Yeah, I've seen most of the reports and wanted to try it myself to see what's going wrong and was surprised when it all went well with no issues.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] tdunham:
I'm fine with it too. It's great being able to do restores again.

The TWRP v2.7.x.x versions weren't working any longer on our latest 4.2.2 build. Data corrupted on restoring backups so we could use it for anything but restores.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] thuglifesk:
Hopefully this issue gets fixed for those unfortunate ones. Until then gotta stick with 2.7.0.1.

I suppose it is possible. I have a 32GB Sandisk and I don't have any issues with 2.8.1.

---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

Is anyone with 32GB or smaller SD having this issue? Maybe as you say, it is exfat issue. I think possibly it could be a problem with TWRP when they added MTP support. (which doesn't seem to work for us so far anyway since there does not appear to be a Microsoft Windows driver that supports it yet)
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andee39:
I have 32gb sd (pretty sure it is sandisk but not positive) and have this issue. I wasn't experiencing the issue some folks were having with kt twrp but decided to err on side of caution and went back to philz for now.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] tdunham:
Well so much for that theory. :rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure I formatted mine right on the phone when I was having issues and formatted internal storage through Philz since I didn't see any way to format internal storage completely from the storage menu.

Let us hope if there is enough outcry, we will see another update to TWRP soon.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] txr33:
I can back up and restore just fine to my external sd with latest twrp 2.8.0.1 I have a 64gb sd formatted in fat32. Are those with the issue formatted in exfat?

No. I have a 64gb SD card formatted fat32 and my backups were deleted by 2.8.0.1. Have reverted back to 2.7.1.0.

TWRP 2.8.0.1 missing backups on large sds: possible cause and workarounds?

Hi!

I also had a backup disappear on me (Samsung 64 GB which I didn't format, on G900F) and I wonder if the cause could be that the sd is not unmounted (properly) before the reboot?

Have you hit "reboot system" immediately after completing the backup? I think I might have.

I just tried the following and it helped (at least for one backup):

- After backing up DO NOT REBOOT, at least not immediately

- Instead press the "home" icon and then "mount" and unmount the micro sd

- then either reboot, or wait a few seconds, then remount the sd again and go to the file manager and check if the backup is still there

To be completely sure I just restored my fresh backup, and it's ok (not missing, not corrupt, system works fine).

Hopefully that helps, at least in tracking down the cause of the problem.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Reechings:
I have been manually copying over completed backups from my internal to my external and have had a couple of times when switching between Roms where the backup folder on my external SD disappears and is actually hidden in one of my other folders on the external SD. I used ES file explorer to find them.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceasee:
I recently upgrade from a Nexus 5 to a Note 3 (I wanted the Gear :P ) and I like using GEL as my default launcher, mainly for the swipe-left and "OK Google" features.

Ever since I started using GEL on my Note 3 (on stock/rooted OS) whenever I say "OK Google" there is a bit of lag between the search box opening and the sound to start talking. About 4 seconds of lag.

Now I'm aware that this isn't the end of the world but its rather annoying. As we know, the specs of the 2 devices are very similar performance wise so I would think there is something I'm missing or is this just something we will have to deal with.

Anyone else have this issue? Anyone know if a fix?

GEL - 1.0.9.1039417 - latest

Google Search - 3.3.11.1069658.arm - latest

!! All users who are NOT on Google+ be CAREFUL!

!! All users who are NOT on Google+ be CAREFUL!

This latest version removes the possibility to send pictures via Hangouts if you are not a Google+ member. Prior to this version this was always possible via using the "share" button in e.g. the Gallery app and then selecting to share to Hangouts. Google completely blocked this possibility now unless you join Google+. This means this is now a text-only app for everyone who does not want to join Google+.

Unfortunately I realized this too late; will most likely revert to an older version; which is a pity since a lot of aspects in this new version have improved.

If anyone can create an Xposed module which enables non-Google+ users to post pictures within Hangouts again, you would be my hero.

Google is not doing themselves a favor with this.

boot in recovery and use adb push or adb sideload and flash arhd again.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
if you already flashed cwm and viperone you should know these thing right?

you flash a recovery in bootloader mode using fastboot

fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

then boot in recovery and push your rom if its not already on your sdcard

adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/

and select ''install'' and flash your rom.

[General Topics] levenum:
Actually I might be able to save you some googling:

Just go to www.microsoft.com/downloads and search there.

Unfortunately if I remember correctly, you cannot install remote tools without the studio it self (maybe I am wrong).

Also if you are already working with some IDE for windows mobile like eVC check out 'Remote process viewer' in the tools menu.

Also look for a user called itsme on this form. He created a remote task manager (don't remember if it's just to show tasks or kill them as well).

Check the WiKi for itsmeutils or something like that.
[General Topics] SIMbian:
Thanks "levenum" I have taken a note of what you have said and hope I can return the same help to you sometime.

It could be when I've done the research and got the tools that I may have to develop an app. Perhaps I can post here (like I have seen others do) and see if you would be willing to beta test a work in progress.

When complete would be happy to share the final work with the forum.

Thanks again

Hey guys,

Im new to here, and new to LG G2, but already did a lot of readings inside this forum and on google about rooting and so on, aswell as about my problem. Now here is my problem, i am using international D802 version, updated to official 4.4.2, then rooted and did not change any kernels roms or anything, installed all the apps and evrything worked just fine, but then after like 5 days or so, suddenly my mobile data dissapeared and i just cannot use it, even though everything else is working (wifi, calls, sms..). And the same day my phone did itself a factory reset, but still nothing changed with mobile data. When i turn on mobile data the icon turns blue, but there is no icon on status bar. Tried inserting APN information manualy, did not help, now i have flashed cloudystock 2.0 and SimpleKernel v4, and still nothing changed. Maybe anyone knows how to fix this?

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] utnick:
I figured I would share this because it saved me (or will save) some money. I was planning on switching to a Framily plan to lower the bill significantly and was told about how phone upgrading is different on that plan. You pay full price, put down 15% and the rest is split between 24 payments on your bill. So on a $650 phone with $200 down the payment is about $19 a month for 24 months. However, if you purchase the phone with your existing contract upgrade and then switch to Frankly you only pay a $15 a month fee for the upgrade. The best part is that if you are paying for unlimited data you only pay that $15 for one year. Unfortunately, if you don't pay for unlimited data then you're paying $15 for two years. For many though it's still the better deal. Paying $4 less a month for two years adds up. Or only paying the fee for one year saves even more.

Also, I was told using a discount for belonging to a credit union gets activation fees waived automagically so I switched my discount to the credit union since my original discount didn't provide me the waiving of activation fees.

So after getting the phone on Amazon for $150 I ended up (or will) saving a chunk of change switching to a Framily plan.

I didn't proofread this. Posting from my phone.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] stovo06:
I put 100 down and my payment is only 20. Edit: doesn't add up to 649 though.
