[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
I've just noticed this today and wondered if anyone else has see this?

There seems to be an inconsistancy between the tablet and the view of the Device Storage when connected to windows via micro usb port.

For instance. I connect the tablet to windows with micro usb cable and I view files under "Device Storage" which is the contents of the internal sdcard from /mnt/sdcard.

I also start up an adb shell and cd to the /mnt/sdcard directory. As expected, both show the same files. And if I create a file or folder in the windows exporer view, the file or folder shows up in the adb shell view as well.. great..

However, If I create a file or folder using the adb shell, it does not get reflected to the windows explorer view (until the tablet is rebooted). Likewise, if I create file in the explorer view and then delete it in adb shell, it stays around in the explorer view. Also, if I delete a file in the explorer view, it stays around in the adb shell view.

Anyone know what's going on here and why it doesn't stay in sync? Is the windows explorer view using some kind of cache view?

Thanks

I have had 100% of the same thing happen on my A500. I often find that my files are in the wrong location and I still cannot get the external SD to read from the computer.

I have another problem concerning these issues maybe you could help with. I may have either flashed an update without the proper files to go before it; or I have have forgotton to wipe something. Nonetheless, my A500 wouldn't boot. When I did some research, I went to this site {http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=2127076#post2127076} because it seemed in my eyes to have pertinent information. I got the update.zip to install and my A500 booted again! However, I could not get to stop two because my insternal SD card was wiped somehow and when I get to the main screen, do the circular unlock, the launcer, and many other programs repeatedly force close, so much so that I cannot do ANYTHING. How would you approach this, and is there a way for me to get into CWM. I have a recent nandroid backup that what 100% functional, and I would hope the MD5 sums would still match....

Any help/advice is greatly appreciated!
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
ibrooks.. try the instruction in post#1 of thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1132760

That will wipe the data, which I believe is causing all your force closes.

Once that is done, then you can root with gingerbreak.

After that, you can continue the instructions from that thread you referenced. But instead, I would suggest flashing the official 3.1 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1159443

Edit: The official 3.1 is not pre-rooted, you'll need to do the 3.1 root app if you want root access back.
[Acer Iconia A500] UnicornKaz:
uh... it's not pre-root...it's stock and will need "iconiaroot" to root ;)

[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
Thanks.. I guess I was thinking about the leaked version that was released with pre-root. i've updated my post.
[Acer Iconia A500] dude64:
I've had that problem happen when I was trying to downgrade from the leaked 3.1. I was getting frustrating trying to flash different ROMs and the about kept showing the same version over and over again. Finally I realised that the files were just being copied to the device storage instead of the SD card. Taking the card out and copying the files directly did the trick.
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
Great! Nice to know that I'm not cRaZy! I was having quite a time last night trying to copy files back and forth from the tablet, only to have them not show up where I knew they were in Windows explorer when connected via usb,.

Ok dont mean to discredit the developers of the roms we already have I came from the samsung vibrant and I flashed a new updated themed rom daily are we going to see some new updated roms in the near future

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lannister80:
The Gingerbread update is supposed to drop very soon for the G2x, so all the devs are waiting for the new codebase to come out so they don't waste time trying to improve the crappy Gingerbread leak that came out a month or two ago.

Don't worry, stuff will pick up soon. Until then, install a good Froyo ROM (I like EagleBlood Froyo 1.04).

Ok cool thanks I will sit tight this phone is so fast lol

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kneedraggin101:
So i got this error after doing the update to Virtuous 1.0.2 or w.e the most modern version offered by Rom manager...

phone worked last night, did a restart this am, and thats what came up...

now it says i have to wipe the data part partition or my device will be unstable.

So is this just telling me to do a full wipe? So go into clockwork, re load the virtuous, and do a full wipe while doing it?

is that the easiest way to fix this.... also any idea why this happened?

I am running Mosaic IV. I seen a theme over in Galaxy S I9000 "Steel Blue" http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1018370. Can install it on my captivate? If so how, if not why not?

Thanks!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kdwolf85:
This should have gone in the Mosaic IV Q&A section. And to answer your question...Typically when installing themes you want to make sure the theme was made using the same firmware version that you are running. Such as a JVH theme should be applied to a JVH rom. Also you could have asked in the theme thread how to install the theme, but I checked it out for you. It's a CWM file. Just flash it in recovery, but make sure you make a back-up in case something gets messed up.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] 2Quik:
I did verify that it was a jvh rom. but i did not know how different the captivate & I9000 are. just wanted to make sure.

