[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
Yeah but .apk files have no value beyond installing. Your never going to have the equivalent of that picture.

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 PM ----------

And you've both misunderstood what the apps2sd apps are. They're completely irrelevant to what your trying to achieve.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Banana4Life:
What do you mean by "no value beyond installing. Your never going to have the equivalent of that picture", and also where have I been going wrong with the app2sd apps?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
Well that's what the apks are there for installing. If you download an apk and install it (click on it) the only use of keeping the downloaded apk is if you uninstall the app. You can then install it again.

Apps2sd apps are for phones with sdcard slots. You can partition the sdcard ( fat32 + ext4) and the second partition (ext4) acts as a extension of the /data (where installed app are). There's a lot more to those type of apps but I'm not going into it all. Irrelevant to usb-on-the-go (any storage going thru the micro USB port)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Banana4Life:
So Im just thinking it will act like an actual sdcard slot, but it wont. So the apk thing will work?...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
No it doesn't act like a built-in SDslot. It acts like you've just plugged a memory stick into it.

Yeah copying apks will work it's just a file. Like copying any file. I just don't see what your going to gain from that. Your not going to be able to have more apps installed (ready to run).

The only practical use I've found for meenova is sharing pictures from my camera to my phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Urantia:
I have it on auto, and it takes a good 5 seconds or more to take the photo. There is a blue circle that goes round and round, and it says "hold phone still to get the photo"...then after five or more seconds, it takes the picture with mixed results.

I thought it was HDR on, but I checked and it's off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Urantia:
Am I doing something wrong? My Galaxy Nexus was instant on auto, my Nokia 1520 was instant on auto....so I assume it must be something I am missing. This phone has GOT to be beyond brilliant when it comes to the camera....16 mega pixels and all.

Any tips or tricks?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] bigtexan99:
I'm having the same issue if anyone knows a way to have the camera take a picture quicker that would be great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] lthary:
The fix for me it was easy. I have turned off the picture stabilization and no more circle spinning:)
[LG Optimus 3D] malatyaspor:

Hey guys, i'm new to this whole rooting/recovery/kernel stuff. I've searched google, and xda forums, but i just cant find where or how to install CWM or TWRP. To throw a wrench in things, im a Mac user, however i do have access to a windows pc if needed. On Mac i have Sony Mobile Flasher as the tool i've used mostly. Any help is appreciated.

You now have Custom Recovey

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MotoXoom:
Not sure if Xperia Z2 follows the same procedure....

I don't think that this works for Z2!!

The recovery image file you are supplying is for Xperia C

Maybe a Dev can shed some light on this :)

Until a Dev has confirmed this file and procedure working for Z2 I would suggest that you don't try this :)

Just my humble opinion!!!

The link for proper Z2 procedure is in post #2
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackos:
No, this won't work as the Z2 doesn't have a partition for recovery. Do not try following those instructions.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
you can root your device using the tools found in the development sections for Z2

they are simple and easy to use, one click kinda things

similar to recovery installer, also can be found in development sections

take note, the Z2 does not contain a recovery partition so any recoveries will be in a kernel which you need to unlock your bootloader to install

if your looking for any info please read through threads, or check help thread or... check other threads if you cant find what your looking for

this has already been mentioned but i sometimes like to post more details or just write differently because even i have troubles understanding english sometimes

Yep just what I thought.

[MENTION=5955083]iSiddharth[/MENTION]

You should take more care with your posts and stay device specific.

Just because it works for Xperia C doesn't mean it works for Z2.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iSiddharth:
CWM works for All devices, I was using that in Xperia C, my friend used that in Xperia SP also and that worked
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
havent i said before, Z2 is too different

LK39 boot can not interprate that of a gen 3 Xperia of which all xperias before Z2 are single step S1

it will fail boot or fail recovery boot

1. the recovery image only works on xhdpi screens not xxhdpi

2. its probably made for 4.1.2/4.2.2/4.3.1 since both C and SP do not have KK

3. not even Z1 files work on Z2 and they are simular devices in some ways
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iSiddharth:
Okkk, it means that Sony has over secured Xperia Z2
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kotton666:
I used this to root http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2783750

And this to install recoveries http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2785598

Just follow the instructions. I swear it was the easiest root and recovery install I've ever done. It took literally less than 10 minutes for both and I'm far from an expert. I just read the steps first and follow them exactly.

You'll need a windows pc and the correct drivers but just read the first post in each thread properly and you'll be fine.

conveniently play Android games that have controller support like Dead Trigger, or Soulcraft

access Xbox 2nd screen apps that support landscape mode

You will need the USB BT app to configure the controller with these games...

