I hard bricked my phone even I uploaded wrong pre loader my A6 was not booting, nor charging, even not detected by computer, I thought I have lost my phone, luckily it was under warranty, I went to Q shop gave them my phone and they repaired it, wow thanks to Qmobile there is a way those who have still warranty left can have the phone back in working condition, goto Qmobile they will do.

I will request you if anyone can please provide the dump of Qmobile A6 reason i bricked my phone i didnt find the dump of A6 stock rom and used wrong preloader of Micromax A68.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wildchild6:
Hello.

Tried to search this, but no luck. Is there a way/mod to connect S III as a mass strorage device? Now the options are Media Device or Camera. I dont like either and it feels really slow this way.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
I think you can use a program called SGS3 Easy UMS or something like that - but it will only work for SD and when UMS mode is active the phone can not access the SD. Also there is a 'trick' where you sometimes need to stop the media scanner for the program to get exclusive access.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wildchild6:
Okay, thanks. I remember someone make this kind of mod to SGS II, but its too bad theres not one awaible on III.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
But is there any reason why this very basic feature is not available on this phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Yes, because the same card is used for the OS, and "internal SD" as we know it is just a folder on it. So it cannot be mounted in UMS because that would mean unmounting the OS
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
Let's forget for a moment about the internal storage. Let's focus on the uSD.

My recovery (CWM 6.0.2.7 + PhilZ Touch 3) can let me see the uSD as USB mass storage.

What would it be the difficulty to do the same under all these ROMs?:confused:

How can a user space application (SGS3 Easy UMS) circumvent an underlying system limitation?:confused::confused:

I would like just to understand, not to criticize, of course!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
I don't know why the external SD cannot be mounted as UMS right out of the box. Probably because they didn't want to use different standarts at the same time - MTP for internal, UMS for external
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
That's among the most puzzling questions for this otherwise wonderful smartphone. NOne seems to know what's the technical difficulty.

In the beginning I thought it could be a HW limitation. Then my recovery just wiped this doubt out.

"They" who? The base OS is either by Samsung or by some Android community (like CyanogenMod) that seems to be unrelated to the Easy UMS author.

It looks like this feature has been just left behind ... Even CM v10.1 has it for all phone I've used so far. All but SGS3!:confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Yeah, not just recovery, but easy ums too.

"they" meaning Google.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
Hmmm ... do you mean that with "dual storage" device Google code is not contemplating the possibility to provide access to the uSD as a USB mass storage, while doing it with single storage devices?

My old Sensation XE running CM 10.1 was working fine with no need of any extra software ...

This seems to be not less than weird!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
I'm saying that they didn't want to have two different standards at the same time - MTP and UMS, as that could be confusing for some users, so they left it for the devs. That's just pure speculation.

They started doing that pretty recently, hence your Sensation has UMS built-in.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
It looks like this is something they do only with dual storage devices. CM v10.1-nightly on the Sensation works fine.

Honestly, I don't like it. The userland app delivers lower transfer speeds.

And, most important, it doesn't work any more with my car stereo as it used to do with a single storage device.

I personally think this is a great mistake done by Google or whoever else.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
AFAIK, Sensation doesn't have this new method of storage allocation, that's why it has UMS.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
I've found this (I have no windows at home).

It sheds more light on this topic.

Maybe I'm badly wrong, but my idea is that devs just went completely bulls*it with UMS. My not-so-humble opinion.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
That's exactly what I was saying, but explained better
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
Not exactly. SGS3 does have a uSD, but it doesn't work like that.

Only MTP or PTP are available ...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Yes, it says "phones up until now", which is what I said. This doesn't include SGS3
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
If I understood well, Easy UMS simply makes some changes to the default system configuration in order to restore the "standard" USB mass storage profile for the uSD alone.

If this is the case (please provide any feedback, pleeease) I'd push AOSP for restoring it by default.

I've found a nice "mtpfs" package that would allow me to (kind of) mount the storage. But this is a workaround.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
It is very simple to understand - your recovery knows it will never WRITE to uSD at the same time as the UMS program (which exposes the PHYSICAL card as a block device). In a normal ROM that assumption would be fatal and you would soon have fatal results, so instead MTP/PTP was chosen - which exposes the FILE SYSTEM instead of the BLOCK DEVICE.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
So somehow Easy UMS circumvents those restrictions ...

In other cases you got the warning that some applications could possibly not work properly because of multiple concurrent accesses.

But now the situation is much more clear, indeed.

I got a LG p500 Android device and i want to root it. the device is on stock ROM android 2.3.3 V20e. should I use SuperOneClick? and if so, how can I reboot my phone after the SuperOneClick Procedure was finished? if ill power off my device and then turn it back on it will break it? or this is "reboot"?

[General Questions and Answers] madware.net84.net:
Root your zte groove- cricket

I just successfully rooted my zte groove last night.

Step one: download ministroII.apk and poot.apk to sd card.

Step two: Must do it --> Format your phone. Backup contacts etc if you want.

Step three: install both ministroII and poot and start poot.

Step four: Download the additional libraries.

Step five: CRITICAL : restart phone. If you dont poot will give error.

Step six: upon startup run poot, and hit "click here to poot"

Phone will restart upon success. Congrats your now rooted. There is no custom recovery so be careful if you mess up your phone you will not be able to reflash a rom.

Hi all!

