Read post above yours. I even quoted it here:

I'm not a ROM dev, so I can't help you. Plus I like TouchWiz. Learn and do it yourself :)

Shouldn't be a big problem if based on stock ROM :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Exynos)] MysteryIII:
Hello duki994,

right now I'm asking developers around if they are willing/capable of modifying kernel to get UMS mode for the S5.

First I asked GokulNC if it is possible to get UMS with his App USB MASS STORAGE Enabler for S5.

His answer was:

Next I asked boeffla if he might add it and got this response:

So next I'm asking you as kernel developer.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Exynos)] duki994:
Intersting thing those usb gadget drivers :)

I'll see what I can do. I have exam month now.

It seems that devs removed "removable" flag from sysfs LUN options. But code is still there in kernel. It should be matter of exposing it to sysfs and adapting/rewriting it not to crash Android ROM.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Exynos)] MysteryIII:
Thanks! Concentrate on your exams first, of course. I will patiently wait for when you have time. I also asked CrazyGamerGR (CrazySuperKernel developer) at the same time who wants to look into it. But you seem to be the first right on the spot.

I think it would be a great benefit getting UMS connections for the S5.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Exynos)] duki994:
Don't be too sure of kernel.

Userspace programmer could/will have much harder job with more code.

I'll see to remake and expose removable per-LUN controls.

But apps will have to use different design.

And it will be probably general solution. For all devices (kernels 3.4 - 3.18) :)

Hello there, having a prob finishing project. Root established w. nrt, busy box wont install....no room sys/xbin? what do I do?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] zandgreen:
Your system partition must have not enough free space. Consider making some free space there before installing busybox.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] lazuhrus:
Try disabling USB debugging, for some strange reason that sometimes works
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] larrywtate:
Thanks

I will try, like I said new to all this sys partition how do I find it, and how do I make space? Will try changing usb debugging also. Trying to learn.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] zandgreen:
In a terminal emulator do the following commands:

su

df /system

How much free space does it show?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] larrywtate:
reply

Says, df/system: not found

Tablet says lots of storage. one of the new programs I have said system full but other storage plenty.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] zandgreen:
You missed the space before the slash:

df /system

In any case you will need to remove some not needed apps from the system partition.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] larrywtate:
Ok, didn't even notice the space but why is my system suddenly completely full? looking on phone 11 gb free but looking at one of the root programs the file busy box needs to install to xbin says completely full. Although busy box says it is installed it says xbin no storage sys no storage room, very confusing for a noob.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Tmzdroid:
Try the Nexus Root Toolkit by Wugfresh, I know it's adb in a wrapper but it's very easy to use good luck.

Thats how I rooted, I did get it installed after clearing cache. Now I need to find a good kernel and rom to install. Any ideas? just want faster smoother. Not a rocket ship.

And thanks everyone for the help.
[MTCB Software Development] TT_Vert:
I do not have access to the USB ports to use a mouse so the TWRP I was using is out of the question. Maybe there is a CWM recovery that would work or a newer TWRP? My device has capacitve keys and a reset button only, no physical buttons. I want to be able to do what I do w/ my phone and backup my entire device, install different ROMS to test and revert to that backup easily/quickly.

Thanks

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] John256145:
I'm having trouble using ADB with my phone. It is a Galaxy J36, and is stuck in a bootloop. (yes I tried wiping the cache, didn't work :( ) Every tutorial online is telling me to use adb, so I downloaded the Samsung drivers to my computer. I already have the android sdk. When I plug my phone in to my computer, the command "adb devices" does not recognize my phone. It just shows "list of devices attatched" with nothing under it. I've tried entering odin mode, the system recovery menu, and the boot up screen, but I still get nothing. What do I do? Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: Forget ADB, odin saves the day! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BciQSJJsOVc
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonathanmoneill:
This might seem like a daft question but is there a way to set an external SD card as the default download location for content from specific apps? I'm thinking specifically of BBC iPlayer, all4 and the Google Play store.

I'm using a Kindle Fire 7 (5th gen)

Fire OS 5.1.2 (rooted) with Xposed Framework installed.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonathanmoneill:
On a related note is there any way I can find out the directory where my downloaded all4 videos are saved as default? It appears to be internal storage but when I look where I'd expect to find them (/0/android/data/com.cgannal4.ondemand/files) the folder is empty.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zerbey:
Not all Apps will install on the SD card by default, only ones which support it. The Google Play store is one example of an App that will not.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robo-rooter:
With my Fire 7 (5.1.2) rooted with RootJunky's SuperTool and the Nexus rom installed using FlashFire v.031, I then added the Link2sd app from the Google Play store to recover 3.5gb of internal storage, linking apps to the sd card.

To be on the safe side, I only linked apps to the sd card that I loaded and no Google or system apps that would affect the android system operation.

