Full Version: Tutorial | Add Folders To Your File Manager
SE-NSE Forums > SE Firmware > Firmware Tutorials & Guides

The standard set of folders in the file manager on Sony Ericsson phone contains Camera Album, Music, Pictures, Videos, Themes, Web pages, Games, Applications & Other. But what if you want more folders in there - say for your documents, secret files or modifications. What can one really do?






Actually creating these folders is extremely easy! All you have to do is connect your phone to the PC or open an application on your phone with full access to the files on your memory card (i.e. MobyExplorer).

Next up, simply create a new folder on the root of your memory card and there you have it! Unfortunately it’ll be a standard folder icon, and these can’t be changed (yet - I’m still trying to find a solution - any of you guys know how?).


That’s it - hope you found it at good use! By the way this will work on just about all current Sony Ericsson phones with a memory card!


(and yes, I know some of you have already found out about this years ago, including myself, but some might find this at good use) smile.gif

I know that very long time ago.

It was an accident happen, when I put the other memory stick in my phone.
You cannot do it with the phone memory.


That great!
Mizzle
Yup, it's probably not new to many of you guys, and isn't to me either, but seeing that there was no post about it, I thought I might as well do one for the newcomers smile.gif

You got it, you're helping the new people.

In the tutorial section, there not much tutorials. So we need to make more interesting tutorial.

You'll just need an application that can add folders to the memory card smile.gif

An idea of renaming certain folders on Phone Memory.
Like.. Web Pages would lovely fit Documents...
Wally_Dog
Yah seriously, who uses the Web Pages folder? No one? Also I'm pretty sure you could add folders to it without using any program... just drag & drop it from windows to the memory card.

Where to poot the NewFolder
Mizzle
Yes, put it in the Media files folder on W810. I believe it should work on an older phone like W810.
zmejce
It should work on w200i or not.?
and i open a files on your memory card with MobyExplorer and make a new folder in Media files to ride documents or ? new folder ? tnx

I think you missed the thread....


Anyway, I made some too, but I have no use for them, you can make them in 3 ways (MobyExplorer, XS++, File-transfer Mode).
