Maybe put the hack back in the downloads folder where it worked properly? Didn't subfoldering come with NL? I know you could always do some (except Bodyshop stuff) but still if it worked straight in the downloads and doesn't in a subfolder why not just move it back?
Other alternatives - you could have a conflicting hack that needs a specific load order and you've changed the order by moving around the hacks. Maybe you copied a hack by accident and ended up with two? That messes things up.
Also maybe try renaming the folder . I used put all the custom content (walls and floors and sometimes objects) that came with houses in their own folders in a folder called "Custom Lots" and half the time or more, the cc wouldn't load - sometimes it would, but often it wouldn't and was very annoying. I somewhere got the idea the game didn't like having another folder called "Lots" and changed it to "Custom Housing." It's worked nicely since - probably some coincidental thing that just seems causative but still... never can tell.

OK! Removed everything that had to do with phones, and reinstalled PhoneHackOld. Works a treat now. Thanks.