I'm going to flash CWM recovery on Samsung galaxy mini (stock 2.3.4) and I'd like to ask a couple of questions.

I'm going to follow this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1529863

Is it okay?

1. Do I have to root the device before flashing CWM with odin? Phone isn't rooted now, it's completely stock.

2. Can I install ANY custom rom with CWM? eg. CM9 or 10?

3. I want to make sure that if i want to install a custom rom, first I flash CWM with odin, then custom rom with CWM. Do i have to do something else?

I'm asking these questions because I don't want to brick my phone on my first time flashing something.. ;) I want to be sure.

Better to root the phone before installing clockwork mod

once clockwork mod is install u can install any custom rom just u need to download that rom put it sd card and follow the tutorial given below each rom (most of them have Same tutorial)

u need to flash through odin only once just to root or else when u phone gets bricked
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] aamojj_:
Okay, thanks very much for your help!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
if you want to be on stock then root first before flashing CWM as after flashing CWM you may not be able to root your phone.

If you want to flash custom rom then there's no need to root your phone.

Just boot into cwm wipe data

flash rom

again wipe data and then reboot

remember that wiping data is needed before and after the flashing process.

Pls help me.

Hmm, in LectureNotes you can select the size of the hover so it shouldn't be impossible to change in other apps as well like a launcher.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] HUYI:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] arbantas:
Screencast

Yeah, it does in LectureNotes.

I currently working with Screencast creating math tutorial and post it on youtube. But I think the student would be confuse if they couldn't see the hover. There is a problem when recording on LectureNote, it's lagging (paused somehow). So I chose S-Note (built-in app on galaxy note 10.1), my problem is just the tiny hover. There is no hover setting in S-Note :(
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Abneycat:
The pen pointer has changed in the 4.1.1 (something) rom I'm using on my n8010, it's a small light blue ring with a hole in the center that matches the s pen's tip. I find that it's nicer than the dot, but I didn't see any new options to change the icon. It would be great to have some more customization, especially for using drawing apps.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Axel_:
I see your problem. I use YouTube lectures from Kahn academy and similar videos all the time, some have a pointer and even though I prefer that most videos doesn't and it's usually no problems if the teacher is switching colors and tell where he's writing. Some courses are better than others, math is imo pretty straightforward compared to other classes where you have to make and edit large flowcharts etc. But that of course depending on what level of math we're talking about.

A way around your problem would be not to use any recording tool but to actually record the screen itself. Ie, just like you take a screenshot but like a video instead. This however, usually requires root and that might not be something you want to if it's not your tablet. I also think there are programs to record your voice simultaneously too, something I don't think SNote is doing.

In the notebook overview, select menu and import (next to add new note). Import a image file or a PDF with your background and select what type of note you want it to be. At least if you select a image file, the image is background for every page you add in that note.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axel_:
Note however, that if you manually change the background in the app for the given note you will lose the background image and I'm not quite sure how to insert it again in a existing note.

Edit: I found that in the new SNote version you can add your own image as a background where you change background by just clicking on the symbol in the upper right corner. The previous way was the only way to do it in the previous version as far as I know though, and since you're asking I assume you still have that on your tablet.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nobody850:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axel_:
Then you have the precious version, and in that one I don't think there's any way to add a background without adding it as a picture.

You can't update it manually as far as I know, it's just a part of the JellyBean update that you probably soon will get. You can of course search for those kind of updates manually in settings.

The only icon that looks like that on my snote is the "insert object" one, but that doesnt change the background like you described above... unless I misunderstood what you wrote:confused:

Just looked at your post history and it appears our snote build number is different, even though we are both on JB. Mine is running the official ota from the other week, I guess yours is not?

Cheers
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axel_:
The button doesn't set the background, it's letting you select an image to have as background and of course whether it should be for every page or just the one page you have selected. Mine is opening the gallery or the Dropbox folder, if your doesn't I don't think it's working.

I have the official UK ota from a couple of weeks ago, however I don't think it's necessary the same between regions and especially not if your is 4.1.2 instead of the 4.1.1 I'm running. Other than that, I have no idea why your version aren't the same as mine. But considering how badly mine is working as you might have seen in my previous posts, you have nothing to be envious about :P
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhd1802:
Found the icon :D, though its buried in the settings "other settings > change background > gallery (mountain icon)..."

Rechecked my version number, and we do have the same one. I was looking at the wrong snote!!!!! Lol

Other than palm zooming, which is p*ssing me off, so far so good for me....
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axel_:
Haha, I'm not sure where else to look for such a setting but It's a good thing you found it anyway!

Speaking of which, what is this small SNote file anyway? If that's the actual update that is causing so much troubles and removing it would be a solution, that can't be to hard even if it's requiring rooting the device?

I agree, that's really annoying and basically enough to make it useless for note taking in class where the tempo is fast. But other than that, the problems with the functions for recognizing different things you draw makes it not as out standing as it once were. It's a good thing there's LectureNotes and that the developer is so active to get things working a 100% and improving the application constantly. I can't wait to get the customizable drawing tools!

By the way, I called the samsung support in Sweden once again and the guy I speaked to today was sure that the only way to get the old SNote back was to do a factory reset after which he was very clear that doing any of the things I mentioned like rooting the device etc will destroy any warranty what so ever. But naah, I'll try again tomorrow, maybe even to the service center.

Anyone that has been more successful in their contact with Samsung? (sorry if this is considered OT)
