[Q]Phone not responding CD1004 - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I'm transferring media files over to my phone it has around 2gbs of space left. However when i transfer anymore media files it gives me an error:
PHONE ISN'T RESPONDING
Your device isn't responding. Please disconnect it,rstart it, then try again.
To see if theres's more information about this error, click Web Help.
Error Code
C00D124D
The only fix for this is to delete some videos in order to sync more which is a b****h seeing how i have 2gb space left. Has anyone also encountered this problem? is there a fix for it?

Bumpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

I haven't seen any other reports of that error.
Did you try clicking Web Help?
Did you try searching for that error code and/or error message?
If that doesn't work, you might need to hard-reset the phone. It sucks, but if something is messed up, that's the easiest way to recover.

The thing is i have games which i want to keep the saved games, and its annoying reinstalling everything.
Is it possible to back it up and hard reset it and afterwards use the backup?

Is that possible? Yes, sure (assuming the phone can be backed up, and your weird error doesn't et in the way).
Will it fix anything? Probably not. If you restore a backup after hard-resetting the phone, it's like you never did the hard reset. That's not going to help if there's a problem to fix!

Is there are way just to backup apps and contacts etc?(I know sms can be backed up)

Contacts should already be stored on your WLID, Google, Hotmail, Exchange, Facebook, etc. accounts ("cloud" services). The phone doesn't actually store them locally, except for a cached copy in case it doesn't have data connectivity at some point.
Your list of purchased apps is already known. You can use the Marketplace website to see your purchased apps and re-install them, free. However, the data for those apps will be gone forever unless you manually back up it. This process is not particularly simple using the software available for Samsung, but it can be done. You need to copy the contents of the IsolatedStore directory for each app that you want to back up to a PC. The IsoStore folder is located at \Applications\Data\<GUID_FOR_THE_APP>\Data\IsolatedStore. There will also be an IsolatedStorageSettings file that should be backed up.
You can use WP7 Root Tools to copy your isostore files to a location that they can be removed from the phone, for example by putting them in the WP7 Root Tools IsoStore folder and then using an Isolated Storage Explorer tool (there are several) or by putting them in the Mango Webserver app's IsoStore and using the Webserver (on the phone) and web browser (on the PC) to download the files. As I said, though, the tools for doing this on Samsung aren't great; WP7 Root Tools isn't designed as a backup app and it is tedious to copy multiple files\folders.

Failed installs

Hi, I've tried searching the forum but can't find an answer to me query.
I've tried to install a cab on my Omnia (for anyone considering buying one, don't) and it failed now the 6MB of free space on my phone is gone without a program showing on the un-install menu to remove to free it up again. Essentially I have converted my phone into an expensive paperweight, and it's not even very good at that as it's quite windy here today. I can't send text messages or launch any programs as there's not even enough memory for that. Any ideas on how I can make my phone usable again, if I had space to back up my phone numbers I'd hard reset but I'm not mad keen on loosing my newer contacts.
Thanks in advance, or at least thanks for looking.
It seems to be that those files are somewhere in windows folder, by usinf file explorer try to delete the files that you are not using from my document, application and data, temp and also delete the browsing history and cookies from IE or opera mobile also you cane use a program called clear temp to remove unused files you can download it from here http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-cleartemp-v1-0.html
Enjoy....

copying side apps from windows phone

Hi,
I had deployed an application on my phone, unfortunately my hdd crashed and all source was lost. There is hope to recover the source if I can copy the deployed app from my hd7. Any bright ideas?
- make your phone visible in Windows Explorer as Zune device;
- using TouchExplorer, copy your dll to documents/pictures (you need to experiment), then copy from Zune drive to PC;
- use Reflector to restore your source code;
Browse forums for #1-2, google for #3
Is touchxplorer safe to use? Does it change modes on the phone to get file system access?
I did rather not use apps like dfrouter...
Yes, it's safe. You can revert everything back.
great app! to my surprise I was able to find all the install dlls for my app. To recover I just renamed them to txt which made the phone think its an office doc thus enabling the email option.
no need to mess with registry settings to turn phone into usb disk.
I"m using wpdm to transfer side apps ringtone to my hd7.

