I have no idea of how to use this..
There are hits everywhere and technical articles on what xda-uc does.. but..
I don't see anything on HOW TO MAKE the files necessary for this program to do what it's supposed to do.
Energy is great.. love the rom..
he just build a new EXPORTER tool which exports alot of settings.
SO.. i have some reg settings i want to apply EVERY TIME.. i know the settings.. i know where they are and what they do.. now.. how do i MAKE a file in this xda_uc folder on my storage card? do i just open up notepad on my windows desktop and save it as a .reg file?
what about email accounts? how do i auto configure them every time i flash?
i know to put cabs in the folder or the SD subfolder if i want control over where they get installed.. and thats about all i know.
what about ringtones? notification tones? how do i auto configure them?
Perhaps you would get more answers here.

Anyone know how to make the Windwos folder vivible so I can easily get to the RINGS folder fron Explore in ActiveSync. It's marked as hidden and a system folder in RESCO EXPLORER. When I uncheck the boxes in Properties and go back in to look they have not changed. Does anyone know if there is another registry setting to make this viible?
Ta!

Windows folder is always visible, the last folder under My Device is Windows and it definitely is not hidden,anyway which rom are you using?
Using the standard ROM from Orange and it's definitely NOT visiable from within explorer on my PC...it is from the Trinity but its attibutes are hidden and that's why the PC cannot see it. And as I said if I change the attibs and take the HIDDEN off... it puts it back on again (or doesn't take it off)
You cannot change the attributes of the windows folder.
If you change the explorer settings on the PC so as to display hidden files and folders, then you will be able to see it.
Dohh! Stupid me of course..THANKS!!!
As you've been so helpfull....any ideal how I can get a version of Task Magaer on my Trinity. Orange doesn't supply one. Someone posted a CAB they had extracted on here for me that other day. It loaded OK but did not close down the programs only left them in the background as does the OK button???

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.

i'm not a mod but maybe combine his threads into one?
Hello all,
It was suggested to me to post this question here.
I am looking for a way to basically poing any and all possible to the storage card. I think I remember a couple years back finding one for my Hermes here at XDA-Developers.com but now I can't seem to locate it??
I would like it if someone knows how to or an app to do this if they could let me know. I think I remember the other one being a .cab that directed everything to the card.
Does this make sense to anyone?
PS: I know on the camera app you can select the device or the card.
Make it little clear
do you want to receive files(say songs etc) through bluetooth and get them stored in memory card and want to place inbox in memory card ?
chand
the moon
Well what I was thinking was I would like any and all files to be stored on the card.
For instance, when active-sync creates a short cut on the desktop (pc) for files to be sync'd there is a list of folders... If I click "Explore" in AS it opens to files on my device. Now if I follow it correctly, all the files in the (pc) desktop shortcut leads to the folders in the "My Docs" on the device.
The last sentenance is what I would like to change, I would like for any and all files besides apps or system files to be stored on the card.
Meaning, no "My docs" on the device memory, just the card.
Is there a way in the registry or something else to change the path for said folders to be redirected to the memory card?
I don't think there is an app that will do this
SKTools has a "move file" option that says it will move the file and update information in the registry, but its not clear if this applies to folders
Now, you could try using a registry editor with find-replace to find all instances of "/My Documents" and change it to something like "/Storage Card/My Documents", then soft reset and see if that works -- I can't seem to find a registry editor that does find and replace like this -- anyone?
Advanced Config Tool (attached) will allow you to specify default locations for directories.
Well, just when i think I have things figured out. If a cab is right for my phone, how do I get it onto the phone. Can I do it by the USB hooking it up to my Desktop and then copy and paste into the phone from the desktop? How do I then look at the phone and see if that cab is really there and launch it??
I have a file that tells me it's a CAB file to launch the BTAG that activates the Bluetooth settings and Voice Mail 1.6. It is from a cooked ROM and I only want this one CAB....
Thanks

Just put the .cab in intern memory or your storage card. Launch it (by clicking on it) via File Explorer.

hmm, the question is ok but not as a new thread, not in dev; how about general - newbies questions?
I really do hope that you don't make it a habit of yours starting new threads for every single question you have, urgent or not
thx for helping him
to finalize: use disk drive mode to get it to your phone via usb (activesync might lead to data conversion), you are able to select the target folder, disconnect, open a file explorer, navigate to your dir containing the cab and click/double click it for installation
depending on the cab it will either be installed (to device mem) or you will be asked where to install it (device mem or sd)
done and best
Mod. edit: CLOSED, answered, duplicate, wrong forum

just use Total Commander to handle it, you can download it at http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
cheers for the quick reply, have been using it but couldnt delete the file as in use, am a microsoft engineer and though in my mind i shouldnt have been able to do it, was able to rename the fonts folder to fontsbak, soft reset and as was diff name windows ignored it could then delete it!! 3 hours i been at this..... on a win 7 / xp etc system it would not have allowed you to rename the folder while inuse.... wierd lol!!
