What you are trying to do won't work.

The Phone is not mounted as a standard USB device, so it isn't assigned a drive letter. Instead it is being mounted as a MTP device. Microsoft is being "user friendly" in the Explorer shell by giving it a path, and you can browse the folders etc. But I think it is only being seen by Explorer, and it isn't recognized as a storage device at the actual OS level. So the robocopy command doesn't see it.

If you want to use robocopy, you will need to install an app for Samba file sharing. This will let Windows see the files on your phone like another computer's network shared folders.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.funkyfresh.samba&hl=en

This will be connecting over wifi, not your USB cable, though.

So, with the Samba app installed, you might also try adding reverse tethering to make the phone use a USB cable to the computer as the network connection.

http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html

I don't know what kind of throughput you will see with networking over the USB cable. Or how it will compare with transferring over wifi. I haven't tried it myself, but I think it could work, in theory.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mordecaidrake:
Ahh I thought that was going to be the problem. I can't seem to add files on my Windows PC it keeps canceling the transfer. On my Mac they transfer fine. So what I think I'm going to do is once I get my 20gb of music on the phone just use DoubleTwist AirSync.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anmac1789@gmail.com:
i have a samsung galaxy note 2 sgh-i317M. I want to use robocopy to transfer my voice recorded school lecture notes to my laptop recorded with note 2's default voice recording app. How can I make the note 2 be detected as a drive (C:, F:) so that I can robocopy on it? Thank you

Hi,

Can someone please post a Nandroid image of the Videotron official stock P999 2.2 froyo ?

thanks a lot
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Blazing angel:
I searched from hell and back when i first got my phone. Couldn't find anything :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
BEWARE!!! Videotron model is not a P999. Videotron has the P990 and has been updated to GB 2.3.4 rom. P999 roms/nandroids are not compatible with the Videotron 2X P990.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iceskunk:
What are you talking about ?

About phone :

Model : LG-P999

On LG update :

Country : Canada

Model : LG-P999

Version : V11F

Look at the user guide :

h**p://support.videotron.com/residential/mobile/devices/lg-optimus-2x

I don't know where did you find that information but it's wrong!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Sorry about that. Got it confused with the Fido Canada version, which is a P990 updated to 2.3.4.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iceskunk:
No problem Videotron still doesn't update to gingerbread -_-
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Yes, that kind of sucks. It seems that Wind and Videotron are the only 2X variants in the word not updated to GB yet. TMO USA's is a step behind the P990s also, which were all updated to 2.3.4 worldwide about a month or two ago. LG did a worldwide rolling update that took about two weeks to deploy.When LG did evaluation units for Tracfone (Simple Mobile) in the U.S. they made them a 2.3.4 build also for the P999. I suspect the problem with Wind and Videotron is they don't want to pay for the update (carriers usually pay on a per unit basis for non bug related updates). Hopefully they are working on ICS and everyone will just leapfrog to that in about six months or so.

Edit: Sorry for taking this off topic. I hope you can find someone with a stock Videotron unit that can flash CWM and make you a Nandroid of their unit.

I am downloading this file, will test and let you know if this is what you are looking for:

"File description: Rom Vidéotron original. "
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GenghisKhan67:
Ok, I tried this out and it looks good. It's a stock 2.2.2 ROM with branded Videotron wallpaper, includes the Illico, Angry Bird Rio and Polaris Office apps, and is missing all nVidia apps (Tegra Zone, NFS, etc) that normally came with the retail phone (most if not all of these can be downloaded on XDA, just do a search in the Themes and Apps forum). Everything seems to work, including HDMI, but I only tested it for about half an hour, so no promises.

This will come handy if I need to send the unit back for servicing or replacement. Thanks to the (as yet unknown) user who uploaded this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] silent_eve:
how do you flash this back to your phone? i also have the p999 but i flash with a p990 without knowing it now my phone is not working
[T-Mobile LG G2x] silent_eve:
i tried with clockworkmod but it doesnt work because i have flash it with nvflash using this method

http://android.modaco.com/topic/335...k-rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15032011/

i think i have mofified some partition does anybody know how to flash it with nvflash please help me
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GenghisKhan67:
This is a nandroid backup, not a flashable .zip file. You need to have CWM already installed (using the NVFlash method), create a sub-directory under clockwordmod/backup (I just named it "videotron"), unzip the backup files in that sub-directory, and use CWM's Restore function.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
If he flashed a P990 rom using NVFlash method it repartitioned his memory. That might make CWM not work properly as I am not sure if CWM repartitions memory or not.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GenghisKhan67:
I made the same mistake before, I went back to stock recovery, then reset everything with NVFlash and reinstalled a P999 ROM (CM7, actually) and everything was working again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iceskunk:
oh thanks a lot it worked fine for me !

