[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Aratheba:
How I'd love to say "hey you are right", but you are not.

Did you really try? Did you go looking for the stuff you moved into the external sd card (/storage/extSdCard/) instead of the internal storage (/storage/emulated/0/)?

I tried even on my galaxy note 3 to see if there's any difference and sadly there isn't. Same behaviour. Although on the note 3 is not such a problem cause I have 32gb for internal storage.

This is really a Shame! I don't want to be forced to root my device to solve such a issue. :(
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ChrisNee1988:
I notice a huge difference in available space for both storages and if you remove the sd card, those apps won't launch anymore. Pretty compelling to me that it works. I thought I saw the moved files in a hidden folder before but I can't find it now
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Aratheba:
that's true, if you remove the sdcard you cannot start the applications you moved anymore. And this makes me even more angry about it.

There's no reason for such a behaviour as no files was moved to external sdcard in any visible nor hidden directory. In fact there's even no change in terms of available storage space after moving apps.

Try to perform a search into your external sd card and tell me if you can find Them! :/
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ChrisNee1988:
Check root/mnt/asec. I think that's it
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Aratheba:
That dir is not the external sd card! Moreover there are only the app files and not the data files which are the heaviest ones in term of reserved space.

Try installing a big game like Asphalt 8 which uses 1.56GB of storage. Then look at the available space into the internal storage and the external sdcard. Try then moving it to sdcard and then look whether you have 1.56GB available space more than before, while at the same time you have 1.56gb less into the external sdcard.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ChrisNee1988:
I think that path is linked to the extsd card, and data like asphalt 8 data isn't movable by samsung's method cause the data wasn't downloaded through the play store, it was downloaded by the app. So the only way to move that is with root and something like foldermount

Also heres a quick link i found with some information on the asec folder. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13043783/android-move-app-to-sd
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Aratheba:
Interesting link. Unlucky me my adb setup is messed up, then I cannot check the mount point for /mnt/asec.

Anyway, Asphalt8 is entirely downloaded form the playstore. Just give a look to its size into the PlayStore description. :/
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ChrisNee1988:
Good point. I think samsung's method of apps to sd only works on the application files, not the data files that go in the android/data or android/obb folders. Like i menioned before, there are other ways of moving those files
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Aratheba:
Yep. If this is the case, this feature is pretty useless. :(:thumbdown:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ChrisNee1988:
It works well for the games i play like kingdom rush, plants vs zombies 2, dead trigger 2 and some others, it's saved me about 700mb. Actually now I remember how i saw those files before, if you pull the sd card out and put it in a computer, you'll see the asec folder there so i'm 100% sure its on the external sd card.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Aratheba:
That's right. The /mnt/asec is the mount point for the .android_secure into the external sdcard. But games like pvz2 and dead trigger 2 keep only application files and lib there. No data files. Then you won't save more than 25mb each! :/

Still remains a pretty useless feature. What a pity! :(
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ChrisNee1988:
my folder is about 700mb so thats a whole lot better than nothing lol
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] sergeantash:
Hey guys,

I'm now using a Universal (loving it!) but had an XDA2s (missing its speed, efficiency, size etc etc).

Trouble is, just sold the XDA2s on EBay for a measily £165 and annoyed that I've misplaced the Stylus just at the point of packaging the thing up ready to ship!

I don't suppose anyone have a spare stylus that they'd like to post to me if I were to send them a paypal payment? I work in the middle of nowhere an hour from my home town, so have no time to get to the O2 shop, would appreciate the favour!

I can't justify spending £10.00 in any shop anyway to buy 3 styluses that I have no use for, particularly having made such a loss on my poor XDA2s!

Here's me begging, hehe!! Appreciate your help!

Cheers, ASh
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] andychappers1:
:) I have a spare one how much are u willing to pay?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] sergeantash:
Hey Andy,

Well they seem to go for about £9 for a set of three on EBay, I'm just looking for a quick transaction and no having to wait around for auctions to end.

How much do you want? Appreciate your help!

