[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmegalodon:
No, you can. There are ways to put files on the 'SD card' - I use AirDroid to transfer necessary files. There are other means, but it just isn't the conventional 'mass storage' that people are thinking of / looking for.

-edit-
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Exactly. There isn't one.

Yeah airdroid is good. Adb works fine as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
Couldn't I just download the ROM over LTE and flash from wherever it goes?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmegalodon:
Indeed, ADB will suffice. There are ways, either which way. Some hear about this and assume the worst. While it may not seem 'ideal,' it sort of is. :)

Yes.

"Long is the way, and hard, that out of hell leads up to light."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yes, absolutely. But we are talking about transferring from a computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Mass Storage is NOT possible. It never will be.

"Long is the way, and hard, that out of hell leads up to light."

Yes. Or move to 'base/root' via FE, if necessary. It's not as big of an issue as some would think. :)

not actually related, but i'm using one of those air drives (wifi storage), by PQI and the app can be download from the play store.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scandiun:
Airdroid does not show all files on the sdcard, for example files starting with period (.) are not shown. Of course is not a UMC alternative, more similar to MTP.

So, flashing a new rom in the Galaxy Nexus will lead to formatting the sdcard, shouldn't it? Because it is in the same partition as data. Correct me if I am wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That is why I use ADB. It is slower, but it works 100%.

If you flash the userdata partition (like if you flash a stock ROM), then yes, it will erase /sdcard as well. (/sdcard us just a symlink to /data/media where the files are actually stored). Most custom ROMs only flash the system partition, so it doesn't erase the userdata partition.
[HTC EVO 3D] d1105373:
Hello,

Is it possible to simply modify any rom to contain pre-installed security app with user data ?

For example I have extracted lookout.apk and data from /data/data/com.lookout. My idea is simply copy these files to zip with custom rom. In case of lost/stolen phone, applications would stay with my settings even after factory reset.

I tried to put lookout.apk into system/app and data in data/data/com.lookout into the custom rom. The application was installed ok, but the data was completely missing. I am quite new in modifying roms, but I think there is some problem with missing instructions in manifest or update script.

[HTC EVO 3D] d1105373:
Pardon, can somebody move it please ?
[HTC EVO 3D] hitman4274:
You can put the apk in the data/apps I don't know if you can put the actual saved data in....
[HTC EVO 3D] d1105373:
apk is working perfectly. Problem is how to tell the rom to copy files with settings into /data/data/com.lookout. Good solution could be some script with commands such as

"cp /data/com.lookout/file1.txt /data/data/com.lookout/file1.txt" but I dont know if it is possible.

I tried to modify manifest.mf and cert.sf but files was not copied.
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
if i understand you question correctly, if someone where steal your phone and flash a new ROM you want lookout and your personal data from lookout to be installed when they flash the ROM? is this correct?

i think your confused, or either i am in regards to what exactly you mean? a factory reset and flashing a new ROM are two totally different things. a factory reset simply resets the installed ROM to its default settings. flashing a ROM resets "everything" data included. if someone were to steal your phone, flash a format all or wipe manually for that matter, and then install another ROM your data is GONE. no, getting it back for us normal people anyway.
[HTC EVO 3D] ceyo14:
I think he wants to save it at /system and have a script or something put the settings back after a rom initiated factory reset...
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
the only way i know of to accomplish this would be to place the files on the /sdcard create a script that runs at boot (a fairly simple thing) and tell it to copy the file from the sdcard into the desired folder. this would have to be a custom ROM and the sdcard would have to have the file on it. again, if the person flashed a new ROM or formatted/repaleced the /sdcard, you're just SOL.
[HTC EVO 3D] aaronpoweruser:
its possible use avast formally theft aware it integrates it self into the rom as root and survives a hard reset as well as offering alot of other features such as sms control and automatically turning n 3g and gps
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
until you wipe and flash a new ROM
[HTC EVO 3D] d1105373:
Yes, thats exactly what I meant. I didn't realize, that after factory reset is data partition (/data) wiped. The script could be a good solution.

