And maybe you didn't understand the logic of the question...

A file Explorer will be nice so that you can decide for your self where to store files like e-mail attachments. I'm still recieving Zip file attachments.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Bwyan Benton:
For the amount of time windows phone has been available and still no file explorer...i wouldn't expect one anytime soon. If i recall correctly, its not even possible right now.

Hi All,

I am new to this, so excuse me if i ask a dumb question.

Here goes,

How do i install xap files on the 920. I am in South Africa on the vodacomm network.

[Nokia Lumia 920] tossero:
As far as I know its not possible .

It looks like somebody has understood the logic of windows phone but has not yet understood the logic of windows file explorer.

Weird contradiction of logics on the same topic.

At least give us your logic of the one you understand and someone else will give you in more detail the logic of what you do not understand. :)
[Nokia Lumia 920] BXWolf92:
Though you had a valid point that honestly made me laugh, I find that a file explorer would help in some ways: Renaming files, changing locations, finding email/messaging attachments easier. Renaming files has been a huge issue for me, but I can just do that from my computer at home.

Some people think they should have those features built right into the phone, so you have to understand that they want a file manager.
[Nokia Lumia 920] alodar1:
Hopefully you are just toying with him , with your response. The intent of his response was to indicate that the Windows Phone system has integral plan and purpose in restricting where files, pictures, downloads, etc are stored. This is most likely to insure the integration with Skydrive and its Office apps, etc. This has been in play since the release of Windows Phone 7 2 years ago. Microsoft has not deviated from this. Anyone doing any research about Windows Phone would know this. The response just highlighted that a potential new WP user was asking a question.

A quick look around Windows Phone.com and/or several wiki type sites on the web will help fill in the blanks, and will help you understand what Microsoft will and won't allow access to. Hence, the lack of a file Manager.

If you own Windows 8, you can get a little access into the folder system by connecting your device and using the Windows Explorer to see what is accessible. But you will find access limited to Storage areas and a few other spots like Documents, music, Pictures, videos and Ringtones.

As a reminder, you as an OP should have done a quick search of the forum to bring up this already known situation. Your responder should have reminded you of that, and posted a non sarcastic response..again, as per forum guidelines. Isn't life hard enough without getting into pissing contests over a mobile device app?
[Nokia Lumia 920] questionmark:
Well I'm working with Windows since 1988... There was GEM before then long after got ipad1 android and now wp8. All previous had a file manager...

Now as an example I was downloading a FLAC file via bluetooth

The system just was happy to download the file on the phone...

Now as we know no flac player the file got on the file system somewhere

but I was unable to locate it for deleting it as is is 15 mb of useless data

Now what?

So looked at for a file explorer but nada...

Connecting the phone to the PC only showed the basic stuff

So where did that file ended up?

Surely wp8 is nice fresh what ever you want but common that stuff is sooooo locked up worth than apple.. Surely good for security as praised by some but personally I start to hate this paranoia and philosophy that what you bought is actuality not yours..

Please someone teach me where that file ended up maybe I missed something?
[Nokia Lumia 920] jmghollywood:
This may be of some help. It's not a file manager like on Windows, but you can manage downloads and there is a file manager section. I would post the link, but I'm new. The application is called "getthemall".

Hello,

I don't want to sync anything with Google or Samsung. I have a galaxy note.

I don't have sync enabled but I see a Samsung account folder in the Android browser favourites. There is nothing inside, but how can I remove this folder?

I already uninstalled the Google and Samsung sync applications with titanium backup but the folder is still there.

Regards,

Stevie
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevie123:
I found the solution myself. The same hint how to remove favorites which can't be deleted worked for the folder too.

I deleted the data of the browser. Then all favorites are deleted and when I restart the browser Google tries to connect and place it's folder with favorites. This can be aborted with the back key. Then there shouldn't be a Google folder.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakuki:
Hi forum, this is my first time here. So I will try to keep it short and simple. I bought a mint Nexus 7. The previous owner had it rooted and it was on 4.1.2. I Saw the 4.2 update and tried installing the update over the air. When the device tried restarting, instead of going back to booting normal, it went into this thing called team win recovery project. I have noticed some stuff:

1. It says my device has on OS.

2. Its stuck there in my TWRP thing and I cant access my OS

2. my PC wasnt recognizing the device (I fixed that though by downloading the driver from Asus's website)

So long story short, I just want my device to be back to normal and unrooted. If its possible. Please if anyone can spare me there busy time, I would really appreciate it

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Update your firmware using the thread below. Use the first link under 'Firmware Downloads'. This will update your radio and PRI. Your Hboot will remain the same. Once you've done this you can start flashing whatever JB ROM you wish:D

[HTC One X] reneftw:
Hello.

I found online an One X with broken camera for ~250 euros. The man that is selling the phone says the camera broke after the last OTA update. When he enters the camera application, the image starts having static and it crashes. He has to press the home button and then manually close the camera application. So, does this seems like a software problem or rather a hardware one?

