[M.O.J.O. Android Development] zektor:
Just for the heck of it I tried the Paragon NTFS/HFS download in the Play Store today to see if NTFS read/write would work. The app needs root, and of course we thankfully have that. I had a Seagate USB 3.0 drive formatted NTFS and connected it. Since Android auto mounts on the Mojo, it auto mounted as NTFS read only. I had to unmount it, and then re-mount it with the Paragon app and choose an alternate mount point (just created a folder called "NTFS" and mounted it) and I can confirm that I can read and write to the drive. Moving files, deleting files, and copying files all worked just fine. Just a heads up. I am sure there will be a better, more translucent way of doing this down the road, but for now there does exist the possibility. I wonder if anyone knows how to stop Android from auto mounting drives when plugged in?
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] AndroidSupaFan:
I confirm that your method works, thanks!

Although I could have lived without the writing option enabled, it sure is nice being able to delete files I don't need on the fly.
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] phantomette:
I found that stock rom sucks in regards RW for external drives and doesnt allow it in exfat or NTFS the solution for me and others was installing CM12 rom instead of stock, now my drive has normal RW funtion without having to use an app to mount it

not I can use my 5TB drive :)

Anyone seen this to root our phones? Philz advanced touch recovery for sm g900a. I saw it on techbeasts website.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] byte9:
I just read that, I want to believe it but I think it's just a fake article to generate traffic. :(

Love, from GS5 locked bootloader hell.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DeadSurf:
Yeah I didn't see any other comments about it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] byte9:
Also I'm via Tapatalk but all the links in the article seem to be bs. Confirm?

Love, from GS5 locked bootloader hell.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Alarand:
from the techbeast website. Doubtful.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] mcnaught82:
So if I even try to flash this recovery with odin, I'll most likely brick my device
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] slimc84:
It won't brick it...The recovery just won't flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] mcnaught82:
Ok. Maybe I will give it a shot when I get off work. I'll report back if it works or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] slimc84:
It will not work. ODIN will not flash anything with a locked bootloader.

RECOVERY

. Waste of a thread, research before posting. This is a custom recovery that cannot be flashed onto our phone because of a locked bootloader and has nothing to do with root. An exploit is needed to root the Verizon and AT&T variant.. and it has not been found yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] shortydoggg:
As long as we're itching for root, there's going to plenty of wasted threads around here, and we're going to read them too regardless of whether or not we believe them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] byte9:
What's worse is it's just a link whore traffic write up. That site loses all credibility.

I realised that after I posted it. I was at work and Hella tired.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] johnkirchner:
So I go and search the tech beast site to find a story about it so I can post a comment about the bootloader being locked. I noticed their comments are heavily moderated and need approved first, we will see if it gets approved or not. If not, here is a screenshot of my comment and a link to the page I was reading about.

Update:

As I was getting ready to post this reply...I refreshed their website and apparently my comment did not get approved :laugh:

Update 2:

They have removed this story from their site!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] scott14719:
The site that hosts /created that story should be black-listed forever. There is no excuse for it. Like you said, they have sort of a disclaimer half way down the page...

******At&t’s Galaxy S5′s bootloader isn’t unlocked yet. You will be only able to flash this recovery if you get it unlocked, till then the following method will not work.******

...but why even have the story if not for fraud? The Author of that story needs to explain what they think the meaning of "Journalistic Integrity" is. By the way, he also has an article claiming the same thing for Verizon's S5.

That entire site needs taken down.

Here is the Author's G+ page...let him know what you think about his tactics.

https://plus.google.com/+UsamaMujtaba/posts

Here is his Twitter account

In case anyone is thinking this guy should be cut some slack, I will remind you he is the same Aothor that wrote this BS story...

"How To Unroot & Flash Stock Firmware On Samsung Galaxy S5 [All Variants]"

http://techbeasts.com/2014/05/10/ho...k-firmware-on-samsung-galaxy-s5-all-variants/

The title says it all. The article does mention (halfway through) that it is only for the models listed below (in the article), but why say "ALL VARIANTS" to begin with? This guys tactics are deplorable.

Here is "Techbeasts" contact us page:

http://techbeasts.com/contact-us-4/

Feel free to contact them and let them know what you think about these tactics, I did.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] byte9:
We both know people that use these tactics don't comply with any sort of integrity. Weekly World News and The Enquirer both get this sort of feedback as well. He's using these tactics for a reason. "Heavily moderated" is an understatement, that whore article has 0 comments. If he allowed any comments he'd have at least 30+ from brethren here at XDA.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] scott14719:
Update**

Mr. Usama, M. replied to my concerns with the following Email:

"You need to open your eyes and read the note in these posts carefully. It is clearly mentioned that this can't be done until there is a method to unlock bootloader."

...and my reply back was...

"So you feel it is OK to make a tutorial about something that can not be done? My eyes are open...you need to stop deceiving people for the sake of Internet traffic."

So, he admits to knowing it can't be done, yet still knowingly posts an article with the title SPECIFICALLY for the AT&T S5 on how to do what can't be done?

