[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] r.romyo:
Hi everyone,

My Galaxy Ace Plus is my first Android phone, and since I bought it several months ago I was confused because I found 3 memory locations on my device: the Internal Storage, USB Storage, and the External Memory card that I added.

I can't really understand what the USB Storage is?

In fact I made a factory reset few days ago as the device was freezing a lot, and it asked me whether I want to format the USB storage or not, stating that if I chose to format it I will lose all my music and pictures and other files. So I became more confused because all my media files, ebooks, etc. are placed in the External Memory card! so why it would consume space of both storage locations!!

can anyone explain that please?

Also what will I lose if I formated the USB Storage only? would it improve the device performance anyway?

Thanks!

Internal storage , Usb storage & SD storage

internal storage is the one reserved for system, i.e 1.5 GB on Note, or in another words it is the flash memory of the device. It stores the components of ROM or the ANDROID OS. Applications get installed on this memory.

USB storage is the rest of the original storage on Note (i.e around 9.5 GB). In common language an Internal Memory where all your files are saved by default. This memory is used by most of the applications for storage of their data.

Most of the move2sd apps move apps from internal to SD Storage which means the USB Storage.

external SD Card storage, on the other hand, is the storage which relies on another SD Card put into the phone, e.g....external SD Card.

That's before you put external SD card..

If you put another SD Card in the phone, it will read as external SD Card. In the file system, it is known as external_sd.

Now, the answer to your next question.. Formatting the USB Storage of the phone is simply formatting your internal memory. It has nothing to do with PERFORMANCE. it just makes space available on your device's internal memory. :good:

Thanks a lot!

Thanks! now I got it :good:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p-walker:
I just installed the latest Slim Bean Rom and fiddled around with the wallpaper. The initial one with the little S in the background was quite nice but then I tried another wp from gallery, which in the end I didn't like.

BUT how do I get the either the stock Slim background back or just a black wp? CM 10.1 has the option to just set a black wallpaper, I really miss that option in Slim Bean. I would've suggested it to the developpers in the official thread for it, but unfortunately I don't have the rights to post comments there...

I found in another thread a pic of the original Slim wp but I can't manage to get it look like it was when I just installed the Rom, any idea apart from reflashing the whole Rom?

Edit: I was able to post the question in the original thread now, don't know what's wrong with the rights management in the forums here...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BladeZero:
The dev would probably have to send you the image himself, pm him
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p-walker:
Actually you just have to go to themes and select the stock theme, it will also apply the stock Rom wallpaper... but at least I'm not the only one who didn't figure that out ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BladeZero:
That doesn't work with all roms, depends on how it was made but I'm glad it worked for you

Hi,

I have a spanish ROM of a 9090, v.ROM 1.22, v.Phone 1.06.

How can I update my 2020 to WM 2003?

What are the steps?

Do I need anything else?

Google Edition Camera apk

Wondering if anyone was able to get it to work on Shelnutt2's CM10.1. I keep getting force closed on camera, gallery works fine though.

[SOLVED] It wasn't working because of a mod on the media_profiles.xml file that I was using. Once I went to the normal file, it started working.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jcpetrs:
I can confirm rear and front cameras as well as photosphere work on Lifeless 14 however photos are limited to 8mp.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
Worked for me running the last beanstalk... Getting option for 13mb pics :)

[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
Thanks. Did you just install it as any other app or did you have to take other steps?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
I had to flash photosphere then installed the app like any other apk :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
Is that the one from Banks gapps?

Edit: I flashed photosphere. Then the new camera app installed; however, it force closes when opening the camera app.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] EFEXR:
I just tried on Shelnut2 CM 10( build 6.27).

What I did to make it work was (using Titanium Backup) uninstall Gallery. You will get a notice if you want t, uninstall gallery2.apk, hit yes. Then install Google edition camera apk and the camera should work with 13 MP, not reboot necessary (although it is recommended).
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
Sorry yeah its from BAnks ... I just did as I said and didn't have any issues with fcs
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
Interesting, in Titanium, I see Gallery 1.1.400001 and when I try to un-install, it says "Cannot remove system app, Failed to locate the apk file"

It's weird because with other system apps, I can remove without issue.

