[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Mildwild removed this option from around V-4.3, which is why I'm still on that rom. It allowed you to choose apps on internal, sd-ext or classic froyo apps2sd.

The latest version moves apps and dalvik cache to sd-ext automatically, you don't have to do anything. As long as you have a correctly partitioned sd card (4EXT or gparted), it will work.

Keep apps on internal to trick them to sd-ext, i.e. don't 'move to SD' . Also use cm7r2 hboot to maximise space as well.

If you install another app like 'diskusage', it will tell you how all your partitions are being used.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MisterMonitor:
I partitioned my card correctly, because on earlier version it worked, but now it shows me o 65mb used and 82mb free. My partition is 1GB. So i assume something is wrong because apps are not moved to sd-ext automatically ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Install diskusage like I said, you should see your sd-ext partition being filled up. You need to understand what is stored where.Your user app apks and dalvik cache should be automatically moved to sd-ext, and app data should be on internal memory (data partition),

However, 65MB used and 82MB free is your internal memory correct? This adds up to 147MB, which means you are on stock hboot. With diskusage look at your system partition, on stock hboot you will see a lot of free space on /system which is completely wasted. You should change hboot to cm7r2 to use space more efficiently.

Your rom system size is ~140MB. On stock hboot, your system size is 250MB, so you waste 110MB. cmr72 hboot has 145MB system, so you waste only 5MB. The saved space is converted to extra internal memory, 147MB increases to 287MB :)

What I believe is that your sd-ext partition is working fine, except that your internal memory (/data) appears to be filling up quickly because it is only 147MB, when when it should be 287MB total by simply switching to cm7r2. 287MB should be filled up by app data only (not apps or dalvik), which is plenty.

To change hboot you need to be s-off:

- Nandroid backup

- Get the hboot from alpharev.nl, then flash cm7r2 hboot using fastboot, guide here

- Reboot back to recovery, full wipe and restore nandroid.

Stupid Question..

Has anyone burned here burned out a smartphone's camera flash?

I used the "assistive light " last night and put the phone down, but I guess I forgot the turn it off..When I got up this morning and picked up the phone, the flash was still on.

I know that LED's have a conditional lifetime of thousands of hours, but I was just curious if anyone burned theirs out due to heat or excessive use, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igacek:
It's very possible and I have seen people melt the lens for the LED, since the LED is only meant to be a flash and not run continuously. It can get quite hot too.

I have the galaxy nexus INTERNATIONAL GSM version.

I formatted the phone and clicked on everything in the format option

format /sd-card

format /system

format /data

format /cache

now phone won't work only now.

wont go beyond "google" screen.

Was on android revolution hd 10 rom.

What to do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tiny4579:
It's not bricked. Try flashing the factory image or sideloading a ROM.

You still should be able to get to recovery or bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mickeyasamoah:
Just reflash a Rom for your device, the reason why its not booting is when formatted system it deletes the system apps which allows the phone to work, so the phones os incomplete.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chintz24:
Thanks for your reply.

How to flash a rom in this scenario?

My sd card is empty.

Since phone wont start I cannot connect a USB and transfer the ROM zip since it isnt detected
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DJxSpeedy:
start too bootloader mode and flash the stock rom with a toolkit complete new

send via Samsung Galaxy Nexus with Tapatalk 4 Beta
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mickeyasamoah:
Or you could boot into bootloader and select recovery. From there connect ur phone to ur pc and from the recovery, mount sd card or toggle USB storage which ever it is... enable it and ur sdcard would appear on ur pc, from there copy ur Rom after copying the Rom, unmount ur sdcard from the recovery. From there u can go on and flash your Rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pirateghost:
No it won't show up that way.

Adb push a ROM to the storage.

Why the F would you wipe everything in recovery and expect it to boot?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mamenyaka:
Or just simply restore your backup (maybe you accidentally made one by "clicking" around in recovery)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madquack:
download stock 4.2.2

There are certain people who don't need to have "smartphones" For the jackasses who keep suggesting to use the f*cking toolkit it's probably what got him in trouble in the first place. stop being a lazy turd and research things for yourself once in awhile, it's not that hard.

Samsung put download mode on it fyi...but Odin is a joke.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pirateghost:
I realize that it works and download mode is available.

What I'm saying is that Odin itself is a leaked tool from Samsung. There is no proper documentation for it and there is no official support from Samsung since we aren't even supposed to have Odin.

