[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prattleon:
I've researched this extensively and still not finding the solution I need. I recently flashed a ROM to my GNEX (unlocked from Google Play store). I'm not sure at what point it happened, but my /factory/ folder seems to have been emptied. So now I'm getting a generic IMEI that is blocked y my carrier T-Mobile. I'm getting absolutely no service.

Strangely I had no backup other than a backup of all my apps and data from Titanium backup, but I doubt there is anything useful in there. I have since reset my phone several times, removed the battery for 20 minutes, flashed the stock version of android that came with the phone...

my radio folder looks like this:

/data/radio/

nv_data.bin

nv_data.bin.md5

log folder

The log folder contains nv.log which contains the following:

Sat May 24 21:01:16 2014: __refresh_md5_file: Can't open /factory/nv_data.bin.md5. Read-only file system.

Sat May 24 21:01:16 2014: MD5 is turned on.

Sat May 24 21:01:16 2014: /data/radio/nv_data.bin does not exist.

Sat May 24 21:01:17 2014: default NV restored.

Sat May 24 21:31:56 2014: MD5 is turned on.

Sat May 24 21:33:07 2014: __refresh_md5_file: Can't open /factory/nv_data.bin.md5. Read-only file system.

Sat May 24 21:33:07 2014: MD5 is turned on.

Sun May 25 00:51:15 2014: __refresh_md5_file: Can't open /factory/nv_data.bin.md5. Read-only file system.

Sun May 25 00:51:15 2014: MD5 is turned on.

my /factory/ folder was empty, but I copied the two files from my radio folder in the factory folder to see if that would help. I think that changed the messages in the log file but did not fix the problem. I know I need to repair my IMEI, but I'm not sure how. I would GREATLY appreciate any help. Thanks!

[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _b_d_:
Sorry, but what you're asking for doesn't exist. The Ouya stuff is way too tightly integrated into the stock ROM, and I doubt anyone is ever going to put forth the effort to rip it all out (if it's even possible at all). You're better off just waiting to see if the whole Ouya experience stuff will mean an installable Android app whenever it's released.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RapperDMX:
I have to agree with this too, the best bet would be to wait for an ouya provided "ouya experience" apk, and slip that in alongside Cyanogenmod.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spencertimm:
Hi all,

I recently picked up an HTC One M7 for AT&T and I wanted to put a custom ROM on it. So I unlocked the boot loader and installed SlimKat. Then I rooted the device and then set S-OFF. After I set S-OFF I can only boot into the boot loader. The recovery takes me back to the boot loader menu (I have tried flashing a custom recovery multiple times) and there is the error "active cmdline overflow" on the bootloader. What can I do?

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

[Android Apps and Games] wfire:
There have been lots of posts and articles and questions about the dreaded SD Card access changes in KitKat, and how the SD card can no longer be freely written.

And there is an excellent thread here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2684188 about a great app that can fix it.

However, whether you fix your permissions manually, or using this app, there is still a very subtle difference.

I've been using rsync for Android for several years. I have a central Linux server at my house, on which I keep all my files, and I periodically rsync FROM my server, TO my Android Device (in this case, a Galaxy Note 3 SM-900 4G running 4.4.2) to a structure on the external SD card. That way I can keep a local copy of my files with me at all times. I pretty much fill a 64GB SD card this way.

Under 4.3 and earlier, I used /storage/extSdCard (or /mnt/extSdCard ) as my mount point to access my external SD card, and everything worked fine.

However, under KitKat, rsync was having a very strange issue. Attempts to rsync a file would result in:

rsync - failed to set time on file

for any file that it tried to transfer. It seemed like it was transferring the file, but was unable to change the timestamp on the file.

The solution turns out to be visible if you run Android Terminal Emulator and look at the output of the mount command. Tracing through that, I discovered that there is also a less-obvious alternate mount point, which is:

/mnt/media_rw/extSdCard

And, indeed, using that as an rsync target solves the timestamp problem.

Felt this should be posted somewhere, hope this is the right place.

Thanks.

I went back into safestrap and began to restore back to my nandroid of NC4 into the stock slot. The battery was not low but for some reason during the restore the phone decided to shut off. Now when I turn on my phone, all I get is the Note 3 boot screen and custom lock forever. I can get into download and Knox is not tripped (not that it matters). What should I ODIN back to?

I know how to do it but my concern is that I want to save my internal memory (/data/media) from being wiped. Is their any way to pull it from download mode? Or is there a tar file that will leave it alone?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] girishadat:
Sorry for the long post. There are many for me to tell you.

Some light into the background: I had dropped my Samsung Galaxy S2 in water accidentally. After draining & drying it started to work, but with below problems.

1. Quick battery drain in 6-7 hours with my minimal usage which originally gave me a day approx before this incident. If I drain the battery till the phone die, the phone cannot recharge it back. I need to use my wife's phone to recharge the battery. But if the phone is on (say @ 5% battery remaining), I can charge the battery.

