[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Are you sure you're looking in the right place for the external sd?I know the path has changed and can vary. What file explorer are you using?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ickybot:
I'm using ES File Explorer to look in /sdcard/external_sd. A change in path is the first thing I suspected but I didn't see any similarly named folders.

I installed Asro file manager and can now see the files in "My Files 2". Now I've just thought to check the path of the external sd card images that Gallery found and it is /storage/extSdCard/DCIM.....

I guess /storage the new location and ES File Explorer doesn't see it because it doesn't support viewing back to root? Is the folder that used to port to the external card, "external_sd" dead and worth deleting now?

Why won't my phone connect as an MTP device anymore?

I'm now able to direct Titanium backup to my backup folder in the external SD card (I just had to navigate back to root to find the /storage folder). Next problem is that I can't seem to restore my call logs.

Thanks for any help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dsmboost:
ES File Explorer does support root, you have to enable it in the settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
Try hitting the Favorite button and tap on the /storage/sdcard1 or anything under there.

Do not go to HOME then external_sd.

I like to customise and all. But I dint want ti lose the proformance aspect of the stock rom.

I been cinsidering flashing to cleanrom 5.6 and adding a few themes to change the whole coloring scheme.

I was curious on some other opinions to as just trying out a complete custom rom and having to deal with the bugs or errors that may come along or just do the cleanrom 5.6 ? What's really the difference?

I've read that my phone has only 2 frequencys 900 and 2100 for 3g. While edge have all 4 (800, 900 1900 2100). Other versions of butterfly have fool pack for 3G. How do you think is it possible to unlock those two frequencys for my phone, using another version of radio for example, or any other way.

If you wanna play with Radio Software, would need S-Off anyways first
[HTC Butterfly] sublimethe:
Its already done (my dev. is rooted, by now, is it mean, that S-Off gotten?)
[HTC Butterfly] toolhas4degrees:
no, s-off is security mode off (with s-off you can flash your boot in recovery and change the splash screen and radio's) this has only been obtained for the japenese butterfly kddi.

As for the frequencies, I believe that they are staight connected to the chip set and won't be changed by a radio switch out

(In the future always look at the frequencies of your carrier and the frequencies of the phone you want before you buy it)(I have done this before, learned the hard way)
[HTC Butterfly] sublimethe:
In my case the chose was between microSD slot and those frequencies, so i took device considering to unlock those bands in the future, and i think its possible, because they wont do another chip for that, its more simple to lock 2 bands.
[HTC Butterfly] toolhas4degrees:
Idk I had an htc sensation 4g from t mobile with only 2 bands( they make others that work on att) could not unlock bands to use the 3g on att, have a go at it (I couldn't get it to work other devs said it was the chip set)
[HTC One X+] mr_breaks:
hello guys

i wanted to ask you if anyone hears the bad bluetooth sound quality from the htc one x+.

maybe i'm just to audiophile, but the sound on (good) bluetooth speakers sound terrible.

i read alot about it and found out a few things:

-i heard the issue is in the so called "bluetooth bitpool setting". manufacturers always this setting to low, so there are no problems with the connectivity, but the sound quality is bad. so the sound quality of the stock rom is really, really bad. i'm talking about listening music. specially the high frequencies are sharp and crashing...it sounds like a very bad mp3 file.

now there are custom rom's with fixed bitpool settings. i tried out a few ones and there is actually just one rom that haven't this bad sound:

cyanogen mod 10. all the oder rom's have this sound problem: cyanogenmod 10.1, android revolution hd 6.2 and stock...

do you know this problem? would love to use more rom's with good sound :)
[HTC One X+] badtlc:
I also have this issue when listening to BT audio music in my car. I haven't tried any ROMs yet to compare.

From my brief amount of research it seems to be an issue that only pops up between specific hardware. My phone sounds great in some other cars but not in mine while the HOX and iPhone5 sound great in my car.
[HTC One X+] badtlc:
Just an update. I am running Elegancia's latest ATT release and it appears to have fixed the problem for now.
[HTC One X+] badtlc:
Just another update.

It appears audio is perfect upon initial pairing but after disconnecting the audio distortion comes back the next time the phone is automatically paired.

