Hi all,
this may be a repeat, but haven't managed to find the solution to my problem anywhere else on the forum:
-5day old K750i
-latest (yesterday) firmware
-phone still does not read MS Duo Pro (or rather does occasionally, then crashes)
-the stick works perfectly on my P910 and PC card reader
-SE support has not replied to e-mails I sent both prior and post upgrading the firmware
...starting to think this phone was a really bad purchase...
Any ideas or help very welcome!
(not to mention problems with the PC software, but those could be related to the co-existence of the P910 suite on the same PC)
Cheers,
Niko |

i think it's a buggy phone, as the memory stick is being successfully read by your P910 and your card reader... try borrowing/getting another memory stick and try it on your phone to see if the phone is really the culprit... 
SE T68i (Feb2004-May2004)
SE T610 (Sep2004-Jun2005)
SE K700i (Jun2005-Sep2005)
SE S700i (Sep2005-Present) |

Does sound like the phone but as mentioned above try another duo if you can to confirm what the problem really is.

Thanks guys...
Tried another (non-pro) duo and it works fine. Tried my pro in another K750i (although with a much older firmware) and the smae problem occured (won't read the card).
I'm really puzzled by this one... will probably end up taking the phone back... |

Ok, so here's the answer (or at least what works):
The K750i does NOT support HighSpeed MS Duo Pro (which was my old one)
Got a replacement phone from SE, bought a non-HighSpeed stick and it works fine! Tried the HighSpeed, and crashed again!
If you invest in a Pro stick, make sure it is not HighSpeed...
My two cents worth of wisdom

Here is my case if you think it might apply to you.
I have a Sandisk 2GB MS Pro Duo (regular version, it's faster than Sony High-speed btw). It worked perfectly on the my W800i. However, I put it into my card reader and write some files. My W800i didn't recognize it again, but it worked fine on card reader and my PSP.
I need to reformat it using my W800i and worked again. If I only use my phone to write files to the memory stick, there will be no problem. Everytime I use a card reader to write a file, the phone will not recognize it. I didn't notice this problem when I still had the 1GB. |
