hello guys
if any one can tell me how to open local html files with internet explorer or opera mini in offline mode.
IE doesnt' seem to allow the file:// URI scheme, and (at least on stock ROMs) runs with so little permissions it's unable to see almost any files anyhow. Since you have Opera, you're presumably on a full-unlock custom ROM. You could try specifying the apth the file for Opera (or IE; I've never tried on a custom ROM). Either use file:///path/to/the/file.htm or \path\to\the\file.htm.
thank for the reply.but i tried to make that address i.e.169.132......to open an index html file located at root directory but nothing happen.if u give me some detail on this method it would be great.i read some questions at microsoft support but some code written in ms.studio and subsequent compilation could help.my rom is deepshining 7.3 and my phone is hd7
thanks in advance.
Waaaaait, you did what? Nothing in what you wrote looks like what I said you should try. You don't need to run any code, for example. You also shouldn't be entering an IP address, unless you're actually running a webserver on your phone.
If the file is called "index.htm" and is located in the phone's root directory ("\"), then you should have tried either "\index.htm" or "file://index.htm" or "file:///index.htm". These are standard ways to create a local-path URI
You could also try running a webserver, of course. The "Root Webserver" app linked in my signature will run just fine on your ROM. You'll need to make sure that it keeps running in the background (the "NoDehydrate" hack can help here, see my MultiTaskToggle app for an easy way to enable it), then run it, hit the Start button (not Back, as that would exit the webserver), load IE, and then go to 127.0.0.1. You'll need to move or copy the file to the webserver's "Content" folder, then go to 127.0.0.1/Content/index.htm.
thanks for the quick reply .i did not make any code but the question at ms.was about ability of applications to open local help files.
i will try the method u mentioned and reply asap.
i tried all posible paths but always "internal comun.error" in opera .i should give it a try using web server and tell u the result.thanks

I have a treo 750 unlocked. (originally cingular but I'm with Tmobile - not sure if that matters) Tmobile tech guy recommended opera mini when I told him i was having trouble browsing some sites...
If I understand correctly i need a few things in order to download it.
I tried getting it right off my phones browser and I see the file in my folder but when I click it the message says (" there is no application associated with operaminibrowser- Run the application first then open this file from within the application)
I would love to do that but don't see any other option to run the application... maybe i'm not looking in the right place so let me know
assuming I have to do some extra steps I see that I might need the following
Risidoro_Intent_MIDlet_Manager_v11.zip (when I download and extract this the directions say to extract the .cab file but there are lots of files in there and when I open them all I get is a scrambled text file
I just want to have a full browser and be able to get google or yahoo maps for directions.
someone please help
thanks
Have you tried to download it off your PC and put the cab file on your device via activesync?

I recommend this too. Also, I heard it works well if you download IBM's java emulator with it. I like full Opera more then mini and it is free as it is a Beta right now (8.65).
yes I downloaded the files below but no applications would run... perhaps this is where that midlet manager comes in but that won't run anything either.
1. Select preferred language for Opera Mini:
2. Transfer these files to your phone, and install them according to your phone's installation procedure:
opera-mini-advanced.jad
opera-mini-advanced.jar
actually I re-read your question and no I didn't transfer it to my device then try to run it so I'll do that now.
thanks
I'll let you know if it works

That is, just click opera-mini-advanced.jar from inside File Explorer - you won't even need the JAD file.

Hello, I have tried EVERYTHING.
I have tried putting down the parameters you guys gave me and even using the registry change cab, I've tried Xperia Tweak, I've tried J.S. Advanced Config, I even used a registry editor myself to fix my file associations problem.
But it is impossible for me to open the bookmark aka URL file.
Can someone help me?
Is my only way to make URL files open via PIE or Opera Browser is to reformat and hardware reset my phone?
Can someone please give step by step guide to do this. Someone has helped me before but it seemed to do nothing.
When I click on any url file, it brings me to the associated browser but than it brings me to an error page, WHY DOES IT NOT BRING ME TO THE ONLINE WEBSITE?
People please tell me that it is possible to open saved/bookmarked links on a phone's file explorer!
Is it possible?
BUMP, Is it possible?
Can someone just tell me what happens when they open a url file? because it takes me two hours to reformat and setup my phone.
Bump? (please tell me if it is illegal for bumping)
I am still waiting for an answer LOL.
Hi,
I've created an application that help people to share their files over WIFI using HTTP or FTP. It's also a powerful file manager and SMB client, by installing one plugin, it also can mount SMB drive to your phone on rooted phones with custom firmware.
It's also an advanced app manager, it can list all your installed applications, you can backup them, uninstall them, support batch operation.
File Expert is open source software based on GPL v3.
Could you please give it a try and let me know your opinions or suggestions? Any questions are welcome.
File Expert is already on the Google Market to download for free. There's a donation dialog appears when you first run this app. No Ads.
BTW:
If you only need to browse SMB folder and copy files between phone and PC, there's no need to install that SMB plugin.
Seems really nice thanks.
Does support multilanguage and localization?
I can translate it to greek.
sw33t! it mounts SMB drives!
Most excellent

