[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] androholic:
Sorry nothing! THANK YOU! I was like 3/4 of the way to that idea, I had already copied the file, but I was just thinking maybe if I deleted the internal file, maybe now it will follow the one I copied to the mount/extsdstorage? I can't thank you enough for just confirming that this isn't a problem specific to my model. I think that this problem should be explained to everyone & stickied. This is a seriously confusing situation. Ppl who don't root or come to XDA won't have any idea why they're music, videos, or anything from third party apps aren't going to their sd cards? Some ppl may not even realize it? I don't know if it's been mentioned in another thread here yet, but I couldn't find anything in our forums about it, and I've been trying to figure out what was going on all day. I still don't understand what the hell it meant about emulated storage?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] androholic:
Is this already a widely recognized problem and I'm just late to the freaking party or what? Because I do follow threads, search the forums, and read, and I've never heard of this before... I hope they have this error fixed in roms.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Glasairmell:
All stock Samsung Galaxies S3 do this. Google in their infinite wisdom is locking down apps so they can not write to an external card that can infect other devices.

Problem is we all want more control with our external cards and there are a lot of unhappy campers with this new "feature". Gamers are especially concerned because they can not install their games to the external card to free up more space.

This is a real strong reason to buy the 32gb model and not the 16gb. One could take the stance that they are forcing us to pay a higher premium for our storage when we purchase the phone.

As I said you can do the work around with directory bind until:

1. A dev comes up with a a patch

2. You install a custom Rom like Cm9 that has patched out this security policy.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] androholic:
Never mind... Now that I'm using better keywords to describe the problem, and searching outside of just the US variants forum, I'm finding threads... I feel like an idiot now! Some folks are talking as if this is better? I don't see it though. I did a nandroid after root, and it only left me with around 8gb or so with my apps installed. I know its faster memory than an sd card, but it's kind of a pain. I hope I never need to download anything bigger than 8gb... Doubtful ill need my phone for anything that big though.

Sorry for freaking out and making a big deal out of this issue, but I thought my device was defective, and I wasn't using good search terms. I should have been able to figure this out without cluttering things with a two Page thread.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] androholic:
Yes, I really wish I could take it back and pay the difference for the 32gb, but with being rooted its really not feasible. I was browsing XDA on my phone also, and I didn't even catch the link in your first post, I was only reading the links I your second post, lol. I really feel like a dummy here since my question was almost immediately answered. Also, the browser can act a little wonky sometimes on XDA. As soon as I made it home to my desktop, I was looking over the thread & knocking my forehead against the screen!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] SiNJiN76:
Yeah...but if someone could modify that script for our phones...(I personally use it on my Transformer...and til this day...has been perfect.) :angel:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Glasairmell:
Actually you are bringing up a valid concern and one of the first to do it in this section of the US version of the S3, my hat off to you!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] androholic:
It would be good idea to have a stickied thread in general that addresses this. That way ppl will be well aware of how to work around it. And yes, a patch for this would be great, because some may prefer things this way, and alot will prefer the previous standards. I for one don't like this one bit!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] chrischoi:
Put a stock rom on it and go into the store. Tell them you're having issues, they can order one on their end and send it out to you.

I would know. I worked there.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmm200:
One of my main uses for this device is as an EReader.

My question is what will be the best EReader application.

I currently have the Sony PRS600, which is a great reader - but hard to use at night in bed.

One feature I use more than I would have expected is double-click and word and it does a dictionary lookup. Really very handy...

The ability to select font size and reflow the text is a must...

Less used features are the ability to highlight and bookmark pages.

How does the included reader for EPubs compare? I have absolutely no interest in pdf format - I don't find it appropriate on small displays. I want text to be text - and not a picture of text.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VonLaserface:
I'm using Nook now and I'm pretty happy with it. You can change the font, font size, margins, line spacing, page/text color (sepia, white on black, etc) and set the screen brightness within in the app so it auto-dims when you start reading. You can highlight text to make notes and perform dictionary searches.

I'm quite sure most any of the popular reader apps have similar features so I couldn't compare it to Kindle or claim it's the best. I tend to get B&N gift cards on any given holiday so I've stuck with it as my regular reader app.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmm200:
If the Nook app looks good on the Nexus, that sounds pretty good. Nook certainly has a reputation for a good reader, and I still have my B&N membership card from my abortive Tablet purchase...

