Hey,

Basically, left my tablet on the side, and it randomly restarted. I then later noticed that all of my Snotes had disappeared and cannot find them with the file manager app either.

Is there any way to restore these!?

Thanks in advance

Not rooted unfortunately, thanks though. Just disappointed that this can happen with unmodified, stock firmware on the flagship app for the device.

Shall be exporting important notes as pdf's and syncing with dropbox in future.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitchellvii:
This should not have happened. However, I recommend DropSync for synching your notes with Dropbox. Much better than what comes with SNotes.

So nothing in the SNotes folder on your SDCard?

---------- Post added at 05:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 PM ----------

They would be in mnt/sdcard folder under SNotes
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 6pool:
Only thing in the 'S Note' folder is init.txt.

Totally agree with you about DropSync, Using that with ezPDF reader and it works great.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitchellvii:
You can search your sdcard for *.snb files and see if they somehow got misplaced (although quite unlikely). I just can't see how the tablet would have wiped your files unless they weren't saved properly in the first place.

This is second time I experiencing this. This time I lost many notes. Started snote, message syncing apeared and kaboom, no notes at all.

I am more and more dissapointed with this tablet every day. This is even worse than windows. Not serious working tool at all.

Always back up

You know Samsung backs s-notes up by default to Your Samsung link account. So look for the link icon in your app drawer . You could be lucky enough to find them.

But i Own a Synology Disk Station.I Use a app from the app store called DS Cloud to backup my s- notes. SO i created a sub folder in the s note directory called my notes. then i sync that folder to my disk station. I do this on my note phone and note tablet.if you have two note devices You can NOT Sync the s- note home directory or you will corrupt the temples as it will sync them across your devices. Learned this the Hard way..

I also sync them to google drive as well Just in case. I use s note for onsite measurements and estimates for Construction Projects . as well as use it to track them as they progress. So i Can NOT take any chances on loosing my notes.

Good Luck with preventing it from happening again . I will watch my backups more closely from now on to insure im always backed up..
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powdersuber:
Happened to me too

This just happened to me too! I was concerned that I was getting so many notes in snotes, and they are super important, so I setup my Samsung account and set my note3 to sync the snotes... tonight they all are gone!!! I did the chat on Samsung's site and they said there is no way to retrieve them. I'm going to try the undelete options on my sdcard with Easus Data Recovery, hopefully that directory can be recovered.

Updated: Figured out what happened. I had snote installed on my PC which was syncing as well. The default file location was in "My Documents". I moved the documents location from my internal ssd raid0 to my internal 1tb, but it didn't update in the PC snote application. So I updated the path in options to point to the new docments location, and all of the snote files were in there, and synced back to my samsung account, and then back to my phone.

I got lucky. Going to be putting another backup in place for them now.

I had mine back up to Google

I thought I had mine back upain to Google but I can't find them anywhere... this is was deleting folders from my files I checked that they were empty and was deleting away then all 50 of my notes were gone.

My work depends on those notes. This should not have happened, I am in denial that they are gone. Are they not cached or something... it's after 4 am and I won't get sleep till I figure this out

~Possible Solution~ This Worked For Me! cant hurt to try it :)

Hi everyone, i know this is a old post, but i want to post anyway in case someone runs across this forum as i just had the issue happen a few days ago.

I have a solution that worked for me as I was as frustrated as everybody else sounds.

I hope this works for you too...I may if a update messed with your notes as mine did.

* What I did is go to Application manager / SNote /

then I uninstalled UPDATES

When you reopen S Notes it may act as if you are brand new but don't worry about that,

Open your S Note application/go to all notes/import /from Samsung account

and if your data happens to be somewhere other than your Samsung account be sure to import from there, for instance your Google account, etc...

I got all my 56 notes back :good:

good luck :fingers-crossed:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottjal:
I used to have a problem with the media scanner making duplicate song entries, only one would play and the other was invalid. For some reason that went away and now it adds media once and never scans again, so if I add songs later they never get picked up to be shown in the music player or winamp etc.

I found these tips in another thread here:

This works still but it is a complete PITA because it resets wallpapers, ringtones and all sorts of other things to default and I don't want to have to do this every time I add a song.

