Hi,
In wm5 , I try to change the default saving camera photo directory into \Storage Card\ , but it still provide me a directory \My Document\, like this-> \Storage Card\My Document\
The value of this registry will change back to \My Document\ whatever the value I modify after the exit of all program and reboot. So strange??
Which value of registry should I change? My aim is to change the directory of saving camera photo taken into like this \Storage Card\Pictures
because when I sync with pc, the windows media player will copy the files to \Storage Card\Pictures not a default \Storage Card\My Pictures\ (If I can set the sync directory, then it's great.)
Thanks a lot.
Jim

Is there a registry edit that will allow me to add another folder to the sounds settings in my Ozone? I know by default the Ozone looks in \windows and \My Documents\My Ringtones for ringtones but I want to be able to put the ringtones on the micro sdhc card
I have found a work around by using HTC Audio Manager to select ringtones on my microsdhc card but it only works for the main ringtone. I cannot use it to set any other sounds like text message, email, voicemail alerts etc...
1. how to change default photo and video files save location?
2. can I change the default ringtones location? dont wanna save in \Windows\Rings or \My documents\My ringtones to save some space for programs
I have this strange issue and didn't find any helpful advise although I searched the forums.
My rings are in \Windows\, which is correct. I cannot remove them from there anyway.
My registry says my default rings directory is \Windows\, which again is correct.
And yet I don't see them when managing rings.
Is there any other location in the registry apart Current User\Control Panel\SoundCategory\Ring\Directory that I need to modify?
Thanks...
Put your rings in the Storage Card\My documents instead
I specifically don't want them on my Storage Card. It works when they are there, but that's not what I am after.
I just want WM to respect the value, set in the registry, and it amazes me why it is not the case...
Try the on-board phone storage directory.. there should be a folder called "My Ringtones" in Windows or another folder. Sound files put in the section are available to use as ringtones only, not for notifications and alerts.
I have my ringtones in \My Documents on my device memory. It works perfectly well, and it also means they get backed up with MyPhone.
Thanks for your replies, but I specifically want to make my rings work from the Windows directory...
Most of them are there anyway and I cannot move them because they are marked as part of the ROM. So that's why I want all my rings there.
The thing is they don't appear in settings, even though Windows is set as the default ring directory in the registry...
I deleted a ringtone file on my SD Card/My Documents but it still appears as an option when I choose a Ringtone. Is there a way to go through the registry to delete it?
when you select a ring tone on the sd card and "set it as device ring tone" the phone copies it to my documents/my ringtones. So... it's still on the phone.

For me, when i put on the folder My Documents, it already appears as a selectable ringtone. I tried what you said, but i don't see a folder My Ringtones appear. I've been opening every folder on my SD Card. I still can't find the deleted ringtone anywhere...
Just to clarify, I'm talking about the settings Sound & Display. The ringtone still appears there, and plays the tune, but i'm unable to locate that ringtone on my sdcard.
Windows ringtone default directory
It's in the \Windows\Rings directory.
Alert tones for sms are in \Windows directory. Filenames are prefixed with Ring-.

I have this feeling I'm not explaining myself clearly enough.. I've attached screenshots to better explain myself
Screen Shot 01:
That is what my My Documents folder in my SD Card looks like.
Screen Shot 02:
As they are located in the My Documents folder, they appear as selectable ringtones
Screen Shot 03:
However, there is one ringtone which appears there "I Think I Love You -" that is not contained inside the My Documents folder
Screen Shot 04:
I have checked the My Device\Windows\ Rings folder and have not found the file there either.
So my question is, where can the file be? And how can i completely remove it? Thank you.
hmmmmm.
Locate at My Device\My Documents. Check "My POI" and "My Ringtones" folders.

Thanks =) Found it in the My Ringtones folder of My Device.
Windows Mobile default is to only allow you to select audio files from the: "SYSTEM ROOT:\Windows" folder for Notification (txt msgs, etc.) alerts. I assume this is a registry entry in the Windows Mobile. I am looking for a CAB or one to be made that changes the Notifications to check the "SYSTEM ROOT:My Documents\My Ringtones" same as it does with Ringtones.
Is there anything like this???
i want that toooo! so that i can have "DROID!" for my notification
Windows t nes"
Windows t nes"
For my old WM6 also sounds in "\Storage Card\My Documents" are read. Did not check on "My Documents" but it should work as well. Mind that subfolders of above do NOT work.
