[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris74!:
Hi, Because of the issue I described below. I need to have a custom recovery to have acces to the internal memory from the recovery menu.

Currently my phone is not rooted. If I understand all correct I need to flash a recovery like Philz.

Will this affect the data which is now stored on my phone? This since that's my main goal, regain access to that data and copy it. If flashing my phone would erase this, there is no need for me to flash it at all.

All i need is access to the internal SD memory.

Thanks for any replies

I have a replacement phone, so would like to transfer some data from the internal SD memory to an external SD card. Problem is... the phone is not powered on long enough to do this!

I tried to clear the cache, also booted in safe mode (also shuts down in safe mode).

My only concern is to get some data from the internal SD memory. Any suggestions for a workaround?

I've so far followed these instructions:

Errors while downloading from internal memory

Hi,

I'm trying to get access to the internal memory of my Sansung Galaxy S4 GT-i9300. This since the phone seems to be in some sort of bootloop. Before going back to factory setting i want to secure all data which is stored on the phone. Mainly my whatsapp history.

I have rooted my phone and installed Philz as custom recovery. I have downloaded the latest drivers for my phone and installed adb on my win7-64 client (dutch installation).

Now in a shell I run:

pull adb /data/media c:\gebruikers\me\ff

I get the following error:

cannot create directory c:]gebruikers\me\ff\Samsung/Music/etc... : No such file or directory

Can anyone help me to point out what I'm doing wrong here?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Can I have a screenshot of the error please?

Also, have you read:

General > Sticky roll-up thread > S3 storage (data recovery)?

I have laid out the adb commands fully here.

Please can you use proper thread titles?

I was a great help and pushed me approx. 90% on my way. Now i'm stuck on the last part.

Does the folder "ff" exist?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris74!:
the directory ff is existing. However the subfolder Samsung was not. So i now created this and ran the same command again. And... it's copying all data from my mobile!!!

Now i can go back to factory settings or try a custom ROM since i'm not that happy with touchwizz.

Just awesum! I thank you for this forum and the help provided.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Oh ok. Thats good. Its odd you had to create samsung though but never mind. The weird thing was how after samsung, the \ turned to /
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris74!:
The Samsung folder justy contains some sample music & video.

I could have seen this myself, guess it just got a bit late yesturday.

Anyway, great help. I will now see if i can bring my S3 back to live or turn it in for repair.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Mahoooner:
Hello. I am trying to unroot my device. I fully unrooted the device through the settings in SUPER SU. I tried to update the firmware at this point and it still says modified. I factory reset the system, and I still receive the modified firmware.

From my understanding, the only way to get back to stock firmware is to flash it using ODIN. Is there any other way?

If I am correct, I have searched high and low for the stock firmware for Rogers for the I467M. Where can I download this?

Thanks for your help!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Noticed that all (but one) email to SMS texts I get have what appears to be random 3 to 5 digit numbers for the from instead of the actual email address it came from.

Even messages from the same email address (monitoring site for example) arrive with different ID's which makes them all look like different senders.

I have one that works, but have not been able to figure how or what they are doing to make it work. I've tried generating messages myself using all kinds of header adjustments and can't duplicate what or how they are making it work.

The result is and I have different inboxs for every email to SMS message I get regardless of the source instead of just a few inboxes with the same types of messages in them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Example:

Below are 4 text messages. the bottom two are from the same from address. The 2nd one is from the one that works but I can't figure out what they are doing to make it work. And the top is from Amazon... which does the same thing. Each message from them (from the same address) ends up looking like some random from name.

On my previous phone this didn't happen. email to sms always showed the email address of the sender.

Hi, I just got my Nexus 5 yesterday and everyone is fine until I install a certificate that is required to connect to my University's wireless network.

