[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] my1stSmartPhone:
I've been googling around for the file structure for my Moto G without success. I suspect that vendors might change things around from the top-level template shown at http://sites.google.com/site/tomsgt123/adb-fastboot/understanding-android but I was hoping to find somewhere a mapping between the above (well explained!) folders versus where they are located on the Moto G.

Here are the differences that I found:

* /boot: Doesn't exist.

- There are deep subfolders named "boot", maybe unrelated:

* /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot symbolically

linnked to /dev/block/mmcblk0p31

* /sys/kernel/boot_adsp/boot

* /sys/kernel/debug/tzdbg/boot

- The target of the link (1st occurance above) lists with a "b"

flag, which I've not seen before:

brw------- root root 179, 31 1970-01-08 22:26 mmcblk0p31

* /system exists, and I can list its contents

* /recovery doesn't exist, but the following does:

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery symbolically linked

to /dev/block/mmcblk0p32

- The target of the link lists as:

brw------- root root 259, 0 1970-01-08 22:26 mmcblk0p32

* /data exists, but I don't have read permission. It lists as:

drwxrwx--x system system 2014-12-31 21:03 data/

- I guess this means I'm the 3 last permission flags ("Other")

- In windows, "system" means not associated with any account

* /cache exists, but I don't have read permission. It lists as:

drwxrwx--- system cache 2014-12-30 13:30 cache/

* /misc doesn't, but the following does:

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc symbolically linked to

/dev/block/mmcblk0p30

- The target of the link lists as:

brw------- root root 179, 30 1970-01-08 22:26 mmcblk0p30

Here are some details from the phone:

* Android 4.4.4

* Kernel version 3.4.42-g67b2f25

* System version 210.12.50.falcon_umts.Telus.en.CA

* Build number KXB21.14-L1.50

Thanks for pointing me to any pages that explain how Moto G realizes the partitions that are so well described in the above URL. Any pointers to pages that elaborate on the file structure/organization would also be appreciated.

Note that "adb shell mount" shows how /system, /data, and /cached are mapped:

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system ext4

ro,seclabel,relatime,data=ordered 0 0

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata /data f2fs

rw,seclabel,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,background_gc=on,discard,user_xattr,inline_xattr,acl,errors=recover,active_logs=6

0 0

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache /cache ext4

rw,seclabel,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,data=ordered 0 0

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TheGamingKiwi:
Hi Everyone,

I found out a way to sideload apps on Nook Tablet running 1.4.3! This is not a scam or whatever, it actually works. I will walk you through the steps.

Step 1: Search crunchyroll.com. (All this is done on the Nook, not on PC). It is the first link, click on it

Step 2: Click on the picture/ link Get it on Google play

Step 3: You will be asked to set up or login with a google play account (gmail account). One you have done this and agreed to everything, you will be on the crunchyroll app page.

Step 4: In the top right corner click the search icon and search nt hidden settings. It will be the first app on the list that shows up. Click on it and download it.

Step 5: Once it has been download and installed, click on the nook home button and hit search, and search nt hidden settings. Click on the app then once it has been opened click Hacks. If you are asked to give permission to allow something, click allow.

Step 6: When you are in the Hack settings, click on Unknown Sources Hack. Something should then pop up which says something like NT Hidden Settings has been granted superuser permissions.

Now you are done! I would recommend downloading ES File Explorer, then download the Google Play Store Apk and then go into File Explorer, and find where you downloaded it to. Then click on it, click install and choose the option verify and install. Once it has been installed you will then not need to use crunchyrolls.com to access the play store. Remember, you can only open apps by searching for them they will not show up in apps. To get around this get an app called Honeycomb Launcher.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

This is amazing. I can't thank you enough. I've been flashing JellyBean from my sd card, but it can be so unstable and freezes. This is awesome.
[General Questions and Answers] Jakvett:
I've been setting up voice commands recently for use in my car. I have an HTC One M8, but I don't think my issue is device specific (this isn't really an issue per say, but a tweak that I think should be possible).

What currently happens is my phone connects to the stereo using A2DP bluetooth. It plays music and takes phone calls as it should. When I initiate a voice command, the music is paused, the stereo displays "voice ctrl", and the command is heard through the stereo microphone. The issue with this, is the stereo does not return to playing music after the command. I have to press the call button on the stereo to return to the music.

What I would like to have happen is when a voice command is initiated, the media volume is reduced (using Tasker), and the phone microphone is used without triggering the stereo.

