[Kindle Fire General] kingrafa135:
:eek: Ok, so i wanted to install Cynogen Mod 7 on my perfect kindle fire. So i followed the directions on http://liliputing.com/2011/12/how-to-install-cyanogenmod-7-on-the-amazon-kindle-fire.html. Everything was going fine, i downloaded and opened The Kindle Fire Utility and used the permanent root option. It rooted and everything went fine. Then i went to the TWRP Recovery, it installed and then went into fastboot. It took a little while for me to realize that it wasn't going anywhere. I started following other guides to unbrick my kindle fire but all my efforts was in vain. I got desperate and uninstalled the drivers, the kfu and windows 32 bit computer won't recognize my kindle and i just want this horrible nightmare to end. Can someone please help me here.
[Kindle Fire General] Kapurnicus:
You are currently being assisted in another thread. After an attitude you posted another. The other thread was not yours, so understandable, but please be more patient.

Reinstall the drivers using the .bat file. Try to restart the kindle again. 90% of the time these are driver issues. If that does not work, try the fastboot commands in the other thread and restarting the kindle again. The Cd "your directory" is typed in then press enter. Each line is a new command so hit enter between each.

Can anyone tell me where is the location of the files of apps move to SD card?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nasapunk88:
in a hidden folder called ".android_secure"

You can use ES Explorer (or Root Explorer), and grant it SU, then you can see the hidden stuff.

Okay, it seems that i have not been lucky lately. Or not reading as much as i should. I was trying to Update a RAZR today and was using the fastboot flashing tool i found around this forum. To my surprise once i started the cmd command, some files were flashed and some fail. What happens next? Phone is bricked!!! I can get into fastboot but it says cant program and if i try to flash via RSD it will fail. Since some siles were flashed and some werent i dont know what to do. If someone knows how to unbrick this i will appreciate.....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] enelyam:
Just in case, the tool i was using when it bricked was xt910 utility tool.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nthon9:
Okay, this may be an issue with just ME & my Atrix, or it may be every single Atrix on the planet.. I don't know - which is why I'm creating this thread.

When I "wipe data/factory reset" in CWM (something I do quite often, as I'm a flash addict) it is PAINFULLY slow.

Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit, but it takes at least 30 seconds

(I haven't thought to time it until I started typing this sentence lol - maybe next time) - I thought that this was just how long such an operation took (despite the fact that a fastboot -w is done in just a few seconds)

UNTIL I rooted and flashed a custom ROM to my mother's Samsung Galaxy S a couple of hours ago - which finished the operation in fastboot-esque speed.

So.. Firstly - is this something everybody has to put up with?

If not - what do you think caused this, and what could be done to speed things up a bit?

I've always hated Samsung phones, but after rooting/flashing/setting up that SGS earlier, my Atrix is suddenly looking less attractive.. :(

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] E4GT-R:
Hey guys.

Was wondering if there is a way to control or mainly write out and send texts on my E4GT through my computer. Like have the phone show up in a screen on my computer and use my computer keyboard to type out the text and send. It just makes it easier.

EDIT: Forgot to include that I'd prefer something that doesn't require root.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

While I've haven't used it since my Optimus S, Android Screencast will display your devices screen on your pc and, if you're rooted, will allow keyboard and mouse control for your texting. Just make sure you have all of the prerequisites listed on the home page. And again, I haven't used it with my E4GT, so I can't promise it works for sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beezar:
If just for texts, why not just logon to sprint.com on your computer and send a text that way?

You can do this with Samsung Kies Wireless.

Which one do you prefer. Right now I have a Dropbox pro account that I dropped but still has membership, and I have a recurring sugar sync account which I love. But I was just wondering which do you prefer?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
I personally use dropbox, mainly because it was the first one I tried and was free, have never heard of or used sugarsync. I stand by the motto of don't fix what isn't broken and having 7gb on my dropbox I don't plan on going anywhere soon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xIC-MACIx:
+1

Dropbox for me, I only have 5GB, but that's pretty much all I need.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] P90:
That's good, but I can't get referrals for the love of it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Dropbox, but not because it's better than SugarSync. I have a ton of friends that use dropbox and with the recent 5 gigs they gave away I'm at 17 gigs of space.

