If I use anything other then CWM 5.0.2.6, I can not mount my SD card. This happened right after I S-OFF. I even tried the new 4EXT (paid 3 bucks) and I still can not mount the SD Card. But the internal SD card gets mounted automatically even when it says its not mounted.

How can I fix this?

I already SuperCID and I S-OFF as well. I was runing ICS 4.0.3 Leak but I just recently installed Revolution 4.0.3 rom.

Use recovery to reformat your sd card, then it should be recognized again.
[HTC Amaze 4G] HuskyHamburger:
I had the same issue, plug in your sd card into your computer, format it with the default settings, and then it will work fine, if you want an extra precaution, format it again in your recovery after you followed these steps
[HTC Amaze 4G] mznatnat:
Make sure you format your SD card in FAT32 .... ON your computer if possible....

I have been having SD card troubles myself.

If everything ppl are telling you on here doesn't work, try buying a 2GB card and trying it out.
[HTC Amaze 4G] HuskyHamburger:
and leave it on quick format too
[HTC Amaze 4G] mznatnat:
Quick format??? Why??? Quick format doesn't clean your SD card the way its suppose to....
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
yeah but regular format takes too damn long.... lol :p

but your right. it doesnt do it 100% correctly even though you get the same results

My gnex has a broken screen and is a GSM that I'm using on t mo. What I want to know is if I buy a Verizon version with a bad esn would the screen on the cdma version work on the GSM one.

Also a bonus question would I be able to put the 32 gb memory in the GSM version.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Possibly... but the phones are definitely

not

built the exact same (just take the battery cover off and you'll see). So I'd need someone with more technical knowledge of the differences to chime in.

Depending on how much you're paying for that you might be better off selling yours for parts and buying a new one since they're only $399 now.

Definitely no.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lazaro17:
They definitely have some differences in parts. When I had an issue with one of my GSM versions I remember looking up tear downs for both and they were a lot more differences that I originally thought. I'd be very cautious attempting to put a part from the cdma variant into GSM until you're 100% sure it'll work. Hopefully someone here can confirm.

[LG Optimus Black] sheherezade:
Has anyone had issues with the sound quality and screen on their Optimus Black?

When I answer a call I can't hear anything until the call suddenly connects and by then the other person is usually in the middle of a sentence.

I've also been having issues with the screen, although that might be normal for this phone. When I wake up the screen to see the clock it is usually anywhere between 5 to 15 minutes slow before it suddenly flickers and shows the correct time. The screen itself appears sluggish and I often have to try several times before it reacts. The phone is 9 months old, it's not rooted and everything is stock.

Has anyone had similar issues?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hanny:
Why this thread

I am with AOKPb34, franco r143, and NO USB fast charge nor undervolting.

Recently, I have downloaded Dungeon Hunter 3 (1.0.8 latest), ran on my phone, downloaded the game data, continue, but! then I couldnt go pass the gameloft icon and the game went back out to the homescreen. I was sad, and uninstalled it just then. More recently, I have also installed Asphalt 6: Adrenaline HD (1.3.3 latest) too, and however, after all the successful game data downloads, and after license check, it crashed!!

This time, I am not believing that my phone can not hold such huge games, therefore I dug into the issue and went address what the root problem of these crashes is.

The problem

And there comes my conclusion of such an issue - The "downloaded game data" (should be existing on the /sdcard/Android/data/com.xxxxxxxxxx/ if we are on a phone with UMS but not MTP) is NOT at the right place BEFORE you reboot. Where is it stored? No one knows. And let me demonstrate and explain why, below.

The solution (temporary)

Simply, do not be sad when you face the game crash, and reboot the device. Now everything works because the files are at the right place now! (sadly, DH3 was not working still, for me, but, with the same procedure below, asphalt 6 WORKED!)

Demonstration and Explanation (i know its abit annoying but PLEASE READ!!!)

1. First, I downloaded the game from market

2. I checked my phone storage with app "disk usage", my "system data" (probably /data/data) is 220mb

3. Opened the app and download the required data

4. Open the app, after this black screen, it crashed and went back to app drawer!

5. I went back to disk usage, My /data/data is 1283mb??! Note that this is now in the "non rooted" mode of disk usage

6. Surely it is not in /gameloft/games because (i guess) newer ones dont go there anymore but /Android/data

7. However when checking with ASTRO (therefore non-root), there is nothing!

8. Double check with OI File Manager (therefore non-root), still nothing either

9. The surprise is that, in ROOTEXPLORER, for the SAME directory, now there are all those downloaded game files, which is about 1GB

