don't know if this is the cause but under settings go to system and click on encryption .. make sure the box that says "encrypt files when placed on storage card" is clear. I think the phone might be encrypting the files thats why you can't use them on computer (but i might be wrong). atleast this is the only thing i think could cause this.

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

Hi, you cannot access the files. =(
hello,
it's not clear if you want access file within android or just connecting your SD card to a computer.
Can you install apk file (i.e. downloaded from market place?)
i want to access files within android because i want to install apk files from memory card.
i tried to install apk files from market palce but after selecting any application, it shows downloading but doesnt finish download even after several minutes.
I have had similar problem, my 2GB sdcard was not full but I could non use at all, I formatted full FAT32 and put back the file. This solved the problem.
any luck
Are you saying that when you use something like OI file manager, you can not see any files on the memory card ?
i want to rom version of android2.2 too.

i dont have a solution for your problem, but if you have .apk files put it in the "Androidapps" Folder on your sdcard via PC and then run Android. It install automaticly if you start Android.

[Q] Change UI sounds? Unlock/lock

Anyone know how to change the ui sounds on the aria? running CM7 Nightly build 8
I found a video on youtube of some dude doing it on his droid using RootExplorer and copying the *.ogg file of choice to the system/media/audio/ui, * being renamed to what you want the sound to be, for me it was Lock.ogg. I get an error saying that there isnt enough memory to do this and my internal phone memory has about 80 mb free. Dont know what to do...Anyone else?????
Thanks.
Edit: this is the file I want to use as my lock sound to go with the CM7 screenlock animation:
http://www.wavsource.com/snds_2011-01-09_1004796414058853/sfx/radio_tuner_y.wav
Note: I have converted it to a .ogg file already but couldnt post it on here because it is an invalid type.
i would say open up the update.zip file go to system/media/UI and replace the .ogg files and flash the zip as you would any other

You can't change files under /system while the phone is booted. You have to either adb push the file while in recovery or do as what was stated above.
thanks, I'll try and see if that works.
Edit: I tried to repack the Rom into a zip and guess I did something wrong. I'm pretty sure I dont know what I'm doing. If anyone can spell it out in the simplest terms on how to put the .ogg file into the rom zip, please do so. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Q] Can't modify .apk files, Also can't see them on my PC.

For fun I made custom textures for 'Flappy Bird'
When I try to move the new texture file into the .apk it doesn't work and it disappears after I load the .apk back up.
I am using root browser, I basically can't do anything with the files in the .apk besides extract or view.
Also when I tried to modify it with my PC It wasn't even there, I tried and tried by making files and changing the extension but it wouldn't appear.
How can I fix these problems?
I really want to modify the texture for 'Flappy Bird'