Link2sd is an app that links and moves most or all of an app to your sd card, but someway links it to the Fire 7 internal storage for the android system to run. Some custom roms allow you to just move and run the apps from the sd card. But with the Nexus rom, the app file is moved to the sd card, but run, maybe virtually from internal storage.

I have 150 apps installed on the Fire 7 with a Nexus rom. Before I loaded Link2sd, the Fire 7 had about 500mb internal storage free. After loading Link2sd and linking apps to my sd card, there is 3.5gb for free internal storage on the Fire 7.

In order for Link2sd to use the sd card you have to partition the sd card into Fat32 and ext4 partitions. The ext4 partition is used by Link2sd for app linking. The Fat32 partition is used in a normal manner for MP3, picture, video, e-book, etc storage.

I am using Linux Mint on my pc, so I used the linux program Gparted to partition a 32gb micro sd card for Link2sd to use. There are also free Windows programs that will allow you to do the same functions on your Windows 7 or 10 pc..

Link2sd uses a linux ext4 partition on the sd card to place and link apps to. The other half of the sd card is partitioned as a Fat32 format, for MP3, video, ebook, pictures storage.

Here is how to partition a 32gb micro sd card using the linux program Gparted. Use some type of micro sd adapter to connect the micro sd card to your linux pc. My Dell laptop has a built in sd slot, so it only needed and sd to micro sd adapter.

First delete the existing partition on the micro sd card. Then create a Fat32,. Primary partition, that takes 1/2 of the space on the micro sd card. Format the Fat32 partition as Fat32.

Next create a linux ext4, Primary partition, using the other 1/2 of the space on the micro sd card. Format the ext4 partition as ext4. The micro sd card is now ready for use by the Link2sd app.

Insert the micro SD card into the Fire 7 with a Nexus rom and Link2sd installed.

Start Link2sd and point it at the ext4 partition on the sd card when it asks and you are set to link apps to the sd card.

You can probably partition 64gb and 128gb sd cards in the same way, although I haven't tried. The Fire 7 is suppose to be able to accept up to a 128gb micro SD card.

Fire 7 boot times with the Nova rom are about 45 seconds to a minute. After installing Link2sd, the first boot after linking about 100 apps took 3 minutes. Later boots took about 90 seconds. So linking apps to the sd card does increase boot time on the tablet. Those times are for a cold start, from pushing the power button to being able to open the lock screen.

ADDENDUM: Well, after a couple of days of use, boot times are back to 60 seconds from a cold boot. Link2sd must have sorted things out. Wow.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lo11o:
Hi All,

I seem to have run into a very dire case where my 100% stock M8 is completely unusable, due to what seems to be a failed OTA update.

Phone will boot up normally, but as soon as the home screen comes up a "com.android.systemui" error comes up, preventing any type of further interaction with the os, since the screen goes black and start flashing an empty default background on and off indefinitely.

Now, I'm fairly computer literate but I never rooted or modded any phone so I spent the last 3 days on these forums looking up information and learning what rooting, bootloaders, ADB and all that fun stuff I had never heard of before meant. However, after initially being optimistic about at least getting my data back before an inevitable factory reset I have reached a dead end.

Here's what I went through so far:

- To backup without normal access to the OS, I need the ADB pull command

- To use the ADB, I need "USB debug" enabled BUT Can't access settings, so can't enable USB debug

- Searched for ways to work around enabling USB debug via bootloader/recovery

- Found out you can use ADB with a custom recovery image

- Tried flashing a custom image BUT bootloader is locked, so no dice

- Found the only way to unlock the bootloader with S-ON is via HTC dev BUT will wipe all data upon unlocking

- Found no way to set S-OFF without wiping

I can't believe a fully stock phone can be hard bricked by a simple OTA update just because I never tampered with it (cos if I did, I would have a lot more options).

I'm aware I'm going to have to factory reset eventually anyway, but I want to pull out whatever data I can first.

Please help, I'm running out of ideas.

Thank you all.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I can believe it, since I've seen it happen enough times to folks on these forums. You do a major update to the OS, bootloader, and radio; and there is always a possibility of rendering the phone non-operational.

What kind of data are we talking about? Is it on internal storage, and if so, can you see internal storage on your computer when you connect the phone?

If no to any of that, you're probably stuck at a dead end. If the data is important, it should have been backed up off-phone to begin with.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lo11o:
Thanks for replying redpoint, and the answer to both questions unfortunately is no.

I'm mostly interested in backing up text messages and notes, everything else is either synced with google or redownloadable. Of course I'll take care to remove the SD before resetting so whatever's in there won't be affected.

I have no idea what could have caused this mess. What's more infuriating is that the system underneath the error dialog does seem to be functional, notifications pop up and it even rings if I try calling my number, but can't pick up. Even Wi-Fi is on, for the record. Everything just goes to hell as soon as that dialog goes away (yes, I've tried ignoring it and trying to get the notification bar down). It's just that the fact it's technically not in a "bootloop" situation made me hope.

