[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mateooo:
Hi devs,

let me introduce the raison which i suggest your interest:

- i've got a Samsung GT-I9505 4.3 rooted

- 3 day ago, i deleted all my photos from picassa app (and the trash just after, yes bull****! :good: )

I'm a sysadmin so after some googling and no one photo taken (to keep the maximum of possibility) , i've tried a recovery of those deleted files.

From Linux, i've a done a 'adb shell su -c "cat /dev/block/mmcblk0" > img.raw' to keep the full internal memory (16 GB : normal).

Then i test :

- photorec

- foremost

I'm able to recover approximately 28000 JPG. Every images from apps, mails, mms, rss, facebook, google+, linkedIn..

Some photos (>1 Mo) which i sent or received are present but my camera's library is not found it seems... not a little part of them...

So, i try again.

Retest the "adb dump" from windows this time + VHD conversion and finally i mount virtual disk.

Recovery's program this time:

- stellarphoenixphotorecovery.exe

>>> Same results...

I don't understand where i'm wrong...

Files should be here no? the delete has normally just erase the index...

I'm desperate.. WTF

Does someone can explain me why the file's recovery doesn't work ?

Or another detail i can try ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ygdroid:
Hi,

I also have same issue. Did you solve it?

Mounted mmcblk0p29 with vhd. Recuva finds tousands of thumbnails of my deleted photos but not a singel original one.

Anybody that can explain this?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EzZn0:
Hi!

I just updated some apps from google play, I think it was google search, text to speech and some apps and a game that I have on my phone. I later get a phone call from a friend and when I hang up I get this message that gapps have been crashed. I pressed okay and thought nothing more than that. But then I get this warning signs about more and more things are crashing. I decide to turn my phone off and now it is stuck on the kernel screen (DorimanX Kernel)

I use ReVolt v4.3 and I have done nothing else with the phone except updating some apps. I can boot to recovery so I tried to clean the dalvik cache and the regular cache but it still wont start.

EDIT: I solved it by also using the fix permission that is an option in CWM. It is working alright for now. I guess it was some issues with the new apps permission that made the phone stuck on boot screen!

[Paranoid Android Q&A] o0beaner:
Has device encryption been tested in AOSPA's current iteration?

I attempted to encrypt my device, and after entering my PIN to begin the process, the background just changed to a crypto-themed Android guy, and never did anything else. The device never reboots, and the encryption process never begins.

I am able to home out of the Encryption app, and continue using the phone as usual.

I'm running 4.4 Beta 6 (Manta) and the encryption is not working for me either.

I plug in charger, get it started, the usually android robot appears, then the tablet reboots. Instead of then encrypting the device, it just reboots.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hansof:
After nine months of perfect function, my Jasjar has suddenly a strange malfunction: Tapping on the scroll bar or scroll buttons, the Jasjar ignores the scrolling and behaves as if I were tapping half a centimeter towards to the left (for instance, moving the cursor or marking text in Words).

I thought it would be corrected when I performed a hard reset and restored the software with the excellent backup program Spb backup. After performing the hard reset, the first step is to calibrate the tapping of the stylus. That should have corrected the malfunction, but it did not.

Scrolling is still possible by using the arrow buttons or the navigation pad, but this method is painfully slow if I have an average document in Word.

Anybody got any ideas??
[Ornate TrueSmart] pmhesse:
Greetings,

I received my TrueSmart a few days ago. Promptly broke my Flappy Bird record on it (44!) and got a few other apps on there.

Tuesday, I was wearing the watch while I was getting some exercise. I believe that is kind of the point of it (

O

utdoor

Mate

). It had a full charge overnight and I hadn't used it much during the day. Mid-afternoon Tuesday I noticed it wouldn't turn on when I went to wake it up.

I brought it home to the charger Tuesday night and plugged it in. The behavior then (as now) is as in this video:

[YOUTUBE]hg4ZZw0A88E[/YOUTUBE].

Basically the screen comes on, shows the battery charging screen, then turns off. Repeat. Forever.

I have not flashed anything to it. I have not unscrewed a screw on it. I haven't entered recovery mode.

Questions:

- Can it be fixed?

- How do I get a hold of Omate if it can't?

