[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rob116:
Hi there,

I've gone through the forums extensively, can't seem to find any help with this. I'm running a Paranoid Android ROM (CM10) on an SGSIII. Everywhere I look, I'm told that I should be able to find my pinned music from Google Play Music at Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache, but after pinning albums, I cannot find them there (using Root Explorer and Astro). I'm trying to set this up to move these files to my external sd card using a script a found here, but I can't do that until I figure out exactly where my music is being downloaded to! Anyways, if anyone has run into this problem and figured out the answer, their help would be greatly appreciated.

This whole business of figuring out the play music stuff is really quite disappointing - it should be easier to do things like download the music to your external card.

Thanks.

ok I am sure allot of us are getting frustrated with the lack of market support for apps due to the Screen resolution, or whatever reason... but what are some apps that are not supported by the play store that work fine... and also ones that crash or dont function properly

some apps you can DL on amazon appstore

works when sideloaded..

Xbox xmart glass

Cod:Elite

Modern Combat 4:Zero hour- the TB file is only 11mb... you need to let it download the 2gig of program files on first load but works great

doesn't work properly/ crashes

Angrybirds star wars (free)--- paid HD version is supported

Shadowgun THD --- invalid device ;( Bummer

SHADOWGUN DEADZONE update has been fixed...no more pink characters

I haven't had this issue at all, almost all apps on the market work fine for me. I was even able to install the XDA App for Tablets directly from the Market (it works without a hitch). It makes me interested in sideloading some apps from my Prime, given the DNA does have a very high res display. Will post results.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
So, I bought a HTC One X on AT&T when it launched in June(?). Anyway, I don't have an upgrade until 2014. I did fall in love with the Note 2 though, I seriously want one. Any ideas on how to get an early upgrade?

So far, here are my issues that I would tell the service representative:

•The One X is locked down. It's my own device and AT&T is preventing me from taking advantage of development.

•I get constant errors and reboots, even after a factory reset

•HTC and/or AT&T has failed to distribute timely software updates. International users of this phone have had the latest software for days now, and US users are stuck with a locked down phone and old software

•The performance of the phone has degraded over time

•Everyone in my family gets terrible reception, we've been customers for 12 years and are considering leaving AT&T due to how terrible the service has gotten.

Of course, my phone is unlocked, OCed, UVed, and all of that. I just want a damn Note 2.

Anyone have suggestions?

I hope to join this crowd soon, thanks!

I'm going to be calling them first thing tomorrow morning, but if anyone else has any ideas throw them here!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrhaley30705:
Let's see. Your under contract now. Want a Note 2.

1) Buy off contract and keep the HoX as a backup.

2) Buy off contract and sell hox to offset cost.

3) Buy off contract and hope you can sell a kidney on Ebay or Craigslist to cover the cost.

4) But off contract and.......

I think you see where I'm going. Any attempt to excuse yourself from your current contract is purely unethical.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
I just want one early upgrade. I've never asked them for one before in all of the 12 years we've been giving them money for their mediocre network.

Worst comes to worst, I'll just sell the HOXL, sell this old Infuse I have laying around, and get it no-contract.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrhaley30705:
Oh, early upgrade. That's only an extra $100 to the contract price, if I'm not mistaken.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
Hmm, that's manageable if they do it. The issue is that my next upgrade is in 2014, I've had the HOXL for almost 6 months now, so I'm nowhere near my upgrade hah. It's worth asking them about though, that's for sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lord_Kaizer:
Add another line,get the phone,freeze/suspend the unuse line for 6 months for $8 recurring then after 6 months reactivate it but with a cheap flip phone this time that doesn't require data for $15 a month.Im on t-mobile & thats how i got it ,i think At&t should have something similar ?

As the other thread to which I linked this one demonstrates, it doesn't hurt to ask, nicely. Making things up/lying is unethical -- trying to work something out with your phone vendor is just business, and they obviously subscribe to some budging on their part as being acceptable.

Good luck getting your Note 2, OP. I love mine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] x2h:
try tell AT&T this and they will probably consider your request. my impression is they are pretty flexible. competition is tough these days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Phlip00ws6:
They will do an early upgrade for 399 no problem, but getting it for 299 will take some ass kissing. Tell them you just can't afford 399, they'll come down.

Either way, its worth it. This phone is a beast.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
UPDATE:

So, I called them up. I got in touch with a hot Russian sales rep, she had the sexiest voice in the world. Naturally, I flirted with her. Got her number from a personal call-back, as well as a Facebook link lol.

She connected me to a supervisor, it disconnected. I called back, got another rep, she denied me rights to speak to a supervisor so I cursed her out and ultimately got a supervisor on the phone. Without any hesitation, he said he would process the upgrade, waive the upgrade fee, add free shipping, and match Amazon's price of $199. Oh and I got a $100 credit to my account too. So, got a GN2 for $100!

My basis of argument was that I've been a customer for 11 years, and I've seen the service go from bad to worse. I used the latest Consumer Reports article ranking AT&T last as an enforcement method. I also told them that I'm disappointed with the lack of software updates on the HOXL, the locked bootloader preventing me from developing (we all know it's unlocked already though), and the fact that instead of remedying the issues, HTC just released the One X+ and the HOXL adopters were left dead in the water. I told them I'd rather just go to Verizon, which was ranked #1.