[Q] [HOW TO] Content transfer - Cross Platform

How do you get to transfer in the easiest way - songs from an android device to a fully unlocked Nokia Lumia 710?
also..
Where do the attachments in my hotmail get saved on my local phone storage? I have fully unlocked L710 and HTC Titan. Someone sent me a few clips attached to hotmail. I can play it from my email attachment but would like to find the folder where it is locally stored after download, and then be able to play the content from Zune. Is there any homebrew app for such file management? I have File Explorer, but don't know where these attachments can be found, then moved so that they are playable in Zune Hub.
this is a great question that I would also like to know the answer to. There has to be some way to mount the storage and manage it from a pc like you can with Android.

I did not really bother trying to find the answer. But someone who uses Android in my family tried to send me a few clips of music that I really really wanted to hear. Now ofcourse I have got it via bluetooth and that I can access. However, he sent a few more by email as my bluetooth transfer was slow. I had presumed I can find these songs in the same place. BUT nope!
However, here is my progress.
File explorer -> Applications data -> Volatile -> Email attachments -> go to each folder. Each folder represents one attachment.
So I was happy after posting this that I found where the attachments are.
However, when I copy and paste the same under my Zune contents, I cannot see it in my Zune Hub and cannot ofcourse play it from Zune hub!
Zune on the phone uses a database of media files. Merely moving your files under \My Documents\Zune\Content\* isn't going to help. The only way that I know of to add arbitrary files is to copy them to the PC, then sync them using the PC Zune software. Nobody has yet figured out how to do it more directly, although I'm sure it's possible.
Mounting the phone as USB Mass Storage is just not even vaguely likely to happen. The amount of driver writing and re-configuration that would be needed... I don't think you realize what you're asking for. There are deinitely options, though; for example, my Root Webserver app lets you browse the phone's filesystem (including uplodaing and downloading files) from your PC. You just have to use a web browser instead of a traditional file manager.

That does add some light to the scenario! Thanks!
So does that mean that even though we do have homebrew file explorers, we cannot really control our attachments i.e. sandbox issue? I have realised in last two days that our file explorer functionally isn't same as those traditional WM6.5 or Android ones. Hence theoratically speaking yes we do have file explorer but not to its full functionality..which leads me to another question. So ideally what do you use your file explorer for?
Aside from aiding my research and testing my hacks, here are a few things I use file browsers for:
Copying ebook files (.MOBI and .PRC) to the Kindle directory.
Manually editing the Marketplace configuration files (for example, some downloads are even bigger than the 200 MB that Marketplace Config will allow you to specify).
Freeing up space on the phone's storage (deleting temprorary files of my choosing, rather than simply purging the whole phone).
Backing up application data to my PC.
Turning music files into ringtones/alarms/etc.
A number of these can currently be automated using apps, and there are others that could be more useful to other people, but that's what I've found to be useful.

Any idea where the music is stored on the phone?

So I just noticed that my Omnia 7 isn't showing any music in the music hub or when I connect the phone to Zune but its still taking memory on the phone. Same thing with photos as well. The Camera Roll and Saved Pictures folder was empty as well.
My device is unlocked and I have WP Root Tools installed, but I can't figure out in which folder is the music stored on the device. I just want to delete the music from the phone so that I can sync it in back again. (Syncing in new stuff seems to work. It shows up in the music hub).
Any idea how I can remove the music using WP Root Tools (or any other tool) from my device. I can't do a factory reset because I can't loose all the apps and messages etc. I tried looking around the forum but can't find anything relevant.
Any help would be awesome!
hi..
maybe this link can help you.. http://www.biggtech.com/microsoft-2/transfer-media-and-files-on-wp7-smartphone-just-like-usb-drive_3714.html

