[Android Apps and Games] pguasta:
Hi,

First I hope that this is the correct forum for my request.

I have a RAZR i phone. And I cannot make that the apps in google play (like SDrescan, Media Scanner, etc.) scan my SD Card.

The problem I detected is that all the apps scan "mnt/sdcard", and in my phone that is de internal memory. The SD card is in "mnt/external1".

So my question/request is, there is an app that scans "mnt/sdcard" and "mnt/external1"? or, there ir a wat to make the current apps to algo scans "mnt/external1"?

I dont have any knowledge in programing, so I ask if someone can do that modification or new app.

Many thanks in advance.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonnn:
Problem is JB bootloader is singed, ICS not, so you can not flash ICS bootloader back because it isn't signed. On TF700 ICS and JB bootloader are singed, so you can switch between it. A very dangerous idea will be flash ICS TF700 bootloader on TF300T, but this could work because TF700 users have successfully flashed TF300T JB ROM on they device. Maybe some one with nvflash backup will give a try - this would need to repack the blob.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DieZz:
Guys I'm in over my head on this one. Long story short I needed to restore the efs partition which I backed up with the Galaxy Note 2 toolkit. Right as I choose the option to restore it I get a blue screen, computer restarts and now the phone won't boot any more. I said I shouldn't worry I just need to flash the efs.img back-up... I tried creating an Odin flashable tar file using the toolkit again but the process of flashing it with Odin fails every time... I also tried flashing a stock firmware and clearing the efs using Odin.

If I go into recovery I get: "E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)"

Any help is greatly appreciated...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Download toolkit. Put img in backup folder and restore via toolkit.

Btw where you in recovery while trying ?

Sent From Samsung's Galaxy Note II Using Internet
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DieZz:
No chance

Thank you for your reply but my phone doesn't boot to android... it hangs at the SAMSUNG logo so I cannot use the toolkit which requires that the phone is booted to android with USB debugging on.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mister_Mxyzptlk:
Is the device able to boot into recovery? If it is, boot into CWM, wait a minute or two, and then ADB will be up and running and you can use the toolkit. ADB works in CWM just like it does booted into Android.

If you're still rocking a stock recovery, just flash CWM using ODIN. Then boot into recovery and use the toolkit via ADB.

Let me know if any of this helps.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DieZz:
Still no change

The computer recognized the phone in ADB mode but the toolkit is still prompting me to enable USB debugging and it doesn't detect the phone. Thanks for your reply though...

I went into mounts and storage and tried to mount efs - no luck..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mister_Mxyzptlk:
You may need to reinstall the Samsung mobile device USB driver. Also, make sure you've got root access in ADB. Additionally, you may need to restore your efs backup directly via ADB instead of the toolkit. There's a few threads with tutorials. Regardless, as long as you have an efs backup, you're not totally screwed... yet.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DieZz:
No solution

Thank you all for your replies but I am afraid that the only solution once this problem has happened is to return the phone to service. No matter what I have tried nothing worked so I ended up sending the phone away. If anyone finds themselves in my position my advice is not to waste any time on it...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentdark45:
I had the same issue last night my man - took me HOURS to fix it. In the end the solution was to boot into CWM and enter a few ADB commands on the PC:

Run an SU shell, then enter "mke2fs / dev/block/mmcblk0p3", then "mount-w-t ext4 / dev/block/mmcblk0p3 / efs"

This magically made the EFS partition mountable again. I then restored my EFS image, and wala all was good again.

But yes you are right, this is DAMN hard to fix (I had to trawl the internet for hours). A full wipe / odin stock rom flash / repartition does not solve the issue.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Census Taker:
Hi All, I have this problem after rooting the stock rom and taking a backup nandroid. The intention was to then install Philz safe kernel and take efs backup. But on reboot from CMW, the phone loops as described above and I get the invalid efs message in the OP.

I can boot into CWM recovery and downloaded and flashed the Rom many times and also installed Philz Rom with no success. Tried Samsung service centre who also refuse to touch the phone.

Having found this ADB suggestion I have followed the instructions above but I get the response ' invalid blocks count - dev/block/mmcblk0p3 ' and can go no further.

If anyone has any other ideas that a noobie can try I shall be very grateful. If not I guess it is going to be ebay!

Thanks.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myaslioglu:
maybe a funny question, but you may have missed the spot tho..

Did you mount /efs using cwm and fix the permissions?

If not give it a try. Then use cwm to restore efs. I would suggest philz touch anyways
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcastel:
Thank's for your answer but i can't mount /efs from cwm : i have an error message : "Error mounting /efs!"

