You can have them on the internal (which is just memory) or real sdcard. But make sure the recovery can see them. Most recoveries work best with Fat32 instead of exFat.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] gsrrr:
Please give us a review of it when you get it. I don't know why so many of these TPU cases have that "S" line on the back. I think it looks cleaner without it.

They are also showing up on Amazon too.

There is a flat black silicon one.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Murasakiii:
Thanks! But I'm actually waiting for a white or colored one. I have dark pockets ranging from either purses or jacket pockets. Would really like to be able to see my phone instantly. This is the style I want, though.

Edit: It seems this style actually has different colors. Is it possible to find just the case rather than with the chargers? I live downtown without a car so it isn't really needed.

Edit2: xD; Nevermind, colored cases are for Sprint version.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gsrrr:
I dislike silicone because they attract so much dust and lint. But I still ordered one because I don't like my phone being "naked" and there isn't a tpu case out that I like.

I emailed diztronic and they told me that they will have one out in a few weeks. Link is below.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
I spoke to the guy a week ago. He said he raised the price so no one orders it cause it doesn't actually fit. He also said when he does get some in stock that fit all he has to do is lower the price.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gsrrr:
Damn, I ordered a Silicone case from one of those buyers and the price is now $50. Guess the case that is coming isn't going to fit. :crying:

EDIT// Yup, they sent me a case for the LS970 and it does not fit (correctly).
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gsrrr:
I've had a bunch of those rubberized plastic snap cases before for my old phone. Most of them were pretty bad quality. I'd stay away from the cheap ones on Ebay because they don't get reviewed by users and you can't tell if they are quality or not.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] braveliquid:
Hi,

I intended to post this question to the [3.Nov.2012][ROM] NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 V1.2 [NativeSD] thread, but not allowed to (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32624318)

Can someone help me redirect the question? Thanks!

First thanks for the great ROM, tytung. It looks great and easy to install.

I have a HD2 and wanted to dual boot WP7 and Android. Found this new method NativeSD and decided to try it. But once I installed the ROM (through MAGLDR 1.13 and Recovery 4Ext 2.2.7), everything works fine, except that the camera app (and other apps) says that it cannot find the external SD card to save the pictures. It does not give me options to save on phone. But since both system and data are on external SD, and that partition is treated as /mnt/sdcard0, I am not sure if I am supposed to have an external SD card from the perspective of Android.

Cannot seem to find similar post with this issue, so I must be doing something wrong with partitioning. Could you help??? Thanks so much! I am inches away from having a great Android JellyBean experience on my HD2.

Thanks!!!

-----------------------------------

Details:

4 partitions on my 16GB SD card:

1) FAT32, 3GB (this is the boot partition, where I installed Recovery 4Ext and through it, installed the boot files in /NativeSD)

2) Ext4, 8GB (this is the system/data partition, where installation put all Android files)

3) Ext4, 2GB (this is current empty, reserved for another ROM that requires two partitions)

4) Other, 2GB (this is a WP7 partition)

I formatted these using Mini Partition Tool on Windows (not via Recovery 4Ext)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dheerajk27:
I think you need to run CHKDSK on your FAT32 partition of the card with fix option, once, using a card reader and computer. Once done, put the card back to your phone and boot to your preferred Native SD rom. Then check whether you applications are able to trace the SD card. Should work, since the same worked for me, when I had a similar issue. Hope that helps.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] braveliquid:
Hi dheerajk27, thanks for your quick reply. Was wondering

1) should Android JB think that I have an external SD?

2) where will this external SD be mapped to? The Fat32 partition? The same Ext4 partition as system & data?

3) what would chkdsk do? I just want to make sure that it doesn't mess up the Win 7 stuff as well.

Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Robbie P:
Hi braveliquid, welcome to the forum.

Did you set all your partitions as primary using minitool?

1. yes

2. depends photos/music => fat part, apps=>ext part

3. not sure either;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] braveliquid:
Thanks for your reply. Upon multiple trial and error, I found out that the logical partition is the culprit. When I have 3 primary (FAT32, Ext4, Ext4), Android can recognize the ext SD card. However, when I have 3 primary and 1 logical (the Win Phone 7 partition is made logical by windows), then Android does not recognize the ext SD card anymore.

Any thought on how I can resolve this? Or else I will have to keep 2 SD cards, one for WP7, and one for Android. Doable, but a bit of a hassle.

Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Robbie P:
use minitool and set your wp7 partition as primary too.

