[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
This REALLY sounds like you either have a .nomedia file floating around, or need to format your internal memory (aka USB Storage), as it may have corrupt memory sectors. I'd copy everything from internal memory (/sdcard), format your USB storage, copy it back. If it's still doing this, scour your files for a .nomedia file more carefully.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexagono:
Thanks.

I search for .nomedia, and found some, but that didn't solved the problem.

So I copied everything and formates. This time I decided to try something else, and I putted the musics on /external_sd, which worked.

So that kinda solves my problem. The only thing is that I want the music on my SD, not on the internal (I putted two songs. One in external_sd and another on the I: drive (Which is my SD drive). Only the one on external_sd showed up).

But thanks anyway. At least I'm able to listen to music now.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Seems you're confused.

/sdcard/external_sd is the sd card you plug in.

/sdcard is the phone's "internal" memory. It is what is left of the included 16gb of the phone memory after System memory, App space, and the OS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexagono:
But the files I put on /external_sd doesn't show up at the I: drive.

And also, I take my words back. With one song it recognized. but with the whole library not.

EDIT: More test, more strange.

So I've putted 3 songs. One I put in I:/Music and one I put in H:/external_sd/Music, and one on both.

The song I've putted on both get recognized, it plays, and show the album art. The one in external_sd, virtually exact like the one I but in both (the only notable difference is that the bit rate of this one is 3 less than to one on both) is recognized, but it don't play (MIUI says that the file type is not supported, and the file type is the same as the one i put in both) and doesn't show the album art. The one I've putted only on I:/Music, does not show up.

EDIT 2: This is creepy.

So now I put the song that wasn't working in I:/Music and it magically works. And the one I've putted only on I:/Music, still does not show up.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
The letter "I:" means nothing to me; on my current computer, my phone maps to "E:" and "G:". ("F:" is already taken by a network drive)

/sdcard and /sdcard/external_sd both map to drive letters. Is "I:" the first one, or second one mapped when you plug your phone in and turn on USB storage mode?

If it's the first one, then "I:" will be /sdcard. If it's the second one, then "I:" will be /sdcard/external_sd.

So if your drives map to "I:" and "J:", then "I:" will be /sdcard. But if they map to "H:" and "I:", then "I:" will be /sdcard/external_sd.

Make sense?

EDIT: I see what you're doing. You're putting stuff in H:/external_sd. Don't do that. I: is your external_sd
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexagono:
That is correct. H: is internal, and I: is SD card.

But as you can see, the music apparently only works if the file is both on the H:/external_sd/Music folder AND the I:/Music folder.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
No offense, but I can't see. This is happening on your phone. I have 8 gb of mp3 files on my external sd card, and they're only in one place. And I happily listen to them just fine, with album art and everything. So I'm not quite sure what is happening on your phone.

EDIT: for example; E: for me is internal memory, and G: is the external sd card.

E:/external_sd is COMPLETELY BLANK for me. It says there is nothing in there.

G:/music has all my mp3s.

So I'm not sure what is going on with your phone, but this is how it should work.

For you, H:/external_sd is intended to be a virtual mapping. You shouldn't be dropping files in there. Any files you want on the external sd card should be going into I:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexagono:
Yeah. Thanks anyway.

And I expected that it should be a virtual mapping. When I use Super Manager (Since Root Explorer crashes) to go trough the folders, when I go to external_sd it goes to the external SD and I can see the files there. It makes absolutely no sense that the music players aren't seeing the files. :(

EDIT:

So I downloaded PowerAmp, and it recognizes the music. The problem is with MIUI Player, and Winamp.

EDIT 2:

So I woke up this morning, after putting the rest of the music, and re-scanned with Power Amp. Them, everything worked. -.-

There's a problem with the ID tag (Some music from the same albums are showing as a different album) and the album art is really low quality. But I can listen to music now!

Thanks to ctomgee and JJEgan.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ZaIINN:
Confirming that the semi-decent mobile MMO, Order & Chaos, works fantastically on the Samsung Galaxy Player 5-inch! The screen size is fantastic for controls, far easier than playing the game on the iPhone's very small 3.5inch screen.

You probably won't be able to legally obtain the apk since it DOES NOT show up in the market regardless of what I've tried to do (for the SGP5). So you may have to look around to find a working one elsewhere, I just google'd for version 1.0.8.

PLEASE NOTE: The graphics will look awful unless you have Chainfire3d installed and enable 4xMSAA for it. It literally looks night and day. With the AA, it looks great!

Enjoy!

I believe it's free to play for 3 months and there is a bonus free month for people who are already subscribed (or played for free for the first 3 months). I'm not really a fan of games like that, but its worth checking out just to see how well they incorporate a PC-esque MMO into a mobile environment.

