I am a Google Music user and since I have a capped data plan I can't stream like I want to. I have to save music to the phone from Google Music. I have a 32 gig sd card that I can use if I am rooted and link a folder on the sd card.

I would actually like to go completely stock(for corporate email where I work I can't be rooted) but also want to save music from Google Music to my external sd card. Is there anyway to do this without being rooted?

WARNING: BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING PLEASE READ THIS THREAD AND MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE.

A few days ago I came across this thread which made me think and try. At the beginning I couldn't flash the zips necessary for making backups without rebooting to recovery .

What you will need:

1.Bootloader unlocked and a rooted phone . If you don't have any of them please read here and here

2.Busybox

3.A root explorer of your choice

4.A terminal emulator app

5.The 2 files from the zip attached

6.Patience

Open your root explorer extract and copy the 2 files attached to /system/bin and set permissions 755( that's rwxr-xr-x).

Reboot your phone.

Open Terminal app and type su to obtain root followed by onandroid.

Sit back and relax while the script backs up your rom.

All thanks go to ameer1234567890 who gave us the Online Nandroid . I only found the thread and also found the method to copy the files to Razr I.

When i'll have some time i'll try to make a flashable zip for the lazy ones ;)
[RAZR i General] free2live:
As promised here are the zips for flashing from recovery with update binary working with the Razr I. I have only tested with CWM, but they should work with TWRP as well.

I suppose everyone knows what to do, but just in case someone new tries it:

-copy the 2 zips to you internal storage or external sdcard

-reboot to recovery

-select install zip from sdcard(now choose the location of your files)

-select zip

-install

-reboot

Enjoy

nandroid,etc, assistance

Is this the best way to do a " nandroid " - I have been part of this site for quite some time , read numerous sites, but i have a very bad memory problem and that's why i have many text documents setup to the point i am confused. Right now I have an AT&T S4 which has a bad IMEI, so I want to use it as a test phone, but it has been updated to 4.3 -which from what I understand I would need to downgrade back to 4.1.2 order to unlock the phone via the dial pad. I was able to accomplish that one time when I first got a Samsung S4 and did it via the dial pad before the OTA came out for 4.3.

I also own a S3, also AT&T, so i can learn how to to root and unlock and use CWR or TWRP and than learn ROMS. I know I need to make a backup before I do anything, and also constantly reading the " Noob " general forums for both phones. I also am familiar with Samsung Kies, which does a backup but I don't think it's the same as this nandroid i have been reading about.

Thank you or taking out the time and reading my post. I will check back to see if anyone had some time to give me some direction or an answer to my problem with " nandroid" or if someone even could touch up on any subjects I have mentioned. Please don't think I haven't spent hrs of time on YouTube, Google, Howard forums and especially here on XDA.

The 2013 Nexus 7 won't be getting this update. It's running on a newer branch of 4.3 (JSS15J > JWR66Y). This is only for the N4, N10, 2012 N7 and the Galaxy Nexus.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] flyestAC:
Hey guys... New to this forum after having to dust off the Bionic after my GS3 screen got smashed. I'm rooted and running Carbon 1.8 but am wondering about backups when switching ROMs. I would keep nandroids of my fave setups on the GS3 so if I flashed a new ROM and something didn't work I could flash back no problem. What's the process for backing up and restoring with Safestrap?

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] useltonm:
It's really simple to use Safestrap. If you want to switch between roms you just need to choose the slot you want to install it to and press activate. Using slots allows you to have several roms installed at the same time without having to back up and flash a rom each time you want to switch.

If you're looking to back up a rom, you need to have that slot active and then click on back up from the home screen of safestrap.

If you flash a rom you don't like, it is very easy to restore a backup to the slot or wipe the slot, recreate it and then flash your backup.

Let me know if you have any more questions or need more specifics

I have a Galaxy Tab 2 (P5113) that won't boot at all. I can get it into Download mode, but not recovery. I have tried using ODIN to flash a new recovery and a complete ROM and it usually errors out with and error of NAND write error, (Successful 0, Failed 1). I have tried multiple ROMs and a couple of recoveries to no avail. I have installed KIES and made sure it wasn't running in the back ground. I even tried to flash a PIT and it gets to a point that says there is no PIT partition. Any thoughts? All help would be appreciated. Thanks.

This can be for a number of reasons , the least serious being:

1. Are you sure your phone is not locked to a network ?

2. Did you use an original USB cable ?

3. Did you connect directly to USB port of computer and not a

usb hub ?