Videotron Stock ROM Nandroid backup

I made a backup of the Videotron STOCK ROM that didnt even get booted once (since I started by installing CWM with nvflasher before even booting) if anyone is interested!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Just go ahead and post it to multiupload. I am sure that can be of use to many people. Thanks for sharing. I will download it to see what differences there are in the Videotron rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] patentagosse:
Please post your stock ROM!

Please post it! I want to take my phone back to the stock Videotron ROM (if I can eventually figure out how). So I desperately need this!

BTW: I need this because I flashed the Gingerbread KDZ for the T-Mobile onto my Videotron P999 in early december (tired of waiting for the stock LG ROm for my phone). Now I'd like to get the newly released stock ROM onto the phone... but I first need to get it back to stock ROM in order for the updater to allow the update. Or did I get all of this completely wrong??? [newb alert] Anyway, I really want to get the T-Mobile stuff out of there... it's buggy and contains a lot of bloatware.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
So Videotron recently released GB for their version of the P999? Is it 2.3.3 or 2.3.4. If 2.3.4 I would like a copy of it also. Did it also update the baseband? Might be worth doing a KDZ to a TMO version.

If someone with a Videotron P999 can PM me their IMEI I can download the KDZ file for the new rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] patentagosse:
Uh... sorry, noob here. I'm not even sure what a baseband is (I think it's the frequency settings for the radio module - right?).

After reading a bit here and there, I think I've managed to figure out that the LG Updater should now install a v21* ROM onto my phone if it sees it a v11* ROM on it. I may be completely wrong about this though. But when I select Supported Models in the updater interface, it says VIDEOTRON LGP999 v21d. Of course, since my current ROM is v21e, it says I already have the latest version and won't upgrade it. Hence the idea to flash back to the stock ROM. ;+)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Yes, they just released a v21d. I suspect it is 2.3.4 with an updated baseband. PM me your IMEI and I can download the KDZ file, and then you can use the KDZ method to launch the LG Updater and it will install the new rom. I need a Videotron P999 IMEI to be able to download the KDZ file for the new rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] patentagosse:
Wow! This is so cool of you! PM sent! :+)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
@patentagosse - KDZ file is downloading now. I will post it to Multiupload and post link when done. Download will be done soon. Upload will take about 30 minutes. Thanks for the IMEI PM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] patentagosse:
Did I just stumble on the coolest bloke on here on my fisrt post or is everyone just that cool on this forum?! :D

Anyway, I can't thank you enough mate! Have to hit the sack now (almost 1AM here now)... but I will grab you file tomorrow and try it out on my phone. Can't wait to have it back to a decent ROM. The T-Mobile KDZ screwed my phone up more than it fixed it... and I just hate their bloatware. The original Videotron ROM had WAY less crap in it and it was more stable, even if it was only running Froyo.

Thanks again from out here in freezing (as in -25C) Quebec! :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Okay. After you install it you will need to use the One Click Recovery Flasher to reinstall CWM. After you flash the KDZ file please do the following:

1. Do a Nandroid backup with CWM and upload the system image somewhere and send me a download link.

2. Tell us what the date of your baseband is.

3. Tell us if your OS is 2.3.3 or 2.3.4. I suspect it is 2.3.4 coming out so recently.

Goodnight and stay warm.

Sorry for the delay. I spent my whole evening trying to un-brick my phone (and finally succeeding). It seems that whatever method I use to flash this new ROM update, the phone enter the "s/w update" screen of death. Luckily, I had the T-Mobile Rom handy. Unfortunately, my Win7x64 system decided it did not want to collaborate anymore... so I finally ended up working on my son's WinXP PC. The phone is now back to v21e from T-Mobile... so it's still buggy and I'm still depressed. :(

I would still like to get a hold of the original ROM for my phone (v11*)... so if anyone could upload it I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance! :)

Edit: I didn't see a way to delete this thread, and I guess it belongs in the Q&A forum. Sorry.

Hello. First post. I hope I searched adequately.

