Can I use twrp recovery on this firerats. Or is it only the provided cwm recovery ?

Sent from my HERO200
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tux2609:
So I flashed this data2ext on my desire, the phone recognized my ext partition as internal memory, but, I can't install any apps, I always get the message "application not installed".

Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cytherian:
Firerats has nothing to do with recovery. It's about resizing partitions. Recovery functions on a level above, so whatever you do with firerats won't affect it. TWRP is a great recovery program.

Try again. Go through the instructions verbatim, as outlined. I wouldn't deviate in any way.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ZyberXDA:
It was a long time I used this but it still works on my HTC hero following the guide. Only after install I noticed I need a much higher cache because it is getting full so fast. I use elelinux gingerbread, only 140mb system is used so I think I change it to 150mb and make a bigger cache partition. I don't need data partition because all is on ext-sd partition of 4GB.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k@ke:
I was told to make ".nomedia" file to hide unwanted music files. Problem is, that i placed it on my usb-memory root and now my photos etc. are hide. This was so noobish thing to do, i was too tired that i didn't think. :)

Problem is, that i don't see ".nomedia" file, so i could remove it. Can you guys give me a hint, how to solve this problem?

Edit:

I found the solution. I had to select "show hidden files" from es file explorer and that way i founded ".nomedia" file. I removed it and rebooted my Note and everything is back to normal.

Can you guys tell me how .nomedia file works? Do i put it in all those folders that i don't want my musicplayer to find or what?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matius44:
Yup

Also another solution would be to set up a folder with those unwanted media files and put .nomedia there, more organised IMHO :)

Unless they are games files of course then you have to put the .nomedia file in respective folders

Unable to enter download mode or recovery mode on my galaxy R.

Is there any other way to enter download mode apart from pressing the 3 buttons ?

Usb Jig. :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
I don't think it will help. If you cannot enter DM/RM

DM - Volume Down + Home + Power

RM - hold Power button (until splash screen), then release power and press Volume Up + Home

go to your service place and ask for replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] emanoj.i9103:
Apologies. I thought it might. :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
come on, no need to apologize :) I guess jig would do the trick on galaxy S, or S2 but it

works kinda weird on SGR. For example once I as flashing FW via Odin and installation stopped for some reason. I had to reboot. Of course I couldn't boot the system, so I used usb jig -same ****....Thanks God 3keys combination worked as usual so I could reflash FW.

Raul15 it's a serious hw-issue if you cannot enter any of those modes, imagine if you mess up with something then you're screwed with no chance to recover and voided guarantee. I would ask for replacement.

sorry i got my phone today and i updated it via wifi. now it's running ics 4.0.2 build icl53f. and it doesn't do anything when i tap update again. i thought it would upgrade to 4.0.4.

can i flash the latest aokp now or do i have to flash 4.0.4 via odin first?

does it make a difference?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
No difference at all.

Use my guide (linked in sig...post #2) to install a rom the correct way (bug free).

I personally just updated.

Solid build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unlawful:
Just in case you wanted to know why you didn't get the update for 4.0.4, Google doesn't control the release cycle for non-yakju phones (phones that are running ROMs from carriers/vendors). It has to go through their process before it gets sent to you. If you really want IMM76I without needing to go the custom route, just flash the yakju (stock Google) images here. Instructions are here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Faadiz:
I have YAKJU build still no Jellybean OTA on my GNexus

I am now on IMM76I & i have not received OTA update to Jellybean 4.1.

Is per your instructions I have updated to the Google version of ICS (YAKJU).

Should I wait for the OTA? or is there any other way to get Jellybean? (Dont want to root)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
You can try to "force it" with the Google Services Framework trick. That's about it.

hi

i have acer a500 and i have 4.0.3 stock without root and i try to connect my hdd wd NTFS and i see nothing on root explorer or es file explorer or..oi file manager..

what i'm wrong with?

thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] frankws:
It could be a number of things.

First of all, what is the hd you are connecting?

Is it a portable?

Some work and some don't.

A portable HD that does work will draw power from the A500.

When you plug it in you will hear it spin up and the light will flash on it, indication it is being read.

If the light comes on and then immediately goes off then the drive wont work because it probably requires more power.

Also in your file manage it will come up as usb.

And if it does work you nedd to let the A500 read it before opening your file manager.

It will be ready to see in the file manager when the light stops blinking.

Some have found the following to work on some tablets.

NTFS is related to Microsoft licensing and Android doesnt have the neccessary license to work , most fat 32 drive will work with no problems , if you have root there are ways around the licensing issues , you might try something like this :

NTFSMount.apk

To use the NTFSMount app,you need root you should follow the instructions below;

- Install APK

- Connect HDD

- Launch app

- Select device

- Click Mount

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hello

My mom just got her S2 and I want to root it and install a custom kernel. I'm experienced at rooting my own galaxy s, but I just want to confirm a couple of things:

1. Is the install method the same as i9000, as in using cf-root via odin, then wipe cache and dalvik, then flash custom kernel?

