the "root of my device" is windows right? haveing trouble installing SSPL - HTC Startrek

i know this is a noob question...
i have run the sda unlock program and it says it is unlocked.
then i copied the 3 files from the sspl folder to the windows folder on my phone.
then i unplugged phone from active sync.
then i ran the SPL icon that is white with a blue header with 3 little white dots in the right hand corner of the blue box.
my phone immediately says this:
"Can't find 'JumpSpl' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and file name are correct and that all the required libraries are available."
all help is appreciated.

GnatGoSplat explained it to me. the root directory is the upper most directory, like c:/ on your pc. so it was the first folder when i explore my phone in active sync.
thx agian GnatGoSplat

Not quite. Activesync opens up to the "My Documents" folder by default when you explore your device, even though it may say "Mobile Device". You need to go up one level by clicking the PDA icon in that default folder that says "My Windows Mobile-Based Device" to get to the root directory. You should see folders for Databases, Application Data, Windows, etc.

How can i read the HD2 windows folder on my pc?

How can i read the HD2 windows folder on my pc?
Edit..
There has to be a way im just missing something simple.. trying to learn a new scripting language (well new to me lua) and it would be nice to be able to edit it in dreamweaver and check to see the edits in windows before i launched it.
it's a view thing
don't know which version of windows you're running, but go to folder and search options (or folder options), then on the view tab, push the radio button to view hidden files and folders, then click apply.
vista.. so should i be opening it in disk mode or active sync?
im trying it in disk mode noe but its still showing an empty folder.. this has to be some simple ass **** im just overlooking
i changed all my permissions to show extensions , protected system files and hidden files.. and still cant see anything in the hd2 windows folder/
ok got it..
control panel.. customize... hidden files.. allow hidden filles/ extensions/ protected files to be shown..
then un plug and re plug phone back in as active sync and there they are
Thanks!
just for info disk mode only allows access to the sd card.
in my experience the windows folder takes so long to open through the pc explorer that i
create the file on the pc,
copy to the sd card
use phone file man to copy into windows
test it, if more work needed edit the copy already on the pc, and copy that to sd then phone file man again to copy over the one in windows.
a bit awkward, but still quicker than the two minutes it can take to open when you try to open the windows folder from the pc.
Im probably missing something really small here..
Running Windows 7 Pro x64 (desktop)
I have unticked the "Hide Protected Operating System Files" in Windows Explorer and can see the Windows folder on the HD2
...... BUT.......
When I click onto it, Windows Explorer just sits there loading, and loading... and just sit there loading. Nothing comes up.
I have even left it for over 10 minutes and it still sits there loading. When I try to close Explorer, it tells me the program has stopped responding and crashes.
Any ideas ?

I've got Win7 x64 as well. Loading the Windows directory on the HD2 is really slow - maybe 2 minutes? - but it does load. Not too sure what your problem is; perhaps antivirus is interfering?

[Q] My Ringtone Folder missing...

So as my title says my ringtone folder is missing within my my document folder. I am totally new to the HTC HD2 phone (just got it yesterday) and I've read how to personalize your ringtone, but when I connect my phone to my computer (PC and Mac) and I open up "My Documents" the only folder inside it is "My POI" folder. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

I have an mac and a PC. On the mac there is no option to choose from and when I plug it into my PC I only see "open files", "back up", and "speed up" (or something to that content) and the "play music" and "add picture/video".

[Q] Can't access sdcard via USB or File Manager

I followed the guide to install ClockworkMod, and then Cyanogen 6.1 and all went fine. Now I'm trying to install Flash and fix the Android Market, but I'm having problems. First, I can't access the gtablet by USB anymore since I installed Cyanogen. There is an icon in the top left showing that USB is connected and an option of "Select to copy files to/from your computer". When I select this, a screen flashes very fast and then disappears. All I can make out is the word 'Connected' followed by some long explanation. I also see the green android guy pictured on that screen.
I've also tried connecting a thumb drive, and can't access it either through File Manager (which came with Cyanogen 6.1). Most directories I can access through File Manager show me "This folder is empty" when I click on them, including sdcard and sd-ext. One final thing I've tried is to simply create a new folder, and I get the message "could not create new folder".
When I tried to download an apk file from the internet, I get a message saying that it needs an external sdcard to download anything. Basically I'm left with a very disabled tablet...even moreso than what came out of the box. I'm a newbie at this, so can anyone please give me some suggestions?

