Need Help Access ringtones from Storage card using Contacts

Hi All,
Is there any registry hack where i can set the ringtones which are on my SD card for specific contact using the contacts.
Regards,
Fesar.

I read it somewhere here that we can just save the ringtones under the root folder in storage card... when i did that, i can assign the ringtone to contacts... works for me. Try it

Just place all your ringtones in the storage card NOT in any folder. Then go to your contacts choose one, Edit it and Select the Ringtone Tab. You'll see there all your available ringtones
Choose... and you're set

root directory???

if some one says to save somthing on my root directory of my storage card how do i do that?

Problem with Camera writing to Storage card

I have this strange problem I can't figure out
I can take a photo and save it to the internal memory, but not the Storage Card. The camera recognizes teh storage card when I insert it, asks me if I want to make it the default storage location, but when I take pictures, nothing gets saved.
I can put files on the storage card just fine.
any thoughts?
TIA

Does it repeatedly ask if you want to save to storage card?
When you check has it resorted to Main?
Do you have the Network folder enabled?
If so then check through this:
Hermes Camera
Camera Save/Storage Problems
Specifying your own location in registry=
HKLM - Software - HTC - Camera - Image - SaveFolder - xyz
where xyz is your folder name, but note this folder will be added as a subfolder of the following (in this case storage card) auto added path:
/Storage Card/My Documents
Note that setting a location or name other than the defaults will result in problems viewing pictures via the application, though they can be view by locating and opening files individually.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Camera\Image]
value of "Saveto" = 0 will save images to main memory
value of "Saveto" = 1 will save images to storage card
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.

"\Storage Card\My Documents" corrupted?!??
So I tried to make the changes above, and I discovered that my "\Storage Card\My Documents" folder must somehow be corrupt. I can't even create a "My Pictures" sub-folder to do the Regedit fixes above. BTW, I WAS able to create a new folder in "\Storage Card"
Any idea why this is happening?

How about using active sync explore function on PC. Delete the folders and recreate \Storage Card\My Documents\My pictures

Storage Card 2 problem

Having an issue with my Wing, hoping someone can help. I had my Wing connected to my PC today, iFonz was the only app running. I wanted to copy some movies to my Wing and I know that copying directly to the microSD is infinitely faster than going through Activesync, so I popped out my card, put it in my reader and copied the movies. When it was done I put the card back in my phone.
So I'm at work today and want to send a text to my brother, hit the SMS button on iFonz, and it crashed. No big deal I thought, I'll just relaunch it, crashes happen. So I relaunch iFonz... nothing... so I try to launch Resco File Explorer... nothing... interesting. So I fire up the normal WM file explorer, it seems my SD card is now called Storage Card2. Storage Card is still shown, but doesn't load anything when selected. So now whenever a lnk is looking for a program on my SD card it doesn't find it.
Any one know a way to fix this? I tried resetting w/ the card in and w/o the card in, same issue. 8*(

I seem to have fixed it. I fired up Resco off the SD card, deleted the Storage Card directory on the Wing, then soft reset. The Wing recognized the SD card as Storage Card again and all is good. 8*)

I've run into this a few times as well. It only happens to me if i left an app running in the background or with certain today modules. I've always had to use the same solution as you did.

I think the cause would be if there is a registry tweak that redirects database directory to the Storage Card and you removed it and did a soft reset, it would actually create a directory automatically even though your SD is not there! And what you would do is pop the SD in again and that would create the Storage Card2 directory.
Fix i think would be, delete the Storage Card directory using Resco Explorer, turn off the phone, insert your SD then turn the phone again.

The only registry tweaks I've done are to change the font colors for the today screen, so that wasn't it (of course an app might have done something).
I don't know the offending application, but something must have wanted to write to the /storage card/ folder on the phone. When the card itself wasn't there it simply created the directory it needed to write the data to. Like I said tho', the simple solution was just to delete the newly created /storage card/ directory, make sure the card is in, soft reset.

How to fix it easily
Okay, just go to file explorer on your phone. You will see storage card2 with the black icon on it and another folder that says storage card. Delete "storage card," and take out your storage card. Then put it back in, and it will just say "Storage Card."

Storage Card / Storage Card2? Problem...

I have come across this problem recently and I think it was caused by me disconnecting AS before the sync was complete.
I have a 16gb SD card in my THD which used to be called 'Storage Card' in Total Commander. Following the incident, the card has now been renamed 'Storage Card2' by the system and shows as a small external drive in the file settings. 'Storage Card' exists in aswell in Total Commander and Windows Explorer (when linked through AS) but there is only one card when connected as a USB device.
HTC Album recognises 'Storage Card' but it has all the maps etc for TomTom but I cannot get it to see 'Storage Card2' where the photos are.
I cannot rename it, using Windows Explorer or TC.
The only way I resolved the issue previously was to do a hard-reset which I don't obviously want to do.
So...has anyone come across this before and how did you solve it?
Thanks

I encountered similar problem, not with blackstone though. I used my LG KS20 back then.
I suspected the cause is: the phone cannot detect sd card while some program tries to write to 'Storage Card'. Therefore this program just create a new folder. And since there is a folder named 'Storage Card' already, when the phone detects the sd card, it is named as 'Storage Card2'.
For my case, I noted that the 'Storage Card' folder might be created by one of the software i used, galarm. For your case, some program might have created the folder when you connect the phone to pc as external usb drive.
How I solved it: I deleted 'Storage Card' (but make sure that there is no data that i need inside the directory). Take out and put back in my sd card.
It should work for you too.

Worked a treat, thanks.
Can now show my girlfriend what the THD is like compared to her iPhone with the Album software

Plug the SD-card to your PC, copy the data inside the folder "Sorage Card2" into the same folder under your "Storage Card" and delete the folder "Storage Card2".
That´s all
