Hey guys,
I am in need of your help, obviously .
I have downloaded an app called FeebeRingtones. It works pretty good so far, apart from an annoying point.
You get the option to download some songs from it, which are apparently saved in the /sdcard/FeebeRings/mp3 folder. This annoys me because it essentially makes those downloaded mp3 ringtones playable from my media player.
What i want to do is edit the apk and make it save in /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones folder. I've opened up the apk, and got to a file named file_save.xml. Thing is when i open that file up its content shows up as gibberish. I tried opening it with an xml editor (Open XML Editor 1.6) but still no luck at all.
Can anyone point me at the right direction, as to what program to use and edit it?
I am attaching the file_save.xml in case anyone wants to have a look and help me out.
Thank you very much for your time.

Hello there!
I installed the baseball superstar 2010 app by clicking a loose .apk that I've put onto my sd-card on my HTC Hero, and now I am wondering, where my saved season results are being stored. Or any save-files for that matter. I cannot find any result of this game on my phone.
Does anyone know where I need to look (and what app do you use to browse your files btw?) Would like to know if anyone has ever succeeded in editing these results too. And how, ofcourse
you can download astro file manager, you can search everything on your phone.
Hi there. Thanks for the tip. I think I have the location. I thought originally that it would unpack and install in some kind of folder, like all games do when you install them on a normal desktop. But.... with astro, when I click on the .apk file which I also used (I think) to install it on my phone, it asks me: browse file or open app manager. So I think the place to be is 'browse file'.
But then..... I always assumed, that my savegame, or my own personalised player would be stamped with the date of today, or yesterday, when I last played the game. But I cannot find anything recent. And there are filetypes my phone doesnt recognise, like: mpl, dat, and ptc.
So now my question is: how can I view these files on my desktop pc (because I cannot seem to browse the .apk file there) and do you have any idea which one I should try to open???
I used to be able to do it on 2.2, 2.1, etc. Just create a directory with a dot in front of it ".temps", and use astro to find the files, but maybe something is different with honeycomb? I'm doing the same thing, but gallery still sees all of my files. Thanks.

maybe just use a specific micro-sd card for your porn.

Lmao.
Clear cache and reboot -
Ya yesterday I googled this and found some said make a file called .nomedia in the folder and others said to put a . in the folder name so I did both and it didn't work, but then I reboot the TF and then it worked so not sure which one actually did it or if both did.
.nomedia does work. The thing is the media scan only run when you rebooted. I think DevTools or SpareParts (don't have my TF with me right now) has an option to force a media scan so youdon't need to reboot.
I have a similar question, but it might be different case though.
Anyway, I have a lot music folder containing mp3 songs and in each folder there is a file called folder.jpg. I created those folder.jpg files manually to assign each music folder a cover picture. They are all shown up properly in the Music player.
(I had this for long time already for my Windows phone, Android phone, Windows PCs).
The problem I have is that, those folder.jpg files are also shown in the Gallery (for Pictures) and I do not know how to exclude/hide those folder.jpg files from the Gallery.
Any clue will be appreciated.
Spawned a good idea. Given .nomedia is supported, the android devs should expand the idea to help you solve your problem. Something like .nophotos in any music folder you don't want photos to be noticed in, and .nomusic, .novideos, .nodocuments, etc..?
When you say reboot, do you mean power off/on? I use Quickpic to browse photos since it doesn't include album art, but I like the default pic viewer and would like it exclude album art as well. I added the *.nomedia to my /music directory and it still shows album art.
Try changing the name of file from folder.jpg to albumart.jpg. It worked on Android 2.x
I post this in my SGS4G Forum, but haven't gotten any hits, trying to broaden my chances of getting some help.
Ok, before i posted this i searched high and low and really couldn't find a strait answer. Here is what i am trying to do... I have a bunch of cool sounds... I would like to set these sounds as key tones... you know, like when i dial a number on my key pad.
So i got all the files in order, converted them to .ogg, and placed them in /system/media/audio/ui and renamed them key1.ogg key2.ogg etc.... Well nothing happens, i cant even play the file, it says its "unrecognized" by the stock media player and Rockplayer. anyone have any ideas?
I read somewhere that the "program" that plays these files will only recognize certain codecs or something, That is a little outside my AO (area of operation)....any help would be greatly appreciated!