10. Now when going back to disk usage with ROOT mode, those "System data" now moved to "Media" (/sdcard) without me doing anything at all

11. Then I went to ROOTEXPLORER and check /data/data/[the folder of dungeon hunter 3], and it shows 22mb only but not the 1GB as shown in non-rooted explorers

12. After all these, I made a reboot.

13. The non-root mode of disk usage, it went from 1283mb back to a normal value of 221mb, and there the folder goes

14. Finally, they are also shown up in ASTRO, and confirmed the right size of the game data folder.

15. Although, after these, my DH3 was STILL CRASHING, but WITH THE SAME METHOD, my Asphalt 6 HD turned from crashing to working.​

My Question

Although, even if not focusing on whether the game is crashing or not, does anyone know why the storage phenomenon existed, if you have knowledge on such thing? I mean, the "data shift"!

Seriously, thank you for your time reading and please kindly post a reply if you would like to discuss!

Honestly, Miasmic.

Hi all,

Just got my htc ones yesterday, making a switch from the iPhone and and love it so far...

The only thing I am having trouble with so far is finding a video player that uses HW decoding andallowsme to stream from my network. Dice player looked like it was the thing but it stutters on the HW player (software player is ok)

Any ideas or app suggestions welcome..

Thanks,

[Acer Iconia A500] zardoz99:
The number of posts that I am seeing with "I modified my A500 and now the ICS update won't apply or my tablet won't boot" seem to be increasing.

How reasonable is it to expect that Acer should make assumptions about exactly what is on the tablet before running the OTA installation?

Surely, if you change any of the checksums on either the internal file systems or the boot loaders, then you are asking for the scripts to fail and for something to break...

Can you ever return a tablet that has been modified back to EXACTLY a factory default state?

Caveat Emptor...
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Because there are a lot of incredibly stupid people out there, that's why.
[Acer Iconia A500] sakurasyaoran:
Yep you are so right!
[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
Because 95% of people that, just for example, "root", don't know what they're doing. All they know is that it allows them to uninstall 'bloat', install tools they wouldn't normally be able to run without it, replace files and tamper with code and file content as advised by their peers to get this and that working 'better'. They follow directions to the T, use one click tools or get entire modified OSs and proceed to tinker and tamper with software they don't really understand. When the poop hits the fan, somehow the blame shifts off them completely to Acer and just about anyone else.
[Acer Iconia A500] chaosking121:
I agree with you on most of that, but you gotta remember that we all started somewhere and the best way to learn is by getting right into it and tinkering, I do agree that most people don't understand what they're getting into and simply refuse to learn when someone tries to correct them.
[Acer Iconia A500] nasimdejai:
But you have to remember some of us did not even root our tabs let alone flash custom roms and yet can't get the update at all. So, what did we do wrong?
[Acer Iconia A500] zardoz99:
Probably nothing. The lack of updates may be down to Acer setting which groups of serial numbers are next in line.
[Acer Iconia A500] nasimdejai:
I sure hope so cos I'm getting frustrated each day the update refuses to arrive. To be honest, I think I'm done with Android tablets. Android tablets are meant for mods/hackers. OSs/tablets by Apple,RIM and Microsoft are meant for guys like me who don't want to tweak or install ROMs. When updates are released by these guys,owners of their devices definitely get them without all these hassles.

My next OS will be Windows 8. That OS I'm very familiar with
[Acer Iconia A500] kiwirj:
It was explained on Acer ANZ facebook page last year, cannot recall when, it was either with the release of 3.1 or 3.2, that the updates are done by the batch numbers set by google, not acer. the updates are hosted on futuredial so when it gets hammered it's not even acer servers to which i doubt they have any.
[Acer Iconia A500] chaosking121:
It seemes Acer has updated their Acer Update Enhancement app in the Google Play Store. It's supposed to help those who still haven't got the ICS update. Try it out and see if that helps?
[Acer Iconia A500] skipped:
You HAVE to update that app to get the OTA update.
[Acer Iconia A500] nasimdejai:
Could you confirm the date the Enhancement app got updated? Cos mine seem to be up to date right now. And the date for the app in Google store says March 19th Thanks

Hi all,

I'm looking forward to get my Tab 7.7 16Gt 3G/Wi-Fi and I like to get some app recommendations, free or non-free.

It will be mostly used while travelling so apps should work without Internet connection and in flight mode.

So far my list has:

- Kindle for Android

- Astro File Manager

- Sygic GPS or NAVIGON for Android

I want to:

- View photos

- Watch movies

- View PDF documents

- View/edit Word 2010 documents

- Play some games

As noted they have to be usable in flight mode.

