i got XDA Trion, but for some reason when i start the camera, it will prompt me that i have installed a storage device and if i wish to have it as my default storage for my pics and videos. However it never does, i cant even choose the storage card as a means activating it as a default storage. i got 2GB sandisk Mircro SD. Can someone help me or if theres already been a thread like this, post the link coz i tried the search but i couldnt find any similiar to the problem that i have. regards.
It's most likely because either you or an application has enabled the network folder. See here:

How to?
So how do i disable it then? sorry but im a noob so please bare with
Ok, as I can't remember if you can enable/disable the network folder in the File Explorer (already installed on your device). I suggest you download Total Commander:
arm/xscale/pxa
This downloads a cab file that you move directly to your SD card and then on the phone tap the file to install it to your storage card (with me so far?)
Once you get it installed let us know and someone will tell you how to disable the network folder using Total Commander.
By the way Total Commander is a very nice application that has many uses as I'm sure you will learn if you hang around XDA-Dev for a while.

Cool!
Thank you, i got it sorted now, my camera saves all the pics and vids on my storage card now.

after several reg hacks and program installs, a lot of files and folders on my storage card are not there. For example the folder "Program Files" is not there so my apps are gone, also DCIM which has all my pics from my digital camera.
I know the files are still there because Its a 1 gig card and on spb today plug in it sas 570mb used but when i open it and select all the files and folders available and click on properties it says they are only 223mb so i'm missing 347mb worth of files, most of them pics which i really want, they're from my vacation last week and still haven't backed them up!
----------edit--------------------------------------------
got it!! i thought about it and figured out this wasn't a ppc specific problem, so i did some research, first got a couple hits to some websites that assist you in recovering pics off digital camera memory cards and figured out all i needed was a data recovery program. I used GetDataBack and its working perfectly!
hi
am having exactly the same problem. do you need a special format of getdataback to install on the wizard? once you find the files do you copy them elsewhere or do they just then show up on the memory card?
thanks
Just somewhere this last weekend, my TyTn refused to store images taken with the camera on/to the storagecard. I cannot select the storagecard thru the capture-settings.
The storage-card is accesible thru the explorer without any trouble.
Very strange. Have searched the forum, but cannot find a solution, my ext. Rom is hidden. So, anyone experienced the same problem.
I do run Schaps 3.54c

When in the camera application what two locations does it offer you as save locations?
Did you enable the Network Folder? If so see here:
Usually the camera only asks about storage card when you have just inserted a new card OR you have the "network" folder enabled.
Now unfortunately the camera is only capable of saving to one of two locations at any one time so:
If the view network folder is NOT enabled you will be offered:
"Main" or Storage card" and once set it will remember your choice and not ask again.
BUT
with Network folder enabled and a storage card inserted you will:
be asked if you want to use "StorageCard" every time you start Camera, but in camera tools you will only be offered "Main" or "Network" even if you chose the card. It will not set to storage card even if you said you wanted this when camera started.
So, if you want to use main memory with a storage card inserted and don't want the silly question about using storage card each time, then you must disable the network folder. (Use Resco or File Commander to do this - forget now if regukar File Explorer does it)
Equally if you want to save to storage card you will also need "network" folder disabled otherwise it will save to Main memory even when you say yes to Storage Card on start up of application.
The default setting for the Network folder is disabled, so if you are having problems it is likely to have been enabled by using the likes of Resco or Total Commander.

Thanks !!
Thanks Mike Channon...it worked very well !!!
Hi all.
Yesterday i got my new HTC wizard.
Today i unlocked it via lockwiz and instaled SPB shell 3.0.1 (keeping WM5)
All is working great and i am very happy with the phone.

i have instaled a memory of 2GB, total comander and file explorer reads that, i have instaled music to, but my camera dont. what can i do?
regards and excuses my weak english
UP
any one knows how to?
sniff still i cant save my pictures
That may because your phone can't recognize the storage card. Maybe you can try to flash the rom to test the sd. More helps are needed.

Hi,
I bought unbranded sim-free HD2 with 1.48 ROM. Since i bought the phone, I never installed any software on internal storage. I always select SD Card.
Yesterday I tried to download a 65MB file on my SD card through Opera and I got error insufficient storage.
My HD2 shows Total Storage = 181.47 MB, Used = 105.63 MN and Free 75.84 MB.
Could you please share how much free storage you have and how can i increase the free storage in my phone.
Thanks
Guys,
Please guide me to increase my internal memory
To be honest, that sounds pretty normal. I'm suprised you'd be trying to download a file of that size to your phone.
Can you not just download it on your PC and then (if it needs to be on your phone) copy it across using a USB cable?
Edit:
There are methods of freeing up some space - search for moving cache files and you'll probably find something.
Usually I'm not as patient as members like Skip or Antonio to name a few, but you could take a look at this or this or this or this or this or this or this or this or this post.

