[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] hmguerrero:
Hello to everyone.

2 days ago I received via OTA samsung software update, everything goes well and the update installed succesfully. But yesterday I realized that I was unable to write data on the MicroSD card, my first finding was the camera, the storage switch to memory device when I took a picture, and when I tried to record a video, an error appears and the camera app close.

I tried to create a folder with the file manager but it's not possible, I can't create, edit or delete anything on the SD card, only read. I already tried to unmount and re-mount but not worked for me, also I executed a formating process but the problem still.

The SD Card on the PC works just fine.

Any suggestions to follow? :(

Thanks in advanced!

Best regards!

bump an old thread, i'm confronting this problem, has a solution been found so far?

i did various searches and found the following links:

ExtSD Fix - a note in there says is Marshmallow is not supported yet

http://xdaforums.com/android/software/fix-extsd-fix-v1-0b-2016-01-18-t3296266

a web showing platform.xml fixes for 4.4 (K), however, it seem this same fix wouldn't fix S7 with MM

http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.sg/2015/01/how-to-unlock-external-sd-card-writing.html

i tried searching for WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE apparently the string is not even found in platform.xml on S7 with MM

other threads from s7 edge highlighting a similar problem

http://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/help/phone-write-to-external-memory-t3385764

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s7/help/write-to-sd-card-t3328704

this workaround for titanium backup works and it is good

http://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/help/external-sd-card-write-permission-t3341613

but it seemed most of other apps / file explorers with READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions still can't write to the external SD card

note that the stock 'My files' explorer can write / create folders in the SD card, but if u try a 3rd party app / explorer, nothing gets created on the SD card. This shows that it is a permission problem, perhaps "My files" has system permissions and not simply READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE. But that would be 'overwhelming' for a file explorer app to get full unlimited permissions to all resources just to write files / create folders on the external sd card

has anyone successfully made external SD card writable by (older) 3rd party apps simply editing/adding entries in platform.xml?

i tried it didn't seem successful. note that since 4.4 (K) i'd think most apps / explorers has requested READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE. the trouble is that with S7 MM and the recent update. it seemed even READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE is not adequate to write / edit files on the external SD card, e.g. not possible to create a new folder on the external SD card

Hello.

is it possible to take a slow motion video like with the Samsung S7?

The video starts in normal speed, then changed in slow motion speed and goes back to normal speed...

So you can make a video and anytime you change for a short time into the slow motion mode.

Is this possible with tha Alpha or ss there a solution for it?

Thank you,

kind regards!

Hio all. I'm having a problem with my T-Mobile Dash, but it's such an ordinary seeming problem within WM6 that I think it belongs here.

Pretty much, since yesterday, I've been getting errors saying that I'm low on storage. First thing I did was dump the PIE cache (10 MB), and the problem seemed to go away. However, once I woke up the next day (today), I was getting the same error. Lo and Behold, I'm down to 3.5K of internal storage, and I've even dropped to 0B.

All my caches have been dumped, and I keep everything sizable (pictures, video, audio, documents, programs larger than 300K) on my microSD card, but for some reason, something has been consuming tons of storage.

I'm trying to figure out, what files are safe to delete? Below is a rough sketch of my filesystem

Application Data: 10.9 MB (Largest contents: "Home" folder at 612 KB; "WordToGo" with a single file "22960WdDoc.dvz" sized at 934 KB; "Sounds" with various stock tones; "Volatile" at 8.1 MB, with 80 0B folders, "MIM4AF9.tmp" at 1.9 MB, "MIM9D83.tmp" at 3.9 MB, and "MIME3C0.tmp" at 2.4 MB)

cemail.vol: 1.3 MB

Documents and Settings: 996 KB

MAPI: 0B

Mobsh.txx: 1 KB

msg.txt: 4 KB (contains gibberish I never saw before)

mxip_initdb.vol: 28 KB

mxip_lang.vol: 96 KB

mxip_notify.vol: 212 KB

mxip_system.vol: 192 KB

My Documents: 3.4 MB

pim.vol: 3.4 MB

Program Files: 17.8 MB (Already scoured for caches)

Reg: 1 KB

Temp: 8KB

untitled: 1 KB

Windows: 100 MB

The Windows Folder is the one that interests me the most. When I browse it with Total Commander hiding all ROM files, I still get a mind bogglingly large number of files. When browsing on my computer, I am told I have over 1,560 files. For example, there are 31 image files that start with an underscore (_), and I've got a whole bunch DSM and RGU files (94 DSMs at about 252 KB, 54 RGUs at 1.3 MB) and a ton of other files I can't identify.

Any clues on what I could delete, or suggestions on tools that do some memory maintenance?