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Maybe efs partition is corrupt.

Ask some expert like skip or ketan to help you reformat it properly.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Census Taker:
Thanks but I have the same problem. Attempting to mount /efs gives the response 'Error mounting /efs!'

I agree whole heartedly about Philz Kernel and had wanted this running on this Note 2 having had it on the original Note.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcastel:
I solved half my problem:

by "mke2fs / dev/block/mmcblk0p3" and "mount-w-t ext4 / dev/block/mmcblk0p3 / efs" the phone connected to the pc and recovery by running the cmd windows.

Now the phone starts but I have a black rectangle with the version of my PDA etc ... (see the picture)

Someone can help me please ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Make a efs backup again a duplicate to be safe. Then flash stock rom again.

And also do a cache and dalvik and data wipe.

Hi how did you open a SU shell in the Toolkit - which command did you use or did you download an program to do that?

You have to put the phone in recovery mode (CWM), wait 2min, plug it to your pc, launch cmd, go to your adb folder and now you can use adb !
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jetguy35:
The title says it all. I am just curious if this is possible or if the boards are different on the WiFi only model and the 3g model. I imagine if the boards are the same it should be as easy as installing the 3g module and flashing the ROM that supports 3g?

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
Not quite.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jetguy35:
I'm curious as to why you think that it is not possible? Is the tablet not a computer? It's hard for me to believe that they built a completely different board just for a 3g module. Obviously most people would find it easier to just by the 3g version in the first place but for the people who are adventurous I can't see why not. If you have the exact same chip and the 3g ROM, what would stop anyone? I'll research it and post back.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
I was under the impression that it was a different board.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Troute:
Easier just to buy a separate 3g router, like the ZTC MF60 or a Huawei E586 both come in around the £65 mark.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jetguy35:
I just reviewed a tear down but it is just the WiFi version. Currently searching for a n7 3g tear down so I can compare.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mutedfaith:
This is me talking out of my ass but I would say the issue is not so much about it being impossible but about not being worth the hassle specially there being a 3g option available and affordable. Not only you need the parts, tools and know how to do the modification, you probably would also need someone to whip out some software magic to get the tablet to recognize and use a modification an absolute minority will do.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jetguy35:
I see what you are saying. But there is a 3g ROM available for download that could be flashed. Also, taking a case off is not challenging. Here is the teardown.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
Replacing components on a computer and replacing them on a mobile device are two vastly different things. The components aren't merely plug and play. They're precision soldered, which you can't do by hand.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jetguy35:
It's a good thing I know a thing or 2 about precision ;)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
Lol. Its precision well beyond the scope of what can be done by hand. A typical radio used by Qualcomm has 976 solder points in a 14mm square.

Of course, your basing everything on the assumption that, from day one, Asus had intended the N7 to be a cellular device.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] can teh man:
I wouldn't doubt that Google had planned a 3g device. Its just a matter of whether or not it was taken into account during the design for the original N7 board.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] SteveYorks:
This is probably just a standard feature of android now, but I've just come across it recently after upgrading to a smart TV. It's just so easy now to watch my vids and photo slideshows at a whim on my 50" plasma. Another great use I've discovered for my Note.

How do you "throw" videos to your TV?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Using Allshare
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] flippingout:
Do you have a Samsung TV? The only way I know of to "throw" media via AllShare is with a Sammy TV or using the AllShare dongle connected to the TV.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] hamacting:
So, let's try to understand this... I tried AllShare as a server on my PC, I thought it sucked to I installed Twonky instead.

Can I still get content "pushed" to my (older, Samsung) TV from the tablet?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] SteveYorks:
My TV is a Panasonic 50GT50. I would assume this works on any `smart ` TV as long as it's dlna certified, so that should include all of em.

When looking at pics in my photo gallery I now have an extra button visible on screen because a dlna device is within reach. When I touch that, the photo I'm viewing appears on the TV in a few seconds.

It's the same with videos.

