[LG Optimus G Pro] MyXDADevName:
Is there an easy way to transfer contacts from my iphone to the OGP?

The ATT store guy said because I had a lot of mail accounts that their little machine would choke on it for several hours. I did a few contacts then froze for like 20 minutes while I was in the store.

I'm not really fond of Google's privacy policies, so I am loathe to use Google contacts....but apparently in 2013, switching contacts between phones is still difficult (sarcasm) for basic office programs like thunderbird or outlook.

I was able to save a vcard file from itunes and export it, but when I imported it into my phone, many of the names were missing and most of the notes fields were non-existant. I have about 200 contacts and manually entering all fo them would be a gigantic pain.

Anyone have any ideas?

Why is this still such a problem?
[LG Optimus G Pro] lessthanzach:
Just use bump. Free in the store. I often use it when our machine has troubles.

[LG Optimus G Pro] MyXDADevName:
Actually just tried bump....it imported my contacts, but also left out the note fields....and whats worse....when I try to merge multiple duplicates, In the LG it shows as one contact, but each duplicate info is still retained within the contact (if that makes sense). For instance, my mom now has 3 entries under the one contact. Is there a way to actually merge all of the info and eliminate the duplicate info? WHY IS THIS SO COMPLICATED?

grrrrrr.

my contact automatically transfer from iphone to g pro when sync with same account using in iphone to g pro !!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] ReggieSmith:
The easy way is to use google, but you "loathe" them so you are stuck.

Been using google for years and never had an issue with them myself. Plus, it keeps me from the issue you are having now.

Pick your poison...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tmaclax013:
So I'm messing around with some methods to put apps on to the sd card but my first step is to find the apps. I'm using simple apps like Jtpack Joyride and Wind-Up knight, but I can't seem to find where the files are located. I found the app and the details using ASTRO but doing a full search in ASTRO and the stock file manager I can't find anything. Any information would be a great help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] krazykevin76:
A lot of apps are under device, look in /sdcard/Android/data. But some apps make other folders to store data in. Like Zedge, its in the above folder but stores data under /sdcard/Zedge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alkspo:
apps install to /data/app in internal memory, not on sdcard, unless its installes to sdcard, in which case its located in sdcard/androidsecure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tmaclax013:
Is there any app that can tell me the location of certain files because I'm using Jetpack Joyride as the "guinea pig" but I cant find the "com.halfbrick..." file anywhere on my device
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tmaclax013:
Bueller, bueller? I'm just trying to find out how to find these app files, if someone could even just tell me where jetpack joyride installs to that would be great

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Android_Noob_2k12:
As many if you know, the HTC hardware keys are not the most reliable. So my question is if the software keys found on devices like the nexus can be enabled on the HTC one by adjusting some data on the phone itself. I don't want to have to flash anything.

This may not be the first thread asking this. If there is a preexisting thread please just point me to it. I have see one though, so I will be surprised if there is.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Pure+:

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] altanimi:
Well, I know that you can mess around with the build.prop on an AOSP-based ROM like CM10.1 to get software keys. All you need is root and a build.prop editor. Adding the following line:

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

Enables the softkeys. You'd have to devote a new line to it, unless you find the line sitting around in the first place.

Granted, doing so on previous versions of HTC Sense has never worked, but it might be worth a try with Sense 5. Still, you might want to follow standard procedure and make a backup of your build.prop before messing around with it. You can also make a backup of your ROM. There's nothing to flash in this instance unless something goes horribly, horribly wrong.

Now on the other hand, you could also take a look in the framework-res.apk. IIRC, the framework is different on HTC devices, but it might have changed. This method requires you to extract and decompile the apk and modify it, then push it back onto your phone. Since you don't want to flash anything, I suggest you ignore everything about the framework-res.apk and try the build.prop edit.

Hi Guys,

My USB isn't working properly anymore - as a result it won't charge and I can't connect it to the computer. I have a new s3 and I want to copy the entire image from one device to another.

From what I can gather if I'm able to do CWM backup to an external SD card I can then simply load this back onto my device.

