[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrtoxicgamer10:
As per your query, When you download some bigger applications/games such as Asphalt 8 - they get installed on the SD card automatically (if there's SD card inserted in your device).

and for your Second query, try this method :

Step 1 : Download Android SDK (Click HERE)

Step 2 : Install adb drivers on your System (your device should automatically install them when connected through USB)

Step 3 : Install Motorola Device Manager (Download from HERE)

Step 4 : When Downloading Android SDK is completed, Go to Platform-tools (Path : adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\platform-tools)

Step 5 : Open Command Prompt in Platform-tools folder (Right Click>Open Command Windows here)

Step 6 : Now Enter the following command to see if the device is set to default for Internal Memory or External Memory :

Type : adb devices (to see if your devices is connected)

adb shell pm get-install-location (to see if default apps/games installation is set ot Internal memory or External memory)

adb shell pm set-install-location 2 (No. 2 indicates that you are going to set default installation to External Memory)

Congratulations !! You have successfully set your Moto E default installation to SD card. Have fun !
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolsandie:
I don't think SD card really is useful for apps, because even though there is an option to "Move to SD", only small portion is moved which maybe not at all useful (Remember, Kitkat imposed some changes in SD card write, access etc) The data files are not moved like in Jellybean. As for Asphalt 8, 98% of the app lies in internal storage even though its moved to SD card. So moving, I don't think its very useful for apps.

Anyways I don't own this device, and the above points are said with respect to review videos seen in Youtube.

Hi people I have a question >> can Whatsapp be transferred to external sdcard...and if yes then do all images and videos shared on whatsapp get stored on external sd or internal sd... kindly let me know...accordingly I may decide to purchase the phone.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Small_town_boy:
I guess everything from WhatsApp stays on internal memory itself :(

when I placed the WhatsApp folder from my old phone on SD card it didn't get recognized from the app...as soon as I moved the folder to internal memory the app picked it and restored my conversations

So bottom line WhatsApp folder can't be moved to external memory, AFAIK[emoji106]

That suxks then..considering the tons of photos and videos that are shared on whatsapp these days :( no workaround available ?
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolsandie:
I guess its basically because Internal memory is recognized as "sdcard0" and SD-card as "sdcard1".

In my old Karbonn phone which runs 4.2.2 ... SDcard is recognized as "sdcard0" and Internal SD card as "sdcard1" .. So everything got installed or copied into the Microsd card this way. So if there's a way to revert those, maybe it solves, though not sure.

I got a fix...! U can install OBB directly from PC into sdcard..! ***WORKING 100%***

You need a rooted phone with FolderMount installed in it : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount

First copy the APK in phone and install it..... Don't run the game now..... Then later copy the name of the obb folder like.. : for asphalt 8 it is : com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA8HM

copy the name title of folder...

go to phone memory's Android/obb folder and create a folder of the same name...

you have now a folder in phonememory's OBB as com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA8HM

Dont copy your data yet...

Go to foldermount and click the ""+"" icon over and insert some name for the pair... Then go in source directory and just select the "android/obb/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA8HM" directory..

DO NOT MOUNT THE FOLDER YET....

Now copy the data file into the folder.... after finishing the copying... Mount the folder and run the game :D:D:good::good::good: You did it....

CAREFUL: DO NOT INSTALL GaME AFTER COPYING THE DATA coz the game installer erases the data..!

Please press thanks as this method works... If you need any assistance then I will be uploading a video shortly..!

PRESS THANKS :D

[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mayank_V:
No way without rooting

The administrative rights in KK doesnot allow users to have their apps installed over sd card directly. So for all the questions there is only one answer , you need to have root access to install apps over sd. After rooting you have many apps like folder mount,gl2sd,linktosd, xposed modules, kksd fix etc. If you want to have that rights you have to root your phone of course and there is no harm when you know what you are doing.

How can i download and install directly to my sd card?

Hi, I am Norman. I have a moto e. I have purchased a 16gb class 10 SD card. But as I go to download games, it gives me n error that, I have insufficient space and asks me to free some space. There are few apps and games which get installed as they require less space, but the thing I do not understand is, when I am downloading or installing any app, it first gets in the phone memory (which is very less), so it does not get installed as some games like fifa 14 or asphalt 8 require more space to download and install. I can move them in the SD card once installed. BVut it is not happening as there is low space in phone memory HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL DIRECTLY TO MY SD CARD?