Cheers, Ash
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] andychappers1:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P.Mobile:
ok.. first is how do i get rid of that google search bar on my home screen? also.. how come theres no notifaction light that blinks when getting a text ect.. is there a way to get some sort of light to come on when getting a notifaction?? how do i add more home screen cant figure that out either... lol sorry for all the questions.. i always went with samsung and HTC phone this is my first nexus.. and i really like it so far.. thanks guys.. o yea can i flash a custom kernel if im rocking stock rooted??
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TobiS87:
If you want to get rid of the search bar you have to install another launcher. You can't disable it when using the stock launcher.

The notification light should indeed light up in white color when you get a message. You can install LightFlow from the Play Store to give different notifications different colours.

To add a new home screen just pick an app from the applauncher and place it on the last homescreen on the right. That should be an empty one and automatically creates a new screen.

On stock you can of course flash a custom kernel. That should be no problem.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TobiS87:
Out of the box charging light doesn't work. If you use LightFlow now it should work. But it could be a bit wonky since it is not optimized for 4.4 yet, I guess.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] metalfan78:
If you have a new s3 then you need a modified recovery. You can save your nandroid to your internal as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
Do you own a newer or older S3 like metalfan78 asked? Makes a big difference these days as far as what works and what doesn't. I have had this phone since the day it was released. Never a problem with recoveries working or any of that. Normally I backup system(ROM), data, boot(kernel) before a new flash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rutheeMe:
I purchased my S3 in July 2012. Please advise how you back up your Rom and if it is possible to verify the backup.

Thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ma}{imus:
I had an issue with my GS3's custom recovery not recognizing my SD card. When I looked around a little more I realized I couldn't really see anything on the internal storage either. There were folders in the directory, but the were empty. It made it so I couldn't do what I should normally be able to accomplish. I tried reflashing custom recovery to no avail.

I ended up unrooting, returning to stock, reflashing custom recovery, rerooting, and reflashing my custom ROM. It was a bit of a process but everything is running like a charm.

Hey guys! Nice to be here :D

I've always loved this place 'cause I always found the answers I was looking for but now, fortunately and unfortunately I need to ask for some info more directly.

Well, to put it in a nutshell, I preordered an ADATA UD320 microUSB stick and it doesn't work on my 2nd Gen Nexus 7 that was just updated to Android 4.3.

Oddly, it does work with my Galaxy S2 that's running on Android 4.1.2

Thanks for taking the time to read about my problem!

Cheers! :)

Nexus Media Importer and/or (when rooted) Stickmount don't work?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] awknd_primate:
Well, I just got the Nexus a couple days ago and I don't want to root it for now, but the thing is that ADATA say that the UD320 is Plug and Play and doesn't require anything else. The stick should see the tablet as a host and I should get the message that removable storage was plugged in like I do on my S2.

I would try Nexus Media Importer, but it sucks that I have to use a third party app for something that should work without it. Now, I'm not complaining like a little baby because I truly appreciate this technology and the people that made it possible, but it would be so AWESOME if it actually worked :D

Anyway, thanks for the tips. If all else fails I'll try the Media Importer but I'm still hoping there could be some kind of fix...or at least people that have the same issue.

EDIT:

I eventually found this thread on Google Code:

code dot google.com in Android Issues with the tag 58277 (sorry, can't post links yet)

From what I understand, there seems to be a bug in Android 4.3 which seems to be preventing some units of Nexus 7 tablets from being able to host USB devices other than keyboards and mice...

Somewhere in the conversation (post #215) it's suggested by possibly a developer that this bug might be addressed in Android 4.4

If someone else is experiencing the same problem as I am and has more know-how about Android's more inner workings, I'd very much appreciate their take on this :)

I did try something that seemed to have worked. I used the instructions here:

otgtroubleshooter dot blogspot.cz in the article "android 4.3 issue 58277" (again, sorry, can't post links yet :( )

After this I used OTG Troubleshooter (Play Store) to see if it somehow resolved my problem. I got an "All OK!" after my first reboot, but my thumb drive still isn't being detected. Maybe this will work for others...

Well, hope to hear from someone soon...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] awknd_primate:
Finally managed to make it work

Well, today I had a bit more time to skim that Google Code thread and found out that for someone it was possible to access their microUSB stick by installing Total Commander and the plugin USB Stick Plugin :D

I just connect my UD320 to the Nexus 7 and the plugin asked if it should be used by default for said thumb drive and it totally works! I can move files over to my Nexus and vice-versa, and also files can be deleted from the stick. I don't know if it matters or not but I formatted my stick to FAT32 beforehand.

