[Sony Smartwatch 3] MacSeoin:

[Sony Smartwatch 3] crunchybutternut:
Just go through this process..

Plug the SWR50 into the computer (be sure ADB Debugging is turned on), and type this in CMD:

adb reboot bootloader

The watch will reboot into Fastboot mode.

Then type this (yes, twice):

fastboot oem unlock
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot reboot

Now your bootloader is unlocked.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] daveyp187:
Ok, been playing around, seems my issue was windows 10 fastboot drivers. Android SDK and device manager sorted this, I didn't need to unlock the bootloader in the end, I just fastboot then hotboot recovery and push SuperSU and then flash it from recovery. Now rooted
[Sony Smartwatch 3] lohtse:
Tried this but always says <waiting for device>
[Sony Smartwatch 3] lekofraggle:
You need to update your driver. Fastboot, stock recovery, twrp, and the running system all have slightly different drivers. Most packages include all the drivers, but some do not. It is notoriously annoying to get all the pieces to work right on Win 10.

hi, i've got the last android wear update,and i'm trying to root the smartwatch with the windroid toolkit...but when i try to unlock the bootloader or flashing twrp recovey,the watch reboot in fastboot mode,and it gets stucked in it,doin' nothing...when i try to root the device,it goes in recovery mode,but there isn't any file to install,as suggested from the step to step guide of the windows program. i'm running windows 10..any suggestion on how to fix the problem..?

I have a LG g3 that im going to use on straight talk, i looked at the bands and it looked like i would be able to get LTE but i seem to only b getting H+. What would i be missing? also is there a way to remove the "Not verizon sim" icon up by the signal bars?

1. Can you install 2-4 gb size apps on this phone, for example games?

2. Is not having a proximity sensor a big situation? the screen doesnt shut off?

Thanks for help!
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 4] MechAxe:
About the G357FZ model:

You could install <2GB but you wouldn't be able to install much else. Low internal memory. You can't install 4GB games AFAIK.

The proximity sensor is annoying but it wasn't a big turn off for me but there are some issues with it turning on in your pocket. I would advice against buying it if you haven't bought it already. Unless you're dead set on a Super AMOLED screen since this is about the cheapest good Super AMOLED device right now. Buy a Moto G or something instead.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 4] broucker:
It doesn't have a proximity sensor! And you can install bigger apps if you root and remove bloatware
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blksith0:
I have 8gb free space internally, and the NANDroid backup is 5gb. When trying to restore using CWM, it will get about halfway and then abruptly stop and go to the main menu. I don't think it's actually completing the restore because the OS is heavily bugged when booting at this point.

The log file says

I:Checking for extendedcommand & OpenRecoveryScript...
I:Skipping execution of extendedcommand, file not found...
I:Skipping execution of OpenRecoveryScript, file not found...

Here's the full log.

http://pastebin.com/R8hAq3Jq

I really can't tell where the Nandroid recovery begins from that log, but hopefully some of you can shed some light on this situation.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blksith0:
In fact that log files seems to completely omit a lot of the log files lines that I see when using the actual recovery. So I'm going to watch the screen very closely and try to see where the nandroid recovery fails.

Any ideas on how enter in this menu? ..done it in the past but it seems to fail doing this again:

To be fair I've done this in the past with CM11s now I'm on CM12, I'd like to find a way to reduce the initialization time(although in CM12 things are way better compared to cm11s. Cm11s vs my brothers Xiaomi Mi3 was well day vs night, mi3 was WAY faster, turning on wifi and boom ready to go - mine was turning on wifi wait a couple of seconds then another 2-3 and I'm good to go)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Dopamin3:
I have the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3. I was on stock and just took the OTA upgrade to Lollipop (N900TUVUFOB6). After doing this, I rooted the phone with CF Auto Root and installed TWRP 2.8.5.0. I have root access fine. I keep my apps backed up from Titanium Backup on my SD card. When I open up Titanium Backup it tells me the directory isn't writable. I am on the latest su binary / supersu and I have tried changing the mount namespace setting with no luck. Is there anything else I could try to fix it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JimSmith94:
Did you install the SD card fix app?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Androidnewuser1:
I think there is an option on lollipop to authorize other apps to access directories that are not there own. That might be the problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sjancura:
I searched and found you need to change a setting in Preferences - Backup folder location. Near the top is Storage Provider. Click and change to Directory provider. Fixed it for me. Never knew that was a setting before!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Dopamin3:
Thanks so much! I had to pick the option DocumentProvider storage and then select the directory through there. Working fine now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sjancura:
Sorry. Meant Document provider not Directory provider. ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] MadJoe:
Has anyone found a reason why TiBu now thinks the entire directory of dalvik cache is unnecessary when you run the clean up option?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] S2 user:
Changing that to DocumentProvider storage solved my problem too sjancura, thanks! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] S2 user:
Hi,

I spoke too soon... I am still having problem with using external SD card with titanium backup.

