Man, when you go to your your sd card using any file explorer, and open it, is actually the root of your sd card (as suggested, don't open any folder in sd card).

if you open your sdcard with any file explorer you'll see something like this
Code:
.
..
.android_secure
.htcnews
.quickoffice
Android
backups
clockworkmod
cm-7.2.0-buzz.zip
<DIR>data
DCIM
download
files
gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
Notifications
screenshots
TitaniumBackup
if you see this folder showing up
Code:
.android_secure
(note the leading dot ".") you are in your card's root directory
...and as suggested: don't go into any folder then

So the answer is..... download a file manager

Oh, I guess it won't help if your phone has no ROM to boot up...
--- EDIT --- unless we found out how to use one of those shiny things: [CWM-APP][1.01] AROMA Filemanager :: 120810-003 :: Open Source - xda-developers

[Q] EA sports FIFA 10

I bought and loaded this game in my Samsung Galaxy S.
When I execute it asks: Select "Download" to begin...
Then it says Download in progress... 5% 5/100...
After a long time asks me to retry, again and again...
Sounds like a question for EA.

The folder inside of the rar needs to be placed on the root of your sd card. not the rar.
It goes as /.madden10

yep. Make sure to unzip the rar as .madden10 so it creates a folder called .madden10
then put the folder on the sd card root.
Run the game.
is this the demo version or a full copy?

the animations might be easy to fix by editing the screen size file in .madden10 to our screen size like 450x800 or somethin? i know right now its set at the droid 1's ratio which is like 480x854, but i cant find a file for the field .png or uniform .png for the players.. hmm
Black field
I have a black field and ghost players. Is there an updated version?
link to folder data not working. can anyone repost ?
Bump still looking for the folder data for this original link gving 404 error. can anyone provide this ?
Have the apk but says need to download data and then just sits there.

Unlocking from TMobile UK

Hi
Do you have to buy rootexplorer from the market?
Got as far as cm7 so far
You can use free root explorers like Yaffs Explorer made by one of Defy CM7 devs, or Super Manager. Both are available for free on Android Market.
Hi ok downloaded yaffs.
Download the software and put the system folder into my root of the sd card what do I do next?
Can anyone help still stuck....
Hi mate. You need to put them in the system on your phone not SD card. Put them in the directories exactly the same as the zip file. Ie copy paste to those directories

Thanks for that !
However still not working I open the system file on my sd card , copy bootmenue file, then go to system on phone then mark the original bootmenue file and paste , did that for both files but still asking me for a code to use another sim card !
What I did was copying just the specific files inside of the folders:
init.mapphone_umts from 2nd-init from bootmenu
and
bp_ptc from bin
Now make sure to press Mount R/W in the top of the android file system.
Hope it helps...
dealstokie I suggest to wait someone more experienced to do it and test it otherwise you might softbrick your Defy. Meanwhile you can look for alternate (not free) methods to unlock your Defy as this might be cheaper than buying a new Defy.
I'm lucky and I have an unlocked Defy therefore I'm not so eager to try it, but maybe you are lucky too and there will be someone brave enough to do it.

Here's a screenshot of a Root explorer I used for the soft unlock method:
View attachment 727983
Note the Mount R/W in the white rectangle...press that button, so you'll get Mounted as r/w looking like this:

the pictures were taken from my SGS2 though, not the Defy one, so just don't get confused by it

What root explorer did you use? - worked that out by screen shot.
So here's what Ive done - Replaced the 2 files with the 2 new files in there correct folders, to do that I had to change mount r/w to mount r/o it let me place the files there then I exit then turn off change sim card and still not working !

Done all that, done the mount think and still not working ! do you have to press mount again AFTER you have pasted the files?

Man, I don't know why it isn't working for you
I mean, I just followed instructions from that russian website (translated by google) and it worked the first time...unless your defy is kind of cursed
All I can do is wish you good luck and good night (I'm tired now, really).
P.S.: try repeating same copy/paste steps with the same locked sim card inserted while turning the phone on/off say two times in a row and see what happens, might help, dunno...

[Q] Clockwrokmod Recovery

Hi There! I would just like to ask if it is possible for me to copy and paste the backup I've done with cwm recovery to my PC and then delete the file from my SD Card? Since it takes up a big chunk of MB on my SD Card (which is 8gb only) I was wondering if it is fine. I'll just restore it to my sd card if I needed it.
Thanks in advance!
Yes you can copy the Backup to your Pc and delete it on your SDcard.

Ok swapping is easier in manual mode so you have to follow the steps correctly
Before we start i just want to warn you all you apps which are installed on your sdcard must be moved to internal phone memory or they will be lost after swapping.
1- get a file explorer that has a build-in text editor and could use root.(i prefer es file explorer)
2-go to /system/etc and open "vold.fstab". And open it in your text editor.
3-ONLY swap the word "sdcard" with the word "external_sd" as i wi show you in these attachments.
4-reboot (i make a fix permissions before it) and enjoy.
