Need root for that. You can also edit the script with a text edit app and reboot.

Shame that Google made a decision that will fan the flames for rooting rather than put them out. My guess is the Google next step will be to make rooting even more difficult in the next big OS update.

You will use the cloud and like it! All of those data capped Internet providers are counting on it. ;) Especially phone carriers like Verizon.

"Maps with me" has fixed the sd card access. So no need to root. Hopefully others will be as good as these app developers.

As I see it, it's simply a case of getting your app to create is own directory on the sd card.

Too simple?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
Any app can create its own directory/folders/files on external SD and read/write them. Other apps can even read those files (EG: Polaris opening a Hancock document). The problem is only the app that created a directory/folder/file can write to them, delete them, or move them (EG: Polaris edits to a Hancock document have to be saved as a new document Polaris creates on SD).

Is there any way to downgrade from 4.4.2 US back to 4.3 (both stock)? I'm getting horizontal lines from time to time during video, didn't have this issue in 4.3. I've already tried a clean flash from odin.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] blinkingled:
Nope, no way to go back - I have tried everything on mine. Since you are stock and video corruption might mean it a hardware issue - call Samsung support and have them repair it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] grandcentral:
Video Corruption

Try this and see if fixes issue. It solved mine. Go into settings, device, screen mode (tap it) then change to dynamic. (make certain adapter is not checked as that caused issues for me)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] elzeus:
I thought it was hardware at too first but it started in 4.4.2 never happened in 4.3 and the pro 12.2 model suffers from it too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEasAq2ik_A that model has only had 4.4.2 maybe they ported the bug over to ours since it's the same hardware.

I'll try it the next time it happens right now im testing forced gpu rendering (I use cinematic display mode normally), as suggested in this video comment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEasAq2ik_A it seems it is a software bug.

Does anyone know if you can goto the Colombian version if you are already on the US version of 4.4.2? I want to see if that one suffers from the video corruption.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] OscarMike16:
The Colombian version suffers from this too.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
Playing videos is pretty much a "most used" function on any tablet. I looked on the N12 forum and couldn't find any posts about this. There have only been a couple of posts from affected owners here. If it affected every 4.4 Pro/Note you'd think it would be a front page thread on their respective forums. The Chromecast/notification panel issue doesn't appear to affect every 4.4 user either. Since everyone with issues has the same h/w and ROM version that folks without issues are running my guess is it's a compatibility issue with a specific app or apps. And it might not be the app actually running and affected that's causing the issue. For those with the issue(s), do they occur after a hard reset and before apps and setting are reapplied? You might want to start looking for specific attributes those with issues have in common.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] elzeus:
I get what you're saying but we've just started having people update to 4.4.2 for our version and the 12.2 model has had at least one stability update in April that may have fixed the issue for their version the youtube video is from February and the 12.2 wasn't even on sale in the US until early March. Here at the bottom of the thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2645374&page=2) they too have the lines in the scrap book app, when I get my lines in the videos I'll test scrap book too (their lines were also in Feb).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
The question is how many people are affected and what the cause is not whether or not there's a problem. It's definitely s/w because it didn't exist in 4.3. The bigger question is whose s/w is causing the issue - Google's, Samsung's, or a third party app that's not playing well with the video drivers. Since the problem's not universal I'm guessing the latter. Hard resetting and seeing if the problem's still there with no apps installed would exonerate/implicate Samsung/Google.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] RussellEstridge25:
May as well chime in here and say I'm not affected. Running stock Columbian ROM KitKat on a smp600 rooted.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Elim:
Same here and when you see who many people are already updated to KK then this should be a big problem also here in xda but I see only a very small group of useres which are affected.

Therefore I think that this is no bug but a installation or setting problem.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] RussellEstridge25:
I concur.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalOllie:
Hi..

I have a couple of questions about recovery mode and Nandroid backups. Easiest one first.. Does Nandroid back up everything, right done to home screen layout, personal folders, widgets etc.. an EXACT copy of the phone?

Secondly, I installed CWM/TWRP, and was able to boot into it to install my ROM, however, once the ROM is on the phone, I seem to lose the ability to boot into recovery mode. The CWM app shows that the recovery is installed, however the usual volume- and power key just starts the phone normally. I've put on an Xposed mod, which puts recovery on the power menu, with reboot, screenshot etc, however, that does the same.. Just reboots the phone.

Is this normal, and is it safe to keep pushing recovery to the phone via PC every time I need to use it?

Lastly, my phone is nicely rooted, however SuperSu only seems to grant access when set to "allow". On 4.1.2 I used to have it set to "prompt", however selecting this seems to block root access. I've tested it with an SU checker and a root checker, and with "prompt" selected, it tells me the phone isn't rooted. It's ok having it set to "allow", but not ideal, as I prefer total control over what is, and isn't allowed root access.

Any help and suggestions gratefully recieved. I'm on Android 4.3, .201 on an Xperia SP.

Thanks!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhnet:
1. Recovery backup usually backs up these things..

-Boot (kernel)

-System partition (ROM with system apps. But not app data)

-Data (apps and app data- with all apks you installed, user settings, accounts etc. Including UI layout. But not sdcard data)

-Cache

*Philz recovery has a nice option to backup internal sdcard (data/media)-very useful!

# So, if you choose the option "custom backup", you can select which component to backup in TWRP/Philz. (CWM has custom restore only).

