WM 2005 - Where is my storage folder

Hi
I'm searching archive and can found it.
I've upgraded to wm2005 and my folder 'storage' has gone off. I've see in settings/memory that i have 61mb of storage but where the folder is, i can't see it in explorer.
And second, where is function 'permament save', how can i put back my contacts into a device (i've backuped it on my pc before upgrade)
please help
regards

You dont have a storage folder with WM5
You have a my documnets and that should be were you can store files, check the properties of that and you should find your 60mb. (most other folders are the same)

TomTom installation directory

Hi all,
sorry if this has been posted before but I couldn't not find an answer anywhere.
Is it possible to force the TomTom Taster which comes on my Vodafone v1615 app CD to install to my microSD HC card?
At the moment it only installs to the device itself and the option "Install program into the default installation folder" in Activesync is greyed out (as it is with all apps found in the Add/Remove Programs screen when connected to the v1615).
I've installed TomTom Home but cannot see a way to move the installation folder or my one free map download to the microSD card.
Thanks for any help forthcoming

Its actually nothing worse than copying the TomTom installation folder to your storage card. At least thats what I did. Havent reinstalled TomTom in like 10 ROM-flashs/hard resets, I just make a new shortcut with each flash/reset.

i use tomtom and installed successfully to the tilt main phone storage w/no problems. the application isn't that big, only the map data which is on the sdhc card
check with tomtom support!

M4cr0s, thats exactly what I'm trying to achieve and have done with my previous iPAQ. So it is just a case of copying the installation folder over? This wont corrupt any installation files or reg pointers?

There are probably some reg pointers, but it since it works fine here they are either not necessary or the application will automatically create them if their not there. (actually surprisingly many applications works fine installed to storage card and just made shortcut to upon a new flash/hardreset)
To test, just copy the TomTom folder (program files/navigator I think the default path is for the kaisers bundled version) to your storage card, rename the original TomTom folder to something else and try run it from the storage card. If it works, you're pretty much set I'd say.

Cannot copy file or folder: The parameter is incorrect

Hi,
I have a HTC Touch Diamond.
Yesterday I've connected my HTC Touch Diamond with the PC and choose the harddrive modus. When I would to copy a file from desktop pc to HTC TD Storage Drive, I receive the following error:
Cannot copy file or folder: The parameter is incorrect. (in german = Fehler beim Kopieren der Datei oder einen Ordner: Falsche Parameter)
But when I connect with ActiveSync modus the copy process works fine.
For your information: In January I've installed the new ROM version 2.03.407.2 GER.
Best regards

Now, I've remembered me, that I have connected my device one week earlier with an MacBook. After the connection the MacBooks hangs up. Then I've disconnected the device. And this corrupted my harddrive.
Now, I've copied all files to my desktop pc, have formatted the internal storage and copied all files back to the device in harddrive modus. It works fine.
Best regards,
Double-You

Solved!!
Same case for me, I copied all files to PC and formatted internal storage, copied all files back to internal storage. Worked for me..

is there another solution? its only a matter of time before the issue pops up again
note this issue only happens when connected as diskmode, where as transfering files via active sync has no issues

I've encountered this problem while copied some files whether with Activesync or USB disk mode, after checking with USB tools (Chip Genius and h2testw), it turns out that the issue comes from the wrong reported internal storage capacity by the mobile.
To fix the problem, use you computer to format instead of using you phone's utility.
Mine reports 3768MB, hope this help.

Hello,
I had the same problem with diamond.
I started windows scandisk with deepscan(both options checked) and now it works fine.

Confirmed. To get rid of the "The parameter is incorrect" error while writing data to HTC Touch Diamond's internal storage in "Hard Drive" mode you should backup all data in the internal storage, then format the drive from windows with default settings. After that copy all your precious data back to the internal storage. Vóila! No more errors!

Its just an error, sometimes your device will report more or less space than it should have, so the computer gets confused and think it copying to a diff media than when it started file transfer, just reboot phone and pc and try again

Hey this helped me too, I've got an SE Xperia X1i, same problem but this fixed it! Thanks

For me it works fine too.
Its not necessary to format internal memory, making backups, etc. Just run the scandisk as night_pz said.

Didn't work for me
Hi tried scandisk & deepascn with both options checked but it didn't work for me.
Formatting the SD with PC's disk management functionality now.
Will update if i get success.

When you have the phone connected to the PC as an external hd, the external memory (4gb) on your phone is "blocked" on your phone; you cant access it from your phone while connected. And if you have apps installed (and pics/videos) on your ext. memory, they won't work unless you disconnect from the PC. You can access the ext. mem while using Activesync. Hope this helps.

I know that , i cant access them niether connected to pc nor not

If restarting a few times (that worked for me in the past 4th time was the charm) doesn't work, go with a soft reset and if needed a hard reset... but you loose the apps and information if it gets that far.
Best of luck

[Q] Will ROM reflash erase phonebook?

I feel stupid, I really do! Normally I ALWAYS backup my data. Two days ago I had to reinstall me PC due to a harddisk crash (did have backups though, except for Outlook, since I use IMAP).
Unfortunate, I did not yet found time to sync my TD with outlook since the reinstall.
Today, I turned on my TD (turned it off last night the normal way), and the device wouldn't boot. It shows the bootloader, so my guess is a corrupt ROM image. Anyway, I tried soft and hard reset, but nothing worked, so it seems I have to reflash the ROM.
Will this erase the phonebook?

Yes, after flashing is like having a "new" phone.
I am not sure whether it will work in the bootloader mode but try to connect your phone via usb and try to access to the memory to save the respective file(s).
Good luck!

You wont be able to access the pim file (which contains all your outlook data and messages etc) by connecting it in bootloader mode, also if you did a hard reset you wiped all info off the Diamond anyway ,but if i were you i would start using pocket pim backup to backup all your contacts to sd card then if this happens again you will always have a copy to restore.
Take it as a lesson learnt , the hard way
P.S. When you say your hard drive crashed? exactly how do you mean? it crashed, did you have to replace the drive or just told windows to repair itself , on the original drive. which version of windows was it you reinstalled? if it was windows vista or 7 all your old files would have been placed in a folder called windows.old. Obviously this is only if you havent formatted the drive first and it is the original drive and not a replacement