So i have this brazillian xt1022 with official ota updated lollipop, which i tried to root (sorta long story), it boot looped after a complete discharge on the boot image. After it, i did the downgrade to 4.4.2 and no progress has been done, just the recovery has gone tottaly useless, it now is boot looping quickly on the no command screen . Now i do not have any access to recovery, neither to adb (obviously) and just have the fastboot. I tried flashing again the downgrade rom, but there's that gtp error about trying to downgrade. Tried to flash boot.img too.

Ps: the update command won't work since no roms i found have the android-info.txt.

Any idea about what to do? Or any official rom to send me? it has to be a lollipop rom to the things work?

Downloads :

XFE-I9500XXUBMH1

Recommended :

make EFS backup

instructions :

1- open odin

2- flash XFE-I9500XXUBMH1 via odin

after you finish, system will show custom, but you need just to flash another 4.2.2 firmware >> download

if you wipe cache and the phone reboots

just flash custom recovery then wipe cahce & data, elc...

then flash stock

can any one test this??? If OP find way to downgrade firmware in 9500 meybe we find way do to downgrade in 9505.

I have a guide on how to downgrade i9505, but the thread closed because I gave a link to mobile odin

And I can confirm that method works 100% for i9505, the same goes to the i9500

I didnt mod this, its just stock but it have like a special bootloader thing

And no I dont have an old bootloader

[Galaxy S 4 General] intika:
Downgrade with firmware XFE-I9500XXUBMH1 work because of one thing

IT DOES NOT HAVE SBOOT.IMG (the bootloader)

it's not a real downgrade because the bootloader is still in 4.3 or 4.4 with KNOX !
[Galaxy S 4 General] MisterFail:
Thanks !
[Galaxy S 4 General] p220fhf:
Does it apply to I9505 ? If so, how and what do i need?
[Galaxy S 4 General] androidrouen:
But if you do OTA it will erase bootloader so knox is 0 ? i am wrong ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] intika:
Just grab an stock firmware from samfirmware and remove sboot.img from it

then flash and it will downgrade.

in any stock rom you have the kernel (boot.img) and the bootloader (sboot.img)

if your phone have a knox bootloader, then you could only flash a knox bootloader (the version does not meter for the moment)

for exemple you could downgrade to stock 4.3 without any modification or removing sboot because v4.3 have a bootloader with knox this is the only way to downgrade the bootloader it's with an other knox bootloader

about erasing knox value this is impossible without sophisticated way like Jtag or replacing the motherboard
[Galaxy S 4 General] androidrouen:
I readed a thread where they did : 1) flash 4.1 on kit kat, 2) OTA to be on 4.2. so they totally deleted knox because bootloader of 4.2 does not contain knox ? so if after you upgrade to 4.3 knox should be 0 ? no ? i reade it but i didn't care about that because knox is not a problem for me ^^
[Galaxy S 4 General] intika:
knox value change only if you flash something that are not signed by samsung.

as i say if you play with stock samsung firmware knox value will not change

for the S4 knox was introduced in v4.3

can you please link the thread you talk about
[Galaxy S 4 General] androidrouen:
sorry i didn't found it, but on xda the thread exist, i readed it, coming back to an old bootloader is possible,

i founded this crap link : http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2-bootloader-sboot-downgrade-service/

But if you are interesed search about :)

1) flash via odin rom 4.1 without bootloader (your status should be official)

2) OTA to 4.2 and magic knox is totally erased

3)OTA to 4.3 kitakat ect and knox is 0
[Galaxy S 4 General] intika:
Edit : Knox value change if you downgrade to any sboot.img

Ok i know a lot of you guys bought an S5 and it either came with the camera bug, or it came out of nowhere (like mine).

Well i sort of have a solution for this.

Just download the app Snapchat, for some reason this app doesn't make the camera force close since it uses it's own.

It's not the best but in order to do this:

1.Go to the camera on there

2.Just screenshot the screen. :D

That simple!!

Until there is an OTA update or you plan on getting a replacement, this is the only solution i have figured out so far.