The installation is fine, but after that I got a warning saying network may be monitored. I know I can get rid of it temporarily by swipe it away, but is there any way to disable this warning permanently? (see the attachment if my wording is confusing)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitl3ss:
I am seeing this same thing in relation to the use of my own personal certificates. The issue stems from the use of private CA cert which I use for my local lan and vpn. Google has decided to enable CA certificate pinning as a security measure I guess hopefully there is a way to disable this.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pesvardur:
I really screwed this one up guys. I was trying to upgrade to the new 4.3 TW based roms and accidentally installed all the knox stuff and all that, but I'm not really worried about the warranty.

What I am worried about though is that now, no matter what I try I get stuck in a boot loop. I have formatted my external SD card, reinstalled official CWM recovery, wiped everything more often than I can count and tried TW based roms, official ROM, AOSP based ROMs and nothing works. In most cases this is what happens after install:

1. The boot animation comes up

2. It actually boots

3. Then immediately force shutdowns

4. Boot loop

I have tried everything. I even tried just going back to stock ROM but I got an error in heimdall.

Does anybody have any solutions for me. I feel like i've done every tutorial on the internet for 2 days now and I just don't know what to do!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socah:
Ok Bro I had same problem.

Facts: if your stock is 4.2 that's why you can't flash - 4.3 forbids downgrade. Try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2250824 and find XXUEMJ7 - you should be able to flash it. Did it today - writing from phone ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pesvardur:
Ah, thing is I'm on Linux now and can't use ODIN . But are you saying my problem is that I'm trying to flash 4.3 roms, that I have to have 4.2.2 roms? Or vice versa? Also, I must have ****ed up even further because now I can't even print-pit in heimdall.

EDIT: Well anyway, I get home in about 3 hours and then I'll have a windows machine. I'll try it then. Will update when that's done.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socah:
I was saying that you probably tried flash 4.2 rom on 4.3 rom you have on phone - which is impossible due to Knox lock that will not allow to downgrade. Just download 4.3 rom and flash it, heimdall could do the job too.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pesvardur:
Ah but I've been trying exclusively to install 4.3 roms. But I haven't yet tried it on Odin.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pesvardur:
Well, thanks guy. Flashing the stock rom worked perfectly FROM ODIN. For some reason it just would not work on my Linux machine using Heimdall. But I feel like I tried this yesterday... although that was at like 3:30 am so I might have hallucinated it.

Anyway, you are a god and I hope for all the luck in the world to you.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pesvardur:
Just a quick update: I found out the reason I was stuck in the boot animation and it crashing was in fact because the battery is faulty. I thought it was because flashing the ROMS wasn't working, but it was because the battery was shutting down at random intervals no matter what the charge
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilspoons:
So I currently have a Nexus 4, and I'm waiting for my new Nexus 5 to be shipped to me so I can give the Nexus 4 to my wife.

I have two LG WCP-300 wireless chargers for my N4 and about 80% of the time you take it off the charging pad a wakelock keeps the CPU from going in to deep sleep. I then have to reboot the phone.

Does the Nexus 5 still do this?

If it is fixed, did KitKat fix the issue (i.e. will the N4 be fixed too) or is there some sort of hardware change in the N5 that fixed it?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nduanetesh:
I think the short answer is "no", but here's the long answer...

I've never had the wakelock issue that causes the phone to drain like crazy after it's been removed from a wireless charger, but the problem I do have is the wakelock keeps the phone from sleeping while it's on the charger. So my phone fully charges in a couple of hours when I go to bed, but by the time I grab it in the morning the battery has drained to 75 or 80%. Luckily I haven't had the issue where this continues to be a problem throughout the day.