When you make sure i back up, what do you mean excatly? back up theme, if so how? or do you mean back up rom, kernel?

thanks for replying!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Reynaldinho111:
Just make sure you have a theme that you know for a fact will work with Mosaic IV. That way if something does mess up you can just boot into recovery and flash that theme instead of re-flashing the entire rom :)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] 2Quik:
Cool that's what i figured, i did have a back up. Everything looked awesome except for the "Contacts". When i would click on contacts it would get this error

"!Select an Action

Sorry!

Any ideas?

Thanks again for your reply.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] wretchedhorror:
I always thought those I9000 themes would only work on a stock platform.of course with the matching firmware is this true?

I wouldn't mind trying out some of the jvp themes on symply rom.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Reynaldinho111:
I tried a couple themes from over in the i9000 forum .. You got that because those themes are not 100% compatible with our roms. The Cappy devs tweak stuff in the framework a little differently because of hardware differences etc and that causes mismatches, especially with themed apps like contacts. I had the worst case of that ever when I flashed a theme over mosaic 3 and my dialer would give me that message after every number i typed in. crazy things can happen Its best to just to wait it out until the Mosaic team port all their stuff, that way you wont have any problems at all. They have all the best themes anyways. :p
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Reynaldinho111:
I mean you can try, I found a couple that worked with roms I was using. Always keep a backup theme though. Ive been put in bootloops before and had to re-flash entire roms at like 12% battery just to get myself out.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] 2Quik:
Ya thats what i kinda figured. that them is awesome and i would love to have it on my captivate.

Hello people!

I and some people at meizume.com looking for some help in installing ClockWork to our devices. HondaRacer from meizume was so kind, to make the world's 1st custom ROM for the Meizu M9. It is a zip file although, so we need to install Clockwork, to make it work.

Maybe some experts here at XDA know something about this, and could share it with us!

[Milestone 2 General] mkmck:
Hey. Does someone you know, what is the highest (read: critical) battery and HW temperature in this phone? I am a little bit scared when I'm getting even 55*C on battery when I am using it as a navigation connected to charger in a car. I know it's too high because when it's heating over 49*C it stops charging. My question is how dangerous is such high temperature for HW and Battery? Is it normal behavior? :confused:
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
I never had such high temperatures, and I live on a hot country (Brazil). Try to check apps running in background, or, if you are using 3G and charger, it can get really hot. But I think it's normal, since my phone reaches 45ºC while charging, and I don't use 3G.
[Milestone 2 General] scottyn:
with 3g my phone gets crazy hot. i once left it on overnight (it didnt go to sleep) and when i woke up it felt dangerously hot, musta been 50deg or something

otherwise, with wifi it just gets warm... still worrying though, considering none of my other portable devices have ever gotten this hot before... just shows where all of the battery life goes to! :S

i dont think its the battery getting hot though, it must be the cell chip. my batt temps are usually pretty low, and the batt itself doesnt seem to get hot. its just the panel above the battery that warms up
[Milestone 2 General] mkmck:
My phone got so high temperature (55*C) when I was using navigation. Moreover it was pluged to the car charger (but wasn't charging because of high temperature) and mounted to the window in hot sunny day. And I'd like to know how dangerous is such high temp. for the device.
[Milestone 2 General] scottyn:
I wonder if we have dud phones? my battery life sucks ass... bare able on wifi, but **** with 3g
[Milestone 2 General] newbietown:
Agree with scott. With prolonged use my battery doesnt heat up, just the panel above the battery (where the camera is)

And my battery life sucks too. Gotta keep it charged in the car for even short (30 min) trips with navigation
[Milestone 2 General] evilmtv:
Try checking the manual (if there is) for operating temperatures etc.

I'm not exactly sure of how it'll affect the phone but it poses health problems due to higher radiations.

Try preventing this by ensuring all other (running) apps that you don't need are closed by using a task killer and all connectivity stuffs (eg. bluetooth, data sync) ESPECIALLY THE BACKGROUND DATA if you don't need it. Also, if possible try to refrain from covering the back panel (mainly the area near the camera) and allow ventilation to let it cool so it won't overheat.

What else I do is leaving the keyboard opened so there's even more surface area for it to cool.

