HELP!?!

Im still lost.. how do i create the volatile file and where exactly do i go to do it? please help me
[General Questions and Answers] pmposadas:
emptied my Volatile folder... worked like majic! I was already about to hard-reset my phone!

really caused me to worry and mad, but this greatly hhelped! thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] LeMarchand:
xkaiser, you're a star - was ready to backup my phone, hard reset and go through the looong process of reinstalling everything when I found this thread. I had the folder, but deleted the 999 folders in it (I suspect that it was "full") and everything started working again - not to mention I gained a few MB on my internal memory.

Thanks again!

You can use File Explorer. Go to the root of your device, then open Application Data and use the menu to create a new folder called Volatile there.

Or use the cab in xkaiser's first post.
[General Questions and Answers] RogerG:
xkaiser - you've just saved me about 5 hours of re-installing / re-applaying all tweaks/customizations after hard-resetting.

a big

T H A N K Y O U ! :)

the really screwed-up thing is, that without the volatile folder (or, in consequence, without a working windows mediaplayer), the phone wouldn't even *vibrate*
[General Questions and Answers] ememdy:
thank you

xkaiser ... you rock !!!

I had my temp files set on the memory card. And lo !! the card got crashed.

So the phone calls had absolutely no sound.

After googling for 2 hrs i bumped into this topic and your solution worked like a charm

Hi there.

I attached my Samsung Blackjack II to my computer via UBS port. I found folder called "Application". I tried to create new folder called "Volatile" (without quote marks". System would not allow it. :( Gave me an error reading:

However, there was no Volatile folder listed. I went into the properties of the Application Folder and found a way to show some hidden system files. When I showed those, the Volatile folder was there. I accidentally deleted the Volatile folder. XKAISER did not say what to do if there actually is a Volatile folder in existence. I did not mean to delete it but I did. Oops!

I then created a new Volatile folder there. I turned off the phone and turned it back on. AND IT ALL WORKED FINE! THANKS XKAISER.

P.S. I could not figure out how to use the cab files download. I did not know whether to run it or download it and my computer would not let me put those files on the phone. So I had to use the manual method.
[General Questions and Answers] MaryEM:
format not supported?

I have had a blackjack2 for over 2 years with minimal problems, I have done a hard reset twice, but everything has always worked from the storage card after the fact.

I recently bought another BlackJack2, I figured since I love the phone I might as well go with that. I did the 6.1 update and the phone is saying "Cannot play back the file. The format is not supported" when I try to play ringtones. It will play music and access all of my pics and videos, just won't play the same ringtones that work perfectly fine on my old BJ2. Help?:confused:

My problem started this evening and was lucky enough to see this thread while searching for solution online. THANK YOU so much for putting the cab file out there. Problem resolved 3 hours later without hard reset.
[General Questions and Answers] bowlwoman:
Thank you so much! My husband's BJ II was massively corrupted to the point where I could see the Volatile file on his phone but it didn't show up in the computer folder when I synced the phone with my laptop. It was like it was there but not. I couldn't delete it, rename it, anything. Your solution worked like a charm, and now his phone is working again.

I went ahead and ran the .cab file on my own BJ II, even though I'm not exhibiting the same problems as with his phone. Considering they're the same age, though, I'd probably have a problem sooner or later.

Thanks again!

[General Questions and Answers] psyberian:
xkaiser, you are my HERO! :D

I was at my wit's end and trying one last desperate google before doing a hard reset on my old Sprint Mogul (HTC PPC-6800). Many, many heartfelt thanks for your detective work and excellent write-up here!

(Like many others, I had the problem that the "Volatile" folder DID exist, but was filled with 999+ empty folders. Using Resco File Explorer, I selected ALL and hit delete... it took more than a minute, but once the junk was erased, WMP is allowing ringtones and alarms to play again. Great job!
[General Questions and Answers] terminalkhaos:
:) great fix, bloody stupid problem though, the folder didnt create itself after a reflash on my diamond 2, tip of the hat to Xkaiser :)
[General Questions and Answers] egzi:
Many thanks :). There was 999 items in the Volatile folder. Worked just like that after emptying it. That was the second time it happend and I did a hard reset before to fix it. Took me lots of time then to get it work again, and now it was so simple :p
[General Questions and Answers] dkfirekom:
:cool:

thank you so much bro, my device had that problem and it's solved with your solution.

on my device there is volatile folder, but the contain is to much (about 900 file or more) and i just delete those all (emptying volatile folder) and had soft reset. tada the wmp back to work again. thankssss
[General Questions and Answers] motanne:
thanks. i had my phone set to vibrate (including the alarm)

great help
[General Questions and Answers] Nitro5955:
The easy way of deleting all of the folders from the phone is to browse to that folder. Then once you are in the folder hit the Menu -> Edit -> Select ALL #. Then you can do a Menu -> Delete to remove them all.

Thank you xKaiser for the fix to the problem. Worked for me by manually deleting the files. I will still install the cab when I am at home where I can get the file on it.

[General Questions and Answers] hotrod1200:
This is the second time this has happened to me. The first time, I deleted ALL the files from the Volatile folder and my phone was back to normal.

