[HTC One V] hellfroze:
I'm running a couple of hand-me-down One Vs for lightweight duty (one is a music streamer, one is a 2nd phone line just for kicks) and neither have much installed, so there is plenty of room on "Internal Storage" (184MB used/747MB available). But without an SD card, it refuses to let me take a picture, save a playlist, download an APK, add a new ringtone, etc.

Is there anyway I can get it to just use the Internal Storage for that sort of thing? Can I "repartition" that internal gigabyte somehow? Maybe some creative symlinks? I really don't want to get SD cards just to add a ringtone!

The both run SlimBean (4.1) if that makes any difference.

Thanks!
[HTC One V] heavy_metal_man:
That depends, with root access you can copy ringtones from an sdcard to the root storage, and then move them to the default ringtone folder in the system. They may need to be the same file type which is probably .ogg but its worth a try :) as far a music is concerned you could make a folder in the root storage called music and place them all on there without issue, only trouble will be finding a music player that will look for them there. The default android player probably won't so it will need to be 3rd party :) if you need help change the ringtones to .ogg just ask :)

[HTC One Max] herzig.grant:
so after i managed to root my verizon one max, i downloaded market helper which spoofs your device so you can trick the play store into thinking you have a different device. I spoofed my device as a nexus 10 and it said i needed to reboot to save the changes. When it rebooted it just stays at htc screen and then the screen goes dark... I tried to go to twrp recovery but it wouldnt boot into recovery. i relocked my bootloader and when i type adb devices in command prompt, it says my device isnt connected when its in fastboot usb mode. and i tried flashing the ruu for verizon one max but it failed somehow...any one know what to do?

:confused:
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
To check for devices in fastboot type fastboot devices. Adb devices is for when ur phone is booted.

Likely the market spoofer changed your build.prop which borked it on restart.

What error when flashing verizon ruu?
[HTC One Max] herzig.grant:
Thank you for replying!

thanks for the information and when i typed in fastboot flash zip 0P3PIMG.zip, everything seemed fine until it said FAILED. i cant remember. i dont have access to my phone right now otherwise i would retry but i cant.

do you have an idea how to fix this?
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
Really juat need to know how far it got before it failed. Was it the encrypted or decrypted ruu? Encrypted requires s on to flash. Make sure the OP3 img file is on the true external sd and not the internal sd. Those kinds of things...
[HTC One Max] herzig.grant:
i meant fix my build.prop not the flashing problem
[HTC One Max] herzig.grant:
but im s-off so does it matter?

i think it was encrypted...

let my try again with a decrypted

thanks again
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
If your tried to flash an ruu and it even got started you likely need to make that work. Im not sure the exact order of what the ruu does but it may have failed on something simple and important that cannot be fixed now just by you working on the build.prop. It 'may' be fixable piece by piece but I wouldnt recommend it.

Flashing the ruu correctly will take you to stock and fix anything that you did.
[HTC One Max] herzig.grant:
Thank you and i want to know have you ever flashed a ruu through cmd? if so, can you tell me what to type?

Im not testing your experience or anything, i just think a second opinion always helps
[HTC One Max] herzig.grant:
OMG it worked....

Thank you sooooo much for your time.

Turns out I needed to do the decrypted Thu
[HTC One Max] dottat:
Shouldn't require encrypted. The only require is if you are s-on you must you encrypted ruu that matches or exceeds you current software version.

S-off will flash either encrypted or decrypted.

[HTC Desire X] energeiakos:
I had had a SanDisc 32 GB class 10 and everything was ok, until the time in which I needed more than 30GB in my HTC Desire X. So, I decided to buy the Kingston microSD 64 GB class 10. Even though our phone has official limit at 32 GB, after googling I noticed that I would not have problem with this card. So I bought it.

From the begin I had a few problems. Very often, about 2-3 times every day, it was required to unmount - mount the card for reading some files or for renaming them.

... it was not big problem for me. But from yesterday, I cannot have access to the sd. I see a message Damaged SD card, SD card is damaged, try reformatting it. And if I try reformatting it, nothing happens. Also in settings - storage I cannot mount the card, and I just see that SD card is unavailable...

What I have to do now? To try a format from windows 7? If so, what format? Fat32, ntfs or something else?

Maybe it is better to use the warranty?

Thank you in advance...
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
For sdcard, try to format to fat32 (should work either using gparted or windows format tools).
[HTC Desire X] realCyphox:
try to format your sdcard with the offical tool from the sdcard association:

https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/

if you wanna format your sdcard the right way, THIS IS THE TOOL TO GO!

