ExtSD Fix.apk doesn´t fix the issue on my Note 4, 910C

Hello Kadiremrah & Dr. Ketan,

I am also on the Note 4 910C-model, running Dr. Ketan´s ROM, but can´t manage to write on the sd-card. I tried Dr. Ketan´s "ExtSD Fix.apk", as well as the method below.

This is the setting how the platform.xml looks on my device:

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >

<group gid="sdcard_r" />

<group gid="sdcard_rw" />

<group gid="media_rw" />

</permission>

I followed the instructions neatly, no typo, rooted, etc. but to no avail. Many months ago I already applied the same SD-card-fix on my previous phone (LG G2) - at that time it worked perfectly.

Here is some further info that I gathered from Root Explorer . Maybe there is something not correct with those settings.

The owner of the "storage/extSdCard"-Folder is: Owner: 0 - root; Group 0 - root

The permissions of the "storage/extSdCard"-Folder are set to: 0771

The permissions for mnt/media_rw are set to: 0700

I tried to set the permissions for mnt/media_rw to 0744, which immediately after the change gets displayed on the Root Explorer properly. But after a reboot it automatically goes back to 0700.

Any ideas what could be wrong here?

I just noticed that in the Note 4, storage/external_SD is called storage/extSdCard instead. Could that be causing the problem?

Kadiremrah, it would be very interesting to compare those settings with your 910C-model.
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] dr.ketan:
Try other SD card bcoz ROM is already prefixed for ext SD writing
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] Parinibbana:
Spot on, Doc.

I tried another card, works perfectly. Back to the previous one - same problem.

Then I experimented with the mount/unmount-option in the settings. I have to confess I usually take out the card without un-mounting it first. Now I did it properly and voila. It works.

Another thing is that all my backupped apps (via Titanium) refer to storage/external_SD, since this was the way it was called on my previous phone (LG G2). But in the Note 4 the storage-place is called storage/extSdCard.

A number of my apps can´t find the new place. Of course I could just go into their settings and change the sd-card reference. But is there a way to rename the sd-card folder from extSdCard to external_SD? Root Explorer doesn´t let me.

---------- Post added at 09:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM ----------

Thanks Kadiremrah for the platform.xml printout. As suspected, it´s the same as on my device. The problem seems to have to do with the sd-card itself - not the software.
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] Parinibbana:
Just to keep you guys updated.

In fact, the mount/unmount didn´t turn out to help much after all.

But using another sd-card solved the problem.
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] dr.ketan:
Expected. I have very first told you to try another SD card as ROM already prefixed for this.

I cant get this to work? im rooted, downloaded the apk, installs fine. but when i click it nothing happens. just grayed out for 2 secs and then nothing. waiting for supersu to ask for permission. but no such luck?

got a SM-N910F
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] dr.ketan:
Check supersu app log. If it was rejected then select to forget. Or Uninstall and reinstall app
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] buljo:
it actually took like 6minutes before the supersu asked for permission. trying to flash a new stock rom now. phone was acting up lately.. will give this a go with a fresh install and report back.

thanks..
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] Beastn:
You don't need to be rooted in order to write to the external SD. Most apps create a folder in external_sdAndroid/data/ whatever the app is that's writable.
[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] buljo:
Forgot to report back. Did a clean install and this worked beautifully.. Now titanium can write to the SD card. (problem was that xposed and s health was not friends.)

I have a 5 day old Xperia Z3, purchased on three UK on contract.... the other day I noticed the button didn;t feel right, in that I have to really press hard to make it switch screen off/on.

If I listen closely I can hear some squeaky noises from there.

any advice? Sony said they can send it off for repair, but I feel a handset less than a week old should be replaced for a new one?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_u_n:
I am creating this thread after exploring the options documented in other similar threads, where I have posted the same issue.

My original battery was weak and I got a new one for my Defy green lens.

I saw that the phone stays at 1% for a long time and then tried several of the tools which remove the battery stats and claim to re-calibrate the battery.

After several such cycles of full 100% charge and discharge till power-off, the phone's standby time has exceeded 2.5 days - out of which it remains at 1% for almost one full day.

Note: I am running Quarx's 4.4.4 nightly.

What are the other things I can try? The phone is used only as standby so I don't mind wiping it off completely and putting stock ROM and observe again.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v2dare:
Dont worry . this happens to me also.. im too bought a battery of 600rs from ebay and battery stays 1 % for a day...

For an investigation i checked the battery voltage (at 100% charge voltage will be 4.2) when it drops to 1%, its nearly 3.9 and phone will keep working till voltage reduces to 3.5... im getting 2 days minimum backup of moderate use...

now to explain why 1% , this is an answer i gt from FB group .. "dnt expect Original battery at 600rs wen its actually cost 1200rs, they are actually replica of real and the so battery circuit send false info to phone, and phone calculates percentage remaining on this "

i tried to switch some cm7 version but in all battery drop at 1% happens.... so i ignored it and my defy still rocks in daily usage after 3 years ...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_u_n:
I find it odd that this is not an original battery.

