> How do I get it to my internal SD Card

If you are on the device downloading then it will go to '/storage/emulated/0/Download'. '0' is the internal SD card. Just copy it up one directory so it will be at the top level of the SD card.

If it is on your PC you can put it there through MTP -- the Windows directory 'N900T/Phone' -- or through ADB. ADB requires that it is enabled on the device in 'Settings-->Developer Options' (search 'enable developer options'). Then on the PC in a command prompt window:

adb push "whatever the file is" /storage/emulated/0

Then you boot into TWRP, hit the button 'Install', explore to the file you put on the SD card. After seeing the nice explorer in TWRP you'll know that you could have saved the zip just about anywhere, like the Download directory.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Pashovski:
Thanks!

Sorry if Im being super thick, but when you say "internal SD card" do you mean the internal storage, and not the Micro SD card? Because if I put the Micro SD card in the GN3 it says "blank SD card". After downloading the file and going to TWRP my options of select storage are:

Internal Storage (19580MB)

Micro SDcard (0MB)

USB Storage (0MB)

I can only select internal storage. So should I just install it from internal storage?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Frank Westlake:
Yes.

Internal Storage (19580MB)

AKA: SDCARD, internal sdcard, '/sdcard', fixed sdcard, non-removable sdcard , external sdcard .

Micro SDcard (0MB)

AKA: Removable sdcard, external sdcard.

Note that both have 'external sdcard'. Originally 'sdcard' was for the phone (not on your list) and they added a fixed 'external sdcard' for shared storage and the 'sdcard' was known as an internal sdcard. Then when they added a removable sdcard the term 'external sdcard' began to cause confusion. People thought of the removable sdcard as an external sdcard, so the external sdcard was thought to be the internal sdcard.

The ability exists for there to be multiple removable sdcards so be prepared for more confusion.

Yes.

I did it then rebooted. Now I get an endless loop of Blank Card/Mount/Format/Erasing , and then it goes right back to blank/unmounted. Brand New Card too.

At this point you should go back to where you got the fix and report the problem. I don't have Android 4.4++ so I can't help.

I am getting "Android is upgrading" at every reboot for 50+ apps after rooting Stock 4.4.2

What i did was..

1. Unlocked bootloader

2. Enabled ART

3. Installed some user applications

4. Installed CWM Touch 6.0.4.5

-->Double checked for the issue. No such issues at reboot.

5. Rooted via CWM method using SuperSU 1.94, phone rebooted and Android is upgrading dialogue appeared for 102 apps. Phone booted without errors.

-->Rebooted to check for the issue. No such issues at reboot yet.

6. Flashed Sony Sound Enhancement mod by ibanez7. here is the link

-->ISSUE REAPPEARED. I tried uninstalling Walkman and its sub apps but this issue is not going away whatsoever i do. There might be some issue with libraries in this mod.

please take a look at the MOD maybe someone can help. :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
its because of art. you have 50 apps that arent very art compatible, so they get rebuilt every boot. i have 2 apps that rebuild when booting up with art enabled every time. switch to dalvik and itll stop.

[HTC One Mini] brokaaa:
hey there,

I have a rooted One Mini which runs on Android 4.3 at the moment. A few days ago, I have recieved the update info for Kitkat 4.4.2.

Now I know that I can not use the regular update on a rooted phone and for the time beeing, I don't even feel the need to upgrade. However, I was wondering about the general problem:

First, I thought about doing a full backup (Nandroid), then flashing back to stock, getting the official update and then flashing the nandroid backup back. However, I realized that makes no sense, since a nandroid backup contains all partitions and therefore would simply overwrite the updated system...right?

Now the question is: what is the most convenient way to stay updated on a rooted phone? Do I really need to flash back to stock, do the update and then go through the root process again each time?

thanks for any info and clarifying!

brokaaa
[HTC One Mini] theodorius123:
normally the devs here are much faster in providing an updated ROM then many carriers are with giving you an OTA ;)
[HTC One Mini] cmvienneau:
I'd go back to stock and take the update. 4.3 was a mistake in my opinion. Att skipped it completely and went from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 all in one update. Lol or just flash cm11 which is a better choice yet seeing as its already pretty stable and very fast.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livelysins96:
I am aware of the guides the nice people have come up with but is there an easier way such as an application? I remember, before I flashed back firmware, it was ten times easier and required no adb or commands on my end. I also flashed it over CWM which I had at the time.

Thanks.

What ROM are you currently on? Are you rooted? If on a Jellybean ROM and rooted just use Freegee from the market to install latest TWRP or Cwm instantly with no fuss. If you are on a KitKat ROM you need to downgrade which can be a long process.

one minute only after pressing a key. The original firmware was a german one.

What to do now?!

I've been having the same sort of problems after I went to the 2.24, though I used xelecin's build.

It gets very laggy. Also when people call in while I'm already on a call, it won't let me answer the other one. Few other problems that are escaping me right now. I've hard reset with no luck. I may just go back to 2.17 but I'm tempted to wait for the official TMobile, though who know how long that will take.

Unfortunately it seems none of those apps on the Play Store work on the Nexus 4, actually they appear to work on very few phones or is the fact they won't work on rooted phones?

I have a HTC One M8. I have a sdcard with 2 partitions. /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 is vfat, /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 is ext4. I've used this to mount the sdcard:

mount -o remount,rw /
mkdir /storage/sdcard3
mount -o remount,ro /

mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /storage/sdcard3
mkdir /storage/sdcard0/user-data

As root in a terminal, I can read and write to /storage/sdcard0/user-data no problem, however none of the apps can see it, not even file managers with root access. Maybe there is an extra step involved for KitKat? I'm also using the HandleExternalStorage Xposed module, which at least helps with the vfat partition.

