Hey Guys.

Help! I Accidentally deleted my vacation photos :(:crying: I am planning to use the method described here. For that I need to know /dev/block userdata partition.

Any other method too is welcome.

Any help will be massively appreciated.

Thanks.

Can anybody recommend a wireless/windproof microphone for Android devices?

Ideally wireless but possibly wired. It's mainly for recording video's outdoors and sometimes I will be in the hills so will need to be windproof. I've tried to search but cant narrow results down enough and just getting loads and loads of bluetooth headphones etc.

So does anybody use this kind of setup and what device would you recommend? :)

[General Accessories] daniel_loft:
Talking with the guys at XDA-TV could also be a starting point.

You could also narrow down the list by giving more details like any size requirements, what's the recording device, etc.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] skymomma:
i am in nyc also (park slope, brooklyn, to be exact) and i have had many situations where i was somehow "bumped off" the data connection. i notice that now i have either a "G" or an "E" in the data area (which is, I guess, for GRPS or EDGE). There are 2 access point names.

wap.voicestream.com

wap.internet2.com

might need to reset them. here's how:

Start > Settings > connections (tab) > connections (tap icon) > tap "manage existing connections" or if unavailable, "add a new modem connection" > select "t-mobile data" > enter name for connection (doesn't matter what) > select a modem: Cellular line (GRPS) > enter access point name (either of the 2 mentioned above) > Finish (leave next page blank).

hope this helps.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjoostema:
Hi all! I am coming from an N5 and thus far have been pleased with the m8. Couple slight problems maybe someone could shed some light on for me. I have used the search function regarding these two matters and have to googled only to find limited info and no solutions. Sooooo....

1)I cannot boot into stock recovery. RIght now I would rather not root until I learn this device and read these threads more. I can get into the bootloader no prob but when I select recovery as an option, my device will simply reboot normally 80% of the time. If it does go somewhere, it's just an icon of a phone with a red triangle in the middle. No amount of button combos brings me to any menu and I have to hold all three buttons to escape the red-triangle-of-hell's screen.

2)Battery reporting seems to be whacked. I had 95% the rebooted and it went to 85%. Has only happened once but is a bit concerning as this phone is less than 12 hours old...

Has anyone else experienced these oddities and if so, how did you resolve them? Thank you for any help folks. Appreciate you guys a ton!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S550:
1) you normally never want to boot into the stock recovery. There isn't much useful there. If you do, you'll see the red triangle Andy bring operated on screen.

2) it needs some time for the battery estimate logic to settle down and work smoothly. A few charging cycles should do it. 12 hours won't!

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rolldog:
Does anyone know how I can put Samsung Link on my Galaxy S5? All Galaxy models have had it (it was once called Allshare), but this app is one of the main reasons why I've stuck with Samsung products. Not only for the auto backup to my desktop PC whenever I snap a picture or record a video (I can still set that up through just about any cloud service, but it still requires the extra step of downloading it onto my PC), but I use it extensively when I'm traveling. If I need a file or document, porn, etc from one of my PCs at home, Samsung Link allows me to access all of my registered devices remotely and download the file no matter where I am. It also allows me to stream video to any of my Samsung TVs in the house. I know I can do this through other apps, but Samsung Link allowed me to do all of these. This is probably the only app from Samsung that I've used on a daily basis since owning my Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. AT&T is my service provider, and I bet they took this app off their phones before loading it up with their stuff.

Just got my S5, came from a Droid Charge (which, after getting community radios from XDA I loved quite a bit for years) and am having some issues with the alarm clock. Thankfully I still set my alarm on my Charge as a backup or I would have been late for work this morning. The issues are as follows:

1. Smart alarm just doesn't seem to work? I have the exact same settings on my S5 as I do on my Charge (albeit with different tones) - Alarm Type: Sound, Alarm Tone: Serene Morning, Snooze: Off, Smart Alarm: On (3 minutes, Beginning of Life). Yet when I set my alarm it goes off exactly at the time it was set for (unlike on my Charge where the smart alarm would start 3 minutes earlier and crescendo) and just plays the alarm tone.

2. The alarm just turns off at 1 minute and never rings again? I guess this is working as intended as my gf says it works this way on her S3 as well, but really? what a terrible design for an alarm?

Think I'm going to find a third party app unless anyone else has a suggestion?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] claudiohi:
Enable "Sleep" on your alarm and you must choose "Zz" instead of "X" when your alarm rings.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iamnamja:
Hi,

When I first got my Verizon Galaxy Note 2, I joined the bandwagon and unlocked my phone.

