For any having problems with titanium backup not able to access/write to ext SD card try this

As you have seen, Marshmallow has some new restrictions on how apps can use your external SD card. If you're like me, you use your external SD card for Titanium Backup, but as soon as you installed MM, Titanium Backup decided it wasn't working - specifically it can't access, or at least write to your Titanium Backup directory on your external SD card.

The only way is as follows IT WONT WORK THE NORMAL WAY OF SELECTING BACKUP LOCATION.

The solution is to configure Titanium Backup to access the external SD card slightly differently:

Go to Preferences -> Backup Folder Location.

Click on Storage provider at the top (it's not obvious that it's clickable).

Click on DocumentProvider storage. That will take you to a File Manager interface.

Then click the menu lines in the top-left and select your SD card, and click the "Select" at the bottom right. (You don't have to select your Titanium Backup folder here, you're just using this to get access to your SD Card.)

Now you should be back in Titanium Backup and you can browse like you used to to get to your preferred backup folder on your external SD Card

I warn you that using this Document Provider storage is much slower - at least it seems so for me. But, it seems that it's the only way to go for now.

If anyone has any better or alternate solutions, or better information, please let me know!

I take no credit for this but it helped me and it's working
[Sony Cross-Device General] Marília de Oliveira:
My work usually as I said above, but I had to download the updated application. I saw in the google that marmallow is giving sd error for lack of a few lines that do not contain the applications so is inaccessible. Thanks bro :):)
[Sony Cross-Device General] hagar006:
That worked... A great many thanks!
[Sony Cross-Device General] 0-0-0:
Thank you. It worked for me (Note 4).
[Sony Cross-Device General] sotoLOTO-:
Thanks! Worked like a charm! Only thing is that SEPARATION SPACE OF NAMES FOR ASSEMBLY is my SuperSU was called sth else, but doesn't matter. Thing is, it worked! Awesome! :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] Marília de Oliveira:
Great man :D
[Sony Cross-Device General] Invisighost:
Thanks worked for Samsung Galaxy S5 Xposed/TWRP/MM....this was the 'Only' method that worked for me after researching and trying everything. My headache is gone now thanks to you so much appreciated. It did not work if I selected the exact folder as well as selecting the ext Card so follow the steps to the Letter for those of you having issues. Why sh%t has to be this complicated for simple tasks is beyond my comprehension
[Sony Cross-Device General] ch3mn3y:
Have similar problem, but on KK - ASUS tf300t, PAC-man KK.

Option was unchecked, so I'm trying with it checked, as on my other KK device (Xperia Z Ultra, AICP 7.0, there is no problem with it).

I'm trying to use SDcard as backups storage.

Thought it's problem with Ti, but the problem persist in File Managers, when trying to copy/move "broken" backups.

Best is that it's not one or few apps, but it "changes" once for a while and backup of app "broken" before is fine, but got the error on different one...

In File Manager the error looks like this: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError.

Right know I checked the option in SuperSU and did Wipe of Dlavik and Cache. Will see if it helps.

If not: Maybe anyone has similar adventures with Ti and can help with this?
[Sony Cross-Device General] evildog1:
It is called "Mount namespace separation"

It is the most annoying feature we have ever seen
[Sony Cross-Device General] Discoreggae:
This worked with Nougat 7.0 on my Samsung S7 edge, but the key as you mentioned just select the root folder of the SD card, then back in Titanium I selected the Titanium folder. If I selected the Titanium folder in the file manager interface it didn't work.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Harshatxda:
What to do for those root managers which are built internally like in RR Rom. We have no SU app. Then what?
[Sony Cross-Device General] doug_scott:
This simple process fixed my backup error. I have been unable to set number of revisions higher than one due to the insufficient free space. Can't count number of factory resets, different versions of Android (5, 6 and 7), and the number of times I tried using the SD card in both modes. Even doing a completely clean install, with only being rooted and only titanium backup installed, it still refused to backup more than one revision.

Currently I have titanium set to keep 3 revisions, stored on SD card using the above procedure, and have had error free backups for 7 days now.

Backups are one operation that needs to be as simple as possible. Everyone should be able to perform a complete backup without needing to understand or learning convoluted processes.
[Sony Cross-Device General] booboss:
I can confirm it worked for me, however I find the backups to do actually faster then before instead of slower :) Have no idea why. On the other hand no matter which way TB access SD card I see another strange issue. In case of some apps being backed up TB during backup says "Skipping..." (because no newer version from last backup and that's OK) which takes several minutes. Other apps are skipped in miliseconds.
[Ornate TrueSmart] AT328PRO:
Hello,

I recently acquired a 1GB/8GB/2100 Truesmart, the original model. The recovery seems to not work and installing TWRP was unsuccessful so far. I have been reading that there has been variations of my watch model, and thus differing ROMs that can be flashed.