Hello guys. I need an advice pls.

I flashed a galaxy s4 i9500 (international) with sokp Rom. (Aosp based 4.4 Rom)

Now I want to flash a pure stock 4.4 Rom. Which I never had on my device. I started with custom Roms from 4.2.2, moved to 4.3 and then the custom Sokp Rom. So I need words of advice.

Is there a flashable latest stock rom which I can flash in twrp? If yes, are the steps the same as flashing custom Rom?

Where can I get a link if such?

Thanks in advance.

You can flash through odin a stock rom from sammobile or a custom rom generated from stock from xda where you can flash the zip file you pput on the microsd card for i.e. with recovery. But original stock rom which might be used to restore original condition (for warranty reasons for i.e.) should be flashed with odin or kies.

Great thread. To add to recommendations.

If rooted, use bootlocker app to keep bootloader locked until you need it unlocked and use flashify or similar to keep stick recovery until you need otherwise. This will make your phone a lot less vulnerable to thieves.
[Nexus 5 General] Web_E:
I would like to add, move to 2G network when using Wifi or voice calls are more important and you ain't doing any related internet activities. Huge save in battery. If you are rooted use xposed and GravityBox to change it in one click.. Or use Tasker to automate such changes. Whatsapp and fb notification works well in 2g data network.

If rooted, use greenify to stop continuous background apps.. (facebook was one of the biggest battery hog due to this). People with lot of newsreader app can be beneficial

Use an anti theft app. If rooted use rooted mode. I prefer avast anti theft.. You can wipe, and lock if stolen, locate it.. It installs with random name, hides itself from application drawer .. On sim change, it sends out notification to pre set alternative number and you can take control of your phone again.. The user will not know anything..

I bought premium licence just to say thanks to avast because I got back my Nexus after 1 month being stolen.. That too without police help and it went 1500km away...(and in India, least help from police about tracing, they just take a formal complain and throw it afterwards..[emoji20]).. I was lucky that last user didn't knew how to flash factory image.. [emoji14]

New useful sticky thread! :good:

Explanations well detailed but I'd like to add my 2 cents on a couple of points:

• Q25 you forgot to mention TWRP backups. (/sdcard/TWRP/Backups/Serial number/<HERE>
[Nexus 5 General] gee2012:
If users who want to mod and flash are not able to use a terminal emulator, they also should not use adb also imo ;) I think you may underestimate the interested user who wants to learn something.
[Nexus 5 General] Primokorn:
lol No I don't. The flashable zip remains an alternative and avoids typos ;) From my actual experience some folks don't like Terminal commands even if it works well.
[Nexus 5 General] samersh72:
I want that users avoid using tools, zips... as possible (not offending) for learning purpose. Just 2 simple commands in T. Emulator.

Also, my 2¢.....there's no camera glitch. When you attribute time/date stamps to photos, it engages location and clock stand by. DERP!!! I own my own mobile repair business and deal with N5's all the time aside from my four, never once have I seen a battery drain in stand by with "no background processes running".

Gaming

Hello,

I am new to Nexus 5, had it for a week. I like it a lot, but I feel that it's gaming performance needs a boost. This is because games like Syder Arcade HD, Tiny Thief, Type Rider and Real Racing 3 are getting low frames for me (around 15-25). How would I get easily more frames per second?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Sorry wrong sub-forum, but I still would appreciate if someone has tip or two to share.
[Nexus 5 General] D.D.P.:
That's the fact a large number of N5 owners are having a difficult time coming to terms with. If you increase performance, you're going to have to sacrifice battery life to and extent. You can't have a maximum of both. :) But there are ways to balance. (User preference)

Regularly discharging your battery is detrimental to its longevity. One should keep it charged over 50%, and only discharge it from time to time.

Oh, is this true? I'm confused now. My battery drain is quite bad.

let it discharge til 14% or 15% and not til 0%

Very true, and leaving your device on the charger while you sleep also deteriorates battery cell lifespan.
[Nexus 5 General] natadecocolococo:
Oh, this I do. I leave it on until 14%, then charge it. However after charging the battery goes down fast! Still figuring out what causes the battery drain. I will post screen shots once the battery cycle is done.

This I am guilty of. :crying: Charging while sleeping is very convenient. I guess I should quit this habit.
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Well, I've never faced an issue with "degrading battery life" because it was left overnight for a charge in any of the previous phones which I've used. I usually stick with a phone for a year/year and a half and I can say that the battery life was still intact.
[Nexus 5 General] D.D.P.:
It simply shortens the lifespan of the cell. It wouldn't be an incredibly noticeable difference. But temperature flux and charge times will change.
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
I'm glad that I haven't noticed those changes even now. I use current widget to monitor the charging speeds and the charge per 5 mins(we can set it) is more or less the same from the time that I had bought the device.

I do play a lot of games on all devices which I have owned and even though I can't say about the temperature flux as I haven't scrutinized it from start to end, I haven't faced any problems of overheating or thermal throttling.
[Nexus 5 General] D.D.P.:
I'm glad you have experienced the same as I. However, I stick by the superiority I find in the N5
[Nexus 5 General] coolnow:
Another myth perpetuated by XDA; modern batteries and phones have built in measures to stop charging when close to 100% (which is why you'll suddenly drop to 99%-97% when using it in the morning. You can leave it plugged in safely throughout the night. Not sure about wireless charging as it seems to induce a lot of heat for some people, some times, which is indeed detrimental to the battery.