I guess OTG Troubleshooter wasn't completely lying, but it still doesn't work with other File Explorers, unfortunately, so I guess the bug will be fixed in Android 4.4. I hope :)

'Till then, I'm happy to have found a temporary work around and I hope other people will also benefit from this :D

Cheers and good luck, and please do share if any of you find any other options for making this work!
[Android Apps and Games] Ziida:
I just bought a new Android on eBay and it came with the water damage sticker indicating it got wet! Now I'm trying to test as much of the phone's functions as I can to make sure everything is A-OK!

I'm using Z-Device Test, but it doesn't seem to test most of the hardware, rather it reports on a lot of it. for instance the WiFi it just reported that I was connected, but it didn't test and see that for whatever reason my connection keeps dropping. I'm looking for an app that can really test all the functions of a phone. Is there an APP that exists for this?

When I got my N5, I used a HP Touchpad AC charger (up to 2.0 Amp output), this USB current measuring device http://dx.com/p/usb-av-usb-power-current-voltage-tester-translucent-blue-silver-235090, and then measured the input current to my Note 2, Nexus 5, and then Koolpad (linked on my previous post) with my Nexus 5 charging on it. The battery was about 55% charged so we were definitely in the constant current section of the battery charge (maximum current). The results were.

Note 2 Input current = 1.28A

Nexus 5 Input current = 1.08A

Koolpad (charging Nexus 5) Input current = 1.09A

The tranfser of power between the Qi charger and N5 isn't 100% efficient so the current into the N5 is something less than 1.09A. Guessing efficiency is 70-90% so that would mean 700mA to 900mA (0.7A - 0.9A) into the N5. I have only had the phone since Monday, but the charging time seems to be very similar between using a cord and the Koolpad Qi charger.

That is the only Qi charger I have tested so far. I don't know how others compare. While researching Qi chargers, I had read some people post that the Nokia DT-900 charged on the slower side..... no data to back that up.

I got the Zens wireless charger from Shop Android. When it came I fell in love with the design and ordered 2 more for a total of 3 to have around the house. BIggest mistake ever.

Sucks too because now I have 3 of these.

Don't know. It just stopped charging anything. Called Nokia, they said I have to buy another one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] entropism:
There's definitely some quality control issues with the Nokia chargers, but I can't imagine them saying you'd have to buy another. Their service is outstanding (experienced with multiple defective 920s) and I can't imagine they'd just go tell you to kick rocks.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] aooga:
Well, it was the equivalent. I had to pay $15 to ship it there (I had to use UPS, I couldn't just use a $5 flat rate box). then $10 for them to look at it, then free shipping on the way back. That's $25. I can buy another charger for that money.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I didn't actually "buy" the charger. It just came with my 920 from att. That was their reasoning behind me paying shipping charges.

It has the added benefit of being a portable charger as well. The only issue I have is that it is very specific about the placement of the phone, so it takes a little while to get used to the correct position to put it.

It does not get warm when charging, as I have left my phone on it the whole day with no real noticeable heat on it.

I have also just ordered the Nokia DT-900 as well for home (the LuguLake sits on my desk at work) . I was considering the Nokia DT-910, but with it being vertical, you are very limited to how you can place the phone you put on it, and I actually had issues using some of my previous phones on the DT-910 in the past (Nexus 4 and the Lumia 925, when used with a slimfit case).

I REALLY like the look of the Tylt VU, but the price, and it being a vertical unit puts me off.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] randpost:
You will like the DT-900. The combination of the DT-900 and the nexus 5 is excellent. You don't have to worry about placement of the phone. It will charge pretty much anywhere on the charger within reason. Average thickness cases won't inhibit the charging placement either.

No love for the nexus orb charger? I know the supplied charger that comes with the orb has an output of 1.7a probably to account for the not 100% efficiency. Ive left my n4 on it overnight with just a tad extra heat. Nothing I was worried about. And it props up your device to see the display.
