[SOLUTION] Syncing Mediamonkey with HD2 :: SOLVED !! - HD2 General

Hi all,
I know many of u guys out there must have atleast faced a problem of syncing with Mediamonkey and our beloved HD2.
I for one was extremely fed up and asked the MM support staff about this.
I did see the one post where a guy had asked about this...
However here is the solution :
===========================================================
Problem : MM not syncing to desired path in HD2 storage card, with the songs being placed in the root directory.
===========================================================
Solution : (as posted by MM)
Some Zen devices, Sony Walkman NWZ-A828 and several Mobile phones ( Nokia 5800, HTC Desire) exhibit a bug
with MediaMonkey causing synchronization to copy tracks to the device's
root directory, ignoring the destination mask. In the sync may be
incomplete. A generalized fix is not yet available, however, a workaround
that is specific to these devices is to modify the MediaMonkey.ini file by
adding the following:
[WMDM]
COMApartmentThreading=1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The MediaMonkey database stores all information in the MediaMonkey library, including
Track Metadata, Synchronization rules, and Filter configuration. Most configuration data
is stored in an .ini file that saves configuration information on a per-user basis (the
exception being some configuration related to Views which is stored in the registry).
These files are stored in different locations depending on the version of MediaMonkey
and the operating system.
To modify any of these files, first make sure that MediaMonkey has been closed. You can
then use the following tools to edit the files:
o .ini files can be edited with a text editor such as Notepad
o .mdb files can be edited (at your own risk) with Access (MediaMonkey 2.x)
o .db files can be edited with various tools that support SQLite
Here are the default locations of these files:
MediaMonkey 3.0:
o Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Local Settings\Application Data\MediaMonkey\MM.DB
C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Local Settings\Application Data\MediaMonkey\MediaMonkey.ini
o Windows 7 / Vista:
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\MediaMonkey\MM.DB
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\MediaMonkey\MediaMonkey.ini
MediaMonkey 2.5:
o Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\My Documents\My Music\MediaMonkey\MediaMonkey.mdb
C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\My Documents\My Music\MediaMonkey\MediaMonkey.ini
o Windows Vista, MediaMonkey 2.5 is not Fully compatible with Vista
See: http://www.mediamonkey.com/support/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=56
NOTE: If you cannot see these files, it likely means that you need to enable viewing of hidden files/folders.
In Windows explorer, go to Tools > Folder options. Select the View tab and check "Show hidden files and folders".
The folders and files listed should now be accessible.
CHEERS

Feedback
hey to all u ppl who use MM, do leave ur feedback on the above .
\BTW : MM is the best syncing music software there is ...
Extremely good for ur HD2

I've never had a problem with my hd2 and MM. I just click disk drive on my hd2 when connecting it. Make a folder called My Music in the sdcard. and right click on my hd2 playlist, click send to and navigate to the My Music folder.
Edit: My bad it wasn't synced. Or at least I never tried to.

Ahh true.. the playlist function works in that regard...
But what i pointed out was that when u setup custom directory listing in MM to sync
For eg
/Music/Artist/Album/Song title
*I do this coz i use S2P*
MM was not following any rules in regard to this area.

Thank you!
I have a HTC Incredible and when I switched to Windows 7 I started having this problem. After editing the .ini file I no longer have any issues...

unable to open pocket word files they are NOT .doc extension

I copied some files from my QTEK S110 onto a friends laptop and they copied accross OK although they did not have a .doc file exension (it was something else) and then when I tried to open them from the new location I could not even after associating that file extension with WORD.
Whats going on?
Also does anyone know how I can se the file extensions of all files and unhide hidden files in file explorer on my pocket pc.
thx
the file extension for pocket word is *.psw to use them on word on pc i think it has to be converted. In pocket word you can click on tools then Save Document As.. do that and under the drop down list of file type you can save it as .doc .rtf .psw .txt and another file type.
about the hidden files if you tap the screen and hold it in the explorer and a menu will come up and theres a selection there for view all files, it unhides some files but not all files. I use Profiexplorer which comes with profimail which is a indepth explorer. it shows all files aswell as file extensions and you can change file extensions and so on
Simply set the active sync option to convert the Pocket Word <-> Word files on transfer. I though this was on by default.
Of course if you don't copy via AS (e.g. via the SD card), it won't convert.
@ fone_fanatic
Thanks
@ mtbsoft
"Of course if you don't copy via AS (e.g. via the SD card), it won't convert."
Sorry I didnt understand the sentence above. What does AS stand for? AND Did you mean that if I have copied my *.psw file onto my main memory (Permanent Save) that "Simply set the active sync option to convert the Pocket Word <-> Word files on transfer" wont work
I havent tried Active Sync yet.
AS = Active Sync
This converts the format for you when copying from one to the other.

