Hi, I would like to ask after using the android how do i connect to the computer and copy some files? because i would like to copy the drag racing data but everytime i connect my htc hd mini which is using android to the pc nothing happen?

not available yet.
you can put your sd card into your pc carddrive

Or use ADB. Have a look here.
I also posted about a FileManager based on ADB that works quite nice.
Its called QtADB. Google for it.

But I Tried To Use Adb Not Quiet Get It, New To Android, But When I put my Sd Card To My Computer I Still Cannot Find The Game Folder? Is It My Way To Install Game Wrong? I Put My Game To My Sd Card And Use Astro Explorer To Install It, Is This Way Wrong?

You can use Myphoneexplorer, with this you can conect via wifi and then you can copy files, sync with outlook and more. Work perfect in the mini with Android 2.2.
Here the link. Good Luck

Unable to copy files via ActiveSync

Hi Guys
I can connect my Leo via active sync and sync it with outlook, or add files to sync via the same method. But when I want to explore my device via my computer I can only view files. That goes to Leo itself and SD card. When I connect Leo as Diskdrive I can edit files on SD card.
Sorry, under Windows 7 Sync Centre I can create folders and copy files under Computer/"mydevice" on both the device itself and the memory card when connected using the phone's ActiveSync connection. I'm guessing you're using Vista or XP? Some helpful person here may ask you to confirm.
I use 7 as well.
However I had no problems with XDA Orbit/Orbit2, HTC Touch Diamond 2 under XP/Vista and 7. It is only HD2 that has a problem there.
Seems like drivers to me.

Well I want to re-arrange my start menu using my laptop. I active sync it and navigate to my device\windows\start menu\programs. In there if I try to move/copy/delete/create new files/folders/shortcuts I get access denied. I want to copy more wallpapers to my documents\wallpapers and get the same error.
I want to copy files to my SD card and get access denied. I can open the files, like music or pictures, to view but that is it.
I also can not copy any files out of the device to desktop.

Getting "access denied" seems to indicate you do not have the proper authority to access the files. This is just a wild guess, but you may try it anyway. Right click on the Windows Mobile Device program, and check properties. There is an option to run the program as administrator under the Compatibility tab. Maybe this will give you the authority you need to access these files. For me, no problems, running Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit.

I am really curious about the logical steps you used to reach the conclusion that his laptop is infected, and why you suggest the only solution is to reinstall Windows. Even if his computer were infected, is not reinstalling Windows a rather extreme solution? Surely a good antivirus program or running HouseCall is a much more reasonable solution.
So basically you can browse the folders of the SD and the storage, but you cannot process any files.
Other than the protected shortcuts (most of the supplied shortcuts are system and readonly) I do not have any access problems via activesync.
Is your USBtoPC set to ActiveSync?

Hi,
How to install apk when:
- data connexion doesn't work
- there is no file browser installed by default by the build
- adding apk into Android/SystemApps or into Android/AndroidApps doesn't work befroe installing the build
I tried to use also I2APK but my HD2 is not recognized in windows XP: on the HD2 which usb mode i have to use in this case: charge only? Disk drive? ...
I havae already check the USB debugging mode.
Please help me

Two options you got:
1. Wi-Fi which I assume u dont have ;-);
2. Download Droid Explorer on your computer (http://de.codeplex.com/) and install it. It detects your Android phone. You can install applications to your phone from there.
Hope it helps.
Thanks
This is assuming you're running with the folder name Android:
If it doesn't exist already, create a folder called AndroidApps under your Android folder. Copy the apk that you want to install into that folder. Reboot. (I'd suggest putting a file browser in there like astro or es file explorer). Most builds I've used will install whatever is in that folder on bootup. (When I do a new build, I usually put mybackuppro apk in there, so I can boot up and restore all my data and apps.)

Already done (see my post1) but with this ROM MCCM_HD_V1.2_Beta_3 it has no effect....
I used to do the same as you: all my favorite apk inside this rep.
Regards
- all builds will have android market in it, so download "Linda file manager"
- boot back to winmo
- connect device to pc (usb)
- transfer all your .apk files (assuming you got it in your pc) to a folder (its up to you to name this) in the sd card.
- boot back to android, open up Linda file manager and search for that folder
- there you can install the .apk files you got
Or use adb. Just get your right drivers installed

You just have to make sure the HD2 is booted into Android. Second thing is to make sure you exit out of HTC Sync program. Check in your system tray and right click and exit from it before launching Droid Explorer.
It works for me always.
Edit: n I dont have to choose any option on the HD2 screen, or you can choose 'Charge Only'. That works fine.

Thanksss
Done....
After a few hours on the net and with your advises i succeeded in installing ES File browser and every thing is OK now.
Just for my own information i tried to find a clear tuto of how to use adb and i couldn't find one: have you got one?
I need absolutly to install Android SDK?
What is the Good driver?
If i install this new driver it is not a risk of bad recognition if i connect my HD2 in WinMo mode?
For Droid explorer and I2apk it is this driver which is missign too?
Which USB mode on my HD2 device i have to choose to connect to adb? to droid or I2apk soft?
Regards and thanks again to everybody.
PS: @jigners: As i said i my first post Market Place didn't work because of non data connexion.