Thanks dude! But after flashing back .42 kernel and rooting.. can you update to .62 kernel and keep the root? Thanks in advance! :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Pandemic:
No problem and yes ofcourse mate, read the noob guide what i made carrefully there stand the rom with 62 firmware that have root, just read the thread mate and you shall see;)

Edit: do you have neo or neo v ? I dont know if it works for Neo

Download 0.62 ftf file.Move it to firmware folder in Flash tool.Flash button,flashmode.Select the 0.62 fw.Untick wipe user data,wipe cache.Tick Exclude system,exclude baseband.And flashing will only flash kernel I guess ;)

But 0.62 fw with 0.283 kernel is the best battery saver out there ;)

Thank you for the info!

I am on .42 too and will try the flashtool update method.
[Galaxy Tab General] kuletako327:
I found out a solution for the problem. (Noob Proof)

1. Download and install Script Manager by devworm 504KB from Market.

2. Run Script Manager, press the options soft button, then press console, Press Run shell.

a cmdprmpt-ish window will appear.

NOW, PRESS THE "ENTER KEY" PER LINE!

you will know if you're there if you see a grey block as your cursor in the console window. Now for the commands.

su"ENTER KEY"

cd /"ENTER KEY"

umount /cache"ENTER KEY"

mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs rootfs /"ENTER KEY"

rmdir /cache"ENTER KEY"

mkdir /sdcard/cache"ENTER KEY"

ln -s /sdcard/cache /cache"ENTER KEY"

Please do mind that it is case sensitive and space sensitive. I got fooled by the space sensitive too.

for those with weak eyes I shall now do it again but now spaces are represented with "_"s.. ok?

su"ENTER KEY"

cd_/"ENTER KEY"

umount_/cache"ENTER KEY"

mount_-o_rw,remount_-t_rootfs_rootfs_/"ENTER KEY" (The o here is the letter o not number 0 ok ? :D)

rmdir_/cache"ENTER KEY"

mkdir_/sdcard/cache"ENTER KEY"

ln_-s_/sdcard/cache_/cache"ENTER KEY" (l here is L as in Little not capital I ok :D)

Now say thanks by thanking me.

ALTHOUGH the edit will disappear when you reboot your device. it is not really a permanent fix but rather a temporary fix.

I only download large apps from time to time so I don't necessarily need to make it permanent. :D

Congratulations you are unable to download apps from the market. Nahh just kidding.

You can download apps larger than 25mb. :D not kidding.

Kudos to the Dude whom I discovered this. Sorry I forgot where I got this. I just saved it in my notes. :D
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
I believe Market 3.4.4 is supposed to have fixed that.
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
I'm running Market 3.4.4, most people are I guess, it's an automatic update. I've just downloaded AppSizeTest 50 MB from the Market, which is a 50 MB app. It doesn't do a thing, but for me it installed without a hitch. To me it looks like this solves the space issue.

World of Goo is about this size, and I couldn't install that with the earlier Market (I think it was 3.3.11). I could try again, but I've already purchased it from the makers. Does anybody know a big free app?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikilas:
Hi,

I'm in Finland for 5 months and it seems that it is 'extremely' cold out here. Normally it should be -15°C while it's getting down to -30°C! I was walking outside and was using the camera & gps to take some nice pictures and see how far I was from my destination. Everything worked just fine, only the touch-screen started to fail when I had the device out of my pocket for too long. It got random 'touches' everywhere on the screen. I'm guessing that it's just too cold out there, but I couldn't find the 'thermal spec' (how long will the defy work just fine).

Does anyone know this? Couldn't find it online (Only that you shouldn't charge your battery below 0) :D
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devil1406:
I've lost my phone few days ago...

I've found it yesterday in the snow on backyard. He lay there for almost 2 days while the temperatures was about -10°C to -18°C. When I found it everything was fine... Except the battery :) It was only 3% :P

Maybe -30°C is just too cold :D
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miscz:
I can confirm that screen goes unreponsive at temperatures below -15 celsius. Then again so do my fingers :D

I digged into manual and it suggests not to use it below 0 degrees C. Good luck with that.

iam not sure about thermal spec but it is not advisable to use any electronic gadget in negative temperatures for long time...

But when it gets exposed to very low temperatures touchscreen feels unresponsive (found it from some open discussion forums for other mobiles) ..

But Defy is Life Proof !! so play around with it as u like !! :p:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] novinsab:
Hi all,

I have found a way to remove the main Windows Live account associated with the phone and insert another one without having to Hard-Reset the device.

Removing the main WL account might be indicated in the following

conditions

:

Improper Region Selected with Your Account

Switching between 2 Windows Live accounts

Problem with Contact Sync through Windows Live

Problem with Contacts stored locally on phone

Requirement:

Dev-Unlocked Windows Phone

WP7 Root Tools

Procedure:

Goto WP7 Root Tools or any other file explorer on the device

Navigate to \Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Stores\DeviceStore\

Rename store.vol to store.vol.txt (or anything else) - can be used as a backup

Restart the phone

WP might indicate that there was a problem with updating and all your messages, contacts and accounts data have been removed.