Why would it sound fine the first time you pair a device and then sound different the next time it connects automatically?
[HTC One X+] joey-pagan:
If you're experiencing this on the Elegancia ROM, let Steve know about this.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriki200:
Hi,

I got stuck in a boot loop after flashing my sgs with stock firmware, I had CyanogenMod 9.0 instalated before flashing to stock, and it worked fine. if i install CyanogenMod again it works perfectly fine, but everytime I try ti flash it to stock I end up with a boot loop. I've tried wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition and it doesn't work. And when I flash stock firmware the first time it restarts it goes to recovery mode. Please help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamer94:
Ynt: [Q] Boot loop after flashing stock firmware

What was the firmware you flashed on Odin? If that was a single-file firmware,then this is pretty normal!

While you want to switch your android base version(froyo-gb/gb-ics), you should flash a firmware that MUST contain PBL+SBL(Primary and secondary Bootloaders.) .Long story short, flash a firmware which one has 3 files(PDA,PHONE,CSC). Also put 512pit file to PIT section in Odin3.Make sure re-partition is checked.Then flash and i guarantee that it'll work flawless mate!

Hi all , i have bought an old galaxy nexus and now i see a symbol in the status bar when i use dead pixel test and some symbol of app which i don't know name . Does anyone know how to fix it ?? i really disappointed about this . Thanks for reading and sorry for my bad english
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
Your post doesn't make sense to me. Is your problem:

- burn in of the soft buttons and/or status bar?

- a dead pixel in the status bar?

- an icon in the status bar which you don't recognize?

Perhaps post a screenshot to clarify.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoangtungst:
-and

-no dead pixel in my status bar

-an icon in the status bar appears when i use "dead pixel test" or disable status bar
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoangtungst:
Nobody knows ????
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akatosh:
No you can't fix it as far as I know, those pixels you see which are different (my case when the screen is black) result from the decay of the amoled screen and 'death' of the LEDs. You can try to replace the entire screen or if you somehow still have your warranty send it in for repair to Samsung and hope that they send you a new one.

[Chromebooks] Quinny899:
[Guide][ARM now supported] Android development/debugging on ChromeOS - ADB & fastboot

What you need to know before we begin:

ChromeOS (Or Chromium OS if you installed it on a non-chromebook) is based on Unix, and you can access a terminal with button combinations. This part of the guide is easy, but if I can get apt-get working, that's where it gets really complex.

What you'll need

A computer running ChromeOS/Chromium OS

An internet connection on it, or the files on a USB drive (and you to copy them to Downloads)

A little Linux knowledge

Some patience

1.) Download the correct files for system:

ChromeOS/ChromiumOS on an x86 based PC

ChromeOS on an ARM based PC

2.) When the zip has downloaded, extract it so both the adb and fastboot files are in the Downloads folder

3.) It's now time to access the terminal mode. It might be a good idea to get this guide on a phone or some other device so you don't have to switch out at any time.

If you're using a chromebook or an official chromeOS build, you need to access developer mode. Note: this will wipe all your data for security reasons. Full info is here: Chromium Project: Developer mode

4.) Press Ctrl-Alt-F2 on your keyboard, and the whole screen will be a terminal. Read the info at the top, and then login

NOTE: If you're using Chromium OS vanilla builds, the username and password are as follows:

User: chronos
Pass: facepunch

5.) You now have a localhost terminal, with no root permissions.

6.) Run this code, to locate the location of your Downloads folder:

ls /home

7.) Mount the filesystem as follows:

mount -o remount,rw /

8.) Using the name other than "root" and "user", run these commands:

cp /home/<name>/user/Downloads/adb /sbin/adb

For example, the Chromium one would be:

cp /home/chronos/user/Downloads/adb /sbin/adb

Repeat for Fastboot (replace "adb" with "fastboot" without the quotes)

9.) Test that it has worked by running:

adb

It should result in adb working

10.) You're done, adb and fastboot should work. You might need to reboot in some cases for it to work fully

11.) For more stuff, like Java and ant, wait a while until I work out how to get apt-get installed from dpkg

Whenever I go to check my path I get this response:

Help?
[Chromebooks] Quinny899:
That is perfectly normal, every Linux based thing says no file or directory after the path to my knowledge
[Chromebooks] awacker89:
And so it seems! Now it appears that any adb command returns a "Permission denied" message. Ideas?

Update: Same response for fastboot commands.
[Chromebooks] Quinny899:
Try this:

cd /home/chronos/user/Downloads/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools
chmod 755 adb
chmod 755 fastboot

Then exit back to the login screen on the terminal, login again and try running adb
[Chromebooks] awacker89:
Still no dice :(

I'm starting to lose hope. I just keep getting "permission denied."

I thought maybe trying this would do the trick but still no response.

sudo ./adb devices

P.S. Guess I should mention that running just adb returns command not found, so I've been using ./adb. Maybe I just don't know what the hell I'm doing but I just can't get it to work.