If you haven't tried ActiveSync (AS) then you must be transferring the files via the SD card or perhaps BT or IR? This won't convert them - ActiveSync can convert the files on the fly as you transfer them between device and PC.
@ thebrit
Thanks
@ mtbsoft
Thanks yes I am using BT though I do not have an SD card they are saved into my RAM - The S110 has 128MB instead of the usual 64. Thanks for your help

Placed everything in the right place and gave it a run. I have a Samsung Omnia with a WinMo 6.1 rom.
I noticed I doesn't seem to suport uniconde. The "Storage Card" drive is called "Cartão de Memória" in my localization and mplayer crashes everytime I tried to launch it... Really hope you fix this one. Also hope you add a simple GUI soon.
Also may I suggest that the file that need to be placed in the "My documents" folder be placed in the same folder as the mplayer.exe instead.
And please release the source.
doesent work for me, i tried to open AVI Files and MP3's too

There You have your answer
I noticed I missed that. I was already editing my post when you replied
Also just tried an FLV1 file from my device memory (from "Cartão de memória didn't work). At first the file wouldn't play but then I used WVGAFIX3 to change my device resolution from WQVGA to QVGA and it worked. Seems like it deslikes wide screens.

attach log.txt , that will give better idea why exectution failed
For the directory name charater issue (Cartão de memória) it just crashes on launch. It was when I tried to launch mplayer directly (before I edited the post). I was however how I found the issue. If I try the "Open with" and the media file is in any dir which characters like those it just wont open...
Also strangelly enough the same video file is no longer crashing in WQVGA resolution?! Only GSFinder+ (my file manager) crashes. I did a reset since that so maybe it was a problem with my device and not mplayer. Still the character issue remains.
Here's the log.txt (media in "Cartão de memória") for when it failed and worked.log when it played (in a different path)

yes it is more likely because of no unicode support right now. I have idea how to support so that will be fixed in next build.
New mplayer download from first post and share your experiance
latest svn compile with menu and bgvideo support for audio files

HTC Audio Manager v2 - Playlists?

Does anyone know where HTC Audio Manager v2 stores the playlists? Or ideally a link to a current user guide for the Audio Manager application?
The previous versions used to store playlists in the directory /application data/HTC/AudioManager_Eng/playlists. It was possible to copy the file to PC and manually edit (albeit tricky).
The latest version no longer seems to store playlists anywhere obvious - so must be embedded in a database somewhere. I want to be able to copy the playlists to the PC (and ideally amend / import into Windows Media Player).
Can anyone help?
Cheers