I've searched a fair amount, but haven't found any solution for defaulting to the phone mic when bluetooth is connected. I'm convinced there has to be a way to do it, what am I missing?
[General Questions and Answers] SinkRate:
Solved it once

I have a Htc Desire 600, and my way of solving it is at the call menu there are small icons while on call, there's a bluetooh option, phone option and a handsfree option, i kept the phone option on default, hope that helps

Cheers!:)

Hi guys, I just wanted to let you know that I have managed to translate 99% of all the WM5 interface to English or almost any language. The secret has been found long time ago by our friend Asukal: http://asukal.net/blog/

Some things like the battery panel, the soft keys on the Communication Manager are missing and others are not translated, maybe somebody can tell us how can we complete this work on the Athena.

Instructions:

1) Install ENG_mui.cab or any other desired language. Don't install ENG_Notifi_COM_BT or any other since they will change some settings.

2) Now you will notice that the Start Menu doesn't exist anymore! So go with the help of your keyboard to the File Explorer, go to /Windows and look for the folder on the Old Language that contains the Start Menu Folder, now rename it to: Start Menu. Then inside rename the folder that contains the Links to your programs to Programs and Create or Rename a Folder called Settings. All of them should be inside /Windows/Start Menu

The original work was made by our friend Asukal. Thank you very much for your hard work! And you can view the original post for the HTC Universal and the Languages Pack at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=267541&page=2

you can download all the CAB's that Asukal made with a lot of different languages (some of them are not finisihed) at: http://buzzdev.net/components/com_s...les/UI_LNG_SWT_beta_20060629193323_Asukal.rar

Feel free to ask me any question, I will try to do my best!

I will try to post some screen shots later...

Camera stopped working

The tweak works nice but camera application could not start. Will check further later. Meanwhile I have restored backup:cool:
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] bogusiano:
I solved this by replacing /Windows/Camera.exe with one of the Camera.exe.* which size is 404 KBytes. Sorry but I can't remember the exact name.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] faisal.husain:
where did you get the camera files from?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] bogusiano:
I got them from my /Windows directory they have been renamed by Asukal's translator. They have the extension: *.0404.mui

So the original file of Camera.exe (the one in Chinnese) has been renamed to Camera.exe.0404.mui, so once Asukal's CAB has been installed, rename Camera.exed to Camera.exe.old and rename Camera.exe.0404.mui to Camera.exe

In fact once you rename the working Camera.exe you will find a different Icon, like more "fashion". Hahaha!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] victoradjei:
Camera working now

I have the camera working now :p

I followed the instructions above, but before the procedure I created a folder on the storage card and copied all the file in the windows folder named camera for preservation ;)

NB: I INSTALLED THE TWO CABS TO THE STORAGE CARD

ALL COPYING AND RE-NAMING WAS DONE WITH TOTAL COMMANDER

1. Ran the Language switcher cab and do a soft re-set.

2. May not be needed, but I started the switcher application and changed the language to English. Nothing changed of course :eek:

3. Installed the English mui and clicked ok for reset.

4. Copied all the camera files (4 of them, counting in Camera.exe.0413) to the Windows folder of device

5. Copied all content of the Windows sub-folders Start Menu and Programs from the old language Dutch in my case, to the new English folders.

6. Did same as in 5. for all the folders I wanted to re-name which would not take the new name:cool:

7.Camera works as normal, but I did not see the Microdrive to select in the initial settings. I believe that can be sorted with reg-edit or something else, but that is not important for me at the moment. Have not tested the front camera etc. I need to go and have a meal.

Am continueing to re-name the folders and checking the functions as I go along. Happy tweaking to all of you! Many thanks to Bogusiano and Wu.

Cheers

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorio:
Alright so there's a new firmware from Moto that I'm trying to flash, specifically this one:

For whatever reason my ADB drivers don't detect the phone when I'm in recovery. I can't locate the drivers for the XT1095 device either whenever I try to do it manually. I have the Moto drivers installer which worked fine for when the device isn't in recovery, I just can't use it with ADB for whatever reason.

With ADB sideload no longer an option I figured why not flash it from the SD card. Well, I get an invalid signature error which won't flash the update either.

So now I'm in between a rock and a hard place. Can anyone help me get out, please & thanks?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobbs3x:
You can't flash that from sdcard, or the recovery. Boot into boot loader mode and flash it there from computer.

Oh yeah, enable developer mode inside android and enable USB debugging too.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] purejoy:
Yes, flash the firmware via RSD lite or fastboot utility.

HI, so I'm on MDK, rooted, and running GPE 5.0 LP, and I was recently attempt to update my recovery. I used Jrummy's ROM installer to install the TWRP 2.8.3. I rebooted, and now when i load into recovery, it says "kernel secure fail" and won't let me do anything. Is there a way to fix this? Any help would be appreciated.

