Ive tried emailing myself ringtones but my phone tells me I do not have the right format. Can someone please tell me the correct format and how can I put my own ringtones I created, from my comp, to my My touch 4g??
Make a directory on your sdcard named "/media/audio/ringtones" and put all of your ringtones in there. Then go to sounds on your phone and look for them. It may take a second for the phone to update them so check again if they aren't there.
Also, when you plug your phone into your computer and it sets itself up as a disk drive the phone will revert to a stock ringtone until you unplug it. It can't read the sdcard to use the ringtone while it is plugged in and used as a disk drive.
Is it possible to copy the ringtone on the SD card and paste it in the system/media/ringtone to make it a default one?
So that way when you do plug the phone into the computer it won't default to stock ringtone?

You will have to be rooted in order to do that, and have something like Root Explorer to copy a file into /system.
Rooted, yes. It works fine after reboot. The plus side is media room won't discover those sounds. Any sound on the sd card no matter which folder you put it in (unless it's hidden), android system will show them in media app.

I simply added a folder on my SD card and named it 'Ringtones'. I use an app called Rings Extended and use that as the default app to search and assign ringtones.
Root is NOT required to do it this way.
If you want to set your phone to default to 'Charge' when you plug it in and not 'Disk drive', just go to settings>connect to pc>default connection type>choose what default you want.

Go to audiko.net on ur phone and download whatever u want. They all end up in your downloads folder, u can jus go move them later when Ur at home or stationary. I usually move them right after I download them to my ringtones folder(that I created of course), keeps things organized.

Alternatively, you can also make a folder in your sd card named media/audio/ringtones.. That works for me...

Ok so you're screwed if ya wanna put a ringtone in the phone memory without rooting, right?
Just learning the android ropes now, coming from WinMo it's just so hard to believe that the phone storage is SO cut off from the user. I can see "locking" the system files/folders but since when you plug in to the pc you can't browse the card without cutting it off from the phone just seems silly. I do love my My Touch4G but I'm just spoiled on having access to ALL files.

All phones with an external sd card function this way. An sd can only be mounted to one device at a time; either your phone or to a computer. Unless you have a phone with two sd drives, ie. Galaxy S, you have to live with it.

If you use handcent for messaging, you dont need to create folders to use the ringtones.

Actually, you can assign any sound file on your sd card as a ringtone no matter where it is, with or without handcent. The folder directory is just to make sounds show up in the system's sounds settings. You can also assign ringtones through the music player.

That's my point, I wish I had access to the default ringers folder like the HD2 did, so when the card is "in use" via usb to my pc I would always have the same tones as when it wasn't plugged in to the pc
I do love the MTG4 but DAMN the locking you out of the simple basics...
This happened to me a lot with my MT3G, and I was very upset when it continued to happen on my G2. Since getting Winamp when it came out it hasn't done it to me for a while, but now it's doing it again. I can see the media on my SD card but when I goto music player or winamp nothing shows up.