Fast boot methods are recommended and supported by Google. That is the official way to get out of a jam on a nexus device.

I can't believe that I even have to explain that.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] syrixcom:
First of all the program I need is for someone to write is to get the MSL code from the HTC Harrier.

Is this possible? Yes

Its possible because the Radio Rom does not lock like the GSM Models, now entering the 6 digit MSL code from 000000 to 999999 will take me around 10 months to crack plus being totally bored.

What I need is for someone to write a program in RILCDMA (Rilcdma.dll) attached, to enter the unlock command eg:-

For A = 000000 to 999999

enter code to the ril unlock if error wait 10 secs

if ok display A to screen (This is unlock code)

Write similar to the above which can be done, just need a good programmer, plus whoever writes this code could make some serious money because not just me who wants it around 500000 people will want it.

Process will probably take 2 days to crack rather than 10 months doing it the human way. I think the software way be grate.

Anyone interested please reply to post and get cracking because I am willing to pay.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] 100:
What exactly needs cracking? An unlock code?

A network access password (for free GPRS :D)?

I can program in c, and have dabbled in ppc architecture. Bit shady though, but I've made a non-gui ppc app before with no hicups.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cruisin-thru:
Looks like he wants a program that will cycle through every combination of numbers and present this to the radio, check the status locked/unlocked, if still locked then proceed, if unlocked then quit.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] christos4:
Hello everybody!

I was on ultimate v8 when my phone started rebooting in recovery without any reason, and entering recovery.if i restarted the phone i didn't had signal.

the phone worked properly without the sim card (tried two cards, it had this problem with both of them)

i thought it was a rom issue, so i flashed the stock rom, relocked the bootloader and used sony update service to repair my phone.

i didn't install any applications, and for a couple of hours it worked normally. afterwards though it lost signal again and started rebooting.

did a clean install again with no results.

any ideas what how should i procceed? is there any way to fix it or shoud i visit a service point?

ps sometimes it seems that sim cards are not properly recognised. it's not that it has the sign, that shows that there is no sim card, however sometimes i restart the phone and it doesn't ask for the pin code

[Ouya General] CamelJR:
(copied from ouyaforum)

July 25th System OUYA Firmware Update 1.0.393-r1

Here is the changelog:

• Network selection menu updated

o Better communication of important details, including current active connection

o Wi-Fi list now auto refreshes

o Various bug fixes

• Improvements to download speed over Ethernet

• Wi-Fi is now disabled when Ethernet is active (to increase performance). Removing Ethernet will re-enable Wi-Fi.

• Fixed an issue where downloads could get stuck in the “in Queue” state

• Changed the automatic controller pairing popup to occur after 2 minutes if the console is turned on and no action is taken. Also reworded the screen to make it clear already paired controllers can simply be turned on to connect

• Better handling of case where user changes their password on the web while logged into the console

• Fixed an issue where entering too many characters in the search window could cause a crash

• Fixed an issue where pressing the system button on two separate controller at the same time would register as a double tap

• In the Make menu, if the selected game hasn’t been downloaded yet, the "O" button now goes to the details page

• Pulled various page headers into the safezone, to avoid it looking like there is an overscan issue with the OUYA menus.

And for those of you curious about the July 23rd Update:

ODK 1.0.7 - July 23, 2013

=======================

•Exposed more information in the Receipt class: purchasing gamer uuid & app-specified purchase uuid

•Finally fixed OuyaController.startOfFrame crash

•Fixed OuyaFacade.getGameData always returning the incorrect value

•Added OuyaFacade.getAllGameData to get all key/value pairs

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hondaboi20002:
I didnt realize at that time, that the update he was doing :confused:would block root. If I factory reset, will it put me back to pre-update so that when i boot up the phone I can root it first thing? Thanks for any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkhorn:
From what I have read the answer is NO. I think you are SOL until a new root method is found.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hondaboi20002:
So basically all I can do is take it back, pay 35 buck restock fee, get another phone and root as soon as I get it setup and not install that update?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igacek:
I believe that is your only option, yes. To my knowledge, there is no way to revert back and you're stuck. Unless you'd like to just keep your current phone and wait until someone roots the new update, but your only other option would be to exchange it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hondaboi20002:
In your opinion, do you think the devs will find a way to crack this update and obtain root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] KidJoe:
Correct. That is *IF* the new phone doesn't already have the update installed, or the sales rep doesn't install the update while activating it and getting it ready for you.

