore so nothing can be done after that, even the phone cant detect the memory card.
However anything under 500MB works, the moment you try to go over 500MB that’s the end of it...
Restarting the phone makes the memory card to reappear but you can't do anything to files that are already there. Finally I had to format it using the phone to get it working again…. So much for making a 512 card a 1Gig

You can't use a MemStick Pro on the phone, it's too long and not designed to go into a K750. The MemStick Duo and Pro Duo are the ones you can use. So I assume you're asking should you get just a Duo or a Pro Duo, I'd have to say - get the Pro Duo. Also - I've read something here that SanDisk makes the MemSticks for Sony anyways, besides, the phone comes with a SanDisk adapter. |

Ok, Im not too bothered if my card fcuks up, so I have attempted this with 3 different cards (512) but never get any unallocated space showing in disk manager. (Im using a memery card slot).
I am aware how to do it once the unallocated space is showing, but how can I get the PC to show this space.
Can anybody explain how they managed to get this viewable. Thanks.
Im using a P910 and Windows Xp.
Cheers

You have to use the phone as the card reader

NO problem, but I cant see my card for some reason, and when I go into the sync software I can only see the phone memory...
