Hi,
i am new to this forum, and been recommended it by a work colleague, however i did find it a few weeks ago and wa svery impressed with the detailed content.
I'm bluetooth stuff from my old handset to the new HTC Touch HD, but where does it go via default.. i've done a seach on the explorer icon, but no luck.
Can you change the default folder and can you add new folders and edit them to the explorer.
Sorry if this is too much bumped into 1 thread.
Thanks
Andrew
My documents, by default. But pictures can be redirected to my pictures etc...
I think you can use HD Tweak or Advanced Config to reassign folder locations possibly also for Bluetooth files.

Hello to All
As you noted, the version TT7.915.9196
includes that can navigate to pictures GEO Tagg
With this guide, you can use the function without having to use HTC FootPrint:
Create a folder named GEO-PHOTOS in ROOT
your SD
Open your camera and take a picture with the "GPS Photo"
Copy your photos in the GEO-PHOTOS
Start the TT7.915, navigate to ... and your picture will appear!
This all works on my HTC HD and it works
To find your photo, if you have to save the picture in SD,
out by the function of the camera, you will find the photos in My Document / My POI
That's very interesting. Should be usefull, but still there is no posibility to save current position.

wow - works like a charm, thank you very much
Perhaps worth mentioning for the uninitiated that (I presume) you will need to have GPS Photo enabled in the registry to be able to take those pictures in the first place.

Simply enable even with HD Tweak
Is there a way to get navigate to contact back instead of the picture?
I have Blackstone and Raphael.
Navigate to picture is cool but I have all my business client adresses and often service there computers.

Dear alesscam,
I have installed TT7.915 successfully on my HD. It works fine. Gets GPS fix quicker than TT7.10. I am keen to get the geo-photo function working.
I did not use the cab file to install, but copied all the files into the existing Navigator folder (from TTV7.910 install). Could I have a missing registry entry?
I have followed your guide and created a GEO-PHOTOS in the root of the HD memory.
I have GPS Photo enabled via HD Tweak.
I made sure that the GPS was on and had a fix prior to taking a photo with the on board camera.
I copied the photo to the GEO-PHOTOS folder.
Started TT and went to navigate to - Photos.
tapped the icon. No photo is displayed.
What am I doing wrong?
You mention SD. Exactly what are you referring to?
When I look at the folder where the photo is, it contains my photo as well as a file called thumbs_geo.dat I think this the geo code data required by TT to locate the picture on its map.
Thank you for sharing and looking forward to your help.
Best wishes,
David

Not sure if you got it working already. You are suppose to create the folder in ROOT of your memory card and not HD memory.