Epic win?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] funnycreature:
I want to use the same argument. But I'll be marching into the store today since I've been in contact with our business rep already and he referred me to the local store agent. Wish me luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
Let us know how it goes!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] funnycreature:
110% no-go through the store. Only way to upgrade early would be to use another person's upgrade. Trying to get this route now but then I will insist on the discounted price (upfront since discounts to the company bill don't help me).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
I think you should escalate it to a supervisor, once you reach that level they generally don't question you and just process the upgrade.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] funnycreature:
I was talking to the manager, I think. I'll contact the business account manager again.

EDIT: OK, I sent an email to the account manager again referring to the Consumer Report survey and stating that "I am disappointed to say the least". Which I am...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] powerwagon:
Lol...that complaint defies logic. If service sucks so bad then why would you accept a new phone to stay on the sucky service?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrhaley30705:
I need to correct my statement. It's $325 MINUS $10 a month for the months into the contract, not plus $10 for each month remaining
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Phlip00ws6:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh1521:
Usually my battery life is great, but 2 days ago the N7 was dead in the morning, whereas it was fully charged in the evening. I usually get 2-3% battery loss overnight, so this was very unusual. I let it charge while off for a while, then turned it on because I needed to use it. Then let it charge for 6h while assuming it was sleeping. Well in 6h it went from 6% to only 21% charge. I looked at battery usage, and mediaserver is listed as using 87% of the battery. That is probably the reason why it's charging so slowly - and actually if I use it while plugged in the battery charge goes down.

I googled a bit for mediaserver battery usage and found a few pointers, but none of these seem to apply or work for me. I deleted all media files from the N7 (not that I had more than a few pictures to begin with), emptied all browser cache, I formatted the cache partition from recovery, made sure that all account syncing is turned off. I don't use any of the prime culprits for keeping mediaserver busy (dropbox, social networking apps, youtube, skype etc.). I killed as many background processes as I could etc.

Still mediaserver continues to show up as using over 80% of the battery, and charging is slow as molasses. I'm out of ideas.

There is no SD card. The Nexus 7 does not have external storage, only internal memory. No expansion slot.

Do you have any casual games? I know games like the tribez like to keep your tablet awake for no apparent reason.

As for losing charge while plugged in, are you using the stock cable?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh1521:
I do have a few games, but none of them is new. I haven't installed anything new for the past 2 months.

For charging I use the original charger and cable. The only way I could get the battery to 100% was to turn the N7 off and charge it in the off state. When I turn it back on, the battery drain is about 1% per minute. The battery gets to zero in less than 2h. Mediaserver still hovers around 85-85% usage.

I tried using startup manager to block a few system services such as media storage, gallery etc. from loading automatically - but startup manager doesn't function properly and those services get started anyway.

I was having this untill I did the following, go into settings - google - click on your account - this will show all your synced apps, I killed all of them except for Chrome and g mail. Secondly I went into settings - apps - all - click on every app there and clear the cache. This total cured it, I am on 95% after about 10hrs of just web searching and idle, I have never had this from day one!

If this doesn't work the surefire fix is to format /system and /data and reinstall your rom then all your apps from the Play Store. Don't just use a backup because that will just cause whatever it is to be causing the same problem again

Hello everyone. I am successfully rooted with GAPPS and everything installed. I really *really* want to use NOVA Launcher (which I have installed fine and is functioning correctly) however I cannot open the Kindle app. I know in order to use it you must update it to the latest version, which works until you reboot your kindle. I however don't want to do this. I want to keep using the 'Books' tab from the default launcher. I like everything it gives me so I really want to just stick with it. That is the only thing keeping me from making NOVA my default launcher. Is there a way I can find it and put it in nova?

Hi,

I would like to share with you my new app. In few words... this app let you move Android folder (which usually contains app/game data) to external SD.

ROOT and BUSYBOX required!!!!!

How does it work? It's simple. It's a binder that binds Android folder from ext to int SD, all what you have to do is:

Move Android folder from internal to external SD (automatic in the future)

Install my app

Open app

Check "Bind Android folder blablabal" ;)

Click Save

Reboot phone

I moved the Android folder which contain all the data to my SD card and run the app, checked the box and restart my phone.

But when I run those games, it ask me to download all the data again. And even the fancy widgets can't detect the skins which downloaded earlier.

Any advice?

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] if4ct0r:
I think I might know what the issue is. Once you move the folder into the sdcard, and the use the app to bind the folder. If you then delete the Android folder from the internal sd, all stuff gets deleted from the extSdCard as well. Once you bind the two folders, I think whatever is in one automatically is in the other one as well. I maybe speaking n00bishly here but that is what I observed.

Maybe the person for whom this is not working deleted the Android folder from the internal sdcard after he used the app. Thats why the files got removed from the extSDcard as well.

I think a working way would be to copy the data to ext sdcard first, delete from the internal, then use the app. Although from what little use I experienced was that whatever data is coming in after using the app is present in both locations. I maybe wrong though, maybe I'm using it wrongly. :) Please correct me if I'm using it wrongly.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] QBANIN:
Yes. you're right :) I'm gonna make some of these steps automatic in the next release :)