Now you can manually add them again.

Please note that, all your stored emails, messages, locally stored contacts and other data associated with your setup accounts will be erased from the device (can backup by restoring store.vol.txt to store.vol). Make sure you sync your contacts before proceeding with this.

[HTC Amaze 4G] gypsy214:
this is what tmonews says

There seems to be quite a bit of confusion about this --- the End Of Life post regarding the HTC Amaze 4G, Sensation 4G, LG myTouch etc has absolutely zero bearing on continued support and updates for these phones. HTC has promised Ice Cream Sandwich for both models and I cannot envision this changing that. We've already seen an Amaze 4G running ICS at Google's last Music event. Hope that helps to clear up any confusion and hopefully we'll hear more from HTC soon.

what do you guys think

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] retskrad:
Hello everyone.

Does anyone know a way to fix the awful sound quality on the Galaxy Nexus?

I already tried Volume+ but it didn't change much.

I used the voodoo kernel on the Original Galaxy S and the sound quality was a thousand times better. Does something similar exist on the Galaxy Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Use something better than 2.99 earbuds ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] retskrad:
I have very good headphones, the sound quality on the original galaxy S was much better than the sound I now get from galaxy nexus...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chrono_Tata:
The native sound signature coming out from the Galaxy Nexus is pretty bad in my opinion too. It's way too bright. I would play with the equalizer a bit to get a more balanced sound. Thankfully I don't use my phone as my primary music player.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lafrad:
Too bright? If anything it sounds like someone wrapped my earphones in paper towel before strapping them to my head... everything above ~12khz sounds muted.

THANK GOD it doesn't sound as crappy as the Rezound I used to have. Bzzz bzzz BOOOM bzz bzzzzzz bzzz bzzz.

I'm eagerly awaiting the Voodoo sound improvements... follow supercurio on twitter for any updates... https://twitter.com/#!/supercurio he commented that he was impressed with the hardware on the GNex, just needs to get something worked up for it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
my galaxy nexus audio quality is superb, prob the best of any phone ive had. If you mean rhe volume is low, install equalizer and raise each frequency and the vokume easily doubles.

I love listening to music on this phone because of the good audio. Also some people use volume+, i like equalizer better, but both tie into the system audio api to raise volume.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j.go:
Are you using the stock headset? Because that's how the stock headset sounds like... muddled. The earphones that comes with the SGS seems to be of a better audio quality if I recall correctly. However, with a decent pair of earphones (I use ER6i), sound is excellent. At least in the same level of SGS + voodoo, possibly better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biffsmash:
Get some sennheiser in ear headphones and it's a whole different world. I'd never ever use anything else any more. Bass is absolutely amazing, stronger bass than any over ear headphones i've used, and treble is great too.

I used to have SGS2 and tune in radio was absolutely awful, on NEXUS its super loud and with the right stations, great quality.

Nexus is much louder and better quality for sound than SGS 2.

I would recommend using power amp rather than built in music player though, as the built in music player is pants!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] synaesthetic:
Double blind ABX it and tell me it sounds worse. Lots of people are more than willing to ***** and moan about how things sound only as long as they can see them, but once it's under the dropcloth, they can't seem to tell which is which...

The DAC in the GN is fine, there's nothing wrong with it. Comparing it to broken HTC devices with random pointless crap in the signal path is a little unfair.
[General Questions and Answers] moshe22:
HTC Sensation users, what will your next device be after Sensation?

For me it will probably be a Samsung phone possibly the Galaxy S3 or iPhone 5, unless HTC puts out a solid, well build and thought device with consistent quality materials across their devices.

I did realized that HTC Said that they'll cut down in the amount if phones they put out since they realized they were not focusing on one phone and therefore why so many flaws in their last models.

Example: two screen manufacturers.

What will be your next device?

Quad core isn't needed. I think a strong dual core (think at least 1.5Ghz) with a >3000mAH battery and a screen between the sensation and note with proper resolution (~720).

You're not the only one. I think they do look stunning but the colours are too rich IMO. This is one reason why I chose the Sensation over the GS2.

On a related note, I think the Galaxy Nexus is quite overrated. Apart from having a 720p screen and being a Google Experience device (and therefore having ICS), there isn't that much else that's amazing about it. Still a great phone but not worth the price (ATM).

Got Nexus (Prime) and have Sensation since day one. Honestly... I am not buying any other phone for next 2 years. When got the Sensation didn't see a big difference and should stick with XL... Anyhow, I don't think there could be added more "features" (unless you playing games).

As for the Nexus... Many people saying its crap, underpowered atc... IMO these people NEVER had Nexus except in their dreams. The Nexus performs superb.

So my answer is : no other phone for 2 years as my current phones are the very best...
