[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xxsicknessxx:
Please correct me if im wrong in my thinking. Its normal if I flash from 4.2 (for a day or to) then flash back using a nandroid to 4.1 to have a left over 0folder sitting in my main storage SDcard0?

So when im back on 4.1 I have Sdcard0/0 thats where it ends for me as of now. I flash back and forth all the time. I also get legacy folders but as of yet there always emty. The 0folders left over (mind you im on 4.1) im only testing 4.2 but the left over folder 0 does contain a lot of folders though only data is located in the duplicate android folder.

Questions so being that im on 4.1.2 again what do I do with the left over folders? Up till now I just use windows copy them over and let all the folders merge. Seems to work most the time but It can cause issues.... there gotta be better way? How come I get left over crap in a 0 folder every dang time I flash back from 4.2 to 4.1

Thats normal? Oh BTW im on newest TWRP installed from GOO. I am running Jellybam 4.1.2 I don't delete folders just merge them back into my other folders but maybe I shouldn't do this?

I dunno when im on 4.2 I don't have any issues except that I think this concept is some stupid guys idea of trying way way to hard to be smart. Smoked a little ot much weed before he came to work ya know?

Please

1. What do we do about 0 doler / legacy folder when we flash back to 4.1

2. Whats normal... what should we except when flashing from 4.1 to 4.2 assuming we have newest TWRP or CWM

3. Anything else you think you should add

4. whats your home launcher :P

peace
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DelphinusMinor:
I use Apex Launcher but you don't see it in the images. I think you are referring to FlashFXP which is a file manager I use to move files and folders between my PC and my phone, and to move files and folders between diff folders on the device itself by connecting to my phone in two instances.

It's my understanding the "0" folders are designated for the different user accounts.

If you go to JB 4.2. and then go back to 4.1 I believe the files from your 4.2 install remain intact(Or at least the file structure). No data is actually wiped unless you intentionally do so.

Now, I am just someone who flashes casually and I wouldn't consider myself an expert. I am confident in my skills, just not at a point where I can say anything with serious conviction. So your mileage may vary. :D

I actually found out which set of folders were the ones in use, and I ended up doing a nandroid, and then deleting everything else on my phone to be safe. I have rebooted several times and haven't had any issues. This was a few days ago.

Remember too, if you restore from an older nandroid from a prior firmware version it will roll back whatever kernal you currently have, etc. It basically brings your phone to the exact state it was in when you did the backup.

Good luck with whatever you do! :cyclops:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Peteragent5:
AHHHHHHH All my precious data on internal sdcard GONE. All because of the stupid linked legacy folder! :mad: I was just trying to delete 1 duplicated (or so I thought) mp3 file, then Google had to come into the action and screw everything over!

:mad: :mad: :mad:

I'm done! I'm done with all this BS. I can't even sleep properly! Just let me enjoy my summer :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tritonesub:
If you just deleted one file... how did literally all of your data get erased?

I... what
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Peteragent5:
I deleted the undetectable, sneaky, linked legacy/emulated folder because it was in /sdcard. So it portrayed itself as another folder, but in it's entirety was the /sdcard itself masquerading as emulated/legacy causing ones mind to think it is an expendable piece of foolery. Linked folder(/sdcard->emulated) contains emulated folder which links sdcard, but it was placed in sdcard so it's entire existence is invalid. Inception eh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tomh1979:
thank you for this, finally i found where to hunt down the folders taking up space on the storage and delete that ****, now i have more room on the internal memory.:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haybill:
Could you give us all a pointer as to which folders you found safe to delete--I'm sure that we could all do with getting that bit of extra storage??

upgrade to 4.2.2

when i upgrate from 4.1 to 4.2 i lost almost 4 gig out of my 16.

how to correct that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sevensaints:
me too...

i have the same problem with you.

now i am struggling to basically have some space in my phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hubert.stijns@gmail.com:
Protected area

Either making a backup or flashing a new rom make the protected area increase by around 1.5 gig.

