My moms phone is giving her an insufficient storage message when trying to update apps. She is unrooted stock and I live nowhere near her to have a fix of it myself.

She just nights a 16gb card for it too and moved Hey pics and music onto it but still giving the same message.

All my Google efforts just showed threads regarding rooted phones with root only solutions, so is there a fix for this.?

Try backup current apps, and then uninstall this "update app ", install newer version of this "update app "

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themanballs:
Hi, I originally had a boot loop problem for Paranoid Android, so I was recovering the Stock OS for my Nexus 7 32gig wi fi/3g, which I have done before with no problem.

I had done these commands:

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-tilapia-4.18.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

And then, instead of turning it off, I accidentally selected "recover now" with the menu keys.

After than, the phone is completely unresponsive. The phone was at 100% charge plugged into the computer. I have tried holding all combination of buttons all manner of lengths all manner of times and I can't load the boot menu. Also, it doesn't register with windows. It did seem to recognize a couple of times, but windows has said that it doesn't recognize the USB device. I can't seem to re-create that moement.

I'm really annoyed with myself, because I am doing an internship in Cambodia, and this is the only way I can read books. I had read four in the last two weeks. I need my lovely nexus 7 ("don't root it then, idiot").

Does that sound like something that would brick a phone? Could there be some other possibility? should I get a bus to Thailand to try and return it to the store? I know the morality of that is questionable, but jobs are scarce and I have no idea when I can possibly get paid work.

Any of your insights into the matter would be greatly appreciated.

Help me Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope.

Yours Sincerely,

Themanballs.

Hi guys,

Recently I flashed CM10.1 on my GSIII (International) and enjoyed it.

But I dont know why I cannot record video - when I pressed the red circle (record button), nothing happens...

It just doesn't record video! I cannot find any video in the Gallery

However, taking photos works perfectly

I used ES File Explorer and found that there are several tmp files of the video (for example, one of them: VID_20130521_152225.mp4.tmp)

There was also "can't connect to camera" issue and I have solved the problem with the fix mentioned in this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1778764

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] little_frog:
I had used V1.12 V1.14 and V1.17

The area I lived, V1.14 is totally no signal. The signal level of V1.12 very good (4 bars) and is a little bit better than V1.17 (3 - 4 bars), or I can say it's just the same. Some body told me that may be because V1.14 and V1.17 are the tri band version. My current version is V1.17, I think I may down grade it to V1.12

Therefore, I think it's depend on area you used.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ltsune:
Hey folks!

Yes, this is my first post, and yes, it may be in the wrong section. If so, I would kindly ask some moderator to move it to the correct section.

Anyway, let me just get right to it:

I have NO coding experience whatsoever! I have never coded anything but a bit in html when I was 16 or something. I have a good understanding

of Android from a user-end perspective, and same goes for computers and website management - I've just never coded anything.

Now, I would really love to learn how to code applications for Android, as I feel like it would be a great challenge to take upon myself + I have a lot of ideas for apps, which I believe will be fun.

Now, I know that Android runs on Java, so I suppose I should start learning the basics of Java before moving into learning Android development, right?

In my search for great free / somewhat cheap online resources, I've found that "thenewboston .org" has a Java and an Android development section with video guides. I believe I should start with the Java section and then move on to the Android one.

Would you recommend using that site, or should I start somewhere else?

And also, is it correct for me to start diving straight into Java, or is there something I should know beforehand?

Or should I learn any other coding languages?

Please take into consideration that I know no coding language as of right now.

All help is very much appreciated! :fingers-crossed:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewisenerd:
Java is the best option to start with!

All native applications of the android OS are written mainly in Java, which makes it a good option to start with. Also, as you already know some HTML Coding, you might not find it problematic using "XML".

Head over to this link: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2195

You might find it useful to begin with. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ltsune:
First of all, thanks a lot for your reply.

What I take from your answer is, that it would be just fine to start diving right into Java, and also take a look at XML whenever I have extra spare time. Is that correct?

And also, what part of an application is built on/in XML?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewisenerd:
The layout mainly comprises of xml :)

Check any android app's source code. The application's interface mainly is made using xml's.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
Welcome to this world, you'll have fun here for sure :D

Anyway, to your questions:

Yep, you need basic Java knowledge. Any website will be great to get started (actually, if you have a doubt and can't find the solution there, simply use Google. There are so much developers out there, is difficult to find an unanswered doubt).

You can get started with Java directly, you don't need to learn any other programming language. Take in mind that only the syntax changes between languages, the logic behind the programs is identical.

Android apps use Java for its core, and XML for its GUI. Don't worry, Eclipse (and after, Android Studio as well) offers a visual environment to build your GUI, without touch XML directly (of course, you can edit the XML code if you wish, for example, to make a quick change).

Good luck, dude :highfive:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ltsune:
This was a very helpful answer!

You basically answered all my questions, and a few more than I hadn't even written yet.

Thanks for letting me know about the option to edit the GUI directly from Eclipse, which is currently what I use to learn Java.

