If phone is not detected by device manager....

After much further internet search, I managed to complete the steps and my Phone has the increased memory now! Thanks to the developer... :). May I add the additional steps I had to do (so that another layman might find it easier to implement the steps).

1) Go to http : / / gsmbdmobile. blogspot. in /2013/ 10/ mtk-6577-usb-vcom-driver-download. html and follow the steps (for detection of your phone in the PC Device manager). Download the relevant drivers at the bottom of the post. [I found step 10 of this procedure difficult as double clicking on the item which appear only for couple of seconds in the device manager was quite dicey. So, I had to go to another thread the follow the steps: http : / / thebroodle.com/ microsoft/ windows/ how-to-install-mtk65xx-preloader-usb-vcom-drivers-in-windows/

2) Even after the above, I did not exactly get the phone listed in the device manager, instead I had "MediaTek DA USB VCOM Port" listed under "Ports". [I right clicked on this item to update the driver as described under step 3 in the original post of this thread].

I am not sure, but I think, all the downloaded zip files should be extracted into a single folder (instead the different sub-folders I had created because of which the updation required me to manually point to the sub folders :) but this should be easy for even a 'layman' I think.)

Thanks again to the great direction in the original post in this thread. So happy that there are guys who really want to help others without expecting any rewards!! Great guys and thanks again.

Micromax a120 phone stroage problem

I followed all the steps mentioned by you, but still a am struggling to install mtk driver(my phone is not showing in device manager). mtk driver file downloaded many times for update version. Pls help me if i am not doing proper.
[Micromax A120 Canvas 2 Colors] knvn:
Remember, I mentioned I am a 'layman', and no expert! With that caution, let me briefly recapitulate the steps once again. Please read my (1st July) post once again - I mentioned in (2) that I did not see my 'phone' listed, but only a 'port'.

(see the post date & post number for clarity):

1) 1st July 2015, 02:02 PM |#63 . First link in (1). Carry out all the steps if you can, else do steps upto & including 9.

2) If you managed to do all steps in 1 above, then now go to step 3 here. If you managed to do only steps upto 9, then go to second link in (1).

3) No go to the original post steps - you should be able to do it now, I hope.

(As I mentioned earlier, it would be better to 'extract' all downloaded files into a single folder so that the system can automatically identify the required files; else you may have to manually point the files, which may be difficult for a layman, I think.)

The steps worked for me and hope it does for you. But as is customary, please do no blame me if something goes wrong, I refuse to take any responsibility in that matter.

You are free not to do anything I suggested above. (Once again, I do not claim to be an expert here at all).

Good luck.

Save .Zip file to your sd card and Power off your phone, press up+down volume+ power button..it will open cwm recovery (if you have installed it), go to flash file from external SD card by pressing down volume button and hit power button, it will process, phone will reboot and its done..its rooted.

Please explain it in start to finish.
[Micromax A120 Canvas 2 Colors] sujoyspeedex:
Switch off your phone, keep the battery inside, connect it to your pc via USB cable, go to device manager, it will show an ⚠ sign beside your device, right click on it and update driver software, select manual installation and browse to the location where you have kept the drivers. If you're on Windows 7, you'll just see a warning dialogue box, click on install anyway.

If you're on Windows 8 or 10, go to troubleshoot , startup settings and click press the 7 key, "Disable driver signature verification". Your pc will restart and you'll be able to install the driver.

In windows 10, if your device doesn't show up, right click on the computer ? icon and click on add legacy hardware then follow the steps as above. :)

Worked on my Stock Kitkat 8GB. A few things I noticed:

1. In Windows 10, disabling driver signature enforcement helps in installing drivers.

2. It was giving errors in new version of SP Flash Tool, but the the attached version worked fine.

I was still not satisfied with 2.1 GB App partition, so modified another one for 2.65 GB App Partition and tested on the same.

Can't paste the download link now as I am a new user, would post it soon.

Phone is not displayed on Device Manager

I have tried to follow this steps to increase the app storage in my Micromax Canvas 2 colors A120 (8GB), but when I try to update the driver the phone is not there in Device Manager.

I have done both ways-

Taking out the battery and then connecting to PC through USB.

AND

Without taking out the battery but switching the phone off.

It still doesn't show.

But it shows under Portable Devices in Device Manager when i enable MTP and without turning the phone off connect through USB.

Should I update the driver like that ? Will it work ?

Please help me.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tomcrable:
I am running the June 19 build of a CyanogenMod based on version 11-20140620-Sultan-skyrocket (Android 4.4.4).

I was working to reorganize my music library and finally dump iTunes. I am experimenting with a new Music Player that requires a USB synch using MTP.

The main reason for the switch from iTunes is that a lot of my Music is Lossless encoded and it just takes up too much room on my phone. I could not find an iTunes synching solution that would transcode those large files to a smaller format during the synch process (unless I go with an iPod / iPhone).

When I switch my phone to MTP mode, the PC (Windows 8.1) does not recognize it. If I switch to Mass Storage (UMS) the phone shows up in the file explorer.

Any suggestions on how to get the MTP working would be appreciated.

Thanks

Go to device manager and look for the the icon with an exclamation mark, with your phone hooked up to usb. Right click on it and update software. Then go to where it says let me pick from a list..... Choose android composite adb interface. It'll ask you if your sure, just say yes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tomcrable:
Sorry for the slow reply and Thanks for the post. Unfortunately Windows would not let me update the driver in error in the Device Manager. It said it was an unrecognized USB Device and would not browse for additional drivers. I tried every way I could think of to "force" it.

