/sdcard/download

its on the sdcard. Sdcard/download
[EDIT:] Jashu beat me to it lol.

what if there was no SD card in it? i have one but there is no /download dir... i have downloaded 2 pics im trying to locate but cant find it anywhere
EDIT:
and i have astro FM but cant find them with a search either

should be under your download folder.

do *.jpg images not actually get downloaded? i downloaded an mp3 and it created and went to the /download dir, but then i downloaded the image again and still not showing up in that folder...

Yea they do, but sometimes it acts weird. I tried dl a mp3 earlier and kept getting jacked up.

well figured it out. it seems that stuff downloaded from myxer.com is the problem. anyone know why downloaded media from myxer dont show up in the downloaded folder, and where it does go if anywhere?

Are you sure it freezes? Mine just takes *ages* to finish that stage.
But yes, delete that folder and you'll be able to rebuild your library from scratch.

Delete the folder (that he said above) via file explorer. You can usually find the folder in the root of your storage card. Works everytime. G/L.
unable to find the hidden folder WMDRM, used the search program on my phone asnd still no luck . do i have to sync my tilt and delete it thru the cpu.
If you are using the standard file explorer, make sure that you have the "show all files" option switched on.
i wish it was that simple
yeah it is. win i pulled up winrar to un rar a file i saw it as a folder but i can't get to it. still haven't sync phone, @ wrk
If it 1 thing its another

after this it updating says it found 2087 files but only adds the file save to the phone not the memory card. doeas this sound familiar to any one
yeah use Total Commander or another "good" file explorer. & remove the "WMDRM" folder... it should be in the root folder of your SD card...
even then, if you have a TON of mp3's you may have to wait 5 minutes while it updates... I've had to reboot when it freezes & its hard to tell when its just taking forever & when its frozen :S
If that STILL doesn't work, try putting your files back on your desktop computer, then put your SD card in your computer, and re-transferring them that way.
Hope that helps

MP3 Trimmer

Please correct me if I am mistaken here. But, I think that AT&T took out the MP3 Trimmer program on the Fuze because I can't find it anywhere on mine. Does anyone have this on theirs? Where can I download this program and how can I install this? Thanks!

Just copy it to your phone and run it. (Double-click in File Explorer) Once it's installed, it will show up in your programs group.
Which folder do I have to put it in. Does it have to be a specific folder? Thanks again.

No, you can put the cab file anywhere. When you run it, it will install the program in the correct place.
I ran the setup xml file via opera using the file explorer on the phone and nothing is happening. Am I doing something wrong here?

Don't extract CAB's content by WinRAR or similar. Just copy the CAB file to your phone and run it from File Explorer on your mobile.

change camera_click.ogg

ok guys.... here is where im at... i wanted to replace the camera click sound to the sound of the camera from texas chainsaw massacre.... i just like the way it sounds... i downloaded the file, converted it to .ogg renamed it camera_click.ogg but i am not sure what to do from here. i know i need to unzip the apk, replace the file, zip it again, and sign the file, but i have no clue where to begin on that. any help would be appreciated guys!
PS- i attached the .ogg file just remove the .zip to listen to it. also, if anyone just wants to try to tackle job that would rock as well
where did the ogg come from? (as in what location)
You should just be able to push it back using the terminal
cp /sdcard/nameoffile.apk /new/location/

the ogg is packed inside of camera.apk----- system/app/camera.apk
inside the apk, it is camera/res/raw/camera_click.ogg
i know i need to replace the .ogg file, once i do this do i just zip it back up, sign and push the new .apk to my phone?
running jacxrom btw

i want to try it, but im too chickensh** to try it right now, got class in the morning and i dont wanna spend tonight wiping my phone and setting things back up if it doesnt work right lol
question... once i edit the files i need to, i zip back up and it is named as zip... do i just change .zip to .apk and voila its changed and able to push to my phone or am i missing something here?
so i got the file replaced, but when i try to push/install back to my phone through adb i get install parse error. i tried using stericsons autosign util but no luck getting it working on my computer at the moment. if i upload the zip of the camera with the file replaced can someone sign and upload it back here again so i can use it? I would appreciate it.
EDIT---I got it signed and installed, but none of the sounds from the camera app play when i take a picture. Any idea as to why this may be?

