I hope I'm not creating a new thread for something already out there, but I've been searching for days and have found no one with my exact same issue. I only have one /0 directory so having multiple isn't the issue. My problem is inside my /music folder which, is located in my internal SDCard directory, I have separate folders for each artist. For some reason I keep getting some of these folders duplicated. These folders have almost the same name as the original but replace at least one character with what I believe to be unicode (sometimes looks like an asian language symbol, other times is as simple as a diamond with a question mark in it). There is normally nothing in them, but in my music player I am seeing songs that are in the original folder duplicated with these same symbols and a 0:00 duration. I should mention that the original folders contained names with symbolic characters such as an 'e' with an accent such as what is used in the French or Spanish language. I have since changed these letters to normal English letters and deleted the duplicate folders, but if I leave the root browser (I'm rooted running Cyanogenmod 11) and go back in they are back. I've cleared media manage cache, google services and player cache, every cache I could think of and rebooted, same issue. Any thoughts? Any help is VERY much appreciated!

Hi
How do I assign my own music to an sms text alert? on my TyTN 11
copy and paste the tones you would like to use into the My Documents folder or Windows folder on your phone.
you'll find all the notification tones in settings>sounds & notifications>notifications. Select from the drop down menu and change The tone.
WTF?! When syncing to laptop or desktop, choose storage card preferably and put anything you wish in the ''My Documents'' folder. You might have to create this new folder if it's not present. Try googling your question next time finished with "xda"
Thanks Teh Reaper but I have done as you said and in sounds and notifications it still only allows the sounds that came with the phone
forget the copy n paste method, you have to be very exact where you paste it to, just put your audio or even video files in the My Documents folder from your pc
I had this problem as well when I got my Kaiser. Put the files into the Windows folder. This did the trick for me.
MyDocuments does NOT work for SMS or other notifications. Only regular ringtones work there.
Most likely you have to convert your SMS tones to wma before you are able to use them. SMS sounds didn't work as mp3 for me. There are lots of converters available on the web. Simply choose one.

No no no, you don't need any converters as long as they are mp3 or even m4 format, it'll read under settings from My Documents folder
For me, this doesn't work, as you described it. I tried this. My method works for me! It is just a suggestion.
My documents works for Every type of notification!!! Make sure its My documents from the storage card though
For some reason My documents from the device do not relate to sounds and notifications, again, try My Documents folder from storage card. I'm currently using a customized message for Every notification
Thank you
Thanks for your help in resolving issue.Works a treat.
1st time on thread for me,so thanks.
My question is simple as complicated, as seen about the post' number about this issue:
Do anyone of Diamond's owner figure out how the music player can have the right behaviour?
I've tried many configurations and, i think, the problem is given by the by now fabled "AudioManager_Eng.vol".
(Tonight i've tried to rename the file as shown in somewhere thread but it didn't work, then i replaced the file as the native from a backup, now i find some album duplicated, i changed the location in the internal memory.....after all i'm really disturbed and i think it should be easy adding music to the player!)
If even only one did it, please , let us know step by step how to do it
Thank you so much
Hello !
Hello guys ,like all of you i am a Htc fan and i had the same problem on my touch diamond...After many tryes i did solved this problem for me.
Try this and it should work and please post a reply if it works for you too
1-Go to youre music folder (path with all the music) and delete all the songs bigger than 10,5 Mb.
2-Go in device memory "Application Data"->"Htc"->"AudioManager_Eng" and there you will find a folder called "Playlists" and a file "AudioManager_Eng.vol"
3-Delete this folder "Playlists" ,and rename "AudioManager_Eng.vol" as you wish ,Eg. "asdfdasd".
4-Reboot your device and the player sohould be fine after a long seach for music.
5-For all the operation i ussed TotalCommander.
I hope it will work for all of you.
Just got the topaz
Doing what I normally do, I wanted to put some music on the thing.
I transferred a folder of mp3s to the device, and at the same time I deleted the two songs already there.
Now the player wont play!
It just says 'searching....'
When I go into the 'library' (softbutton on the lefthand side) - it shows the titles of the two songs I deleted. There is a speaker next to the first of them.
Looking around inside the library - I find the folder that I transferred myself, but I can't see the two songs I deleted.
There is apparently no way to remove the two dead entries - and the TouchFLO player seems to be operating under the delusion that if it keeps on searching the two deleted songs WILL be found.
Any way to remedy this apparent deadlock (besides hardresetting the thing)?
Can you put the two files back? Even if you no longer have them, you could rename a couple of files to match. That might get you up and running again and you can try and delete them from the library then.
That's a good idea!
I spoke to HTC Support, and their suggestion was to find a metadata folder for WMplayer - but we couldn't find it - it wasn't were it was on their device. I don't know it's name, but it was to be located in the very root, or maybe the root of the storagecard (haven't got one yet). So he promised to check it out and get back to me.
Meanwhile I hardreset the device, since I only just got it, I wouldn't lose anything anyhow.
But if the problem IS some metadata that doesn't seem to be deleted, maybe your suggestion would have worked
i had the problem on my phone, i duno what exactly fixed it but i put more music on and soft reset the phone so one of them might've fixed the issue
Hi there,
i searched the forum for a while now for a problem that every now and then pops up for me after reflashing. I'm searching for an automatic way to assign my own thumbnail graphics on the sense internet tab.
I use the manual way sometimes after flashing, but it is not satisfying me, because it takes lot of time to copy the files, rename my original files to the newly created ones and copy them back. So most of the time i don't use the icons...
Yes, i know that the pics have to be 512x512px PNG Files, and i also know that they are stored under Windows\Thumbnails .
I'm searching for where the information for the lookup of these pics (for example {2B1EE4E4-651F-D4DC-708B-DB1319CA381E}.png) is stored. I neither found it in the registry, nor in the filesystem as plain text. I copied the whole file system to my pc and did a in-file-search.
For me there are now to last possibilities where to find them:
Theyre stored as hex values in registry or in filesystem, so that a normal textsearch is useless or
theyre stored in a database file.
If someone has an idea which file it is or if theres another possibility i would be glad to hear it. It makes me crazy that we can change EVERYTHING on our wm-devices since years, but something like the bookmark icons (whch is significant for me) is so hard to find
best regards, Puckmeister
Are you looking for "Custom icons" or just a snapshot of the webpage? I know that if you save the favorite in opera 9/10 and open the favorite from inside opera (from the favorites menu) you will then see the screenshot of said favorite in sense.
Hi... I've recently gone through most of the pictures I had on my SD card and placed them in folders that are appropriately named. I have a question with nested folders. As an example set up, I have created a folder called Animals. Inside the Dogs folder, there are several sub-folders named for the animals they represent - i.e. "Dogs", "Cats", "Birds", etc. In the file manager program they are arranged neatly with no problems. I open the stock gallery app that comes with the ROM I have on my Galaxy Note 4 and I have the option for FOLDER and TIME. When I choose FOLDER, it shows me all the folders I have created - all at one time. Is there a way to simply show the Animals folder, and then when I tap on that, I can then see the sub folders?? I placed pictures in sub folders for this reason so that I would not see a boat-load of folders on the initial screen, but I could narrow things down by folder, then sub-folder (and even, perhaps another layer of sub-folder?)? Am I missing a setting, or did I arrange things wrong, or is there another app that might show things this way, or is it just S.O.L. for what I'd like?
Thank you in advance for your answers and suggestions