Since the card I received with the device indicated that opening the case to replace the battery would void my warranty, I would prefer that Omate replace the battery and keep my warranty intact. I'd like to use this device, and showering with it is kind of desirable. I have a neat app I'm developing for it... but right now I can't since it's dead.

Thanks for your help.
[Ornate TrueSmart] pmhesse:
If it matters, it's a 1/8 1900. Original shipping firmware.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Lokifish Marz:
Opening the back DOES NOT VOID THE WARRANTY (where are people getting this garbage info from). The only thing it voids is the liquid damage portion of the warranty with regards to water resistance.

Using a needle try to gently lift up the pins in the dock. This sometimes resolves both charging and connection to the PC issues. If this does not work;

Open the back, pull the battery, reseat the battery and try to charge it.
[Ornate TrueSmart] pmhesse:
The garbage info is coming from the card that came with my watch:

"You may open your TrueSmart, but that will require you to break a seal sticker located on one of the battery cover screws and thus void your warranty. Omate cannot guarantee the waterproofness of the TrueSmart once the battery cover has been opened." (Photo of the card at imgur dot com slash wBo2Jur)

I would actually prefer my watch to be weather and life-resistant, and so I'd rather Omate fix this under warranty rather than have me void mine.

I tried pulling up the pogo pins - one was definitely jacked up, but I fixed it as best as I could. Unfortunately that didn't do the trick. So how do I get Omate's help fixing it? Thanks.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Lokifish Marz:
Well either Omate is wrong, (the card) or Omate is wrong (update on KS regarding warranty).

Chances are, your TS is not "weather and life-resistant" to begin with as it was never even tested properly to begin with.

If you are going to wait to get it serviced then expect to wait a long time. Your only two options are to send the TS back to China (at least a month turn around) or wait til they have service centers in your country (an even longer wait).
[Ornate TrueSmart] pmhesse:
I sense a theme here.

I'm going to try my co-worker's dock to see if that makes any difference. Then I guess I'll bite the bullet and pull the battery. Thanks for your help.
[Ornate TrueSmart] zdiamant:
I had same issue.. After wearing the watch while exercising and sweating, I noticed the screen frizzing out, then would not charge at all. Contacted Omate, and at first they said to wait until service center opens up in my country (USA). I recently received another email stating that I should mail the watch back to Hong Kong. FedEx charges $80 for shipping.. I am debating on whether I should send it back or wait for service center (tough to justify $80 on an item I paid $200)

ZD
[Ornate TrueSmart] pmhesse:
How did you contact them? Thanks.

[Ornate TrueSmart] b4d5h0t:
My callisto 100, which is very similar to the omate if not identical, did the same thing, wouldnt wake wouldnt light up when i plugged the charger in... i just removed the back took out the battery for 30 secs and put it back in and it booted up again without a problem.

I notice it tends to be sluggish waking if i leave the camera app open when it sleeps and that one time it didnt wake at all i had also had the camera app running. So now i always close the camera manually before letting it sleep
[Ornate TrueSmart] lilbyrdie:
The kickstarter update I see on the warranty simply says that the regular warranty does not cover water damage. It says nothing about the regular warranty. Since there is no warranty on water damage, the card that comes with the watch is consistent; it says opening the back will "void your warranty." The only warranty we have isn't related to water, therefore it's the main warranty that is void if you open the back cover.

But here's the deal -- and why I think you are correct that the card, and even the post, is misleading. To access the SD card slot and the battery (which a spare one came with mine) requires removing the back. The instructions that come with the device are very clear on this. There's a good chance that the legal implications of the spare battery and SD card access are that opening the back wouldn't void one's warranty -- otherwise, why would it come with a spare battery and a hidden memory card slot on the instruction sheet? And why would it come with a screw driver and extra screws?

So, not having to worry about the moisture warranty (there is none) and knowing the instructions tell you how to get to the SD card slot -- under the battery -- seems fair game to open it to reset it.

It's all very confusing. Of course, I didn't get a developer edition without reason.

Popping the four screws without messing up the stickers is also quite easy. While in there removing the battery to reset the device, drop in an SD card for some extra storage.