Other must have apps ?

TIA
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Manipur:
Some MUST HAVE apps for the Samsung 7.7:

The stock Gallery is good enough to view photos. File Expert is also an option.

VPlayer, MX Player, Dice Player can play almost any media files you throw at it including mkv files.

Polaris Office is an inbuild app to view or edit Word documents. You can get 3rd party apps like Quick Office Pro and Office Suite too.

For PDF: EzPDF, Repligo

Games: Angry bird is everyone's favorite, esp angry bird space. Pool 3D pro, Shadowgun, card games like solitaire.

Must have apps if your Phone is rooted:

Titanium Backup pro

Root Explorer

Superuser

Busybox

Ditch the Stock touchwiz launcher and install ADW launcher EX
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] smitty78:
^ agreed. Touchwiz sux.

You may also want to invest in a quality SD card (if you haven't already). Depending on video quality(Mbps)...expect about 300 min worth of movie storage or 500 min of music @ 13mbps. You can store more than this but you will degrade quality with lower transfer rates.

If you do decide to root your device, you can also save on precious battery life by adding a battery managment app like JuiceDefender.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] 九千.:
I would recommend you to perform the following first before everything else:

1. Get root

2. Install GO Launcher HD (Beta) and make it as default

Some would recommend ADW Launcher EX, but I found GO Launcher HD (Not the EX one) more responsive with less memory footprint. You may compare before decide.

That article is BS. I used s1tool and it didn't unlock anything. It threw my phone into a boot loop instead. I did exactly what it shows there, too, to the letter.

Updating with an unlocked bootloader is generally not a good idea. Doesn't matter though since you can flash updates with flashtool without losing user data.

so my phone got wet.. probably something was spilled over it or something...

anyway it shut down immediately (obvious)

i've opened the battery and pulled it out and i had water there.. i've dried it with a napkin as best as i could and power it on.. id didnt work

i've tried to plug it in the charger (probably shouldnt but was in panic heh) and i got the boot logo and the battery showed 5 precent.. i've waited a couple of minutes and it went up and up.. then i booted the phone... everything worked fine.. thought it was over and all was good.

then after 30 minutes or so i've unpluged the phone and after maybe 5 minutes it shut down (battery showed like 30 precent)

anyway.. i've then dried it some more with a hair drier but still the phone didnt boot

every time i connect the charger it shows 5% but doesnt move from it.. always on 5%..

When plugged in i can try to boot up but i see the M logo and after a few seconds it shuts down, nothing happens

I also can enter recovery or RSD or all the things...

What can i do?? is that the battery thats faulty? or the phone is gone? what can i try??
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giqbal:
Well you have probably ended up frying something by turning it on while it was wet. I think you should let it dry out completely and then try to boot it up. If it still doesn't boot its a goner.

Google ways how to dry it. One way is to put it in a bag of rice for 2 days.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caster62003:
Towards the right of the SIM card, there is a whole in the plastic that has a moisture indicator spot, if that is white, then things are goodish, but if it is red??? then you may be in bad shape. Also, on the underside of the battery, there is another indicator, it should be mostly white with red + all over it, however if it is all red??? then the batter may be a goner. However, electronics these days are protected from some type of moisture, so it may just be still wet on the inside and may just need to be dried up.

To dry up electronics, as mentioned, a bag of dry rice is a great moisture sucker. Otherwise if you have an abundance of silica gel packets laying around, you can toss the phone into a container with those and let them sit for a few days.

However, you did you a hair drier, to that I say good luck. That kind of direct intense heat is horrible for most electronics, there is a very good chance you have destroyed some other internal component, and you probably won't be using your ATRIX any longer.

The issues you are running into are hardware related and the fact you can power on the phone at all surprises me. If you have a warranty plan that supports water damage, you can try reaching out to them and see what they want to do to help you, but considering you blasted a hair dryer at it, I would be very surprised.

Thanks for the replies.. An update for the situation..

I've waited more for the phone to dry and rest and then my girlfriend (her phone actually) started to mess with it and somehow turned it on and it actually works now.

The spot near the sim is white but the spot on the battery is totally red..

Now the strange thing is that the phone indicator shows that there is 5 percent left but when I looked at the battery voltage it showed 4196.. In the morning I checked the voltage and it was 4100 and the indicator showed 1%..

What's up with that??

Is the battery ruined? Or something else? Im going to buy a new one anyway but still...

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
You may have got lucky and just ruined the battery. Watch for corrosion on the connectors in the phone for battery, sim, and sdcard. That may be the next problem if a new battery works out.
