thank you !

My next question is how do I get the phone / media player / gallery to index it

& use as default storage ?

When I put in a vfat (not exfat which is dodgy) formatted card the media app added the new songs.

Does your card show as mounted in settings -> storage? The exfat card which didn't work showed as unmounted even though I could browse and play the files on it...

It only needed time

17,000 photos & 3,000 songs

that is every photo & song I've had since my N900

Haha, that many files is going to take a while - that's a lot of photos!

I might keep asking questions here, rather than a new thread.

& I'll change the thread title

Today's question / project:

Patches:

How do I get them working in Sailfish X?

Is there (ever going to be) folder support? - what I mean is will gallery / media allow searching within specific folders?

How do I select a specific mp3 as a ringtone (/ message alert)?

Do any of the file browsers show images?

Patches: Install warehouse (the community app store) and from there install patchmanager and patches.

Ringtones are part of the ambience, the top item in settings. 'Add actions' if it's not listed...

I'm happy enough changing, creating and using ambiences - my current one is based on a photo of a sock.

What I want to do is select a particular mp3 as my message alert tone. However there doesn't appear to be an easy way to select a particular file as a ring (or message alert) tone. One good thing about Windows phone was that it would only look in a particular folder for ringtones. With my media library & no way of sorting it will be quite recouped tedious scrolling through 11,000 songs to find the exact one. search didn't work either .

Patchmanager or patchmanager2.0?

no matter which I choose I get failed to install or another error message. All I want to do is have an analogue clock on my lock screen.

@rfa, I had exactly the same problem! What I ended up doing eventually is keep my music collection on the SD card (which you have to do anyway since the Jolla's internal storage is so small) and my ringtones in the internal storage. Whenever I need to change the ringtone, which thankfully is only about once a year when the damn phone forgets the current setting again, I just take the SD card out.

Install patchmanager and the Lockscreen Analog Clock patch from the webcatalog inside patchmanager.
