are you talking Bluetooth?
my understanding is file transfer via BT is not possible in stock. For the G1 developers like cyanogen have come up with apps for that which work, and i expect in his first custom ROM for Nexus One it will be included.
i can transfer certain file types from my laptop to my not-yet-rooted-N1, e.g., *.png, *.mp3. for other file types that generate an error message, my workaround is to add the file extension ".png" to the file so it gets transferred to my and then from the N1 remove the .png extension. all files are stored on the sdcard in a folder called Bluetoooth.
Thanks Cortez.
It works.

The file I'm trying to copy is ezinput.dll. Specifically, the version from my new Sprint Diamond Touch Pro.
I never had any problems copying files from ROM, but this one resists.
I tried using 1) Explorer via Activesync, 2) Resco Explorer (error: Cannot copy, Invalid parameter), 3) Total Commander (Cannot copy), 4) zipping the file (result is a 0 byte file), and stopping all the related services but results are the same.
Thinking that the dll is locked because it is loaded, I renamed all references of this file in the registry, reset, no joy.
Using Memmaid, I see that Services spawns many threads, and some of the et9 related dlls are started by it. Is this why I can't copy the file? If so, how do I keep Services from starting the .dlls?
The big questions are 1) Why can't I copy? and 2) How do I copy a file that resists copying?
Thanks.
question here is why do you want to copy the file, well i would like to know why lol
Have you got a rom update for the diamond rom you could extract the file from that, maybe it is protected ,which is why it cant be copied. Have you tried clicking copy in resco then just paste a copy back into the windows directory it will just rename it copy of ezinput.dll ,then maybe you will be able to copy that copy of the file?
Yes, I can extract the ROM (no update as far as I know) if I needed to, but I'm trying to avoid that.
I want to copy that file because the Touch Pro has slightly variations in its soft keybard that I would like to use.
I asked one of my developers, and he explains that the file is opened as "exclusive". I need to find a way to keep that file from running on startup. It's not running as a service, it's not in the startup, it's a registered .dll that is being called by another process.
Does WM6.x have a .dll cache?
There must be a way to copy this file... Help?
use total commander; works for me

As I indicated in the original post, TC did not work. If you have a Diamond/Touch Pro/WM6.x w/ HTC's soft-keyboard, I would like you to try to use TC to copy windows/ezinput.dll to another location. My guess is that it will NOT work.

ohh...i didnt read carefully enough, sorry.
Might be a way to see content of the flashdisk on the PC while in the erm...tricolor screen (i cant believe i dont remember the term at the moment x.x) - but then again, probably not.
i switched roms acouple times today and this has happened one other time.
All my video files not the folders or subtitles or anything just the video files themselves have been deleted.
Using brilliant corners and bottle o smoke and bam they are gone...
all you have to do is make a no media file. basically make a new text doc on your computer and just save it as ".nomedia" You do not have to write anything in the file. This will tell the tablet not to delete any files out of this folder. put this file in every folder that has media items. I hope this helps.
Hmmm...I've never had that happen to me, but thanks for the tip fosser2
It's a known issue and easily fixed with the .nomedia file. Beware though that windows won't let you create such a file. I think most android file managers will allow you to create a file and rename it ".nomedia".

You can easily make this file form windows. Right-click on any explorer window and choose New>Text file. Then just rename it to .nomedia instead of NewTextDocument.txt or whatever the default is.
Scratch that. Windows says "type a file name" or something. Just use notepad++ as someone else mentioned...
Hello, I have downloaded a zip file through IE. Where I can find it ?
Thank you
There isnt a specific place... each app has its own isolated storage where it keeps their files.
You should be able to open that ZIP file from the browser and it will show you the files within... if they are recognised file types by WP7, it will let you run them.
But that's it, you have no file manager you can goto and fetch that saved file.
PS: well, you have... but I'm unsure if TouchXplorer is still working or not.
Thanks for this, but how can i delete it if I can't find it? I use the TouchXplorer...
I am concerning about the phone memory.
Generally, files downloaded through IE are stored in temporary memory and will be erased after a certain amount of time.
I ran into the same problem today. luckily i hit the windows button so all I have to do is hit the back button to reach the zip file again. Kind of frustrating when you dont have a file explorer and no other way to reach the file you just downloaded
Hi All,
I've used Heathcliff's WP7RootTools 0.9 to extract a file from an installed apps IsolatedStorage. The app in question was installed from the Marketplace, but I want to modify some of the files it's saved to it's Isolated Storage.
I extracted the file I wanted to edit by using the Explorer utility in WP7RootTools to copy the file to the "My Documents" folder, and renamed the extension to docx. From there I could simply go into the Office Hub, where the file was now listed, and emailed the file to myself.
I have made the edits to the file, but now need to get the file back into the app's Isolated Storage. This is where I have now got a bit stuck
I've tried copying the file to SkyDrive, and using the Office Hub to download it from SkyDrive to my phone. The file downloaded and is cached on the phone somewhere, but the file location, according to Office is not "Phone". This is normal, as Skydrive downloaded documents are not saved to the "Phone" location until you open the document and do "Save as".
I cannot of course open the downloaded file, as it isn't really a .docx file. Files loacted in the "Phone" location show up in "My Documents" in the WP7RootTools explorer. SkyDrive downloaded documents I have no idea where they are located?
Can you guys help? Does anyone know the path to location of SkyDrive downloaded items on the phone. If so, then I can easily just use the WP7Roottools Explorer to copy the file back to the apps Isolated Storage.
Is there a better way to copy a non-Office file back onto the phone?
Regards,
Micro666
You could use one of these apps:

