no, i didn't think you was so "noob", but i prefer, usually, to suggest kdz & LGMDP as last chance, because also you know with these you can hard brik your phone.

happy for your lucky restore, maybe next time you can follow the 2-3 guides to unbrick the phone & FAQ

It's about ART/dalvik cache. Installed apps aren't just the apk, but executable (.dex format) used as cache is placed inside /data partition resulting bigger in size. Apps may have libs files packed inside, they will be copied in /data partition too

[General Questions and Answers] MarcosAlba:
Hello everyone,

My name is Marcos Alba and I'm the co-founder of a collective gambling platform called SocialBets. As you know, gambling apps are not allowed in Google Play and we are figuring out the best way of distributing the app among our users. So far, we are considering these options (ordered by preference):

1 - Stub app that allows to download the complete version. The idea is to upload to Google Play the complete app eliminating the payment process and at some point allow users to download the complete app and explain them the process step-by-step.

2 - Upload the app to some other marketplace: Amazon Appstore, etc.

3 - Place a link with the apk in our website.

Which option do you think is best? Do you know any other way of doing this?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Marcos

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] SRCP:
A long time ago I sent my phone in for repairs (screen). I factory reset it and lost root. I don't even remember how I rooted it, it was an automated tool. After it came back from repairs, it still had 4.2.2 and MDL (it was a repair shop not Samsung).

Whenever I reset/turn phone off and back on, I get an error about com.android something, but only then, it works normally after. Due to this error, my phone tries to upgrade but fails (thankfully). I want to root my phone but I'm afraid it will fail because of that error. What exactly should I do next? I asked in another thread and I was told Motochopper was the best tool to root on 4.2.2. I just want to get rid of this error then root, that's it, what should I do next?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] SRCP:
But do you think I can just use it the way my phone is now? Someone told me to do a Factory Reset with Odin, but I have no idea how to do that. All the tutorials I find mention downloading something (apart from Odin itself), why would I need to do that if I'm just resetting?

This is the error I get "com.android.phone has stopped working".

I think I've already tried factory resetting with the physical buttons method and I still keep getting that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Odin flashes the factory firmware, it does a lot more than a factory reset. You need to download the mdl firmware and flash that in Odin. You can get it at sammobile.com. It's a zip file, you need to extract it using 7-zip or win rar. After it's extracted you end up with a .tar.md5 file. That's what you use in Odin.

If you do flash it, the phone will want to update via the ota. You should make sure it doesn't do that by rooting it and freezing out deleting the update apps. There are three files and I don't remember their names

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Venomous Duck:
I am having a really strange issue with my Blaze. I am not sure if it is a hardware problem due to a faulty USB or if it is from the Rom. I put a new jack in a month or so ago. I started using tthaz777 stock ICS 4.0.4 shortly after. A week ago the phone prompted me for an update, I declined it because I didnt want to loose my root. The next day I received another prompt, I accidentally confirmed so I did a battery pull. On reboot I got the expected message the update failed, but everything was working fine with 4.0.4. Next came a Simpsons update, I got the dreaded not enough space error (even though I had plenty). I read to clear the cache to solve this so I did and everything installed fine. About an hour after that my Home button went all screwy. When pressing home from inside an app (or while on a home screen to jump to the main home screen) instead of taking me home I jump to a different screen I have never seen before. It resembles a lock screen, except I don't need to swipe the screen to get by it. Hitting the back button or the X brings me back to the last app I was in. I figured it may have been something from either wiping the cache or stopping the update. I went to recovery and wiped cache and data and reinstalled 4.0.4. Seemed to work, for a few days. I did some app updates and out of the blue it started up again. I reinstalled after a complete wipe and it didn't solve the problem. I noticed sometimes it will do it while charging but go back to normal as soon as I unplug it which has me thinking I have a bad solder joint from the jack install and it is some type of charge screen, but I don't ever remember seeing it before and can't find a matching image on the net. I tried going back to 4.0.2 to see if I could duplicate it but the camera is buggy and it is painfully slow. I guess I'll have to try a KitKat versoin, which I despise to see if I can get it to happen again. Anyone had similar problems?

Before I left for Germany, I did some research and there's methods that suggested I needed to flash back to stock ROM. I wasn't able to get to the special screen to type in the generic code. However, my understanding is that's for an unofficial unlock with a generic code.

I didn't have a non-t-mobile sim card to try the official code when I was in the US. I now have a German SIM card but it's not taking the unlock code I got from T-mo. Any suggestions?

Just so I'm clear on it, an official code from T-mo is good for any ROM any firmware??
