(noob thread)mkv not copying to sgs2! - Galaxy S II General

explorer is crashing every time i transfer an mkv file. avi,jepg etc gets transferred fine. any one else having this issue?
update:i have found a fix (sort of) enabling usb debugging seem to do the job

How big is the file you want to transfer? If it's more then 4GB then you found the problem.

You can see it from screenshot 1,98 GB.
It's rather a Windows problem like I see it. Maybe faulty codecs..

it plays fine on my pc.

There is a USB mode setting, try to change it I don't remember the actual name anymore. (on the phone)

And if you change extension, then once it is copied change extension again. Does that work?

read my original post. i have a fix, just enable usb debugging mode.

If not have you tried the Kies Air? It's convenient for when I'm transferring to and from the uni computers and haven't got my usb.

wm2003 4.01.12 deleted my files?

after installed it on my t-mobile mda n' passed several difficult trouble on radiostack, this os such a great thing that i expect to figure on my pda. but, later i realized that the os didn't fit my expectation when its began to erase my files on the sdcard 'misteriously'.
a thing that make me become so so bad, the size of files doesn't match with the used area on the card, what kind of trouble is this? they erased my files but the space didn't change..
is there any idea to get my files back before i'm goin' to format it?
how to avoid it in the future?
thx for read it..
The only way to avoid it is to write protect the memory card by moving the slider switch to lock position.
slider switch...
thank's for ur answer, it migth be useful, but can you point the position of the slider? whether it's.on the pda or on memory? l'm using visipro mmc 256mb, n' i don't see any slider on lt.
thx.

Only SDCard has a write protect slider, and U'r using MMC not SDCard.
I have a same problem before, my SDCard erased, it happened twice, and I run the SD_Fix registry file, since 2 months this problem never happen any more.
How do I run this file?
Thanks

Yes, but how? I have it on my PPC and when I click it, it says: "There is no applicationassociated with SD_FIX (working)". Run the application first then open the file from within the application".

Sorry, I forgot to advise you to install Registry Editor Program on your PPC first. (e.g. PHM Reg edit)
hi,
it's quite good, i alo thought that but i had installed "regeditce" prog so the file doesn't associate .
I'd installed the PHM as u mentioned above and ran the SD_fix but it didn't react (install or import..ect), it just opened the PHM program. Hence, i dont know whether it's imported to the registry or not now i'm waiting and hope the problem will be solved.
Thank you all
Unfortunately, it doesn't work w­ell, after running that file, i installed two programs on storage card (HandMap and E-dictionary). Then I tried to soft reset and my MMc card was erased. oh, what can i do now ?

Where is the SD_fix.reg file
Hi,
How can I get the SD_fix.reg file? Thanks
hi,
the file is above
I think that the .reg file is exported form a key in REGISTRY, but when i run it, it isn't imported to the defined key exactly so the card is still erased
Help me, thanks 'coz i like the 4.01.16 of T-Mobile
hi all,
Let use "Resco registry" to import SD_fix to Registry. It's okay now

how to store incoming(bluetooth/ir) files on storage card

hey you all geniuses out there a few questions :
how to store incoming(bluetooth/ir) files on storage card directly ?
anybody tried a different /better bluetooth stack on universal and know where i can download one ? something with which i can browse using a pc without activesync ?
anymore wirelss(bluetooth/ir/wifi) hacks ?
thanx
I would also like to know how you can set your universal to save all incoming bluetooth/IR files directly to your storage card?????
The reason is because when my freind wants to bluetooth an album of MP3's to me in the pub i have to stop him after each song has downloaded so i can cut and paste them to my storage card otherwise they just dissappear if i run out of room on the phone.
Im sure Alot of people are finding this a problem and im supriase no one has raised this issue before.
Thank you for your help in advance

Great find. It would be nice to know if it does work for the Universal.
hey thanx ! i tried it, it does work on the universal and stores files on the storage card even. I have tried with smaller files but will try with bigger files and check whether it is actually downloading files to storage card or just moving them there once the download is complete.