Now I want to upgrade it to the latest firmware ROM, but I was wondering how I would go about doing this.

Currently, my android version says its 4.1.1. Do I just download a firmware for 4.3 or 4.4 and it would work? Or do I need to update the firmware first? And what's the best way to go about doing this?

Also, if someone could also recommend a ROM that is stable I would really appreciate it.

I'm sure these questions are asked millions of times, but reading them didn't really help me understand... Maybe I'm just too new at this stuff. Thanks again for all your help!

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-WolF:
I'm running CM11 and a quick look the phone tells me that it have Portuguese for brazil and portugal, alternatively try any latin american stock rom: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zehmistah:
Oh man, thank you for the link, I just might use that. Just a refresher, to flash It I would first unlock the bootloader, flash a new recovery, wipe, and then flash the new rom?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-WolF:
yep, but you don't need to flash a custom recovery for a Stock ROM.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zehmistah:
Thank you!!! and one more question, the new rom should still be capable of getting OTA updates from whatever carrier's rom I flashed, correct?

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-WolF:
First, don't panic.

Second, explain how do you unlock the bootloader, did you use this?

Third, what does the bootloader screen (Power+VolDown) says in the second to last line before the first break (LOCKED/UNLOCKED).

Fourth, if it says UNLOCKED, try to flash the ROM using this, otherwise try to unlock the bootloader again with the link i posted in the second point.

And don't worry as long as you can enter fastboot mode (bootloader) you can fix everything, and nothing of the things you are doing affects fastboot mode.

They all want money.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-WolF:
Can you elaborate?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
You can add more languages without a custom ROM using MoreLocale 2.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zehmistah:
I used that webstie to unlock the bootloader, and when I went to fastboot it did say UNLOCKED status code: 3.

I left it plugged into my PC last night because It wouldn't turn off, and I think it wasn't charging because now it's off and won't turn on. I'm going to plug it into a wall charger and wait a few to check if it's on.

After that, I'll try the method you said.

EDIT: Seems like charging doesn't work either, weird... because it said it was connecting to my PC last night in Fastboot
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-WolF:
That's weird, doing the steps in that page don't make changes big enough in the phone to make something like that happen.

What does it says in the line below UNLOCKED, USB CONNECTED or CONNECT USB DATA CABLE while you had it connected to your pc/wall?

Why don't you try to use another cable?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zehmistah:
I don't remember what it said.

I've tried a few different wall chargers and cables. They seem to charge my other phones but not this one. I'm going to wait an hour and then maybe put it in the freezer for a few minutes
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-WolF:
That's a... unorthodox approach, but reading around it just might work.

I can only recommend you to put it in a sealed container and having a rice bag at hand afterwards, just in case.

Now if you can get it to fastboot mode, try to restore a backup (if you did one) or flash a ROM, im assuming that if you can connect a cable and send commands to fastboot it is charging the phone. BTW at this point if you can send commands and are tired trying to fix it, you can execute

fastboot oem lock

and you can claim the warranty, that behaviour is not normal, maybe something in the hardware side broke but until we test it more we can't be sure.

Now while we wait in for the phone to become a popsicle, can you detail how you unlocked it?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zehmistah:
Ok, so I bought the phone and got it carrier unlocked, then yesterday I decided to flash a new rom to get the languages so I went to https://motorola-global-portal.cust...e/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a/action/auth. Unlocked the bootloader and when the phone was about to restart from cmd it said "FAILED" but rebooted anyways. It went into fastboot again and ti said it was Unlocked, when I selected Normal Reboot, it started up with the bootloader logo and continued on normally. It was then that it displayed the android startup page (Where you select language, sign into google, connect to wifi etc.) like I haven't used the phone before. Shortly after a popup came and said " Android is updating # of apps out of 137", once that was over every single process on the phone crashed.

Now I'm where I am now.

One more thing, I booted it into recovery before I unlocked the bootloader, accidently. Do you think it maybe could've wiped the original OS on the device?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-WolF:
As far as i know, you can't wipe the system with a stock recovery and with a "blank" OS your phone still connects to PC.

i forgotted this existed, at this point you can't lose anything in trying it. i dont recomend the bootloader bricker part for your case.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zehmistah:
The phone isnt't being detected when I plug it in.

I've read that leaving the phone 24 hours untouched could also help the battery. I'm going to try that\

EDIT: GOT IT TO TURN ON!!!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zehmistah:
Ok, so I got it working. The thread you told me first helped!! It works fine now with the Brazilian software. Thank you very much, you're a life saver.