I have a Galaxy Nexus LTE device, and I have been using the face unlock feature. I have taken approx. 25 pics of my face, in various lighting conditions, both with and without my fedora perched upon my noggin, all in an effort to improve the utility, speed and efficacy of the face unlock feature.

My question: Does anyone know how many photos the device/software is capable of using to improve the efficacy of the face unlock feature? I'll just keep adding more examples of my face if it helps, but if the device and/or software (ICS), are only capable of using 5, or 10, or 15 photos as a 'database' of sorts to improve face unlock, then I don't want to keep wasting time adding new examples of my face.

So, does anyone know how many pics the face unlock feature can reference in its use?

Thanks!

Where did you find this option? I can't see it anywhere on my 4.0.1 Nexus.

This may be interesting, I find Face Recognition much more effective if you set up your "face" in a darker environment
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TooLegit7:
No idea but after taking about 4 in various conditions I found that my gnex recognizes my face in all but the darkest conditions
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vespadaddy:
settings> security> improve face matching.

Edit: How are people still on 4.0.1? Is it because you rooted before the OTA that came out on day 1 of release?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
Root has nothing to do with it. Some people have the Samsung builds which, to my knowledge, none has received 4.0.2 yet. Also, they stagger releases so not all phones receive the update at the same time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juniorbattle:
Thanks for clearing this out for me.

And to others, I'm pure yakju, UK. Things just seem to move slower here. Possibly Google wants to skip 4.0.2 and focus on 4.0.3 over here?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Danny80y:
I wish someone would figure this out too!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilsonlam97:
Yeah I was wondering too. I've taken more then 15 pictures with the improve feature.

Have we gotten a valid response to the ?. I would also like to know if taking mulitpule pictures would actually help or if it only keep the most recent like 5. Thank guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidmarc:
Where did you ever here of the last 5? Anytime i have a face unreconized, i take another "improve picture". I hope i am not bumping out my older pictures.

I also heard people using 2 people faces and it still works.

FYI: titanium backup works to restore the photos across roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bertsens:
Just asking myself, is this a safe method? It's easy, but safe. I wrote an article where describes that it was very easy to unlock a phone just with a picture of the owner. it's only was a issue about the size of the pic, but with some tryings, phone was unlocked but not by the owner himself
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidmarc:
I agree with you that it is not 100% unlockable. But it is only unloackable by someone who knows you. If you lose your phone in a taxi it will not be unlocked. If there are people who you live with or work with and not comfortable with them seeing what is on the phone, then it will not work. I have no issues with my kids trying to break into my phone(they have the code anyway to play games).

I do not have my corporate email on MY phone due to their corporate policy that face recognition is not allowed with their email. (My personal policy says i do not need to read work email on my time)

Where is you article?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bertsens:
It is a Dutch article what I found when I was Googling Face Unlock, it was a kinda review site voor Android phones.

glad my boss hasn't found out 'bout face unlock while I'm using my phone as a work phone (and get paid for it)

Will try to find that article an translate it into englisch with Google chrome (can't be worser then my knowledge of englisch hahahah)

They released an extra measure of security in jelly bean by adding a "blink" option, to validate that it's a person and not a picture. But it's not a completely safe method, and you'll notice the phone requires you to make a pattern or PIN lock before it allows you to add a VPN connection.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imlgl:
Hey guys.

Getting my GSII in a few days and my first task is too root & flash a new rom.

As the bootloader is unlocked on this, can I just flash CWM onto it, make a nandroid backup and install a new rom. In this case Hyperdroid. Will this work fine and then I can use superoneclick to root it.

I am coming from a Wildfire S so I am assuming there is a different way to do all this. Just want to see if I have the main concept correct :)

You can Press "Download All as Zip" inside each folder or just download indiviual files.

<--Note Some Images are PURE WHITE and have no outline, it may look like there is no picture there, but there is, I assure you & Framework folder is broken into 7 parts (200 File per Folder limit-->

All Wallpapers and LiveWallpapers in 2 folders ("ICS Wallpapers" & "ICS Livewallpapers")

*There are of course duplicate files within the drawable folders I tried to choose the biggest version, except Framework which has all files and duplicates (so those who theme will have the best version to alter and resize, if needed I can upload all drawable images and sizes for the folder you want just send me a PM or post here).

**None of the live wallpapers are altered in any way and are in original apk format from compiled ICS for Droid Incredible.

***Installing any live wallpaper apk is done at your own risk and is not advised without a dev saying it'll work on your device