Hello experts.

i have a phablet " galaxy note 8" and another xperia p android

i have a problem

when i walk down the street and i get a call , i have to get the tablet out of my back bag , open the cover , and discover that it is an unwanted call.

and smart watches are ridiculously expensive.

im looking for an app that makes when i get a call on the tablet to see who is calling through the xperia phone ,just like a smartwatch , i think it is doable.

all i need is to see who is calling on the tablet through somthing that easly reachable.

and please do not refer me to any tablet talk or something that connects a tablet to a phone because it doesnt make it the other way around

i want to use the phone to make me see who is calling on my phablet " the phone here is the one that is being used as a smartwatch"
[Android Apps and Games] skeltonh:
SMSreader is an app that can announce who is calling. If you don't want that then invest in a case with a window and magnet. The phone will display the information in the window without opening it. Otherwise you'll have to find another solution. That or have your calls forwarded to the smaller of your phones

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scooby7557:
As the title states I'm unlocked & rooted, but have a few questions before I start making changes to the phone.

1. Is there any advantage to using CWM as opposed to the stock recovery? The reason I ask is that the recovery is what caused me hours of trouble upgrading to KitKat. It just would not verify that I had the correct one even after flashing stock back. Is there any real disadvantage to flashing CWM to backup & recover as needed but keeping the stock recovery in other words? Or is there a way to save & flash my stock recovery back later if needed (CWM says that it is irreversible)?

2. Does anyone know a good ad blocker & how to get it running right? I used to use ROM Tool Box & never upgraded it when Google pulled that feature but apparently they shut it down as I still have the option but it won't work.

3. Anyone have a good list of apps that can be frozen/disabled in KitKat?

4. What font do you like? Been using the original Droid font for years but kinda thinking it might be time to switch it up.

Thanks for any advice and opinions you can offer!

It is greatly appreciated!
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killrhythm09:
1. Being able to make backups is the big advantage. Stock recovery is basically useless aside from OTA upgrades.

2. AdAway is what I use. It's open source and you can find it in the F-Droid repository at f-droid.org

3. I'm still on CM so I'll let someone else answer this.

4. I never bothered changing fonts either.

I'm a long time Paranoid Android user and I'm really happy with it.

But i have one problem. I want to play 'school idol festival' (can't post links) but it doesn't work with root access. Every time i want to start the game it just says: 'Illegal access detected. Game cannot start'

I know this game is not for devices with root access (it says so in the description) but is there a way to solve this? I already tried to turn off Superuser in the settings but it didn't work. So i hope you guys can help me.

[Paranoid Android Q&A] HK-AD:
I guys just turning of the superuser app doesn't do much since root is still in tact, you've to unroot your device completly.

Also by searching on google for a bit there's no bypass (at least i found nothing).

Another thing is i think that the problem lies with the game and super su, so asking here is not quite right in my opinion.

On Shostock 4 and StraightTalk. This is pretty annoying, been going on for quite some time, even before ST.

When it does go straight to my mailbox, it refuses to identify the stored password.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
I was on Net10 for a month recently and had the same problem with the mail box. Net10 is another brand from the same company as Straight Talk. While I was on AT&T before switching to Net10, my voice mail would always connect without prompt. Then I went to Net10 for a month, and when I went back to AT&T, my voice mail still prompted me for the number. I found that there is a menu to change the settings. Apparently, this is a "so called" security feature. On AT&T I was able to disable the security feature so that my voice mail now works like it used to. I would bet that Straight Talk also has a similar configuration menu for voice mail, if you can find the instructions for it. If not, find the instructions for AT&T and maybe the prompts will be the same.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sbi1:
Yes, I know where it is (Phone, Settings). I just added the mailbox number to the dialing sequence, it's just annoying that you need to it.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
I wasn't referring to using speed dial to include the password after a pause and the # symbol, but doing it that way is actually more secure. Here are the instructions for turning the password on or off on AT&T:

By default, the password requirement is on when you set up your voicemail. For your security, we don't recommend turning the password requirement off.

Here's how to turn the voicemail password feature on or off:

1.Press and hold 1 or Voicemail key to call into the voicemail system from your wireless device.

2.If you have new messages, press the * key to skip to the Main Menu, otherwise go to Step 3.

3.Press 4 for Personal Options.

4.Press 2 for Administrative Options.

5.Press 1 for Password Options.

6.Press 2 to Turn Password On or Off, and then follow the prompts.

It seems that some people can access their ST voice mail without a password, but the official word is that the 'security feature" can not be turned off. I no longer have any way to test it.
