Default Formatting SD Card

I've recently gotten a 4GB card for my 650, and I'm just wondering if there are any good guides out there as to how to format it to utilize the entire space, as the way the phone formatted it for me only gives me 1.7GB of space. Thanks for any help!

Hi chaos:

If you have a 650 I am afraid you have overbought. The 650 can only use up to a 2gb card and I believe that is why you only see the 1.7 (usable). Only the newest Treo models can use a 4 gigger...

You may be able to find a ROM hack that might allow use of the larger capacity, but done wrong you could wind up with a very expensive paperweight. I am also not sure if anyone has done a hack like that.

Alright, I installed a Custom Rom with the FAT32 Prc, and reformatted my card, and I still have only 1.7 GB of space? What's up?

I just plugged mine in and it worked. Yours probably will too.