2. Installing a ROM will erase any recovery installed in the system partition (which is the case if locked bootloader. If BL unlocked, can install a custom kernel with recovery, which won't get erased by ROM installing because it's with the kernel, not in system partition).

#So, you might have to install the recovery every time after flashing a ROM (of course, unless the ROM has pre-installed recovery).

3. SuperSU on "prompt" mode works well for me. Try to clear the data of SuperSu app and see.. or see whether there's a new update..

Hope this is of some help to you ;)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalOllie:
Thanks.. I've done a Nandroid backup with TWRP.. Can I move the folder from the SD Card to my laptop without any problems, or does it put files anywhere else? I gather doing it with CWM makes transferring to PC quite difficult, which is why I opted to go with TWRP.

Also, if I clear the data on SuperSu, will I lose any of the permissions it has already granted? I don't fancy setting up Greenify all over again!

Cheers!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhnet:
You mean, you want to copy the backup files to your laptop for safe keeping? Yes, you can copy those files to laptop/pc and then copy back to proper backup folder whenever you want to make a restore. TWRP makes backup files under TWRP folder (below many subfolders of course) in internal sdcard ("sdcard" ) or external SD ("sdcard1" ), depending on where you choose to backup. You can easily copy back and forth from there, especially external SD because you can even remove it and read/write with a pc if the phone is screwed up. (Check whether files are copied properly and make sure 'safely remove usb drive' etc in pc. If a small corruption in files when copying, md5 checksum tests will fail and recovery would refuse to use those backup files for restore).

CWM, stores them under clockworkmod folder in external SD (easy access), but in data/media/clockworkmod if you chose internal sdcard. If you're familiar with ADB, you can use pull/push commands to copy back and forth from there to a pc. Philz recovery stores things under same clockworkmod, but under proper "sdcard" though.. so easy access. (Or at least it has an option to look for "sdcard" under /data/media/0, which is a proper place where internal "sdcard" is mounted..). Feel free to ask if any of above is not clear to you.. ;)

About SuperSU, yes.. clearing data (Apps>All>SuperSU>Clear data) of the app will erase all yes/no su permission granted settings.. like going back to where you began. But it won't do anything to greenify settings. I have a feeling that you didn't flash SuperSU update after you flashed a new ROM.. is it? You also have to flash SuperSU update zip after ROM flashing, so proper su binaries get installed to the new ROM (I think ;)). Otherwise you won't get proper root. So, you did/not flash SuperSU update after ROM flashing?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalOllie:
Hi..

I did flash SuperSu 1.93 update after flashing the ROM, and then after a reboot, flashed it to 1.94. I've cleared the data, but it still doesn't offer a prompt. When set to "prompt", Root Checker tells me the device isn't rooted.. As soon as I set it back to "Grant access", it's fine.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhnet:
Strange..! No idea what's causing your issue.. but try this:

-Open SuperSu app. "Apps" column should be empty because you cleared its data, no?

-Set to "prompt" mode.

-Open Terminal Emulator (get from Google play if not present)

-type "su -v" (without quotes) and press enter (checking su version). Should show something like "1.93:SUPERSU"

-then type "su" and press enter. See whether any su prompt.

-then type "id" and press enter. What's the output?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalOllie:
With prompt mode set:

Nothing happens when trying SU if set to prompt.

I noticed in terminal it reports as being 1.93, so tried reflashing in recovery to 1.94, however it still reports as 1.93. The app is 1.94 though?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalOllie:
When set to grant, this is the output..
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhnet:
I too get 1.93 even though I also flashed latest version. It's the version of su binary. No issues for me. So it shouldn't be the problem.

Wanted to see "id" output after "su" (if "uid=0" like output means root access). Anyway, when "prompt", your su command seems to get stuck.. is it? Doesn't any message saying "su denied" appear after keeping it for a while?

Other thing you can try is to reinstall SuperSU app to see whether it makes any difference. Under SuperSU app settings, there's an option cleanup>reinstall (from google play). Can't be sure that it works, but an option to try. Keep a CWM/TWRP back up before trying it, just in case..
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalOllie:
Done a reinstall, which went ok.. It updated the binaries, though still says 1.93 in Terminal. I don't get any message in Terminal on prompt mode.. Here's a screenshot of the "id" after "SU" while on "grant".

The other thing I've noticed is that the configured apps list is always empty, although apps do show in the log if I call them up.. For example, terminal shows, with a green hash next to it. Red if I set it to prompt.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhnet:
Yup, it doesn't come in app list if set to grant/deny for me too. Could be normal.

I've run out of ideas.. :D One last checking...

Can you check with Root Validator app here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.rootvalidator

My one is like this

See what's the difference in prompt/grant modes for you.

#And, do this command in terminal to see su permissions

ls -l /system/xbin/su

#What I would do as a last resort is to reflash the rom and root again (AFTER taking a full cwm backup). Btw, is the ROM you flashed pre-rooted? Is there another su binary in another (conflict?) location like /system/bin..? (Root Validator app would indicate about it anyway). For this you can do..

find /system -name "su"

#also, check whether daemonsu is running..

ps |grep -w daemonsu

Could you think of anything else that might cause this?

Those outputs are similar to mine. Sorry mate.. no idea what to do next. Suggest making a query in Chainfire's SuperSU thread. Don't forget to attach the logcat in your post (after attempting in "prompt" mode).

Catlog app is an easier way to get logcats (need root for that, so run that app in grant mode when collecting logcat).
