BB Torch :: No Ability To Explore - Cannot Access Hidden Files
Aug 4, 2011
I don't have the ability to 'explore'. I have hidden files and can now not get to them. I didn't have this problem until I had my handset replaced under insurance.
My child dropped my phone from the top of the stairs, and my screen will not display anything it has several hair line cracks on the screen.- if i swipe my fingerprint i can hear the phone opening but again display doesn't work. I have removed all my pictures and files that are visible to an external hard drive, all is left to access is the pictures and files i have in private mode. I wish to remove these before sending phone back, its essential i retrieve these hidden folders. Is there any possible way to gain access from my pc???? i can swipe my finger to unlock phone but thats it.
I just installed Kaspersky mobile, and after a scan I've seen more than 18000 jpegs in E:system, a folder that I cannot access from phone or via Nokia Suite. Is there any way I can browse that folder and delete unwanted files? I think I got lots of useless files there after I installed Nokia Belle since lots of applications dissapeared. Also, I'm trying to see the hidden process that runs on my phone and I have no idea how because that dont shows in the application list. I dont know how to free more space on C: , got 46 Mb free and I dont know to free up more space.
i used to be able to go to Media, then hit menu key, Explore, and i could view the files on my media card. this option seemed to disappear. where am i going wrong?
All my media files on the memory card are hidden. When i select any of the options in Media menu, I can only access the item that have been saved onto phone memory. All the files/folders that where on the memory card have dissapereard.
When i am in Explore mode and select the Show Hidden option, I can see all my previous files/folders. All the folders on the mem card have been hidden, and thus my device cant access the files.
How do i change this attribute permanatley, restore it to what it was.
The files on both my media card, and device are unable to display. When I access my phone through my PC, the files do show, but from my phone I get a message like this: Unable to display file/Device/Blackberry.exe. The icon next to the file name has a question mark in it. This happened after I connected my device to a friends PC to copy a large file.
I am currently using a bb 9800 but I cannot access any of my media files all of a sudden tried re starting it but still didn't work. When plugged to the PC I still can't view any files.
I have the latest bb Bold, and when I go into my media, explore, then click on show hidden files, I can see my hidden files but the problem is, my phone refuses to let me unhide them.
I recently added a new app to my phone, upon completion of installation of app I noticed that all my pictures were missing. At first I thought they got deleted and was really upset but upon exploration I have found them. When I go into the media file and go to explore it brings up my device memory then I go to home where there is nothing but I can hide the user folder but when I go into the properties of the user folder I can not unhide it because the hidden button is greyed out. Does anyone know how to change this or fix this? I would really like to have it back to normal! Again I don't have a memory card it is just the user file on the device memory that will not unhide
Up until last week I was able to merrily sync my songs onto my Storm's memory card using Windows Media Player, then all of a sudden all the songs on the memory card disappeared from the Storm's media player and I could only see the songs on the phones onboard memory. However, you can see and play the files by exploring through the file system on the Storm and choosing the "show hidden" option in the folders. As these files cant be viewed through the Storm's media player, the media experience becomes very poor. Now, I noticed that if I sync the songs to the Storm using Windows Media Player AND choosing NOT to create a file hierarchy on the Storm's memory card, the songs appear correctly in the Storm's media player, with the disadvantage that the memory card becomes a bit cluttered because tracks arent sorted into folders as I have chosen not to use a file hierarchy when syncing.
Ok so as much as I have learned to do with my storm 2 I just tonight decided to experiment with the hide option for files or pics or whatever. And now my question is how do I find em now? I figured I would find a view hidden files option but don't see it and I accidentally hid a spreadsheet I kinda need lol.
I am using HTC M8 and my issue is with hiding video files. For hiding video files I am using gallery vault app. The problem is that I have a video file (wmv format) 1 gb in size on my SD card and when I try to hide the file using gallery vault or any other video hiding app the video file reduces phone memory. I was told that when a file in SD card is encrypted it is getting stored in the same destination (SD card). For eg. a file in SD would remain in SD even after hiding. So why does the files which are hidden is reducing my phones memory. I had the same problem with my S4 phone.
So I checked the box to hide files on my media card but it seems that I can't get them back - I am using 5.0.0.423 and the "explore" option is not present when I click the menu button under "media". Any other ideas?
I seem to have lost the 'Zoom' ability on the camera ! (Torch 9800) Yes, it is turned on in the settings but can't operate when trying to take photos (with finger on screen nothing shows) - it works on viewing pictures taken ! Tried turning off zoom then saving and then resetting and saving but to no avail.
I have lost the ability to zoom in or out when taking pictures. I have the "digital zoom" activated on "camera options". I can still zoom in and out when looking at the photos I have taken.
Yesterday I upgraded the software on my Torch, to whatever the recommended upgrade was. Now, when I go to my contacts and touch the touch screen to dial one of the contacts, nothing happens. By upgrading did I all of a sudden lose the ability to dial simply by touching the contact name?
I accidentally hidden a picture and i know you have to go to your media folder and click the menu button and you have to click explore, but my explore button has disappeared. i dont know how to see my hidden pictures..i have rebooted my phone and it still hasnt showed up.