Then magically it all may or may not appear.
What is going on here?
*wow it took forever for it to let me post...*
You SD card has to be mounted in order for your music to be seen. I see you have your usb attached, setting to disk drive will unmount your SD, hence your music is gone, and will magically reappear when you go to charge only or disconnect your usb.
The USB was definitely not the issue, that was just so I could DDMS screencap it. The only thing that seems to get it is removing all the stuff from card to PC, then reformatting it and load it back. It used to do this to me like once a week.
reloading my entire SD card fixed it. I am quite upset this issue came back. I duno what even causes it. The gallery was messed up too but not as bad.
Now I have a gallery that has hundreds of the exact same picture, which is the last picture I took in my camera gallery. WTF is up with that?
This shows the 894 Gallery that didn't exist this morning, is the same picture that I took last *Fondue Pot lol*
And it scrolls through this for several finger swipes... And when ya scroll through fast and it shows the date it is dates from June 2008-Present. So I am nervous to delete it
I think your SD Card is bad -- can you put it in a card reader attached to a PC and run error checking (right click on its drive icon then Properties then Error checking)
ALso, is this by any chance the same card you had in your previous phone?
Doesn't give me any errors otherwise. It's the 8GB that came with my G2, I had a 2GB and a 4GB in my MT3G
This would happen to me too. What folder is your music in?
Media/Audio/Music I think it is. It got relocated there once while trying to fix this problem in the past
That is definately weird. When the problem happens again, open up the development settings app and do a media scanner search. It should pop up again. I can see you're using CM, I've never ever had a problem like that, but have you tried any other roms? Also, I keep my music in a forder titled "My Music" on the root of my SD card. Maybe you could try that?
Ah yes, I've read about that media search before but haven't done that in forever so I forgot all about that. I shall try that if this happens again *hopefully doesn't* lol
I've also been planning on cleaning up my SD card a lot, and while I'm at it I'll relocate music. It used to just be on Root:/Music
Hi,
One thing that made me replace my SD card and drove me CRAZY, is the fact that I wasn't aware I had a .nomedia file in my camera folder.
When such a file exist in a folder, ALL content will not be shown in ANY media browser...
It started when I used some crappy picture browser that had the option to show/hide certain folders in gallery. I played around with it a while, tossed the app but I didn't know the app simply adds or removes these .nomedia files to the folders.
Maybe you can check if you have such a .nomedia in the folders where your music seems to "dissapear" ?
Secondly, about the duplicate pictures etc, try deleting the thumbnail cache.
You can also download an app from market called SDRescan, that forces to scan the SD card for new content.
Good luck!
Ooo that app sounds useful *searching*
I've recently gotten around to messing with .nomedia files, they do come in handy when ya want them lol. I definitly don't have one in that folder though because fully cloning the whole thing and replacing it on the SD gets it working again.
Do you mean just delete all the thumbs.db off my SD?
I would clear the contents of the .thumbnails directory in your DCIM or whatever folder you have for your camera images.
Next run SDRescan, and open gallery again. It might take a while re-indexing the contents but it should regenerate the thumbnails.
Folks
I still have the problem mentioned above?
I do the SDrescan. But after a few hours my lovely ringtone from my SD isnt set as ringtone anymore.
When I do the rescan , it finds it again but after a few hours it's lost again :'(
Any one got a solution?
i also use SDrescan and i only had 2 times since a rough start that my ringtone is switched to default.
PS: its a great app never had any trouble anymore that DoubleTwist did'nt find my music

Similar issue here with the music. Been going on for weeks. The worst part is I'll be listening to podcasts and once they disappear, it also loses where I had last paused. So gd annoying.

forget the rescan.
1 mount the sdcard in a reader, or via your phone to your computer.
2 copy the entire card to a directory on your pc.
3 format the card, after you verify there is a good copy of your stuff on the pc/mac
this next part can kill your phone and or card's contents if you point it at the wrong mount point. careful !
4 in a terminal, do this: $ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc1 bs=1M count=9000 (only do this to the exact hardware mount point of your sdcard, make sure by mounting and unmounting it once or twice)
if it finishes, or when you get tired of waiting, format the card again either in your mac or your phone. copy the contents THAT YOU KNOW ARE GOOD FILES back onto the card.
enjoy

guys, does someone have problems with dropbox upload?
i can't make this work properly... it always starts to upload, but stops at 32kb (or 4kbs when using titanium media sync).
weird thing is i can download just fine.
Same issue here on stock 1.72. 32Kb gets sent and no more.
I don't know a fix but it's not just you, if that helps.

