does anyone know how to share a folder on your Universal

Hi, i have searched the forum for an answer but i had no luck, plenty of threads on how to map a drive of a PC onto your Universal but not the other way round, i have a folder on my SD card that has all my simple system tools for PC in it and i would like to be able to go to a WiFi network and be able to access the folder from any PC regardless of activesync.
I hope i didn't make my request too confusing but im sure you will know what i mean because it would be very usful
Thank you so much for your time on replying in advance

The best software for you is WM5torage.
By Ingvarr:This program will export the flash memory card as usual USB Mass Storage device (ordinary "usb disk") - effectively turning smartphone into flash reader. It works with many (not all) Smartphones and PDAs on the market that use WM5 as OS.
Latest version is v1.53 - it's free , fully working Mass Storage Software working with WM5.0 :
You can find previous version here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45411 or new after some changes here:

Thats Brilliant, thank you so much for your reply, but i don't think i didn't explane it right, i already have a program for doing the USB mass storge,its called 'Card Export 2', its brilliant and so fast, but thats not what im looking for because you still have to physicly plug your phone in to a PC, i want to be able to 'SHARE' a folder on my phone, i.e Mydevice\my document\STUFF, just like you do on a PC, and then be able to run/edit/copy/paste stuff in that folder from another PC using WiFi, so in other when i go into work and connect my phone to the network using WiFi i want to be able to go to any desktop and access my files on my phone without wires, i.e in explorer type-
\\myphone\stuff
('myphone' being the name of my device & 'stuff' being the shared folder on my phone)
have i made it any clearer?
please let me know if im not making myself clear

hi jab1a,
in the past i was also dreamin about a solution you have described. in the meantime i have learned by other posts that this is not possible as providing drives or folders as a network ressource is not implemented in windows mobile. so no way of getting an easy solution for that. but in other cases wm5torage works very well for me until somebody has worked out a way for wireless sharing of folders.
best regards

Hi,
I use a piece of software called V m Network Browser. lets you copy and paste files and play files over the wifi network.
Great app
its shareware but small price for a good piece of software.
hope this helps

hi nightspider,
thanks for your input. just one question left: is this software running on your desktop/server pc and it allows to play around with files on your mobile device or do you run the software on your mobile device and play around with files on your desktop/server pc?
greetings
peter

It was small misunderstanding from me :wink: . So maybe ( not tested on WiFi) idea of the ftp server on PDA :?: ?
You cand find ShareIt FTP( no shure if working on WM5.0 :?: ) http://www.noisette-software.com/products/pocketpc/ShareIt/

Hi peter_altherr
Yes it runs on the Pocket pc nothing needed on the desktop pc apart from the shared folders

Copying files no work no more!

Howdy,
Did a search but didn't find topic?
First mistake, Dnloaded and installed latest AT&T 6 Rom to me Hermes!
Second mistake, have Vista Home Prem (ugh!) Build 6000, and
had Windows Mobile Device Center installed and worked on Win Mobile 5. Could copy and paste files to SD card!
Installed on the new Rom, now I tick WMDC > Connect > GO to SD card > to paste file / app etc and get billies
"The copy and paste has failed. The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected!"
Even tho I can see files on SD card on laptop!
So I uninstall billies WMCD reboot laptop and reinstall WMCD and same error!
Now I can see the files on the SD Card, move the files around on the SD Card but no copy to SD card??????? I don't have a card reader as I used Win 5 and didn't need another reader!
Any suggestions, workarounds (besides getting rid of billies silly junk.)
Help please!

Hey thanks and fast reply,
I will try formatting sd card if I can find a way to back it up to something!
Does anyone know of a free online Back up site that I could back up sc card with Sktools bkup?
WOW have to much great stuff on it from xda forums!
I rally don't mean to add an off topic situation, but this also started when I installed the AT&T Rom. . .
The other problem that I just found out is that the sound is on, I can hear WM player out of device, but don't have sound for Skype with or w/o headset. As I can connect to call, hear the mic on called phone, the caller hears me but I don't hear the called sound on device or head set???? Im using fling and am connected with wifi, to Skype!
At least it's charging off usb sync, which is one thing that works!
If I can't discuss anothe problem with this New Rom here please move to right place and send a forward!
I really like this board, so I don't want to do anything wrong!
Thanks

Hey there,
I did a defrag SD card NO work!
Than I did a format
Connected (thats what it says but not what it does) and copy and past NO go. . . same error!
Tried to install Sk Tools, (from pc to device as before) and no go, same error of disconnected or what ever? And since I can't do a restore form pc to device, no copy, than None of my SD base apps work, Sk Tools, fling, etc!
So is the SD corrupt!
I vista corrupt (that's a dumb Q)?
Is WMCD corrupt that was working before my new Hard Drive replacement!
Or what?
Oh yea thank you for any replys!