That being said, I've heard great things about SugarSync so if you don't plan on sharing anything/folders with friends (Dropbox is, for the most part, the universal standard) I might give that a try too.

It may sound like something you absolutely hate doing, but spam the hell out of your friends and family. It won't cause them any harm and you'll GREATLY appreciate the extra storage space. It took me a long time to come to terms with it, but boy was it a great decision. I sent out an email explaining that I was helping friends coordinate a programming project and that by them signing up it helped us out a lot with school. Worked like a charm (though it was all true. lol).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clockwork58:
What? no one signed up for Asus Web Storage when they got their prime?

I still use dropbox, but signed up for a Asus account thru my Prime and they give you 8 GB of storage instead of the 2 GB that anyone else gets.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] opentoe:
Why not just use Tonido and use your own computer and as much space as you want? By using Tonido I don't have to worry about space anymore.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I use Dropbox and Dropsync to keep important docs local and in sync. That way I don't rely on wifi... Works great for me. Go check out their blog to see if they still have the recent beta going where each 500MB in photos and video you sync automatically gives an equal amount of storage up to 5GB.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
DB for sure. Google the 2.0.9 apk and it now has unlimited uploaded & there is a way yo get 500gb free instant & then 4.5gb free for uploading during the beta.

Plus the new version can sync photos & bids instantly when taken.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] P90:
Ya I'm doing it, but I only received the initial 500mb then after upload automatically I got nothing. What the 2.09 APk I don't understand.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
With 2.0.9 every 500mb you upload with their new upload feature will give you 500mb up to 5gb. Many of us all got the 5gb as I just made 500mb vids & uploaded them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] P90:
Yes I just did it too. It seems the google Adwords is a great way to do this too huh?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slugbug2010:
I've used Dropbox for a while and will continue to - I have several shared folders set up that are very useful. I did sign up for the 8gb from Asus and the 50gb promotion from Box. Those along with misc cloud storage that came with my laptop and printer (he'll, not to mention Google Docs and Music)...... I'm pretty well set :D I use them for different things and so easy I've not used at all yet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kwazytazz:
just use vmware and set some virtual machines up, u'll get 16gb in no time(had an .edu email so it gave me double), so far i got 23.88gb from dropbox.

wouldve been more if i didnt miss that 1gb scavenger hunt thing
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jhoward15:
Sugarsync for me

I use Sugarsync and it works well. The main reason I picked it over Dropbox was the ability to select multiple separate directories to sync (vs just one Dropbox directory). You also can choose which directories to sync between which PCs (not all dirs have to be synced between all PCs). Very handy. However, Sugarsync has two large holes (that are supposed to be filled this year) - you can't sync a directory on a USB drive, and you have to sync with the cloud (vs getting data directly from a local PC).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stierney:
Agree on Dropbox, tried them both and its better on android.

Dropsync is very nice for tablets/phones too. got on my prime and sgs2 for convenient sync with no hassles

You should check out a NAS Server. Set up your own cloud and stream your content wherever you are!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrtrumpet:
I have used SugarSync for about 18 months. I am liking how they are agressively updating it and appear to be trying to gain traction in a very competitive market by improving the product. It works well for me on my TFP 201. I have the 100 gig storage plan.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rtetrault:
Dropbox

Currently using Dropbox and loving it. I have the 50Gb account that is up to 54.5 with referrals, beta etc. This may change though when Google deploys Drive.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mattya25:
I've used both, and Sugarsync wins just for the ability to sync multiple independent folders. I know there are some workarounds in DB, but I don't want workarounds. I like the ability to just click on a folder and share it immediately, and still keep it where I want it. It's pretty easy to get above the given 5Gb too, with a little legwork. I got up to 6.5Gb in 15 minutes by jumping through their hoops. Also, the interface is pretty easy to work with. I had formerly used Windows Live Mesh, which was quick to sync, and can work peer to peer (still use it on my LAN because it's so quick, and no file limits via P2P). Unfortunately there are few mobile clients for Mesh. So Sugarsync wins for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrCapcom:
Neither I use Box.net 50GB for free and Minus i think u get 2gb per person sign up I have like 16gb there.

