Yeah, moving it after youve sync'd it most definately won't work, if it's saved to that location then you move it from that location, it's going to keep looking for it in the original location.

I've never used Amazon Mp3 or DoubleTwist, so I can't say maybe you guys are missing an option. Make sure you throroughly read and check all available settings in both programs.

All I know is that the externsl SD does not become dead storage, as I use mine everyday and play music, videos, view pictures, move/zip CWM backups, everything.

Maybe you can try uninstalling Amazon Mp3 /Doubletwist, reinstall, then before running it even once move it to your external SD. Then run it/set it up once it's in your external SD. Maybe that'll force it to save to your external SD.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stormglove:
I know its not dead space, haha. I wasn't completing about that, and I searched all over, its those apps. Google music is the same. There were numerous complaints on all there websites about not having a choice where to DL to, making the extremal in dual storage phones like ours, become useless when trying to get playlist off our computers onto them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EnVy MoNtOyA:
Ok as for music i use Google music and my offline music wont show when moved to External SD.. games is the same.. they just dont look for the External SD directory... im assuming that there is just one big hunk of memory in the phone and its partitioned into two parts (Phone Memory and Internal SD). If i can get rid of the partition that separates the two and just make it so that its all just phone memory without Internal SD.. the phone would be faster wouldn't it? and when i use my SD card it will just show up as SD card leaving only two sources to save or move things around to? again i could be way off and totaly wrong.. im only a noob at this point but im open to wisdom and learning as much as i can since im going to be a android user FOREVER :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zeemann77:
I am using "Media Monkey", and have no problems copying to the external SD. As a matter of fact, all of my music is sitting on the external. Its also (I think) the best music app available...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
I guess my question is the 500mb of RAM just partitioned off the mass storage sd internal like the 2gb of memory for apps? Or is it 500mb chip in there seperate some where? Which im guessing it ia since it would have to run at a faster clock than the internal sd can
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fenixjn:
Its my understanding that the memory used by the applications and RAM is shared on the same chipset that it's separate from the storage (internal SD) chipset. Checking the teardowns on http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Epic-4G-Touch-Teardown/6481/2 shows that 16GB chip being separate but the one that holds the RAM and internal app storage is not described there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
Actually what the op is asking can work. It would need kernel changes tho and mappings of partitions changed. So that the primary partition (where the OS is installed) becomes say 1gb. Then the rest goes to internal storage (where all apps go.) Then nothings left for a "internal SD." Then the SD card can be used as the only storage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EnVy MoNtOyA:
OMG! YES! Finally someone who truly understands what im saying... you said it much better then i did for sure.. but yes thats exactly it.. i heard of someone doing work on this but i cant find the thread anymore.. it was called "*something* partition Mod" but it was for some other phone... if this could be done it would truly make my day and my phone would be perfect! im willing to help make it happen how ever i can ... unfortunately i dont know anything about coding or kernels but if there is another way i can help jus let me know.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I agree this phone does handle memory in a retarded way. Like for example when you move apps to sd it shows your available internal space but when you switch the app it goes to the actual sd card. So you'll notice that as you're switching them the amount available in internal is not decreasing but when you check your sd space you'll notice its memory decreased. However all my music is on the sd and I have no issue with it playing or creating playlists. Maybe you moved the files to sd and you had created the playlist while it was on internal so now it can't find it.. For the most part you can go into most apps setting and change between which memory you want to store internal or sd.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stormglove:
Yes I can create playlist and play them on the external. The problem is I have Some big playlists on my comp I want to put onto external without having to recreate them. So far I've been unsuccessful. I do need to try media play still though.

This guide works perfect and very easy to understand!!! Just flashed mine to latest firmware using this guide and it was a breeze!

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
You're welcome. Damn I totally underestimated how long it takes to throw all this sh** together... :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Rajesh Rajendran:
Schaggo You are Great

schaggo you are really great.

I was running all over the forum to check how should i upgrade my note from KL3 to LA1 or LA3 through CWm and Mobile Odin Pro.

