[Q] Help, audio file disapeared on phone- criminal case - Off-topic

Hi
Our company is being black mailed. I recorded a phone conversation (legal in GA) with a app called call recorder by appstar solutions.
The file on my phone has now disappeared. It was replaced with a file that says (nomedia)
If there a way to get this audio file back? Is it somewhere on my phone? I did NOT delete it.
Any help is appreciated.
Garry

.nomedia files just mean that media browsing applications should ignore that folder.
If your company is being blackmailed then that's a matter for the authorities, not a public forum.

Could not create the voice link recording directory

When MyDocuments is moved to an SD card, each time you try to create a new Note, you get this error:
"Could not create the voice link recording directory."
Also the every file shows twice in the Notes browser.
Has anyone come up with a solution yet? What does this error mean?
How can I move the default save location from "My Documents" to "My Documents\Notes"
Has anyone seen a solution for this yet?
At least does anyone else experience it?
Hi,
I am also experiencing this and have Googled the living daylight out of this but not yet found the solution. Did you?
I also get the double entries. Not only when using the Voice Recorder but also when using Notes even without a recording.
The problem that looked simulair was with the AudioManager of the HTC Touch Pro. The sollution there was to change the directories that AudioManager was scanning. There were 2 possible entries and both were set on "My Documents". However I can't find a simulair entry for Notes or Voice Recorder, but I might have overlooked it.
Also AdvancedConfig doesn't have an entry for a Notes or Voice default directory.
If there are more issues that keep being unresolved I might even consider changing the Storage Card the way it was.

AJ
Solved: "Could not create the voice link recording directory"
Cause: This error occurs after moving the "My Documents" folder from Main Memory to a Storage Card, Internal Storage or some other location. The (misleading) error message appears becausethe Notes application still looks for templates in the original Main Memory location. Word and Excel also show (different) error messages for the same reason.
Solution: Make sure that Notes, Word, Excel etc. templates are available in the folder "\My Documents\Templates" in Main Memory even after moving My Documents to a different location.
WM6 Templates needed.
Hi,
I also have this nasty error message. I copied the templates in the \Meine Dokumente\Vorlagen Folder (= german version of \My Documents\Templates) but it doesn't helped at all. Maybe it's because they are WM5 templates. Could anyone please copy WM6 templates ti this forum?

Diamond Music Tab - Deleted Music Still Listed in Library

Hi guys,
Ive had a good search and cannot find anything about this problem.
On the music tab of my diamond it lists all of my music when I go into the Library option, only problem being that it is still listing items ive deleted. The library mark these files with an exclamation mark so knows they are not there, but I cannot find out how to remove them from the library list. The player will also still attempt to play them, but just skips straight past them.
Anyone got any ideas how I can make the library update to remove these files?
Thanks for any advice
go to \app data\HTC\AudioManager rename the AudioManager_Eng.vol file. Softreset and it will refresh the library and create a new AudioManager_Eng.vol file, you can then delete the old one you created.
Not sure if there's a simpler way around it.
Typical, had another search around the phoen and it turns out you just delete a file.
For anyone thats interested

XPERIA Ringtone Volume

Hi all,
I searched the forum and didn't find someone else asking the same question, so if someone else did then I did a bad job searching the forum.
I just got my XPERIA yesterday. I am not facing problems with it yet, maybe in some time I will but as always SE will find solutions for the problems (hopefully).
My main concern here is the ringing tone volume, does anyone else find it low even when the tone is put to the max. I also got the SE C905 for my other line, and it's the same with all my SE phones the ringing tone volume is good leave the volume 5 and the sound is heard pretty well when the phone is not near me. The reason I want the sound louder is because a lot of time my phone is on my desk and I am talking to someone in the office, or even when I'm home I leave it in my bedroom and go to the kitchen, the volume in the X1 won't help much. I read on another forum one of the users playing with something in the registry to make the ringing tone louder but didn't say how.
Can anyone help me out here??
Thanks in advance.
having the same problem.. the volume is really low when at max...
was hoping someone possibly finding a solution to this
try this it fixed the problem for me
right, same problem here... I tried to tweak the \Windows\audiopara.csv file for sound volumes but is REALLY different from the touch or raphael

