[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tavery:
Hi, I have rbox's custom recovery installed and a FAT32 32GB flash drive and wireless keyboard connected through a USB hub. Before I decided to upgrade to the newest pre-rooted ROM I thought I'd make a backup through CWM in case something went wrong. The custom recovery does not see my USB drive, but I figured I could back it up to internal and then move the backup file to the external through ES Files Explorer afterwards. From CWM I went to "Backup to SDCARD" and the app went through the process of creating a backup and then completed. I rebooted, loaded ES File Explorer, and looked for the backup... which I cannot find. The internal storage reflects the fact that the backup is somewhere on there, but I am unable to find it. I've searched for zip files through the internal (and external) device and cannot seem to locate it. I'm wondering where the default location for this is, or if there is some other way I can track it down? Thanks!

Clockwork stores them in a semi hidden location. They are in /data/media/clockworkmod
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tavery:
Ahhh.... there they are. Now my precious space is back. Thanks rbox!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KillerJoeBR:
If the custom recovery cant see your external usb drive then how do you will restore if something goes wrong?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] to0:
This is a good question. If USB storage should automatically be mounted when recovery starts, what directory do backups need to be in in order for CWM to see them and offer to restore them?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbox:
I think it looks in a clockworkmod directory in the root. But multiple people are reporting they aren't seeing the option for /dev/sda in backup/restore, so it's probably just broken. Unfortunately to get USB storage working I had to modify one of the core Android libraries and haven't tested it in a while. So it might just be broken.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tavery:
My hope was that at the very least, that I could copy the backup from the USB drive to the internal memory before attempting a restore. Or, that I could use adb to push it to it. I realize both scenarios assume that thr device is at least still functioning in a state that one or the other options is possible. I'm just glad rbox spent the time to develop this and share it with the community.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arstorm.Z:
Hi everyone!

I heard a lot of whining about locked bootloaders and answers just to pay for unlock and etc. However no so long ago in august on xda appeared http://www.xda-developers.com/android/qualcomm-security-exploit-djrbliss/ post about new exploit in quallcom soc's which should obviously affect our phone. This could really help for people like me with locked bl.

So has anyone heard something about using it IRL?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
There is no unofficial unlock of bootloaders available

This has been talked about before

If you read the last paragraph of the article you linked to (Seen here http://prntscr.com/4ph7dk) you will see that although the vulnerability was found it is also not going to be released to the general public, but given to the OEMs so they can fix it.

Also, there should be no advertising of paid for services on XDA, especially since if you can unlock your bootloader it is free to do it the official way and if anyone is taking your money for an unofficial unlock you are most likely being conned because there is no unofficial unlock.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arstorm.Z:
Thank you for the reply! Unfortunately highly likely there is no official way to unlock my bl. My phone is sim-free but bl unlock is not allowed so I have no idea how to unlock it. :(

Also I checked comments section and found "On the summary page are enough information for any dev to write a exploit :)" http://www.xda-developers.com/android/qualcomm-security-exploit-djrbliss/#comment-1538589467

I'm just worried because after the end of support from sony there will be no possibility to switch to newer versions of android.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigpapa007:
So... this recently happened some weeks ago, first it just randomly happened and it only lasted a couple of secs so i didn't mind it.

starting about 4 days ago it started happening normally and really often so i thought it was a ROM or something related so i did a full wipe and installed the cloudy g3 2.0 and... the same problem over and over and now my phone basically is unusable, it happens every like 3 or 5 seconds and then i cant do anything with it. the Screen gets like totally pixelated(?)

does someone know what should i do? hardware problem most likely right? it even happens in the twrp recovery screen:crying::crying::crying:

i found this pics on another forum and this is exactly what happens to me. that guy still had warranty and just got it fixed there. i don't have warranty anymore as it has expired.

i would really like to know what is happening guys, any help or explanation would be really thanked.

As title, does anyone know how long is AT&T holding the exclusive Moto maker this time? I was planning to order for t-mobile and got blocked off by it :(

can't really wait much longer on the phone almost tempted just go to back to the 2013 model instead......
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tacosrdelicioso:
Just do the pure edition I don't see a problem here
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vince0312:
You can only do that for 16gb but not 32 as of now
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreenMunky:
I know MotoMaker goes live for Verizon on Friday. Maybe T-Mobile sometime soon.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phermey:
the pure version is the tmobile. it sounds like they are still out of the 32g. try a white face with 32gb option. and then go back to black. that was working a few days ago. to answer the question... there was no exclusive for at&t at all. the tmo/pure edition was available from the start and verizon is always the last to get their version in, it is cdma.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Infekxion:
A little of topic but I wanted to pick up a screen protector today and Verizon said the phone doesn't exist, AT&T (my service provider) said they don't carry it. Best Buy was like "what?" and Radio Shack said they only have accessories for newer phones. I don't think there's an exclusion on it.