Big Thanks!
it works on my Xperia X1
Anybody know how to make the HTC music player (think it's called AudioManager) on the TF3D music tab completely IGNORE specific folders when its creating the library?
I have a folder into which I save recorded phone calls (yes, its legal here in Minnesota, I checked). But if I want to have the music player play ALL songs on random, I'll be driving along listening to music and all of a sudden the next song is a friggin phone call I saved. Kinda lame.
Anybody know how to fix this? I know there is a registry key to make the HTC Album ignore specific folders, so I tried copying that key into the Audio Manager area of the registry, but it didn't work (of course).
Greatly appreciate any help!
I save my ringtones on my SD card so that they're easier to recover after a hard reset or a new ROM flash. To prevent the music player from picking them up, I save them into a zip file. In your case, you'll have to manually move the file into the zip every time you finish recording a call. If that's sounds ok to you, then you can give this a shot.
Yeah, that'd be alot of work for me right now. I'm going through some crap which requires me to save at least a couple calls a day, so having to constantly re-zip stuff would get pretty cumbersome.
Actually though, I might try that. I think the player only refreshes the library when run for the first time, after which you have to delete the .vol file in the Application Data -> HTC -> AudioManager folder. So if that's true, I could zip what I currently have, force the library to refresh, and then unzip and leave them alone.
I'll see if that works, and the player doesn't automatically refresh the library and find those files again.
Thanks for the suggestion...
SOLVED!!!
Sweet!
While using Resco Explorer to try your suggestion, I stumbled upon the solution! I was looking to see if I could zip them directly with Rescoe, which you can't do, when I had another idea.
Using Rescoe, all I had to do was make the FOLDER with the audio files I did NOT want included in the library a HIDDEN FOLDER. Then went to the music tab in TF3D and bam! Those files were no longer in the library!
Sweet!!!
So thanks for your suggestion, it was that alone which made me figure out this unbelievably easy way to pull this off!
Oh, and sure enough, the call recorder still works and has no problem storing the recorded phone calls in the hidden folder. I'm using ACR - Automatic Call Recorder, in case anyone is wondering. It's FREE, and works great.
Thanks!
The Finish In Touch
I Know, double posting, but it's the real solution and i've been searching all over the forum, so to help others i've answered this thread as well.
Here's what i did and found:
EDIT REGISTRY
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\C onfig]
"device_scan_path_type_0"=dword:00000001
"device_scan_path_path_0"="\My Documents"
"device_scan_path_path"="\My Documents"
"music_player_time_mode"=dword:00000000
"music_player_mute"=dword:00000000
"music_player_shuffe"=dword:00000000
"music_player_loop"=dword:00000000
"music_player_index"=dword:00000000
"ring_tone_path"="\My Documents\\My Ringtones\"
"uid"=dword:000113E5
"drag_mute_timer"=dword:00000000
"Resume_play_delay_time"=dword:000007D0
"music_player_volumn"=dword:00000064
"Request_Memory"=dword:00300000
"Enable_ForcePrevious"=dword:00000001
"enter_suspend"=dword:00000001
"disable_mute_hotkey"=dword:00000001
ADD new STRING
"sd_exclude_path_path_0"="\My Ringtones"
ADD new DWORD
"sd_exclude_path_type_0"=dword:00000000
Each folder you want to exclude needs a STRING and a DWORD
The number in above example (_0) is the number of the "folder set" if there's already a number just add 1.
The DWORD 1 means device 0 for storage card
For example if i'll add another one:
folder on device "\My Documents\Recordings"
ADD new STRING
"sd_exclude_path_path_1"="\My Documents\Recordings"
ADD new DWORD
"sd_exclude_path_type_1"=dword:00000001
Restart device (soft reset), no need to hide any folders
Thanks for this
Hi Softappz,
Thanks for this solution just tried it on my HD2 and it's banished those pesky ringtones from the player
Doesn't work for me when I enter
"sd_exclude_path_path_0"="\Program Files"
"sd_exclude_path_type_0"=dword:00000000
It finds some ring tones in the sub-folders. Do I have to specify every single sub-folder?
This will serve me a lot! thanks
Didn't work for me. So I used the solution found here.
Quick note: Total Commander did not make sub-directories hidden as well. I had to mount my sd on my pc and manually set any folder I wanted as hidden. It all works flawlessly now
I still can't get the reg entries to work. I've looked into hiding folders and this doesn't work either.
The only way I can find to do this is to hide the actual audio files. This can be done in total-commander - but as akpidis found out if you want to hide sub-folders and files then you will need to do this from a PC. You can select multiple audio files from total commander (you can even do a search for all .mp3 files in sub-folders) and then set them as hidden, which may be better than hiding all files and folders from PC.
Hope this helps someone. (I'm using TouchFlo2.1)
Hi folks,
Been trying for a while to figure out a way to exclude images from my Gallery3D app (the one taken from the Nexus One) as well as certain audio files from my media player. Things like application images, battery icons etc as well as audio from SatNav were being picked up by apps that I really didn't want to have 'seeing' them.
Anyway, the way to exclude a folder is to insert a .nomedia file. You can create this using any text editor on your PC. Open a new file and save it as '.nomedia' (making sure to save it as 'All files' rather than '.txt' if using Notepad). Then copy this file to your phone into the various folders you want excluding.
Et voila! You may need to restart your phone.
Sounds like you can also use a terminal application, although I've not tested this:
cd /sdcard/(dir you want to exclude)
touch .nomedia
I saw a similar thread relating to audio, I just thought it's worth mentioning it works for Gallery too - everytime I searched this forum I couldn't find anything.

Hope this helps.

Instead of txt file you can also create (empty)folder called .nomedia
Good knowledge Benko! Thanks.
Nice tip. Going to use it now.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Nice tip! Thanks!
I can now keep my "Private" videos on my phone
i have RUU 2.2 on my Incredible. -- it only contained 1 Ringtone (Verizon Default).
my energy is focused towards projects for Cisco VPN and remote server support.
your 1 or 2 sentence reply can save me much time. -- thanks in advance.
where do i add custom audio files so i can quit using this awful ringtone?
system/media/audio
Thanks again!
The audio folder was totally empty. So I took the sub folders from cm6..
I find it interesting that there is a default ringtone if these folders disappear. I could never find the location of the default ringtone named "Verizon Default".
Well I have a similer problem but when I load files into the system/media/ringtones on the Incredilbe-4.06.605.2-Gingerbread-2.3.4-RLS2-Rooted-Signed they wont show. Also the ringtones that show up in my settings ringtones is in that folder so where whould they be.
I have spent hours trying to find them with no luck.
Hi everyone, I thank you in advance for helping me on this matter:
I recently switched to HTC DHD from E71, and I have a big problem with viewing the attached file with DHD. Standard viewer and QuickOffice won't even open it, and the other solutions that I came across if they can open the file the search function is unavailable, or inadequate.
Since I am a doctor, and this txt file is a national medical formulary, it has been an invaluable resource for me in everyday practice. I used to view it with LCG X-plore on E71 and easily search for the name of the therapeutic with an easy find-next option. Now, on much more powerful device - the HTC Desire HD, I can't even open it, and if I can, the search function is not as nearly functional as it was on good ol' E71. I believe that this must be just me being newbie in Android, and my question is following:
PLEASE recommend me a simple TXT viewer capable of opening the attached LARGE TEXT file (1,7MB) with FIND and FIND NEXT functions.
Thank you!

Docs To Go doesn't support .txt files.
Edit: Try this, http://www.lonelycatgames.com/?app=xplore&page=download&platform=android it's an explorer but makes a very good text viewer for large txt files.