The case is available for PS3, PS4 and Xbox 360 controllers as well, but this giveaway is only for the Xbox One!

I can't seem to move apps to the internal sd(16gb),because the sdcard0 tray in settings/app is not present, but when I mount usb storage on my pc, the storage is present,even on file managers

Help pls :(
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
You can't exactly... the "internal storage" in your screen shot is the /data partition for installing applications, that is the normal place apps go. Under normal circumstances you cannot install apps to your internal (12.5GB) storage, it is considered external storage to the operating system, hence why it is in /sdcard0 and your real microSD card is /sdcard1. To use these areas for apps you must use a tool like App2SD, Link2SD, or similar app, and only some apps can be moved, if it has a widget it cannot be moved and there are a few other rules that it will ward you about.
[HTC Rezound] Frazercrib:
Okay.... So I did what you said and tried link2sd, but when moving apps to SD I get an 'INSUFFICIENT STORAGE ERROR'

And isn't there suppose to be an 'move to SD card' option in this app?
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
No, not in KitKat anyways, it doesn't have the SD card support that ICS had, Google hates SD cards for some reason, and has been limiting SD card support more and more in each Android version since Ice Cream Sandwich.

As far as the error in Link2SD, not sure, I haven't used it in years... Sorry.
[HTC Rezound] Frazercrib:
I can be able to move apps to sdcard0 on omni kitkat rom...guess I'll stick 2 it,other kitkat roms excluding liquidsmooth and omni are a bit laggy
[HTC Rezound] netookska05:
Sounds like you need to format the internal storage then mount it and just for good measure backup the external and format that and then mount too. I had a similar problem and when I did this all is well. I hope this helps.
[HTC Rezound] Frazercrib:
Still a no show
[HTC Rezound] sexyleigho:
Format internal

How do you go about formatting the internal sd card. I just went from 4.2 to 4.4.4 and now TWRP and CWM recoveries will not mount and recognize the internal card. I can't even access the internal card to format it or anything else. How do I go about fixing this. 4.4.4 is pretty sweet.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesiki:
Help guys, my phone went swimming in the sea. I turned it off immediately and let it dry off, but the volume rocker doesn't seem to be working anymore. It does not react to my touches, but is constantly pressing VolUp or VolDown (I can't tell which one).

When I first started it, I got a bootloop, so I went into recovery and reflashed my ROM. It is booting now, but only in safe mode (since the volume rocker is constantly pressing). Is there any way to disable safe mode, maybe via adb or something? Or to disable the volume keys software-side?

The OS is Jelly Bean by the way (not that it matters). Everything else is working perfectly fine.

Similar question here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/help/volume-button-broken-causing-phone-to-t1738636
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
Probably, you'll need to pull the phone apart, and either clean, or replace the small volume rocker board. You can find them on eBay for pretty cheap. It's usually only a last resort to look for software fixes for hardware issues. The Nexus 4 is relatively easy to disassemble and replace parts, since everything is modular. I don't know if you have Radio Shack or an equivalent in Germany, but there's a duo of products called DeOxit and ProGold. DeOxit cleans contacts (silver, copper) from oxidation, and ProGold increases conductivity. This might be enough to clean your volume board contacts enough to work without replacing it. Of course, it is possible that the logic board is damaged, in which case you might be screwed. Replacement motherboards cost as much as a used phone does.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
It's not typical of course. That is obvious when you compare your time to the vast majority of other posts. You are clearly on the short end. But not unheard of either.

Why is impossible to discern since you haven't provided many details. 4.5 hours of screen time.. but how much time overall? How much connection time to Wifi and a lot of other things? Detailed battery stats showing how much time various apps and services are on would offer hints. If your net and texting are LTE connections and you have a few piggish apps, there you go.

You may have GPS off, but audio apps can be heavy draws because music play will spin hundreds or thousands of wakelocks. Some players are worse than others. But you didn't tell us which ones you are using or how much music play either. Some apps like Tunein can be abysmal. Apps that constantly poll the net like Google Now or poll the camera like Skype can put dents in your run time.

Perhaps you have a bad, damaged or third party battery. And so on and so forth. We don't have nearly enough details. All we can say for certain is that you appear to have a very short run time. But that wouldn't be at all unexpected if half of a dozen of your heavily used apps tend to be heavy draws. If you debloated your system, optimized a few things and made some tweaks, you might well find that your run time increased 50%.