Would love to see some feedback on the stock Nexus application...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMXO:
Moon Reader Pro does it all
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solar.Plexus:
+1 absolutely in favor of Moon+ Reader for ePubs.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmm200:
Anyone tried Moon Reader on the Nexus 7 yet?

A plus for me is that they do not even try to support pdf's.

Guessing Portrait should look best on a 7 inch?

Wishful thinking: Anyone tried it with stickmount yet?

Definitely a contender if it works well on the Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nospin:
Check out the General section, stickmount works for transferring files, but we haven't been able to open/play files on any external storage.....yet.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yerand:
I recommend aldiko :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkamikaze:
Yeah I love aldiko. simple and it does the job. Moon Reader seems to be the trend now though and I've tried. It has a lot going on if that's what you're after.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmm200:
Play Books seems to have eliminated itself from the competition, since it does not support the EPub format.

My entire library is in EPubs, managed by Calibre, and I see no reason to change.

I got some good suggestions here for readers that will work. Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movieaddict:
cool reader supports mobi files so if ur coming from a fire then no need to convert them
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leebo:
Are there any readers that would let me put the book in my Dropbox folder and keep track of where I left off if I switch between my N7 and phone?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjupille:
Nook for B&N stuff (obviously!) and FBreader for everything else (I have a mix of epub and prc files).

The Nook app will sync your position across devices, at least for content from B&N. Not sure whether it works on sideloaded content.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leebo:
I should have been more specific: Books in epub or other open formats.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 99RedB:
Moon+ allows that.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkamikaze:
i'm surprised moon doesn't like mobi files.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leebo:
By Moon+, do you mean the paid version?

Also, does it sync all formats it can open? I downloaded a book in pdf format, will it sync that?

Otherwise I have to see if I can convert it to epub.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leebo:
I'm still struggling with trying to figure out how to keep moon reader synced between devices. Guess I'll have to check out their web site and hope it explains it.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] aygunhan:
Hello,

I have a ics update problem on my motorola razr xt910. The device is not working now. I would appreciated for your help

Motorola Razr xt910 eu

Steps done: Device update folder (with memory card) has been applied and device has been locked itself. I have tried couple of different eu rom with Rds and sd card but nothing has changed. Afterwards the battery has died so I couldn’t process anything then I got a factory cable. Eventho I didn’t need the battery anymore, none of the processes I have done with the factory cable has resolve the problem.

Now the device can only get into the menu that we open with volume+- and poweroff buttons but afterwards it can only get into the ap fast boot menu. so it can only load a full flash with rds but since it cannot get into the recovery mode, it cannot install or update from the memory card. I need full version of eu rom to flash my device using rds can you supply it? or can I go back to the version 2.3.6? or can we make the non working flash mod option work and can we get the system work again with an update folder?

Thank you for your help

invalid cg otv (cg: webtop)

What should I do?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BakaPhoenix:
have you used boot menu and flashend on the seocnd system?

btw you should fix flashing the webtop_signed like you have done with the system_signed (changing flash system with flash webtop)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aygunhan:
rsd used..

how webtop signed?

Please explain that a little more? speak English very weak
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BakaPhoenix:
go in the link poster before, download the rds file of gb and eternity project fastboot file

after that put the eprj-mfastboot.exe in the same folder of webtop_signed (a file inside the gb rds files) open a command shell of windows and go in that folder and type

eprj-mfastboot flash webtop webtop_signed

This should be work, if you want to be more sure flashagain the rds file of ics and wipe cache/data into recovery

ok only webtop flashing..

Root

@tyman, That's amazing. But I really don't want to flash a rom and just stay on stock

@tehsprayer, Rooting is basically gaining FULLY control of your phone. I use adam002 kernel. Which makes your phone faster. Your stock speed is 1.5mhz, with the kernel you can make it to 1.89mhz.. It runs alot slicker and faster. You can uninstall all those useless apps that come with the phone.. So it's amazing.. and if I helped you can you hit thanks? if you did thanks :)

For an idea of how useless Quadrant actually is, on my Atrix I could almost hit 6000 with Aura in "performance mode".

That same Motorola Atrix you see there in screenshots. Yes, it scored higher than the S3. (The only higher metric was CPU, it was almost hitting 16000 CPU)

In real, day to day usage... it is night and day. The S3 is incomparably smooth when set next to ANY rom on the Atrix (stock, custom stock, CM7, CM9, AOKP...)