I upgraded to KitKat yesterday (from factory image, without a wipe), but I had the same problem overnight. I kind of doubt it will help, but I'm considering wiping my phone to see if that will fix the issue. I'm hoping that whatever bug it was in 4.3 got fixed, but my lack of a wipe let it creep into 4.4. Unlikely, I know, but I can hope. Sorry for the bad news.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilspoons:
OK - I've started using my Nexus 5 full-time and I'm using the wireless charger - a LG WCP-300, which should be high enough quality to be a "reliable" charger for the N4/N5. I'll report back if I have the same issue I had with 4.3 and the N4, as the results here seem to be mixed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobaka:
same problem here with nexus 4 and no change after updating to 4.4

the problem is 2 part

1) fast drain if the phone is left on the carger when fully charged

(if removed when full it will discharge much more slowly)

2) charging never restarts no matter how low the battery goes unless the power to the charger is interrupted

or the phone is removed from the charger and replaced.

forcing a reboot with tasker does not restart charging

I put the charger on an outlet timer that turns it off for 1 minute at 6am.

that restarts the charging so I can wake up with a nearly full charge.

this works. if you set the timer for 1-3 hours before your normal wakeup

time you're gonna have a nearly full charge when you get up because most

of the time the charger will not turn off for quite awhile after 100 charge is reached

and it will stay at 100% until the charger turns off (charger light turns to green from blue).

there may be other chargers that don't have the same problem.

mine is the round flat charger you see on ebay that comes with different color rings for about $22
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nduanetesh:
I'm using the same charger, but I don't think this is charger specific. My girlfriend's S3 (which I think is on 4.2.1) charges perfectly with several different wireless chargers using an add-on wireless charging receiver.

Clever solution, btw. But it would be great if this would just work the way it's supposed to. :-/

I use yahoo mail through the S4/Android Email app. When I forward pictures from the Gallery app to myself via email, a lot of pictures are not viewable in Yahoo Mail or after downloading from Yahoo Web Mail to PC. I think any pictures that are richtone or which get changed into PNG are not viewable. I think a "auto" picture which is not editted on the phone will be okay. Examples:

-picture of a flower I took for my wife in auto mode, uneditted, is viewable in the Yahoo Web Mail. (JPG)

-picture of our house in Richtone HDR is not viewable in Yahoo Web Mail. Not viewable after downloading to PC. However, if I copy the JPG file from S4 to PC via USB, it is viewable.

-picture of kids that I editted via the S4 Gallery app is not viewable in Yahoo Web Mail (PNG) However, if I copy the PNG file from S4 to PC via USB, it is viewable.

Why does Samsung change the picture from JPG to PNG when editting?!?! Is there a setting for this???

Thanks!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jsilver73:
Custom ROM v Stock ROM

My wife has neat rom on her phone, she likes that because she is not interested in mods etc, in some ways it seems smooth and is certainly very stable. However, I prefer CM based ROMs with custom kernels ala dorimanx or Apolo, and recently my battery life and performance on 4.3.1 compared to my wifes 4.1.2 has far outstripped my her neatrom. That being said, my phone is softbricked until I can replace the mini usb tomorrow as I had an issue today with my set up, so wiped rom to put a backup on, and then discovered I have no root and thus can't get back into recovery and have no rom to boot into, no usb means no odin, thus I am without phone until I get usb fixed. I guess thats the long and short of messing around with custom v stock, custom rom = more risk but potentially greater potential to implement the latest code, stock ROM = safe and reliable.

All that I have said is just my opinion based on my experience, I urge you to get your own and have fun doing it :D

I'm not a dev, so some of those words means almost nothing to me, but...I'm paying attention, and trying to learn.

However, in other news, I got the android.phone message to stop popping up constantly. I tried flashing gapps 4.1, which stopped it for a short period (to be honest, I'm not sure how this helped, but there are no gapps in the rom anyway...). I also removed phone from the recent apps (there were two instances), and the process didn't force close again until I reopened the dialer.

This allowed me to use the rom. While testing, I see that I cannot select numbers from the Sense keyboard (it actually force closes), and touch/holding the top row for the numbers doesn't work either (I have numbers in my Gmail password, so it was a little restrictive). The settings button to the left of the space bar is grayed out. I'm using SwiftKey instead, and I used that to login to the Google Apps.

Power + Home doesn't work for screenshots. Any idea why? As this is Sense based, I thought that it would behave in the same manner?