While rooted, goto /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/...

Make some clean-up.

I am using ES3 for navigation, action, delete etc...

Look there also at "download" to make some more cleaning.

In my case I run all my apps and data and still have 9 gig available out of 16.

I use extensively the cloud.

This is valid for my GT-P7510 but it should be similar for your gear.

Cheers.

I just put an address into my Note 2 and when it started to give me directions, it spoke the names of the streets to turn at...So it might be a bug that you're experiencing. Are you running a rom? Also check to see if there is any updates. I would also try going into settings>application manager>maps and clear data and cache. Then give it a try

I went 4.5 days without a reboot on either my Wingray or Toro. Came to work this morning and both have rebooted a couple times. I've been noticing it happening alot at work lately. It does not seem to affect iOS devices or Blackberries, just Androids.

Can a Wi-Fi access point cause a device to reboot? Anyone ever experience this? Any solutions or suggustions?

Keep in mind its an access point provided, managed, and secured by work, so I can't get to it to reboot it, change the settings, etc., but I can call the IT staff and make very specific suggustions...
[Galaxy S III General] Badelhas:
Hello guys

I have a Samsung galaxy s3 I9300 for a couple of months now and can't seem to get more than 9mbits down and 3mbits up in hspa+ (H+) speed tests. I am beginning to think it is a modem limitation.

What about you?

Cheers
[Galaxy S III General] AtroX_cc:
Well, I had 6.7 down and 3.1 up; i guess it really depends on the career and the server u make the test. And also about how busy is the closest relay and how busy is it...there are many variables here.
[Galaxy S III General] prking07:
Ive had up to 14mbs down and 4.5mbs up.
[Galaxy S III General] Badelhas:
I know but what I want to know is if it's possible to get more than 10mbits or if it's just not possible.
[Galaxy S III General] Badelhas:
@prking07

Thanks, that is good to know. :)

By the way, do you guys know if there is any real world noticeable difference between browsing at 10mbits in hspa+ and 50mbits LTE?
[Galaxy S III General] AtroX_cc:
I also want to know that, so i can't hardly wait to get 4G in my country soon :)
[Galaxy S III General] IroniX2:
With mine i get often 10mbits down and 2.5 up

I would love to get some more speed, but I'm uncertain if it's a limitation of the phone or a cap of the service provider.

Perhaps someone can shed some light on the radio in the I9300 and what it's capable of.
[Galaxy S III General] Mopral:
S3 i9300 is capable of 21.6 Mbps

But most people will never reach that speed as it depends on carrier/relay/...
[Galaxy S III General] paintball23456:
i got 19.11mbs the other day!

average i get 14/15

lowest is around 2mbs
[Galaxy S III General] KMino:
No speed difference but for downloads/4k ultra high definition video etc I would suspect.

Not sure if 'latency' is improved or not (doubt it) Like ADSL1 has a lower latency than ADSL2. I suspect it's in a similar situation, damn physics...
[Galaxy S III General] Badelhas:
Really?! I thought 21mbits was merely theoretical and that no one was capable of getting more than15mbits or something like that.

It was with the i9300 international version?
[Galaxy S III General] paintball23456:
yep, gti 9300 s3. my area has amazing hspa+ speeds but at that speed, you burn through data like a rocket.
[Galaxy S III General] mocassino:

On HSPA+ my top score was just over 10Mbps in London.... My mate is on Vodafone and never got even close to 10Mbps so I don't believe you.. :D

Now I'm using Three on DC-HSPA+ (up to 42Mbps) and best so far was over 18Mbps.... (screenshot)

I've seen ppl getting up to 20Mbps on Three DC... but never as fast on normal HSPA+...

[Galaxy S III General] stiggy2012:
In theory a single HSPA+ link is good for 21Mbps but in reality you'll never seen more than 15Mbps peak, and around 10Mbps average.