Of course I know after flashing rom everything will be gone. But I asume if somebody steal/find your phone. He will not be flashing rom at first time. Probably he will make factory reset and insert his sim card. It would be fine to know who is using your phone and where even after factory reset.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mzedjsp:
I have Tried The Following Trackpad Notification Light Threads. but this did not solve the issue i have

First and Foremost:

Phone: G2/ Desire Z hboot

Rom: Sense 3.5 non specific [currently: VirtuousAffinity /PVTeam RunnyDroid v3.0]

SuperCharged With RCMix3D Tweaks

The Stock G2 and Desire Z have Track-pad Notification

i noticed the Latest Roms dont support this Feature.

I tried reinstalling the original G2 lights.vision.so file

this works kinda, but it also kills the speaker LED

It Re-enabled the trackpad LED on incoming calls

but it doesn't glow with notifications

I also noticed that the file lights.vision.so is removed from all the sense roms i have checked so far.

This isn't the beginning of the Apocalypse not the end of the world. this is just a observation i had and been trying to figure out nothing posted has worked or has been updated since 2010.

I'm no Super Dev. but i dabble i try to figure out small things that might get overlooked. so if you think you can help please post.

I have attached the original G2 Gingerbread OTA lights.vision.so file it this helps

No negativity please and thank you ahead of time
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nandaly:
I think you are on the right track. Looking inside this file (lights.vision.so) I see references being made to:

/sys/class/leds/red

/sys/class/leds/blue

/sys/class/leds/green

/sys/class/leds/amber

etc...

but when I check my flashed ROM I look there (in /sys/class/leds/...) I only see the amber and green folders (likely the same for many other cooked ROMS that these folders/files don't exist)

Perhaps if you can get the entire folder /sys/class/leds and copy the entire structure over along with how you've already replaced the lights.vision.so file in (where did you save this to?)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRFFTR:
I would really want to see the trackpad led working on my Desire Z again, but sadly I have no idea about how can we do it because I am a noob :( But there are incredibly talented developers in our forum, I really wish if they can look for it :)

I am using Android Revolution HD ROM and there is a folder called ''jogball-backlight'' in /sys/class/leds/ . Could this helps?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRFFTR:
No one interested in? :(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] utx:
I cannot help with the original question, but each directory in /sys/class/leds/ represents one LED.

You can try in superuser shell:

echo {number between 1 and 255} >/sys/class/leds/{the directory you want to test}/brighness

This will turn light on or off.

My HTC Desire Z contains:

amber: amber speaker LED. Only 0 and 1 are supported

button-backlight: backlight of button bar. Only 0 and 1 are supported

flashlight: flash LED, several levels are supported

green: green speaker LED. Only 0 and 1 are supported

jogball-backlight: job ball LED, they abuse a bit the interface, you cannot change brightness, but it changes type of light: e. g. 3: blink, 7: slowly dimming

keyboard-backlight: backlight of keyboard. Only 0 and 1 are supported

lcd-backlight backlight of keyboard. Several levels are supported, but another interface is used to turn on/off

I installed Valhalla Final last week and only got around to installing the SVOX engine and a voice today. When I try to go into "Text-to-speech settings" under Settings, I get a force close with this message:

Is anyone else having this problem? I don't know if this is an issue with the ROM or something I did since the installation.

How can I go about fixing this without losing all the settings I've tweaked this past week?

I went to the SVOX website, looked through their faq, and couldn't find an answer to your problem.

I did search, so apologies if this has already been asked.

Since updating to ICS, neither auto-rotate nor automatic brightness are working.

I have checked the relevant settings, and both were definitely working under Honeycomb.

I've also tried Elixir - which reports all sensors as unavailable except the microphone - and a few calibration utilities, none of which seem to have been effective.

So if anyone else has had this issue or has any suggestions, or can confirm any calibration tools that work for you, please let me know!

