Extra HTC Sense 2.1 Skins
Edit: I'd also like to stress that these skins are not my work. I merely found them by accident on the Desire HD forums, and sopL87 (the original author) has kindly let me post the link here.

Hi
Do you mean the file transfer failed or the installation? How are you trying to move them over? Could be a couple of things:
1. I have found that the stock web browser has a bug in it where sometimes downloading a .zip file downloads as a useless .bin file and hence wont install. Try downloading from a PC and then manually moving the .apk file to your sd card for installation.
2. You have not allowed the installation of applications outside of the Market. Go to Menu> Settings> Applications and make sure 'Unknown sources' is ticked.
3. Make sure you extract the .apk from the zip file before putting it on your sd card, or use a file explorer app that can install apps from within a zip. I think Androzip can do this.

Hi again,
I downloaded the zip file on pc and tried 2 copy the zip file on 2 SD card but kept failing so do I have 2 extract the file 1st then put it on SD card

When you say failing, exactly what is happening. Can you please describe your procedure step-by-step and quote any error messages. I'm not sure what is going wrong here.

Ok, ive got the zip file on my computer SD card in and I find the zip on my downloads folder and right click and copy then go in2 SD card and right click paste it says.copying then after a few minutes it says it can't find it and won't copy it in2 my SD card

^ Unzip the contents first on your PC. Connect your phone to your PC, select "Disk Drive". A window should pop up , showing the contents of your SD card. Using your PC, make a new folder on your SD card, then copy the apk's from your PC to your SD card. To install the apk's you'll need apps like Astro which will allow you to browse the contents of your SD card and give you the option to install them. Use Astro to locate the new folder you made and open it to view contents. Select the appropriate skin apk and install it. Once installed you will be able to find the new skins at "Skins" under Customization. This is assuming you haven't recieved the new HTC over the air system update, because if you did you won't be able to install the new skins anymore ( which is what happened to me, and unfortunately I don't know how to roll back the update ).

Ok thanks I will try it soon

Hi,
I use ES File Explorer.
When I long press a file/zip/download And press "Move To ",the first place it offers me is the root of my sd card.So I press OK.
When you go to recovery,install zip,choose zip,then it will take you to the root of your sd card.
If you cannot see your file/zip,then it is elsewhere.
Did you look in the "downloads" folder when you tried to install from sd card? It should be in there since you downloaded it directly on your phone. Putting your files on the root of your sd card is much easier, eliminates having to go into folders searching for the file.
I'm just learning too but I noticed my downloads went into a download folder when I download directly to my device.I have a hunch this is where yours went also. Mine automatically went into the folder. At first I could not find mine either but after looking there they were in the folder. Hope this helps you out!

Hi,
I use Maxthon browser,and it creates it's own folder(MxBrowser) on the root of my sd card .
Inside this,there is a folder called "Downloads"
Everything I download when I am using that browser goes there.
Then just use ES File Explorer as I suggested earlier.
Hey thanks a lot.I appreciate it.

Transfering downloads

How do I transfer downloads from maxthon browser to the root of my sd card.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
hhhhh......
when a download starts, it asks where you want to save it right??
do you look at that? and see where it's downloading at?
if it doesn't ask where to download (as i never used maxthon before), it's most probably in a folder called """DOWNLOADS""" that's magically created in your SD card.
Thanks for the reply and zI know that they usually go in the download folder but this time they did but I found then thanks..

insufficient storage

Strange I can't download this one specific app "diptic" I'm getting the "insufficient storage" pop up. But I can download other apps n deleted them too.
Also, tried to push copy my apps to sd using TiBu .. no results. Tried LinksSD, no results.
Any suggestions. Posted print screens, too.

Use root explorer or es explorer and go into /data/app and delete the .odex file for the app you are trying to install.

So do the Stock Custom ICS (Beans, Synergy) have native a2sd functions?
Dunno if this will help but it did the trick on my last phone. Open root explorer and check the cache folder. I had an ota sitting there and the phone wouldn't download anything from the play store because of it. If something big is lurking there delete it.

No media found at all at both HTC Music, HTC Gallery, Google Music and Google Gallery

Hello wonderful developers,
Here I am again with a neat problem that I haven't had before.
I like to flash. I'm one of the guys that actually likes flashing new roms enough to restore all apps one-by-one using TB. But today, something went Quietly Wrong. Well, flashing went just like usual, but now my phone can't find any media (Music, images, videos...) at all.
When I noticed the problem, I immedietly switched to a different rom, but the problem still persisted.
The weird thing is; I can still browse and launch my media using a file browser.
And what's a problem-thread without some specs:
System information:
Name: HTC Sensation Z710e (Pyramid, S-OFF)
Root: Superuser
Recovery: ClockworkMod Touch Recovery
Processor: Normal clock speed, see kernel
Kernel: Stock HTC Pyramid kernel with normal clock-speed
ROM: Android Revolution HD 6.7.3
Android-version: 4.0.3
I just noticed it started finding one song: The Pretender by the Foo Fighters. Altough I love that song, I would like to have some variation.
Ah, I made some calculations:
Every two days, one song gets added. My entire music collection contains 764 files.
764*2=1528 days. That makes 4.1 years.
I probably have a new phone by that day...
I'm sorry for bothering you, but can somebody please look into this?
Do you have a sd card reader? If so perhaps you can first check to see if your files are all there and available. Just a idea. If you don't have one you can get one for under 5 dollars. That's a handy thing to have. You just pop out the sd card put in reader and put reader in computer. You can then move files , add them or delete if necessary. I often use my reader, comes in really handy in deleting pg58img files too . This is what I would try. This way you can see exactly what is on the card. It's just a thought... Hope this helps in some way. Best wishes and I hope you get this issue resolved soon . Good luck to you.

The problem is there on all roms I've tried. Removing the cache didn't do the trick.
Have this issued too, can someone help.
I also have the same issue when flashing JB roms. Try transferring all your important files to your PC. Flash the SD card. Perform a wipe. Then transfer the files again to your SD card. It works all the time for me!
Ho had the same problem but you can try to unmount and mount again your micro sd, or you can try changing folder where did you put the files

Delete .nomedia files present in the sdcard.. You can do a simple search for this in es file explorer... First enable hidden files in es file explorer--settings then go back to root of sdcard and search for the file... You might some multiples of this file... Delete all of them and reboot and see

Hey, I had the same problem a week ago. What I did was download an app from the appstore called SDRescan. It's the perfect app for this kind of problem to be honest.

Try to reboot your device
Try to reboot your device and see what happens. I encounter the same problem and decided to reboot. Doing that solves my problem. :angel:
No matter what i do nothing fixes this ****ty problem. So i just formatted everything including sdcard and reinstalled rom.
I have a similar problem, the photos that I upload to outlook, facebook.... now appears duplicated in gallery, when physically not.
I've tried clean /cache, dalvik cache, re-mount sdcard, reboot phone.. but these methods has no effect
I'll try to make a backup of dcim photos in another folder, reboot, then put again the photos.
PD: also I tried to delete the famous .nomedia file, but I don't founded it!