I changed the storage provider to DocumentProvider but I cannot 'save' that selection as it's grayed out - please see the screenshot.

I have tried changing name of ex SD card. At first I used SDFix apps which were able to help with similar problem in KitKat but haven't fixed the issue now in lollipop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dajomas:
I had the same problem (Running Lollipop and TB) and I got it fixed by using one of the KitKat fixes. The one I used was "SDFix" by "NextApp, Inc." in the google play store.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] The Grand Pooh-Bah:
Thanks...that worked for me too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tattoo_gaz:
Hours of frustration brought to an end by that advice ... thanks mate ... you're a legend!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mediatech1:
Hi,

I tried running SDFix, having run it in tbe past, prior to finding out this morsel of info on changing DP. However I still can't get it to save that location. Same greyed out directory like previous user posted.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mediatech1:
Yeah I found that as well, changed it but could not "save" to that folder location (greyed out). Tried SDFix app, no change. Tried creating a new folder in TB, AND then using ESFile Explorer & neither would allow me to write to the extSD card. Rooted, stock Sprint Lollipop ROM. :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Ghosthree3:
I had that issue, worked it out. When you're browsing for a folder with the DocumentProvider select the root of the SD card, then it should close and return to the browser in Titanium Backup. Browse to the sub folder you want, you should be able to click the save button now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mediatech1:
Hi Ghosthree3,

Thanks so much for this. I'm going to give it a shot. My extSD card was used in the past on an earlier version of Android OS, whereby I could write to the extSD card just fine. Consequently there are prior backups on there. As such, I'm wondering if i should mount the phone, copy that folder off, delete that folder on the extSD card and then via TB create a "new" Titanium Backup folder and see if it then allows me to write. Note: I tried mounting the phone to my PC in an effort to create a folder on the extSD card and that method too, prevented me from creating a folder, hence my thought on getting what I have off of the device, and attempting writing a new folder per your directions. I wonder if my PC will allow me to erase that folder.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] manhar2108:
Install xposed and then use xinternalsd then configure it as u wish. This will fix the problem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Laczyi:
Thank you!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mediatech1:
Hi s j a n cu r a,

Thank you very much. Someone else posted that, but maybe i'm not selecting it properly. When I select Document Provider, I browse to "Open from SD card", scroll down to the "Titanium Backup" folder, hit "Select" the "Titanium Backups" that are there [at one time I had no issues writing to my EXT SD card], it then says, "Detect!" [External storage] and I select "Everywhere in External Storage". It finds 41 backups there, I select that "External Storage' radio button. That's where I seem to hit a wall. The "Use the current folder" appears to be greyed out. I'm left only with "Cancel". I think there is some deeper issue writing to ExtSD because with File Explorer I can't copy picture files from one folder to the other. That's what is giving me this feeling that something else is going on with write permission. Frustrating to say the least. My only recourse at this point is to use the internal SD, which does work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pyraxiate:
Google lollipop external sdcard fix. There's an app in the play store.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mediatech1:
Interestingly enough, I've installed and run the NextApp SDFix app and still no luck with my external SD card writing. Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Arturiano:
Not for me: now TB hungs and restart as soon as I choose a backup folder (internal or external)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Wilsonb:
Frustrating... had to do the same.. and finally figured it out using Directory provider
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DrPhant0m:
I'm posting to ask a question... but I might also be able to help, as well...

First of all... I had the same problem as the OP when I moved to Marshmallow. I had to create a folder on my extSD card as per this portion from the TB FAQ:

After that... it worked for me.

However, the question I had is this... I've done some research on this topic and the fact that apps can only create data in folders that match their package ID... and there is talk that the files in the folder will be deleted upon uninstalling the app. Is this true? I don't want all of my TB backups to be *poof-gone* if I uninstall TB.