SELMA folder in Storage Card

OK so there is a folder [ SELMA ] In my storage card , and when I want to delete it it says access denied and stuff.
I think it's a virus , or something and after connecting my moms phone [ HD ] she now also has this SELMA thing ..
Please give me a way to delete it.
do you mean after connecting your moms phone to your pc?
if so then id definitely be very worried.
whats in the folder?
I'm not sure , if it was there before or after I connected it to my laptop , but since I have it to on my HD2 , probably from my laptop , but when I search for the file on my laptop I can't find it.
And when I connect the phone to my laptop top and open my storage card , it doesn't show there :/
Once when I opened it it had 2 files , one something with Bajrami , I think.
Apparently Selma Bajrami is a singer.
Please help
Edit : Now when I open SELMA FILE it has nothing in it.
Wht don't you try to format your card?
lol Oo
copy ur files from sd card to ur pc.. then format the sd card and copy back
i think that should kill the folder ^.^
Haha , I don't know why I didn't think about that.
Thanks
Ok so a couple of days ago I formatted the storage card.
And ofcourse it got deleted.
But then after a while another folder comes up named SETISE

I would say get a better virus scanner, that is typical of a virus, I would say your laptop is infested ...
if you don't want to buy a new AV goto someplace like http://www.avast.com they have a free one ...
Or AVG
Problem is , that virus may stop any new AV proggies from installing and working correctly ...

If Avast will not remove it for you, search google for strojan/kristal, it appears to be a rootkit virus, they can be a pain to get rid of ... but Google should give you some answers ...
There are some rootkit removal tools out there, if they support this one you should be able to get rid of it, also try Malwarebytes, it might do it for you and they have a free trial ...

one more thing , you can schedule Avast to do a boot time scan, it will scan before windows loads, may be able to get rid of it that way ....

I am willing to bet you have had it for a while, it is actually an older virus, from early '09 , it infects exe files , so you could have gotten it from anywhere, and it also , I think it say it can be spread across networks .....

Cannot download mp3s and .apk

Hi all, I seem to have a strange problem - I cannot download files of some kinds, like .apk files. There is a message saying the type of file is not supported on my device. Do you know if I can download them anyway, bypassing this? Thank you in advance. (a friend of mine with the same firmware doesn't have that problem)
how are you trying to "download" those?
just copy and past from your computer to the USB when the phone is plugged in

no, i mean by the browser.
use the option to save as
you might need to install another browser like Skyfire for example or OperaMini
I have downloaded apk files using the stock browser, so that's shouldn't be an issue.

PC to USB SD Card?

I connect my Android HD2 to my PC via USB and copy files (APK) to my SD Card. I check to see that the files on on my SD Card and they show as being there. Then I disconnect from my PC.
1. Turn on USB Storage
2. Connect without Scan
3. Open Folder via Windows 7.
4. Recheck to see if the files are displayed on the SD Card - Yes they show again.
5. Close the SD Card view on PC
6. Disconnect USB
7. Sometimes I can see the files and install while other times I cannot see the files. It is not consistent. I have been trying to figure this out for over a week without any consistent results. It seems to be hit or miss.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
I generally boot into WinMo to transfer files to SD, takes a couple of minutes extra but saves me this kind of hassle

Once you've transferred your file to your phone, disconnect the USB cable, go into setting and unmount your SDcard and then mount it again. Now you should be able to see all your transferred files.

Thank you! However, when you enter a Title a screen does come up with suggested like titles. If I am the 1,000th person to ask this question, it must be buried amongst the other 1,000,000 postings that have been asked again. If we stopped all the BS about people going back and forth and simply provide a link instead of a lecture, maybe this forum would be cleaner. Example:
1. How would I or anyone else know to check your replies to these questions in your profile? Who R U????
2. Use Droid Explorer here instead of Windows Explorer. I use the search function.
3. Know your facts before you get bent out of shape the next time.
4. If you would have taken the time to try and help instead of trying to play 'KNOW IT ALL' you could have saved some time.
5. If you think I am lazy, Tough Stuff.
6. MYOB!!!

to be honest i never got this working.. when i want to transfer files i usually boot into wm or turn off the phone and take the card out..

I have used the option of Rebooting into WM then copy files to SD and that always worked. However, I have never turned off phone and take out SD Card. Try it without turning off phone and removing card.
Just reboot into WM, USB to PC, copy files to SD then go into your File Explorer and install from there without - turn off phone and removing card.
Let us know if that worked for you.