I read somewhere on these forums that unless your phone doesn't charge, doesn't turn on and doesn't even get recognised by a computer, it can almost always be saved. Am I truly SOL?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you can't interact with the phone to turn on Debugging, I personally can't think of any way to pull the desired data off the phone.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lo11o:
Bummer. I'll proceed with the factory reset then, live and learn.

Thanks for the advice, I learned a lot of very useful stuff from this community, having the patience to read and process all the wealth of information - even n00b-friendly, too. :good:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] eras2r:
Has anyone got tethering working with the Kaiser/Tilt on Linux? I cannot seem to get it working with the builtin Wmodem program (ipaq module) or MobileStream's USB modem (cdc_adm module).

I am new to AT&T from Verizon, and may simply be having GPRS ppp chat-script issues. So anyone with experience in getting this working... I would appreciate any help you could offer.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fde2blk22:
the way I've been tethering is with bluetooth. I found this tutorial and followed it: http://klamstwo.org/evad/archives/40

I run Fedora 7 (Moonshine) and it works flawlessly.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] eras2r:
Thanks for the info... I will give that a shot. Also, when I tethered my Treo on Verizon with bluetooth it was really slow. Since this is BT 2.0 and I have a BT 2.0 module for my laptop... how much difference do you think there will be between BT/USB tethering.

Thanks,

SC
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fde2blk22:
When I tethered my MDA it was slow too, mainly because of lack of 3G. Connecting was slow as well.

I've yet to get USB to work, actually I havent tried but I've done it in XP Pro and there wasn't much of a difference IMO.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] eras2r:
Got it working with wvdial

After many hours of tinkering, I got USB tethering with wvdial.

First, start the Wmodem program on the Tilt and select USB. Then click Menu-->Start

On the command line type: /sbin/modprobe ipaq vendor=0x0bb4 product=0x00cf

Now plug in your USB cable

If you type dmesg you should see that ttyUSB0 is now initialized

Create a /etc/wvdial.conf with the following:

[Dialer Defaults]

Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0

ISDN = off

Modem Type = Analog Modem

Baud = 460800

Init = ATZ

Init2 = ATZ+CGDCONT=1,"IP","ISP.CINGULAR"

Init3 =

Init4 =

Init5 =

Init6 =

Init7 =

Init8 =

Init9 =

Phone = *99#

Phone1 =

Phone2 =

Phone3 =

Phone4 =

Dial Prefix =

Dial Attempts = 1

Dial Command = ATDT

#Ask Password = on

Password = CINGULAR1

Username = WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM

Auto Reconnect = off

Abort on Busy = off

Carrier Check = on

Check Def Route = on

Abort on No Dialtone = on

Stupid Mode = on

Idle Seconds = 0

Auto DNS = on

Lastly create a file called /etc/ppp/peers/wvdial containing the 2 lines:

lcp-echo-failure 0

lcp-echo-interval 0

Now at a command prompt type wvdial

You should see it connect and get an IP address

You can put the modprobe statement in /etc/rc.local

Hope this helps... it works for me (I am posting this via the USB tether right now)

Also, can an admin change this thread name and add a SOLVED to it?

SC

Does anyone have any recommendations for regular PET film screen protectors? I need something to hold me over until the tempered glass issues get sorted out.
[LG G5 Accessories] Chillerman:
I bought the 3-pack from Verizon when I pre-ordered my phone. I had to cut the top portion off where the phone curves because the screen protector didn't stick there and it had no hole for the front facing camera. This from Verizon no less!
[LG G5 Accessories] t18skyguy:
I'm having the same issue. The hard plastic screen protector lifts of where the G5 screen slants down at the top. A fix would be to pre-mold the protector to fit this curve at the top. Kind of a bummer to have to cut it off below the speaker. Otherwise a great phone.

I own a gold s7 edge, never noticed how it was off white until just now... I mean it's not that bad but now I can't unsee it and it bothers me. I used to have a black one and they were honestly kinda off white. Samsung now tints it so it almost looks like the buttons aren't even there until the backlight for the buttons actually turn on. Did they tint it on your s6 edge too or no?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jroyalty7:
Lol sorry to ruin it for you it definitely cannot be unseen, but no my black s6 edge had pretty white capacitive buttons... however I can see your point regarding tinting them to blend with the color of the body. Not a deal breaker for me but wondering if it's normal and if there's a way to adjust the brightness/whiteness since we will not be seeing root most likely :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Crsdr37:
Why not just turn the capacitive buttons off.... no more tint
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jroyalty7:
I honestly like the buttons, just wish they were a brighter white when they light up. I saw there's an app for controlling how long they stay on or shut them off completely without root, but I just want them to look less yellowish.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jroyalty7:
Yeah the app is called galaxy button lights in the play store, it doesn't require root and allows you to turn them off/on and change the duration they stay on for. Unfortunately it doesn't completely disable them, they just don't light up if you turn them off. So the baby could still push them accidentally. I just use chrome cast for my kids when they want to watch a video, seems to help most of the time.