How would I identify the model of my watch? And how would you get TWRP on it and/or flash ZIPs without a working recovery? And do you have a list of good ROMs with working sensors for it? I'm looking at Monoxide ROM right now, but I can't install it because of lack of TWRP.

Thanks!

good luck!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] t.pro:
ok thanks, i have tried this:

i do softreset. whenn the stripes came i push "records and "camera"(media player button because there is no camera)---> nothing happens. it stops with the line R 1.10.00 and the coloured stripes.

i dont knwo what to do.

the bootloader method is running. i hold power and record button while i softreset. but with color screen it wont work.

they is no camera button (it is media-player button) because there is no camera. its an german xda III (blue angel).

the next problem is i dont knwo what os is right now on it. befor flashing it was wm2003 and flashing says it was successfully. i dont know if its wm6 or wm2003!

:(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] t.pro:
ok now all is happen...

the xda says nothing. it dont go on, it dont work anymore. no lights when in cradle, nothing.

can i do anything?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] jakubd:
1. Take the battery out, wait a moment, put it back, do not turn on. Put in the cradle and try to charge it. Use power connection (from power supply), disconnect USB from the computer for charging. Amber led should turn on.

2. When it will be fully charged (amber LED will turn off) try to turn it on and enter bootloader. Try to downgrade to WM2003. If it works fine, try again to flash WM5 or WM6.

What you did seems to be wrong update (wrong rom, wrong file, not fully flashed). But you still have bootloader, so it should be possbile to flash it. But you need full battery.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] t.pro:
it was not unlocked befor i flashed with bootloader-method.

i charged the battery in cradle (withoud the blue-angel). the led first went orange, after a while turned green (fully loaded). put it back in BA an nothing happens. then put BA (with battery) in cradle and the led became red.

no action on devide, no feedback, nothing. it wont turn on but led is still working.!?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] t.pro:
ok i get it. in display is the "USB" & "v2.07". now i can flash. but my problem is the phone is not unlocked yet. what file can i flash now??
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] jakubd:
This message tells you are in bootloader mode. Now you can perform normal flash - I would propose you to use tested&working rom (WM2003?). If this works fine, try again to upgrade to WM5/WM6.

BTW: if you disconnect USB (take out BA from cradle) it should show Serial instead of USB.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] t.pro:
ok big tanks to the forum. i finally get it. wm6 german on blue-angel! :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] Bla_Bla:
Same thing here... but worst..

My 9090 is stuck at bootlader...

When i try to update, (i press the power, record and reset), it says:

SERIAL (or USB)

DOC VERSION IS ERROR!

v2.08

Any idea???
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] SilverSamurai:
that's normal...

try to flash/update your BA in that screen.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] Ather:
the easy way to go into bootloader mode is to execute a file called Enter Bootloader.exe ..it comes with the rom u download..( well it came with xplodes )

Note:- you have to execute this file directly on your deive not on your desktop PC...and i have only tested this on WM 2003..maybe it will work with wm6 also
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] Bla_Bla:
I there...

I just updated to BA_TMNL_14200_119_11300_Ship, but only with Maupgrade, couldnt do it with baupgrade...

The problem is that i cant put extended rom, whem i try to upgrade is allways an error... and in the settings i dont have extended rom instaled...

Besides that the batery only last 1hour and the PDA is always freezing... i'm always doing resets...

any idea??

Sorry for my bad english by the way...

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] queso_burrito:
A number of reviewers have noted serious issues with the ips lcd panel on the lg g5, specifically backlight bleeding and "blooming" (when pressure from touching the screen causes distortion). Has anyone else out there with the g5 experienced these issues? If so, will you try to return and get a replacement?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] turbodroid:
Have noticed neither of these problems. I don't ever run 100% brightness on the screen, then switch to a black background and go into a bathroom and view the screen. And, I don't press the screen hard enough to cause distortion. If you don't do these things, you will never notice an issue.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] chaki-:
There is clearly a problem more or less with some units ( bleeding light).

And you don't need to push hard to cause distortion.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] poisonousjuice:
I have a very strangle faint vertical line on the right side. Not visible with a black background but looks almost blue-ish on a white background. Like a line of a very light shadow.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Fadman37:
I've seen this issue too, but not enough to bother me. I didn't notice it with my phone until i read this post.