You could get 32 last week. They are sold out for now... must be too popular. As with the first-gen X, there is no T-mo specific model, jsust unlocked (why would you want anything else?). I'm holding out a few weeks - hopefully news of the new Nexus will give me another option.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vince0312:
still no luck as of today, I guess it's just out of stock for now.

Stopped by AT&T store today to check out the actual phone and they said they are not getting it in yet either. Wonder how long this thing get hold off from the market

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] fusion5ny:
yes, i have searched the web and some methods seem to have worked for other phones

however, i can't find this issue address on the S5

i already tried dropping a .nomedia file in the folder where i have pdf files, and even moving them to phone memory

this indexservice keeps running and draining battery for days

even went as far as trying to root with towelroot since it doesnt void warranty like other methods but my updated phone is not supported (was trying to disable the process)

some posts for note 3 mentioned a way to uncheck files that u don't want indexed but i can't find this on the S5

also tried taking out the sd card...indexservice still persistent

has anyone found a way, without rooting and voiding warranty which i need, to get rid of this indexservice battery drain that doesn't go away?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Waiting4MyAndroid:
I had the same issue a while back. It started after I copied a bunch of Movie files to SD card. First I thought it was the large media file size, but it turned out to be the long file name. Once I shortened the file names the Indexing Service stopped draining the battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jdock:
I had a problem with it too, apparently the exif info on some of the files I had on my sd card didn't make the indexing service happy. This also meant a lot of my pictures weren't showing up in the gallery app, though they showed up in others like quickpic. I initially just moved off all my pictures and moved a few at a time back until I found the offender, and I noticed then that quickpic had an exif fix option - and when I used this, that picture was no longer an issue.

I ended up finding an exif fixup app that was made for a different issue but still let me fix up everything in a batch and everything has been fine since then.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] fusion5ny:
i don't know how u figured it out or why it matters on a modern top of the line phone but the shortened file names for pdf files and movies seemed to have worked...index service ran for the night while on charger and then no longer appeared to drain the battery...thanks a lot for the tip!...i'm gonna hold off on trying to figure out what exif info is unless the problem comes back
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] fusion5ny:
so it looks like it didn't work after all...indexservice is back and drains the battery like crazy...renamed the files and it didn't help...it went away for a couple days but came back...even stopping the service doesn't work as it comes back on it's on shortly later...clearing the cache and app data doesn't work either....so helpless with massive battery drain, sad story...how isn't anyone else getting this problem don't people use pdf files on their phones?...any other solutions? i don't know what this dude is talking about with the exif fix for images thing or how to do that but that can't possibly be causing the problem right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] fusion5ny:
just to help anyone else out...since the problem wasn't going away i looked back into rooting...since my phone had the latest update, towelroot wouldn't work....i used the following guide and video to get towelroot to root the phone without tripping knox and the warranty (in the final step of the video don't select disable knox in supersu to play it safe)...then i used titanium backup to freeze the indexservice and problem finally solved.....samsung phone info from the playstore lets u see if the knox warranty is void...if it says 0x0 you're good

Download BetterBatteryStats (there's a free version on XDA)

You can get a decent amount of information regarding wakelocks, partial wakelocks, alarms, etc..

There's also the possibility that your battery could by dying, if you want to know for sure either use something like BBS or reflash/reset to factory.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroManDev:
So currently I am running LiquidSmooth 3.2 Nightly 9-21 and I found out there was an update for Stock Rom from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4. So Should I update to 4.4.4 and if so is there a method to do so considering I am rooted at 4.4.2?