Don't zip it. Open the apk with winrar and drag and drop in the new sound, it should remain as an apk. At this point you can try pushing it as it is. If it doesn't work then sign it, and make sure the method you're using works for apks (some are only for update.zip). If that adds a .zip on the end, remove it.

Yeah, I'm 99% sure that the length is the problem, just due to the way the app is programmed to load sounds. Wouldn't hurt to make it the same bit rate.

To add fof song, put them in "TapsOfFire/songs" folder on sdcard.
"Setting" & "Help" are not yet implemented, it's only 0.2 version but the dev (Dmitry.Skiba) promise new version soon.
Great game!!! I have a bit lag on the end of demo music, but in general works fine.
there is no "TapsOfFire" folder on the sdcard. Do I have to create one? Or is it in the apk file? Thanks alot.
Edit: nvm...i figured it out! lol. I just had to extract the files and make them folders

sorry..i shouldn't have said 'zip' folders. This goes for all people who had the same issue that I might have had.
I just got the song files from the internet and then put them on the root of my sdcard first. Then made the folder "TapsOfFire" on the root of my sdcard, opened it, made a "songs" folder in that. Then I took all the songs that I had downloaded, which were showing up as a "77" type file thing, and then put them into the "songs" folder within the "TapsOfFire" folder. Then I went, one by one, and double-clicked all the songs, which gave me the option to extract them. And they showed up as folders when they were extracted. So I just deleted the original "77" type file thing that they were in, and then vwala!
I opened up the Taps of Fire game, and the songs I had downloaded into the "songs" folder showed up.
Hope it helps out anyone who was having problems!
this is awesome!
Whats the best site to get songs for this?

also to add to this:
if you already have fretsonfire on your computer, then go to the folder where your songs are stored and just copy/paste whatever song-folders you want into TapsOfFire/songs

Anyone want to backup and pull the apk off their phone? Please
**EDIT** It does look like he took it off for ADC.
"Please test! It is last public version before ADC submission!"
** DOUBLE EDIT **
Looks like the last version up was 7, but here is a link to version 2. I'm sure it's way buggy, but might be worth checking out.

HTC TYTN ii

Hi,
Ive just recently got this phone from my brother, and i am adding videos etc to it successfully.
I want a good alarm tone. I have converted an MP3. file to .wav . I then added it into the windows folder. I click the main clock, click the little bell, and open the drop down list for alarm tone.
As soon as i click the tone i added to the phone, it automatically switches back to the default tone.
How do i get my normal tone, because the other ones just wont wake me up.
cheers
Have attached GAlarm it's not the newest version as it's now a pay for app, but it's far more reliable than the Windows Alarm and also very easy to set up.
Hi thanks. How do i install this?
Sorry, kinda new to things like this. I havnt bought the phone off my brother yet, so dont want to mess anything up by installing it wrong.
Help is appreciated

Unzip it on computer you will find a .cab place onto phone via async or cardreader, then with File Explorer on phone find the .cab click on it, install to device memory, in start menu will be GAlarm click it, it will promp restart, restart phone.
Now you can set up alarm
Thanks
I unzipped it to pc. opened the file, and there is another zip folder. Do i just unzip that again, drag the 1 cab file across through async, and it will install?
EDIT: Sorry for repost.
There isnt a .cab file in there when i have extracted the 2nd zip.
There is just a load of windows files ending in .152 etc
Also an xml file. Is this what you mean?

The second file is a .cab it's just that it's a compressed file so shows up as same looking, the file you extracted from original .zip do not unzip it place on phone and follow above directions

Yes yes im very stupid. I just saw it as another zip file. Looked at windows bar @ bottom and it said GAlarm.cab i was like...... .cab .
Installing it now. Shall tell you if it works Thanks
Update: Going through installation process now. Said it may not function properly due to it being made for a previous version of windows mobile. Carried on anyway. Loaded up app and forced restart. Booted it up and got another error. Booted it up for 3rd time and created my first alarm .
P.S Is there anyway of getting just my alarm on the main screen, without the added buttons? (Contacts, ringtones) etc.
Sorry for spam.
All done and added.
All i can say is thank you very much. Youve been a great help to me and im sure to come back when ive bought the phone, and feel more confident with installing new programs.
thanks
