Yeah, I've done it for a friend, he forgot his pattern and was asking me to fix it

He had some Huwaei phone, not rooted etc.

Just had to find the right combo for Recovery mode (googled it) and soon as I did that, just reset it to factory, and it was all good.

Did you have data or anything?

do this

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDIxMiwiY29tLmxvb2tvdXQubGFicy5wbGFuYiJd

press install, if the phone is on and connected to a data/wifi it will auto install the app, then you'll get location email on your GMAIL that tells you where your phone is.

You can also text locate (after the app is installed) and it'll do the same email thing.

I recommend using lookout mobile security. You can use it to locate your phone. Try the above post and if you locate it install lookout.

[Vibrant General] lazylilsnoop:
wow, thats awesome!

ive disable my old simcard tho, im guessing the "locate" txt wont work anymore yea?

so will wait for the email from Plan B and see if its able to tell me the location.
[Vibrant General] lazylilsnoop:
just a quick question, i click on the link xriderx66 gave n install it, google is able to detect my phone model n i click install, but till now it hasnt installed yet, does it means the lost device couldnt be installed?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Are you sure someone took your phone?

It could have lost its battery, so it can't install, or it's not connected to a data/wifi and it can't install.
[Vibrant General] lazylilsnoop:
yea, im pretty sure I lost it. Long story short, someone pinched my phone while i wasnt aware and on the way home I realize it missing n used my friends mobile to call. couldnt get thru.

most probably that pick pocket having a hard time switching on the device after pulling out the battery.

lets say he manage to go into recovery mode n wipe my device, will i still be able to remotely install Plan B into it?
[Vibrant General] flapane:
If he wiped it, then the phone lost its association with your gmail account (for installing apps remotely).
[Vibrant General] lazylilsnoop:
oh really? then i think my phone is history now.... thief these day are good.
[Vibrant General] lazylilsnoop:
i install the PLAN B on my new phone, but there isnt any new mail in my gmail. i even used my friends mobile to txt "locate" to my phone number, nothing pops up in my gmail.

is there a step im missing here?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Not really. If it installed and the app worked, it would work, I've done it to my own phone before.

[HTC One X] emperact:
Today I went to the place I bought the phone, it is about 40 days old and is the black one with serial number HT23. My phone had the yellowish display, and after I have seen the other one (which is more blue) I can't get used to this.

I told him about the display, and he kept asking about the brightness.. lol

And I couldn't not get a new one in the shop, it needed to be sent to the service.

And like that wasn't enough, he couldn't even spell.

In english it would have been like this "de scriin is not as shap as oters htc one x?"

So I really hope HTC can see that the display is yellow and what is wrong, and they choose to give me a new one, then I can also get the white instead.

I just don't hope they choose to disassemble it to put a new screen in, because that could **** up the entire phone..

I am going to update this thread, as I get updates on my phone. :)

After rooting my Galaxy Nexus with Wug's Root Toolkit and sim unlocking with the Docomo hack, and then restoring my apps/data (can't recall if I restored from GN Toolkit or Root Toolkit), my camera app was messed up--could snap pix but they didn't save; and video always fc'ed. The solution turns out to be to rename or delete the DCIM folder. I couldn't delete--so I renamed. Now I am trying to delete that DCIM.old folder and contents (eating up 1+G on my storage), but cannot delete either individual files or the folder. I'm sure there is a simple solution, but I can't find it. Help (even with a condescending attitude :rolleyes:) much appreciated!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beatsleigher:
If you use a file explorer, that has it's standard directory at / then all you need to do is navigate to /mnt/sdcard/ then make sure it's mounted as R/W and not R/O, if all that is the way I said it, you shouldn't have problems deleting anything, if so, use the ADB and type:

adb shell rm /mnt/sdcard/<Folder>

That should then do the trick :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dumtidum:
You could also try the following Apps:

- Rootexplorer (paid)

- Astro File Manager
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zzcat:
FamilyGuy, thanks for the suggestion, the problem seems to be bad permissions and I can't figure out how to fix them. Tried the "fix permissions" from recovery, as well as when booted, to no avail.

Typing

adb shell rm -rf /[directory]

gives me "permission denied"

So tried

chmod 666 /sdcard/.../*

but get an "operation not permitted" message.

So I'm really stuck here...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zzcat:
Update: solved

boot into recovery mode

mount /data

adb shell

rm, rmdir etc. all work as expected from here, no need to chown or chmod anything

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danger-rat:
I see you've solved this, but i thought i would throw this in anyway...

The easy way is to delete the files from /data/media

The sdcard directory is a symlink, so go to the true folder and you should have more success...

Sometimes the file ownerships get messed up after a cycle of recovering the OS and restoring files.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1515291&page=2

If you have any other directories/files that you can't modify or delete, then boot into CWM recovery, plug in the USB cable, go into adb shell. Also make sure that /data is mounted in the CWM mounts menu. Then:

cd /data/media

chown -R media_rw.media_rw *

This fixed it for me and others.

Thanks for this and other suggestions--my solution was trial and error, thrashing around in the dark (my unix command line chops are really, really rusty), and these are far more elegant. It's good to understand the underlying problem, your wisdom is appreciated.

Yes, permissions were messed up after rooting and applying a sim unlock hack, wiping and restoring from pre-unlock backup set. I see it so clearly now...

Problem can somebody help me?

Hello. I have a problem with my motorola defy+ running on gb 2.3.6 and is not ROOTED. Still he has an annoyng problem. After installing an aplication (not from the market) i saw that it didn't save data on the sd card. I uninstalled it and after a data factory reset i install apps such as temple run and Brother in Arms 2. At temple run it gave me this mesage

"File Access Problem Caution, unable to write files. This means your game progress can't be saved! Reason: Access to the path "/mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.imangi.templerun/files/spaceholder.dat" is denied."