Contacts to computer

pls how do i copy "contacts" from my phone to a folder in my computer ? I have lots of yester yrs phones that do not do Google sync.
2. And also copying music from within the phone to another folder in my system beats me. Help please.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
1) There is an inbuilt function to export contacts to sd card.. From there copy it to your computer..
2) Use ES explorer, download it from market
1. Open the People app, then touch Menu > Import / Export. There's an Export to SD card option. Then copy to your pc via USB, bluetooth...
2. Use a file manager from the market. I recommend ASTRO, but any file manager will do.

You need the HTC drivers installed. For that you need to have HTC Sync installed on your computer. This is on your SD Card when you bought the phon or download it from the HTC website. When this is installed you will then be able to use the MPE software. Use the 'files' section to browse to where your contacts file is stored.
However, you seem to want step-by-step instructions to even the most basic things so I would very politely suggest that you need to do some more reading up of the DHD user guide plus any help on these forums. The MPE website also has a very useful forum that you should visit to learn more about that software.
Hope you get it sorted.

Thanks very much to all.

Connecting S3 to PC / Mac

Got my s3 today, but the phone wont show up on my PC or my mac when connected via usb, anyone else having this issue?
i know for mac, if you go to www.android.com/filetransfer you can download a file transfer program. The moment you connect your S3 to your mac the program kicks in and shows both your internal memory as well as your external memory. Then its just a matter of click and drag of course.
As for PC, it probably doesnt pop up, but if you go to computer as if your navigating to you drive, it should show up as a media device. Not sure if both internal and external will show (havent used on pc yet)
Hope this helps, hit thanks if you got somewhere
It's not in the my computer window ;(
the file transfer app doesn't work with my s3. I have to use kies.
Did u install Samsung Kies?
If yes and still no recognition then check this out ...

Make sure you have your phone USB mode to 'PTP' when connected to AFT. The S3 defaults to MTP and AFT won't see your phone in this setting.
The same with Linux, (or Ubuntu with 3.4.2 kernel anyway) I can view the drives, but the computer crashes when halfway through copying any file to/from.

Rooted Nexus 6P - Viewing "Internal Storage" on PC

I have rooted my Nexus 6P (thanks to help those on XDA that provided assistance and guidance). I can view all "folders" (e.g., app folders, like Tasker and it's subfolders) when I use X-plore app on my 6P but I cannot see all these folders when I plug my 6P into my laptop and pull it up in Windows Explorer (using Windows 10). I could view all folders when I had a rooted Galaxy S4. So, to move files around, I've emailed them to my Nexus (or copied them from the PC) and then used X-plore to move them to the appropriate folders. Why can't I see all the app folders (for example, I'd like to copy/move my Titanium Backup files to the Titanium Backup folder on the 6P, but I can't see it on my PC). It's probably operator error on my part, but I've scoured the web (and here) to no avail so I thought I'd ask. Someone probably knows the answer off the top of their head. Thanks!

Because you have root access to your system when using a root enabled file explorer on your phone. When you connect your phone to your computer, the best you can do is view your SD card. You can't view system/root files as a drive.
Also make sure you have selected File Transfer from the USB Debugging drop down as well (Default is Charging at least on my phone)

That's too bad. I could do it on my Galaxy S4. I had a Phone and a Card "drive" in Windows Explorer. I guess this WAD in Android 6.x? Oh well. This is not progress. . Thanks.

Yea, I have that set. Otherwise, I wouldn't see any files. I guess I'll copy my files to a folder I can see and then use X-plore to move them to the actual folder. Thanks.

I tend to agree on one hand, but given how easy it is to get root access to your phone and, after that, how easy it is to introduce a problem by mounting your system as a drive on your computer, I also understand why Google did that. It's actually to protect a lot of users who are smart enough to get into trouble, just not smart enough to get out of it.

At first I could only see my 6P internal storage on one of my 2 Windows 10 computers. Now I can see it on both after a Windows update (not sure why). Things that helped on the first computer was the USB driver I got from SkipSoft Toolkit. Other tricks include installing PDANet.... To get a good USB driver. I can see the internal storage when rooted or un- rooted on both computers as long as I choose "file transfer mode".

Are you saying I should get PDANet to get a good USB driver? Thanks for the tip about SkipSoft Toolkit. I installed that yesterday. Very nice. I already connected my Nexus to my laptop so it installed whatever USB drivers it found at that time. Do you know how to uninstall those drivers and force the phone to use the USB drivers from SkipSoft? I suppose if I go into Devices on Win10 and remove the device, the phone will get re-recognized by the laptop, but I'm not sure I know how to force it to use specific USB drivers. Thoughts? Thanks!

At first I was unable to see the contents of the phone with either my Asus 2 in one nor on my Dell All in One even after installing the standard USB driver via the Android SDK site. Once I installed the SkipSoft Toolkit I was able to see the contents on the Dell but still not on the Asus. That's why I installed PDANet on the Asus (that used to be solution for my old HTC (Evo, Thunderbolt and Rezound) phones. It did not seem to work on the Asus though, then suddenly, after a windows update, it (being able to see the files on the 2 in one) started working on the Asus. The Asus has a conglomeration of probably 3 USB drivers at least one of which is working without me having to uninstall the others.