does this break the volume control?
Hey guys,
I actually have the opposite problem. When the system volume on my X1i is FULL, it seems to 'clip' really bad and the sound is distorted. I therefore my leave my volume at 80% max, and sometimes it still sounds 'tinny' and distorted. I think this is because the speaker is quite crap, as my HTC Universal had much better sound.
billybob, I would just double check that while you're holding the phone, you aren't covering the speaker hole with your hand. It is VERY easy to do so, and this HUGELY affects the quality/volume of the speaker. In case you were unaware, the speaker is on the bottom left side of the phone.
Interested to hear what others think about this, but I can tell you that I do NOT have low volume for sure.
If it's your ringtones only, then you might want to look into editing the .wav/.mp3 file and increasing the levels that way. I always make my own ringtones, and I find that sometimes I need to increase the dB levels a bit more than normal.
theres already been a couple of threads on this, you do need to edit the correct audiopara file, have a search for audiopara on my username

I downloaded and installed the HTCVolume.cab file on my X1. Did a soft reset too. Now what next? I dont see any new program or any change in the volume? Am i missing something?
I did the same, nothing's there. I will try searching for the audiopara solution maybe it will fix the problem.

I dont think its a general volume problem. It seems the Xperia is playing custom mp3 ringtones quieter than the standard ringtones that came with the device.
It doesn't have to do with the ringtones because I am using my own ringtone and on my X1 it's low whereas on my other SE C905 it's normal.
Now for those of you who didn't solve this yet, here's what I did and it worked for me thanks to our friend fards.
P.S.: I am not responsible for any defection in your phone using my method. You should do this on your own responsability.
Download fards's AudioPara3_XC_Vodafone_V5.zip which I reuploaded or if you have the original one which I have you will have to download AudioPara3_XC.zip. It's the same file but one for vodafone and the other for original ones that are not locked to one company which is my case.
Now go to your X1 to Windows folder, you have either AudioPara3_XC_xxx.csv if your phone id locked to one company or AudioPara3_XC.csv if you have an unlocked phone. If you can't see these files press menu them show all files to view them. Now copy this csv file and put it somewhere on your desktop as a backup copy.
Unzip the csv file in some folder on your computer. Now download one of these files, which will allow you to copy the csv file to your mobile. Normal file explorer will not allow you to overwrite the csv file on the phone.
http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
or direct cab file http://ghisler.fileburst.com/ce/tcmdpocketarm.cab
After you install the software go to your Xperia open the software, navigate to Windows folder got the the AudioPara3_XC file and remove the read only option for the file. Now put your downloaded csv file to your phone (not to Windows folder, you can't paste it there). Using the total commander, navigate to where you copied the new csv file, then copy/move this file, and put the destination \Windows\ then soft reset your phone and you're done.
BTW after resetting the phone, the voice control interface changed, I don't know if it's due to the new csv but it kinda looks cool .
Thank you fards for the help
ehajj
thanks for the help. Just a few queries before I go ahead.
1) Will restoring the original AudioPara3_XC_xxx.csv file to its original destination will make the phone as it was before or its a irreversible process?
2) Does this increase the speaker volume (for tones) or only the earpiece volume?
Thanks for your prompt help!
Hi Moleculez,
1) The purpose of backing up the original file is to be able to restore the phone volume to its original state, so yes it's a reversible process.
2) I noticed an increase in the speaker volume and that's what I wanted in first place. For the earpiece I don't know yet as I just got my X1 on saturday afternoon so I am still Xperiencing with it.
I'm Having a slight problem, here, wonder if anyone can help.
I'm using total commander, trying to remove the read-only attribute from the .csv files in my x1/windows folder.
I touch and hold the file, and select properties, then clear the read-only checkbox, check the change checkbox, and click now.
Upon reselecting the.csv file, and opening properties, it is still read-only.
Am i doing something wrong? should i soft reset at this point to change the attribute?
Any help much appreciated, as i'd love my X1 to be a bit louder.
By the way, its a generic UK X1. (CarphoneWarehouse 02 unlocked/unbranded)

why are you trying to remove the read-only status of a file in rom?
Overwrite the file with the new one, the old one will not be deleted, the operating system will just use the new one instead. If you don't like it delete or rename the new file and after a soft reset the original file will be restored.