Yes, it worked for me. Pressing and holding the buttons doesn't seem to be able to trigger a hard reset from that state, but popping the battery works easily enough. I might have to start carrying around the screw driver. ;)
[Ornate TrueSmart] pmhesse:
Thanks lilbyrdie. After waiting two weeks for any sort of response from Omate (hint: got none) I cracked it open based on your advice. Pulling the battery worked like magic. :good: I almost wanted to wire in some sort of access to the battery so that I could drain the battery without cracking the watch. However that was going to require work and I think I'll just back to doing wrist curls wearing this behemoth.
[Ornate TrueSmart] radmir1948:
Two years ago I bought Omate true smart watch phone. It works two weeks, then it fails. Their dock station doesn't work properly. I suspect the main reason is all contacts between battery, watch, cover, dock station, usb.

If you look on them you will see: all of them are made from some kind of brass, not gold. I'm not sure if the battery has internal controller, and you can't charge directly from AC, which has charging current greater than 0.9 ma.

I lost any hope to launch this fake device.

Radmir

Hi.

On pure Android 4.4.2, like CyanogenMOD 11 or nexus phones, when you swype all the way to the left you get to a google now screen.

Is there a way to add this very same screen, to be accessed on this very same way to the stock Android 4.4.2 from Samsung?

If not, is there a way to install Google Now Launcher on this phone? This is not the Google Now version, I'm not looking to make it a google now version due to some (few) things that I like on Touchwiz, like the multi screen, and don't want to lose some apps, like the shealth.

Btw, no root installed yet.

It took three months for the 32GB to happen for the S4 and that was only due to customers bugging them about it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omgi0wn:
Yeah I'm concerned they won't be offering it. I don't understand why most of the US carriers won't.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rushless:
Easier to milk it like Munson. Only offer the 16gb and charge $50 more than everybody else. They would have done the same thing with the M8 if HTC offered one to them.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namroc1:
I am going to try to hold out for the 32gb. My S3 had 32gb, but my S4 only had 16gb and that was a mistake. i would love the new htc but the battery does not come out so that is a no go.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lodaserves:
32GB is pretty much and i want it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guadalupeohara:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lodaserves:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chamberc:
Hopefully they'll release it soon. I can't imagine 32gb being the minimum these days... and by the way, I have zero games on my 32gb S4 and it's only got about 8 GB free!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namroc1:
I'm not sure if you are interested but I found an app last night that allows me to redirect apps to save on my SD card. It is called foldermount. I just don't know how it will work on the S5 since the sdcard setting are different in kit kat
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guadalupeohara:
Yea.. 32gb memory. Can you explain it.. Must be a good opportunity. But i think is it low capacity bear ?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BzBz:
vzw will do like they did with the s4 and wait until they reach their target of 16gb devices sold before relasing the 32gb. they know from experience the large majority of their customer base won't spend extra for the 32gb on release day. the few people begging for the 32gb didn't change the availability time frame last year and it won't change it this year. plus demand for the s5 seems to be lackluster.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lodaserves:
Yeah seems your kinda right about it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guadalupeohara:
In this last release they give 32 gb. I think it is good to use another. But why they Bugging with this ?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmydee62:
Extended memory

Yes it would be nice to see 32gb. but you can always bump up external memory to 128gb. which is awesome. I put 64gb on mine and with 16gb. internal that gives me 80gb. so I think I'm set very for now.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rushless:
Does not help for apps. All depends on the users and the apps they have.

It seems obvious this is a milking strategy, so probably depends on if they offer 32gb when launch sales slow down. I am not too sure they will this time. One less sku to manage. Yep, they have multiple ones with Apple, but Apple is pushy like that and controls supply.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] nty123:
i really like Xblast tools and how you can change the clock color and lock screen dots and pattern. that's mostly the reason why i have it but, the one problem that has me on the verge of deleting it is, when you get notifications (any kind) it shows up on your lock screen and for text messages, anyone can read it if they turn on your screen which is annoying. Any way to get around this or similar apps like Xblast tools? Thanks.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] zasuncion:
This is the second time happening. The first time I came from the previously supported Viper One Rom version from sprint, and when I flashed 5.8 I lose my recovery and just get stuck into bootloader. The second time I was coming from the recent Dirty Unicorns Rom, and the same thing happened. I'm currently using the latest Philz Recovery, and I did wipe my phone numerous times before flashing. Am I installing the wrong file? or Am I doing something else wrong? Also the only way it seems to come back from flashing the rom is using an RUU to get me back to stock. Flashing another ROM after ViperOne failing puts me in a bootloop.