I submitted a query with TB, but I wanted to get this out there for the masses to consider as well. Best of luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] xlxcrossing:
This was the solution for me to not have the button greyed out

"When you're browsing for a folder with the DocumentProvider select the root of the SD card, then it should close and return to the browser in Titanium Backup. Browse to the sub folder you want, you should be able to click the save button now."

Excellent mate!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sjamie:
This worked for me too (Marshmallow). Thank you! :highfive:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] maanski3:
I am currently using the latest Resurrection Remix ROM and have tried the NextApp SD Fix and it didn't work. I even tried to change to Document Provider in the Preferences in TB but everytime I try to change it it force closes the app. I am rooted and xposed moduls for sd card fix didn't help either. I have ran out of ideas to try. :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Minicuxn:
same here
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ritzusan:
I had the same issue and SDFix didn't worked for me. But after writing something with "Root Browser" the SD card started to work with TB... Please note that I used the path /mnt/extSdCard
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Yokurt815:
Selecting the root folder of the external SD card as DocumentProvider worked for me with Lollipop (5.1.1)

But I was not able to move the existing backup. My solution was to delete it and make a new backup on ext SD

Thanks for the tip, I would never have searched the ext SD as DocumentProvider.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Aminewolf:
this solution helps restoring from a folder stored in SD card, but the problem remains that you cannot BACKUP to that same folder , says " .... is in not writable state "

have you managed to fix that ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Axelman8:
titanium Backup problem fixed on Android 5.1

Hey there,

I just tried to fix this and has succes.

This is the procedure i used on android 5.1

(TB = Titanium Backup)

Select in TB:

* Menu,

* Settings,

* Backup location,

* Backup provider (select to change),

* Document provider (select external SD Root, not a folder of subfolder in the root)

This is because at first the backup location was: MNT\EXTSD\TBBackup, (TBBackup is my foldername, could be diffrent than yours). TB will ask you to select a subfolder from the root location. i selected my origional backup folder.

Now TB wil create \[external storage]/TBBackup. TB will ask you to move the existing backups to the new location. I selected [Yes].

Done....

Regards

Axelman

I did exactly you say and I was able to choose backup folder on SD Card. But after I restarted the device, and reopened Titanium Backup, it crashed on startup.

I tried this but it doesn't let me select my TV backup folder and if I hit the tag it says it doesn't find anything Uno exact copy is right there
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] RazzMcTazz:
I had this problem on my Sprint Galaxy S5. I solved it like this...

1) Do a Titanium backup to your internal memory (not the SD card).

2) Copy that TitaniumBackup folder to your PC.

3) Copy that TitaniumBackup folder from your PC to your SD card. (For some reason it failed whenever I tried copying directly from the internal storage to the SD card, so I had to take it to the PC first.)

4) From Titanium Backup, go to Menu --> Preferences --> Backup Folder Location and clicked on the line "Storage provider..." and select "Filesystem storage". Then search for it on your SD card (automatically or manually) and select the "TitaniumBackup".

5) Select "Use the current folder".
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DroidSaroj:
You were so presice.

You gave so precise idea that worked eo well, thankyou so much
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] fizzingbees:
You are selecting titanium backup folder in your external sd card directly.

In document provider select root external sd card as your storage and in next step select the titanium backup folder. It wouldn't be grayed out then

[Sony Xperia M] ldAbl:
So I was running the Unofficial Xperia Rom (4.4) and then decided to upgrade to CM12.

Upon booting up into CM12, I realised it wasn't as smooth as Kitkat, so I wanted to go back via restoring my nandroid backup. However, when I rebooted into Recovery, CWM is gone, and has been replaced by Cyanogenmod Recovery.

Due to the uselessness of CM Recovery, I can't flash CWM via this method and this gives me an error.

How do I install CWM recovery, given these methods don't work for me?
[Sony Xperia M] metalftw7:
How about this one install it using terminal emulator

extract FOTA img to the root of your external sd card then type su on the terminal emulator then type this code

dd if=/ext_card/FOTAKernel.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel

This one's permanent so even if you update your rom. CWM won't be replaced by any other recovery.

She said 3-7 Business days and while up-happy about it I said ok. She then goes on to say "Well if you don't want to wait I can ship you a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition". Ummmmmm no? Why on earth would I agree to that?? The sad part is some un-educated maybe older person might of said yes not knowing they were excepting something of $200 less in value.