Rumor has it that they already have root, but aren't releasing how until they can find a way to also unlock/patch the boot loader. They are said to be afraid of having Samsung/Verizon block this root method before they can use it to unlock the boot loader. Will they ever get it? Will they ever release the root method? That is anyone's guess.

So for now, it looks like the 16gig DEV edition direct from Samsung, without warranty, is the only option if you definitely want to root and flash custom roms now and "forever". But is it still available? or did they sell out yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hondaboi20002:
Spoke with my rep and he told me bring it back, exchange it and all he will do is activate it and hand it right over to me and will not install the update. Now once I do get the new phone without the update and obtain root, can or will that verizon update still try and come thru and ask me to install it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jova33:
You can block the OTA updater with titanium backup. I'm not on a stock ROM, so I don't remember the updater app name.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hondaboi20002:
Ok, got a new S4 and this worked !!

Ok, everyone I got a new S4 and activated at Verizon which it immediately started download pretty much as soon as it was turned on. I immediately disabled mobile data, turned it off and then took out the sim card. Once I got home, I hooked this baby up to my PC and rooted...success, finally! I used the I545 all-in-one-root tool which includes OUDS clockwork. http://www.droid-life.com/2013/05/30/all-in-one-root-tool-released-for-verizon-galaxy-s4/

My questions is I have installed ROM Manager so that I could do a backup, but when I first open ROM manager, it says I need to install a custom recovery even though I have OUDS clockwork built in. Do I need to install clockwork from within the ROM manager app? I can reboot into recovery, but its the OUDS "generic" recovery, for lack of a better word. Is that recovery good to go for backing up, flashing another ROM or do I need to use the ROM manager to install CWM from with the app itself? Hope this makes sense. Thanks everyone!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dopediculous:
I'm a VZW rep and every time I activate a new S4, the update automatically starts downloading and there's NO way to tell it to "differ" to a different time.

Trust me, its not OUR fault. It just happens sadly :-\

I too hope devs get a way to root past this OTA because I have friends that would like me to root for them, but the OTA just muscles its way through.

I haven't upgraded anyone to an S4 today, but will report back with more info when I do. I'm pretty sure that after we activate the phone, the download starts and the notification just sits there until you click it (then it updates) or if you restart the device, it may force the update. I'll test on my next customer and let y'all know the real answer :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brw9100:
My experience with the update is that it will tell you the download is ready and at that point you can postpone it to a later time. It even gives you a little wheel to select when to install the update. The phone is still completely rootable during that time. When the notification comes back you can again postpone until a later time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
That's what happened to me. During the initial setup it was downloading the OTA update. As soon as I could, I enabled "Airplane mode" to kill the update, but no, it had already downloaded and asked if it was OK to install.

I deferred it until 1:00 AM and immediately started the rooting process. Got root, installed SuperSU Pro and enabled Survival mode. I also installed Voodoo OTA RootKeeper, but that wasn't necessary.

So I'm now running stock with superuser available and protected. Unfortunately, no custom recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AxAtAx:
Since I have been doing smartphones, I have NEVER updated, I wait until someone has tried it. and even then, I wait for a dev to cook it up. And everyone better hope you do not have to do any replacements thru the carrier, you WILL get a bootloader locked device with the newest release, NO bootloader fix.

Need to find alternatives.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dopediculous:
That's great news to hear! Unfortunately my location was dead yesterday and I didn't sell any S4's. Just stupid idonts to bubblegum chewing pop tarts and grandparents. Ugh *face palm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jova33:
Yeah, I ordered my S4 online, and it let me defer the update. It downloaded, then said ready to install would you like to install now or later? I set the timer to 12 hours, rooted, installed recovery, flashed AOKP, and bam, no worrying about OTA updates.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HowardZ:
What I suggest is what I did.

Do not place the sim into the phone.

My phone came from Wirefly.com without the sim card installed.

Power up without sim card, boot directly to download mode, connect to pc usb port, run Odin, follow rooting procedure.

Only after you freeze SDM using titanium backup, should you consider inserting the sim card.

Also while on wifi samsung will ask to install update, say no.

P. S. I installed samsung drivers, and Odin. I did not install kies which I have read also tries to install the update.
