I had some midi ringtones on my wildfire... Now I deleted the folder from sdcard (physically there no files, I even overwrite the free space with some random data on computer) but wildfire still shows (and plays) them in sound settings menu When I unmount the sdcard there are only factory ringtones available to set, but when I mount the sdcard again, all my deleted ringtones goes back to the list...
What's the magic-htc way to get rid of them?
I have no root, original htc firmware 2.2.1 and don't want to use factory reset option just to delete some midi files ;]
Tread to delete. I don't known how, but after 6 or 7 restarts the files finally gone... Really something is wrong with wildfire :/

Hello, I had the Unknown reason -18 error from Android Market. I read that one possible fix was to delete the .android_secure folder. I did that but I backed it up to my laptop.
After that I realised that this removed all my apps from my SD so I moved the backup to the sd back in order to restore all apps. But then the problem started. Now I'm supposed to have all the files exactly same as before but, for some reason my phone get stucked when I have to enter the PIN. It does not respond at anything, I thought It was checking the SD files again but it has passed about 30 minutes and still the same. Tried to reboot ( i have to remove battery because the switch off button does not respond) and everytime I'm getting stucked when the SD card seems to be checking files.... What can I do to restore my phone like before? I know one fix is to completely delete .android_secure folder but I would have to reinstall all my sd apps, (thats about 90 apps!!) and probably I'd lost all app's data...
Than you for your help,
Cheers!
(My mobile device is a Nexus One)
Ok, I did a Windows Scandisk over my SD card and it fixed some problems, after that, the mobile did started and all my apps were recovered... What's more after removing the smdl2tmp1.asec file from .android_security folder solved the -18 problem issue.
Everything it's good now =)
So, I rooted my new S3 today and was seemingly successful.
Now, I want to restore all of the applications that were on my Droid 2 (SD card is transferred into my S3).
When I connect the phone to my PC and look at the SD contents, I see all of my old apps and data.
However, when it's disconnected and I open Root Explorer or attempt to restore with Titanium Backup, all of the folders appear blank. I mean ALL of them. Music, DCIM, Tit Back ... seems to think there's nothing in anything.
Can someone clue me in?

In TiBU hit menu, select preferences, and there will be an option to select backup folder location. Then hit detect, and choose "whole device". It will find your backup folder. when it does, select the folder, and then hit use current folder.
... and there we go.
Thank you!

*SORRY PROBLEM SOLVED! FILTER ISSUE* my bad...
Hi everyone! I updated to JB, but the new UI simply is UGLY, so I reverted to stock ROM via flashing.
Unfortunately, I lost all Sansung wallpapers, ringtones, alarm clock sounds and movies, music and so on. Where are these files? In the stock ROM? In the CSC? Eventually, can someone upload a copy of them?
Thanks! Shame on me for not backupping everything via CWM...
Stock wallpapers are in system/app in an app called secwallpaperchooser.apk (or close to that). Ringtones are in system/media/audio in their respective folders. Any movies or music will be on your internal or external sdcard, as with any tones you downloaded. If they are missing in system apps, check if they're still there using a file explorer..

The ones in /system are there, not the ones in the internal sdcard. Maybe they are preloaded but not included in updates?
If they are not on any SD card, you may have wiped it in the process of flashing something...

They were in the internal SD card... apparently, I lost them Back in the WindowsMobile days, they were included in the CSC or default partitions, now they are not anymore.
Will have to find someone with the P3110
DEVICE - NEXUS 5 (un-rooted)
PROBLEM - DELETED storage/emulated/0 accidently
I connected my phone using usb to computer, phone connected as a device and nexus5 icon was created with other directories, I clicked nexus5 icon and then clicked internal storage folder which has all the folders made on phone like music, downloads, android etc. As I was cleaning my phone of redundant folders and files created by apps. I came across folder naaed storage, it has another folder emulated which in turn had file named 0. I thought of it as a file created by some app so deleted (Shift + delete) it. All the images of my phone i.e DCIM, whatsapp, screenshots etc got deleted and phone memory got free. Now my Google Music app can't read my songs present on my phone. I just re-booted (restart) my phone and nothing is resolved.
Now, I connected my phone to compugter via usb, nexus5 icon is shown but when I click it "folder is empty" message is shown.
Please help to get files back and resolve whatever issues (i.e Google Music unable to read songs present on phone) have occured because of deleting that file

Those files are gone man, u might have been able to save them prior to rebooting the device but they are gone now and your going to need to flash the factory image in order to fix your file system, devices have a certain structure of creating file systems, that's why they tell ppl not to delete anything if your not absolutely sure u know what your doing, so like I said, those files are gone, u may be able to get your pictures back if they were backed up using Google photos, but u still need to flash the factory image to fix your file system

I have Lineage17 installed on my rooted Samsung Galaxy J5 with no GAPPS. I experimented with some notification sounds I saved to the empty folder 'Notifications' in phone internal card memory. I changed the default Notification setting 'Argon' to point to the card folder. Now I want to revert back to the default Argon notification sound that was in the original LineageOS build. I don't have GAPPS installed and there are no audio files in the usual android location System\Media\audio.
Where are the default audio (.ogg?) files stored in a Lineage17 build? I've tried wiping the System and Dalvick caches but the default Argon notification doesn't come back. I don't want to do other 'reset' and break what I have. I think i just need to point my file browser to the Argon file if I could find it. Thanks
