Installing on HTC REZOUND is special

Post by lukester01 »

On my new HTC REZOUND the the sd card is mounted as ext_sd and so is not recognized as a place for the 'skins' folder. I had to move via the file browse on a computer to the built in 'HTC storage' for the keyboard program to recognize the directory. (I could not move the folder with IO file manager for some reason to the HTC STORAGE)

Help.

I've been reading about how to install these cool skins on my HTC Thunderbolt. I used my Mac, mounted my cell to the Mac, made a directory on the SD card names Skins, copied the brass.zip file into this folder on the SD card and this file won't show up on the general settings under skins.

I've been trying since last night since I downloaded the Pro version and it still doesn't show up. When I go into Astro, I see it under /mnt/sdcard. I see the skins folder, I go into the skins folder and see brass.zip (it shows as /mnt/sdcard/skins and then brass.zip. What's the problem?

Please advise at your earliest convenience as this purchase from last night does not work for some reason.

Thanks.

I have a droid bionic.

I downloaded the zip files on my computer,
plugged my phone into the usb,
created a "Skins" folder on the removable drive,
copied the zip files to the "Skins" folder,
unplugged the usb cord,
went to files in the phone apps drawer,
found the zip files,
clicked on them and they extracted into a folder in the skins folder.

I cannot get the skins to show up in smart keyboard!
Uninstalled the app and reinstalled. Still not there.

Any help??????