I think it's due to the design and battery placement. I think there's a very small gap between the battery and the screen, where the LCD is practically floating and when you put pressure on the phone, the screen deflects a bit until it makes contact with the battery. Otherwise, the battery would get scratched up if that gap wasn't there.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] poisonousjuice:
Yes, I have a 2nd G5 and it has the same vertical shadow, except much fainter. I wouldn't of noticed this new one if it wasn't for my first phone being so prominent.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] JNordgren42:
Haven't checked for light bleed, but no bloom issues with finger presses whatsoever. I pushed as hard as I was comfortable on several locations and nothing. Also no shadow that I can make out and I am very sensitive to that kind of thing, especially if I'm looking for it.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] poisonousjuice:
I tried swapping out the battery & bottom-chin-thing between my two phones and now my original first phone that had the worse 'shadow line' has improved a little bit. So there's definitely a fault between the contacts that's causing this effect.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] queso_burrito:
It just seems like such a mixed bag in terms of quality control:( Kills me too, since I've been super stoked for this device since MWC
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Fadman37:
I'm not completely sure what you mean by fault between the contacts, but i think the issue is due to very small and minute variance in battery shape or size. This variance is probably causing different pressure points on the bottom of the LCD screen causing the shadow.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 PM ----------

Personally, I wouldn't call it bad quality control, but rather mechanical and structural design limitations with the materials currently available for use. The thickness of the G5 is only 7.7mm (0.303 inches), that's pretty incredible with a phone that has a removable battery. By comparison the Galaxy s7, is 7.9mm (0.311 inches).

I maybe speaking out of line here, but from an engineering point of view, I am impressed with the design. I am a little worried about the battery swelling up crowning the screen, but i guess i can change the battery if that happens. I've had some battery well up a little in the past...

I've had the phone for 5 days and the more i use it, the more i like it. Believe me, i'm looking for every reason to hate the phone while i still have 8 days to return it if i wanted to. After that, i'm stuck with it for two years.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] poisonousjuice:
I don't have any technical knowledge with this stuff but just thought perhaps there's some kind of interference or feedback happening near those plugs next to the battery inside that's causing it like when you hold a magnet up to an old tv.

The battery of my last two phones (Droid Maxx & Galaxy S5) both swelled up which is why I went with the only phone that offers a replaceable battery :)
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] turbodroid:
FYI, I have a small magnet attached to the battery for my wizgear phone holder in my car. No issues with the screen when I press hard. There is definitely an interference fit now sliding the battery out, but it's not causing any issues.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] keenerb:
I'm pretty sure a swollen battery in a G5 will absolutely destroy the phone.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] scottricketts:
Ditto. The issues AP and others have reported, I've not seen at all. My only real complaint is not being able to do tap to focus reliably on the camera.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] SirKittyMcMittens:
I have the led bleed issue, but now I also have image burn in as well. you can see a faint update popup box and notification bar on the screen.

I'm assuming the phone updated last night, and when it finished, it never turned the screen off and left me with what I'm hoping isn't a permanent reminder of the update pop up ghosted on my screen.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] alexp999:
LCDs don't burn in. If you have anything it is image persistence. Leaving the screen off for a bit (like overnight) and should clear itself.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] SirKittyMcMittens:
I'm noticing it's going away on it's own by keeping the screen off, so you're right it isn't a burn in. thank you for informing me. I'm still getting it replaced however due to the backlight bleed.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Jcueva24:
A coworker of mine was given a G5 as part of an advocacy program. Within 3 days of getting the phone before the actual launch day, half the screen was unresponsive. We turned it off and next thing we saw was half the screen was showing the home screen, and the other half was stuck on the LG startup. Seems the G5 is having the same issue that LG recalled the G4 for.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Fadman37:
I agree, i wouldn't call tap to focus a 100%, but one of my favorite futures with the camera, is the manual focus. I think that for me that makes up for it. Do you know if the s7 has manual focus?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] gent89:
ive noticed this im on my 4th phone from att. I love the phone but i cant deal with it it bothers me too much. i will be returning it soon.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] warrensteelshank:
I Disagree

My first LG G5 from a T-Mobile store was Gold as it was the only color they had available at the time of launch of 4/1/16 in the US. Upon sending some texts later that day, I noticed the dark blurry line dancing up and down the right side of my display as I was swiping a text message. I typically run my display around 15-25% brightness as it is usually in my pocket during a majority of the day and when I take it out to use it for research, the blinding halogen lighting used in my workplace does not cause me to need to turn up the display any brighter. So I attempted to use my phone with a soft tip capacitive pen instead. I didn't notice it as much as previously but I still noticed it after having noticed it the first time, my eyes were drawn to the location and watching out for it. I most definitely could see the line even with the soft touch of a capacitive pen. Now I ordered a replacement phone to be shipped to me from their warehouse in hopes to resolve the issue. My replacement was the silver version of the LG G5. This one had no issues the first 3 days but suddenly on the 4th day, the line showed up. In talking with the T-Mobile rep, he did mention that there is a gap between where the right side of the battery meets the left side of the internals of the phone when installed and that gap has been causing these reported problems. Same issue, 2 different phones, different colors, different batches, you decide. I am ordering one more replacement as of this posting to verify the issue still exists. If so, this will verify the issue with LG G5 phones at least through T-Mobile as a US carrier. Design flaw? Defect? I hope that if you have never noticed the issue that you never will and enjoy the phone until its usefulness expires to you and you trade up or out.