4. Try another USB port on your computer ?

1. This a wifi only version so no carrier.

2. It is the original cable

3. Connecting directly to the computer, but I am using the front ports on a tower. I will give the rear ports atry.

4. Used both front ports, but will give the rear ports a try.

Just a poll: if your note 2 is still in good working condition, will you upgrade when note 3 comes out?
[Galaxy Note II General] intl:
No. I have my Note 2 for 7 months. I go for the Note 5.
[Galaxy Note II General] Fostil:
No. I'll only consider buying new one, if they manage to create screen that will be perfect visible in direct sunlight. Apart from that, I don't see a reason to buy next gen note. Note2 is a beast, that run perfect for me.
[Galaxy Note II General] iCurmudgeon:
I second that. I tried taking pictures of my car with my Note 2 to send to someone interested in buying it and they call came out looking like crap because I couldn't make out what was on the screen even though the sun wasn't hitting the screen directly. Give me a phone with a super-bright screen mode (even if it reduces the battery life to three hours or less) so I can use the camera outdoors!

[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
@ Barry, you wouldn't switch because of the display??? That's my main reason to switch. If you experience a 1080p display or should I say a 320+ Ppi display, you'll definitely notice the difference. Not that it breaks the experience on the note 2, far from it, but I would say that the display is definitely a main reason to upgrade because 1080p displays are NOTICEABLY better than 720p displays.
[Galaxy Note II General] anonymous572:
I have absolutly same opinion.
[Galaxy Note II General] tenderidol:
The decision is easy for me because I'm moving from S2. I was waiting for S4, but seeing my wife's N2 and the usefulness of the S Pen at that screen size, I decided to get a Note 3 at launch. Now, I'm deciding whether to sell my Note 10.1, since I find myself using the recently acquired 11" Macbook Air for most of my "work/entertainment from the couch" activities and there'll be some overlap between N3 and N10.1.
[Galaxy Note II General] FloatingFatMan:
I'm not buying another phone until they either switch back to plastic screens, or develop one that doesn't break when you drop the thing. Cracking my Note 2 screen was devastating... :(
[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
Not really. I've posted this before and you're probably tired of seeing it but it's true. Beyond a certain PPI the human eye can't resolve the additional detail. And where it can is limited to CGI and text not pictures and video which is explained in the article.

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/10/1080p-on-a-smartphone-screencan-it-possibly-matter/

In every area outside resolution the HTC One's display is inferior to the One X's. People have become so hung up on PPI that they've stopped caring about the criteria that affects them most like consistency across displays, brightness, color temperature, contract, etc. I think the N3's display will be better than the N2's more because of improvements in AMOLED design and manufacturing than just PPI. The SGS4's display is significantly brighter than the N2's and the N3's will probably be more so because there's more battery to work with in terms of where Samsung can set max brightness.

Here's what AnandTech (who arean't big Samsung fans) said about the N2's display.

It’s tempting to look at the 1280x800 of the Note and the 1280x720 of the Note 2 and assume it’s lower resolution, when in fact the Note 2 has more subpixels (2.05 MP vs 2.76 MP) and in spite of the size increase stays around the magical 1 arcminute subtense (1.073 arcminutes on Note 2).​

The reference to 1 arcminute is significant. Anything below 1 arcminute can't be processed by the human eye at 12-15" away. The One and SGS4 have an arcminute subtense of .66 which is just a waste. That is unless someone holds the phone 12" or less away from their face and happen to be looking at text or icons. I think the improvements people are seeing on newer displays has less to do with PPI in some cases (SGS3 vs. SGS4) and more to do with advances in technology that impact overall display performance.

[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
I have to disagree with you Barry, there's a noticeable difference between the S4 display and the Note 2 display for example. I don't know how it has been proven that the human eye can't see more details beyond 300+ Ppi, that's the very first thing that struck me when I unboxed the HTC one for the first time, I was so impressed by the display, never seen anything like it before. So from my personal experience, a 1080p makes a huge difference and many others agree

http://m.pocketnow.com/2012/11/20/htc-droid-dna-review

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6A-PpwfM1wo
[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
A more relevant comparison would be between a 720P and 1080P version of the exact same display; not against one a generation apart. I've seen a One and One X display next to each other and didn't find the detail difference that noticeable. Holding them closer than I normally would and looking at small black text on a white background I could see a difference; but primarily because I was looking it for. The SGS4 display is Samsung's brightest AMOLED with the most accurate color production they've ever achieved. I'm guessing the N3's will follow in its footsteps. When looked at next to a N2 it should look significantly better. But it's not just the PPI that's contributing to that improvement.