Heard about a yellow triangle on s2, will it show when using custom kernel, if so can I just fix it with the app on the market using the stock rom?

What kernel do you recommend? Looking for a kernel that is giving the extra little smoothness, oc capability, maybe frees up some ram (aka bigmem on i9000), custom lmk and deep idle. However stability is more important than features.

Best regards:)

Hi, this is my first post in this forum, but I normally am posting in the Transformer Prime one.

I have a Galaxy S+ on And. 2.3.5 with original setup, not unlocked or other tweaks.

Is there a way to increase the WiFi strength and improve battery life a bit.

I am running with minimal display brightness, and my WiFi signal is the lowest of all devices I have at home.

I tweaked the "build.prop" settings with the Prime so I have a question:

Is there a way to tweak the build.prop in the GS+ to improve it, like in ICS 4.0.3?

I have chosen all options to have better battery life but it seems that "idle" eats a lot of power.

WiFi could be better.

I have a Netgear WNDR 3700 with fibre 30/30 and I hoped in a good signal like Ipad 2 or the wife's HTC Desire. :)

I wanted to follow up these great instructions by adding that there is a way to do this if you are already dual booting Webos and Android.

I followed the instructions here http://code.google.com/p/hp-touchpad-ubuntu/wiki/Installation and had no trouble with a preexisting install of Android CM9 and Moboot. Smooth and easy as pie. I also was able to easily uninstall using the provided uninstall script.

Just wanted to let people know that if you are already dual booting you can add Ubuntu with no worry of breaking a preexisting dual boot or having to Doctor anything.

[TouchPad Development] MikeCriggs:
You don't need them but they are preferred. Audio, mic, camera, and compositing are a few major bugs.
[TouchPad Development] babcocca:
Please pardon my ignorance... is the Arch Linux implementation more complete? You didnt mention if the Ubuntu port required external keyboard / mouse or actually had touchscreen support.
[TouchPad Development] VitaZora:
Touch does work, or at least it did for me, but laggy. After the initial wireless fix I was also able to connect to wifi and bluetooth devices. I connected and used a bluetooth keyboard. Did not test a BT mouse but it probably works as well. I was also able to connect to wifi after the fix, but after another reboot, I could not connect to wifi again. My Touchpad saw my wireless but could not connect.

It's amazing that Ubuntu works as well as it does at this point, but for me, it's not useful enough to keep without a consistent wifi connection.

However, I don't think running webOS Doctor 3.0.5 will get me back to the initial configuration without any partitions, since you create those in step E of part 1 and then run webOS Doctor in step F, so obviously webOS Doctor doesn't undo whatever you did previously.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KillBorn07:
Hy guys!

I own an i9023, and I'm a frequent reader of XDA's Nexus S section. A week ago I've decided to change the stock kernel. I choose the newest Matr1x kernel, i found this the most sympathetic, after reading through several [kernel] threads. So i tried the 19.5 BFS/CFS, and now my device is on 20.0 CFS with stock rom 4.0.4. I've installed NSTools too. And using smartassV2/noop 100/1000 DIDLE, and no OC, and default voltages too.

I am absolutely statisfied with the kernel, it is much smoother than stock, and has a great battery life, and gets better with every update. At least in case 19.5 to 20:p

But here is my problem:

Almost in every boot, my phone reboots

once

during boot. After it is rebooted, works like a charm, no freezes, nor reboots. Fast, reliable, anything you want.

I noticed the device boots without any problem after flashing kernel, before applying any NSTools settings, or if I use resetnstools.zip.

So i am thinking, maybe NSTools can be the source of this reboot.

Here is my NSTools settings:

All tewaks off, 97%, noop.

CPU: smartassV2, 100/1000

liveOC: 100%, 800, 1000

DIDLE: ON

SmartassV2: awake ideal 1000, sleep ideal 100, sleep wakeup 600, min load 70, max 85, ramp down 200, up 200, down rate 49000, up 48000

volt: default

Settings: set on boot

So any idea what is causing this reboot? Or this is normal? I think it is not, but it even could be:)

Thanks the answer.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Matr1x is undervolted by default. Try upping them a bit or reverting to stock voltages.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
This. My phone hates undevolting and I had to return all the voltage settings to the stock Nexus settings if I want to use his kernel. Since I changed them, I've had no reboots or freezes.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KillBorn07:
Thanks the fast answer Harbb and chronophase1!

Looks like mine hates the UV too:( Raised the voltages a bit (didn't changed the INT, and that ARM, what was already on Nexus S default), look like good at first look. But requires further testing, to say the problem is gone. Thanks again.
