Backup of 'My Flash Disk' only 470kB?

Just starting out on an F900BT. Copied to a 4GB SDHC without error, but it only took 5 minutes, and copied about half a gig.

 

So, rebooted into TestMode again and looked around the device. In Windows Explorer, selecting the device and FIle->Properties reveals it is only 460kB?

 

Is this something to do with 3.02 firmware? Or am I going crazy in today's heat?

 

 

 

(also having hassles verifying if memory usage changes are sticking:

but at least I'm not the only one)

You did something wrong! It should be aproximately 1.8 GB. You have to make sure that there is no interuptions during the copy process. I usually copy it on my way to work, which takes me an hour. This way, there is no interuptions and I dont have to have the car running for 30-45 minutes

Something wrong? Maybe - it's happening more and more as I get older :-)

 

 

1) I will try different target drives (e.g. USB flash), but there were no errors, and Copy, click, Paste is a fairly simple operation, so I'm still stumped.

 

2) I will try to take a photo of the screen on the device, but why would the AVIC's internal drive also only report 460K?

Is there possibly a version of the firmware or maps or something that is that small?

 

 

Does WindowzCE have view options? (like don't show hidden files) Does it skip copying hidden directories?
