[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] tacoman3148:
Hi everyone. Long-time reader, first time poster here.

Well, I've gotten myself in a bit of a jam. My Relay is rooted and has CWM 6.0.1.2 running the stock ROM per one of the awesome devs working on this phone. In a bout of zeal, I found a guide for installing Google Wallet on unsupported devices that involved editing the build.prop file to have the device identify itself as another. I dove in head first... My first mistake was not doing a CWM backup and my second mistake was that I backed up the build.prop file to the internal memory rather than the external SD card (seems pretty inaccessible there). After rebooting, the device black-screened after the Relay 4G splash and can only be brought back up by pulling the battery, though it still gets stuck at startup.

I had a look around and found these very similar threads, but they are for the S3:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1830191

I can also get into CWM and Odin mode, but Odin3 and adb don't see the device for some reason and CWM doesn't appear useful without a backup. From what I've gathered, the easiest way to recover from this is a flashable zip with the stock build.prop file.

Would anyone be able to make one of those or otherwise bail me out? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: If it helps any, I used ES File Explorer to do this, which apparently doesn't do permissions quite right. I'm not sure if it affects this, but I figured I'd throw it in here anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] tacoman3148:
Bumping in desperation here! Can anyone just paste in their build.prop? I'm on UVLJ1 (haven't had time to do the latest update due to root).
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Braccoz:
hmm... you should be able to go into download mode and flash the stock rom to recover the phone i think?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
I think this is the answer. Flashing stock will give you what you need, it can be done through CWM (gee one's flashable zip for instance).

Wipe system/data through the format menu.

I wish I knew what a build.prop was. :P
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Balthasar85:
installed it and rebooted my Samsung Relay and the screen went black. I pressed the power button and nothing happened.

The phone is now officially a paperweight. Also I had root privileges.

Can you help me please, I do not know what to do?:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] bobbylo:
I'm not very good at this also,but...Can you connect your phone to your computer and mount your phone from cwm and get the build.prop file that way?Or maybe do a factory reset?
[LG Optimus 2x] FrostyByte:
Hello. This is my first post. I searched through xda forums for a solution, but without success.

So basically, I flashed a jelly bean rom 4.1.2 on my O2X. When I tried to restore my apps from another app which reads from my sdcard, it said I had no saved files. When I checked my sdcard, I noticed that the mount points have been changed: emmc to sdcard0, and sdcard to sdcard1. So, what my restoring app was reading was my internal sdcard, which didn't have the files.

I did some research and found that jellybean roms don't use the emmc and sdcard, under mnt, for internal and external respectively, but sdcard0 and sdcard1, under storage.

They both still mount just fine in the end, but now the internal is read as external, and the actual external files are just lying there in the file manager. (Well, that's just what I presume is happening. I'm not a pro)

Can someone suggest a work around or a fix to this problem? I want it to be just the way it was before jelly bean in terms of its functionality.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] migof:
LOL! You really think that i have not searhed it?

I searched it a lot, but it only says that has 4.5 gb for the user, but i dont know if this memory is for apps installation or an internal sd!!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fevves:
+1 :good:

Ok, chewed up and ready for quick digestion:

So 8GB version is leaving you with ~4,64GB for W/E you want to put/install there.

16Gb ver. should be ~12,64GB...

It's all clear if you read the specs and know how any smartphone is working.

Even more chewed up and ready to digest faster:

That is the internal system memory available to USER. Said that, it means you can use that potion of internal memory for purposes like storage or installations. If it does not suffice, toss in a 8/16/32gb MicroSD card and store photos/videos/music there thus leaving the internal memory for installations only. Do the same for the various caches etc, and clean up from time to time.

Cheers,

Fevv.

Ok, i don't understand you, or you don't understand me....

Yes, here are the specs for the S3 mini: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i8190_galaxy_s_iii_mini-5033.php

But, here are the specs for the D3 (the phone that i have now): http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_droid_3-4036.php

If you read says that has 16 Gb internal storage.... I will bring you some caps of my phone....

Here you can see my storage memory

View attachment 1845661

It has three storages.... The first is for apps installation (it's the /data partition), the second is to storage of photos, videos, etc (is the /sdcard partition), and the third is same as second (it's hte /sdcard-ext partition)

As you said, i can expand the S3 mini partition with a sd card, so i understand that you are talking about the /sdcard partition and it can be expanded with the /sdcard-ext partition, but i want to know how much is the /data partition size... If you say that i can install 4.65Gb of apk's, it's ok for me, but now i'm confused....

Here you can see the /data partition of my D3, 660Mb used, 348 Mb free, total 1Gb of internal storage for apps.... This is what i want to know...

Thanks...

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fevves:
But I do understand, just you pone a question in a way that seem a bit odd (NHF all the way) thinking all of them are the same when actually they're not :)

Your D3 is like my SGS II (My wife has a SGS III Mini) ;) It has a dedicated system storage, then (USB) internal storage and also expandable external storage, am I right?