Though my plan is to update to 4.4.4 and then return to my root and the rom. What are your thoughts? Should I stay with that I have or update to 4.4.4 and if so, how?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
If you're going back to the same ROM you might as well just stay there unless you want to try it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroManDev:
Do you think updating to 4.4.4 make a difference tho? Will anything change?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
What do you want to compare it to? Touchwiz or aosp? If you're looking for it to improve or add to your experience on liquidsmooth, it won't
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroManDev:
Nothing to my baseband or anything? If not then I might as well stay. Thanks dude :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Well baseband is newer but you can just flash that separately
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
Unless you plan on doing the stock thing and being an average Joe, flash the NH7 modem and stay at 4.4.2. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroManDev:
What is NH7 modem? Noob status
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroManDev:
If I do flash the NH7 modem, won't that change my firmware as well?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
You can Google on what the modem/baseband does. And it won't mess with your firmware.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HKSpeed:
what the major benefits of the 4.4.4 update? Better reception with the new modems? UI changes? My understanding of the 4.4.3 to 4.4.4 update was to stop exploit used by TowelRoot, but I don't recall what the 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 update involved.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
I haven't seen the 4.4.4 UI but I did flash the new modem and it is a little better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
There was no 4.4.3. We went from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4.

My data speeds are alot faster. No dropped signal. Better LTE speeds.

UI is the same.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Just a few toggles changed a little bit if you really look at it.. And feels faster and smoother to me too, no more of those annoying animation stutters that plagued 4.4.2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroManDev:
So How do I update?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
Get the 4.4.4 firmware from sammobile.com, DL Odin 3.07 (or 3.09) onto your computer, unzip the firmware and place the tar.md5 file into the PDA slot in Odin, boot your phone into DL mode, connect your phone to computer and when Odin says your phone is added, press start. Once your phone boots back up (or Odin says "passed") you are done
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AndroManDev:
So It's no big deal if I'm rooted right now?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
No. It will put the new firmware on your phone rooted or not
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
No sir. But you will have to root it again after you flash

In pretty desperate need of the stock system rom for the MT2-L03 HAM2. Right now my only hope is to flash it from the stock recovery as an update.zip. Someone already pointed me to what Xordos has linked but it would not flash.

If anyone can provide this as a sticky for the entire community it would be greatly appreciated.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] oncouch1:
There is no released ROM yet. The files I suggested were if you know adb and could overwrite the ones that were corrupted. Once TWRP released then you will have options. Until then sit tight . there is a supposed ROM on a foreign site but it requires payment to download and a different version so who knows if it will even work. Again once we get a working custom recovery you will get more help. :) If you want to try the other ROM search MT2-L03 rom .

[General Topics] Menneisyys:
1.1 Web-based end-user applications

1.1.1 LogMeIn

Probably the most important and most recommended Web-based application, unless you need advanced PIM / mail access functionality, is LogMeIn. It, basically, has two versions: the free LogMeIn Free, which only offers remote control (with all the advantages of web-based access: firewall support, on-the-fly, easy client install requiring almost no user intervention or setup etc.) and LogMeIn Pro, which, in addition to remote controlling your desktop, also supports file transfer (with desktop clients, bidirectional, with Pocket PC clients, download only) and, for non-Pocket PC clients,

Remote Printing to print remote files locally, on the printer attached to client

File Sharing to easily share large files, without uploads (similar to, say, MegaUpload)

Guest Invite to share the desktop for remote collaboration

File Synchronization to synchronize files & folders of the client and the remote desktop

Security (256-bit SSL encryption)

As can be seen, the Pocket PC version, unfortunately, is decidedly worse than the desktop PC one – as is the case with, unfortunately, most of the reviewed applications.

If you opt for going for the Pro version, you can bring down the price by just declining the LogMeIn Pro update after the Pro trial period is over (note that if you go right for the Free version, you get a Pro trial too). Then, you’ll be sent a mail that offers another 30% rebate, bringing down the annual price to $44.95. It’s a pretty friendly and highly recommended price if you take the price of the other solutions into account (and don’t need their unique features; for example, the PIM access features of the two times more expensive I’m InTouch or the excellent bandwidth usage of the four times more expensive GoToMyPC).

Note that earlier versions had problems with WM5 AKU2 devices. This has been fixed in later versions and isn’t an issue any more.

More info: The free version of the LogMeIn service has also been mentioned in the “What Is The Best Free Service?” thread at PPCT.

Some screenshots (note that you'll find a LOT more in the comparison / feature chart!): Local client install to add computers; after it’s installed, it’ll prompt you. The server-side settings dialog is browser-based as can be seen in here.

Verdict

A well-behaving, stable, useful application. The free version is probably the most recommended, really-easy-to-set-up-and-access application, working in any networking environment, for casual, not necessarily power users not wanting to have external PIM access.
