RE: Extra Storage
Another method I used.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Alpine/Extra Storage unlocker
Copy the exe in the zip file to your Alpine, then tap to run on pda. It doesn't show a finished message.
I use 'resco explorer', with show hidden etc in the settings, I haven't tried to vew with only the standard file explorer, it may work as well.
Goto Windows on your pda and you should see a folder called 'shared' it should show 60.9mb free. If you do use Resco Explorer and hold your stylus on the shared folders and select properties, you can change all the attributes (Hidden, Archive, Read, Write and ROM), although I haven't needed to. :lol:
Correct Link for above

Hello
I'm be happy that a way seems to be real, but it do not work on my 2020I.
I select unlock Extrom, but the Extrom is no visible, so i select Unhide and it say to me to do soft reset. After it, i don't see any Extrom. Only way is to use original LoadVisk, but it is writeProtected.
Where i am in fault ?
Thank's

I used the Loadvisk on my XDAIIi and I can write to it etc (Shared folder in windows).
Use Resco file explorer to change the shared folder attributes. Make sure you configure Resco to show hidden files etc.
Heres the link

Loadvisk
Here is Loadvisk program I used on XDAIIi, it may help
Confused loadvisk does not access ext rom?????
I'm confused about loadvisk. I thought it unlocked the ext ROM, but no it only gives access to your RAM not to extended rom.
I tried the other tool on here unhide, unlocked, where do I access the rom in my file explorer?
so please ignore my previous posts about loadvisk.
How can I reverse loadvisk to hide the shared folder again?
sorry if this is a bit jumbled, I'm just finding out about this stuff myself
Thank's for reply
But it do not work.
If i use loadvdisk_493.exe, it show Extended_Rom as entry, that is the same result as LoadVdisk.exe that exist in Windows directory. I can't modify files inside Extended_Rom and it as this name, not Shared folder. It is not a folder but new media and with resco 5.22 i can't change attributes because it do not permit to media, only with files or folder.
Secondly, if i use Exttrom_200_250.exe, i can't write to in Extended_Rom.
Is this write for you ??

RE: EXT Memory
Hi,
Loadvisk has nothing to do with extended memory, it creates a virtual disk of your Program RAM (see 'Memory' on you PDA). This shows as a folder called 'shared' in Windows, when you copy files to this folder, the look at your memory, you will see that it stores in your program section of your memory and so I wouldn't bother with it.
I have had a good look around and I can find nothing to unlock the true extended memory, only the tool you used to unhide it.
You can flash your extended memory with the 2577 method, but this is not ideal for users who just wnat to access and write to ext memory.
Full details link below

There is another method to write to the extended rom but is far more involved than the method DAz mentioned. It does actually write to the Extended ROM so it therefore survives a hard reset and allows you customise the ROM with programs and remove stuff you don't use like the bloody annoying O2 active crap.
I've used it and can say that with a little patience it is fairly easy to do, although trial and error is required sometimes. Some programs don't seem to install from a hard reset however most do (Pocket Plus, Resco Explorer, TCPMP etc work fine).

Help with Total Commander

i downloaded the Total Commander program am i supposed to be able to delete files with it? because it won't let me... i'm trying to delete some of the preloaded songs on my phone to make more space. thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
You can not delete some system files
With Total Commander, point on a file and select file properties, it will show you if the file is a "system" file that you can't delete.
well...
well is there a free program that will allow me to delete system files? i used to have a program that would but it wasn't free and the trial expired. i think it was the resco file explorer but i can't remember.
Some "system files" are included in your ROM (Read Only Memory) and can't be deleted by any program.
true, and i understand that. but the resco joint let me delete the songs that were listed as system files before. but i've had to reset my entire phone, because it was having some issues, so now those songs are back and my resco trial peried is way over. so is there any other program that can do it? because i'm 90% sure that i deleted these files before with resco...

Deleting files that I dont need in WINDOWS directory.

Hello
How can I delete files in the "windows" directory?
Those files that I want to delete are not important or anything so I want to delete them.
I mean those "Album_Sample" pictures and one .3gp video.
In Files Explorer on my Diamond I cant delete them and when I connect my diamond to my PC and I try to do it this way it says that I dont have a permission to do it. Please help me how to do this.
Thanks
Sorry for my english...
Total Commander will let you do it:
http://www.ghisler.com/download.htm
Note: you'll have to go to File -> Properties to remove the Read Only and/or System File properties from the files you want to delete before you can delete them.
Also, I find TC easier to use with a full keyboard, and I use My Mobiler to access my system when altering the registry/Windows files:
http://www.mymobiler.com/
Good luck!

These files are probably in the ROM, so you can't delete them. You could overwrite them but this doesn't save any space because the originals are always kept.
You need to cook another ROM without them.
As already mentioned, those files are probably in ROM (and thus not something you can delete) BUT in the off-chance they are not, you can do the following to delete trouble-some or "locked" files:
1. Install Resco Explorer
2. Delete the suspect files (they will be moved to "Recycle Bin")
3. Restart your device
4. In Resco Explorer, empty the Recycle Bin
Ta-Da -- files gone.
Again, if they are in ROM, this won't work.

why not learn to cook ur own ROM? at ur own risk of cos... my own ROM gives me a total of 107mb of program memory and total of 123.3mb of storage memory.. plenty of space and so much less lag...
we used to say that lagging and hanging is one of the feature for WM devices.. but that's in the past now.. now i'm only trying to figure out if it is possible to partition it so that i can put more space to program memory from the storage...
Good luck..

Deleting system files

Does anyone know how to delete system files out of the \windows folder? there is a bunch of junk in there and I'd like to get rid of a lot of it. I have tried using a program called total commander that you can change the file properties and it just reverts right bak... any help would be great.

Unless these were installed manually then you can't get rid of them as they are in the ROM (Read-Only Memory). The only way you can remove them is to re-flash without the files in the ROM image. Are you sure you don't need them?
rom != storage
the system files in \windows are in the os rom part which is never
something you can overwrite unless you are building a rom
freeing up space in the rom don't add space to storage
it just mean you have a device which don't use all the space
it could in the read only memory
this does not give you more space or speed up your device
unless the program is auto run and take up temp storage
and application memory

Go to Windows,tap menu,tap show all files,scroll until you find the file/s you want to delete. This is very time consuming, but if you have patience and perseverence give it a try.

Windows Folder Restricted Files Access

Hey all I have a X1,
I want to know how to replace files in the Windows folder, can anyone help me out?
Any help at all will be greatly appreciated
MOD EDIT - Moved to General discussion as not related to rom development
can anyone help?
Total Commander: http://www.ghisler.com/ should work
I myself prefer Resco File Explorer...i haven't done a "windows" file replacement in a while, but I believe that method works
Don't forget to enable hidden files (just in case you aren't seeing something)
I will try it out right away, thanks a lot for the reply
