Can someone else with a Milestone please test something for me?
For some obscure reason if I switch on my phone with WiFi enabled and in range of a known wireless LAN, the memory card becomes completely unavailable to apps on the phone. If I reboot with either WiFi off or out of range of a known AP, the memory card works correctly.
If I plug my USB cable into my phone and set it up for Memory Card access, I get the same behaviour, so for some reason the phone is equating the two conditions.
I already sent my phone to Motorola once to have the firmware re-flashed, so I know it is installed correctly. This phone is NOT rooted.
Wireless AP: Netgear WNR3500L, set up in b/g/n mixed mode with WPA2-PSK AES.
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Build: SHOLS_U2_02.36.0
- Set up a wireless AP (Mine uses WPA2-PSK, not sure if it's relevant)
- Make sure you can browse over it
- Check your memory card (Settings -> SD Card & Phone storage) - Total and Available space should show reasonable values
- Leaving Wifi on, reboot your phone
- Repeat 3, mine shows both as Unavailable
- Switch WiFi off, reboot phone
- Repeat 3, should now show correct values
