[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattyDip:
Hello to everyone,

In the past years I always rooted my phone to have a complete backup solution on my phones (Titanium Backup).

When I bought my last phone (Galaxy S6) I decided for the first time to try something different without rooting my phone in order to keep my warranty, automatic OTA updates, and other advantages like Samsung Pay.

The decision wasn't too bad because with PlayGames, manual OneDrive sync of some key backup directories trought FolderSync and especially thanks to Carbon Backup which works in fact more or less like Titanium Backup but without root, I keeped all my app's and games data saved...

But now there is a new problem...

Carbon isn't working with Marshmallow and PlayGames doesn't backup data of a significant number of games. The new backup solution of Android 6.0 seems very nice but if I unterstood right it works only with apps (only few are supported now) and not with games which is the biggest problem for me.

Is it possibile that in 2016 we can't get a complete and working backup solution to restore all data of our apps and games on Android?

Thanks,
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxM4tzexX:
As you said, this backup feature of MM only works for a small amount of apps because only a few are updated to/support this feature.

What do you mean by carbon isn't working with MM?

Till now there is no way to make a complete backup of every app without root (correct me if I'm wrong).
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattyDip:
With Helium Backup (Carbon) on Android Lollipop it is possible to backup app and games data without root.

Introduction:

For users handling with money transactions online (online shopping, bank transfers, mobile recharge/top-up), it can become cumbersome to deal with One Time Password (OTP) based authentications. The user has to switch to the messaging app, open the appropriate SMS and memorize/copy the OTP every time. With QuickOTP, you can bypass this process. QuickOTP displays the OTP in a lucid and non-intrusive manner along with an option to quickly copy the OTP as soon as you receive your OTP message. The user does not have to switch apps during the transaction.

This app is useful in the following cases:

Two-factor authentication based login.

Internet banking transactions.

Credit/Debit card transactions.

I'm upgrading my Advantage to a 4GB Mini SDHC card from a 2GB MiniSD card. I'd like to format both cards so that each is "fresh". Is it possible to do this in the Advantage, or do these cards need to be formatted from the PC?

Thanks,

Ron
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
don't format with the PC. Use pocket mechanics professional or sktools.

For the mini, make sure your setting is

- do not backup FAT table

- cluster size set at 32k

- Fat 16

For miniSDHC, make sure the option is

- do not backup FAT table

- cluster size set at 32k

- Fat 32

That will give you the best read/write performance.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Rambler358:
Thanks for the info. But I need to purchase another utility to be able to do this? :confused: I've already purchased MemMaid which I like a lot, but there doesn't seem to be any card formatting options. Or is it that Mini SD cards don't really *require* formatting?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
have you tried the trial version of sktools?

When the card is first delivered to you, they're already formatted. However, once in a while they get corrupted. That's when you may need to do this again. If you find the system freeze constantly or if you have missing files, chances are you have a lost clustered or chains. Sometimes I can recover them with pocket mechanics professional. At other times I prefer to start clean again by reformatting, just like we sometimes do with the microdrive.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Rick76:
I am interested to know why you do not recommend formatting with the PC. And, why the difference in File Allocation Tables between the 2 cards?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
The last time I formatted with PC, my system kept hanging and the SKtool performance test rating plummetted to as low as 20 kb/s.

One of the key differences between normal SD(including miniSD and microSD) and SDHC (including miniSDHC and microSDHC) is the FAT thingy. It's just the way things work.

Sorry about the title i was confused on what to put

So my tablet is rooted and i have modified some files on an app which you have to be rooted to modify. All i want to know is if it is possible to transfer the app onto my phone which is not rooted. i was thinking maybe there is a way to make the app back into an apk with the modified files buy im confused on how i would do that.

Don't mean to bring this old thread up but I figured its better than starting a new one.

No matter what I do, I cannot get back into snapchat..... any help is appreciated.

What I have done:

1. I accidentally logged out(wiped data files in settings) and then the trouble started

2. Flashed the uninstaller zip from recovery - try to log in to snapchat with no framework-doesn't work

3. updated to newest version of snapchat and still no luck (was running newest version usable with snapprefs

4. Rebooted and tried everything. My phone wont accept any log in info and just says the classic error message having trouble logging in...

ONLY THING THAT WORKED - using recovery I completely wiped my phones settings setting back to factory. Reinstalled older version of snapchat, then logged in, then installed the framework...

REALLY DON'T WANT TO WIPE ALL MY USER DATA AGAIN.

Any other way to get back into my snapchat??!!

even flashing system.img in fastboot did not work. Trying to log into snapchat (not newest version) getting the same error.... really don't want to wipe all my user data again this is really annoying. Any other suggestions? As far as I am aware I am fully unrooted at this point?

