Hi,

I've literally searched my butt off to find anything (helpful!) on this but i didnt have much luck so far so i'm hoping someone in here might have an answer...

Actually i've got two questions but lets just start with the one from the topic:

How the heck do i change the directory to where bluetooth files are saved by default?! i've got an xda mini s and it got only about 32mb of free unused storage space. but i got a 1gb storage card that doesnt really help me much when sending files through bluetooth that are larger than 32mb... so i'd like to save directly to the mini-sd card. i've stumbled across some hint changing a registry value but that didnt work either because ... well... the registry key wasn't there. and a search (with PHM) after "/my documents" didnt bring any results either so i couldnt find where to change this path to the one i want it to be... active sync isnt an option either because i'm on a mac. the only reason that comes to my mind atm is buying a cardreader which i would rather not because it would be only for the pda and there just HAS to be a way to change the stupid default directory... of course the xda mini s has also wlan so why transfer through there? well that just leads to my second question...

is there any way (e.g. a certain program) that is able to process user information for SMB shares? i tried connecting to my smb share here on the ibook with total commander and with resco explorer... didnt work, just says it cant connect. tried dns name as well as ip address. i even tried ftp sharing (it actually worked) but the speed was kinda "poor" i have to say (50mbit wlan and the sucker didnt exceed 7KB/s)

Im really kinda stuck here concerning the data exchange between my mac and the PPC. the only thing i can do so far is using bluetooth (which is also damn slow) for files below 32mb - everything else is just plain impossible so far... i really looked forward to the windows mobile device again (had an ipaq 3950 years ago) after being so very disappointed of the palm t|x but well... something always screws up *sigh*

in hope, someone has an answer...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bsined:
I'm trying to increase the size of internal storage (/data) on my TL at the expense of emulated external storage (/storage/sdcard0). I found that FTF files contain partition-image.sin, which describes all 15 partitions on the phone. Using the partition modification guide for 2011 Xperias, I made the necessary adjustments in the partition image and userdata .sins, compiled the FTF, and flashed it. However, the result was only a decrease in size of external storage while internal storage was still measured at 1.97GB despite fdisk -l showing the new partition table. Is there another place that controls partition sizes? Or is it possible only with unlocked bootloaders? Is there anything similar to Samsung's PIT configs?

I don't want to use Link2SD because the phone has sufficient onboard memory, and turning off emulated external storage isn't an option either because I want to use the physical SD card only for photos, music, and nandroid backups.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] teidus:
Hello,

some months ago I make a modified partition table with some command line programs

Finally I've got a unique internal memory of 7,36 GB at least. IT'S TRUE! IT'S POSSIBLE! (with locked bootloader, stock kernel, rooted phone e CWM installed).

Unfortunately, I make this in a lot of time and I don't rember the right order of the command.

There are the steps that I make certainly:

1 Restore the swap between internal and external memory (if you do it). ITA: ripristinare lo swap tra la sdcard falsa e la sdcard (se è stato fatto...)

2 Rooting. ITA: rootare il telefono

3 Installing CWM. ITA:installare cwm

4 Mount /system/ in RW. ITA:montare /system in scrittura (ad esempio con es file explorer (abilita root explorer, clicca su root explorer e poi ci sono le opzioni di montaggio di /system))

5 Copy the partition commands (parted, mk2fs, resize2fs and similar (I can't post the link, search it)) in /system/bin/. ITA: trasferire in /system/bin (o /sbin ??) comandi partizionamento

6 Mount /system/ in RO. ITA: montare /system in sola lettura

7 Reboot in CWM. ITA: riavviare il telefono in recovery (spegni, accendi tenendo premuto vol. giu)

8 With ADB do this. ITA: avere in una cartella i comandi adb e aprire il prompt dei comandi in quella cartella e dare i seguenti comandi

9 Erase the false SDcard partition. ITA: cancellare partizione sdcard falsa

adb devices

adb shell

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

print

rm 15

Now we need to extend the partition 14 from these blocks: 1621 > 7818

and to extend the related filesystem.

Someone know how to extend partition and filesystem from command line?

Note:

Unforunately the command 'parted' doesn't support ext4 filesystem. So we can't do that with this command.

The command resize2fs seems doesn't work, infact when I execute that command it says always 'command not found'.

If somethings go wrong, you need to restore your phone with Sony Update Service. It's very very very simple.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] matt4321:
you look into the repartion method we used on the xoom,

it finds when the partitions start and end and then patches it to somewhere else to make the partitions bigger:

the patch is here: https://github.com/Schischu/xoom-ElementalX/commit/859d63b5cd9bd12ed778192234b0a1f5242df94b

the thread full of info is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2506997
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bsined:
So I've searched all over the place before and I can't find parted and other disk utilities for Android. Can you share the link?