Perhaps you could share a little more detail.
Are the transfers via WiFi/3G?
What network/carrier if 3G?

it's that simple...
several apps has "share" button, and when you have dropbox installed it is a option in menu, if i choose that option it starts sending but stops in 32kb.... as a matter of fact, i need to uninstall the app to get it back normal, cause it staying sending "ad eternum" even after a reboot...
the app "titanium media sync" that supposed to sync with dropbox, can't work to, same problem but it stops at 4kb (basicaly, it creates a couple folders in dropbox and stops)...
i was thinking that it is cm7 releated, but now that japester36 said he get same problem with stock, i don't have a clue
i'm using cm7, last nightly, and with everything off, i tried via wi-fi (home and work) and 3g network too, my carrier is that above my name, it's a brazilian one, really big here, but unknown in the rest of the world! =oP
i have attached a img, it stays that way forever...

Mine is just the same as thiagodark.
I get the problem on WiFi and have noticed it on 3G before. I am however trying it again now.
I'm with T-Mobile in the UK and my phone is unbranded and not rooted. My ISP is BT with Infinity.
Right, I have tried a file over WiFi, less than 32Kb, that doesn't upload either. Dropbox reports 0 of 1 Files Successfully Uploaded". When I turn off WiFi then the same Dropbox upload is now successful!
I've now tried a 293Kb file over 3G and it does upload. Switch back to WiFi and no go.
Guess I need to look into my router (Draytek) or try it at another WiFi access point.
Does Dropbox on Android need specific access through my firewall to the Internet? I'm not overly locked down.

Don't think it needs any specific firewall permissions, it's always just worked for me. However, while I don't have the "freeze at 32kb" issue I do seem to have acquired an occasional issue when uploading (over WiFi) where the progress bar fills completely but then reports "0 of 1 files successfully uploaded". Tried the same file again later (still on WiFi) and it worked fine. My failed upload has been retrying all day (on 3G) and the same thing happens, until I clear failed uploads in the Dropbox app.
I know that's no help to you at all, but it does seem like there are intermittent issues. I'm on CM7 RC4, never had any issues with it before reading this thread last night.
well, just notice that via 3g it is working.... weird!
I keep getting unkown errorin downloading... On my galaxy tab... does anyone know how to get it to work?
I'm thinking it's buggy on a lot of devices right now. On my Atrix, files disappear constantly, then [email protected] 1 gig of videos it kills me. Filed reports with DropBox, but haven't heard back a solution...just they are aware of the problem. I think it's a dropbox issue, not your firewall settings...
Can people please list what app they are using to send (share) to dropbox and what type of file. Also their isp.
So far every app and every file type has uploaded ok.
Also, are you having issues downloading? Again, no problems for me.
If you can provide these details we can look for any pattern.

Well, the response from Dropbox was that the Android app isn't yet a fully usable version as is the desktop. You can't put files directly into folders, like with a file explorer. Having 3rd party applications save files directly to your dropbox folder also will not work. As of now the only way to use dropbox is through the app itself. You need to manually add the files to the dropbox app for it to recognize them. It will not recognize them if you just move them to the folder in any other fashion.
I know for me this sort of makes it pointless. It is quicker to just email whatever files I want on my computer, or just transfer them over wifi or USB. Compared to constantly opening up the app, checking the status of the files, uploading them, never being sure what's synced or not.

Thanks for that information. With the above I managed to figure out how to upload a simple 50K image!
Needless to say the app is totally unusable for me at the moment in time, which is a disappointment. I know loads of people who have upload issues, which begs the question as to why it has such a high rating in the Google Market
Okay first post and sure this is off to a great start, because its probably like the lamest question ever....
I see the SD card partition on the Nexus S and for the LIFE of me can't actually figure out what its for.
If USB storage is for holding media and info then what is the SD for?
At one point i was getting memory errors from apps and it said SD memory at capacity or something like that and the limit seemed VERY small. I ran a cache cleaner and removed some clashing apps (i believe) and it seemed fine after that.
Is the SD the internal RAM?
feel free to call me any derogatory name you like as long as you give me a wiki or explanation. I tried searching the forum and google but it just brings up posts where people already talk about SD with knowledge.
thanks

