[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tranh2:
Hey all,

How do I access my internal storage of my HTC One X (viper rom installed)? I use to have a HTC sensation and that was easy. Plug it in select storage and the drive popped up on my desktop or my computer. WIth this one it seems different. I never really noticed as most of my pics just went to dropbox and I never really needed to connect to the phone to grab anything. But now that I do its not the same as my sensation anymore. When I plug it in I see the a screen popup on the phone which has an option to connect to PC. I select that and a drive pops up on my computer that just shows some htc sync manager software and nothing else. I search some threads and google and tried suggestions like turning on/off debugging with no luck. Just the same htc sync manager shows up.

What am I missing?

Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
It should show up in "My Computer" as an external drive. Does it not?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tranh2:
Nope...just a camera symbol shows up that says HTC One X. There's nothing in that folder/drive either other than sometime HTC Syncmanager shows up.

I had this issue before, I had to format my SD card in TWRP.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tranh2:
SD Card on phone??? I don't have one in mine...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Yes you do. It's built in. That's the internal storage, it's still SD whether it's internet or external.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tranh2:
I see...we're talking same thing then...so you had to format...I was hoping it wouldn't have to come to that. I'll keep using dropbox until a solution arises. What's strange is my friend has same phone but his is running stock HTC software and is not rooted or any tinkering has been done. He has the same issue as me...any solution for people running stock ROM?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
If he's running stock he's either not mounting it or it's on JB and it's an MTP device which shows up but not as a normal hard drive.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tranh2:
Ok that's it. He's running JB and when he first connected it windows was trying to install MTP drivers but failed. So does that mean he can't access it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Not until he installs the MTP drivers.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Try uninstalling HTC Sync, then re-installing. I think this will prompt the MTP drivers to be installed again.

USB mode was changed to MTP mode as of Jellybean. Doesn't behave completely the same as mass storage mode. But once the MTP drivers are installed, you will still be able to move files back and forth to the PC.

Yep, checking texts and yep, BAM...Snatched and sprint.

Police report or Tracing did nothing.

Anyone know of cases that also have chains?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] D3_:
The official Samsung protective case has a slot for a lanyard, but I doubt it'd be strong enough to withstand it being snatched from your hands (or you might be left with a case and no phone)

I think some of the aluminium bumper cases have lanyard slots and they'd be a much safer bet for something like this. If I'm mistaken about the lanyard slot you could also insert one between the headphone port and the 2nd microphone, but that might cause issues with noise cancellation.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
I think a lanyard with the official sammy case will stop a snatched and grab.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] wase4711:
we'll have concealed carry here is a few more days, so that will stop some a-hole from stealing your stuff...hard to believe this is the only state in the country where you still cant...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Whiplashh:
If you have a strong enough lanyard, just find a case that works with it. Make sure it is a tough case and it will be strong enough to stay and not break or at least make the snatcher think it isn't worth it to take one.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] apallohadas:
Bit of a sidetrack, but regarding the 'carry a gun' thing, no. Showing a gun on your hip doesn't scare away the really motivated criminals.

It makes you target #1.

And a good video to go along with the info:

[YOUTUBE]8QjZY3WiO9s[/YOUTUBE]

Ignore the comments because as usual, on Youtube they're half ignorant and half truthful and half bat-poop insane and half of all phrases using "half" are made up percentages.

This might be a good off-topic conversation so as not to derail the current thread...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] HKSpeed:
That's terrible about your phone getting stolen. Over the weekend I saw this on the news (see link below) about thieves stealing phones and selling them at the mall. I never heard or seen these kiosks before.

http://video.msnbc.msn.com/nightly-news/52009921

I wonder if something like a Sling Grip or Fly Grip would reduce the chances of someone taking the phone out of your hands. It's not full proof, but it could hinder the thief.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] BlueHarford:
you cant in MD. there trying to change it but its going to take forever
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Nefariouss:
This video doesn't even talk about the visible presence of a gun being a crime deterrent. Unless you mean concealed carry instead of showing a gun on your hip.

However I do agree with the majority of the points presented.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] apallohadas:
Going to geek out for a second, but if the perceived reward for the criminal is greater than the perception of the sanction against the act (i.e. getting shot or caught), then the criminal will try to 'get er done' anyway.

In other words, if the person open carrying looks like a target, they will still be a target, but now with a higher priority and more likely to receive a violent opening to the event.

The average Joe doesn't practice with their firearms anywhere near to the level of a soldier or law enforcer. Their retention self defense is minimal along with the very popular Serpa holsters or Uncle Mike's holsters that allow anyone to yank really hard and pull out the weapon.