Thanks for the help!
[General Topics] levenum:
Do not delete stuff from your windows directory.

a) Not all OS files are marked as ROM. You still see a lot of OS with the ROM option off.

b) If you do manage to delete something from windows one app or another is guaranteed to stop working.

c) Your only safe bets are the tmp files in volotile and whatever you got in My Documents folder.

d) Do not touch vol files - these are contacts and other system databases.
[General Topics] leepriestenator:
A thread on cleaning up. I should've started this eons ago.

Most of the programs you install tend to want to put anywhere between 1 - 50 files in your Windows Directory. This is one of the reasons it takes forever to load the contents of the Windows directory.

Over the last few weeks, in the process of achieving a one click setup after hard resets, I managed to narrow down and filter out what goes into the Windows folder. In all I have about 1684 files under my Windows Folder after installing Esmertec JBED, Resco Explorer, SafeMode, WLM, SMS DR Fix, Transcriber and ATI Fix for Hermes using the Supa Dupa Lite WM6 ROM.

I have noticed that there are scores of image files built into the ROM. It would be great if some of the chefs could move the image files into another folder called 'images' under the Windows folder to minimize the time it would take to list the contents of the Windows Folder. Most of the registry entries could be edited to point to this new folder, unless of course some apps have the image locations hard coded into the programs themselves.

Coming back to your problem, the only solution aside from a monitored installation after a hard reset is to delete the Volatile Folder under Application Data and the *.tmp files.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maracuja212:
Hello guys!

I got a problem with my Tab3 Kids I bought:

I cannot power it on, but when I plug in the charger there is no charging animation, it's powering up and stucks in a power loop.

I can enter the download/odin mode and tried to flash the stock rom over kies or odin, but it doesn't change anything.

After a few hours of google, I think the bootloader might be corrupted or got overwritten.

So I'd like to flash the bootloader (Odin 3.07 has an entry therefor), but I can't find anywhere the right files..

I downloaded the T2105XWAML4_OLBAML3_v4.1.2_Repair_Firmware with the files

CODE_T2105XWAML4_1498265_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 for PDA

CSC_OLB_T2105OLBAML3_1491784_REV00_user_low_ship_.tar.md5 for CSC

LT02.pit for PIT

but I got nothing for the Bootloader. Could somebody share?

Or am I completely wrong on my way?

Thanks!!

So the google camera app defaults to using the terrible device mic when recording video, even with plugged in headphones with a mic.

I've tried several 3rd party apps but they don't seem to work well with the sensor, the image is flipped and autofocus has some issues.

Any way I could trick or reroute audio with tasker or something similar when headphones are plugged in?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Henkdrenth:
Hi all,

I have the newest MTCD firmware 5.1.1 from Malaysk installed because on stock rom my GPS failed.

Unfortunately this did not help.

Any suggestions?

Oh never mind, I discovered that hundreds of people have gps problems with Lollipop and Google does not care.

Does anyone know of a Kitkat rom for a MTCD device?

In Kitkat all worked like a charm.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] manman36:

the first time my gps see 20 satellite end have a connexion with 8 of this

after this the next day i can t see noone satellite...

i don t understand why...
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Henkdrenth:
It is a Lollipop problem. After Google's update from Kitkat to Lollipop the gps on many users devices have gps troubles.

Mine worked also in the beginning correctly, but after 1 or 2 days no satellites are found anymore.

Since I have a MTCD device, no Kitkat roms are available.

Look here for more information: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=81140

[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] TimeL0rd:
Recently I was using the phone normally , when the system locks up completely and gives reboot . He calls usually only that Android does not charge. When finished booting it restarts again.

I've tried to restore the recovery by the factory defaults, but it seems that is a problem because it does not restore .

I've tried also install another ROM , but the process takes more than 40 minutes and the old ROM is still there .

I'm using a ROM (for about 4 months) I downloaded from the site of sammobile.com

If anyone can help me , I would be grateful.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlorytoArstotzka:
Hi guys , this is my first post here.

I have a Alcatel Onetouch Idol 2S (6050Y) and it has terrible battery. I have tried almost every solution for Cell Standby on this forum but it did not work so I am posting my own thread. Problem is Cell Standby which uses around 30 - 50% of my battery and Phone Idle which uses 20-30%. I have disabled Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, Sync, Data Connection, Location, Location History, Keep WiFi on during sleep mode is on only when plugged in, Scaning Always Available is disabled, there are no Device Administrators, Wakelock Detector does not show anything strange and almost everything that I don't need is disabled. I use 2G network only.