Edit: Figured it out. It was because of a mod on the media_profiles.xml file causing it to force close.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
This may be a dumb question, but where are you getting photosphere from to flash before installing the new camera app?

Also will it work for stock ROMs as well?

Does this replace the stock camera app?

Sent from my LG-LS970
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jblazea50:
It should work on stock roms as others have done it. I don't think it replaces the stock camera, instead you may have 2 camera apps (make a backup of the current camera/gallery app before installing).

Have you tried just installing it like a normal app? That should work.

If you need the photosphere addon, you can find it here: Banks Gapps Photosphere
[Sprint LG Optimus G] simpkill:
Works nicely on Jellybeer.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
can you upload the xml that works for you? i keep getting fc
[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
Has anyone tried this on rootbox? I tried installing like normal with no luck. Gallery worked fine but like others have stated, camera force closes.

idk how I got here...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
You install the photosphere add on? and maybe try fixing permissions :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
its the media profiles that messes it up. i pulled the one out of beanstalk and moved it to the ETC folder and it works now. heres the file!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
Works well with AOKP, btw I didn't the flashable zip that was included in that thread and had no issues at all.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
I'm not rooted and I got it working fully but for some reason mine only goes to 8mp. Not a big deal for me but still would like the option.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
This worked for me!!! Loving it so far.

idk how I got here...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:

[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
Stock rom and kernel but rooted and unlocked. I just unlocked the phone today right before flashing the add-on. About to flash the liberty kernel, not sure if that will change anything. Did you wipe anything when flashing the add-on?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] simpkill:
Nope. Just flashed no wipe. Not sure if I should have or not. I've been having focusing issues with the regular camera though. Photosphere has been good.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NexusS4gFreak:
Anybody know the best, for sure, way to install on BeanStalk/AOKP?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
I've done it twice on beanstalk. Flashed photosphere add on, then installed the apk :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NexusS4gFreak:
Okayy thanks for ur help!! SInce ur on BeanStalk i have a question, do you have the 0 folder issue?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
Nope... Well at least I don't think so lol what is the issue you have?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NexusS4gFreak:
Theres a duplicate of everything in the storage taking up twice as much space as needed. Might wanna check ur storage and see if u have a 0 folder. Itll also be in the data/media folder
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
Yeah I don't have that... No 0 folder or a data media folder...

[Sprint LG Optimus G] McSkullough:
I got the same message after flashing Photosphere and trying to install the apk.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
I'm having a difficulty installing the camera also. After the flash the camera icon is there but once I click on it it for closes. The gallery seems to work just fine. I tried fixing permissions and still no luck. Anybody have any ideas?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
I'm on a stock ROM and installed this app like any other without the photosphere add-on. Works perfect for me with photosphere. Just wish I could get the 13mp but no biggie. No need to flash the app in recovery

[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
Lucky you I haven't been able to get it installed yet.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] McSkullough:
Mine still force closes. I downloaded the file, extracted the profile, moved it to etc, and overwrote the existing profile.

Did I do something wrong?

[Sprint LG Optimus G] McSkullough:
Just that? No photosphere or GoogleEdition.apk? And do I just flash that in recovery? I'm about to do a fresh install of Vanilla to get everything back, and if I can, I'll just flash this with it. Thanks.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
Did you flash photosphere first?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] McSkullough:
Yes, when I flashed Vanilla Rootbox and SlimGApps.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
No, I'm using that along with the Google camera. I was stating to try that media profile instead of others. There are two methods for applying it. Either flash it in recovery is r manually place it where it needs to be. Its explained in the op of the thread.

Sent from my LG-LS970
[Sprint LG Optimus G] McSkullough:
Okay, I'll give it a shot.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Greatness83:
seemed to be pretty good, but only does 8mp for me, also it didnt replace other cam. just added the cam and gallery
[Sprint LG Optimus G] McSkullough:
I believe you need to delete the old gallery to fix that. It's mentioned earlier in the thread.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] samsungepicgeek:
Can someone tell me how to install this on Vanilla RootBox? It force closes when you try using the camera, but not when you use the gallery.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
Don't feel bad I haven't been able to get it installed either.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] treezy26:
I use this method on rootbox and it's working for me.

idk how I got here...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigjoexxl:
I'm running VectuS v2 and I've been unable to install the camera without it force closing. I tried every possible method except the media profiles which I don't understand how to perform. Could someone give me a more detailed guide?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] hoslayer13:
It will fc if you switch to the front facing camera or use a setting like panorama, etc. Just wipe the camera app data using titanium backup or through its app setting to get it to work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] samsungepicgeek:
I tried this on rootbox, but it still doesn't work.??

