I've added some icons (png) files to a folder on the SD Card. They are visible in EStrong, but not to other applications. They only become available when I power on/off. Is there a way to make the available? As I am toying with many icon sets and generally playing, it's annoying having to reset the phone everytime to see anything.

How do you go about checking what is stored on your phones memory and deleting content? For example I used dropbox and downloaded a 7mb photo onto my phone. Can't find it in the photos app or anywhere else. Going into SD & phone storage under settings doesn't do anything. It says I have 70mb available space under phone storage but you can't click on that to get any further info. Same goes for the SD card options.

Like Facebook whatsapp screenshot etc. In the picture i hope you can see the distance in the white clock color and the slightly off white Facebook. How do i change these? I was able to change the clocks using xposed modules. I think I'll have to edit some images? I'm not sure where to find them or what to do.

Newbie to Androids here, just upgraded from a nokia 2323 (yep, pretty big upgrade). When I connect my phone to the computer, I want to put files on the phone and be able to access them. I have Astro File Manager, but when I go all the way to the top level of folders with that, the folders available are.
app
bin
build
customize
etc
fonts
framework
lib
lost+found
media
usr
xbin
And when I open the "external drive" (phone) on the computer, all I can see is.
.bookmark_thumb1
.footprints
albumthumbs
backup
data
DCIM
download
LOST.DIR
media
miner_savegames (from gem miner)
minerdemo_savegames (from gem miner demo im guessing)

rosie_scroll

HTCSync_2.0.28 (application)

How do I get the files into any of those folders?
What are all the .mail files?
Do we need them?
But are photos and videos taken on the phone stored on the SD card by default? I can't see any properties options to see where my files are stored.

View 4 Replies View RelatedJust been making some icons for my Desire, and I've noticed that I seem to have lost LOADS of my photo's, and icons on my SD Card.
All I've been doing is swapping the Card from Drive to Charge so I xcan try out the icons I've been making, and using the 3D Gallery to set/view them. I noticed that every time I opened 3D Gallery, the image, and folder count was getting less, and less. For example, my family photos of my son have gone from almost 100 images to just 7. Pissed off isn't the word.
Okay so i copied the files back from my PC to my SD card, and they're there now.
However.....
I use Turtle Photoframe as my Homepage photo widget, and it's STILL only showing the files that were'nt deleted. EVEN after I removed the widget, and set it. I also cleared all the caches, but it's still ONLY showing the few files that didn't vanish.
I have launcherPro installed and love it. I'm curious if anyone knows what pixel size to use when making custom icons for the dock.

I am working on an Android application which is supposed to play videos over HTTP on Android devices. Before we setup a server to host the video files just wanted a few things clarified: As per the developer documentation, Android supports .mp4 and .3gp container formats for video.
The audio-video codec used for our media files is H.263(video) and AAC LC (Audio). I did a little experiment and passed URL of one of the video files to the MediaPlayer class and got the following error: Command PLAYER_INIT completed with an error or info PVMFErrContentInvalidForProgressivePlayback.
From the docs, I came to know that for progressive playback, the video's index (e.g moov atom) should be at the start of the file. How do we make our videos Android-ready? What are the different considerations that we need to make?
I am creating a game using the irrlicht c++ 3D graphics engine port to android platform. The graphics engine is written in c++. I need to be able to load meshes and textures etc from c++ code. My current plan is to place all the game asset files in either the res/raw directory or the assets directory then on start-up copy these files to the sdcard so they are accessible from the irrlicht c++ code.Is this the best way to make the game media files accessible from c++?

A text editor that can create/edit text files from the SD card.
i.e. Windows Notepad on the Desire?
I wrote an app that downloads web sites and all their assets (images/stylesheets) to "disk" and therefore stores lots of small files on the SD card.
Sometimes it fails to delete large amounts of files and afterward the file system is r/o. To analyze that behavior I tried to do the removal of the files by hand and then go from there. But that already failed.

Anybody else seeing this behavior?
There were 6.500 files in that directory. Might that be the problem? I don't access the files with queries, I always have the exact name.

My Sandisc 64GB SD card went kaputt last week, it froze at 33GB, luckily the existing files are all ok and I was able to copy all the files onto my PC, however nothing new can be written to it. I've tried formatting with no success. So I copied the files onto the PC and just got a new this time Samsung 64GB micro SD card. Problem I'm having now is that on several attempts it's failed to copy the files back to my SD card (from PC) I've formatted the card in the Note 3..the music files about 4 GB transferred just fine, the problem seems to be with the Pix and Videos. I'm currently trying to copy the DCIM folder back onto the micro sd and it's saying it'll take 6 hours.
I have tried: copying from PC to micro SD in the phone via USB copying from PC to micro SD in SD card adapter plugged directly into PC
copying from PC to micro SD in USB adapter plugged into PC
all results the same
on my Ideos x5, every time I call or receive a call the display shows a contact information from SIM card and not the contact that I copied on the phone, which is bad because this way it shows only the number and the name and nothing else. Is there a way to make the contacts stored on the phone the ones that get displayed when calling or receiving a call without deleting the sim card contacts?

Is there any way to get it to use the whole picture. as it stands, whenever I try to use a picture for my wallpaper, it makes me crop the picture, and no matter what I do, the crop box never lets me use the whole picture, its like there's a size limit or something.

I checked it was cool before I plugged it in, and it feels hot across the area where it says "with HTC Sense" in capital letters. Also, I'm using the "charge only" option on the phone.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI was testing some apps that can move to the SD card. They move fine and run. After reboot i notice 2 things.
1. Icons i had on the home screen default to a generic droid icon similar to the market place icon. The apps original icon is gone.
2. Apps moved to the SD card disappear from the programs app try Is this just a bug with all 2.2 roms?
Is it just me or are 99% of applications are very low resolution and all the pictures look very dull and fuzzy.
The new facebook update looks crisper, so the phone cleary has the capabilities but why aren't developers making apps to the highest resolution?
On the people screen where you have the larger pics for your contacts some have a phone icon, others have a text icon and the index card icon. How can you get them to have the index card?
My problem is when I touch the pic it calls the person when what I want it to display the options, call, text, email etc. I know if you touch the bottom bar it does that but it takes some effort to get that right and not call someone by mistake.
On Damage Control and i was wondering if theres a good screencap tool. Any suggestions? And also, is there a program to back up all contacts to the SD card WITH their contact icons?
