Hi! You have done a very very good work dude.. this version for Hd devices run perfect, no crashes at all, the box where we type is perfect, centered and the correct size for our devices... but you need to work a little bit the widget as you see..

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdsav:
EDIT - setting download path to /sdcard2/ or /sdcard/ext_sd/ works for downloading thumbnails & images, but neither of those paths seems to work for capturing the pics i've taken even though the pics reside in subfolders there (/sdcard2/DCIM/100MEDIA, or /sdcard2/Gallery/) after i've moved them to sd. Was hoping it'd upload all my pictures if i selected the top folder but seems no dice, will try individually after i have the other issue worked out and reformat my card.

sorry for the delay in update in case anyone was following for answers - went through breakup, moved, and have replaced device & reset it 4x now due to other issue.

is it possible that setting this save path to /sdcard2/ is the cause of my phone's other issue where every time i reset it, all apps stored to /mnt/sdcard/ are no longer recognized?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Droid Incredible 4G LTE - ADR6410LVW Question

Hey - I've read all the posts about needing root to modify file path to the external sd because it was renamed sdcard2 but i just downloaded the SmugMug app and it allows selection of upload & download directories (though the app won't upload my pics which are on the removable sd card, or download thumbs to the external sd card). Using AndroZip I can see that photos are saved as shown below. Here are my questions:

1. Why do the filenames overlap?

2. Can I set the upload directory to /sdcard/ext_sd/ and have it capture both categories (I think the 2613 are shots i've taken with this phone and the 1071 are with my old DINC)?

3. To what should I set the download directory so that it saves my smugmug albums & thumbs in an appropriate place (maybe such that when i open my gallery app it is a separate folder)?

Directories with photos:

/mnt/sdcard/ext_sd/DCIM/100MEDIA 2613 files

/sdcard/ext_sd/DCIM/100MEDIA - 2613 files

/sdcard/ext_sd/Gallery - 1071 files

/sdcard2/DCIM/100MEDIA - 2613 files

2613 + 1071 = 3684

​

(note - /mnt/sdcard/DCIM/100MEDIA is *empty* (must be internal sd card))

gallery app:

camera shots - 2613

gallery - 1069 (2613 + 1069 = 3682)

all photos - 3660

all videos - 22

thanks in advance for any help - I'm gonna try some different things and see what happens a little later so will update this post with any results in case anyone else has the same question. i've also contacted the app devs so will update with their response when i hear.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bob_man_uk:
hi all,

I recently returned my tab 2 7.0 (3110) to stock firmware from sammobile, after reading a few tutorials and experience of flashing a few devices i downloaded the firmware, extracted and flashed through odin 1.85, everything went ok and the device rebooted.

the device starts up, makes the standard sound and shows the boot logo.but it just keeps cycling the boot logo.

i cant seem to get the device into any mode, recovery or download, it just ignores all vol up and down presses and continues to boot.

any help you can offer is appreciated.

If i can get anything to work in the mean time, i will update.

"One year later, the Nexus 7 has gone from the best to worst tablet I've ever owned."

I'm surprised nobody has posted this yet:

http://androidandme.com/2013/06/opi...from-the-best-to-worst-tablet-ive-ever-owned/

People that are having issues with their nexus 7's, especially if you put a bunch of files on the sd card, you're not hallucinating.

EDIT: I wanted to edit this post because people are misunderstanding the article. There are two types of lag. There's the lag that is experienced when you have too many apps and widgets, and there there is lag caused by an issue with the nand itself.

This is from user daywalker on appleinsider.com. take it as you will.

I'm still on Android 4.1.2, and my Nexus 7 doesn't seem noticeably slower than when I got it about 9 months ago.

I don't plan to "upgrade" to 4.2.x anytime soon.

If you run a benchmark, is your Nexus 7 really slower than the day you got it? Try nbench; I've posted my results here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=42720625

The Asus cable must have deteriorated and caused slow charge rates with the AC adapter; I'm using my Motorola cable for faster charging.

Google Services remain awake, draining my battery. Not sure what is causing this yet.

My last one broke so I exchanged for this new one 2 months ago. I have been using this one as a big wireless USB drive, download and transferring HD movies, Windows OS, 15GB games, etc. I have also been overclocking as much as I can out of it; able to get up to 160% of stock performance with Faux123 kernel in conjunction SlimBean ROM. The CPU temp was getting over 70c so I reduced the voltage by 50mv. Its been stable without any performance reduction or notable issues.

Just decided to reflash stock Google 4.2.2 image and start from fresh and all I can say is that my nexus now feels like getting out of the box.

I was getting the worse lag I've ever felt even with my HTC Desire and trying all sorts of roms and kernels. I think I'm going to stick with rooted stock firmware for now.

In December it will be one year that I have had owned my tablet and I have not noticed very little signs of slow down and no noticeable decrees in battery life. I charge it every night and I use it daily. I have no complaints about my tablet it serves me well and I think I will wait until Rev 3 or 4 before I upgrade
[Nexus 7 General] Richieboy67:
Exactly... And if it runs good bone stock then some apps could also be causing issues.

The reason I tend to be so defensive with these 2 Nexus devices is because I use them on a daily basis and I just never had these issues.

Also, if someone says their device is slowing down with age and if the operating system is generally pretty good then what else could it be other than background processes?

