Photo Sub-File Help

[mikjohn]

I have had the Vivid for a few days and love it. One hiccup I found however that I miss from my other phone is the ability to make folders and move like photo's into these folders. Is this possible or am I resolved to have all the photo's in one big folder?

Try this: Settings>Connect to PC>Default connection type>Disk drive. Now, plug your Vivid into a PC or Mac. Wait about 15 seconds, and TWO folders will appear on your desktop. Double click on them, one at a time, and check out what's inside. One is for the phone's memory, and the other is for the sd card's memory. Once you find the photos that you want, you can mix and match, or put them wherever you want, including the option to make and name any new folders. You can also move stuff to your sd card this way. As a precaution, i would suggest that you re-name these two folders as.."phone memory, and sd card memory", or whatever, as long as you know which one is which. When you're done, you should click on each new folder and hit "eject", and wait for the folder icon to disappear, before you unplug your phone (just a step that i like to take, to prevent any problems with the data transfer). Good luck.

after you create the sub folders, you can download 'es file explorer' from google play, and that's a way you can move pics from your camera into the separate folders you create.

Astro File manager is also a useful tool. Used with the stand alone device I've used this tool to move files which download various locations on the default 8 gb memory card to the SD2 card which I added. Some of the applications I have loaded either do not store information on the SD2 card or I did not set the application to do this. Astro File manager is quite useful to move all types of files to common locations. (And create file folders to do this.)