The problem isn't just about damage, but that you don't want to be holding hot metal.

Yes it sucks but its a price to pay for such high specs packed in such a tiny casing.

My friend who owns Samsung Galaxy II has his phone heating up even more frequently and quickly, so we're not the only ones ;)
[Milestone 2 General] scottyn:
Its annoying because we know its avoidable and shouldnt have been allowed in the final design by motorola
[Milestone 2 General] n3ptun3:
I've never seen such high temperatures with my M 2.

Highest was 47ºC while charging and playing a game. It usually sits around 35-36ºC idle, and 40-42º during games.
[Milestone 2 General] mkmck:
That's normal guys... Every device dying in a "few minutes" with 3G. And U know what? From my last 3 devices which I have been using to surf in the Internet with 3G (Moto RIZR Z8, Nokia N86, Moto Milestone 2), MM2 lasts the longest.

That's right, but every app just showing the battery temperature ;)
[Milestone 2 General] Tillidus:
Damn..

Yesterday my milestone 2 became hotter as ever, just above the battery (where the camera is, like newbietown). First I turned it off, but it stayed hot even then. After I removed the battery it became cool again.

But! Now my MS2 is completely dead... :eek:

It's really not turning on again, and charging is really weird (irregular flashin led). And my warranty is void because of me installing argen2stone I guess .. :mad:
[Milestone 2 General] n3ptun3:
Well, just flash a stock rom and they'll never know...
[Milestone 2 General] Tillidus:
My phone is not recognized on my computer using USB . Can I still use rsd lite?

Try taking it to warranty. Argen2Stone is so lightly modded, maybe they won't mind it. Anyway, you have nothing to lose now. And this really looks like a HW problem, not SW

Sent from my A953
[Milestone 2 General] Tillidus:
Beginning of next week I will hand it in for warranty. I think it has something to do with the power circuit in the phone. Sometime i've used HTC chargers :( (1A) instead of the motorola charger (0,85A).. That could be the cause :mad: Hopefully they cannot see that.
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
I don't think that's a problem. I always use a Nokia charger, I find the original charger too short, the Nokia has a good lenght. And I never had problems with overheating. Also, 1A is the maximum current that the charger can provide, not the nominal current@ anytime

[Galaxy S II General] iznee:
Absolutely right...my phone is about 1 month old..and the official samsung charger is already broken..not charging anymore..i guess there is an internal wire breakage at the flexible point of the charger becoz when i shake the wire at that point it starts charging intermittently..

[Galaxy S II General] 3waygeek:
At home I use a Lenmar AC-to-USB 1A charger I picked up at Fry's for around $10; in the car I use a 1A Cygnett 12V-to-USB charger, also from Fry's. Both charge the device at least as well as the OEM AC charger; the car charger appears to charge the SGS2 even when I'm running CoPilot Live.
[Galaxy S II General] ironslave:
I use the iGO charge anywhere.

It's a tad pricey, but since the GS2 battery life isn't great (my only complaint on the phone), the charger is great for it since it has an internal battery that charges up when you put it in an outlet so you can charge the phone without needing an outlet. Great for in school or walking around, just put it in my bag and press the button and it charges.

Some (bad?) chargers will disable touchscreen

I have a couple of usb-chargers off ebay and they give some trouble.

When connected, the touchscreen will not work anymore.

This is mentioned in the manual btw.

Guess the SII is a little sensitive.
[Galaxy S II General] krabman:
Yeah, ebay chargers are a crapshoot. Head to walmart or similar and read the power specs, get something that puts out 5v at 1A LPS. This will charge much faster than the often usb based standard 500 mA chargers and the battery will not be harmed at that charging level which is what many stock HTC chargers put out nowdays. Do not get anything less than 500mA, this is the usb standard and works but will be slower to charge. El Cheapo no name chargers on ebay and such may have the spec but may or may not actually put out the juice. You can usually tell this because the phone will have problems like the ones mentioned right here. The stock charger does not put out any special juice, juice is juice. If a charger puts out to spec the phone will work while charging.
[Galaxy S II General] Tinderbox (UK):
micro usb, is now becoming a common standard on the majority of mobile/cell phones to reduce the mountain of chargers with different connections , before long i would not be surprised if they start selling mobile/cell phones without a charger as an option.

A big plus will be if your away from home and your mobile/cell phone battery power runs out , it should be easy to borrow a charger to get you going again :)