The SD Formatter was created specifically for memory cards using the SD/SDHC/SDXC standards

if you still have problems, try to get a replacement from your dealer or sandisk directly.

if that doesnt help, try a different brand like kingston, samsung, etc....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skeetch79:
I545OYUEMJ7

Deodexed, Debloated and ZipAligned!​

This ROM is for Developer Edition S4's on Verizon I545OYUEMJ7 only!

This is created from the Developer Edition S4 I545OYUEMJ7 (4.3) system image.​

I have enjoyed this phone ever since I purchased it last September, but I have always felt that it was bogged down with too much bloatware and fluff. I had created this ROM for my own use, but I realized that it could benefit all users on I545OYUEMJ7. The ROM is simply the system/app directory rooted (SuperSU), deodexed, zipaligned and debloated. It also contains Busybox, Android Terminal, Titanium Backup, Google Voice and JRummy's Root Browser. You will not find the boot image included nor the modems or radios (All of that can be found here). I have also included the ability within the ROM to apply the Samsung Galaxy S4 Volume Modification (i.e. Stock, Moderate and Very Loud) through Android Terminal (more on that later).

The amount of bloat that has been removed is incredible. Some of the files, for example, are as follows:

....and probably a bunch more that I didn't list!

Now, about those sounds mods...

How to apply Sound Mods:

1. Open Android Terminal

2. Type, without quotes, 'su' (grant Root Access if asked)

3. Type the following:

- cd /system/volume

- Once in system/volume directory type any of these without quotes

'./stock.sh' to apply stock volume

'./moderate.sh' to apply moderate volume boost

'./loud.sh' to apply loud volume boost

4. In order for these changes to take effect you must reboot the phone. You can type, without quotes, 'reboot' within Android Terminal to reboot phone.

What are the installation instructions?

How to install:

1. Download/Transfer to either Internal or External Phone memory

2. Reboot to Custom Recovery (I personally use Philz Touch Recovery)

3. Make Nandroid Backup

4. Data/Factory Reset Phone

5. Install Zip

6. Reboot. Enjoy! - First boot will take between 1-3 minutes

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zz1049:
Hey everyone,

I put a stock image of 4.3 on my phone - T Mobile to remove root, update to 4.4.2; then realized that it's really not worth the issues I'm dealing with in customizing the phone. I really regret doing this!!! I have no idea how to roll it back because when I do so in odin 3.07 or 3.09 with UVUEMK2 I have to reflash the "stock boot img" in order to get my S4 back alive as trying to roll it back that way "FAILS" in odin and breaks the stock boot and the phone asks me to plug it in and use kies to troubleshoot; when I just flash the bootloader and it's fine again.

ULTIMATELY:

1- Can ANYONE tell me how I can roll it back to 4.3 until I JUMP to my S5 in April?

2- If not how does one go about removing - ROOT - by Chainfire or CF-AutoRoot?

=> so I can at least trade in my phone for the 5 and be done with this mess in a month.

Reason I want 4.3 is because I had much more control over the system and was able to perform tethering tasks and APN tricks that have been blocked by the Kitkat update.

Thank you to whomever has the capacity to help me I've spent all day trying to figure it out and I have a 4 page grad paper I'm postponing because I gotta figure this out first, for some apparent reason. So any help APPRECIATED!!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gillion:
I may be giving you bad news but last time I checked the ota notice said you cannot roll back ... I have yet yo see anyone roll back from KitKat official on the 9500

The new boot loader is pretty persistent at rollback prevention.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zz1049:
How about in terms of Unrooting? CF-Autoroot has the option in SuperUser app to unroot. I'm guessing this will do the trick for when I hand the phone back over to T-Mo? Or have they added things to circumvent removing SU?

I basically don't want to do it now (Figure out how to unroot) if I don't have to quite yet.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VogonP0et:
Once you have installed 4.4.2 with the matching boot loader, you cannot install 4.3 with Odin. However you can restore an Nandroid backup of your old 4.3 setup from recovery, so the phone will be back to how it was before the upgrade.

If you want to unroot, you can fire up SuperSU and select the "Full Unroot" option from the settings tab.

In order to restore APN settings on 4.4.2, I have always taken a backup of them on earlier versions using this great app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.APNBackupRestore

In order to make it work on 4.4.2, you move the APK from /Data/App to /System/priv-app using Root Explorer or similar, then reboot. Disable the ICS check in the settings section of APNBackupRestore, and you're good to go!

For tethering by USB, this works very well for me:

Nandroid recovery

Hi VogonP0et,

I have a Sprint S4. I also upgraded OTA to 4.4.2 and am regretting it. I was not rooted when upgrading. Haven't been rooted for a few months. I do not like 4.4.2 restrictive sd card. Screwed up my Doc's to Go and Sygic nav.