Problem solved.:)

you could use two cards, i am at the moment (I keep spare card in a cellotape pocket on inside of battery cover). You can also dual boot without partitioning see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34009754&postcount=1126 but only really as a backup phone in case wp7 goes wrong and you are away from pc.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] braveliquid:
Thanks Robbie. Yes, I have set the WP7 partition as primary and then it works! I am liking the Android experience (have been using iPhone).

Btw, in WP7, it is asking me to update software (I have a very old WP7 installation, migrated to dual boot in early 2011 i think). Can I just upgrade WP7 like normal (i.e. by connecting to Zune)? Or will that destroy MAGLDR? If that won't work, how can I upgrade WP7 to 7.5 or later 7.8? I cannot use Windows Market Place apparently with the old WP7 OS.

Thanks again!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Robbie P:
I would just flash one of the new wp7.8 roms, your choice which. Ansar's does not seem to be able to use the new wpbackup app at the moment.

With Hd2o and pdaimatejam you can backup your phone and restore apps sms calls etc. Sooo much better for trying out new roms.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Noodile:
Hey guys,

I've had my Mac protected with Wrapsol since i bought it in august. Had the film replaced once under warranty when i was replacing my hard drive. It's a great product, great warranty, and great customer service.

So on black Friday i Purchased my Note 2 as well as a Wrapsol for it. The second i tok the Note 2 ot of the box, i installed the wrapsol. Overall its great. I love it. I usually hate screen protectors. (Hate Zagg for yellowing and grip-ness, hate military shield for marks that are left with your nails, and hated the Moshi antiglare. All were on my S3).

This one i truly love. It was my second experience every with their "Dry application". (the mac is a wet application). Had zero bubbles in the front. Had 3 bubbles in the back that went away after a few hours. everything is protected. Your nails don't leave marks in it. and the film doesn't yellow over time. No marks left in it by the S-pen. No rainbow effect. Also IMO, Smooth as glass, not like the zagg shield. Also, no texture to it and no orange peel. They give you a life-time warranty. Even if you peeled it off yourself cause you installed it incorrectly.

The only thing i didn't like about it were the side protectors. They're a PITA to install, and the edges on them are annoying. so i took them off.

and best of all the film didn't lift when i installed my new Speck candyshell case. (awesome case, but gets scratched way to easily. )

Here are pictures:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sooby77:
Currently have Spigen Ultra-Oleophobic installed. I'm actually quite happy with it because my installation was good, and it is resisting fingerprints very well. But your review of Wrapsol had me want to try it. It seems that Wrapsol is much thicker and would provide better protection for the Note 2's large screen. The Ultra-Oleophonic does scratch a bit with the S-Pen, but it seems that I can wipe the scratches away. :confused:

Anyway, what do you think? Would you recommend a switch to Wrapsol? :laugh:
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] theoner1:
Completely agreed. Sp oleophonic does scratch a bit, not horrible but its there. I'm super careful where I put my phone, always in my front pocket by itself.

Please update this thread whether it produces scratches or not later.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgtoys:
No such thing. The only thing close to a decent stylus is the dagi pen. Yes, its much more expensive, but the normal rubber tipped ones are useless. The Dagi can actually be useful for handwriting and drawing. Trust me, please, I've used them all. The only truly good stylus is the S Pen on the Galaxy Note Tablet and Phones, but it only works on those devices. That's it. Get the Dagi or waste your money on cheap ones, your choice.

Sorry if this is the wrong place;

I'm trying to retrieve a Google account password stored on my phone. I don't want to change it, or go through the lengthy password recovery system (it's a very old account, I can't remember the security questions and the recovery email is long gone).

I read an article about how Google passwords were stored in plain text, in the accounts.db database. Some people said this is still the case as of JB (I'm on ICS).

To test this, I opened the database on my computer but the passwords are not in plain text. Instead, each is a 70-character long string, making it look like some sort of hash -- but I thought that storing passwords as hashes would not work because they cannot be decrypted, so perhaps it's an encoding.

Does anyone know what sort of encoding is used for these? And is it possible to decrypt back to plain text?

Thanks,

Mark
[General Questions and Answers] BleedingIris:
Not sure bro..but the accounts.db doesn't contain your password or so I think

I think it only contains a authentication token..no real password is stored..I think..I know this is the case for 2 step authentication users..but not sure about the rest

If it really is encrypted,then it must be encrypted using some kind of password(which you also do not know.. Google wouldn't be stupid to use the same password for encryption all phone's accounts.db)

However,you could login into your account from the stock browser right?

Could it be used to change passwords?