The SD card is a non removable flash storage device. It's the storage you see when you mount USB storage.
Apps will cache data to the SD card, this is where any downloads go, any picture s or movies you take, etc. It is 16 GB of general storage (separate from the 1GB of internal storage).
Think of it as 'built-in'. For all practical purposes, there is a sdcard, which behaves just as it would on any other android, but you can't remove it. I'm not sure if it is physically part of the internal memory or not. I suspect there is one 16GB chip that is partitioned for internal and /sdcard.

i am a bit stumped then. when it gave me the sd capacity it was NO WHERE near 16g's. it was like 800mbs or something. this is why my slacker kept crashing out and giving me a memory error.
is there a way in the OS to see the SD capacity? I had an app that told me but got rid of it cause i think it was also part of the crashing issues i had.
so is what your saying the SD is what you see when you USB your phone to the computer? its that root DIR. In clockwork i can see a USB and SD dir separately i believe but ill have to check again
thanks
on a side note does anyone else have slacker issues. this is how the entire subject came up to me anyway

Slacker works fine for me, always has (outside of it's poor ability to precache the next song).
For Storage go to Settings -> Storage. USB storage is the SD card.
What space you see when you plug in the NS to your computer's USB is the SD card.
It is not the root folder of the whole phone.
Under the "Settings -> Storage" window on your phone, the "USB Storage" is we are calling the SD card.
The Internal Storage is what the phone needs itself.

Because of all the music on my NS & the fact almost all my apps are there too, I am sucking up approx 3 gigs of SD or USb storage space.
The NS is sucking up approx 800megs of space, of the 1 gig available to it.
As for your Slacker issues, Although I am not familiar with this application, have you tried just reinstalling it.
Heeter
cool thanks guys.
just couldnt figure whyd they name something twice.
As for slacker i beleive it was a mix of
juice defender (which i may try again solo to see if its really that good)
ad blocker (which was jsut something i tried but never really needed, good riddance)
and like these two cleaners which i dont remember the names of.
Now i have NG cache cleaner which is nice and my slcaker seems to be normal again
wasnt sure if the adblocker was seeing the commercials in slacker as ads and trying to block them out causing problems so i got rid of that first.
as the other guy said the pre chaching was HORRIBLE at times making me think the app locked. but after those removals it worked fine with occassional lag betweensongs
When I am importing pictures from my galaxy s8 to PC, windows 10 explorer's "import pictures and videos" are importing pictures of another photo instead. Therefore, it has the same filename, but the actual photo is of another picture. I have tried several times to import and the 2nd, 3rd, 4th try imports a different photo.

I have tried using samsung galaxy s8's original OEM cable, I have tried using a different laptop, desktop, different USB ports but the same problem persists.
When viewing pictures in This PC\Galaxy S8\Phone\WhatsApp\Media\WhatsApp Documents\ or This PC\Galaxy S8\Phone\WhatsApp\Media\WhatsApp Images, the pictures open in windows photo’s and show another picture instead of the correct picture when viewed within android. Therefore, when importing, all the pictures are another picture with the wrong size, dimensions and date and timestamps. How do I fix this ? It is very very infuriating.

Try a different port/cable.
What's the usb settings on the phone?
Try updating or rolling back the driver on the PC.

yes I scanned for it, did a "rescan disk" and "refresh" . I've tried 4 different USB 2.0 ports and 2 USB 3.0 ports no changes. The USB settings for the phone is configured to transfer files. I have re-installed samsung USB driver 3 times

Error messages?
Turn off phone Developer options, try again.
Enable it again and reset usb options, try again.
Try on a different PC.
Meh you are doing something wrong, if explorer can access the phone, it has to show up as a drive in disk management. When Windows ask you what to do, hit do nothing. Reset this option if you set it to open with Explorer.

Windows is connected, right?
The drive has to show up in disk management...
You could try command line. Don't remember any of that, look it up.
