The Search-button is a 'Powerful Medicine'
Hi, there 3 good lucking answers to your question in other forum threads, I think.They look good, at least:
Try 'bluetooth storage card' on the search function on the upper right corner of this side.
I hope, it works for you, sounds good. I prefer to change files via bluetooth-ftp and the bluetooth explorer and store it directly, wherever I want.

i can't find it, and i've been searching for well over a week on the forum. a little help, please?

the voice files come in three parts the .vif the .chk and .bmp you need all 3 of the files of the corisponding voice to put into the voice folder thats in your root directory on you sd card
as said above make sure you have all 3 files, create a directory in the root of your microsd card called voices and then paste the 3 files into it. Open TomTom and go to the change voices under the settings and then scroll right until you find the voice you added.
I use version 6.010 because it allows me to have the changed data.chk file in the main tomtom dir which then has the speed camera warning voice of liz whitaker rather than the bell chime moo etc.

I need some more help here. I have spent hours fighting with this.
I installed TomTom from my MicroSD card and told it to install to device. Which it did. I have tried putting the voice files in the root of the SD card, tried putting them in a folder called voices in the root, I think I have tried them in every conceivable place on the device itself and can't get it to work. I accidentally got a Yoda voice to work but now can't figure out where I put the voice file to make it work. I had to flash my rom and now that voice is gone too. Is there a TomTom FAQ someplace on the net that people can go over.
Does this help?:

Hi there,
I also had the same problem, when I first bought my kaiser. There was a thread here in this forum telling how to rectify it. I vaguely remember going to the start>settings>connections>bluetooth. Then enabling the blue tooth explorer before installing the voices did the trick. But Now I did a hard reset and the problem is back again. So if u could find the solution please post it here...I couldnt find the orginal post.
Please check this thread..

Download it directly from kaiser by clicking on the tomtom plus services.
It you have a problem with TomTom seeing new voices you added, then you have to delete the reference file in the voice directory TomTom uses to organize the different voices. Once you delete this file (sorry I forget what it is called), then on the next launch, TomTom should see all of your new voices.
All I had to do was put the 3 files for each voice I wanted into the voice folder. This folder is located in the "my device" > "program files" > "navigator" > "voices". Then when you start the program, go to the voice preference settings. It will ask you if you want to use voices in your language or all languages. Choose "all languages". Scroll backwards through the voices and before long you should see the voices that you added to the folder.
This is driving me up the wall...
I'm going nuts.
I can't figure out how to change my text message tone...

try saving it as .wav on your \windows dir
Umm...look above....lol... gues i was too wordy....
Thought I'd take a chance with this one. First what format is the media type you are working with. I have found under sounds and notifications -- >Start >Settings > Sounds and Notifications is where you have the granularity to make some choices. First you have to make sure a .wav format of the file exists in the correct Windows folder of your mobile OS to be able to use the file (*hint locate the names of the default sounds listed in the S&N dropdown list*). Took me about a week to realize that i was bound by M$ file types (.wav). If you need to convert a file from one format to another there are an assundry of apps to look at, but i recommend a look at audacity (only for quick learning curve and open source app).
Hope this provides some insight. As I am using a rom i found on this forum i don't remember the default path for a Kaiser or AT&T tilt anymore. Locating the file browser via activesync should provide more help in locating where the file should reside.
Don't toss the phone or if you want to sling it my way, wy wife could use the device (best I have had to date IMHO).
Cheers and good luck.
For the record, WAV and MIDI files will only work if they are in the \windows\ directory in the root of your device. This confused me when I first got my Tilt because my Wizard would see them in \My Documents\ on my SD card.
Not sure about wavs or midis, but it will use MP3s off of the storage card.
I'm using L26 v5 ROM and the MP3s in the Mp3 directory on my SD card root all show up under selectable ring tones.
Yeah as ringtones. But not text message tones, correct?
@Renegade503 we welcome your eagerness to learn about your device. But your flooding our board with n00bish questions, and repeatedly posting about stuff you can find in the manual sooo
RTFM ...
Just in case you dont understand what that means, and so you dont make another post asking what it means, i will just tell you..
Read The F**king Manual
Please Please Please do some reading on this site and on others, you might want to start with howardforums.com so that you may get a better grip on just what kind of phone you have. You can also read our wiki that has a wealth of information. Most people on here is not going to spoon feed you the answers.
i'm not a mod but maybe combine his threads into one?
The G1 has a silence mode, but it unfortunately only silences ringers and notifications. If I want to play a game of Solitaire I am blasted in the face with stupidly loud music. Is there a system-wide switch to just disable ALL sound through the built in speaker?
Go to setting -> sounds & display -> media volume bring then it all the was down you should be able to map a. Shortcut to this with anycut.
Hope this helps
Ringtone/Notification Questions
Is there any way to put your own ringtones on the phone through a storage card like on the wing or other windows mobile phones, I just got the phone and am playing with it right now ad so far don't see no way to do this. If there's a way can someone please help.
I added 2 tones from my wing to the memory card from the G1. Placed them on the root of the card and then installed from the market "Rings Extended". Then selected them.
download the rings extended app. that will let you do what you want.
google market: rings extended
+1 rings extended.
I had a stale page load and the two previous posters beat me to it!
-- edit --
also, fwiw, with 'rings extended' I found that the media listing was recursive as I had an entire directory structure from my wm6 phone. So, you can still have categorized directory structures if you like.
if you use the correct folder structure there will be no problems setting up the ringtones