************A note on over clocking***********

For best results this is how ya need to do it. (only if you are using the old method exp typing 1200 into terminal emulator)

-Do not over clock until your phone is fully loaded (feels like setup lag is gone)

-Use motor_hot_plug governor

-Set min and Max to 1000

-Reboot the phone

-Wait till the phone is fully booted (again feels like lag is gone)

-Now open terminal emulater and type "su"

-Now type "1100"

-Run at 1100 for a few mins put some stress on it at 1100

-Now go to terminal emulator and type "su"

-Now type "1200"

****I'm seeing much better results if I "break it in" the over clock as opposed to just jumping in at 1200****

Thanks to Rick#2 for this overclock method.

Original OC thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1341514

************READ ME************

If you are running V4 you will need to delete the file OC3 in system/ect/init.d in order to use this overclock method, the default method in V4 is different then this one but they are both included. Please read the post linked below to learn how to set your own clock speed.

If you want to OC to say 1200 you would open terminal emulator type su, then echo 1200000000 > /proc/opptimizer

Another option is say you know your phone is stable at 1250 you could go to /system/etc/init.d open the file oc3 and change the values to 1250000000 and you would be at 1250 on every boot. DO NOT SET THIS TO A LEVEL YOUR PHONE IS NOT STABLE AT YOU WILL BOOT LOOP.

[Motorola Atrix 2] lfaber06:
Why distribute a rom as a backup?

It's just so much easier to maintain a rom like this, by just using the /system image for the restore we keep things small, simple, and updates can come much faster. We are also eliminating the possibility of a bootloop during flash to a new rom and we don't need a prep rom that causes gps issues! This will also mean the future updates in theory should never require you to format /data. That means we should not have to lose all our setting's in future editions of the supercharged roms!

____

-Beta;

It means the rom is a "WIP" Work In Progress, With enough of the features working to be a daily driver. In this stage the rom is not to be considered as a finished product or 100% stable. Expect bugs, (Report bugs!)

********Included in SCV5 update*****

-Like the lighter haptic feedback 2.3.6 has stock?? Me too... Here's how to get it back in SCV5.

1: Click here ----> http://depositfiles.com/files/fg1c2ro4e

2: From cmd or terminal type:

3: adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/

4: adb shell

5: su

6: mount -o rw,remount /dev/null /system

7: cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

Samsung stylus works for me!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] StingerDog:
My wife and I are both using the Samsung conductive stylus.

She bought it for me for a gift and at first I was skeptical because I had not used one before. But I quickly adapted to it and now the stylus goes with me everywhere I go (it works great on my Atrix and the touch screens at work).

The stylus has greatly reduced the need to constantly wipe the screen of fingerprints, although the rubber tip does leave a barely noticeable smudge on occasion. I find that my accuracy is much improved, especially trying to click on tiny hot links.

Swiping is intuitive as well, but if you swipe too quickly it may skip. You also need to get a feel for how hard to press down on the tip. As far as using drawing or note taking apps, I don't use either, but I have done some scribbling and note writing as a test on the stock pen memo app that came with the tablet and the stylus seemed to work fine. Just don't expect razor sharp detail in your penmanship or artwork.

As I would expect from a Samsung product, the build quality is fantastic. The black and chrome finish looks classy and the stylus has a solid heft to it. The barrel is roughly the diameter of a regular writing instrument and has a very natural feel when held in my small/medium sized hand.

I'm actually considering getting two more so I can have one at home, at work and one in the car, so I'll always have one available. Yes I've forgotten to take it with me and went through withdrawal.

TiBU Pro is so you can freeze DeviceManager.apk, which, if you want to feel truly safe from OTA's, you can do. the problem with doing that is that if DeviceManager is frozen, you can't dl from B&N. You would need to unfreeze (thaw) it, dl what you want, then freeze it again.

I am not sure this is absolutely needed, but hey, an ounce of prevention...

i think if you freeze device manager, the info for the owner of the device under device info becomes unavailable... not sure if thats important to you but yeah...

aside from freezing the B&N app store it also turns your owner info into unavailable.