If you're ever bored read some about "visual acuity." It explains why Apple chose the PPI they did for their "retina" display and why Motorola launched the X with a 720P display against 1080P competition. I'm happy that the N3 will have a 1080P display but I'm happier the other aspects of the display will be improved. I'd be happier still if Samsung would release a Note 10.1 with a FHP display because it makes a bigger difference there than it does on a phone.
[Galaxy Note II General] Burginthorn:
Would I switch from my beloved Note II for the 3?

I've been around long enough to know one thing. People can argue till the cows come home on why they would or wouldn't switch to a new device BEFORE its launched, but experience has taught me the best way to know for sure is simple patience. Waiting for the device to be launched and more importantly waiting for USER feedback on the device. This takes a little nerve and some will power because more often than not when someone forks out major $$$ for something new, they tend to go a little over the top about how good it is, almost a justification that its money well spent ...

But if you can hold off until you get real world feedback, only then can you make an informed choice on whether its worth upgrading or not. I have been burnt too many times to remember purchasing the next latest and greatest gizmo, only to suffer early adoption blues when latest gizmo has issues. Whether that be software related or hardware.

All I know for a fact right now is the Note II is a damn fine piece of kit, damn fine. You'd be smart not jump on the early adaption bandwagon just because a product "promises" a greater user experience until its been put through its paces by everyday users. You only have to look at Apple to see the madness "oh a new Apple gizmo - must have must have ..."

On paper the Note 3 looks the business, (if many rumors are to be believed) and I for one hope its all that and more. If it is, and end users just wont shut up about how good it is, and I can plainly see I am missing out on a greater user experience by not having one, then no doubt I'll get one too. But it would have to be pretty damn impressive to lure me away from what I consider (Note II) the best phone available today.

Owning the best phone available today, I can sit back, relax, and patiently wait for others to do the testing for me. Read their reviews, opinions, likes and dislikes, well before I lay down my cold hard cash, and confident I have all the information I need in making an informed choice.
[Galaxy Note II General] shaolin95:
Well, I am going to hold to see if they come up with a bigger version. 5.7" is not going to cut it and with bigger competition is a dumb move if they limit it to just that size.

Unless HTC and Sony completely suck, if Note 3 is not 6" or at least offered in that size, it will be my good bye to the note family :/
[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
I agree, it's not just the Ppi that makes a 1080p display better than the others, but still my point stands. Obviously when manufacturers improve a display, they don't just increase the Ppi but also look to make better colors, better brightness (in general), whiter whites and deeper blacks. So taking that into consideration, I say 1080p display are noticeably better.

The One X has an INCREDIBLE 720p display, the best ever in fact in my opinion. It's incredibly bright, colors look amazing, it's sharp and all that good stuff. But again in my personal experience, when I first looked at the HTC One display I just couldn't believe what I was seeing, it's stands head and shoulders above any other 720p display (in my opinion).

I think what you mean (correct me if I'm wrong) is that a 720p display is perfectly fine and I agree BUT a 1080p display is definitely better and noticeably better.
[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
This from Brian at Anandtech pretty much sums up how I feel about PPI. But you have to realize I'm still using a Note 10.1 with 147PPI so that makes me easier to please than most. ;)

I think we’ve gotten to the point in the smartphone landscape where we have enough PPI, maybe a bit overkill honestly. There’s really no point in going much beyond the visual acuity limit, you could make an argument about nyquist and covering a few edge cases where the 50 percent square wave assumption built into 1 arcminute doesn’t hold up, but there’s no need to go much beyond this. Instead, now we need to get color accuracy tracking well and not drifting during a product’s lifespan. I think HTC continues to do a much better job than all the other Android OEMs, but only Apple is really taking things seriously here and taking the couple of dollar hit to have each panel calibrated. That said the HTC One’s display is a sight to behold, it is incredibly crisp and sharp in every condition you can throw at it.​
[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
I guess I can agree with that lol.

I'm not impressed by many things in the smartphone world, I have used many phones and I like many of them and they all have their strength. There's only 2 smartphones that REALLY impressed me beyond my expectations, the Note 2 when it came out because of the insane battery life, performance and features and the HTC One because of its second to none display. I guess that's why I say that it makes a difference, HTC is really good with displays.

Edit: the iPhone 4 also impressed the hell out of me the first time I saw the retina display. The HTC One's display destroys it, just saying.
