Stock kitkat will require root for apps to have write access to your external sd card. If you're rooted or plan on rooting this app here will simplify the fix for you: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix

This is not an lg bug, but a horrible choice on Googles part that will probably change in Android L....

That app works great or you can manually do it yourself (if you fear apps) by:

Open file:

/system/etc/permissions/platform.xml

Then add this to the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE section.=:

[Verizon LG G3] Colchiro:
I had to install FolderMount to fix my sdcard in order for TIBU to work.

My sdcard came from my Note II tho.

No need to setup FolderMount, just let it fix permissions, then you can uninstall it.
[Verizon LG G3] RED ZMAN:
Thanks for posting, I forgot all about this. I was able to restore from titanium but I did notice when I was selecting my titanium backup folder on the SD card that it said it was not a writable folder.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Yeah, no problem. Figured it would help some people out, especially if coming from a phone without an external slot and didn't know this was even an issue. Just reboot after applying the fix using the app or manually for it to take affect.
[Verizon LG G3] Colchiro:
My experience exactly, but FolderMount fixed it.

Now I have trouble with Camera forgetting where my sdcard is and I have to reset it to find the sdcard again.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Fyi, folder mount does not do the same thing as what I posted, it's a temp fix solution for a different problem that happens to work in your situation. It does not permanently edit the file in the system. Run what I posted and you won't need to run folder mount for simple write access.
[Verizon LG G3] rushless:
The good news is L apparently re-allows card writes, but the bad news is ART is required and sucks up 25% more storage space. You also need about 1GB more free space than Dalvik for ART to be the most stable.

16GG devices are becoming very 8GB now.
[Verizon LG G3] Colchiro:
Oh yea of little faith.... :D

Like I said, if FolderMount detects a problem with permissions, it'll offer to fix them, then you can uninstall the program.

I have the same permissions you listed at the top, except I installed FolderMount, ran it once, then uninstalled it. The program is intended to do other things, but it also will fix the permissions for you. We used to run it for a pre-rooted 4.4 stock rom for the Note II.

Running FolderMount is a LOT easier for people that may not want to edit a permissions file.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
I played around with that app after you mentioned it before.... Good find, and I stand corrected [emoji106]. I thought it ran a script to temporarily fix instead of actually inserting/editing system files, which does not appear to be the case.
[Verizon LG G3] Colchiro:
Sorry, I forgot my smiley to keep from sounding annoying. :D

It's not my find, I just reposted what was found to work for the Note II.
[Verizon LG G3] Samckaz:
Thanks for this great info. Question. Can the app be uninstalled after applying the fix?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Yes, the author describes how to do it in the app description, or you can remove the line manually using a root browser. But honestly, you won't need to remove it, nor want to.
[Verizon LG G3] Samckaz:
Thanks for the reply. My question was about the removal of the app, not the fix. If I uninstall the app will I lose the fix?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Ahh, yes, The fix will remain if you uninstall the app
[Verizon LG G3] Samckaz:
Thanks a million:good:
[Verizon LG G3] postal302:
Thanks for this fix also! I didn't even bother with the app but made the changes straight to the platform.xml file.

You are definately appreciated for your work!!
[Verizon LG G3] jcvermillion:
platform.xml fix for LP 5.0.1

Does the xml fix work for Lollipop 5.0.1? I am on VZW VS98523C Stock One Click Root, thanks to @avicohh, and custom recovery installed (the easy way)TWRP 2.8.6.1, thanks to @bender_007. Thank you @annoyingduck for the work that you have done with LG G3, ASOP and making available on XDA!:)

Nevermind, I rebooted after making the xml fix and now I have write capabilities to the ext SD on my LG G3! Thanks again [MENTION=4795150]annoyingduck[/MENTION] for showing us the way.
[HTC EVO 3D] lexusmike:
I am having an issue flashing newer Roms such as LS,CM, and miui. Currently I'm stuck on ICS sense. The issue is after flashing a ROM that isn't ICS sense the battery reads 0%. The phone will work normally while plugged in, but as soon as I unplug it from the charger android will shut it down because of low battery. I'm positive its charged, the battery reads correctly in TWRP. I have tried using the battery calibration app with no success.

Baseband is 1.06 and I have the engineering hboot.
[HTC EVO 3D] Archangel1:
Do You try completelly delete battery stats?

For example in 4EXTRecovery you can delete battery stats file.

I've been reading that we can get new GPU drivers from Qualcomm, it improves speed and stability. I found this: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/general/qualcomm-adreno-gpu-binaries-t2667759

Is there a dev that can make this a flashable zip for Optimus G? I've tried searching for the bin files, but they are in different places than the Nexus 4 one.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Duo8:
Try these: http://lgviet.com/forum/threads/driver-qualcomm-adreno-driver-pack.22458/ (The first link is the old version and the one below is the new version. Don't know what's the difference though.)

Remember to backup before flashing.