I am also have the same problem.
Hello to all,
I am also have the same problem. Not with the sd card but with the build-in memory. I have installed the windows vista with WMDC 6.0.
I think this problem is with the OS or with the WMDC 6.0.
Because I have an another pc with windows xp installed and there is NO problem with it. Copy and past will work perfect.
I having HTC Wizard that is qtek 9100 with WM6, NBD 9.2 installed.
If any one find the solution please let me know also.
Also conection via bluetooth to WMDC 6.0 it also not possible trying to find the solution but no luck . It will work in fine with winxp but not with the vista.
Please help.........
Many Thanks

Madefree,
I would suggest a couple of things:
- flash a different rom to your device, eg a WM 6.0 from Schaps.
- review the MrVANX guides (www.mrvanx.org).
Let us know how you get on.

Thanks wacky banana,
Well at least I know its not the SD card as I tried another with the same irritating gates error message!
I uninstalled and reinstalled WMDC three times and still no file transfer> I have to do any transfers with a cardreader! So I don't know if I can do an upgrade on the ROM as I really want to (as ATT 6 was really a downgrade!)
Thanks. . . .
I went to that link and they are upgrading the site. The following is stated at the ever begining . . .
.....Now make sure your device is on and activesync (or for vista users the WMDC) is running on your PC, connect up your device and allow it to sync. When this is done run "RUUWrapper.exe":.....
RUUWrapper.exe wasn't a link to a download so I guess "searching" is on really first on the "how to" list!
Thanks for the links and the reply, greatly appreciate any and all help at this point!
Have a good one!

How to upgrade my Qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard)?
Hello,
Sorry I wrote wrong ROM version. It is NBD 9.2 installed, NOT NBD 9.3.
Thanks
Srikanth.k

Well DUH ATT 6 allowed me to copy to a file, but only to inside the SD card from the PC but not to the card directly (root) w/o a folder to put it in!
Active Sync works but not DUH WMDC (whatever) crashed twice in one day so Im stick with clicking on My PC > than on HTC device, than Active Sync works better than DUH other option billy made!
It's a vista thing all DUH way!
Hey wacky banana took you fine advice and downladed Schaps.WWM 6.1 Pro FULL ROM and with the excellent RRU packed with it got RID of ATT's "stuff"
Still can't transfer to root of SD, unless I do it thru a cardreader, but at least I don't have DUH branded bulk! Just need to delete (turn off duh startup sounds, so everyone around don't growl at me when I reboot!
Mighty fine ROM thx for the suggestion . . . . gotta do a donate!
Later!

Copy file worked!
Hello
The problem was with the K-a-s-p-e-r-s-k-y AV that I was been installed. It was blocking me to copy the files to my PDA. When I uninstalled the app it worked perfect without any errors.
Please anyone know which is the best antivirus.....
Thanks to all.......

MSN Messenger for my artemis?

Is there a way to get MSN Messenger onto my phone for free or is it a purchase only? I found an old version of Messenger for pocket pc 2002 ( it was via a thread at this board ) which after installation on my phone showed the MSN icon but didn't do anything. There was some update file which I needed as well to make it work but microsoft had deleted it. I'm just looking for messenger the same as it is on my pc, with standard smileys, etc, not one of those messenger clones. Thanks.

Thanks man. Unfortunately, after it goes through the process of trying to install the .CAB file on my phone, it says installation unsuccessful. Not sure why tbh. On their error screen, they say it could be insufficient memory, device may not support it, or that my carrier (T-Mobile) may not allow it. As it installs, it doesn't give me an option to install to either the device or my storage card. Any suggestions?

Excellent, I got it working! I tried out duttythroy's 1.80mb cab file and it worked. Well actually, it said successful install but there was nothing to find of the program anywhere on my device except in remove programs. So I decided to look in my device/windows folder, and all the WLM files were in there. I clicked on the WLMMessenger.exe and it went through the set up process, merging contacts and signing me in. Thank you JamminJaguar and duttythroy.

No problem, now buy my Nike.

Heh
Actually, I ended up installing this, uninstalling it and reinstalling it, because I did something wrong with the setup. On the first install, messenger, windows live services and and search bar all showed up on my phones desktop which was great. This time, it's not showing at all for some reason. Maybe because on the second install I decided to untick the search bar and services? So I've copied the WLMMessenger.exe from the windows folder and pasted it into my device/program files folder and that works.

im not and idiot or a noob, im tyring to post legitimate feedback on an android rom i am currently using but i need 10 posts so here is one more, thanks for this stupid rule! 8
I have been using Droid ROMS, MODS and kernels since the G1.

Software CD?

DId the Desire come with a CD, in the excitement i may have over looked and misplaced it, if s can i download the software?