2. Overheating even when it's idle around the rear camera. (There are no process with more than 5% CPU utilisation. Verified with top command in Terminal.) (After the incident I gave it for servicing but nothing helped so far. Final words I got from them was: replace mother board which is short now. I could not follow them: money needed = 50% of phone's cost and how a phone which boots up and do anything be thrown off?). I tried to solve the puzzle myself. As step one switched to cyanogenmod 10.1.3 with advanced cwm touch recovery by philz.

3. The power button works without any problem to switch my S2 on. But once booted it does not work at all - neither for short press lock/unlock nor for long press for power menu. In recovery as well the power button won't work; that's why I went for touch cwm.

I've followed a post on GSMhosting hardware forums where I could find some service guys did some trick for overheating. They recommended to remove a capacitor and an IC from USB On-the-go module. There are at least 20 people who had solved their S2 problem this way. But the trick didn't work for me.

Can someone answer some of my doubts.

1) Is the power button a single action externally (push) but double action internally (one to power on and other to function when the device is on - either on OS or recovery) type? I could see three leads for the power button going onto the PCB.

2) Any clue into the inability of charging the battery when the phone is off?

Thanks in advance for any help. ?

I'm not new to rooting and flashing, except with the G2, VS980. That said, I rooted using an app called "AutoRec" from the Play Store. I then flashed TWRP 2.7. However, when attempting to flash the stable version of Cyanogenmod (10.2), I run into an "LG Security Error" and the phone won't boot past the LG boot screen.

Do I need to revert back to an older firmware to flash ROM's? Is there an LG VS980 flashing tutorial anywhere? I used the TOT method to get the G2 back to stock, and I'm currently back on 24A, but reverting won't be a problem as the stock firmware is garbage.

I know, this is a lot for one post, but I need the information. There are plenty of ROM's to choose from, but I don't even know where to start. I know it's difficult picking one, so which one are you using now and would you recommend it?

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] dannyoneill:
Easy, just download Total commander from http://www.ghisler.com/

Open it up and at the top type \Extended_Rom

This will show the contents of your extended rom, you will see loads of things but the ones you want are the cabs relating to your provider. Or all providers actually, Delete allt the cabs that dont start with Default_ these are what brand your device when you hard reset.

Now just hard reset, it will isntall all the normal stuff but will leave you with a brand free jamin.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] t0ne:
Hi dannyoneill,

thanks for the program, only problem i have is how do i add the jamin to it so that i can see it and do what u r saying ?

thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] levenum:
You need to download and install Windows CE FS plug-in. You will then see a mobile device entry in the file window. I recommend dragging it to the toolbar so you will always have a button for convenient access (total commander can open files directly form the device).

Also I don't remember it now, but if you search this forum there is a registry tweak that will unhide your extended ROM so you can use it for extra storage space (and manipulate files in it using regular explorer both on device and PC). You can use the free PHM Registry editor to apply the tweak.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] dannyoneill:
Just follow the instructions to install total commander onto your PPC. Make sure you click the link to the mobile version and not the desktop version.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] t0ne:
thanks dannyoneill, got it working..

jsut a few other questions if u dont mind

im in the \Extended_Rom folder with the default stuff but the telstra stuff i want to get rid of has Default_Telstra_australia_SA_UN_V2.20.CAB and also Default_Australia_Telstra.CAB as the file names, will these be ok to delete still ?

thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] dannyoneill:
Yes, you can delete them.

If you really want everything here is safe to delete. What it usually contains are patches like driver updates, applications like the backgammon, antivirus and Skype.

Below is taken from another post, its a little out of date but still good to see whats what. For me. I removed all the operators apart from my own (as it doesnt brand) plus got rid of backgammon, antivirus (totally useless on a PPC) and skype as the latest version is better (especially if you apply the registry fix to get it working)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] t0ne:
dannyoneill thanks heaps,

deleting those to files worked a treat :D

thanks again

t0ne
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Val3r10:
Poll for sticking this 3d!

THANKS !!!

..._

P.S.: may I install basic stuff to the ExtROM while it's hidden ?

Or, if I need to unhide it, install, then re-hide, will such software still playable ?

I mean for example:

- Total commander itself

- Resco explorer

- Storage tools

- Sprite Backup

- and so on...

Is it a strange idea ?

Thanks again for this illuminating thread.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] dannyoneill:
You can unlock and install things no problem, not done it myself, done know if they will still be usable after its re-hidden i would think not.

The extended rom is reserved so empty or not its not going to give you more ram or rom storage at all. The best thing to do is unlock it and use it for storage. The annoying thing is if you hard reset you then have to re-unlock it.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] PeterW:
BTW, on the i-mate website's JAMin support pages, you will find specific operator settings for Optus in a downloadable CAB file, which will setup the wireless settings for your device.