HSPA+ is usually almost precisely half the speed of DC-HSDPA when stationary. This is because all DC-HSDPA actually is, is two simultaneous HSPA+ connections at the same time.

The awesome thing with DC-HSDPA though is that the two connections can often be to different geographically disperse base stations, which means speeds are a lot more consistent when moving.
[Galaxy S III General] Quimicax:
Connection speed is over carrier limited HSDP 1,8 / 3,6 / 7,2 /14,4 Mbps some people show H+ in your phone but never have 21Mpbs+ this speed is used for 4G Moden for laptop in many cases not all highly dependent on carrier..!!

first time my country realese H+ 21Mpbs+ Unlock speed for all phone all test show 17Mpbs+ avarage speed.. only one day.! normal day my speed is over 7+ in night is close to 10+
[Galaxy S III General] Badelhas:
Very well explained, thanks ;)

Do you believe that there is any real world noticeable difference between simply browsing at 10mbits in hspa + or at 21dc-hsdpa+, or even 42mbits LTE?
[Galaxy S III General] DjeMBeY:
Yeah! I know all about it and that's why I don't believe if someone says "I've got 19.50Mbps on HSPA+" (21Mbps) !! :D

Not to many places atm where you can get speeds 20Mbps+ on 3G tho.... ;)
[Galaxy S III General] :
I just formatted recently so don't have much results. But those should be two different towers. There are two Rogers towers in my town. The faster result is my average speed on the east tower the slower is on the western tower....
[Galaxy S III General] Badelhas:
Strange, the fastest speed has the highest latency...
[Galaxy S III General] 23Six:
Generally 4-6mbps. Have hit 10-15 multiple times though in town centre.

to check HW rev number goto settings>About

Mostly you should have a qualcomm and not DLOAD

to check that , power off phone, hold vol up..plug it into the USB, check what you got...if its asks to format disk say NO!

If it doesnt ask for disk format check driver installed...mostly a DLOAD

Some days ago I tried to upgrade my phone to the latest official ICS using ODIN as KIES

was always giving disconnection errors before finishing the upgrade.

Finally I got my phone stuck at the download mode with an error message and a yellow warning

triangle.

I thought I had a bricked phone, but fortunately I managed to recover it using an old

official ROM. The problems is that now it doesn´t recognize any inserted simcard.

The current installed software versions are:

Android 2.3.5

Base band: T989UVKID

Kernel version: 2.6.35.11

Compilation number: GINGERBREAD.UVKID
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
one you can call tmobile and have your sim card registered and that sometimes fixes it. Or you can try to factory reset this way dial *2767*3855# this should return everything to original factory settings which should allow you to use your sim card. Back up phone first because this will wipe everything!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] albatrozzz:
Hello,

Thank you for the response. The process worked as expected (the format process... etc etc), however I am still getting the warning message, as you can see in the attached picture
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jrosetto:
My guess is the kernel never got transfered over when using ODIN. I would get KIES and have it upgrade the phone to ICS and see if the problem goes away. Any time I had this issue it was kernel related.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Is the sim damaged in any way? Have you tried another sim after formatting yet? If this doesnt work tmobile should link it to phone for you. Forgot one more thing try flashing a new radio modem like UVLE1 or UVLH1 and see what happens.

That was not a well thought-out response. I found it (your post and the replies) funny, and I laughed. You are being overly defensive lol.

But let's talk about your statement/sarcasm a bit.

Not knowing something like this? Totally fine. It's not like you don't know that you are not supposed to kill other people or anything--that would not be fine at all.

Not knowing and calling someone "greedy as heck"? Not okay. Being laughed at is the price you have to be willing to be paying if you were to criticize someone. You must be selfish enough to think that you can say whatever you want and say "you can't know everything" if you were wrong without ever being criticized/laughed at. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. If you criticize and you are wrong, you get criticized.

That said, I wasn't criticizing or anything. You are overly defensive and your sarcastic statement is just wrong.