The guy is a parasite.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Miguelconcha:
I soft bricked my s5 trying flashing a tmo s5 custom recovery and a tmo s5 custom rom , I wanted to see if the bootloader was really locked, it is. And I was able to flash regular stock att firmware using Odin. So when I tried to boot the recovery, it opened the custom recovery I had flashed on there before, then it went to the screen where it says, att doesn't recognize this as blah blah blah... Now I can't boot up my recovery without that happening. I can boot the phone up but not the recovery.???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] djmouse:
Try doin a factory reset now, but what custom recovery did you flash and how threw the stock recovery or threw odin
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Miguelconcha:
I put my phone in download mode Odin picked it up and I flashed it thru there, it was twrp and a random tmo rom.

And I flashed stock the same way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] johnkirchner:
Did it trip the Knox counter? Just curious.

Sent from my AT&T Samsung Galaxy S5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Miguelconcha:
It did but when I flashed back to stock it went back to 0x0 the recovery went back to after flashing it again , I also wondered if loki patch worked and I tried pushing it to my phone thru command prompt, Umm it doesn't do anything, I tried flashing something again thru Odin and that second time it didn't even pick up my phone on download mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Fluid_head:
Hello everyone. I'm now using an AT&T S5 as of 2 days ago and came across this thread in my searches. I just wanted to know if there is now a version of Philz for our phone and if so where? I haven't been able to find it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] UnhoIy:
No. Use Safestrap recovery. Locked bootloader, so only (themed/modded) TouchWiz ROMs.

MUGEN, a staple in the battery case market, just released their Nexus 5 3000 mAh battery case. I'm pretty excited to see how this case fares up against the ZeroLemon and LimeFuel cases. Does anybody have the case or has seen a review for it. Is anybody else really excited about the news?!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TheAtheistOtaku:
would love to buy but for 90$ its a bit too expensive for my tastes.

Can someone explain why they are so expensive? is it build quality or is it just for the brand like apple
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jkcarp94:
Does anyone have this case? I contacted Mugen and they claim that the case is only 1cm thick. I find that really hard to believe. The Nexus 5 by itself is 0.7cm. I can't believe that the case only adds 0.3cm to the thickness. The i-Blason case is regarded as very thin and it is still 1.6cm thick and the Mugen is a bigger battery than the i-Blason. Something doesn't seem right.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I think they meant that the case adds an additional 1cm thickness. So it would be 1.7cm thick with both the case and phone combined.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jkcarp94:
That may very well end up being the reality but their email was very specific and said the dimensions of the case are as follows.

Something definitely could be lost in translation of languages too. I have sent them a follow up email specifically on that 1 centimeter measurement so we will see what they have to say.

I'd love to find out that the one centimeter depth is accurate and that might honestly explain the reason why it is twice as much cost as the other options. They might have a much more refined design that allows them to do something like a custom shaped battery or something else to keep the size down.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Well, from this picture alone, you can pretty much see it's not .3cm thick. And the site says "Dimensions: W(70.96 mm) x D(20.2 mm) x H(151 mm)".
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jkcarp94:
That is a photo of the CC-Nexus5-P, not the CC-Nexus5. Two different products.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
The CC-Nexus5 looks just as thick. It's still not .3cm either way.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragynbane222:
I've grown bored of CM, Slim, and Paranoid Android, so I'm looking for an interesting rom, my main stipulation is the source has to be out there so I can go and look around in it (and likely build it since I'm weird like that), MIUI looks interesting, but I'm still looking to see if the source is out there.

So I'm looking for input, does anyone have any suggestions of a ROM I can take, build and customize my own version of and use as my main rom?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLastSidekick:
I don't believe MIUI releases source code.

And essentially any AOSP ROM that has a repo can easily be built. I used AICP to build from its repo and it worked fine. Customizing has different meanings to everyone.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Franzferdinan51:
I though miui was closed source not positive on that but either way its awesome ROM if you find anything good please share I was looking for something like MokeOS (sp?)

Hello, I have a few questions in regards to Magazine MX.

1. After I set up the Gmail account, my emails show up on Magazine M X. I prefer to keep the original photo. Is there a way to get it back?

2. How Magazine M X works anyway? For example, if I want my device to display things from a specific website (e.g. makezine.com), what should I do? Should I contact the web master and ask him to make a Magazine M X version? What is the terminology to use when making this request?

3. Basically, can anybody make information from his or her website available under Magazine M X?

[Acer Iconia A500] TKTAB911:
I've attempted to follow a dozen different "Noob/beginner" and "all-you-need-to-know" sort of guides here and still feel stumped. My first tablet and by far the most difficult to actually tinker with - to date for me.

I have an ATT Acer A501 Tablet.

From what I understand; Android Version: 3.2 = HC, correct?

However; Build Number: Acer_A501_4.402.03_PA_ATT

From the "unofficial official OTA updates" thread somewhere in here, It doesn't even get CLOSE to a "4.402.03". I believe the highest was "4.1XX.XX", which from my basic understanding means.. I have no idea.

Wouldn't the higher build number represent a newer OTA/Newer build? If that were so, Why is my version at 3.2?

I don't need an elaborate speech on how I don't search. I don't need a flame fight or a "google it" response.

I need to know where to start with getting this thing fully unlocked.