Today, it happened to me again but this time, the Volatile folder was empty. I noticed all the XME files were in the Application Data folder so I deleted them. Still came up empty handed. Next, I installed the cab file but still no luck.

Weird thing is, I can hear my ringtones and notification alerts if I receive a call, text message, or my alarm goes off. I CANNOT hear them through "Ring Tone" or "Other Sounds" though.

Any other suggestions besides doing a hard reset???

HELP!!!!

[General Questions and Answers] nohairs:
The contradiction of persistant volatile files.

Thanks for the suggestions. Had the same symptoms; no media player and some system sounds not playing. The "volatile" folder was present on my device but contained about 1000 files. Just deleting the contents of the "volatile" folder got this fixed. For good measure I also deleted about 300 files from the "volatile" directory on the sd card. There is something about that # 1000 that seems to be a factor.

No surprise to find a good answer here. Thanks again!

OMG OMG OMG!!!!! (double rainbow)

I have been waiting 2 years for this fix for my LG IQ (expo)... I was soo sick of doing hard resets every 3 months (on the dot) because of this issue.

I was really disappointed that microsoft got rid of their "microsoft my phone" cause I would need to use it after every hard reset..

I must have been hitting the 999 folder max each time.

Deleted them all today.. and my WM works.. phone rings.. videos play.. SO HAPPY.. no need to get a new phone.

Google maps is great... I have to say (my opinion though) that the new version of Sprint GPS is pretty good too. (but u have to have sprint).
[Touch Pro CDMA] hbenz2008:
I say both are very average compare to other software: Iguidance, Garmin XT, Tomtom, IGO.....paid but much better, 10 minutes isn't normal Eclipse, you may wanna eclipse Google and try something new...plenty or resources out there:D
[Touch Pro CDMA] apinkel:
If you just want to know where you are and want to find businesses close to where you are at then google is nice.

If you want to use your GPS for driving directions get a true turn-by-turn app like igo, tomtom, Garmin, CoPilot, etc.. Not to mention you don't need a data play for these apps. Maps are loaded on the phone.

I've got garmin XT and I love it.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Teej53214:
I agree with above.. sure the google one is cool for what it does.. so is the new one in Bing for that matter... but really, nothing beats TomTom... it will work even if you have no internet connection...... (assuming you have a map of your entire country on an SD card).... But the voices are cool, the diffrent options for a car icon is cool.... the layout is cool... and the "show off" effect is cool...

"Oh, your phone has AT&T Navigator that only works where you have coverage?, Well, my phone has real TomTom, just like the ones you buy at Best Buy for $200, and it works everywhere"..

lol... sorry, but it is fun... And if you you do have an unlimited data plan, and are willing to pay hte monthly fee, you can access TomTom Plus which offers live traffic (and it can auto-reroute you if it is faster another way), along with gas prices, weather, etc....

That is my 2 cents...
[Touch Pro CDMA] EclipseTouchPro:
The reason why I hate google maps is because it takes a long long time for it to locate me... takes a good 5-10 mins till it finds me. I want to know what app or what I need to do so that I can use a gps that will pick me fast. What do I do ?

does tomtom locate fast? and is it free?

I have started using Waze with my TP. I love it. Its user based so if there is someone stuck in traffic, they report it and you get updated. Im a huge fan.

Run it on my Fuze and it works great! It's not free but I was part of www.lg-incite.com forum before getting my Fuze and they have a thread over there dedicated to Garmin GPS. If you have a data plan, you get live traffic and can search a business in your area using the built in Google Search.

Quick GPS

Hey Eclipse I would reccommend trying quick GPS, it updates satellite info from the internet so beware but attains a much faster lock on once it has run the update, it DOES use the internet so unlimited data is reccommended.

This is not an application issue. This is a phone GPS issue. You will have this same issue with every GPS application until you resolve the GPS acquisition issue.

I have an issue with the GPS device every few months. Some bad data corrupts the memory location and won't find satellites. To fix it I change some settings and it seems to force overwrite the nonvolatile memory files.

1. Open Quick GPS

2. Tap Menu at the bottom

3. Tap Options

4. Uncheck "Auto download when connected to PC via ActiveSync"

5. Tap OK

6. Close out of Quick GPS and quit the application

Now it may take 30 seconds to acquire satellites for the first time. Each time after you should acquire satellites very quickly.

I occasionally have that problem with the market, do you use a task manager app? It might be stopping your market app from running every now and then. Try redownloading the app you're trying to get, but make sure you stay on a screen where you can see its progress.

Just like the title says, does anyone have any insight into installing a regular Linux distribution onto a Nexus One? It seems to use a fairly standard Linux kernel, so I imagine that one major obstacle has been cleared. The main problems are that I don't know how to tell it to go from the kernel into a normal Linux userspace (am I using the correct terminology?), and what sort of names would it use for its hardware devices -- would a regular Linux distribution be able to communicate with them without too much special configuration? (For example, would the MicroSD card be a standard sd* device, or would it have a different name?)

Aux connections for the car dock? It appears to be really thin to have wires going through the frame from the connector pins, but I can't really tell.
