[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
what nexus are you talking about? ill agree the nexus s was a plasticy hunk of crap, but the galaxy nexus is very solidly built. since i got my extended battery free from sprint (two of them to be exact ;) ) i like the feel of it in my hand even more.

the photon community has more than tripled than when i first found it and i am very happy for you guys, i loved my photon like no other but i would definetly have to say my gnexus has stolen my heart. despite not being a true AOSP device (sprints gnexus is the only one without binaries or source code in AOSP), we were able to get jellybean working damn near flawlessly within a day of google I/O, our biggest setback? MMS. now that we have source we have a bunch of jellybean based roms that are all flawless.

Pros:

Newest software updates well in advance of OTA's

Future proofing yourself with LTE

Bigger screen

Free extended battery if you act quickly

Slight performance bump

Unlockable bootloader

Color control (dont like how samoled is super saturated? change the color tuning to how you like ;) )

there is a lot of kernel work out there and a handful of roms (i say handful cuz we have all the big ones CM, AOKP, CNA, AOSP, MIUI etc etc)

Cons:

Lose webtop (you can buy an MHL adapter and mirror, but none of teh fancy webtop stuff :P )

You'll be stuck on 3G for a while (assuming you have wimax now)

You'll lose Motoblur

im sure there is more im forgetting but i cant remember at this time
[Motorola Photon 4G] sin-cal:
I may be a little biased. Not a fan of the samsung phones. The plasticky feel/look is such a turn off an the radios ive experienced with the few phones ive had in hand were atrocious. These threads are all about personal opinion. No one answer is right. OP, go physically use both for as long as you can. We ultimately cant decide whats attractive to you. Hands on/time spent is the best way. And if you cant decide, hands off an wait till something comes up that does blow your skirt up :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I have used GN one month and returned to Photon, it was not worth the money for that. It would be good upgrade from Defy, maybe Atrix (screen size) or something with one core cpu, but not from Photon. Just my opinion. I am waiting for Droid RAZR HD.
[Motorola Photon 4G] hellot1M:
I moved from the photon to the nexus and don't regret it. Idk why others are bashing the radio. I've always felt photon had the best radios but I honestly can't tell the difference in signal strength between the two. I also have an e4gt and that had a horrible radio. Traded it out for another e4gt and same issue. Tried the g3 and it was slightly better but not anywhere close to the gnex and photon.

Battery life is better

Screen quality is better

Design is PERFECT! feels amazing to hold and look at

Speed is obvious just check out the specs. Ive overclocked to 1.8 once and ran buttery smooth. Went back to 1.2 for battery life.

I can't think of a reason not to move to the nexus.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Omar04:
First of all in my home there are a Photon / GNex(not always, friend phone) / E4GT and I notice something about them, people claim Photon has better radio (partial true imo) and Samsung GNex or E4GT weak one (partial true), in Photon it always shows full signal no matter if there is good or bad coverage but when you connect a call it shows the real signal strength ex. 2-3Bars same as the Sammy devices are showing with or w/o a call so IMHO is just a placebo effect on Photon.

And for OP go GNex you won't regret.

Or maybe Photon Q (I'm getting it for my wife).

I just recently bought a new 16GB SD card. I previously had a 8GB which I had partitioned. So how to transfer my apps from the ext2 partition of my old SD card to my new SD card ? Please help it's urgent...:)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teshand:
And also I have about 1.80GB left on my old SD card. But look at the screenshot below. When I am using root explorer it says i can't overwrite apps(.apks) as I am out of storage (520KB left). But I had already partitioned this SD card dedicating 1GB for internal. Is this because my partition is full ? My internal memory from system/app in settings says I still have 164MB left. So how come root explorer is finding only 520KB free. See screenshot below. I need help guys :)

Would really appreciate any help :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teshand:
Any help guys ? My question is very simple: How to transfer my apps and data which is on my partition on my 8GB SD card to my new one ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Use a windows app like partition wizard, it's free just Google it. Use an adapter for one card, put the new one in your phone and connect to your pc. There's a function to copy a partition, use that.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teshand:
Can anyone tell me if I can use Titanium back-up or do a nandroid back-up and restore it in my new SD card for this operation ? Which method is the best ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omtay2311995:
i just love it when i can help someone:

ok here is the deal

i had the stock 8GB card with 2GB for 2nd partition so i bought a new 32GB and i needed to move the old 2nd partition's data to the new sd's

all you have to do is to do a nananroid to your old sd so that it will backup your 2nd partition

now move your /clockworkmod folder to PC and then partition the new sdcard with any size you wont (2gb is very typical)

move the /clockworkmod folder to the new sd and go to recovery>>backup and restore>>advanced restore and select "sd-ext"

and now you have you 2nd partition data as they were:angel::angel::angel:

pm me if you need help with that or more detail:angel:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Doc:
uve alot of stuff that i couldnt understad:confused: im slow learner:eek: and mad as i need away to move apps to sd card ive just installed ics which is driving me crazy any thoughts about this
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omtay2311995:
here is a step by step detail:

1-your device need to be rooted and bootloader unlocked

2-bacup the contents of your sd to your pc

3-go to your clockworkmod recovery

4-go to advanced>>partion sd card>> and chose the size that suit you(2GB is perfect even for an app addict) and after that it will tell you to choose the swamp partition choose 128MB (not more)

5-now install a free app from the market called link2sd and when you open it choose all your user apps and choose (create link) and link every thing

6-now all your apps will be on the 2nd sd partition

pm me if you need more help i will be glad
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cytherian:
I think you may have missed a step... don't you need to copy the nandroid backup to the new SD card and the restore it from there, after it has been set up with the partitions?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buxx:
You can copy partitions easily with MiniTool Drive Copy tool.

use 2 card-readers

Thread closed due to missing download link and inactivity of OP! Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator

I have developed a stealth cell phone spy/monitoring app for android. All the monitored data is tracked from the website with your account. This is in very early beta stages and need some volunteers to test this on different devices and android versions.