(tutorial)to move/install apps to sd card on an unrooted LG P500

Connect your phone to the pc and dont
activate "USB Storage" mode
1. Download the SDK from here -> http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
2.Extract using something like WinRar
3.Copy the folder in the sdk and name it
to "android-sdk-windows" and paste it
onto the desktop.
4.Open the folder on the desktop and
open the file, SDK Manager.exe
5.Close the windows command prompt
window that opens
6.Untick all options you are prompted to
download and cancel the first download
window
,now in side menu open "available
packages" and select "SDK Platform
Android 2.2 & 2.3" and in Third party
add-ons select "LG Electronics" and click
on "Install Selected" button and let
download complete,
ensure the LG USB drivers are installed
if not
download from here -> http://www.lgforum.com/resources
Just check this video and you'll
understand what to select and
download in SDK MANAGER.EXE
(watch at 480p else its blurred)
7.Ensure on your phone, USB Debugging
is
on
Go to Settings->Applications-
>Development->USB Debugging and
ensure its ticked / on.
8.Dont activate "USB Storage" mode
9.Open windows command promt. Start
-> Run
10.Type in (without quotations ) "cmd"
The following should appear. (with your
user account instead of William - note its
"users" in windows 7, not documents and
settings)
11. Type in the following after the ">" at
each step (without quotations,and
including spaces and capital letters)
"cd desktop\android-sdk-windows
\tools" (might be "cd desktop\android-
sdk-windows\platform-tools" in windows
7 )
"adb devices" (it will show your device
id)
"adb shell"
A $ sign should pop up
now type
"pm setInstallLocation 2"
Another $ should pop up
And your done. Close everything,
disconnect phone, turn off phone and
then turn it back on again.
16. Now the phone will be set to install
all apps you install onto the SD card.
However, current apps on phone will
mostly still be stored on the internal
memory .
This process doesn't move these apps for
you .
So you must now manually move those
already installed on the phone.
To do this, go to settings / applications /
manage applications
Then you just click on an app, and the
move to SD card box should no longer be
Grey .
So you must now move all the apps you
want onto the SD Card.
I MUST NOT HELD RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOUR BELOVED O1

Newb Needs Help Connecting to PC

I was unable to find help elsewhere, so I was recommended to come here. No rooting, hacking, reprogramming, or anything else. Just a basic connection problem.
I recently bought a new Solid-State hard drive, and re-installed Windows 7 on it. Everything is great, and it's fully updated.
My problem is that while my LG Optimus G E980 phone will charge via the USB cable, I can't "open" it in My Computer, to transfer pictures, music, etc.
I have tried downloading the driver from LG's Website (LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.1.1), but when I run it, I get the following message:
"The Microsoft MTP driver is not found on your system. Please install Windows Media Format Feature Pack using Download Link for your media device to work correctly."
It then provided me with a link to download this. However, when I do that and run the update, I get told the update is not applicable to my computer.
Whether I try to install this update or not, it doesn't matter, because the driver installation tells me it was installed successfully. However, judging by the icon in my Taskbar with the red/white "X" and the fact that my phone still won't connect, it hasn't.
Yes, my phone is set up to ask me what I want to do when connected to the PC, and Media sync (MTP) is selected. Here's the kicker... remember, I have two hard drives. When I boot using the other hard drive, the phone connects with no problem. Same USB cable and port. Therefore, this is DEFINITELY software-related.
Is there something preventing this driver from installing? Why is the phone not installing the driver itself? Thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks.
Have you Manually installing the driver from Devices manager?
In the Device Manager locate your Android device. Then right-click on it and select "Update Driver Software".
Select "Browse my computer for driver software".
Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer".
Select "Show All Devices".
Press the "Have Disk" button.
Enter the path to the Google USB driver. Normally it is located in the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
Select "Android ADB Interface" from the list of device types.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I searched, and do not have a folder called "Android".
I did, however, find a folder called "LG United Mobile Drivers", however there are about 30 different drivers in there. I picked a few, including "Lgandadb" and "Lgnetandadb", but I get told "Windows encountered a problem", and "This device cannot start (Code 10)"
Anyone?
Ok, I'll try to put it another way. When you first connect an Android phone to a PC, drivers are installed automatically. I'm willing to bet there was an error when I installed them on my new hard drive.
Are the drivers already a part of Windows? If so, perhaps I need to do a Repair of Windows?
Are they located in an Auto-Run file on the phone, and maybe I need to re-run that program?
Perhaps there's something I need to delete or flag so that my phone thinks it's the "first time" again?