All that being said, I'm a big fan of concealed carry.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rquinn19:
Concealed carry is the dumbest argument for this kind of situation. What would you do? The person snatched it from your hands. A concealed (can't be seen) wouldn't deter the person. You weren't vigilant enough to stop that from happening so you're going to pull your gun and put other innocent people at risk?

And a gun on the hip and can be seen is a bigger danger as far as I'm concerned. One sucker punch and an opportunistic criminal is taking that gun off of you. Another gun on the streets in the wrong hands.

I'm not against guns and all that...I just think some clueless people that watch too much TV think they can go buy a gun and go to the range once a year and all of a sudden are experts on self defense.

I don't know about you, but I don't want to have to kill someone over a cell phone. There's no telling if that person that took off with the phone is carrying either and I don't know about where you live, but here it's usually a group of teens and they could care less about really running half the time. You just have to know to be vigilant when things seem fishy. And if you ride public transportation watch at all stops.

Say if you were to wear a chain when the thief was snatching your phone, you'd end up injured. Any material thing isnt worth your well being, man......... or woman.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ionic7:
I cant believe he did so poorly even with all his air soft experience lolol, but who ever said this wont happen cause you are getting a cpl, you dont deserve one. If the theif snachted your phone and ran by time you deployed gun lined up a shot at his back as he ran away from you all yoi would do is put more people at risk
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rockky:
Sorry, I'm the OP and been ultra busy for days.

Regarding gun carry, I had two of them and didn't stop the snatch and sprinter.

(ok...I'm kind of kidding but I'm a personal trainer, 210pds fit with arms (guns) exposed etc. Stupid joke but....it's all about surprise and speed....and I am (very) fast...a sprinter!

Was a stereotypical 16yr kid, black hoodie, 145 and f a s t! That's his weapon.

I took off but didn't have a chance.

Really crowded sat afternoon in Chicago too... he ran down an alley...I screamed: 'stop him'...guys at the other end of the alley had 5 sec or more to react but just stood dumbfounded and watched him run by. (I guarantEE U, I would have stopped him and enjoyed it, had roles been reversed).

Cop said it's the #1 911 in all of Chicago now.

Easiest $200-$300 to snatch.

Why can't stolen devices be made completely unusable by Samsung/carriers...like completely.

It' d solve the problem.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rockky:
I think the visible chain would be a deterrent....they do size up their victims, and seeing that...would likely have them look elsewhere.

If it didn't, don't think much of an injury would occur.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] lovekeiiy:
I'm not joining the carrying the argument. All sides have valid points. Although, I did find the two videos interesting.

As for your case situation, it's hard to say what would work best. Not much if you're just using a cheapy TPU case. If you had something like a Defender, you could cut slots, feed some material, like what is used for dog leashes. On the end, inside the phone, I would super glue it to flat piece of strong plastic or metal. The other end, super glue it to form a loop. The material would maintain comfort. Personally, I think it would get old fast.

As a general rule, to really prevent it, one needs to pay attention to what's going on around them. Obviously, you must have used the phone a bit earlier and the thief saw and followed you, noticed you weren't paying attention. We know the rest

Also, sorry to hear about your phone.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] da_ferreira:
OK, so ditch the cell phone mount on this and put your concealed carry piece in it. Problem solved until Eco-ATM starts accepting firearms.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChodTheWacko:
Kind of. In theory, It would make stolen phones harder to sell, which would make stolen phones considerably less valuable.

And certainly you'd lose the ability to just steal someone's phone and use it yourself.

What they don't tell you in that video is that the person that comes in shooting knows where the person they need to shot is. They are always in the same seat.

You're ignoring the fact that the central theme is the reaction of the carrier.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] IamPro:
I don't care in either case on gun control and have only shot a gun twice in my life

I would think wearing a helmet would reduce my reaction time and this isn't the Wild West where you are in a shootout and if don't draw fast enough you are dead (alth I will admit in a few cases this could be but I rather have a gun then not to protect myself nonetheless).

Seems like this would be the more realistic situation

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] apallohadas:
Willing to bet that that old man has some training under his belt.

Muzzle Discipline. Even when he's not shooting he isn't flagging the gun around like some yahoos I see at public ranges.

... and after a few minutes of searching, it seems that he's a Vietnam Vet that had his CC license with him. Good for him!