I disabled some bloatware using root to get more battery, from 11 PM to 8AM it drains around 4% in idle, which for me is pretty good, but everytime I turn on my WiFi and start going to Youtube or Google it starts heating up like crazy and I cannot hold it in my hand, and DU Battery Saver reports 40 degrees Celsius when Youtubing or on Chrome. The battery goes down really fast. GSMArena reports that my phone can be upgraded to Android 4.4 ( its 4.3 now ) but when I press System Updates nothing happens. I think I have a pretty good signal ( 89 dBm ) and every other android phone in my house does not have such problems other than mine.

GSMArena reports that my battery is supposed to have 2150mAh but DU Battery Saver reports a 1390 mAh battery capacity. What is going on in here ? App called Battery Monitor says that there are 2 states of battery capacity 2137 mAh and 1390 mAh. What do I do to repair my phone?

[Huawei Mate S] Tuerkay:
Hello,

i recently bricked my Mate S UL00 while trying to convert it to L09 and update to Marshmallow. I flashed some L09 files via fastboot, then modifed the oeminfo and then had an working B145. But i wasn´t satisfied and wanted more. So i flashed the Marshmallow files and tried to boot.

That was when i bricked my phone. It just showed the huawei logo. No boot animation, no sound, no way to recover it. Not even able to shut it down.

I rebooted the phone with every button combination but wasn´t able to access any useful menu.

i thought i was lost until i accidentally discoverd a way to boot into fastboot mode.

1. installed HiSuite

2. waited until my Mate S went low on battery and shut down

3. plugged it into my computer

4. hold the Vol- button

5. pressed the power button

6. profit (device was instantly in fastboot mode)

was finally able to recover my phone.

just wanted to tell you this. Maybe someday, you will use this method.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangoose736:
I have had my Z5C E5823 since January, and was pretty happy with it - It would occasionally crash (maybe once a month?) which I was fine with - I figure nothings perfect.

I recently got the update for 6.0.1 pushed to my device and downloaded/installed it without issue. I started noticing right away that it would crash on random apps multiple times a day. I can be writing a text, borwsing the store, and get an error similar to:

"Unfortunately messaging has stopped"

"System UI has stopped"

"Google Play Store has stopped"

etc.

It doesnt seem isolated to one app, or to any one function as far as I can tell, but it is pretty frustrating to have this problem 3-4 times a day.

My carrier is T-Mobile, and I dont have many apps installed. None of the apps have changed since I updated to the newest software.

Has anyone else had this issue and know of a fix? This is borderline unusable, and I am almost ready to void my warranty and root the device to fix it...
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pelago:
I suggest trying a factory restore first.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangoose736:
Did the factory reset, and its been ok for a few days, but I got the same messaging has stopped and System UI has stopped error and had to restart again yesterday.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eng3:
I have been getting the SystemUI error many many times lately. I am rooted and using XPower with androplus kernel with xposed so I figure some there is messing me up.

Although, I distinctly remember sometimes being prompted to enter my pin when trying my fingerprint (a sign that systemui has restarted) long before I rooted so maybe something else is causing this issue.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangoose736:
I am not rooted, but with all the issues I am considering it - although in my experience rooting leads to LESS stability, not more...

On the other hand, maybe there is some stock Sony app that is causing all my issues that I can't get rid of (What's New, etc.).

Its a bummer because I love so much about the phone - only cons are these system UI shutdowns and a slow camera shutter (not that big a deal for me).

Has anyone had any luck with a stable ROM? something to push me over the edge to rooting it?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harry_turtle:
Don't root, don't unlock your bootloader.

Download flashtool and the latest firmware release, clear everything (You will lose all your data) and reinstall fresh, see how the results are.

That should do the trick, if not you can consider BL unlock.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangoose736:
This is exactly what I did, and results are better, but still not stable...My phone still crashes once a day or so.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harry_turtle:
Did you try another firmware version?

If you have the same results **** it and send it back for warranty, my z5c never crashes.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sadman Khan:
Yep I agree. It's not supposed to crash
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangoose736:
Quick update, I did a factory reset first, that didnt seem to help, but then did a factory reset immediately followed by a software repair, and the phone has worked well for about 2 weeks with no shutdowns - fingers crossed this good fortune continues.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echow2001:
First of all, you are posting in the N7 2012 forums, not the 2013 forums, which is the device you have. No, CM will not be as stable or secure as a stock or stock based rom like PureNexus. There are still many bugs even in the snapshot builds. You are better off with a rom that is cleaner and has fewer modifications.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] simon_darley:
it means u screwed it up n didnt follow instructions, and probably didnt read wiki.

get a new radio version, or do it again n reflash it.

ensure u have the right ipl/spl version n u understand the risks n bricking when u r upgrading radios.

i have completely wiped my device n bricked it doing radios. so re flash a rom of choice, reflash radios and alllow lots of hours redoing it all.

suggest u try just reflash a radio that works for ur region. be prepared to lose everything n hope u have backed it up before u starrted.