Fixed it. In SU when hitting 'full unroot' I was saying yes to attempting to restore system.img when I should have said no..... mybad. lol

Nevermind then. If it was systemless root just delete su.img in /data/ flash a stock boot.img and uninstall the app, should do it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennardude:
Hi, I really like to listen to radio (FM) and since I have a Bluetooth headphone I can't listen to FM because it needs a wire to act as an antenna. So I was wondering if there is a way to connect my crappy earphones to act as an antenna to the start FM player and direct the audio to my Bluetooth headphone.

I haven't found out if this is possible and I also can't find anything about in on Google, so I really hope you guys know something to let this work.

Thanks in advance!

[General Questions and Answers] Civicdohcsi:
Question... can anyone explain why my phone is running off H+ when off wifi, but 3G when wifi is enabled? Not sure if this is relevant, but I can't seem to send pictures without someone having to send me one first, and even then they come in a group message (the option to turn off group messaging in the MMS settings is turned off). Just wondering if anyone can make sense of this lol. I'd upload pictures but I'm not sure how, lol.

Hi guys I've a Chinese unbranded android car 2 din unit. It's stuck on boot loader I've watched countless yt videos and I've searched this and other forums for tips but came up with nothing. I've tried a hard reset and tried factory reset and its still stuck on the boot. In the sd card there is no back up or update or upgrade rom or firmware and I know I need it to recover from sd but how do I find one that is compatible with my unit if I don't know the model number or even manufacturer name? It's not printed on the radio and the box was plain. It was a gift from my ex gf almost 2 years ago please can u guys help me out? I've also unplugged it from the car for an hour put it back in.

Some apps/games such as Dominations, Star Wars Commander or Walking Dead don't support the S Pen/stylus. Is there a way to force an app to accept stylus input rather than a finger? I thought the point of the stylus was simply to trick the phone into thinking it's your finger.

Blast from the past post LOL....yea, such a silly limitation of an otherwise wonderful phone series.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emandt:
It's not a Samsung limit but an App Development limit. If the author doesn't take in count any input other than FINGER, then POINTER and STYLUS could not work as expected or, the worst case, doesn't work at all.

Usually this happens when a developer creates its own "interface" from scratch without using normal Android components or when he wants to change normal component behavior. When it happens the developer usually override normal "onTouch()" or "onGenericMotion()" events and he just check for normal Input types and doesn't take in count the others.

I bought this amazon.com/gp/product/B00MDXWEWE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s0

So allnwemt good, except BT hands free mic does not work. I can find no software settings for this, though the sparse marketing states thereebis aninternal mic, it doesn't work.

So I bought an external mic, and lownand behold, there is no external mic jack. The schematics show there is supposed to be 6 wires out the back (USB... Rear audio and external mic) but there is only three...two RCA and USB.

Anyone got any ideas? I saw a post regarding jacking the PCB board, but no solid directions a noob could follow.

Any pointers or hints would be great.

Thank you!!!!

Hi All,

This is the first time I have posted. I love the site, it has more information then I could ever use.

The reason I am posting is to ask if anyone knows how to display email subjects on the today screen instead of the number of unread messages.

I know it is possible because I saw someone post a screenshot with it displaying the messages. I can't for the life of me find that screenshot again or I would have just asked the person directly. I believe it was under the Hermes topic but it could have been under wizard because I have been working on a co-workers phone also. I have been searching for this for the last two days and haven't been able to find it. I hope someone can help. The only clue I have is above the email subjects it said Activesync. Thanks in advance.

I have an 8525 with WM6 HTC Kasier Home 6 Tab Schen version. I would be willing to switch to whatever will provide the email subjects.

[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp201:
I received my amazon7 5gen tablet on 5.1.1. I rooted it and used flashfire.27 to install slimlp5.1.1 on it. I backed up slimlp like I did my orginal firerom with flashfire.27 and installed cm12(5.1.1) I did a wipe, cm12.zip and picogapps.zip and slid the wipe to the top of the list. All went well except I now have no root access. after installing Flashfire it is asking for root I tried installing SuperSu from the appstore but it woud not work using the "normal" way. twrp is not installed so that is not an option? was I supposed to flash supersu.zip during install?

thanks in advance.

edit: never mind I found enable root access in developer options.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] percussionking:
Been there. Super Tool can help you root the device as if you had the stock ROM. If you run into any issues, run the batch commands by hand. In general it looks like this:

Use fastboot commands to temporarily unlock the kernel

Remount the system partion as read/write

Copy over the 5 files required for root

Allow execute privs and run root_fire.sh

After you have root, you can use FlashFire for other zip flashing such as Xposed or other ROMs.

Worst case scenario: sideload the 5.1.1 stock FW and start from scratch, remembering to flash CM+GApps+SU this time ;) Good luck!