I screwed my mobile twice with "Logo.*****" error when trying it through mobile odin. Literally i got panicked when my phone came with that "Logo *****error". So I went back to stock KL3 after my two attempts which didnt work.

Later i saw this thread and you know what.. it was crystal clear.... Newbee like me prefer your kind of tutorial to MOD our phones without screwing it.. Even a 10yr kid who knows english can upgrade his/her GN with your guide lines. i.e it is explained in such a way.

Thanks alot for your guidelines..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] qmaula:
Hi, Thanks for the incredible tutorial.

I was just wondering why we should create the firmware folder under the /sdcard/external_sd/

Shouldn't it be working on the /sdcard/ only?. Sometimes I have problems with CWM and the external card, it gets unmounted e.g. while doing backups

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
The reason is quite simple: it's hardcoded this way. The file(s) to be flashed must reside at /sdcard/external_sd/firmware.

I backup onto the internal memory and use the external card mainly for storing some MP3 and stuff I brought over from my previous Android...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] RamenBooko:
Very clear and understandable, thanks for the great guide! I think one of the major issues with a lot of the other guides on here is the language barrier, for me at least. I say that in the most non-offensive way possible.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] cswithxda:
Hello Schaggo,

Sorry for cross posting this, but I just discovered your suggestion in the other thread that noob should really follow your guide here and avoid ruining their devices :)

So I rooted my note and am ready to upgrade it back to Debitel's LA4 firmware, using CWM instead of MobileOdin, and I'm stuck as shown in the attachment, I not only tried LA4, but also Debitel's KK9. It also turned out to be the same result, "can't mount firmwareflash.zip".

Do you have any suggestion to solve this issue?

Thanks a lot!

EDIT: SORRY, forgot to attach the quote of my own from that other thread "[STOCK ROMs]" by THE DOCTOR ;p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] FRlTZ:
Sometimes the ROM - zips is inside the original zip..

run it in Winrar and see what it shows..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] cswithxda:
OK. I just figured this out (in the process of flashing tho)

So here's what I did differently this last time from previous attempts (likely 50+ times in the past couple hours): when copying the firmware .tar.md5 file over to the phone from my computer, I dragged that SS_DL.dll file (provided that you have any) together this time. And the CWM recognized the firmware fine.

I'm just writing this down in case anyone else in the future have this issue. So keep this on record. :D

NOW, HOORAY! Debitel LA4 with Rooted KK9 Kernel!

Love this forum!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
This is interesting, as I deliberatly leave out the .dll file. I did so when I flashed KK9. Also when I flashed LA4. In fact, every time. And I flashed them all since November :p (except LA6, which brings nothing new to the table).

Could it be the file(s) got damaged in the process of transferring it onto the device when you tried the first time round? As the .dll is of absolutely no value to Android.

Edit: but yeah, xda is a godsend... :D

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
Stareing at your screenshot again, it rather seems to me the recovery is/was unable to mount the sdcard and stalled. I also have to say, I never got the countdown your screenshot exposes. I mean its quite a while since I flashed LA4 but I'm quite sure my flashing activities went differently. Could it be that your sdcard is borked? Did you unmount it correctly (eject on pc, then unmount)? Quite hard to pinpoint, now that it worked...

#Tapatalk #Galaxy Note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] cswithxda:
Thanks for your reply!

Yes, I can't think of what I did differently besides copying that additional dll file.

I did try to copy files to SD card many times thinking that it could be the file was corrupted during the transfer. I also see people with this issue suggesting that the issue was due to the corrupted firmware file from download, so I downloaded it again and the issue persisted.

Also, there is no option on my computer to eject either the phone or SD card, so I always have to just unplug the phone, after which I unmount the SD card in the phone, and re-mount it.

