Directory Structure problem

Hey guys, I am trying to set up my friend's new diamond, I am trying to move .cab's to his phone but the directory structure I see through the computer and the directory structure I see in the phone are two different things, I can't seem to get a directory to match up between what I see on the computer screen and what I see on the phone screen, what gives? This didn't happen with my touch. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks!

-Martin

Re: Directory Structure problem

When you connect his phone to the computer be sure to choose "active sync' if you use the "disk drive"option you lose the common directory (internal storage)... However, diskdrive mode is faster transfer so you can alternately move all the files into my documents or even its own collective folder (make a folder on pc and put all files you want moved into it) then drag over. Now, disconnect the phone from pc and use the file explorer to move that collective folder to the Internal Storage (which shows back up again)..

Least confusing is active sync mode, fastest transfer is disk drive mode.

Re: Directory Structure problem

Also if you are using file explorer or whatever, make sure you have display all files selected in the options, same goes for windows. The difference may be just the hidden files. Just a thought!

Re: Directory Structure problem

I believe that eenieMini has the right diagnosis. I just experienced this the other night. I tried to transfer files to my Internal Storage and decided I'd check Disk Drive instead of what I normally do leaving it on Active Sync. To my amusement, my internal storage didn't show up and I was like wtf. I unplugged and reconnected and left it at Active Sync and my internal storage showed up. Just another one of those undocumented features.