It would be awesome if your method works.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] teidus:
I never see these threads.

It's an hardest work to apply this solution to Xperia... Do you think it's possible?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] matt4321:
I think it can be ported. It's in the kernel and not specific to any board/manufacturer
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] teidus:
Finally I do it! This is the result: (image in some time)

Here is the solution to unifing the two internal memory of the sony Xperia V and (?) related phones. Tested on Xperia V (LT25i) running Android 4.1.2

You need:

1 Rooted phone (link in some time)

2 CWM installed on phone (link in some time)

3 ADB installed on pc

4 Some partitioning commands files (link in some time)

5 4.1Swap.zip

Here is the solution:

1 Copy the partition commands in /external_sd/

2 Reboot in CWM (turn off, wait one minute, turn on while pressing a lot of time volume down button)

3 With ADB do this:

adb devices

adb shell

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

print

rm 15

rm 14

mkpartfs logical ext2 1621 7818

name 14 UserData

quit

chmod 777 /external_sd/tune2fs

chmod 777 /external_sd/e2fsck

cd external_sd

tune2fs -j /dev/block/mmcblk0p14

tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/block/mmcblk0p14

e2fsck -fpDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p14

The first boot will require some minutes. Wait! (Now you have an internal memory of 5,68 GB)

Apply this zip through CWM

4.1Swap.zip (link in some time) (This will swap the internal memory with the external memory.) (Thanks to tangjun269)

In CWM wipe cache and Dalvik Cache.

Done!

If somethings goes wrong, simply download and install Sony Update Service and make a restore.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bsined:
Awesome! I found some issues with the current versions of recovery, which require a couple of additional steps (including using 2 different recoveries), but overall this works. I'll put this into a more comprehensive guide applicable to all models regardless of their storage capacity.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I would be glad to get rid of this nons-sense internal SD, or make it a lot smaller. All my apps are system apps, I don'r want to bother with maintaining two (or three) different places. I am reading here, but this certainly is far beyond me, resp. I am scared.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bsined:
I've created a thorough guide on how to resize the partitions. I did not test it with removal of the emulated SD card altogether but if you aren't afraid to experiment, please do try and let me know if it works.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] teidus:
Hey bsines, I think is usefull to include in the tutorial the swap of the internal memory with the external sd.

It's only a simple zip.

What do you think?

Search 4.1Swap.zip in the forum.

OK so I rooted and over the pass few days I have noticed battery drops a lot. Before I could easily get 3-4 hrs screen on time but now there is only 1-2 hrs? Is this a known problem after you root? And is there anyways to fix. I use snapdragon guru before and after I rooted.

Thanks

Do yourself a favor and install Better Battery Stats. BBS will give you very detailed information about what wake locks are keeping your phone awake and draining your battery. In general, most people say to avoid "optimizing" and "battery saving apps" because they rely on activating the processor to function. Your best bet for great battery life is to minimize your wake locks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Especially guru which uses more battery than it saves
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dechronic:
In the thread above yours someone else has a similar issue and they found that it was tied into the wifi being turned on or turned on and then off.

Try turning off wifi, reboot the phone and go a day without using wifi (if possible) and see if that is the problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
One of the few things Snapdragon Battery Guru tries to do is dynamically switch your WiFi on and off, coincidence?

Of course as Rootsu said, in the process it will use more CPU cycles than it saves. You could use Llama or Tasker for this and many other tasks with a minimal footprint. Avoid the advertising platform that is Battery Guru all together.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmarrufo:
Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone was having my same problem. I have seen a few people talk about something similar, I just haven't found a fix that works.

I currently have my tf300t rocking the 04/07 build of the PACROM and have CWM based Recovery v6.0.4.5 (yes, it's touch enabled).

The rom runs very well. Stable and very fast. No complains, besides one.

My GPS will never lock onto anything.

Many people have similar issues in the past and there fix was to either stand in the best GPS location ever, until it locks, then it will work, or to flash a fix with some custom software.

Neither work for me and I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I'm sure there has to be someone out there with a similar issue and possibly a fix.

Thanks for the help in advance!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cap_kirk:
Hi,

I've a similar issue.

My tf300t is not able to get a location even with gps and wifi activated.

Also the compass behaviour is very wierd: it seems it's shifted by 90°.

I can remember I had this issue also with stock 4.2.1, now running CM11-M4 the same problem.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmarrufo:

From what I remember it was only when I switched to kitkat builds of any rom. But I don't want to say thats it for sure.

Some people seem to think it's due to the recovery that's installed.

