I have this Mp3 player and have been using it for almost 3 years. First on a T68I and now on a T637. Never had any problems...except one of the ear pices going bad which was easily fixed by soldering another one. The player will take 128 and I do believe up to 1 gig (yes there are 1 gig MMC out there...google search) One issue I do have and I hope someone can help with this. Over the years the plastic tabs which lock the player into the phone has become weak so now just the slightest pressure will cause it to lose connection. Does anyone know of a way to strenthen the tabs so I can get a firn connection? |

Your MMC 128/256/512 DON'T WORK?? READ THIS!
Do you get the message "Insert Music Card" when your card is inserted?
I just found out how to make these problematic MMC cards work.
Here's what to do: You must format the card using 16K clusters size.
To do this, insert your MMC in your USB or PCMCIA adaptor (mine is PCMCIA). Go to ..
Control Panel (WinXp/2000) > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Management
(THIS WILL NOT WORK IF YOU GO THROUGH MY COMPUTER AND RIGHT-CLICK THE DRIVE LETTER)
You'll see some sort of graphic showing each one of your drives and partitions.
Select the graph assigned to your MMC drive letter.
Right click it and select format.
Before starting the process you must change some options: Select FAT, put any name in the volume name, and the most important, Cluster size 16K.
Click Format and...Voilá the card will work just fine!
Hope it helps a lot of people who bought a larger MMC and got pissed off when found out it didn't work.

To fix the loose adapter connections:
/"\
Imagine this is the sideview of your HPM-10 connector (just the very top of it). This is the loose connector right? Actually there are four of them but this is the sideview so you can see only the first one. What you have to do is press the spot where i represented by the double quotes firmly along the table's edge, all the four connectors at the same time. Don't push too much though, you'll be able to see the connector getting a little "fatter". When you connect it again it will work just fine.
Cheers!