I found this
http://www.droidnova.com/creating-sound-effects-in-android-part-1,570.html
However, i am not a Dev so this might as well be Japanese, any hints?
That link is relevant for writting an app that plays sounds.
The app that does this, the dialer already exists though.
This rather sounds like a codec problem.
If you can't open and play those files with the native android player on your phone, the dialer won't be able either.
Recheck the encoding on those sound files and try again.
they will play from the sdcard, but when i move them to the UI folder on the root, they wont... still an encoding issue?
Could be a permission issue.
There is no permission issue on the sdcard, as all files are accessible to everyone, but this doesnt apply to files in the root folder.
So try changing the permissions.
Changed the hell out of the permissions, which made the native player play the file.. YAY!! However......when i changed the file name to Key1.ogg from key1a.ogg, i press the corresponding number on the dialer...i get nada. so sound at all, i will play with permissions a little more, maybe change the format to a lower quality file and see if that helps... Thanks for the insite!
Well the filename has to be the same as the original one, CASE SENSITIVE mostlikely.
To make sure you have absolutely the same kind of file you could extract the original sound file and use a common player (i.e. VLC?) to check the bitrate, encoding, kHz etc.
I DID IT!!! WOO HOO.. what a pain in the ass! LOL I made the files smaller... less than 16hz and 92kbps.. then sent them all to drop box... copied them to the ui folder... THEN...I renamed the originals...then renamed the new ones.. giving them god permission. It worked!! Wish i was more of a Dev.. i'd make an app to simplify it...took about an hour once i got the hang of it....
Hi, (sorry for approx. english speaking i'm realllllly tired at this time)
i was used to load music files into my device using windows explorer and it was good...
then i flushed all files, in order to listen to other songs, so i loaded new music files the same way, but Google Play Music acts as if there was nothing in the gallery...
Finally i've managed to make it work using an android file manager (moborobo).
I'm not ok with that because i would prefer not having to use that program and be able to transfer files directly with windows explorer, it's more simple and doesn't require to install third party app into my device...
If someone can help me with that i'd be grateful.
EDIT/solution:
ok, now i feel a little shameful for this post because the solution was (kind of) described in another forum...
----> a .nomedia file has been created in main storage (really don't know how!?) so...i don't even understand how the android file manager could add music in the gallery. Deleting this .nomedia file solved my issue, everything works as it should now. Really happy to uninstall moborobo!!!
I don't delete the message because it could help someone in the future (hope so).
Ok, so my buddy had an app downloaded from the google play store. back when the S4 Mini was newish. He had some kind of photo/file locker app which all i can tell you is it made a folder on the internal storage simply called "Locker" and all the encrypted files that were locked with that app were in there but of course un-readable because that are apparently actually encrypted to some extent. the phone went overboard in the salt water, couldnt be repaired but i managed to get it running enough to pull the "locker" folder with all the locked data off the storage. He doesnt remember the name of the app used and no longer has the google account to look at his download history to find it. but the icon was blue-ish and it created a folder called "locker" on the storage. he entered his passcode on a dialpad looking menu and boom, his locked files showed up. but thats all i know about it. hes trying to get that data readable again, and changing the extension to jpeg or jpg or png didnt work. just wondering if anyone here may have some sugguestions of apps to try to get these files readable again, if i could find the exact program used my plan was to install it on his new phone. set a password and lock a random picture so this way the program would created all the directories or whatever it needed, and i can copy the recovered files from the old phone and copy them into the new phone in the appropriate directory, and hopefully unlock those files. sorry if im jumping around alot. so im trying to find a way to make these files readable again is the end goal. ive tried for days to get them unlocked. and if anyone can help me they are on these forums. Any help ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I uploaded one of the smaller files which should be the image and one of the larger ones which should be the video. both just say there are no previews available when i try and open either of them.
If the files were encrypted then no matter which app you use, you won't be able to open them. You need to decrypt them first. To decrypt them you need the password they were encrypted with and the encrypting/decrypting algorithm (provided by the locker app). I would try to find the app (and copy the files to its folder), or try to decrypt it using various decrypting algorithms, provided the app uses a standard well-known one.