How do I fix the media scanner, does it even have logs or something I can look at?

Problem is on a Galaxy Note i717 ICS 4.0.4.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottjal:
It appears that if I restart the phone it will scan again and not create duplicates. Also started using doubletwist and changes that syncs show up after a bit. Might be getting better on its own?

1) wrong forum

2) no you cant get an OTA with nottach (use search feature to find a stock rom)

3) when an update is made available there is a 99% chance someone will post a CWM/TWRP flashable zip within hours/days.

Any blur based ROM can receive updates from Motorola. However, this is

not

a good idea if you have an unlocked bootloader since there is a high risk of hard bricking your device. This happened with the 4.5.141 update, and the same could happen again (assuming we ever get ICS).

The safest option is to wait until an ICS fruit cake is available.

Hello all,

I am trying to return my rooted D3 to stock and wipe it of all custom apps, photos, and user data. I have flashed it a few times, done a factory reset, but I still see user data and custom apps on the internal sd card.

Is there a guide out there to completely unroot and clean your phone?

Thanks in advance,

Its call sbf.. :)

First go to settings about phone and see what android version your on either 5.7.890 or 5.7.906

Then go my thread (link is in my sig) and download the appropriate sbf..

After you sbf it will be just like you were at verizon getting your phone for the first time..

If you turn it on you can press the four corners on the welcome to android setup Page. Starting from the bottom left going clockwise and it just goes to the launcher without signing you in or using data/activating.

Awesome, thanks! That worked and I was able to flash 5.7.890 using the one click.

One issue though. I still see folders for apps I had installed on the phone. They are empty but the folders are still there. Anyone to remove all trace of prior usage?

You should be able to factory reset from settings:privacy and choose the option to format the internal storage. Or you can format internal storage from settings:storage.

[General Accessories] nor-ric:
A few brands, like Samsung and LG, have recently started selling a lineup of MHL monitors, as you can see here for Samsung.

How are these different from an ordinary HDMI monitor?

The only point that I have discovered is that they provide power to the phone, so that you can avoid using the phone charger. But what else?? :confused:
[General Accessories] KingAmir:
They allow a range of inputs like phones, games consoles and a wider range of controllers that are non usb.

In addition to this, the site mentions a wider range of inputs. I cannot vouch for that though.

I think it is just a gimmick or the forced next level in Monitor.

The colours are really true to life on these though. Are you considering getting one?

Hit thanks if this was useful.
[General Accessories] nor-ric:
Well, it appears a gimmick indeed. Phones can be connected to every HDMI monitor (charging feature aside). The same goes for game consoles. When you say non usb controllers what are you referring to?

The "wider range of inputs" that they claim is another inexplicable feature! lol

I'm about getting a new monitor, so I thought these are worth considering too, since they don't cost too much more than an ordinary led monitor.

Well I got up today proud of myself for having made the decision to go ahead and root my AT&T HOX.

I have a 32 gig 10 inch Toshiba Thrive that is rooted running ICS. Then I discover there are several HOX models....and several firmwares.With sweaty palms I swiped one finger down and shaking almost too much to hit ABOUT scrolled on to the bitter truth of 2.20.502.7...

This phone cannot be rooted.

Now I must try to gather myself and use the technique I am lacking the most in.... Patience.

So Fredfly, I'm sure someone here can tell you better than I but as far as I can judge if your bro's firmware is like or higher than mine just take a number and have a seat.

What version of the HOX do you have? The AT&T version? If the firmware is below 2.20, then you have a plethora of methods you can use if you simply look in the dev section. If you're so inclined, you can use the guide that I wrote for the Telus version in my signature. The attached software should work for the AT&T as well as the Telus and Rogers versions as well.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] denversc:
If you got your one X from Rogers then you're fine. First go to htcdev.com to unlock the bootloader. Then flash TWRP recovery (evita version) . Then put the zip file for a custom rom into the sdcard, boot into TWRP recovery, and install it. Then do a factory reset from TWRP and reboot. As a first rom to try, I recommend CleanROM or VIPER XL.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Fredfly:
Hey guys thanks for the advice. I looked at HTC dev and its exactly the same as the one s. I checked my brother's firmware this weekend and its 1.8... I will attempt to root and unlock this weekend. Also thanks for the Rom recommendations. I will probably put viper on his phone as I am familiar with the venom team and know they do great work.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Its not firmware 2.20 and above. Its only firmware 2.20 that is unrootable (at this time). Its all about AT&T. Every other carrier is allowing the bootloader to be unlocked via HTCDev.com.

