To hide files on a blackberry is not a big deal. But people go extra miles, spend time, cause unnecessary problems like mistakenly locking up apps. To hide files is very easy and you dont need apps to do it. Ill take this in 2 ways, follow these simple steps :

METHOD 1 (Hiding from being visible in the media app):

1- Open media
2- Press menu and scroll to explore. Select
3- On the desired file, press menu and scroll to rename

4- Rename the file extension e.g jpg to anything you like. You can use jpgZ
This way the phone asks you if youre sure of your action as it may render your file unusable. Just choose ok. By doing this, your files will not be visible in the media player.

METHOD 2 (Hiding from being visible in the file explorer):

To hide files and folders
1- Go to media
2- Scroll to the desired file or folder
3- Press menu, scroll to properties and click
4- Scroll down and tick Hidden
5- Close.
This method hides your files and folders from even the inbuilt explorer.
NOTE: Try to backup your file before trying this.