The app can monitor:

- SMS

- Calls

- Phonebook

- Browsing history

- GPS locations

All data is encrypted and is not reviewed.

While this is in beta, you don't have to pay anything for it.

If you are interested please send me a PM or post here if you have any question.

Screenshots
[Android Apps and Games] hotelier1984:
How will it be different from Mighty Text or Airdroid, both of which have those functionalities?
[Android Apps and Games] shararti:
It is stealth, which means remains hidden on the phone. Which is good for monitoring your children or employees. Plus there are more features on to-do list which will be in future release.

[Android Apps and Games] frenzyboi:
Please don't get this post wrong. I just wanna know a few things. Sorry!

Firstly, is it safe to send the data in plain text to your website?

Secondly, I know a lot of data is being sent to your website, such as the phone brand, imei, phone number, messages, device details etc. Are those data stored in your database securely? For example,encrypted with a key or something so it will only be viewed by the user themselves?

Thirdly, will you be viewing those data?

Suggestion :

Encrypt data before sending it to your sever.

Have user to create a key so only they can view the data.

Thank you! Like I've said, I just wanna know a few things, that's all. Thanks ;)

I have updated my photon by mistake to 2.3.5 in July with out realizing that I was rooted. Now in August I realized that I was not rooted since I wanted to try unlock boot loader. Any case, I tried the torpedo method, One click method and many others.

The problem is that the libphoton.so file is still there in my /lib directory and the permissions got changed. I tried to rename the references with "2" in the photon-torpedo.sh file but still didnt have success. Any one have any ideas on how to get back root?

[Nook Touch General] repoocaj:
Has anyone looked into changing how the nook wakes up from sleep?

I haven't found much when searching the forums.

Having a method that would allow the nook to wake with a pattern of button presses would be useful in situations when you can't physically touch the screen. My particular use case for this is that I've found that if I have my nook in a waterproof bag, you can't swipe the screen and hence can't wake it back up.

Any thoughts, pro or con, on the usability of a change like this?

thanks,

Jeff
[Nook Touch General] domi.nos:
Is not just disabling that lock easier? You can eigher use No Lock or Tasker, which is better IMO.

However if you still wish to unlock it using some combination of keys, try making a task in Tasker, i GUESS it SHOULD be possible (but it is much work I think)

EDIT: or install Widgetlocker, and set a unlocking widget to center of the screen, so it can be easlier accessed.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
My experience shows that a waterproof bag drives the screen crazy anyway.

If, using any kind of web browser, you go to https://play.google.com/store you can remote install apks when logged into the same google account as the phone. Well, turns out "HTC Sync" isn't in the store. In fact, I have no idea what you uninstalled.

Advantage: No need to have an internet connection

step-1 create a wifi hotspot using u'r laptop's wifi through connectify-me and in the field of connection to share select option "No internet Sharing" and then connect your android to this wifi signal

step-2 open your windows explorer and press "Map Network Drive"

step-3 click on "Connect to a Web site that you can use to store....." option and then click next and again click next

step-4 install " WellFTP Server " in your android phone and open it and note down the Network Address

step-5 Enter the address in the address bar

eg: ftp://192.168.65.100:1234 and click next and again click next

step-6 Give the network a name eg: My Android, and then click finish

There you go...you have setup a network location to your android successfully...now you can browse your sdcard as if you are browsing your hard drive :victory: :victory: :victory:

All you have to do is connect your Android to connectify-me and then open WellFTP server in your phone and Browse through WINDOWS EXPLORER

I'm posting yet ANOTHER thread about LH8 hopefully to get the moderators to notice that there are currently FIVE different threads in just this subforum for downloading the LH8 leak. This is just a bit more insane than the LH7 leak which had 3 threads, and the LH6 thread that had 2 threads.

Moderators, PLEASE clean up this mess!

I'd suggest that a MODERATOR create a new thread titled "ALL JB LEAKS HERE", sticky it (until the final JB release) and merge the complete mess going on into that one thread. By having a moderator create a new thread for it, we don't see bickering over who created which thread and so-on.

I agree, it's very annoying to see each person posting their own copy of a leak. I know people try to help the community, but it spamming about a topic makes no sense.

The point is that ALL of the LH8 threads should be merged... There's no reason for everyone who repackages the leak in a different way to start yet ANOTHER thread.

[Galaxy S III General] garyd9:
..and another is a nandroid and the 5th is.. OTA also, I believe. So we should have completely seperate threads for each repackaging?

I wonder if I should spend the rest of the day making CWM zip's, using different compression levels for each zip, and make a new thread for each one?

Or, perhaps repackage the OTA with the modem, one without? Then a CWM with options for formatting the cache, one without. Then an ODIN with recovery, another with the modem.. and so on.

Wouldn't it be better if ALL the repackaging posts were done in the same thread? That'd make things so much cleaner AND easier to find!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natboy:
I thought there was an AT&T OTA to go to 2.3.7 so I was wondering if there was ever a ROM based off of it, or if anyone ever grabbed the update. I looked around but the only 2.3.7 ROM's I could find were CM7's. I was also thinking of looking through Motorola's server but I've never done that before and couldn't remember the procedure on how to do that.

I'm currently on epinters CM10 which is great but I want fingerswipe/webtop back. I've used Nottachrix's ROM in the past and thought it was really good, but there's no more support for it, so the quest begins. Also I figure if nothing else, if I could get a fruitcake of it, it'd be a good place to start hacking up a ROM.
