[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] youphone:
yeah, I meant 4.4.2

If my Galaxy Note 2 is currently rooted, it will not lose root after 4.4.2 is installed. Is this correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] youphone:
Is that even possible on a Verizon Galaxy Note 2 that came from Samsung with 4.3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mushypizza:
Once you update using the OTA 4.4, you WILL LOSE root.

If your phone came with 4.3, then it is not possible to flash another rom since the bootloader is locked. Root is possible though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lilila:
Actually it is still possible to flash custom roms with locked bootloader: safestrap.

If some one have the way how to root sony Z2 (17.1.1 a.0.402) this model++++!!!!! Not the Old version (17.1.a.0.402) . Pls help!!. I cannot find a way to root this. thank you for help :)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beloero:
Hi,

Just unlock your bootloader and flash valid boot.img (for 17.1.1 a.0.402) with a custom recovery and install the update-supersu.zip on it.

This will work.

Is it just a hardware limitation or can it be enabled on our phones by some tool or something? (My phone is rooted, btw)

It is a kernel feature, a custom kernel may bring OTG support to our device!

Due to Google's Android kitkat restrictions desire 816 users can't modify sd card data . There are some ways like sd fix , modifying platform.xml files etc but all these requires rooting of ur phone , which obviously void ur warranty .

This topic is discussing ways to edit sd card data without rooting so that users who are not opting for root also ACCESS SD CARD DATA .

FIRST ::

1. For FOLDERS Only :-- use the FILE MANAGER which is in Polaris office app . It can only DELETE, COPY ,RENAME the docs file or any FOLDER (Not All Files).

2. Use " SOLID EXPLORER " App from Google play store . It can copy any file from ur internal memory to sd card (external memory). . Though renaming and deleting is not available now ..

Rooting doesn't even help (using X-Plore)

Bro My sd card is broken last night . I have ordered a new 64gb one . I can again cnfrm it when I got it .

After doing a fresh install of explorer have u tweaked any of its SETTING ??. . Check the explorer version and u can also read in its change log that it can modify sd card data .

Ok it will provide u a screenshot of copying success tomorrow with another card .
[Desire 816 General] moosha:
No I haven't changed anything in setting ....as soon as I installed it I tried moving files but. cudnt

[Desire 816 General] hoyler30589:
The only way ive found is if you go into the htc more storage wizard from settings it will move mp3 jpeg and vids to sd for you.

Ive tried copying files with es file explorer to internal then moved them with storage wizard it doesnt see the files but if i use astro to move the files then htc wizard sees it!

So a semi working soloution hope it helps someone :)

I find out using the polaris file manager managed to write data on my external card but the problem some games I've installed required a big space it would be be nice if the phone reads the external card as sdcard.
[Desire 816 General] qeezar:
solution without rooting htc 816

Hello,

This method can be used to any kit kat device. (it doesn't void warranty)

use solid explorer beta file manager for this method(it can edit root folder without rooting device) use particular this version

1. navigate to /system/etc/permissions

2. Edit platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.

3. Add an additional group definition for this permission: <group gid=”media_rw” />

4. Save the changes to the file.

5. Restart the phone.

View attachment 2908690​

if any problem please contact qeezarbetgeri16@gmail.com
[Desire 816 General] bonczas:
I found beta on the internet and after installation it says that beta time has passed and i cant use it : |
[Desire 816 General] qeezar:
use it by clicking on its background

method 2.

you can also use ES explorer from google play store for and

1. first select device storage from ES file explorer.

2. navigate to /system/etc/permissions

and follow same procedure from my above answer
[Desire 816 General] j_svas:
With out root access, we will not be able to save the file back ?. Please help
[Desire 816 General] qeezar:
use solid explorer beta 1.2.2

Use particular solid explorer beta 1.2.2 version(you can get it on something torrapk.com)

If you get the expired version when it displays that this version is expired use it by clicking on its background and follow the procedure.
[Desire 816 General] j_svas:
Tried with both solid explorer beta 1.2.2 and es explorer also! Gives no root error to save file!

Guess you have root access by default! Any one had good luck on this?
[Desire 816 General] bonczas:
Sadly, it's impossible without root. I suppose that qeezar's phone was pre-rooted or something because nobody else confirmed that he managed to successfully rewrite build.prop without root. Let's just hope that in Android L Google's privacy policy will change and we will be able to use our SD cards like before.

So, for users who didn't root till now,

1.Stock File Browser (Polaris ofice app - file browser) -> to work with Folders

2.Settings -> Storage -> Make free space for deletion of files

Is there any workaround to copy/move files?

[Desire 816 General] mdaamir1989:
Anybody found a work around for the problem without rooting the device ?
[Desire 816 General] seekfind:
you can use the official HTC file manager too. it is taken from One M8 which is compatible with 816 and works fine. just install the apk.