Nope it didn't come with a CD, it's on the MicroSD card Plug the Desire into your computer in Hard Disk mode and you can install it. I'm sure it should be available online though

hmmm i remember the option of things to choose comming up on pc before, dosnt come up anymore :S, jsut charges and i cant do anything else

If you swipe down the status bar and press charging you should be able to change it?

hmmm doesnt say charging on the notifications bar, :S , its definatly charging, this is strange, i was def getting it before lol

That's quite odd! I'm not sure what to suggest then.. but if you do manage to change it you'll be sorted

wen i go to the bottom right the drive comes up, and in my computer, but i cant access it

Do not format the SD Card, it will wipe the HTC Sync executable installation file.
Do you have USB debugging enabled?
1. From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Settings > Applications > Development.
2. Make sure the USB debugging check box is selected.

You can always download HTC Sync from http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=312&act=sd&cat=3

ok iv installed htc sync from that link, and i done the usb debug option, it now connects, installs a load of stuff, but i cnt access the drive through My Comp and on HTC sync it says "disconnected"

Try turning off the phone and turn it back on again while connected to the PC via the USB cable, and then select the Disk Drive option.
What version of Windows are you running? Is it 32/64 bit?

thanks a bunch guys, the restart got it working,
one last thing, how do i go about putting music and video onto the device, at the moment theres 3 folders, footprints, backup and lost dir, also does this HTC sync auto transfer photos and videos you take to the pc like the nokia programs did?

No problem Bud, glad that worked.
If I remember correctly, just create a Music folder in the root of your SD card and create folders within that folder.
e.g. Storage Card\Music\Chris Brown\[the mp3 file]
To store video files, create a new folder called DCIM, and then create another folder within that called 100MEDIA, and place picture files and video files within that.
The structure will be Storage Card\DCIM\100MEDIA\[picture file] for pictures, and Storage Card\DCIM\100MEDIA\[video file] for videos.

thanks again boss, , move from symbian to android is like from the stone age to modern day

How to disable HTC Sync Manager Autoplay on Jellybean

Hey guys I'm sure many of you noticed that ever since we updated our One X to Jellybean Sense, USB Mass Storage has been changed to MTP format. That issue has been taken cared off here. There was also an Autoplay Menu, showing to install HTC Sync Manager or Open to View Files (which showed a bunch of drivers and stuff...) especially when you uninstall HTC Sync Manager from your PC . Now there's a way to remove that as well.
1. Use Root Explorer and head on over to System/App
2. Mount as r/w from r/o if you haven't
3. Delete HtcSyncManager.apk
4. Reboot and Enjoy
If you have any problems mounting your system afterward, try rebooting your phone and PC. If not, simply reflash your ROM and it should take care of it .
Will update this thread if I find any more issues and workarounds.

I think simply reflashing or restoring the file should "unfix" it

You can also simply "Disable" HTCSyncManager from Settings>Apps>All. This was you can easily re-enable when you need it!

Just updated my cid_032 to JB and saw this HTCSyncManager autorun as cdfs at My Computer and start to find way to remove it. Found this thread and because i'm not rooted tryed this soluton , but it didn't work , there is no "HTCSyncManager" app in Settings>Apps>All... there is only HTC Sync app which is very different... maybe it's time to root this iron
p.s: just thinking wheather if I install HTC sync manager on my pc ( i installed just drivers , don't like much soft if it's not needed ) this autorun will disappear from itself ( some kind of checking and stopping automaticaly ) ??? 10x in advance...

Yes, I think it will this is annoying when you get tired of HTCSyncManager and you uninstall it and this autorun keeps pestering you to re-install it . Why haven't you rooted it tho .

Still not able to mount it on my macbook after these steps. Are you sure it makes it mount as a block device again?

I fixed that problem just by removing the drive letter from the corresponding drive. Haven't seen the annoying popup since.

Thanks, removed the system app.

Or go to Settings-->Apps-->all-->HTC Sync then stop and deactivate the app.
And if you later want to reenable it just do the same but with activate and start.

I removed HTCSyncManager.apk, and it helped initially, but the sucker was still popping up in Windows, only now a couple of minutes later after I plugged in the phone. I traced this down to Windows service HTCMonitorService, which I had to stop and disable to completely prevent Sync Manager from popping up. Apparently the purpose of that service is to periodically check for presence of the phone at USB port and start sync in case auto-start didn't do it. That's one more step that you need to do if you want to keep HTC Sync Manager software in Windows (for drivers for example), but prevent it from loading up every time on USB connection.
By the way, none of this is specific to HTC One X. I have One now and before that, One X+. They all suffered from the same problem, so this thread likely applies to most latest HTC phones running Android.

This is now called 'PC Synchronization', not HTCSyncManager.