Hopefully when next upgrade thru CWM is coming up and I can try it again, but for now, I definitely do not want to mess with it anymore, as I've spent nearly 10 hrs last night to solve this problem :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] minhsu:
May I flash Team Rocket Rom 1.1 (ICS 4.0.3) with CWM ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
This way the card can get dirty. In case you're using Windows: sure it's there, at least since Windows 2000 if not longer. Right click the mounted drive, select "Eject". Wait for the confirmation. Otherwise in the systemtray, select the USB icon and unmount the (two) drives.

I'm downloading LP1 right now. I'll flash it right when it's done and see what's what.

I'm not aware of the format the Team Rocket ROM comes in. But if it's a .zip containing a couple files and a META-INF folder, then no, you can't flash it using this method. In this case it's an "update.zip" and you have to flash it using the "Flash update.zip" methon in CWM App.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] cswithxda:
I really don't have that :(

I don't have USB tray icon when the phone is connected either (i do see it when a flash drive or external hard drive is connected)

Please see the attachment ...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
LOL... you access the device through KIES and MTP (Media Transfer Protocol), you don't mount it as a USB mass storage device. No wonder!

Oh my godness, KIES is such ****!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] cswithxda:
Oops! Noobility here...

How do I change to USB connection? I clicked on "USB connected" tab, but nothing happens, so I could only access MTP mode

Finally, this guide helps me out in the 2nd part of the process to get flash the new firmware.

After all these readings and this guide, I FINALLY MADE IT!!!!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] archheretic:
Hi guys,

My apologies if this has been asked elsewhere, I searched and couldn't find the answer. I have a transformer tf101 and a galaxy s2. The transformer is wifi, and the galaxy s 2 is the gt9100. The phone is unlocked, wasn't bought from a carrier etc. both are running totally stock, no root.

My question is, why is my galaxy s2 still on 2.3.4, when overseas international galaxies are running higher versions? I know it's not because I'm waiting on a carrier. Is it Samsung new Zealand who has to approve the update through kies and they have just been too useless to do it so far? Does my region matter on an international unlocked phone?

I bought my transformer through Amazon. Does this mean that it is a US one and I will receive updates at the same time as the US, or does asus detect I'm in new Zealand and roll out accordingly?

Thanks so much for your help in advance :-)

However all of a sudden today while taking a picture I pressed the button to zoom and the picture was taken. I really liked the zoom being the volume buttons. Did I adjust a setting and not know it or what does anyone have an idea how I did this or how to change it back at least?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
Hi there :)!

I'm currently with Telus on my trusty Nexus S here. My plan is $20 every month and I get unlimited weekend calling (Friday 6:00 pm - Monday 7:00 am) and unlimited SMS and MMS (although my MMS NEVER works).

I am not so happy with Telus at the moment. I don't get signal in my own school for god's sake. It is terrible. How is Koodo's service for any of you guys (I know it has relations to Telus)?

I want to switch to Koodo for a new plan, however I'm worried about the service... Anywho the plan would cost $25-40 and would include: 50 ANYTIME minutes, 0 MB - 1 GB (their date flex rates, most likely I'd pay the full 20 every month though so let's go with $20 counting), and unlimited SMS and MMS (with MMS that actually works).

The money is no problem. I feel like this plan is great for me and really affordable. I'm switching next week. Again my only concern is the service (signal wise for calls, text, and data), and I am MOST intrested in the great data rate that Koodo offers. I am wondering if switching over for the data is worth it that's all :p.

If you could share your personnel opinions and thoughts about Koodo I'd appreciate it. Any thought on the topic would be welcomed actually.

Thanks :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaiuss:
I think you'd have better results posting at howardsforum
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenJeffery:
As far as I know, Koodo uses the Bell and Telus GSM network. If you're having problems with Telus, you may want to look at Fido / Rogers. Their GSM network has been around longer, though of course you would be dealing with Rogers...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmcquake:
Koodo is Telus' discount wireless brand (similar to Fido with Rogers and Solo with Bell) so it will be running on the Telus network. Which means that if you're not getting good reception on Telus, you won't get good reception on Koodo, since both carriers are running off the same cell towers.

I agree with BenJeffery's post above. You are probably better off to look into the coverage that Rogers and Fido offer, if you want to switch carriers.