I do have a nandroid recovery back up from last summer. MDL i believe.

Do I understand you correctly, I can root 4.4.2 reinstall TWRP. Then do a recovery back to my earlier version. Is this correct?

Thanks in advance.

Jim
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VogonP0et:
Clean install rooted 4.4.2

Hi Jim

You can only restore a 4.3 or 4.4.2 backup, not an earlier version.

I have an International i9505 jfltexx, although I believe the process would be the same for you. Here's what I did:

- Nandroid backup to the external SD card first job! Copy to the PC for safety.

- Power off the phone, and manually re-start in Download mode.

- Flash original factory KitKat 4.4.2 firmware of choice using Odin (I used V3.09), which will include the matching boot loader.

- Allow the phone to start up, which will take some time.

- Power off the phone, and manually re-start in Download mode.

- Use Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root to root it, using the Odin that comes in the package. Find it here (3rd post):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2219803

- phone will re-start when the process is complete

- I did a full wipe at this point, and although it's a bit of a pain to restore all your data with Titanium backup it gives a problem-free start.

- Full wipe made my Sygic work properly again!

- Before you drop in a custom recovery, it is a good idea to use Chainfire's Triangle Away to reset the flash counter. It seems that the Flash Counter needs to be zero for successful operation of Mobile Odin in future.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.triangleaway

- once you have set up your Google Play account, download SGS4Flasher here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.bvgemert.flasher

- SGS4Flasher will drop in the recovery of your choice. I use and recommend TWRP personally.

- You're good to go, and Flash Counter is still zero!

- Now you can restore an earlier Nandroid backup of a 4.3 ROM, or install a new custom 4.3 or 4.4.2 ROM

After this I installed the custom ROM of my choice, which is Echoe V16 based on 4.4.2. Echoe makes all the limitations and restrictions of 4.4.2 go away, but there must be a custom ROM suitable for you. I don't think you can use Echoe on your phone, but you may have a favourite. I have to say that doing the full wipe was an important step to make it all work well, so worth the hassle.

The only concern I have is that your backup at version at MDL may actually be Android 4.2, which I don't think you can use directly. However Titanium Backup can extract the data from a Nandroid backup to restore. I have spent quite a bit of time understanding the 4.4.2 limitations and restrictions, and found ways to make it do what I want now. Overall I'm happy, but it has taken some time to get there.

Good Luck!

Hi guys... I have the worst problem since I bought this brilliant device: I was playing with a game (installed on the mini SD), and when I tried to save it told me I had not enough storage space. Puzzled, I ended the game and went back to the normal pda functions...just to find out my SD is not recognized anymore. Zero, nada. Disappeared. Tried to get it out and in again (a million times), and I don't even get the sound I used to get. I tried fitting the minisd to the sd adapter and put it in an old zire: the card works!Everything is there. But the wizard won't recognize it anymore. Tried soft reset and it didn't help... Not so keen on hard resetting unless it is the only option but...I'm dazed...It doesn't see it anymore.I admit I was playing the game at 240 mhhz (overclocked) but I had played it a million times already and everything was smooth...

I've never unlocked the extended rom (Storage_card_2), so i have just Storage Card, a 1 Gig Sandisk mini SD. Still, it dissapears a couple of times a day, and i must soft reset my wizard to appear again. Very, very frustrating :cry:

Missing data

Something similar has happened to mine as well....

I turned my PDA on and accessed the storage card just like I do on any other day, only to find that all of the files had disappeared!! Everything had gone - but when I went into the memory setting, where it tells you how much space is used on the card it is still showing up as being half full i.e. the data is still there but not showing up on explorer!!

What is this all about??!! It has never happened to me before!!

Just wish I could offer an explanation on how to fix this... :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jaganath_sr:
You can probably read those files in Windows. This memory card disappearing problem seems to occur frequently with Wizard. Lookslike some program keeps corrupting the memory card.

Format the card in Windows and put it back in your phone, it will most likely work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] FirkinSavage:
If you format the card, surely it will wipe everything that was on there in the first place..?!

There must be a way of retrieving those missing files somehow without resorting to formatting...

The weird thing is, today I transferred a single file from my desktop to the Sd card (whilst in my XDA) and suddenly some of the missing files appeared...?!

Now to find the rest of them....

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] hotvico:
It was an sd problem...as soon as I have formatted it started to work again...

I initially took the KitKat ota when it rolled out, but to me, it broke a lot on the phone more than it created benefits, so I downgraded back to the very last ota before KitKat.

Can I take advantage of anything else the newest update brought to the phone, like the camera, if it's any better than it'd prior ones?

How would I go about updating the radio and other stuff if I can?