The battery charge is pretty good - more than 50 hours - no usage of the phone - but poor 2G connection/ weak signal.

I can contact the ebay vendor if that is the case, but I need to be sure first.

I have now put my original battery and I will see if it drains off in the same way or not.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v2dare:
i just said they arent original motorola one but a replica of original... how much u paid ?

u can find 600rs and 1200rs both on ebay ....
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_u_n:
I paid Rs. 600.

I put my original battery (3 year old) and that does not show the 1% issue, though the battery life is less than 2 days on it in standby mode.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v2dare:
so are u gonna report the same to ebay seller and ask a refund? ;)

So I can't find this answered in anywhere else, and decided to come here.

I have a SM-P600 Rooted with TWRP Recovery, Permissive Kernel, Busybox, SuperSU and terminal(not that it matters).

And a 32GB Class10 MicroSD card.

I went to follow this guide.

My configurations are as follows:

a. Distribution - Ubuntu

b. Distribution suite - P

c. Architeture - armhf

d.	Mirror URL - http://18.7.29.125/ubuntu-ports/

e.	Installation type - File

f.	Installation path - /storage/emulated/0/ubuntudg.img

g.	Image size - Automatic calculation

h.	File system - Auto

i.	User name - android

j.	DNS server - Automatic detection

k.	Localization - en_US.UTF-8

l.	Desktop environment - Gnome

m. Select components - all

n. SSH STARTUP - checked

o. GUI STARTUP - checked

p. Graphic subsystem - VNC

q. GUI settings:

- Display - 0,

- Depth - 24,

- DPI - 270,

- Width - 2560,

- Height - 1600

r. Custom mounts - check

s. Mount points - /mnt/extSdCard/VMs [or /mnt/extSdCard/ ; /mnt/0/ and /mnt/emulated/ also give an error]

After the Deploy options have been set, I push the Stop Button, and then Start Button.

And it gives me the following:

>>> beguin: start
Mounting partitions:
/ ... fail
<<< end: start

I've cleared data and cache and re-installed the app, there is no change the error remains.

I can't continue without it mounting the partition. Any tips/Ideas/Help with this?

Experiencing same issue in Galaxy S5 g900r4 (US Cellular varient). I'm going to take a wild guess and say the mount parameters are outdated and incorrect. I'll take a look and see if I can figure it out, however, (contrary to my senior title) I am no Linux expert. It would be much better if a developer or equally experienced member looked at the configuration script.

Hi chaps,

Excuse what might seem like a stupid question from a newbie...but....got my new Orbit a couple of days ago....and straight away, the problems came in thick and fast!!

Has anyone successfully set one of these things up to Activesync via bluetooth??? Mine is stubbornly refusing to do so...:mad: :mad:

Also...my FM radio plays nothing but Simon and Garfunkel, since all I get is "The sound of Silence" :p Nothing....zip...zero is being played

It spat on my TomTom's auto install, until I handraulically installed the cabs, must say, this sat nav is head and shoulders above the same software on my old XDA II, using a wired GPS Antenna...nice

Anybody any ideas (I spent 2hrs on the phone with O2 about the bluetooth this week, and they just put their hands up in the air!!)

Nice site btw

Bluetooth Activesync works ok using the Microsoft XP SP2 stack instead of Widcomm or Toshiba:-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=288761

I tried and failed with Widcomm, but got it working 1st time once I used the MS stack.

Had the same problem with Tomtom. For me it was because my version of tt (5) was for an older version of WM. Installer didn't work, but manually dragged cabs were fine. I suspect tt6 installs fine.

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] rthomas:
Mine is WIDCOMM, how to I get it to run the MS stack?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] rhedgehog:
works fine with Toshiba, and the older versions of widcomm.

Toshiba stack always has an incoming port on com 7

set this and it will work fine (make sure you have the latest version of the stack from http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/pages/download.php)

Not tried with the latest versions cos my MIS key runs bluesoleil :-(

Try this

open my bluetooth places.

click bluetooth at the top of the windows (next to file, edit etc.)

click advanced configuration

click local services

note the port associated with the bluetooth serial port service.

open activesync on the pc

click file

click connection settings

set the com port here. (it must be lower than 20 for activesync 4.x)

click ok

open activesync on the device

tap menu

tap connect via bluetooth

tap yes when it asks about creating a pairing.

tap new device (if your device is already there, delete it. not totally necessary, but cleaner)

select your device and tap next

enter passkey

tap next

once it scans for services on the computer, it should find activesync.

tick it and tap finish

in activesync, tap menu

tap connect via bluetooth

should be gravy!

Glad to help out and do my part. Thanks to all those contributing also I think we are on to something. Been such a busy few days.

Also I can do testing with the recovery and see how it works once we get more of a finished product for the T330nu variant. Having some people willing to test these new recoveries for spotting any bugs/conflicts/performance issues should speed things along. As I said I am up for giving it a go it will be great to see some download links for the new recoveries ?

Then I can finally start making my first ever Rom to post on XDA and it will be for this device I am very excited. Been learning deodexing/zipalighn/etc.
