Writing clean URLS with 2 parameters that point to index.php - .htaccess

Here is my url:
website.com/index.php?folder=cars&type=ford
and would like it to be website.com/cars/ford and all pages point to index.php that I will grab the params from the url.
I can't seem to get it, here is my .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)$ /index.php?folder=$1&app=$2 [L]
This is one example I got from a clean url generator but its not working. Any ideas?

You can insert this rule just below RewriteEngine On to redirect old URL to pretty URL:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php\?folder=([^\s&]+)&type=([^\s&]+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2? [R=301,L,NE]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?folder=$1&app=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
RewriteRule ^$1/([a-zA-Z-0-9-]+) cab-details.php?v_name=$1
With your shown samples please try following .htaccess rules file. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteBase /omm/
##External redirect rules here.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(omm/[^.]*)\.php\?v_name=(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2? [R=301,L]

redirecting to localhost dashboard instead of project root

I have a site in localhost - ourallnews. I want to redirect all keyword - index, index.php, index.html to site root - localhost/ourallnews/. I have applied following rule in .htaccess but it is redirected to - localhost/dashboard/. How to fix it ?
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /ourallnews/
RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.(php|html?)$ /$1 [R=301,NC,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /category(?:\.php)?\?cat=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1? [R=301,L]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)$ category.php?cat=$1 [L,QSA]
If you're using a RewriteBase then just use a relative link while redirecting:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /ourallnews/
RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.(?:php|html?)$ $1 [R=301,NC,NE,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /category(?:\.php)?\?cat=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1? [R=301,L]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/?$ category.php?cat=$1 [L,QSA]
Make sure to clear browser cache or use a new browser for your testing.

Removing part of URL but don't redirect with htaccess

So the problem I'm looking at and haven't managed to solve!
For example the url is http://someurl.com/brands/brand
What I want to accomplish is that htaccess lets te request go to url: http://someurl.com/brands/brand but removes the "brands" part from the url.
Also if the url: http://someurl.com/brands is called the page "brands" needs to be displayed. So only when there is a brand after /brands/ it needs to do a URL rewrite to http://someurl.com/brand
I have tried this but this piece does a redirect to the new location witch doesn't exist.
RewriteRule ^onze-merken/(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301]
So I need the above with out the redirect, it only needs to rewrite the URL.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!
This is now my htaccess part where the rewriting is done!
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /onze-merken/(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=302,L,NE]
# Only rewrite if the directory doesn't exist.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteRule ^((?!onze-merken/).+)$ /onze-merken/$1 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(uploads/([a-z0-9_\-\.]+)/__images/custom/(.*)/)(.*)$ http://someurl.com/uploads/$2/__images/custom/$3/$4 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
You can use this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /brands/(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=302,L,NE]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^((?!brands/).+)$ brands/$1 [L,NC]

.htaccess RewriteRule not overriding URL

I have this .htaccess which basically is supposed to turn my links from
http://www.dsbigiena.ro/products.php?product-id=Colac-wc-cu-folie-de-plastic-cu-actionare-manuala-prin-buton
to
http://www.dsbigiena.ro/Colac-wc-cu-folie-de-plastic-cu-actionare-manuala-prin-buton/
Unfortunately, it's not doing it.
Did I write it wrong?
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/$ /products.php?product-id=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
EDIT: I did indeed test the .htaccess with "deny from all", and it works.
Your current rewrite rule only resolve a pretty URL. It won't convert an actual /products.php URL to the pretty one by itself. You need to have an explicit rule for that as
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Redirects from a normal URL to a pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \ /products\.php\?product-id=([^\ ]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/? [L,R=301]
# Resolves the pretty URL
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /products.php?product-id=$1 [QSA,L]

Rewrite with htaccess not working

i have a site wich have a dynamic url for 3 pages only. and for that i dont go for php function. So I decided to go for .htaccess rewrite rules but I am not having any luck yet.
This is my actual url: /index.php?mode=service&inid=1
I want to rewrite it to this: /home-theater
I try it my self and with this code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com.au$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com.au/$1 [L,R=301]
Options +FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.mysite.com.au/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^home-theater/?$ index.php?mode=service&inid=1 [L,NC,QSA]
I still can't get it to work.
Also I write index.php to www redirect before this code, so I guess if it cause any issue or not. index.php to www site redirects work perfectly but this is not working.
Use L flag like this:
RewriteRule ^home-theater/?$ index.php?mode=service&inid=1 [L,NC,QSA]
Remember this will not change the URL in the browser since this will internally forward request to your index.php.
Also if this doesn't work then provide your full .htaccess in your question.
Update: I have modified your .htaccess here, please try it out now after clearing your browser cache:
DirectoryIndex index.php
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com.au$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com.au/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^ http://www.mysite.com.au/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^home-theater/?$ index.php?mode=service&inid=1 [L,NC,QSA]
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} !200
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^ /index.php [L]