Transfer WhatsApp Chats to New Galaxy Note Phone from PC

I had my 2nd Galaxy Note 4 show the eMMC fault and go into endless bootlooping. I thought that I had been backing up whatsapp to google, but I found out otherwise. Here is the situation:
*Note 4 (unrooted) would start up for about 20 seconds before restarting. Not enough time to backup whatsapp to google drive. I was backing up whatsapp locally though. Marshmallow 6.0.1
*I was able to install TWRP. The phone has no problem starting and staying in TWRP recovery mode. Endless bootlooping only occurs when I try to start Android
*I could see all non-root-access folders in TWRP as well as in file explorer in Windows 10 when the phone was in recovery mode and connected to PC
*I copied all whatsapp folders from the phone to PC with Windows 10 file explorer (again, only when the phone is in TWRP recovery mode)
* I realized that these files may not be enough to open the whatsapp db in a new phone due to encryption
*I then used TWRP to install Magisk
*Then I was able to use ADB to pull the whatsapp key file and wa.db file from the phone to PC
*I am able to unencrypt the database and view in WhatsApp viewer
*After 6+ years of the Note 4 (2 separate devices), I purchased the Note20 Ultra yesterday (what an upgrade!!)
Question is, what do I need to do to get the chats from my PC onto my Note 20? Phone-to-phone transfer won't work because the Note 4 won't stay on long enough. BTW, I'm almost a complete noob--I just figured these things out yesterday with the help of some amazing resources from folks like you. So a big thanks to you. I did some whatsapp db merging a few years ago when my first Note 4 died, but I don't think any of that knowledge is still relevant.
...surely it can't be as easy as transferring my media files then dropping only the msgstore.db file into the Note 20, can it?
Ok, it really was that easy.
*I copied all my non-root-access Whatsapp folders over to my unrooted Note 20. These folders included all media and the msgstore.db.crypt12 files but, of course, did not include the key nor the wa.db files as these latter files are only found in the root-access folders.
*I then signed in to a google account so that I could download Whatsapp from the Play Store
*After initial installation and before a full whatsapp setup, I signed out of all google accounts on the Note 20 in order to force a restore from the local backup that I had copied to the phone (actually, I messed up twice and Whatsapp found an old google drive backup; I had to uninstall and reinstall whatsapp twice; finally worked on the 3rd try)
*Most of my chat contents, media, and correct contact names are now on my new phone
I must not have understood the high-level details of the encryption. I thought that the key was device-specific and that moving an encrypted msgstore.db file to a new device meant that I must also move the original key with the db file so that the new device could decrypt the first time. This doesn't seem to be the case. It must be that the key is associated with the whatsapp-registered phone number because I did use the same sim card/phone number in the old and new phones. Does anybody know if that is correct?
Two slight issues that I will try to fix today include 1) some missing contact details and 2) a few missing recent whatsapp chats.
1) Most of my contacts were synced with google, so I pulled most of them to my Note 20 quite easily. I must have also had some local contacts on my old phone that I never synced with google. Can anybody post a link to a good tutorial on how to convert a contacts2.db to vCard or a similar format? It's tantalizing that my old Note 4 will start for about 20 seconds and I have tried to get into my contacts on the phone and export them to the removable SD card. It's so close. The export starts but doesn't quite finish. The result is an unfinished (408kb) vcf file on my sd card that won't open on my new phone.
2) I think that the old phone started up just long enough to download the latest whatsapp chats from the server, but not long enough for me to view them. I'm missing chats from the 3-4 days between when the old phone was wonky and I installed whatsapp on the new phone. I think that they are not downloading from the whatsapp server onto my new phone because they already downloaded to my old phone
Any thoughts on any of this?
If you can't decrypt, key file has changed.
Decrypting is not a problem. I can do it on my pc as long as I have the key file (which I do). The new phone is also able to decrypt--without the key. That is what surprised me
If you make a full backup and then make a full restore, your whatsapp will work perfectly.
You mixed things up a lot.
Msgstore.db and wa.db are never in same folder of msgstore.db.crypt12.
Msgstore.db and all other databases (*.db files) are not encrypted.
You don't need key file to read them.
Only *.crypt12 files are encrypted.
For them, you will never can decrypt them without key file.
About google backups, they are NOT encrypted.
All files backuped to google, are unencrypted.
Taken care.
Your worries are unnecessary.
Keep your backups safe and secure and you will have no one problem.
Ok.
So I did make a complete backup of the rooted Note 4 to my external SD card using twrp. I now have 2 phones: the old Note 4 which won't start and the new Note 20 which I don't want to root at the moment.
How could I make a full restore, so that my whatsapp will work perfectly?
Ok, I think I got this now. I've read up on the various threads related to this and I think I know what to do now