See this scr from my phone:

SGS III Mini has only one option available instead system and internal. It's all in one, thus you get something like this (MiscroSD is a secondary storage, and can be used as as internal memory on your D3, but not as a data partition on your D3, with an addition S III Mini can store huge potions of files/game/apk data on that one - like with huge games from the store - like your D3 is storing on SD and not EXT SD. IMHO - this is the way it should be):

and it's that proclamed 8Gb on S III Mini, or better said - what it has left in real time conditions of internal system memory so you simply have to accept the fact you can push it to that limit :) Simply means you have that memory to do whatever you want with it - be it apps/games or media :good:

See this scr from SGS III Mini compared to my SGS II if in need for more :

Fevv.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] anothermiler:
I will preface this question by saying that I'm not an expert in Android development, but this is also not my first time flashing a ROM and I am relatively comfortable with basic ADB commands and such. I try not to get involved in anything too complicated, but I like the control custom ROMs give.

I have an AT&T One X that had (has?) TWRP and ViperXL 3.2.5 on it. I wanted to try out the CM10 nightlies ROM. So I download the latest build and the gapps. Do a backup, do a full wipe, then flash the CM10 zip. In TWRP I get confirmation that it has flashed successfully. So I reboot, but I get nothing. A simple power on does nothing. Holding the power button flashes the back, home, settings buttons for ~10 seconds, then I get the white HTC screen with the red warning text, then nothing. Attempting to boot into recovery with the Power and Vol down button does the same.

What's going on here? I'm going to see if ADB will recognize the device, but I'm not sure what my steps should be to get a working phone back. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
After the back, home, settings buttons blink and the screen turns off, let go wait 3 seconds then press and hold power and volume down. It will go into bootloader. Also, make sure the phone is not plugged in while doing this.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
Make sure you release power after the buttons flash, but hold vol down. That will get you into bootloader.

I suspect you've got the wrong kernel (Sense kernels don't work with asop). Are you s-off? If not, did you flash the CM10 boot.img in fastboot?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] anothermiler:
Thanks!

OK I can get into the bootloader. It looks like S-ON unfortunately, and no I didn't flash the CM10 boot.img. I assume that should take care of the kernel incompatibility?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] anothermiler:
I think that's fixed

Well I think I have everything fixed - I used a tool to flash the boot.img from fastboot and CM now seems to boot correctly. Thanks a lot for the help!

[General Questions and Answers] bookbean:
I am still extremely new to rooting and I have not yet even installed a Rom. However, my SGN10.1 wifi is now rooted. I installed Titanium Backup Pro and I saw that there was an option to backup to Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. I figured that if I wasn't using one of these cloud services for my PC related activities, that I might as well make use of it for my Android related needs.

I further assumed that I might as well make use of the cloud, rather than first taking up storage space on my SD card. So a simple question: Is this a good approach for backing up or is there a good reason why I should also be using the available space on the external SD card?
[General Questions and Answers] Lifehacker7:
Placing them on external SD would be better (along with a cloud backup if you prefer.)

I always do it on SD card itself as it is easy and I don't have to download / upload hundreds of mbs of data to cloud. If you have a good wifi connection and a reliable server, then do it on the cloud itself.

the Mega storage seems to work good. I had trouble on the other ones figuring out how to upload a folder. Not the case with Mega EAZY PEAZY
[General Questions and Answers] bookbean:
Since originally posting my question, I have installed different roms onto my Razr Maxx, as well as my Note 10.1. I have used the ext SD card for nano backup, however with Titanium, the cloud backup isn't so bad. The only other cloud settings that I see are for Dropbox and Google Drive, so I do not see how Mega can be used.

I am not familiar with Mega, but I just did some research about it and based upon what I read, I wouldn't be in a great hurry to use it. I do have plenty of storage with Dropbox (over 50 gb), as well as the availability of other cloud storage services. Then there is always the trusty USB cable to the PC.

I suppose that as long as we can keep our external backups organized, then nowadays it probably doesn't make that much of a difference where things are just as long as they are secure, safe, and reliable. Redundancy is also a great idea. I learned that years ago working for a large banking institution. The internal audit staff walked in unannounced one day and advised me that my department was under an unannounced systems audit and that I had to immediately put my backup systems into operation, which meant retrieving offsite rotating stored disk packs and driving 50 miles to the back up site. Fortunately everything worked! So it's not enough to just backup, you have to test it every so often too.

It only seems to backup some apps if that even. Do I need to do some other settings? Happens on all 3 cloud services.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adytum:
Li ion batteries calibrate themselves, and I think one of the variables that helps compute the battery percentage can change upon restart. Hence the amount of juice in the battery is unaffected, but the calculated percentage may change. This is also why you can sometimes see a sudden drop by three percent, but it can stay at a random percentage for a longer stretch of time.

Hey guys.

Seen this thread and wanted to ask.

I have a 7 day old GT-N7105T and I've charged it right, ya know the first charge to 1% ect and have given a few good full charges.

Now, I'd assume after even one or two charges I should still get a feel for the battery capacity, I'm a week in and I'd say my galaxy nexus lasted longer or the same. I thought it would be a lot better.

Maybe I'm judging too soon but I don't think so. I may have a bad battery.

Right now I'm on 13hr stand by, 30mins calls, 2hr screen time and I'm down to 53%?

Is this normal?

Thanks guys. Just want a second opinion. My friend has one and he easy gets 5hrs screen time and still has juice while having everything on and doing normal stuff. I've turned off everything. All I have is weather every hour and email every hour. That's it basically. I've even turned off all motion and google search and s-voice just to see what the go is.

Thanks in advance guys. :)