I think the shirts hurt their ability to draw the guns honestly. But most people don't actually practice drawing their concealed weapon.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] eraursls1984:
Yep, they shot the instructor in the front of the room and then go straight for the student with the gun. Most people I know who conceal carry practice drawing all the time.

Are there apps that will allow me to activate self-destruct mode on the phone,

rendering it useless?

For example, the app can remotely run the CPU at maximum and cause it to

melt down and/or start a fire. (or will that cause the thief to find a good

lawyer and sue me instead?)

It has a pocket for an mp3 or phone inside the bag. But it also has a headphone jack outside the bag on the strap. Could possibly be a good alternative of you're still in school or carry a backpack.

I first seen it at Target and I was gonna buy it until I looked on Amazon. I know there are others but this one is well built. Gonna order it myself just to have when we travel.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bbgarnett:
Hello,

I have the Galaxy S2 Skyrocket i727 for at&t, stock non rooted or anything and I woke up the morning because I heard my phone make a sound and it was the Jingle that it makes after it vibrates, shows Samsung and then the screen goes white and the at&t logo appears, so my phone had just restarted itself and now it just get's stuck at the at&t logo and won't go past that screen. I have removed my battery and reinserted it and the phone doesn't turn on automatically only when I press the power button so I don't think it's sticky/stuck power button as to it just freezes at the at&t logo screen but to when I press the power button or hold it actually it just restarts the phone and doesn't turn it off only turns off if I remove the battery but doesn't turn back on when the battery is put back in. So anyone have any ideas on what to do to fix it before I just end up doing a factory reset or do you think I just need to do a factory reset, as it has been working fine for the most part, there were only a couple of other times maybe like 2 or 3 that the phone just restarted itself but it didn't ever freeze or get stuck like it is now and always just booted back up. I have also gone into recovery mode and wiped the Cache partition but that did nothing. so yeah any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Edit: well I went to recovery mode and just did a factory reset and well my phone got to the same screen and was stuck for a little bit but finally loaded up the getting started screen so hopefully this fixes the problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] spitfire2425:
I recommend flashing a stock ROM with Odin if you want complete stock. Wipe data and caches before you do. Don't install the app you installed latest cuz that could be your problem.

[HTC One S] RichardW1992:
So, I'm looking for a bit of information from those who know really;

When will be likely to see an AOSP 3.4 linux kernel, and why is it not already with us?

Sense kernels are based on 3.4 linux sources, and I believe they offer considerably better performance in various areas. Whereas the AOSP kernels are mostly based around 3.0.78 at the moment. Is there a reason for this?

My friend owns an Xperia Arc S with considerably older hardware in than our One S' and he has recently (thanks to some of the ARC developers) made a jump from 2.6 up to 3.4 linux base custom kernels. It has completely transformed his phone, particularly in the memory management, he used to struggle with RAM now the thing literally flies.

I have also noticed that every AOSP ROM I have tried has some sort of memory issue, presumably kernel related, in which my RAM is always consumed up, and switching out of a fullscreen game and returning back into it forces it to be reloaded from splash screen, ie my phone can not truly multitask. However on Sense ROMs I do not have this issue and can switch between in game play and others apps instantly, and I believe this is due to the 3.4 kernel.

Can anyone shed any light on any of this?

Many thanks!
[HTC One S] ryanshew:
Those are random hot reboots...most lily kernel voltage to low or low frequency to low. Possibly overclocked to high. Try a different/custom kernel if none of that helps

[HTC One S] RichardW1992:
You have misunderstood, my phone is not rebooting, the game is.

I meant the game had to reload from the splash screen, ie couldn't switch between instant gameplay and apex launcher for example.

This is not a voltage issue, definitely memory management related.
[HTC One S] ryanshew:
Could also be corrupted data somewhere. Do you restore this app or freak install? How about other apps, restored. Done full wipe, data and system, and fresh flash lately?

HTC_One_S | S-OFF | ViperOneS_2.2.0 | Black-Blue-Inverted_Sense | Bulletproof_1.4
[HTC One S] RichardW1992:
I am positive it is kernel related. It happens on all AOSP kernels, and no Sense kernels.

It happens in multiple apps and games regardless of fresh install or from titanium backup. I always full wipe etc between my flashes.

I am sure it is due to more advanced memory management in the later 3.4 kernel which Sense is based on? I am wondering when AOSP will catch up seeing as the Nexus 4 is rocking a 3.4 kernel which surely all our AOSP kernels are loosely based on? (Well obviously not seeing as we are still using 3.0.78 but you can see my logic I hope).
