how to hide camera album in my sony ericsson phone

ever wanted to hide the camera album of your phone from someone using your phone for sometime, your friend maybe. heres an easy method to do that. just change the camera folder attributes (e:\DCIM\100MSDF\) to hidden. the best thing about this method is that its too simple and moreover you can take as many pictures from your mobile phone camera as you want and they will all get saved but they don't get displayed when you go to directory and try to view them.

now the question how do you change the folder attributes of that camera album foder? one way is to keep that directory always hidden by using a memory card reader once and let it be hidden. to change the attributes you have to right click on the folder (in windows) and go properties and "check" the hidden check box.

what? oh now u want to do it in the phone directly? oh for that you'll need some application which lets you to change the folder attributes. something like mobyExplorer from bermin software lets you browse and do those things. its a beautiful file explorer with many other feathers too. try it out ( http://www.bermin.net/mobyexplorer.html )

actually i really needed to do this because sometimes my friends take my phone and just start taking the photos from my phone without asking me which i dont like. never really told them anything but was really pissed with their attitude of not respecting someone else's privacy so started trying to figure out a way to stop it. anyway soon i think i'll be posting why love my SE phone soooooooo much. SE rocks!