It was this part from an earlier post that caused me to try doing what i was trying.
Anyhow, i will try it your way, Fards, and thanks for the help.

WARNING
the file posted for NoBrand X1 attenuates excessively the volume during calling if you use headphone, so for me is not usable...
i've had to re-overwrite to the orginal one
My wife got her X1i yesterday and I played around with it and the sound volume is great and the clarity is superb. So I don't know what this is about.
try to use a custom mp3 as ringer and you will know what we're talking about

tilt textmessage ringtone

i can not figure out how to get a mp3 ringtone that i downloaded to work when i get a text. the tone shows up in the new text thing to select which tone u want but it doesnt ring when i get a text? my ringotne from a incoming call works. but not the text
thanks chris
I got the same problem. anyone can help?
are you sure the text tone does not work at all? I am running WM6.1 stock on AT&T Tilt which I purchased a couple of days ago. Today, I did not notice when I received the text. I thought I was probably away from the phone. But when I read your post, I doubt that the same thing is happening here as well?
hmm.. experts?
maybe not an expert, but afaik You cannot use mp3 as a message tone. it's got to be .wav
br
bro
[EDIT]
...and I believe You need to drop it in windows folder
You can use a mp3...you just have to copy it to the windows folder.
do u put it in windows folder in sync or on the phone?
i use resco file explorer to transfer it. You can use the default file explorer. Just do it on your phone. I keep them saved on my card because I flash so often that i just copy them from my card to the windows folder.
mp3's will work as message alert tones. Just make sure you drop it in the windows root directory.
If your particular mp3 file doesn't work try another one.

Easiest way is to use MP3Trimmer.
"Assigning Ringtones" problem for TILT phone...
I'm having the same trouble with assigning ringtones/mp3 files as text alerts, alarm clock tones. I installed the .cab file (ringtone manager) mentioned earlier in the thread, and I have all ringtone files in my WINDOWS folder. Howerver, when I use the installed "Ringtone Manager" program and explore my files...my mp3 files do not show up w/in the "Ringtone Manager" program. Any suggestions? I'm relatively new to all of this...please dumb it down for me.

I don't know from where you got the ringtone manager app. I don't see it anywhere in this thread. Maybe that application doesn't support mp3 files as text msg alerts or something.
I always place my mp3 files in the first screen after you've clicked 'Explore' in ActiveSync. I believe it's called "Mobile Device Center". Afterwards, it should allow you to select the file for texts. Try that. It should work.
I put all tones that i plan on using in the root of my storage card... no problems.

Need help to recover voice recording from temp file after phone crash

I did a voice recording, which is very very important to me, with "voice recorder 0.1" that came along with my S3Mini. Unfortunately, the phone crashed after about 1 hour. I recovered a huge temp file with the fitting time stamp in the root folder named ".voice". I played around for a while to figure out what it is and how to recover the recording but got stuck after a few steps. Can anybody help me here? Or should I post this request in another forum?
What I found out so far:
The app package is named "com.sec.android.app.voicerecorder" - maybe it helps to avoid confusion
The file is a kind of trunkated version of the final m4a file: I did some test recording, paused the recording, copied ".voice" elsewhere, stopped the recording and saved the final "test.m4a". A comparison by a hex-editor showed largely identity except for some placeholder for file length in the header and some rather big section at the end. I can also provide these test files but I didn't find a way to attach them here.
Any idea how to recover the content of .voice or what the missing file section at the end could be about? I would be really glad about that!
Sorry for asking again: Is this the right forum for such kind of questions? Or where should I post it?
Though this post is long ago, this problem can be solved now. Voice files are not difficult to recover as long as the data has not been overwritten. Many solutions and tools can do that, such as Bitwar Data Recovery, etc. You need to download a recovery tool and connect your device to the PC. Then let the tool scan your device to find the voice file and recover it.