I've found a lot of great resources here at xda-developers as well, so I'm really looking forward to dive into this now!

Already learned the very basics of creating user inputs etc. (yes, that is a noob talking - I know), and I am thrilled to learn even more :p

[Sony Tablet S] gordo79:
Looking for a quick bit of advise, my local Sony centre has the tab z in stock but I need a quick sale of my 1st gen tab. Looking on eBay they seem to be asking around £200-£250 cex are offering £101. Is it worth the cost and agro of eBay or is Cex's price fair?
[Sony Tablet S] SWFlyerUK:
£200 for the STS on eBay seems a little optimistic., but I may be wrong!

I couldn't get more than £150 for it on there, even in mint condition and no more than £180 for my used XTS.

£100 is a good amount towards the new device. You could always buy the new tablet, list the STS on eBay and see what you get for it. Start the auction at around £170 and lower the price if there's no bids in a few days.

Just my 2$'s.

[General Questions and Answers] randomhkkid:
With the advent of 1080p screens on ~5inch screens I was wondering if there is a way to render games at below native resolution. For example many people are agreed that 720p at ~5inch is already at the limit of pixel perception at normal viewing distances. This could lead to smoother gameplay and a much improved experience at the loss of fairly negligible visual fidelity loss.

But my friend gave me a one settings.apk it work

Please someone help at once..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewisenerd:
Seems like you want to "mod" your ROM?

First of all, which ROM are you using? Get the ROM's "zip" file. In the "zip" file, you will find the "system" folder. Open the "system" folder, and you will find the "app" folder. In the "app" you will get the apk named "Settings.apk".

If you are modding your ROM, it is necessary that you "sign" the apk. Else, it won't work.

Assuming that you are using apktool:

Unpack apk using apktool, do all the editing and stuff.

Open up the original "Settings.apk", and extract the "META-INF" folder and "AndroidManifest.xml" file from it.

Pack the apk using "apktool b Settings"

Now, copy the META-INF and the AndroidManifest.xml files/folders into Settings/build/apk folder and paste it (replace files if necessary)

Then, re-build the apk using "apktool b Settings"

Now, push the app, and apply the permissions correctly. In most cases, it is 644.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodexLink:
Did i do your apktool method an sign and push?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewisenerd:
Yes, without signing, it wouldn't work.

As I said, system apps don't work if they aren't signed properly. And, the method that I use for signing is just "another" method. There are other methods too :) For simplicity, you can use any of the "apk tools" that other developers have created for simplicity. :)

While replacing the files for call record function, as soon as I pasted it in the system folders, my phone hit a reboot. I then tried the zip file instead in CWM but it reboot ed again halfway while booting... I thought maybe the feature isn't compatible and that's why it would be rebooting like this..

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anasid123:
Let me tell you a story. I once brought a Galaxy Note form Flipkart.com . When it arrived, it had features rivalling that of the iPhone 5, but had half the price and a larger screen size at that. I was over the moon. It seemed like nothing could go wrong.

I rooted it the day after it came. Almost miraculously, you had features like dual-boot animation. I, of course, in my inimitable stupidity, forgot to make a Nandroid backup. But who cared ? The device was up and running.

That's when the nightmare started. It just started out as minor blips - Google Play saying that authentication required or sevrver error or offline mode ( whatever the hell that means ) ; Google Talk forever on offline mode ; Gmail not being able to sync. These and more warning signs appeared, but I brushed them aside, thinking that they would be fixed with the passage of time. In retrospect, this was a very stupid thought.

Then the hell started. Galaxy offered a Jelly Bean Update. In my steadfast optimism, I downloaded it and installed it. Nothing changed. Absolutely ****ing NOTHING. My mother's sister, who was Android Development Head, informed me that it was due to some conflict between TouchWiz not being compatible with Android Jelly Bean. Then apparently, since the update was downloaded and not installed, it kept informing me that your update is due, and kept asking me whether I would install it. I, obviously kept saying NO. Some stupid person on androidforums told me to freeze Samsung Updater using Titanium Backup. But, my friends, the worse was yet to start.

As soon as I froze Updater it crashed. I had to force start using Recovery. Then the device wouldn't give any signal and even WiFi stopped working.

I then unfroze Updater, since that was the natural action one would take. It crashed again and on force start it said - " Android Updating, Start Applications... ". There was no signal whatsoever.

Then it seemed like Satan had reserved a special place in the depths of Hell for the Note. Every thirty seconds the Note would crash and give the same message which I listed above. Some person on some random forum suggested moving all the apps from the SD Card to Internal Memory. Well, great suggestion, because whenever I tried to open settings, Note would, very conveniently, crash again.

I tried backing up using ADB. Crash. Factory Reset attempt. Crash. Crossing my fingers. Crash. Just isolating it and keeping it on a bookcase. Crash.Crash all the way.

I've run out of ideas, so from my long post, if you have figured anything that might be of use, don't hesitate to reply
