I know I was having problems downloading (some) APKs from the browser before installing "Download All Files" from the Android Market. Not sure if this works with BT also, but its worth a try.

You can also create a folder for this purpose on your internal sd.
Creating a folder -
- In the root of your internal sd, create a folder named media.
- Within that folder, create a folder named audio
-Within audio, create folders named notifications and ringtones
- From here, put desired ringtones in the appropriate folder and reboot. They'll show up in the selection screen.
There are more than a few apps in the market that will do what you want. Ringtones, Ringdroid, and there are others.
SMS popup works good too

Ha, overlooked that part. I found this. Seems to be what you're looking for. There's also a free, but limited version.
Yes SMS pop up works for seperate contacts

How to attach files using Browser

Hi Guys,
I use a website where I have to attach file using browser (i.e. I can't use Email app or any other). I can only use Browser to send files but default android browser shows me only three type of files; Audio, Picture, and Video Files but the files I have to send is like .doc , .xls , .ppt ... so, what's the solution for this issue? I have Root Explorer installed, but the option is not there so that I could chose specific file to attach.
I tried Dolphin Browser to attach files as well but no help!
I look forward to hearing from someone.
Thanks!
Is my query so hard no one is replying...

You might need some sort of office suite. I am using office suite pro, which is not free. If I am not wrong, only the Gmail and email app allows you to attach ppt and docs.

You can attach every type of file using opera mobile

It's not working for me.
Sent from my MT11i using xda app-developers app
Oops! Really? Android can't even let us use browser to attach these files? That's really something ... I hope someone else could help me out?
Thanks!

Use opera mini/mobile. It has a built on browser that can let you upload anything form sd. Or install something like ES File Explorer. It should work!

Picture location

Ok I have another question. I transferred all my pics from my last phone to the DNA and they don't show up in the gallery app. They show up in quickpic though. Any wait to get them to show up there?

If you're rooted, try using file explorer to move the pictures from wherever they are to the gallery directory. Otherwise, send them to yourself and download them to the phone again.

Try clearing cache on the gallery, or restart the phone and open it.
Make sure there isn't a .nomedia file in the directory of the pictures.
If all else fails you can move them to the default picture location, and you don't have to be rooted as the guy above me seems to think.
But the default gallery app seems to be really good for me about detecting pics.

Download an app called rescan media from the play store, it'll fix your problem. :good:

Thanks everyone. Ill try a few of those

I didn't say he had to be rooted, I just said that it would make the process easier. He can just as easily send himself the pictures from the other app and download them to his gallery. OP, you should try whatever suggestion you think works best.