Now... I've got another moto G to do the same to

Flip the dots. Become addicted.

Touch a dot to flip it between its colored and grey states. When all the dots are colored, you win. Sound easy? Here's the catch - when you flip one dot, dots that are directly connected to it will also flip. Put your mind to the test and keep playing to unlock progressively more difficult puzzles.

Download "IAGO - Flip the Dots" from the Play Store (alternatively, download the attached APK)

Well I just got mine today... Its FA44EWM... and its a fireball just like my M7. GSAM was reporting 109F when it was setting up initially. Couldn't even hold the thing.

Reviews said that it doesn't get hot at all so I don't know what's up with it. I'll use it for a few days and report back. Anyone else having temperature issues? I'm afraid its going to fry the camera like the M7 :\

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtherealRemnant:
I guess I'll just have to watch it then. I knew it was too good to be true asking for a Qualcomm SoC that doesn't have heat issues... At least its not the Sensation I guess.

I just ran a stability test with Antutu... Its actually not that bad although if it was on the charger, it would be problematic. Topped out at 108F/42C, started at 86F/30C

Other than that, everything is perfect on this phone. Not a single build quality imperfection, great LCD, surprisingly nice camera, and better signal than the M7 had. I don't regret it at all, the heat is just disappointing. My UAG Maverick will be here on Wednesday along with my 32GB microSDHC UHS-I card I got from Amazon for 25 bucks.

Mines has no heat issues. Only heats up during intense gaming, benchmarking, and for some reason it heats up when the battery dips below 20% but only to a warm touch except for gaming it heats up tremendously. Even with my screen brightness all the way up it doesn't heat up ridiculously. Overall it's fantastic.. give it a few days or send it back for a replacement.

Same here, I haven't had any heating issues, phone is always cool to the touch.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtherealRemnant:
How odd... it appears to be settling in or something. I just did a run with Brave Frontier (a game which is a great way to overheat your phone) with it plugged into the charger and its at 102F. The One would be at 113F by now and no longer charging as a result. I think I'll watch it for a bit. I seem to remember that my M7 actually hit 119 when I first got it and then settled down to a normal max of 110 with it rarely hitting 113 on the charger.

If Brave Frontier didn't overheat it, nothing will. Brave Frontier actually has a dedicated question in their FAQ for LG G2s overheating and its overheated my Nexus 7 before and crashed more than once as a result so this is actually kind of impressive. I'll report back as I use the device.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l7777:
I've seen 11x degrees while charging, streaming google play music, using the GPS, and running ingress all with the phone mounted on a sunny dashboard. My device is my car infotainment system so it gets used heavily in the car. It doesn't always get that warm but definitely warm to the touch. Eliminate a few of those things and it will cool down but I would still call it warm when playing a game. Unless someone tells you exactly what they're doing with the device you should take temperature reports with a grain of salt. There are a lot of variables and unless you make them the same you can't compare two different usage patterns. I'm guessing it would stay cooler if you kept the CPU and GPU underclocked but if you run them at their specified clock speeds the device will heat up. Simply checking e-mail or web browsing will keep my device cool to the touch as well.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guilherme1:
Hello and good evening everyone.

I'm a noob at android stuff, so I decided to ask you guys for help before anything dumb.

I have an Samsung GT-I9192. I rooted it about a week ago using Kingo (v.1.2.2) and it went ok (and voided Knox).

But today, after I turned it, an OS update dialog showed up. I went to use Titanium Backup and it said it didn't have root privileges. I checked and the Super User app disappeared.

I searched here at the forum and someone suggested downloading a new super user app. Did that and root access was not allowed. I've used the root checker and it confirmed that the device was unrooted.

I've tried rooting the device again via Kingo. It flashes the device and shows a message saying that the rooting was successful. However, when I try to use super user access it still is denied.

So what could fix the issue?

I was already thinking at installing ClockWork Mod to do nandroid backups, so if it is possible to do the two things at one time it would be very helpful.

I'm afraid of hard bricking it by flashing something wrong. So, these are the information I found:

Android Version: 4.2.2

Firmware: I9192UBUBMK4

Kernel: 3.4.0-2125686 / se.infra@R0303-1 3#1

(Compilation/Build?): JDQ39.I9192UBUBMK4

SELinux: Enforcing.

This is a Brazil/South America phone model.

Also, I'm thinking at installing Clock Work Mod to do nandroid backups and avoid soft bricks. Is this the safer way?

Thanks in advance, people!