i was going to suggest using WPV App Data Backup, but it seems i saved the Backups in the wrong location... (will fix in next release)
so,
you can use TouchXperience or WMDC Launcher.

I'm looking to do the exact same thing....
Options:
1. Do exactly what you've been doing, but save as .txt instead of .docx. The phone can still open this, even though its probably a binary file, and save it to the "Phone" location. Then you can copy it back and rename it.
2. Use an app that gives direct access to the phone's filesystem from the PC, like TouchXperience+WPDM, or Root Webserver (see my sig)+your favorite webbrowser.
3. Use any other way to get a file onto the phone, such as emailing it to yourself, using IsolatedStorageexplorer, or putting it in a XAP files and installing that file. Then move the file with WP7 Root Tools.
I recommend approach #2.

I used TouchExperience.
1.On my Fully unlocked Device(I assume you can do this with root tools), I installed a file manager that gives full access to the device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24636416&postcount=23
2. I installed TouchEperience on my PC. After giving the WP7 app, Root tools rights, it should show most of the file system(on the PC) but, not all of it. So I created a new folder in \Windows (temp).
3. On the Phone, I hunted down the file I was looking for from Isolated Storage, I copied it to the \windows\temp folder.
4. Used the PC TouchExperience and browsed to \Windows\temp, there was my files, I copied them to my PC. USed the File Explorer to delete the files in my \temp folder(to make sure they were gone).
5. I edited the files, copied them back to \Windows\Temp on my device via TouchExperience on the PC. Then used the file explorer to copy them back to the Isolated Storage.
Note: The file explorer I posted a link to is GREAT, it can even edit files (basic text editor) in Isolated storage. I found a way to Cheat on a marketplace Xbox live game (didn't try others), right before the achivements, so they were really easy to get
I'm sure there is easier methods but, this worked for me...
Can I ask, what app did you try this on ?
Hope this helped...
FYI DavidinCT: Cheating XBL games is very risky. Microsoft often can detect it (for example, if you get one achievement that would have required getting another first) and they can and will permanently ban your Xbox Live account for doing so.
That all said... why didn't you just use WPDM (on the PC) to copy the file straight to the IsoStore of the app? So much easier...

To be honest, I only did it with a game that had an error when I got so far, so the final achivements of the game. A Game with a Known issue but, no fix.
And I just really wanted to see if I COULD do it...
I used WPDM but, the PC version even with my phone fully unlocked (custom rom on my VZW HTC Trophy) and using Root tools 0.9 to give full to TouchExperince root, would not see all the folders and would not see the IsoStore. SO I had to copy the files to a folder that WMDM could see.
Personally, the new File Explorer above is awsome, it's even got a editor in it, I didn't even need to go through all that......
I have a rooted Xperia U with the TerraRom. I wanted to check out another rom called Infinity Rom v3. I downloaded it from the website, and dragged the file from my downloadfolder too the root of my Xperia U, where theres a hundred folders including my old Rom. I got an errror message up the second I let go of the folder. I have the norwegian language turned on, so I probably won't write the error code just like Windows is supposed too, but it was something like this: "Can't copy the file. The device stopped answering or is disconnected.". First I though that it was something wrong with the connection, but I found that transfering other zip files to the device is not a problem. I also tried to redownload the file, but the error appeared anyway. The file could be opened with WinRar, but not with 7zip. The file contained 2 folder, one called META-INF and one called system. There were also 2 files with the same names.
Winrar gave me an error message too, saying that the zip was/had unintentionally stopped (working) or something.
This is very annoying, and I would love if someone could take the time too tell me the problem, as that would help me a lot. Thanks

I can't find a way to change the usb connection between mtp and ptp in the storage section of the settings application. I tried turning my phone off and on, but no difference.

I have restarted my pc, and my storage still got plenty of space left. It's only this one file that won't transfer. I have tried many other files and they work, but this one doesn't. :/