Thanks,

reneftw

can not imagine that this is a hardware problem..maybe there´s simply went something wrong during the ota...but not sure...if it is like i think..this cant be fixed by a reset but with flashing a complete rom /ruu instead of the ota...mmmhhh..not easy...buy or not...

maybe Xperia Sola render things in sub-Native resolution then upscales it?

thus resulting in lower DPI than what should be.

Is there any other information tool to test with because I tried it with other phones and it shows lower ppi than it should be

[HTC One X] Ichin4tor:
Hi !

I've used CyanogenMod 10 for 2 weeks now. Before I installed it, I had done a nandroid backup through Clockworkmod Recovery, to co.e back to the Stock ROM if any problem happened. During these 2 weeks, I would do some updates CM10 was giving us. Then, there's a few minutes ago, I rebooted my phone into CWM and tried to find my old backup (I ain't done any other one, or wipe, or nothing else) and, however, "No files found".

So now I'd like to know, HOW IS IT POSSIBLE ? Is it cause of the daily updates from CM10 sometimes including a change called "6.0.2etc.", which remains me of the CWM version ? I'm really scared I lost it... Now when I look to the new release of CM10, a nightly includes a fix for the error "not recognized backup format type of file" or something like that, should I update and would that resolve my issue ? I'm becoming paranoid, I've got many problems with flashing ROMs and I'm now afraid of updating CM10, cause my CWM is still in 5.8 despite the "6.0.2" changes in the change logs...

What should I do, is my backup still remaining ?

Thanks :)
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
if its really changed the cwm...just flash the older one back...(find in xda) and over a cmd using adb...flash it with

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (the img´s name abc.img)
[HTC One X] Ichin4tor:
Well, actually when I booted into CWM an hour ago, it was in 5.8.4, so it's still the old one... So I wonder if I should update CWM, or updated CM10 which would maybe solve my problem with the backup file fix, but it doesn't completely looks like my issue... I will try anything you suggest in the morning, it's 0:46am in France ^^ One thing's sure, CWM is still in its old 5.8.4 version.

The problem is just I can't see my backup anymore, why and how can I retrieve it ? :/

Thanks overall :)
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
did you have access to pc and sd of hox..? if look under clockworkmod if the backup is really in..!?!
[HTC One X] Ichin4tor:
What is pc ? And I have access to SD from my files explorer app, I think it's the same with CWM.

Where is the nandroid backup normally located ? On SD ?
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
pc=personal computer... :) windows...linux...etc.....

normal under sd / clockworkmod/backup
[HTC One X] Ichin4tor:
Well there's no more clockworkmod folder... and I thought one couldn't say PC in English, an american girl had told me that, sorry, thanks for that x)

So I no longer have any backup at all xD Then I can do a new one right now, and update CM10 then CWM... I still have the stock ROM with the right hboot on my PC so I'll just have to flash it again if I need it :/ Didn't know we could access the backup folder and keep it on the computer :eek:

Thank you very much ^^

Ever had a problem with your Android smartphone that application is only downloading to the phone storage and you can not move it to the MicroSD card?

Here is a quick solution. The following solution will only work on a rooted phone.

Please download and install ES File Explorer.

Enter it, Go to Menu>Settings>Root Settings Check “Root Explorer” and accept both the ES prompt and SU prompt.

Then check Mount File System

Return to ES Main screen, Long press the first Favorites icon unless the path will turn to /

Go to /system/etc and press vold.fstab

Find there the following lines:

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard

emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-sd.0/mmc_host/mmc0

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard2 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-sd.1/mmc_host/mmc1

Replace the sdcard with sdcard2 and sdcard2 with sdcard so that it will look like this:

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard2 emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-sd.0/mmc_host/mmc0

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-sd.1/mmc_host/mmc1

Now press the Menu button and press Save.

Restart your phone and now the “Phone Storage” is your MicroSD card and most applications will be downloaded to it.

install apps to external sd card,any android 4.2.1

My bro bought a micromax canvas 2 plus running 4.2.1 and asked me toh swap the sd cards..

At first i thought it would be easy since there are so many posts regarding this..but all the methods failed..

The twist is..there are 2 files in the system/etc folder..

1.Vold.fstab

2.Vold.fstab.nand

So..replacing 0 with 1 in the vold.fstab file doesnot do the trick..

After many days of searching every where, i finally found a way..

1.Root your phone

Use root explorer( or any other file manager with root access)

2.navigate to system/ etc

3.now open the vold.fstab file as text

4.make a backup of the original file

Change the lines:

dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 emmc@fat/devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.0/mmc_host

dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard1auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_host

To

dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_host

dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard0 emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.0/mmc_host

In vold.fstab.nand change sdcard0 to sdcard1

Then reboot your phone

PLEASE NOTE: the above change will NOT show your external as internal..or vise versa

But all those large apps and games will get installed in external sd card..

Make the default write disk 'external sd' from settings