Does anyone know anything?

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] xT29c:
I really want to get this phone, but my main concern would be the signal strength. I have very poor cell signal where I work. Only the iPhone 4s and Galaxy S4 maintained an acceptable signal at work. Other phones seem to constantly switch between 4G-LTE, 4G, G, and even E. Anything below 4G being unusable.

So how is this phone when it comes to the signal strength? Anyone else out there have a similar issue as me, and found the HTC One (M8) to show great reception?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] dc41:
I live in a dead spot for ATT coverage. My GS4 would only show 1-3 bars but the G4 LTE worked all the time. So far (one day) the One M8 shows about the same number of bars, and I've had no trouble with the connection. So bottom line (at least so far) I'd say it is equal in performance to the GS4.

HTH

Imo about the same as gs4, better than m7, WAY better than nexus 5. M8 WiFi better than any phone I have ever had.

well if it's the battery itself i think it's better if i just buy it 20€ is a new one because if i send my phone to the service it's going to cost 10€ to send it to them and back and i probably won't have it back in 2 weeks...

So this when i open the app, shoudn't the mA be higger than that?

edit: after unplugging it it has only 460 mA -.-'

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yvodelaere:
Hi all,

I'm trying to port software of the Galaxy grand 2 to the Moto g (same resolution and chipset)

but i'm stuck at porting the kernel.

the original size of the 4.3 moto g kernel is 10mb, when i extract it using android kitchen, replace the Bootclasspath with the one of the grand 2, the size is only 6,53MB and it doesn't work at all.

When i extract and directly repack the kernel (without changing bootclasspath) the size is 6,53MB too, and it doesnt work either. (boots directly into fastboot)

any idea what is going wrong?

Thanks!

PS: if anyone feels happy to help me with the porting, you're very welcome!!

Did u check sum of a kernel and ramdisk separatelly? Should be similar to this 10mb. Maybe ramdisk was not included?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yvodelaere:
Hi, thanks for your reply!

I have two files after unpacking the boot.img. Called: kernel and ramdisk.cpio.gz

The two files arent 10mb together. The ramdisk.cpio.gz is under 1 mb.

Hope you can help me out!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fabus:
Hi

Can u unpack ramdisk by e.q. 7zip?

Maybe it is corrupted or something?

Maybe block size differs when you are packing it together? It should be the same like kernel kitchen shows while unpacking... Or check on google/xda what block size should be used. I have not been building kernels for some time, so it can be named differently than "block" ;)

Once I had an issue with booting repacked kernel and the reason was block size (2048 in my zte tablet)... After changing it to default value while packing it started working like a charm :)

Hey, thanks again for your reply

I've tried a lot of things but i can't get it done. Maybe you could try to unpack and repack the boot.img for me? If i don't apply any changes at all, and flash the unpacked/repacked boot.img, my device drops intermediately into the bootloader.

It would be very nice if you can try to unpack/repack it for me!

thanks in advance
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfySim.org:
I think I found the solution

Hi yvodelaere,

The same thing happened to me.

you know what I did... ???

I extracted a ROM for Xperia Mini Pro and I put the moto G kernel to extract only the Kernel.

So the Kernel was extracted but the Ramdisk did not contained any files for me.

Later what I did is... I kept a CM ROM made for Moto G and made a Working folder out of that ROM.

And then I extracted the boot.img and magically it contained everything inside.

Hope the same will help for you too.

Thanks
[Oppo Find 5] WWW-Schizo:
Hi,

i just purchased a chinese OPPO Find 5 X909 phone with Android 4.4.4 and MT6592 CPU.

i switched it to english language.

My goal is to switch is to install Google Play Store.

I tried the following, but all of these issues failed, please help me:

1.) i downloaded a Google Play Store apk (4.2 and 4.6) and installed it, but a weird Android 4.4 virusscanner close everytime the app 1-2 seconds after the start. I stopped all apps that are related to a virusscanner, but didn´t had success, the behaviour was the same.

Inside the virusscanner, the language is complete in chinese, no chance to configurate something.

The name of the Virusscanner is Tencent QQ Pim Secure

Deinstallation isn´t possible,

2.) Although the CPU is another then the usual Find 5 one, i tried to install a new ROM from here: http://www.oppoforums.com/threads/find-5-coloros-v1-0-7i-beta.10372/

But when was on step "Press and hold the Power and Volume Down buttons to enter recovery mode", only chinese symbol was viewable and i didn´t knew what to select... :mad:

i didn´t tried something and stopped it, maybe this was a good idea for not bricking the phone

How can i stop or deinstall the chinese virus scanner software on Android 4.4.4?????