It's great for downloaded HD music videos from YouTube, or my photo slideshows I'm making in Windows movie maker (a great program).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dhd1802:
Works well with a wdtv live.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ahmednabeel:
It can also be thrown to an Xbox consoles that connected to the same Wireless network

As will you can watch youtube vedio from mobile to tv through youtube xbox application install it on xbox and pair your note with it and you will be able to watch the vedios on your mobile youtube on your larger LED
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] demandarin:
This is true. Dlna makes it possible. Works with my Samsung blueray player hooked to My LG t.v. I couldn't get the allshare thing working. Then I discovered the dlna way. Same thing really.

i use BubbleUpnp on my android and XBMC on a RaspberryPi to throw videos, music and Fotos to my TV.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] banderos101:
If you happen to have a decent android phone with hdmi connection to tv, you can uses bubleupnp (both devices), to "throw" stuff and junk, if you dont have anything else.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp&hl=en

With mirrop sender/mirrorop reciever app, you can do the equivalent of allsharecast(with lag), where your able to mirror your android devices, great for pics, vids, slow paced games etc etc etc...........ofcourse, ive not got my hdmi cable yet, so im assuming theirs no issues with connecting phone to tv, and mirror my note 10.1 to tv, via phone?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] vypor87:
I was able to successfully use the imediashare app. Very easy but why is allshare not playing nicely with the ps3? I'd love to use an app that I already have if I can. Anyone else have luck with allshare and ps3?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Riki1kenobi:
Maybe allshare is coded to work between Allshare enabled devices. Maybe they need to exchange a handshake code? Be good to get an allshare app for the ps3 and xbox.

I cannot get imediashare to hook up with the xbox though. In fact I can't get any thing to work with xbox.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] legion1911:
How well does dlna allshare work when looking at a 1080p high profile movie?

If it is perfect for high profile movies I wonder why we can not mirror our tablet screen with dlna.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Riki1kenobi:
I only have one 1080p film on my tab and it looks stunning through my PS3 and Samsung telly. As good as the blu ray copy? Not sure without looking at a side by side comparison I couldn't be certain, it looked good though.

Allshare only puts out 720p, but it still looks good.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Naith32:
Does anyone know how I can 'throw' 1080 content from my Note to a Sammy TV? (it stutters a bit using AllShare)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Riki1kenobi:
Are you sure its not your wifi or router setup? 1080p uses a lot of bandwidth so IF you have a bottleneck anywhere in the setup you will get a choppy transfer.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] davefromohio:
Please let me know how and how you set up the ps3 if it works, thanks
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Riki1kenobi:
Install imediashare app from play store. On the tab go to settings > more settings > media share > nearby devices and tick the file sharing box.

On the PS3 turn go to photo/music/video tab and search for media server. Click on imediashare and you're good to go. Remember the PS3 is setup to only choose whatever media you want. So if you want to view pictures you need to do it through the photo tab, video through the video tab etc.

Imediashare is ace as it allows you to view loads of things through the app.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] kayteck1:
for some time i was using samsung pc share manager to share the stuff from my pc to my dlna tv.

when i got my tablet, it apeared that it can not see the server, so i've installed samsung allshare app and it works like dream now for both tablet, tv and xbox.

i had to install samsung allshare app on my pc for proper integration of the pc and tablet.

just recently i discovered mediahouse pro.

you can use it to play any content from most of dlna servers at your network to almost any client on your network.

i use it to play music from my pc allmedia share server on my phone and also i use my phone or tablet as a remote to play movies from my pc to my dlna tv when i can not find a remote :D. yes, you can do this :).

for playing youtube and other online content i use imediashare.

i think that there are no apps allowing us to stream tablet's screen directly to dlna or allshare clien as samsung has to make a money on samsung cast dongles ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] kkretch:
I was so happy to find this thread because I had know idea that this could be done without having a Samsung Tv. I then installed every free DLNA app from the play store and tested them all.

Some are harder to use and some did not work at all for me.

The one that I liked best is "Pixel-DMS".

I can play 1080p mp4 video, listen to mp3's and watch jpg's as a slide show on my Vizio smart Tv from my the data stored on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1.

So thank's to the OP and all the others that posted there experiences.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Riki1kenobi:
You don't need an app to share from the tab if doing it through the PS3. On setting the dlna share media the tab just shows up as a media server on the PS3.

You still need to follow the PS3 protocol of Photo, video, music through each tab but it works really good. Just watched some Big Bang Theory I had on my SD card and listened to my music and browsed my photos.

Still cannot get it to work with the 360 though. There doesn't seem to be a search for media server faciltity on the 360 anymore. Will keep investigating.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] apristel:
Works with my xbox 360.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Riki1kenobi:
Lmao, Well thanks for letting us know :rolleyes: Any chance you could let the rest of us know how you managed it? Lol
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dtl:
Wow this is cool. downloaded imedaishare, but do not need it. PS3 and sony bd (3 d version) picks it up easily. Also it does not matter for photo, video, or music. click on any of the tables and you get a choice of all three. so i can control all (except ps 3 have not tried yet) with peel.
