Memory Card Locked! Pls help by begood1: 6:34pm On Jun 11, 2008
Hello Phone gurus,
Please advise me on this.
I just passworded my memory card, when i switched it off, and powered it again, i entered the password but it keeps requesting for a password.
All data save on the card is no longer accessible.
Please can anyone advise if their is a default code for unlocking a Memory card
Re: Memory Card Locked! Pls help by honsule(m): 6:50pm On Jun 11, 2008
guy,there is nothing like default code.if you don't know the password you used that is the end.although to every general rule there is an exception.a friend of mine had the same problem like yours.he just format the memory card.note:you will lose all your stuffs on the MMC.Cheers.

Re: Memory Card Locked! Pls help by honsule(m): 7:46pm On Jun 11, 2008
you don't need any card reader.when my friend couldn't remember the password he used.i personally gave him my card reader and we inserted the MMC into the card reader and connect it to a laptop,it couldn't even open let alone read anything.just format with your phone ok.but their might be a problem when you want to back up.that is why i asked you of your phone model and you kept mute.am off.i have exam tomorrow.bye.

Wats ur fone model
Re: Memory Card Locked! Pls help by DualCore1: 8:13pm On Jun 11, 2008
well i just put a password on my MMC now and formatted it (hoping it was going to ask for password), the silly thing formatted angry
yea ur phone will format the MMC, but formatting the MMC from phone doesnt remove the password, cuz i still had to unlock the MMC with the password even after formatting with phone.

Re: Memory Card Locked! Pls help by maxjax(m): 9:55pm On Jun 11, 2008
OR

Retrieve lost MMC password

1. Open file explorer. (SeleQ, FExplore, AppMan, whatever')
2. search for MMCSTORE
3. when you find it, send it to your PC
4. on PC, open the file with Notepad, or any word processor
5. there goes your password

FExplorer





Increase Your MMC Storage Space

Your files in MMC are stored in multiple (disk) blocks so if you format using 16K block, the space used will be 16K eventhough your file is just 1K.

If you buy MMC, it is usually preformatted with 16K block. Therefore, alot of space is wasted as most installed program files are usually less than 2K.

You will need a card reader to do this:-

1. Connect card reader and copy all your files in the MMC to computer disk. (Make sure you set the show all/hidden/os files to 'on')
2. Do a format of the MMC using command line 'format' and use the /A=size option.

Alternative, you can use the Disk Management in Adminstrative Tools to format. Make sure you select FAT.
For 256MB MMC, smallest block you can use is 4K, 128MB is 2K, 64Mb is 1K and 32MB is 512B. (Note: You cannot use the phones 'format MMC' to do this as the format just clear the allocation table and does not change the block size)

3. Copy back all files to MMC.

Now you will find that you will have more space.
256MB MMC got back 30+ MBs

Do this at your own risk!

Well. . . . . When my younger sis had the same problem, she came to meet me. . . . . . . . And asked me to help her. . . At first i thought it was a dream, cuz . . . . .I was the last person my younger sis would come 2 for assistance . . . . . . In any problem at all. . .
So I abused her with the best abusive words I could think of.
I was so happy cuz the score board was now
5-4. . . . .

End of part 1 (watch out for part 2). .

Re: Memory Card Locked! Pls help by begood1: 1:54pm On Jun 12, 2008
I just met a guy who was able to format the MMC on my phone,
after that, i powered the phone only to see that the MMC was showing that its corrupt,
i tried to format it again but it wasnt going thru.
As i powered the phone again, the phone was taking ages to boot,
I went back to the guy and he told me that the MMC password affected the phone and the phone would need to be Flashed.
I doubt that because i removed the MMC and phone worked very well.

Pls can any guru confirm this?
Re: Memory Card Locked! Pls help by Kaybaba5(m): 2:29pm On Jun 12, 2008
mr man,why cant u use card reader to format and besides i dont think password can hamper phone booting may be another thing has happened to the phone.if i may get u right,u format the mmc in another phone and it works but when u inserted it into ur phone it says mmc is corrupt.dis thing na serious matter ,dont u know dat am waiting 4u just 2 know ur outcome b4 i proceed on my own too.
Re: Memory Card Locked! Pls help by topeteadr(m): 2:47pm On Jun 12, 2008
Just try the procedure above. . . . . . And i dont get you.
Did you 4get ur passwrd or ur phone is rejecting the correct passwrd . . . . . .
I suggest u scan ur phone 4 virus . . . . Then change ur security level to memory and reboot ur phone. . . .



Or open ur mmc with a card reader. . . . . . . . . . Open all the openables using wordpad and look 4 ur passwrd in it. . . . . . . . . . . .