Problem mount smb with FileExpert
Hi
Are there any instructions for how to get the SMB mount to work with winxp? I've downloaded the plugin for smb mount in file expert, but can't get winxp to see the mounted drive for my Galaxy S.
My phone is rooted and the smb works from phone to laptop, i.e. I can see my shared folders from my laptop on the phone. However, it doesn't work the other way around.
I can't get my windows network to find the phone - I've tried:
\\192.168.1.202\mnt\sdcard
for the address, but it says share folder not found. I can ping the phone no problem from my laptop, so the IP address is ok. It must be the path to the folders which isn't right. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Many thanks
Steve
Can anyone post a copy of these GPL v3 licensed sources somewhere please ? (Last version before the license change or any version (as long as legally distributed under gplv3).

If obtained, source should be re-published on google code etc (I am interested as well!). There is really a need for a good opensource file manager. It's a pity that file expert did not continue that way.
Is it possible to download files (RAR) on the device using internet and transfer it later to the PC? I don't think its possible in stock ROM but perhaps an App or something.
My device is Dev+Interop unlocked.
if you find where ie9 stores temporary downloaded file, like pdf, mp4 ecc ecc, i can tell you how to complete the download, and, once completed, tranfer the file to the pc...
It's very possible (download any file that fits to handset's isolated storage file from your homebrew app, and transfer that file to PC using ISETool.exe) but why not use cloud file storage such as SkyDrive, DropBox etc.? If you have no experience with DropBox, click on link in my signature; it's very simple and useful

I think I can find it. Will I be able to save files like RAR too?

I think I would then have to transfer twice.

Yes it is possible to download files. I do it with ultrashot's Opera Mobile port which allows you to select the location of the downloaded files and transfer it using Gooddaytodie's Webserver
Opera Mobile requires full-unlock, so that's not an option for the OP.
Downloaded files typically go to \Application Data\Volatile\<SUBFOLDER> where <SUBFOLDER> depends on where and how they were downloaded (IE, email attachment, etc.).
If you look at the source for my XapHandler app, you'll see how an app can register a filetype. You'd need to do this, or the phone will simply refuse to download extensions that it doesn't recognize (hmm... I wonder if a .* handler would work?)

If Opera Mobile can do, then perhaps some other browser can do that too? Metro internet explorer doesn't work
All the browsers that are based on the IE engine will be unable to do it until the necessary registry keys in HKCR are created. An app can manually download from a URI and save the resulting file, but in the WebBrowserControl if the user clicks a link to a file the handling for what to do with the file is the same as on IE.

yes I can see why it doesn't work. So, does an app like that exists in the MP?

No. And nobody here not even meant marketplace. Interop-unlock + homebrew only.
BTW, could you share with us your scenario: why do you need to download rar archive to the phone and transfer to the PC? I still can't achieve why do you need things like this.

well the thing is, sometimes I need to download files which may take a while to download completely. So, I can download on the go with the cellular data and then transfer to PC when home. Sometimes the file download is completed in the time same as reaching from work to home.
ok, i'll solve the mistere the only thing u need to do is to add a reg key in hkcr , it will be called .rar for rar files etc...then insisde it u create a string that names Default, the value is rarfile
u go back to hkcr, and create a key that is called rarfile, inside it u will create a dword named EditFlags and with the value of 65536
that's all, now you need to know where ie9 stores data...

I don't know if it'll work or not but can you guide the how-to. I can edit the reg-edit using MFG. It has following options:
Root Path
Sub Path
Input key and type
Input data
Just confirming as incorrect reg edit can render unstable.

Oh, I see... Seems like India still have a "last mile" problem and your cell connection is more reliable and faster than home internet. For countries with fast broadband home internet connection this "feature" just have no sense.

ok, this is what you have to do:
-open mfg, engineer menu, other settings, edit registry

-without closing

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......