Also, I'm not saying the 2012 nex 7 could not be improved. I think the added power and ram on the new one week be a vast improvement. Hopefully mine will so soon!!!
[Nexus 7 General] pbr35586:
I have had a lot of problems with lag. If I go with less than 2gb of free space the tablet is so slow that in order to use it I had to reinstall jellybean. So I recently rooted so I could run fstrim. I installed a few news apps and magazines, podcast, videos. So I was constantly filling up my free space then deleting and then filling it up again basically using it as a torture test for any ssd. I thought it was a media consumption device. I hope the trim feature really helps me. For those of you with misbehaving apps in 4.3 there is a new feature permissions manager that let's you see what apps are using the internet how often and when. It also allows you to change permissions on those apps. There is a shortcut app called permissions manager in the play store. I sure hope this is a step forward.
[Nexus 7 General] mchinand:
My experience has been the same. It's not any particular background process that causes the slowdown but when the storage space is almost full is when it slows down. Just prior to getting the OTA upgrade, I realized that the Gallery App was using 5GB of storage (since I had Daydream on and set to display photos from my Picasaweb account). After deleting those photos, my Nexus7 was much more responsive (it was virtually unuseable before). I too am hoping the new storage management features supposedly added to 4.3 will alleviate our need to conserve storage space in order to maintain responsiveness (why have the storage if we can't use it all?). I hadn't tried lagfix/fstrim before getting the 4.3 upgrade.
[Nexus 7 General] T-Keith:
You are spot on. People that say some lag is normal don't understand the problem. Trust me, I had a DROID eris, I know what lag is like. What we are talking about it puts it to shame. I'm talking about 2-3 minutes to pull up chrome. Typing an entire paragraph before the first word shows up on the text field. Not just choppy animation or a 5 second delay.

And it's not just background apps. I have twice the number of applications on my Galaxy Nexus. All the same apps that my nexus 7 has and at times even less free space without nearly the lag or lockups.

It's a real problem, if you don't have it, fell lucky. Don't tell us it's not a problem.
[Nexus 7 General] TheIronMaiden:
I've had my nexus7 for awhile and I still love it. If it's lagging then fix it. I mostly use it as e reader and a media device. Eliminate and limit background tasks, makes sure you have plenty of memory, learn how the device works and know it's limitations. I only have 8 gb and it's a pain in the ass managing storage space. Besides if it's a bad choice for you, get an ipad
[Nexus 7 General] BrianDigital:
your right, lets go make a complaint to google to remove the fstrim commands added in 4.3 since its apps causing the issue, google should hire you

[Nexus 7 General] Richieboy67:
No need to be a ****.. My original post was in reply to the nexus 7 getting worse over time. I said in my experience it hasn't.

Are you saying that you have a bone stock nexus 7 with out a bunch of crap running on it and it is lagging to hell? I haven't had those issues...

They are some here who complain about everything including some tons that may not even exist. They are also people who just love to think they know so much more than Google. If the device is so awful and you hate it so much try another type. The worst tablet ever? Really?
[Nexus 7 General] Fotogravin:
Yes, I've had some of those problems with lockups and stuff. Reasson: the bad memory management of android 4.2 (and even 4.1). Now I have 4.3 and not yet have experienced lockups. RAM management is way better in 4.3 and it is a huge difference.

did the fill up and delete trick on 4.2.2, fixed the lag.

lag returned in 4.3 after a while. (update via cwm recovery + reroot with superSU 1.43)

had 4.6gig free, still lots of lag. the discard mount option is not set anymore.

tried lagfix (fstrim), took only seconds to run and seems to have fixed the lag.

at least for the first minutes of observation.
[Nexus 7 General] browy:
Sorry for being off topic but I just need to ask, which rom and kernel are you using? 9h screen on time just sounds surreal to me.
[Nexus 7 General] T-Keith:
Screen time is mostly related to screen brightness. Some people can tolerate their screen being dim all the time and get awesome screen on times. It's really pointless to compare battery life between users. Way to many variables.
[Nexus 7 General] :
i ran my androbench with cleanmaster and without. i got a little higher benchmark without cleanmaster. the lag might be coming from certain apps you have installed. i experience lag at times but not so much. ive had my device about 4-5 months and its still awesome.check your apps would be my suggestion.

[Nexus 7 General] thevuman:
I'm on the same boat. It used to be so awesome. Now... Not so much and I end up using my iPad Mini more now. Lag is unbearable on this device. MY htc incredible S, a three year old phone, is actually more responsive and less Laggy than this.

Apparently, it's Asus fault for putting a crappy slow memory hardware or whatever in the Nexus 7 that is causing insane lag. I will never buy an Asus product ever again.

I also have the screen lift.

Good job, Asus. If the new Nexus 7 is made by Asus, I'm not buying it.
[Nexus 7 General] T-Keith:
Can the people posting with lag confirm whether or not their sd cards have 3gb of open space or not?
[Nexus 7 General] :
I am copying a post I made in another thread. It pretty much speaks to a lot of posts here, as far as lag goes anyway. The moral.....wipe and reinstall a rom....or stock, whatever. Bet you're surprised after.

Here it is....

You install stuff, system partition gets full of junk, uninstall things, some junk gets left behind. Any o/s on any device suffers same fate. I "fix" friends and families computers that have got the same way his nexus has.....and you know what always works best.......fresh install....and they are usually blown away at how fast their computer is again. Android is no different.

Should you have to do a fresh install to maintain the status quo? No, definitely not...but computers and phones and whatnot aren't as efficient as they should be.....so yes....sometimes you gotta wipe and start fresh.

OP, you can buy another device obviously ....that is your choice ....but I guarantee a wipe and fresh install will speed it right back up....assuming nothing that is a performance killer gets put on it after to bog it down again. ￼

Again, it isn't hardware related. No way. Hardware either works....works intermittently.....or doesn't work. Hardware doesn't just slow down with age....people do.....not modern day electronic components. ￼
