Hello,

I like your program - it looks great and easy to use. My problem is
that my SGH-D807 Samsung phone does not have a regular folder/file
system. When I attempt to designate a folder in config it is just a
blank box, no folders or root type file system to navigate.

Additionally I attempted to upload a log file, but the phone will only
let it be in 1 place "other files" and egpstrack does not see it.

Any ideas on how to make the application use this "other files"
location as the default folder for everything?

I am sure this phone is using a non-traditional file system and is the
main cause of the problem.

Thanks

In principle, real file system is transparent to applications, and it in charge of platform running as S.O, to manage this thing. So for applications, accessing to a media card, main memory, extended memory.. etc.. etc.. should be indifferent.

Maybe your problem is related with permissions granted to eGPSTrack, can you check if under application management in your mobile, you can find something like "user data access" or "file system access" and check that eGPSTrack has set anything diferent from "not allowed" ?