Also at Brother in Arms 2 the game didn't save. I rest the phone abouat 7-8 times.I changed the sd card. Note that the card was a 16 gb kingmax class 6 and put the 2 gb card that came with the phone. It all work smoothly. So what is the problem the sd card or the phone's software. Please answer i'm desparate and tired of wasting time.

This thread is about the Samsung Galaxy Nexus which has no external SD and uses a very different storage structure. I'm afraid we can't really help you here. Try the Defy forum.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Before chmod the folder, you needed to be root by entering 'su' after 'adb shell' .

It worked from cwm, because cwm gives root access.

Linux/Android are all about permissions.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Sorry to hear that. It sounds like the problem you are having is with a completely different device, so I can't really say why this may be occurring - I don't know how your device's file system is structured. This advice is specifically for the Galaxy Nexus. If a version of CWM exists for your smartQme device, I can't speak to whether it works properly and interprets commands the same way ours does.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rocketero:
it's a 9.8 inches tablet branded named called "LePanII'. it has ICS now, before we had Honeycomb 3.2.1.

The manufacture of this tablet did such a bad partitioning that the /system partition was left only with merely 4MB of free space in it.

Good luck with your issue. I doubt it's related to the one we were having on the GNex though.

I have been surfing a lot over rooting my phone. Still looking to chose the best method. The most prominent being of 'em all - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1145035. In this method, I got stuck with not getting the correct version of unRevoked. Ths method is bit lengthier too :eek:

Recently, found HTC Unlock Bootloader. wanted to know whthr doin that method is worth it. Have anyone rooted using this method? (as there is no s-offing in this method)

1. install stock RUU and unlock the phone as told in HTC Dev.

2. Install CWM and put your custom ROM.

Any suggestions/helps on this will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Success htc Dev!

Hi, just to let you know I successfully rooted my Wildfire S (originally S-ON) using the htc dev route.

Here is a great vid showing the htc dev steps:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqCk2NiHTTg

I got stuck at the ruu part at the beginning. My version number was higher than the one required by the website/ruu. Many posts say just use the one for your region anyway however this resulted in a message saying I needed to upgrade my version to the lower version. I found a post that just said skip the ruu part and move onto the next step. Did this and success!

I then went on to install cyanogenmod 7.2 port (unofficial version as cyanogenmod 7 not available direct from cyanogenmod as far as I can tell).

This video shows how to do it and has 2 links to the cyanogenmod 7 .zip file and the google aps .zip.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cu--CpBM5SM

I would suggest choosing the cyanogenmod download from here instead as this is direct form the (unofficial) developer of the port:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
I just rooted and unlocked both my phone and my girlfriends. I did exactly the same procedure for both. Then I flashed viperROM 1.2.1 and runandhide's button remaps. It's also worth knowing that the phones are sitting side by side. Both have the latest PRLs and did a profile update on mine as well, also tried to completely deactivate and reactivate.

Now that the background info is out of the way, here is my issue:

Randomly (I tried to find a pattern, none emerged) my phone will go into roaming and the network operator will switch to "31000". Except it isn't roaming, the phone does not work at all, I can't place a call or use data (I do have data/voice enabled under roaming guards). The strange thing about this is that my girlfriends phone which is literally right next to mine has full bars. The issue lasts for about 1-10 seconds and then it's back on the Sprint network.

Here is a screenshot of when it happens:

What could be the cause? Faulty phone? I'm flashing back to stock to monitor if it happens there, I will update. Does anyone have any insight? Should I replace my phone?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nightdenizen:
Try disabling LTE and Roaming

I was having the same problem. I tried updating PRL, etc without effect. Finally went into "Settings" > "Mobile network settings". I disabled LTE ("Network Mode" > "CDMA only") and Roaming ("Roaming" > "Sprint only"). I haven't had any problems since. I'm wondering if it was a fluke and the problem will return. Hopefully someone else can verify/reproduce this solution, since this appears to be a huge issue.

[HTC Sensation] realsis:

Everyone has to learn. Look how much you learned already! :)
[HTC Sensation] sshede:
Not totally true. From what I've read, higher class SDs, such as class 10s, gain that additional speed at the cost of random access speed. Random access speed is the speed at which the card can load a particular file such as a song or photo.

That can potentially cause delays in playing music, among other things.
[HTC Sensation] DonDizzurp:
yup

heard its best to have a good class 6 sdcard for android devices

(a real class 6, not just labeled class 6 but works like a class 2)
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
Good advice man :)

I use class 4 and it makes my sensation fly. I'm pretty satisfied with it.
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
SD Card classes denote the minimum speed at which data is written to the SD Card. For example, you can transfer a file prom your PC to a class 4 SD Card at a minimum speed of 4 MB/s (24 Mbit/S) under optimum conditions.

The speed at which data is read from the SD Card is dependent on the device, so in effect, all classes of SD Cards are the same for your device unless substantial amount of data is being written onto the SD Card.
[HTC Sensation] DonDizzurp:
you mean maximum, dont you?
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Minimum. Look it up if you like. Maximum was the old grading system.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Hi I'm using a class 4. It seems great! I just got it. I traded out my old 16 for a new 16, they fill up fast.I like san disk they seem pretty good.

I always use that brand.I've never had trouble with that brand. Be cautious when purchasing because some brands can be a rip off .but it's a class 4. Works great for me. Hope this helps you out. :)