Update: After attempting to reboot it a few times, I am able to boot to ROM, but still unable to boot to recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MehStrongBadMeh:
Boot to the ROM and install Flashify from the Google Play store. Use it to install the latest TWRP. That should clear everything up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] clarinetboy:
Hmm. Ok so I installed TWRP 2.8.3 via Flashify, and successfully rebooted to recovery. I then flashed JFLTE-GPE 5.0 (jan. 2nd version). Now can't boot to either recovery or ROM, both of which are saying "secure fail: kernel." I did not loki doki. Ahh help!

Update: After rebooting multiple times, I can now reboot to recovery, but not to ROM.

Update: I used the 12/24 loki doki and now it seems like the ROM is working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Andreuha:
I ran into a similar problem, and had to completely restore to stock via Odin.

What were your steps here? Also I had trouble getting loki to install, which steps did you use?

Do you guys prefer to insert your S Pen with the button facing up or down? I prefer to insert it with the button up to show off that shiny Samsung logo when I pull it out.

Which do you prefer and why?

Edit- Tapatalk sucks! It won't let me view the poll! To all those viewing this with Tapatalk this is supposed to be a poll, so if you get a chance log in from a PC and vote!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] BableMan:
If you put it button down the phone sensor wastes less power interacting with/detecting the pen. Little bit of extra juice is never a bad thing ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Android_Monsters:
From the back.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Face_Plant:
How so?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] arjun90:
Either way for me, its still stiff for me to insert in and pull out, I push it from the back and its always hard. I guess the orientation doesn't really matter. I don't think inserting in a particular way has an impact on the battery life unless someone cares to elaborate. I don't use the S-pen much, but if I do, I always have a spare one lying around.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pierrekid:
Oh do you? O_o
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Face_Plant:
I've noticed that my S Pen rattles more if I insert it with the button facing down. Yet another reason to put it in with the button up.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] arjun90:
Lol, ROFL, uh, it's just an S-Pen, is it not? :silly: :eek:

---------- Post added at 06:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Are you sure its not the Camera sensor? The S-Pen would only rattle if it was loose to insert and pull out from the beginning. The only to determine the integrity of your S-Pen is to insert and pull-out "slowly"
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Face_Plant:
Why would my camera be rattling? I can clearly see the S Pen moving around if I shake the phone or wiggle it with my finger.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] arjun90:
There's always a variation in how Samsung assembles their devices, its not precision cut. Your slot might just be slightly wider than the norm. As long as the S-Pen does not fall out, you should be fine.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] justibasa:
That's what she said. ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] arjun90:
As long as you don't push the S-Pen all the way in "hard," then you should be alright, its not like you're going to rupture the paint or something.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Temetka:
I never really pay attention to how I insert the pen. Never really thought about it until now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] paesan:
I like to change positions, this keeps things from getting boring. I would think over time the more the slot was used the looser it would get. Never really thought about this though, lol.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] arjun90:
Someone on another thread mentioned that applying lubriderm to the slot or s-pen should do the trick. My response was :confused: The S-Pen shouldn't be too wet or else the lubricant might fall all over in the S-Pen Slot. The Note 4 is not even Water-Resistant unless you liquipelled it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Stryke_the_Orc:
Well, as much fun as it was reading through the list of sexually charged innuendo responses, those kinds of replies are entirely unacceptable and not appropriate for a forum that is centered on mobile device development. Take the fun and games, and your lubricants, to your facebook or google+ pages.

[Moto 360] supremekizzle:
So when I have my watch and phone in priority only, I keep getting cards that pop up on my 360. They go away when I set my phone to silent, or, "none." Is there any way to make it so I can put my watch and phone in priority (so I still get alarms) but it won't show cards? I don't want to uncheck show cards in the wear app, because I'd have to re-enable it when turning the volume back up. I don't want cards showing on the face when at work. I want it to just be a watch that i can swipe up to see cards. But when I leave work and the volume is turned up (tasker triggered by location) the cards will display on watch. Thanks for any help!

Ver 5.0.1

Baseband MDM9625_104335.118.02.55.04R

Kernel 3.10.40

Build LRX22C

All stock

Received phone today, popped in SIM no issues at all.

Performed the following steps.

1-Decrypted phone (unlock bootloader)

2-Root

3-Flash TWRP

4-Flash lean kernel

After these steps no issue with data. Everything working.

5-Started installing apps/configuring phone. Restarted phone several times during this process. Noticed after restarts that LTE wouldn't come up. Toggled airplane mode to fix. Eventually no service after restarts.

Re-flashed stock image, no root, no custom recovery, stock kernel. No service at all. Confirmed that SIM still works in different device.

I am aware that some N6 custom ROMs have data issues with Verizon. I had not seen anything reported with the stock image.

Has anyone experienced this?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