From time to time you need do some clean ups get rid of caches caused by different apps. HTC album, facebook,...
In case of download you can also have a look at #65 in the thread mentioned above. Move the opera cache to the storage card and you will be able to download the file vie browser as well. The downloaded fie is loaded into the phone storage ...

Thanks for OPera cache tip. I'll try that
Hi pda_crazy
The 181.47 is your onboard flash storage, you need to see SD Card under settings>SD Card & Phone Settings down the bottom
Your phone is not detecting your card because it is probably corrupt, I tried to reformat my 2GB SD that came with my phone because mine was not detecting the SD card and windows said it was corrupt. Purchased a new 8GB MicroSD and was able to format disk and since then the phone recognises it and had no problems.
Hope that helps
Try the attached cleantemp program,
in the menu/main settings change the custom folders to:
1. windows/opera/profiles/cache
2. application data/htc/album/cache
3. windows/youtube ( you may not see this directory if you dont use youtube)
Clean the phone
This should help
like 4tune said: there are some threads, which explains, how to save main storage, also sticky posts. just use search function of Board in Leo-Area.
e.g. "save or free" "main storage"
or
"move google maps to storage card" (would save 20-40 mb)
or
"treesize mobile" (free app which shows you where/how much you have stored - perhaps you know it from your PC)
And everywhere also the same remark all above: install as much as possible and senseful for you by default to storage card.
I'm a T-Mobile Rep and stumbled upon this thread when trying to help a customer set his default storage to the SD Card. While I was reading this thread the customer actually solved his own problem.
Go to MarketPlace, Select Menu, go into settings. You will then see where you can set the default storage to Memory Card. I'm an android guy but I'm learning more and more about Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, and even Nokia/Ovi/Symbian.
Cheers!
It seems that Opera 9 saves downloads to a folder on the phones 'device memory', but it doesn't always delete them when you tell opera to do so in the downloads menu tab.
It saves them too: \My Device\Windows\opera9\profile\download
When I deleated most of the files there, it released over 110 MB of space in the device storage .
I wonder where other programs save similar files?

Ok So I am here because I've posted in other places in these forums with no replies yet, So it would be better to create a thread specific to my problem.
I have an Omnia 2, thinking of acquiring the Fryo 2.2 OS, not specific about wether I want what version but here are the problems I come across before being able to install it.
1- plugging in my phone under Settings -> My storage will not show my storage on my computer, having the external SD option will show my 16GB SD card.
2- Backing up. How do I back up my storage if I can't see it on my computer? When I turn on active sync a blank storage appears other than my SD card (assuming its the internal storage) but the size seems rather small (167MB). I've been reading peoples' posts and I'm supposed to have around 2GB I believe, and either way the files I'm trying to put inside for the android OS don't seem to fit there.
3- Partitions? How can I set those up for both the internal and external storage? Is there a program or feature to do so? My SD card under properties says FAT-32 so I'm not sure on how to do it IF I need to.
4- Using a W7 computer, so that knocks off any ubuntu installations, and also link is broken for Almars Beta 1 file that I was thinking of using for an SD installation.
Any help would be appreciated, I've had this phone since 2009 and I'm really hoping I can come across some help to make it work since I do want to keep this phone for a bit longer before I spend more money on a different cellphone!
Thank you!
Try out the new CyanogenMod from the link below.
http://windows.modaco.com/topic/346446-cyanogenmod-beta1-omnia-2-updated-02122011/
It has the SD Card auto installer, try it..
Back up data on your SD card first and then format your SD card within the phone and then use auto installer to install it.
As you said your computer wont detect the My Storage, try the steps below..
Transfer your data from My Storage to external SD Card, then connect your phone to computer using My Storage mode in settings.
Download Mini Tool partition wizard and format your My Storage (Mini tool partition will be able to see your My Storage even though your computer doesn't).
After format, your computer should be able to detect My Storage.
Now copy the downloaded android files to My Storage and run the auto installer as instructed in the ReadMe file inside the download package.
PS: Don't forget to backup the data on SD Card to your computer
Hope this helps
Ok so what you meant by taking things from my storage is going to file explorer and basically copying everything from the "my device" to the SD card?
Just want to make sure because if it doesent work then I haven't gotten anything backed up right.
Went to file explorer -> copied everything in the top folder which is application date, connMgr, doc and setttings, program files etc. is this all thats needed basically?
Thanks
P.S some of the things I tried taking like global.txt or exe couldn't be copied because of violations or some weird error, is it alright not to have those?
Update: My storage is still not revealed by the mini tool partition program, went under usb settings -> my storage and refreshed disk information, nothing shows up ugh it might be impossible for me to do this after all....
nobody can help me in regards to this? well then I guess a new cellphone is in order
grrrrr I should've gone with a iphone 3G or BB 9700 at the time instead...

I guess you will have to reflash the ROM again since your problem seems to be unsolvable. My suggestions is to flash a stock 6.5.3 ROM before you transfer the auto SD installer.