Just to help determine what might be going on, I restored the ATT / Samsung ICS using CWM. Unfortunately I am having similar issues with that. Sometimes the USB connects and sometimes it is unrecognized. I tested the cables and my Windows 8.1 PC with my Galaxy 5 (stock ATT KITKAT) and everything seems to work fine. I guess the micro USB port on my phone must be going bad.

Thanks again

Hi

I missed the HTC One At&t OTA updates ( 4.3 and then the 4.4 Sense 6 ) for my phone. I know i can side load them.

I have been searching for Stock ROMs given during OTA.

Can i directly update to the 4.4 update package and skip the 4.3 update ? Is it safe ?

Also can anybody direct me to the links for the 4.3 package and the 4.4 package and the steps. I have a thread which has the 4.4 package, just was searching for steps and the 4.3 package.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2659374

Also, as a curiosity , i read people requesting At&t to 'push' a specific version to a subscriber , by asking a code to be dialed on the phone. How does this system work ? Do they push on the basics of IMEI ?

One more experimental thing, if i change the date of my phone back when 4.3 was released , is it possible that i shall get a OTA update from At&t server when i check for it ?? has anybody tried this ?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] clsA:
just flash the 3.xx.502.x RUU in my thread and you will get the OTA updates if your on AT&T and in the US
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] anirudhgargi:
Thanks . Sorry , not currently in US and also not on At&t.

Sorry currently not in US and not on At&t . Any other way ?

Surpisingy HTC website tells a way to flash ROM on t-mobile HTC one but not on At&t one. It says OTA only.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Solarenemy68:
If you are not in the US or on AT&T then the push request would not work for you either as it come from AT&T.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] anirudhgargi:
No way to get At&t update if outside US and not on At&t. ROM flashing is the way.

if you are not in US and not on At&t network currently . I checked there are no proper OTA files for the AT&T to update via OTA method if you are stuck on 4.1 ( 1.25. xxxx) . Via OTA files user data is preserved. No need to re-setup your device.

So you can't just go without flashing the phone and re-setup of old apps and stuff is required.

Now that you have to flash the phone its so much better to leave At&T builds. They have the highest amount of junk ( bloatware) in their builds. At&t phone book app i hate you.

So, do one step more and convert your phone to a generic version. US developer version is the best. Updates are faster and directly from HTC. And Rom has no issues.

That one step more is changing your CID and MEID in fastboot menu. ( it requires a S-off , and S-off might require a root. Root might require a TWRP recovery and SU binary steps ) .

If you on 1.44 Hboot the story is easy , just s-off via revone and unlock bootloader( i guess not needed !) and then flash a JB (4.3) binary first and then update to KK. Don't jump to KK directly with RUU.exe method . It fails with image error 158. I spent 5 hours figuring why this error !!!

Also can be converted to any other edition by changing the respective CID and MEID. Later make sure the CID is correct to receive the future OTA updates.

PS : T-Mobile is so much better in terms of pushing OTA. I had a m7 t-mobile SIM unlocked outside US. Never had a issue for any OTA. All were pushed on time.

Very unprofessional of At&t, that they want only their 'active' At&t members only to get the updates.

IF they see that the update binary is already same for all and is ready, its just server bandwidth they need, to extend OTA to non-At&t subscribers using an At&t phone.

Has anyone got experience of using microsoft reader with the 320 by 240 smaller portrait screens like the Orbit will have. I now use my XDA2 (Alpine) to read novels I buy from ebooks.com and prefer it to lugging around paper books. I fancy an Orbit when it comes out, but I'm worried that increasing the font size to something reasonable on the orbit screen might make pages frustratingly short.

...... by the way the ideal phone/PDA/ebook for me would be an Alpine sized unit but half as thick and half the weight. But with the VGA resolution screen. Does such a beast exist?

hi

it has been a while now, my Google Account is screwing up the sync to my Samsung Sgs2 every 2 weeks or so, I used to remove and put back the Google account and that fixed it. now that doesn't work anymore.

unless I click on "sync" is not doing anything so basically not "pushing" emails anymore....

is there something that could fix it? ive reinstalled gmail, etc etc. nothing helped... I am assuming I should reinstall the OS?

many thanks

[General Questions and Answers] gabriolinari:
hi

something bad must have happened last night / this morning. I had again the sync problem, gmail not download any email or sending anything out from my mobile.

I did again

Workaround:

I force-stopped, cleared data on "Google Services Framework", Gmail app, and Play Store. Rebooted the device. Open Play Store, Agree to the terms. Open Gmail, let it do its "first time setup" (takes about 2 minutes).

But this time when you open Google Play it's saying "check your connection and try again", grey screen, nothing happening, I tried empty cache as well. I can swipe from the left side and I see my email there with "redeem, settings and help & feedback" but nothing loads. I updated manually to very latest GPS apk.

opened Gmail and it's still syncing, nothing happens.

any ideas? seriously upset that they keep changing things!

thanks
[General Questions and Answers] gabriolinari:
after some fiddling around, I have removed gmail, reinstalled (I like an old version), nada, so then I went and removed the Google Account as I thought, well why not? that did the trick, Gmail started working again and after a bit of clicks I got the Google Play working again. Now calendar sync is screwing up a bit lol.....never working at once!

Earlier I did try to delete the hosts file in ETC as someone suggested but that didn't help.

thought to add my 2 cents.