Is there a specific branch that is required to be on in chromeos in order for terminal to act correctly? I never get any chance to login once i get into the "crosh" terminal.
[Chromebooks] crford:
Instead of doing

cat $PATH

you should do

echo $PATH

The cat command is trying to concatenate a file with the name of your full path, which obviously doesn't exist. echo tells you the value of the $PATH variable, which is what you're actually trying to do.
[Chromebooks] jambamkin:
I was trying to get this to work on my Chromebook Samsung Series 5 550

Furst thing I noticed was the absence of an f2 key - tried a usb keyboard no joy

I assume what I am trying to launch is Shell which can only be accessed with a Chrome OS device in developer mode. I really want to get this working so I will try activating developer mode and report back.

Update:

So Developer Mode resets and wipes your device (doh!) back to Step 1

Update 2: (Dev Mode activated function key labelled as "->" works as f2 and launches shell successfully"

Has anyone got this working? I noticed that the folder coming out of the SDK zip is called "sdk" but all the commands listed in the guide use "android-sdk-linux"

I used "sdk" and just get the Permission Denied issue even after chmod on adb
[Chromebooks] imtoomuch:
Will this work on the Samsung Series 3 with the ARM processor?
[Chromebooks] Quinny899:
Supposedly pulling the adb binary from an android device (/system/bin/adb) and using that would work. Don't know about fastboot though
[Chromebooks] evoschecter:
I had the same problems. And just stopped trying about 2 days of trying to figure it out.
[Chromebooks] awacker89:
I was able to find a version of adb compiled for ARM but it was from an older version which made it a no go on my Nexus 4 (4.2.2 requires updated adb to work with the new security enhancements built in).
[Chromebooks] MontAlbert:
I tried it on my Series 5 550 chromebook. Can't seem to get it to work.

I do all the commands and it shows up in echo $PATH but then when i try adb anything it says permission denied. I do the chmod 755 and still permission denied.

i tried to exit back to the login and then the folder wasn't in the echo path anymore. adb not working either. I tried rebooting chromebook and it wasnt there either.
[Chromebooks] moocow1452:
Would it be cheating to get it running with crouton? Because I did get that done.
[Chromebooks] Hipcatjack:
yeah i've been having the same issue with my samsung 5 series chromebook. "permission denied" and all that. But on the fun side, i learned if you want to really make your chromebook bug-out; type cat adb whilst in /platform-tools.

I'm gonna buy a gs3 but I was wondering if samsung has solved the burn in problem because on my old GSII I had to replace the screen after only 1 year...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dav_991:
It's not a samsung problem, every screen will burn in eventually. The lifetime depends of how you use it.

I dunno the specific word for it, but certain pixels are brighter than others, black being brighter than grey, thus they

I'll leave the tech stuff to someone more knowledeable, but what I do know is that it's not burn-in. It's a falsely used term for the actual burn-in CRT displays faced.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johan81:
It is a degradation discrepancy because of asynchronous color degradation. In OLED they use organic material what is the main culprit. The blue OLED pixels degrade about 2-3 times faster than the other colors, which causes the often seen blueish tint in certain areas. OLED degradation is also much worse than current plasma degradation (with plasma it is also not burn-in but degradation).

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
you should probably stop open your eyes as well , because ,physiologically , human eyes will be , (in this thread , i would like to use word "degradation" ) will be degradated as well when passes ages
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johan81:
Well, to be honest, the OLED tech as it is used in current devices is way worse when talking about the burn-in like effects than most other applied techs. With LCD and Plasma (where plasma theoretically has the short end of the stick) the effects are practically non perceptible while with OLED it is a whole other story. The biggest noticeable effect is the blueish tint some parts of the screen can get because of certain bars (like the notification bar) or other long-term used (semi)-static objects.

Though, Samsung has applied some kind of a fix for the notification bar problem, namely making that bar grey in stead of solid black (which helps smooth-en the degradation process). Not many people seem to be aware of the reason and are all changing the bar back to black (AC/DC!!! ;) ) which is not that good of a choice in the AMOLED supplied SGS3's.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernandogcuellar:

Stop *****ing, it will degrade like any screen, yes it won't last you 5 years perfectly, expected lifetime is really 2 years max if you are a manic that uses his phone 10 hours a day with 100% brightness, expect degradation to start in a month that way.

Pretty satified with my screen, about 8 hours of screen on average daily, 70% brightness and still perfect.