(I've got it from somewhere on XDA and I can't remember where, so the credit goes to its respective OP)
[Desire 816 General] Sivasr:
Also, Fila Manager app from Cheetah mobiles (earlier it was from Rhytham Softwares) can able to delete the all files from external sd card. Meanwhile Inbuilt Polaris app can do delete the folders..only folder start with "." cannot be deleted as of now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JimmySiegel:
I inherited a SCH-I535 that had already taken the NC1 ota. I finally found a safe way to root, although an unlocked bootloader would be ideal, beggers cant be choosers. Any way all went well, I flashed ML1 with odin then safe root and flash NC1 again. Root access!! For some reason I decided to use EZ-Unlock, big mistake instant hard brick! I successfully revived with the debrick.bin SD Card boot. I am back but no wifi, I am not sure if the root access or debrick disabled my wifi. I have had no success finding info on any other thread specific to this situation. Forgive me I missed a thread stating a fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JimmySiegel:
Just thought I would update. I flashed the complete stock ML1 rom via Odin then re-rooted again with safe root. Everything is working great I have wifi again and full root access.

This might be the stupidest quetsion ever but, I'm totally helpless.

I need to access the recovery, I flashed a rom which stucks at the boot screen, I need to flash another yet I cannot shut this thing of. I keep pressing the power button for 10secs, 3buttons starts to flash and screen goes dark. When I let it go, it restarts.

How can I power of this device without accessing the OS?

Hold it until the buttons stop flashing, about 20 seconds.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 10Saleem01:
Hello

I have a nook color and I installed CyanogenMod 10.1, it worked for a couple of days and then it wouldn't boot up. I recently redid all of my steps and i was able to do all of them up to the Cyanoboot Screen, this is where I would have to go into the "Internal eMMc Recovery". But all it does when I click on it is says "Loading Recovery from EMMC" it just stays on the same screen until I reboot it. Can anyone help?

I took a picture of what is happening below.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
There is nothing in your picture. I suggest you make a bootable CWM SD and try that.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meocao10:
I have the same problem. I'm running Mirage CyanogenMod 7.2 (custom rom), the July 2013 build.

On that night, I was on 27% of battery, then my Nook Color suddenly turned off without showing message about low battery.

Then I plugged my Nook into the power, it booted, showed Cyanoboot screen, then turned off into black screen (there wasn't any light in the background) after 10 seconds. I left my Nook there.

After 3 hours thinking that it was charged, I checked my Nook. Still black screen. I tried to press the 'n' button and hold the power, but it didn't respond. Then I took it out of the power, and plugged again. It booted, showed Cyanoboot screen, and then turned off into black screen after 10 seconds. I know the problem is the low battery. If I was in the stock rom, it would show message "Battery to low to power on" and would turn into black screen (with light in the background) to be charged, but in this CyanogenMod rom, it tries to boot even when the battery is low, causing infinite boot loop.

My suggestion is running dual boot: original emmc, and CM rom on SD card.

P/s: Luckily my Nook Color booted ok after I plugged it into my laptop via USB cable, but it turned off very fast, so when it shows up the launcher, I must quickly press the power to make it go to sleep. This makes my Nook being charged.

Very late response but this method also doesn't work. Any other suggestions?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
What do you mean that method does not work? You mean you can't make the bootable SD or the SD does not boot?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 10Saleem01:
I tried the bootable SD, I might be doing it wrong but it didn't work when I tried.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
You still did not answer the question. "Didn't work" is not a good enough answer. You mean it would not boot or that when you booted to it, it did not do what you wanted?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 10Saleem01:
It wouldn't boot.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
So then did you try the things in A9 of that thread, like using a different card or card reader, etc?

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Are you selecting that option or is it trying to going there automatically? It should be trying to boot to SD card recovery.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 10Saleem01:
I selected the option myself and it just gets stuck there.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Don't select that option. That option obviously is not working. That is why I had you make the SD version to use. Select the SD card recovery option. Then you can install the new recovery zip with it. Or you can use it to re-install the CM10.1 zip.

That is a totally different issue. I can't help you there. I usually do not set up the Cyanogenmod account. Just Google.

Hello,

I have an unlocked, rooted AT7T LG Escape P870 running the latest official ROM from LG. My carrier is Consumer Celluar (and I suspect that may be the problem as far as my issue is concerned).

I've discovered that there is supposed to be a "hidden menu" that one is supposed to be able to access using an MMI code. I tried one code - 338464#*# - and for a second, I see a message saying "USSD code running". That quickly disappears, and I see "Connection problem or invalid MMI code". I'm wondering if I get this error because my carrier isn't AT&T.

Can you direct me to a link where this issue might be addressed, please?