THE IMMORTAL TALES​

Okay, so a few days ago i dropped my WFS in the sink with the tap running while fumbling with it as i needed to turn on the flashlight because of a power cut. The back cover came off and the battery came out. I was sure that this time it was gone.DEAD. However, i dried all the parts and let them rest for 10 minutes. After re-assembling the phone i hit the power button and Voila! it booted up! Now that i come to think of it it was pretty amazing for a phone that isn't supposed to be water proof or resistant.

P.S I usually drop my phone from above five feet as well and the screen is still scratch-less:laugh:

Therefore i am creating a thread in which everyone can share tales of torture their WFS has been through. Long Live the HTC WFS!:highfive:

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android Noobie:
Hello,

I rooted my note 3 using towelroot and warranty is still 0x0.

How can i do a Nandroid backup without tripping knox.

I have been told if i install cwm or trwp it will trip.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: knox - nandroid

You cannot make nandroid backups without first

installing twrp or cwm recovery.

And yes it will trip knox, there is no way around it.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android Noobie:
Damm it.

What about mobile odin?

It says it will not increase counter.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: mobile odin

Mobile Odin cannot make nandroid backups or any other kind of backups.

Mobile Odin will trip knox if you use it to flash twrp or cwm recovery or kernels.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android Noobie:
Cheers mate.

I will just have to do without.

What happens if i install apk game files will it trip knox?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
It is perfectly safe to install apk game files and most all other apk files.

However some of the application and utility type apks may require root.

None of the apk types will effect or trip knox.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jisoo:
You can use this without a custom recovery: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.h3r3t1c.onnandbup
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android Noobie:
Will it trip knox?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: custom recovery

Sorry to say, but you are wrong, the app will only work with twrp,

cwm or some other custom recovery installed.

Requirements:

1. Rooted android phone

2. A terminal emulator installed on phone

3. Latest version of Busybox

4. A working CWM, TWRP or 4EXT based recovery installed

5. Some patience

Flashing/Installing any custom recovery will trip knox.

Looks like you have not read the full description of this

app at google playstore.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android Noobie:

Hi

Can someone port sense 6 rom from HTC one mini?

I really want to try it, it looks beautiful and smooth.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahrukhqasim:
Is it possible on locked bootloader?? Developers should answer!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamm86:
You can't just request anything here and expect it to be delivered on a plate.

Developers SHOULD answer? (With an exclamation mark)... Should, are you serious... :eek:

Might aswell ask for a new Porsche 911 as a little extra while you're at it... [\sarcasm mode off]

I get the feeling you guys are convinced it's only a matter of pushing a button and ... voila... a new ROM.

Try to behave and be grateful that allot of developers have already spent

thousands of hours

on the current available ROMS for our Xperia SP.

And for the love of god, stop asking this question in every single thread on the forum!!! It's ANNOYING!!!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironshadow2:
This my only request. What is the problem with that.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamm86:
The problem is that you're posting this question all over the forum, which is called spamming!

If you really want to have this ROM, try learning how to make them yourself instead of bothering everyone with your question like a little kid.

Don't think everything in life will be handed over to you just like that simply by asking for it.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironshadow2:
Well, I tried but I failed, I got bootloop and logcat was not working and I spent 2 weeks trying to make it work, but it did not work. This is why I came here asking someone to port it
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamm86:
I'm sure most developers have spent allot more than 2 weeks on learning how to port or build a ROM.

Just keep trying and eventually I'm sure you'll succeed. Just don't give up that easily!

Good luck!

And do note htc sense roms needs more then just a system folder port

Modded kernel

Etc

[Moto X Q&A] ConstantHero:
You ask ten people get ten different answers, stock is good if you don't want to flash this or that. Or just run a ROM for a while and go to the next one. It's all personal preference and what features you like.

First and for most this does not belong in the Development Sections as per Forum Rules.

Secondly, Best & Stable for you may not be for others. There are so many variables involved, to state which is best...apps, usage so on...

So to ask what is best & stable is something you need to find out for yourself and test...With that.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] roT-:
Hi,

Im relatively new to android devices. But since last week i own a galaxy tab 8.4 pro.

I love to tweak/mod my windows devices so why not my new galaxy tab!

I want only to root my tab so I can remove some little bloatware and have some more control of the device.

The question is, when i root my device and knox tripped 0x1 can I still get firmware updates on my stock rom?

Sorry if this is a noob question, I researched a lot but there is so much information on the internet.....:angel:
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] mike-y:
once you have root, you can't get OTA updates unless you un-root back to stock. tripping knox does not matter in this case.

However, more than likely you can manually flash the update shortly after release. After a few days, someone usually posts an update file that you can flash in recovery.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] roT-:
Ok thank u very much for ur answer :)
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] jericko:
I rooted just so I could use my SD card.

I am new to this as well, but will share what I have learned from allot of reading.

New Firmware is posted here a day or two after being released:

http://www.sammobile.com/

You need to register, but do not need to pay for a prem account, a free one will let you download the updates.

Once you get the update, these are the instructions posted right on the site:

Instructions

Extract (unzip) the firmware file

Download Odin v3.09

Extract Odin zip-file

Open Odin v3.09

Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)

Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

Add the firmware file to AP / PDA

Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked

Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes

Hope that helps.