[TUTORIAL]How to Copy PDF/Office Files to your WP7 Phone Directly from Computer

hi folks, i finally got a way to copy office / PDF files directly from computer, these files will show up in Office Hub/ Adobe Reader's Document List
before you start, make sure you get TouchXplorer work on your phone.
1. you need to do some registry hacks to make the wp7 device visible in My Computer/ Explorer , here you can see the tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915664.
OR: Modify these Registry Entries
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\VID_045E&PID_04EC&MI_00\6&210a541a&0&0000\Device Parameters]
"EnableLegacySupport"=dword:00000001
"PortableDeviceNameSpaceExcludeFromShell"=dword:00000000
"ShowInShell"=dword:00000001
Once you're done , CLOSE ZUNE, you should see 2 wp7 devices in your computer, they're exactly the same. just choose one open it and you'll see folders like Album Video Music etc, these are your zune folders.
[TIP], if you open your device/storage and see nothing there, you have to delete one registry key and reconnect your phone.
the registry key is :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\VID_045E&PID_04EC&MI_00\6&210a541a&0&0000\
Device Parameters\DeviceSelectiveSuspended]
delete that key , and you'll see those Zune folders.
2. now we can copy files to the Phone and make them show up in Office Hub or Acrobat Reader.
first, pick one of the Zune Folders, never create one 'cause you'll never see it from the Phone. just use the existing folders , i recommend "Video" folder.
copy a file to the Video folder, eg. officetest.docx,
open your touchXplorer, goto "My Documents"\"Zune"\"Content"
you'll see folders like 0100 0200 0300 0400 0600, these are the music / pictures / video folders of zune, and all files inside are named using numbers.
now open "0400"(in my case, might be different on other phones, you have to find it yourself) and you'll see a folder named "02", open this "02" folder, what do you see?? yes,a "20.z"(the number varies) file, this is exactly the officetest.docx you just copied to phone.
rename the "20.z" files back to "officetest.docx" using TouchXplorer , double click the file ,it will open in office .
you can cut it, and paste to \My Documents of your phone, open Office Hub, you just have the "officetest.docx" there
even you renamed the "20.z" file and moved it to \My Document. you can still see the "officetest.docx" in the "Video" folder on your computer, you should delete the "officetest.docx" to save some space, it's safe, actually, when you rename the "20.z" file to "officetest.docx", the phone did a copy job , not just rename.
EASY Enough ???
3. well, you can do the same with .PDF files if you installed the Adobe Reader.
once you renamed this "xx.z" (xx is a number) back to eg. "mypdffile.pdf" using TouchXplorer, you may try to double tap the pdf file and open it. but to PDF files , it's NOT working, the adobe reader will say "invalid path"
I know exactly what's going on, office files are opened by office apps like word etc. they're WP7 Stock programs from M$ and got very high privileges, they can access any folders. but to poor Adobe Reader, it can only access its isolated storage.
so what we need to do is: find adobe reader's isolated storage folder and move the "mypdffile.pdf" there, you can then double tap the file and open it. and when you open Adobe Reader , you'll see the "mypdffile.pdf" right under the "Documents" list.
the Adobe Reader's IsolatedStorage folder is at
Code:
\Applications\Data\BC4F319A-9A9A-DF11A490-00237DE2..\Data\IsolatedStore
just put the pdf files here
-------------------------------------------
PS:
1. I'm chinese and my english sucks, sorry if you can't understand
2. the office program on WP7 and Adobe Reader 9.0 for WP7 really sucks
Nice Tutorial
Will check it out later.
Agree with you on 1 thing, Adobe of Windows Phone 7 sucks.
Office on the other hand is great.
please can you explain exactly what registry you must delete to see the folders thanks.....

I think it's easier to email yourself with your needed documents, and then downloading it with the phone from the email.

to me , i have some huge documents , over 50MB each, i have to copy them this way 'cause no email service can attach such big file.
18MB
I sent myself an 18MB PDF file earlier today. Checked my email on my Windows Phone 7 Device. Clicked the file once (waited for it download). Then clicked the file again to open. Adobe Reader was blank for about 15 seconds then loaded it.
I used Windows Live Mail
Nice one, I will have a look to see if I can place mobi and prc files that are for e-book reading using amazon kindle in its own isolated storage area as well.
I am 99% confident that this will work just need to keep track of the new files and should only be needing a chang to .mobi or .prc for it show up in the kindle app (that is if you have tagged your books correctly)

yes , this would work, just find your kindle program's isolated storage folder.
i suggest look into your \application\install folder to locate the kindle program, there're a lot of GUID Named folders. open one by one until you find the kindle program, remember this GUID, and find the same GUID folder under \application\data you'll reach kindle's isolated storage
heeeelp
dear
i do the above
and i found 2 new devices
but no think inside it

Oh no what have you done?
What ROM are you using?
If it is XBmod/yukixda back to the future ROM, which came out 28 AUG why are you using instructions dated January?
I don't know what those registry hacks do.
If you know exactly what you did, tell us Exactly.
If not I think you will have to re-flash the ROM.
Good luck.
Still nothing is coming up in the folder. What do I do? and there is no folder in there starting with 6 they start with 7?
you can copy the files by using the sd reader,and then open it through the file manager...

File (not Folder) Sync residing in different folders in Windows

Hi, newby in Android, coming from WM and I have a trouble.....
When I was using WM in my HTC Trinity, I used a software (MightySync) that allowed me to select individual files from different folders in my PC (Windows 7) and copy them to the smartphone and keeping them sync'ed, allowing also to have them in different folders in the smartphone.
I'm now searching for a software that allows me to do a similar thing with the Android that my new HTC Sensation has and I don't find a way to do it.
I found different software that allow for copy and sync full folders, but not individual files. I wouldn't mind if everything goes in the HTC to the same folder, (better if I could place them in different ones as I did in my old Trinity), but the key thing is to be able to select the files to be copied and sync'ed from different folders in the PC, in order to be able to stay with the file organisation and clasification I have in the PC.
Any idea of help? I already had a look at the characteristics of several of them and tested, between others, "The Missing Sync", "Android Sync Manager WiFi", and some other ones.
Other way to do it could be to do a previous sync inside the Windows itself, doing a sync between the files in the different folders and a particular new "files to sync" folder in the Windows system and later on sync'ing that folder with the HTC, but I couldn't find a program to do it in the windows either, what I found also sync's full folders.
Thanks for your help.
