When I download from Chrome files go u Der download folder, but when I download from Google or better from a page opened in web view, files go in android/data/com.googlequicksearch/files/download
How do I change that?
You have something broken. I use Bromite and I see a path similar to yours, but ultimately the file is placed in /storage/emulated/0/Download
And how do I fix it?

Maybe it is another post again about the autocomplete function, but I can't find an answer. I like this auto complete function, but the problem is that once you do a hard reset or install a new rom that all user owned words (words that were added by the system when typing) are lost. These words should be somewhere in a file, but I don't find this file.
Does anyone know what the name of this file is and where to find it?
Using File Explorer go into your Windows directory on your phone and then go to menu and click 'view all files' and you'll see a file called 'autocorrect'. That's the file you need to alter. Copy it onto your PC desktop and save a copy somewhere safe just in case you do something stupid. Now open up a copy of it on your PC and you'll see two columns - the left column is the 'typo' and the right column is what it corrects it to. You can add or change things here. I made "pcm' autocorrect to 'please call me' for example and 'tx' to 'thanks'. When you save the file do not change the format (Windows tries to save it as an Excel file- don't do that - leave it as it is which i think is txt). Now you need to replace the file on your phone however it is a locked file. Use your registry editor (I use Total Commander) and find the autocorrect file and change the settings so you can alter it. Delete the file existing on your phone and replace it with the file you just altered. Once this is done you need to soft reset and everything will work.
If you get a new phone or need to hard reset just make sure you take this file along with you and you'll keep all of your settings.
Thanks for the response, but it is not the file I am looking for. This is the file which is used when you choose the autocorrect function. This is not the file that is suggesting words while you are typing. Anyway, thank you.

thanks, but no again. This link is only referring to win2003 and se. There is no such a dat file in here.
I currently access a website that has the ability to download selected files from the click of a hyperlink. (on the PC). By clicking on the link the files come down and a dialog box opens with the downloaded file asking, to open it or save it.
When I try to do the same on my phone the website appears to be accepting depressing the link, however nothing appears on my phone asking to open or save it and I cannot find the file anywhere. It may be downloading the file in the file structure but I cannot find it. My friend who has an iPhone does the same thing and the file opens up immediately on his phone just like you would on a PC.
I've tried using the stock browser and the dolphin browser. The phone is a stock charge the gingerbread update.
I can open these files if they are sent to me in an e-mail but not by depressing this hyperlink on the website.
Anyone have any ideas?
Try long pressing on the link and hitting save as or save target or whatever it says

I have tried long pressing the link and that opens up a dialog box with the following.

Nothing about saving or opening files.
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......
Sometimes You want to install an App on more than an android device, but the App data is Big, so it would take long to download
My Problem For Example, I Want to Install Several Offline Language packs For Google Translate for each Device, on my Connection it would take Forever
Now The Thing That You Need these File's to Be Downloaded Once, Copied To your PC, Plus Knowing From Where the files Being Downloaded
For My Case the File's are "ar.zip" and "c.zip" And they are being Downloaded From:
http://dl.google.com/translate/offline/v3/r1/ar.zip
http://dl.google.com/translate/offline/v3/r1/c.zip
Now the idea is:
1.Get a Copy of the Files to your PC
2.Make a Local WebServer
3.Edit Hosts file in Your Android (Require Root)
and Simply Download the Files Using your App as Normal But it will download rather than internet it will download from your PC
Now you'll Need Reactor, Get it From: https://app.box.com/s/brvhhzr72220n1w1mao6
Simply After you Download it, Run it and Install it, Run It, Run the WebServer
Now when you open localhost or 127.0.0.1 in your Browser it will open you an automatically Generated page by Reactor
Now you need to store Files in the WebServer, or whatever you call it, To Do this, Go to the Folder where you installed Reactor, Open "Core" Folder and then "htdocs" Folder, Now For Example if you Put a Folder called "hello", and Put a File Called "a.mp3", if you Opened with your Browser, localhost/hello/a.mp3 you will be able to download it!
Now For My Case i made the "ar.zip" and "c.zip" in translate/offline/v3/r1/
So the Path of the Files are:
\Reactor\Core\htdocs\translate\offline\v3\r1\ar.zip
\Reactor\Core\htdocs\translate\offline\v3\r1\c.zip
while in the Browser They Would be:
localhost/translate/offline/v3/r1/ar.zip
localhost/translate/offline/v3/r1/c.zip
Now The Next Step is to redirect the Website The App Will download From to Your PC Server, Which is you PC IP Address
My PC IP Address is 192.168.1.106,. So For my Case i want dl.google.com to be redirected to 192.168.1.106
"hosts" File will do the Job!, You'll need root for this Step, Open up a File Manager in your android, navigate to /etc/ and Open up "hosts" file with a Text Editor
and add the Following Line:
HTML:
<For (IP)> <From>
For My case i will add:
HTML:
192.168.1.106 dl.google.com
Now if i Opened dl.google.com in your android Browser it will open the WebSever you made with your PC!
Now For My Case When Google Translate Try to Access:
HTML:
http://dl.google.com/translate/offline/v3/r1/ar.zip
HTML:
http://dl.google.com/translate/offline/v3/r1/c.zip
dl.google.com --> is the WebServer Now
/translate/offline/v3/r1/ --> Entering the Folders I Made the ZIP Files In
<file>.zip is the Files
So the it will now download Rather from the Internet it will be Directed to My PC hooray!:victory:
Now you Bring Every Droid You have, Add a Single Line, and Download the File you want Normally! Amazing!:victory:

And Hit that Thanks Button if i Helped, i really Appreciate this!
So, I edited a word doc from an email, using the built-in Hancom HWord viewer/editor. I used Save As from the menu. I wasn't paying attention to the file path and just added a suffix to the file name. Turns out I was saving in a protected folder. HWord cannot be opened directly from the Applications on the phone, but only by opening a Word doc from email, etc., but that doesn't present an Open option.
So, since I can't open the app and get an Open option, and because the file is in a protected folder, I can't get to this file.
The only method I've found out there for rooting my phone involves deleting the phone. Not an option when all I need to do is get to the file and copy it somewhere else.
I tried installing the latest HWord, and of course it does not have access to the original HWord's folder.
Do any of you know a method I can get to the file? Again, just need to copy it to a readily accessible folder.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