Edit: never mind I just needed to reboot the phone. Works now!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] samsungepicgeek:
One more problem though, photosphere doesn't work. I cleared the app data but still force closes.

Have you wiped caches in recovery?

[Sprint LG Optimus G] roguejam:
On stock with Liberty Kernel, wasn't an option for me. That and a 8MP max are the biggest two reasons I went back to the stock camera.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MasterScat:
I'm on TeamEOS and i can shoot hdr. Mine is also limited to 8mp. The 8mp isn't a problem for me since that is what the camera was at on the latest teameos update.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
Same setup here. Not a big deal. If I need hdr I will just use the stock camera.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] That_Guy0505:
I can confirm that this works on the Dirty Unicorn ROM up to 13mp for anyone that was wondering.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] mistermidas:
Ditto. I can use every other option, but I get a force close when I try to use photosphere.

Edit: Didn't read through the thread well enough at first, got photosphere to work. Pretty nice feature, but I still overall like all the options that come with the cm10.1 camera more than this one. Plus, I can use my media profile hack on the cm10.1 camera, but not with the Google edition cam.

Here's a fixed version of the camera, everything works.

are you able to get 13 MP? mine only shows 8..otherwise everything else works fine
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BonezMontana:
Yes I get 13. The only thing that's missing is action mode. I also don't have a picture preview after taking pics either, but I'm going to assume that's not a feature of this camera.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
Its because you are on a stock ROM. Aosp will let you go to 13
[Sprint LG Optimus G] antonio824:
What the hell is the difference in making it be 8 or 13 between the two? Lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
I installed the camera linked in the op. Today I uninstalled it to use the updated version. The updated version deleted the stock lg gallery from the app list. I tried to uninstall the new updated Google camera via the apps setting and titanium. The apps setting doesn't give you the option and titanium says it can't find the apk to uninstall. According to root manager the stock lg gallery is still installed. However after reboots and cache and dalvik wipes it won't show.

Any ideas how to uninstall the Google camera gallery?

Ok So I'm Just Making An Account With XDA But I've Been Modifying My Phone For Almost 2 Months Now. Currently, I'm Running PAC-Man Rom 23.0.0 With Franco Kernel 3.4.0.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
PIE controls are not hard to use. It takes some time to get use to. Relax buddy.

There should an option in settings to diable PIE and bring back the soft keys. Perhaps you're on Expandable desktop mode. Try holding the power button until the reboot, power, and airplane options appear. If there is an option for Expandable desktop or something similar tick it. If you can't get it back from there, try finding the option in the settings menu.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
+1 to you possibly being in expanded desktop mode. Long press power and disable it, things should work as normal again.

Alright, I just had my Note 2 replaced under warranty due to overheating a shutting down (Best Buy refurb phone replaced it) and I'm running into more issues with the replacement phone than the original. For example, I use Swype to text/type, but when I try and type the word "down" for example, it will seemingly not follow my finger across the screen properly as it breaks it into two words "f2f upper" and the word "assignment" registers as "ahoy highly rent". Now, I have tried other swype-type programs, including the samsung keyboard (default) and it does the exact same things on there which leads me to believe it has to be a phone issue.

Anyone ever had a similar experience and if so how did you resolve the issue.

Hello guys! I'm a newbie here... I'm so interested in porting custom roms especially the Cyanogenmod & MIUI! It's really great when it comes to UI, performance and speed! I'm just using an old phone Motoglam XT800W Froyo 2.2 stock rom ported to to CM9. Everything went fine except for the gallery (It keeps on loading that's why I changed my gallery to quickpic) and the video camera is acting strange. Sometimes it records but sometimes not (that's why I installed MIUI cam and it went well). My question is, are there still available CM/MIUI Mod roms sites even if it's unofficial, that still updating/developing until now especially here? I found one but I don't know how to download it, can't find the link. Your help is trully appreciated! Tnx so much!^^