Hope this helps!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
I'll try that too, thanks.

It's not so much the network. I am more interested in affordable data. And haha I know what you mean :p

Yup. Koodo is in fact Telus (essentially). I already knew that :p lol. Again (I may not have made it clear so sorry) I am not so concerned with the service. As long as it is similar to Telus, maybe even better (which I'm assuming it will be considering the associations with Telus). I am more concerned in the data rates. Koodo offers the best one that I know of. Fido and the "Big Three" have terrible rates

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Milton515:
Is there any way to remove or change the shut down animation? Im currently running Weapons 3.0 RC1 with the ICS theme
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
I believe under settings under Tweaks you can disable both the screen on and off animation.

Oh whoops you meant shutdown animation, my bad. Is anything listed under system/media?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wewoapsiak:
If it's anything like the original LG rom, the shutdown animation is controlled by an apk. Try looking for and removing that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Milton515:
Naw, there isn't anything under system/media
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kwes1020:
As wewo said, the shutdown animation on the g2x is controlled by poweroff.apk it works pretty much the same as a boot animation but is controlled by a XML instead of a txt file. You might be able to delete the apk but idk what will happen if you do.

You could also pull the image folder out with 7zip and make them all black. I have a power off.apk made from weapons boot animation in my weapon new clip mod. Feel free to pull it and use it if you want.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Milton515:
Where can I find just the power off.apk you made?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kwes1020:
Download the rom and pull it from system/app
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
You can disable it in the build.prop as well I believe. something like lg.poweroff=true changed to false.. but I'm going by memory here.

LG-P999 Edit PowerOff.apk

First of all, excuse me in advance for my english, I didn’t my best !!

I have the same problem. I have a LG-P999 (optimus G2X) with Videotron.

I easely change my bootanimation, but for the Poweroff animation, I didn’t find the way to change the animation after 3 days of recherche on the web….

If I desinstall the app with ‘’SystemApp remover’’ and I take the original APK file in ‘’/system/app/PowerOff.apk’’ the installation work well and when I closer the phone all is ok and the logo of videotron appear.

So I tried the tricks I saw on the web :

1 -

Take the original ‘’PowerOff.apk’’ file, open it with ‘’winzip’’.Replace the .png file by other one in same format. Deleter the file ‘’/system/app/PowerOff.apk’’ and replace it by the modified one. Result, when I close the phone, the phone close and restart with no image. If I try to install the file, the installation doesn’t work.

2 -

Take the original ‘’PowerOff.apk’’ file, open it with ‘’apkmanager’’. In the folder ‘’PowerOff.apk’’, I replace the .png file by other one in same format. After I Zip the modified folder ‘’PowerOff.apk’’ with ‘’apkmanager’’ and select system file. Deleter the file ‘’/system/app/PowerOff.apk’’ and replace it by the modified one. Result, when I close the phone, the phone close and restart with no image. If I try to install the file, the installation doesn’t work.

3 -

If I take ‘’apkmanager’’ I extract the APK for code file (option 9) and after ZIP it (option 11) for system file, they ask me to select the file in the original apk file for the files who are not modified. If I select that the program import anything from the original file (with the logo of videotron). If I try to install the file, the installation works, but it’s a copy of the original…. If I didn’t choose the option the copy from the original file, I have the same problem of point no.2.

4 -

If I dont desinstall the original ‘’PowerOff.apk’’ file but I remove it from the folder file ‘’/system/app/’’, the shutdown of the cell phone work normally with the logo of videotron…

So my question is

, do they have anybody here who can read the code of the original file and say me if when I install it, it extract the ‘’.png’’ file in an other file in the cell phone ?? (Because of the point no.4)

Can you say me why

I create a new apk file with ‘’apkmanager’’ I cannot install it on the phone, it give me an error and it only write ‘’the app have been not installed’’ or simething like that… Maybe, if I modify the file, the phone don’t recognize the news signature on it or something like that ???

Here is the link of the original file and the modified file :