My trouble is I can't seem to preform a full back up onto the external SD card from CWM recovery menu - any ideas would be appreciated!
[General Questions and Answers] SohamJ:
what error are you getting while making a backup from cwm ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cj10488:
Well I pulled the trigger today and upgraded to the s4. Pretty much identical to the S3 with minor differences. See ya all on the flip side.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] VikingoRMCF:
SVDO is the only reason why I'm skipping to the next release, hopefully they'll add it back. But also because it's not that impressive.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cas8180:
Its actually radically different. Software eh maybe not so much but hardware yup major upgrade.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GuestK00145:
You should have waited a little bit longer and got the note 3. I think it might look something like this since it's supposed to have a flexible display.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TheSocalGuy79:
The only thing holding me back getting the S4 is USB mass storage. Not sure why Samsung does not allow that.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cas8180:
You can always just download SD card mount lite from the store its free and basically does the same thing...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mussi96:
Rumors say that it's benchmarks are lower Sg s4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cj10488:
Benchmarks are double that of the S3. Battery is slightly better. My only complaint about the s4 is that sSamsung bloated the software so much that only 8gb is available on a fresh device. After removing bloat I was able to get it to about 9.5gb but that's still not much.

I only got the s4 because my daughter needed a new phone and I wasn't going to pay for another s3 when I can pay a little more for the s4 and pass down the s3 to her. I will still be around the s3 forum as there is 2 of them in the family.

As for the note if I am not wanting something that huge. Might as well carry a laptop or a tablet and put on Skype or something similar

Im a truck driver and access to a computer that has administrative privledge is hard to come by, is it possible?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: rooting

You don't need a computer to get root, it's not a requirement.

You need to download an app from the play store called Mobile Odin, with that you

can odin flash the required file to get root as well as flash the required cwm zip file

which is required to get root in the galaxy S4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roxicodine:
Thank you. (:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] roxicodine:
It says im required to be rooted to use the app
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] whytechapel_x:
Yes, i'm pretty sure you're gonna need a computer to root. I don't even think mobile odin is compatible with our phone yet. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] guitarplayerone:
Hello all,

So after the nth drop, my note has a crack in the upper left corner of the screen. Not an issue yet, but I can foresee it delaminating eventually.

I have found the screen assembly on fleabay for ~$180.

it's this the cheapest price available or is there a cheaper one somewhere? I imagine these eBay sellers must be running a significant profit margin.

Thanks in advance,

Roman
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] letakomahieu:
Sell your note and keep 180 $ and add it together and buy a new phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] comscier:
You can buy a second hand note with $250...

So, yeah, just sell it (maybe hard), and just buy a new phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] guitarplayerone:
Maybe. Is there a member on this board who has superbricked their phone and wants to sell it? I would pay about 100 bucks for the screen, as long as there are no scratches.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ibutton:
It is possible to replace just the glass...

There are many videos on Youtube for the S3.. I did the same with my Note :)
[One (M7) Accessories] chrisngrod:

This is an authentic case that was purchased from their website. I might purchase some from the known counterfeit sites to see if there is a difference as there were with the Spigen products I purchased.

My wife absolutely loves this case. The design can definitely appeal to those that like the Military / industrial look.

The price point is ~$35. This is the same price you can expect to pay for most mid level protection cases. I consider mid level being those that allow the phone to be laid down on every side without the device touching a service. Many are dual layer to absorb impact. High level cases would be the Otterbox Defender, Trident Kraken, Lifeproof, etc.

A long time ago (about 1.5 years) I encrypted my Asus TF101 as soon as it got the ICS update from Asus. I only used a numerical key (no alphabetic characters).

Unfortunately, my tablet is broken now. It won't turn on.

I have a 2-year warranty for my tablet, but I am afraid to send it off for repairs. I don't want those people to be able to access my files. Is it possible that the technicians decrypt my data?

OR, if they give me a refurb back, then fix the table and sell it as refurb: would a technically capable owner be able to decrypt it?

What if they sell it as parts and the storage is sold to someone who can attempt to decrypt the contents? Could that happen?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aliante:
If the question is: "Can they do it?"

The answer is: "Nobody really knows it for sure, but we cannot exclude such possibility"

If the question is: "Will they do it?"

The answer is "Probably not"

The repair service labs get paid by the number of products which are fixed, therefore they cannot waste time messing around with other people data...

If you value the security of your data more than the cost of a new tablet, you should take a drilling machine and drill some holes where the tablet memory is located. Then buy a new tablet... :)

*PRIVATE SPACE

is a private place to keep your SMS and calls. You need to add the private number to the contacts, we will move the SMS and call from the system to here. You need to set a password (which is used to open this function). You can also create several spaces for different contacts.​

*IMAGE LOCKER

is a function to protect important pictures (private photos, business image and so on). You need to set a password (which is used to open this function). This function will encrypt the source files physically, so even the others get the copy from the SD card, they will not be able to see it either.​