Having both pogoplug and dropbox I have to say that I am partial to pogo plug because of the capacity but the dropbox app seems more polished.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] The Boojum:
@jhoward15...

Good to hear. I opted for SugarSync mainly for its flexibility, but the issues you mention are real downsides. Fixing them should give SS an edge over Dropbox.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] P90:
Well they both are good:) hehe. I like Dropbox now! Sugar sync is still good tho..

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jonboyuk:
Dropbox Here's the link to the APK

I think the confusion was because you put 500gb in your first post, not mb :D

I found a quick way to cheat your way to 5gb with the 2.09 apk - just take a large 1080p hdmi video (5gb worth) and let it start uploading. Pretty quickly they will give you the full 5gb - stop the upload and deete teh file. Worked for me!

Also if you're a student, register your edu/ac.uk address and referrals are 1gb each! I pay for 50gb, but I'm on 76Gb (ie 26gb free and I still have 16gb of referrals to go)!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] P90:
Thanks for adding that link guys. I recently do the google Adwords to get the extra 16gb of space! Sweet! And now I'm making another account for 15gb hehe:)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] frabjous:
I've tried quite a few different storage providers and found dropbox to offer a much greater level of convenience, especially when it comes to synching multiple devices. Thanks to this thread I'm off to try sugarsync! Box.net offers a lot more space for free but I find it too clunky. I've been starting to look into apps that can manage multiple sites at once - the SanDisk memory manager seems to do ok.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
If I didn't neednLinux support I would consider switching from Dropbox, and would for stable FreeBSD support!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] P90:
Ya switching from sugar sync was hard. I like to be very organized and sugar sync really appealed to that, but with the Dropbox upload rates it's unbeatable. And that it's just so broad with devices and everything. Think about when google drive comes out though. The question soon might be gdrive or dropbox soon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xerip:
What I really like about SugarSync is the ability to sync any folder you want. Dropbox kinda have this with their "Sync with dropbox" application, but it's not the same (this program actually moves all the files to the dropbox folder.

Also, what is great with SugarSync is the ability to download all the files in a zip without actually having synced the zip file (Dropbox doesn't have this). With SugarSync, if you have a folder with only pictures and share the link with others, they will be able to download a zip of all the files. I wish they have that for videos too, but not yet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] litetaker:
I love Dropbox. I have the ability to max out my free account at 23.25 GB (16 GB via referrals since I am a student, each referral is worth 500 MB and 5 GB thanks to that beta testing of the camera upload...) And it works fine. The only real upside of Sugarsync is syncing any folder, but I really don't need that. Plus syncing just a dropbox folder sort of makes it organized! Just my opinion.

I am happy with Dropbox and it was the originator of this idea, and I am gonna stick with them! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Selutha:
I have had dropbox for a long time and use it daily, my only 2 caveats is that I wish I could share as a read only object and like most wish I could sync entire folders to my mobile devices.

Sugarsync was nice but I have had some speed/connection issues when dropbox just worked perfectly. I hear that is suppost to be fixed, but I know dropbox and most people I need to share with are on dropbox.

Also have a 50G box account, but it keeps sticking me with a maximum upload size.

Sense they are free get both and try them, use the one that works.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
+1 Dropbox

Sharing specific folders makes files easy to handle between multiple users.

In addition, a lot of my friends and relatives use it making it even more convenient.