There have been a few version numbers higher than 2.20 (2.23, 2.29, 2.33). AFAIK, they can all be bootloader unlocked.

If it can't be fixed should I return this to Google based on the USB port is broken which would allow me to fix all the software issues?

Hi, the top 2/3 of my screen has a slight yellow tint. I have a Rogers skyrocket and not at&t. I have this problem running the stock ics rom and the superlite ICS rom. I figure this is a hardware problem but just in case its a software problem I was wondering if anyone had the same problem and possibly got rid of it by flashing a different kernel? Also, im wondering if theres any software that could inrease the white balance of the screen to counteract the effect or something similar (I did find an app that could increase the blue filter but it wasnt much help). Thanks!

If it is happening on either stock or developer rom, then I would highly suspect that it is a hardware issue.

[HTC Titan] sikko10:
I have been lurking on this board for a while now to get some info - and let me say, there is an abundance of it! Anyways, I currently have a Nokia Lumia 900 I have been using for several months, and love it, but I would like the ability to get internet sharing without paying $50 per month for AT&T's 5GB plan. Basically, I have their $30 plan for 3GB, and that is plenty of data for me since I'm on wifi a good portion of the time, it just doesn't allow you to use the internet sharing feature without that $50 plan.

Anyways, my dad also upgraded to the Lumia 900, coming from his HTC Titan. He was having the issue of the disappearing keyboard, and with replies from his Exchange 2003 being truncated. Both of those were fixed with an update, which I learned how to do manually from this board, but after he had upgraded already - so the phone is just collecting dust at this point.

I guess my question is this, given the fact it looks like I can use one of the custom rom's to enable internet sharing on the Titan, but not the Lumia 900 - do you guys think I would be giving up anything significant in going from the Lumia 900 to the Titan I with a custom ROM? It looks like they even have ROMs that enable the Nokia specific features, and now with 7.8 OS. I literally have like 40 tabs open in my browser right now with different threads from XDA, its slightly overwhelming to say the least. Just wondering what the general consensus is around here on the two devices. To me, spec-wise, they seem pretty similar.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Titan] sianto1997:
Sorry.

Let me explain. The HTC Titan has an unlocked bootloader. The Nokia Lumia 900 doens't (yet) has that. An unlocked bootloader means pretty much that you can flash custom roms. But you can't.
[HTC Titan] sikko10:
Thanks for your response. I do understand that aspect, I guess my question is more do you think hardware-wise I am giving up anything significant enough to warrant not switching from the Lumia 900 to the Titan in order to have the ability to get custom ROMs. I do like the feel of the Lumia more, it seems like a more solid device, but if I can get that internet sharing to work with the Titan on AT&T without the $50 plan, I think I can sacrifice a little in aesthetics. Kind of just wanted to get the communities advice here, particularly if anyone has used both devices - which one they would choose - a stock Lumia 900 or a Titan with a custom ROM.
[HTC Titan] nikola92:
Well as i looked here on forum you have about 60% chance of doing the flashing of custom ROMS because a lot people have problems with doing SPL because there is a lot of AT&T Titans all over world, I live here in Serbia and still had the "luck" to run on the AT&T version...
[HTC Titan] tai4de2:
The biggest one is that AT&T's Lumia 900 has LTE. Titan does not have LTE.

Titan's camera is better than Lumia's in terms of picture quality and 'extras' like panorama support. I can never get Lumia's panorama to work as nicely as Titan's. However Lumia has support for wide-screen photos, which Titan lacks.

You would also be giving up Nokia's software suite, some of which has no good or no free equivalent (Drive, Transit, Maps).