Alternatively you can just go to the music player, choose a song and press " use as ringtone".
First off, what helped me the most- connect the phone to a pc and enable the usb on the g1. When it pops up (it will look like a mass storage device on the pc) format it and then create these folders at the root of the storage card:
music
ringtones
alerts
notifications
Anything inside music will show up on the music player. Anything outside should not show up anywhere but where it is placed. If you do not format the card first, this will not be the case at least in my experience. Formatting seems to make it all work right.
The folder structure is taken from the tmobile website online instruction manual- cant remember the page

While true, it also means you may have a bunch of ringtones and alerts mixed in with your music, something I dont like
for the record:
/sdcard/media/audio/ringones
etc
works as well, as does
/sdcard/media/video
for video files.
good to know about the alternative folder layouts
what are you using to play video files? I grabbed the "video player" on the market but curious to know what others are using.
Thanks a lot guys, you were very helpful.

put stuff into the folders. uncheck the USB box on the phone (you lose the PC connection at that point). Now your phone can find stuff.

having trouble
ok so i need some help xda-ers!!!
i had the wing. i took my 2GB card and put it in the g1. i connected it to my pc running xp and changed the names of my folders to what was recommended. maybe i should have made new folders altogether is the issue? i can try that. anyway... it's not working... i go into settings to set ringtones and i cant set anything except the stock ones.
is the issue that i didnt make brand new folders and just changes the names?
or do i need to take everything off the card, reformat it, and start fresh?
thnx!

in my experience, this is exactly what you need to do. Format it on the pc while its in the phone using the data cable.
Hi there. I have had my Nexus One for a week now, and so far im finding it ok - I havent really used it much though. Anyway, I have a few basic questions which are really confusing me, but I know could be simply answered by all you Pro's
Anyway, here is what I want to be able to do. What I want to do is be able to make/select my own Icons to open up applications or folders..
1: Have an Icon/picture of a game controller (or something which symbolises gaming) Then when you click on the Icon it opens a folder full of my games.
2: Have an Icon of something which symbolises Pictures. When you click on the Icon it will open up my gallery.
I Currently have Desktop Visualizer. I know with that you can select a picture and then select what you want to open with that. But I dont know how to make it so that it opens a folder when clicking not an application??
Do I need a different application? Also, Do I download the pictures/Icons on my PC then put them over to my SD Card, or just get them straight on my phone?
Last question, If I want to combine two images (Lets say for example two different types of controllers) into the one image, What software on my pc/application on my phone would I need?
Sorry if that doesnt make sense, its as english as I can make it. All help is greatly appreciated
Get Bettercut or FolderOrganizer. Look for them in the market. They will allow you to customize your app's icons and shortcuts. You should read up on how to use it, it's pretty simple so I'm not going to write it here.
The best way is to download and install "icon Packs" apk's (there are so many on here and on the markets, BIG THANKS TO THE MANY CREATIVE PEOPLE OUT THERE.). It works very well with the above apps.
to download pictures/icons on your pc to the sdcard:
1. download ASTRO file manager (free)
2. connect your phone to pc via usb, then turn on connection (make sure you have usb debugging turned on)
3. once you are connected, then your sd card becomes a "removable storage drive" and you can just copy & paste any files from your pc to the card like you would if you had an external drive.
I don't know if you want to use your phone to combine images or pictures. it will be pretty hard with the controls. i would say do it on your pc and then just transfer it over to the phone.
Thank you Thank you Thank you. Using Folder Organiser now and is exactly what I wanted. Thanks heaps for everything

How to check how much memory used on HD7?
I can't find anywhere on the phone on how to check how much memory I have used.
Its very silly that they haven't put explorer on the phone, but there must be a way?.... Please tell me if anyone knows.
you can go to settings on your phone and on the HD7 you can hit ABOUT and up pops phone info and right there at bottom is total storage which for my HD7 says 14.63GB then right after it gives available storage,plus you can get available storage on phone when using Zune with it syncing on your computer.I dont know if its posted on here already but here is a link on how to use your device for USB Mass Storage and yes it does work if you need to carry extra stuff around with you BUT you will not be able to directly access from the phone only good in helping keeping everything from going to "THE CLOUD" http://www.ditii.com/2010/11/18/how-to-turn-your-windows-phone-7-into-a-usb-mass-storage-drive/
