Go into Sync Manager and click your device up to the right. Now to the left you should have a menu with two choices, "Synchronise" and "Edit" (or something similar, my version is translated). Under "Edit" you can change where to sync.
Hope it helps.

te problem is there... i can't select anything else except the phone storage...

out of memory using internet

I have dash s620 with 2gb mini sd card and v23 from ricky, the other day i was using internet explorer and went to website, all ok but in short time the phone tell me that cant open site because dont have memory for that, when i tried use free memory program the phone had only 1 mb and only release a little, there are some way for fix that or to use memory card for tmp internet file??
thanks
Um... I can check it out and see what I can do about it and I will get back to you asap.
There is a cab called Mailstorage that will save internet temp,history,and cookies and save emails to storage card. I found it on txcaesar.net in the downloads section.
Oh yah that would work...
Thanks for yours helps, i will check

Na what is this application anyways, give it a try and see if it works. Did you have some specific questions on it or what?
I downloaded the app, but it errors during the install. I was just wondering if anyone else had this app working before I spend time trying to resolve the issue.

What errors are you getting when installing it.
I just tried it again, and it said it installed successfully, but was made for a previous version of windows.
Now I'm not sure what it did with the install. can't find the installed app, or a way to configure it.
Ummm would it be under java program. Or just browse under accessories possibly.
I don't see the app anywhere, but after rebooting, I notice my IE setting are pointing cookies, etc... to the storage card. Something's working. Not sure how to check for e-mails going to the storage card?
There is a Pocket IE folder on my storage card with the above referenced folders

I cant take it because need register in these site.
It's says made for previous version when you install, but works good on my 6.1 blackjack. It moves pie to storage and downloaded email/attachments to storage. It's not necessary to run a mailstorage program because the cab takes care of the changes.
no need for all that in 6.1. go into Settings/IE Settings/Temporary File Path and change the IE Cache Path

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

Help! Is there any way to set to phone to Active Sync?

My screen died on me last night. I was just about to send it in for repair. The problem is im not using the orginal rom and i need to flash it first. Only thing is, i cant get it to Active Sync mode! The screen barly responds with the pin when use it to drag up and down.
¨
But of course when the pop-up asking me to use disk drive or active synd pops up it doesnt work at all. For some stupid reason even the wheel wont respond in that menu. Is there anyone who knows how to manage to get the phone in to active sync mode? Really need som help here :/

You could try to flash through bootloader,switch on your phone,press soft reset and volume down
then start flashing like usual
Well, the problem is the original rom is in a installer so i cant access the files and place them on the phone. Anyone knows of a software that extracts the files from the installer?
EDIT: Nevermind, just realized i can use winrar for that. Now on to the next quiestion, there is one .nbh-file but it wasnt called DAIMIMG.nbh but it shouldnt matter if i rename the file? The question though is how do i get access to the internal storage when the phone isnt in activesync? It seems i only can access the other larger storage.

As i said before you can flash without using active sync through bootloader launching the RUU (the installer)
Or you can rename the file to diamimg.nbh paste it in the larger memory and press soft-reset + volume down + back and after some second you should press power button
nope, doesnt work. as i know the daiming.nbh HAS to be in the root of the internal storage. i dont have any micro sd memory or reader as well :/
its seems my only option is to find someone that does have a micro sd reader to go that way.

The problem is that the diamond can't read sd card or micro sd.
But if you open the phone and you connect it to usb it should be mounted as Mass Storage and you could put the diamimg.nbh
Cant read? But iv'e seen plenty much threads about using micro sd cards to boot from. And no, it doesnt. Even you keep the usb cable plugged in when booting it doesnt try to load anything from the larger part. I guess you never tried yourself?
can anyone else confirm this?

[Q] DInc external SD Card storage not accessible...any ideas?

Ok I am stumped...my wife just got the Droid Inc. a couple weeks ago and I pretty much immediately did the following:
Root it
Install SetCPU, used "Perflock Disabler" & setup profiles
Install "Autostarts" to disable some uneeded serivces & widgets at boot
...it wasn't until recently that I attempted to plug her phone into our computer (Win7 x64) so I could start to sync some pics, etc. to it. Unfortunately, whenever I plug it into the computer I get the "Do you want to install the VZW Drivers?" which seems to work. I see (2) additional removable drives show up however I just get the "Please insert a disk..." message.
Is there something I am not doing right? or is her phone borked?
I'm used to just plugging my DX into the computer and the SD card mounting itself without any problems.
I'm trying to get the OTA installed on her phone and keep root using the steps listed here (http://solo.dc3.com/dinc/) which I've seen posted on numerous Android forums sites.
Ideas? Help?
/bump
Anyone?
Try going into "computer" in the start menu on your computer and see if it lists the removable storage. If you still can't access them then you'll probably have to do a slow format on them. If that don't work then I would try plugging it into a different computer and if that don't work then I would re-flash the phone with the Verizon RUU from your computer. That's all I can come up with. If anybody else has any suggestions that would be cool.
You could also try pulling the card out and using an adapter to put it in your computer and see if it's the card itself. That's all I got.

I mentioned above that (2) removable drives show up when the phone is plugged in
I haven't tried plugging it into a physically different computer but I also did reboot over to Ubuntu 10.10 and I see 2 storage devices mount (labelled as "HTC Android Storage Device"...or something along those lines.) Unfortunately double-clicking them and right-click-> Open doesn't do produce any results either.
I'll give it a shot on our laptop (running XP) to see if that produces anything...but I'm doubtful.
I'm trying to avoid a RUU restore because I'm know she'll get annoyed...and I'm trying to avoid the wife's wrath & eye rolling
I'm fairly sure that the card is being read by the phone but then again I could be wrong...not sure if HTC Android phones save photos to the internal memory or not.
P.S. - In case some starts thinking overwise...I'm no computer n00b.
Plug it in, go to device manager, find the 2 things listed for the phone under disc drives. Right click them both and select update driver software. Then on the popup window select to search automatically.
That should work.

Funny...I almost did that yesterday but I was instead pointing the driver update to the HTC sync folder instead which wasn't working. Btw are you referring to letting it scan the computer for the drivers or doing a search online?

...and that didn't work either. All I get is a message saying that the best driver (Disk Drive) is already installed
I had the Android SDK installed as well (back when I rooted my DX) and made sure there were no remnants from Motorola or HTC...but no luck.
I'm stumped!
I'm going to try pulling out the SD card to see if that works...
Ok...so plugged the phone into our WinXP-based laptop with no previous drivers installed, (2) removable drives showed up but was unable to access the drives.
Attempted to update the "HTC Android Phone USB Device" entries in the Device Manager by having it look online...no dice.
The SD card appears to be ok though because I can read it just fine by pulling out the card, using an SD card adapter & popping it into the laptop...I can see all the cards contents without problem. I know that the phone sees the card properly too (obviously) b/c I can also access the SD card via Astro.
I'm not using the same USB cable every time either so I'm sure that isn't the issue either. I've used both my DX USB cable and the USB cable that came with the DInc.
Anyone else have any ideas?
This seems blatantly obvious, but I'm just gonna throw it out there because I haven't heard it mentioned. But by all the symptoms, it seems like the phone is mounted as charge only, not as a disk drive. Does it say it's mounted as a disk drive in the notification pulldown on the phone?
Come on now...give me some credit Of course I've checked that...I do have a rooted & custom ROM on my DX afterall.
I've also tried setting it to USB Debugging mode as well...no dice
Haha yeah I figured you checked it, but who knows. Brain farts are a common occurence these days. The symptoms just matched so well!
Anyways...I read this somewhere: Hit the Mobile Broadband Connect option and see if does anything. Also, another blatant one, restart both the phone and the computer. Also, make sure it's set to ask everytime you connect, and default to disk drive.
That's all I got tho...good luck sir.

I know figured people would think it would be as simple as that...but if it was that simple of a fix I would've figured it out by now
I tried the Mobile Broadband option and that doesn't do anything...no pop up or prompts. I've tried restarting both the PC and the phone almost every time and no luck and the phone was set to "disk drive" as well for most of my attempts. I've also had it on "ask" for some of the attempts as well.
I also noticed that when I plug in the phone sometimes and it prompts to install some software that it doesn't appear to do anything. All I get after the install is done (at least I think it's done) is show me a Windows Installer window with different commands for quiet installs, debug installs, etc. and then just an "ok" button.
Have you tried installing the newest HTC Sync to see it it would install or update the drivers? I've never been faced with a problem like this so I'm just trying to cover all bases.

Yup I've tried that too with v2.0 & the latest version (v3.0) and in both instances it shows "disconnected" even after a reboot of both the phone and the computer.
Here's one more thing, not sure if you've already checked into this...but is there any VCast crap installed on her phone? I just read on another forum that someone removed the VCast Media Manager with a similar prob and it fixed it. (you probably already read the same forum lol)

Hmm hadn't read that to be honest but just off hand I don't think it has the VCast software on the phone. I'll check tonight when she gets home.
Well I guess if none of this works then looks like you're gonna have to deal with the dreaded eye roll while running the RUU. Ha ha sorry we couldn't get ya going.

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.

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.
greez
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.
