[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hasenbein1966:
Hello,

I have a metronome app which uses .wav files which are stored in a subdirectory of /data/data/[app name]. Android 6.0.1, Oneplus 3.

Now I wanted to modify these wav files with Wavelab and put them back into place (via ES File Explorer in root mode).

That worked, BUT the owner of the files is now "root", and the app won't play the files anymore.

How can I either reset the file owner or prevent the ownership from changing??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hasenbein1966:
Does no one answer because this problem isn't solvable?

Or is it because my question unmasks me as noobish??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] veez21:
Why not copy the wav files to sdcard then modify it?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hasenbein1966:
Hahaha, you obviously don't understand what my problem is (although I think I described it clearly). It's no problem to copy the files elsewhere and modify them; it's when I copy them back into the original directory via root explorer that the file owner gets changed to "root" which makes them inaccessible to the metronome app.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] veez21:
i think you can't do anything about it since its in "/data"
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ale5000:
What about manually changing the owner back to the correct value after copying?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hasenbein1966:
No, that isn't possible. Only owner selectable is "root".
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ale5000:
Then the limit is in your file manager or root app, just change them
[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] Pro4TLZZ:
1 : do I have to be rooted to flash?

2 ; will sp flash tools flash the kernel too?

3 : what do I choose to keep apps and photos?

4 : do I choose firmware or download?
[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] jotei66:
Although I'm still learning a lot with andriod, (having used IOS iPhone jailbroken devices previously)

But I will try to advise / help as best I can -

1) No you dont have to be rooted to flash a ROM. You can flash a ROM and then install a custom recovery (eg like TWRP) and then you may root the device

2) As far as I am aware yes you can, although I am not really up to speed on Kernels

3) If you dont want to reinstall all your apps after a fresh ROM flash, you can use third party apps which backup all your apps (and their data).. there a numerous apps on PlayStore that can do this. Some only backup apps, some backup data and apps - ie Titanium BackUp backs up virtually everything as an example. As my photos / videos are automatically backed up to Google anyway, I never back them up as I can restore via Google anyway. My music collection (due to it being kinda very large) I simply just have that backup up on my PC and manually copy my music across once everything's restored.

4) I am assuming you are referring to SP Tools when flashing. My advice would be to basically do what I did and do a little reading of some threads on Flashing a ROM, there are lots of guides here within the Elephone P9000 section & also on the Elephone official site HERE

Sorry I know its pretty basic advice, but I'm learning too - my advice is to have a read of a few tutorials

Good luck :good:

[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] jotei66:
I'm assuming you probably have the Aerom V5 Rom (maybe wrong there - but I know that has a fast charging issue)

http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p9000/how-to/stock-stock-rom-elephone-p9000android-6-t3428253

Ty much appreciated. It has been a while since I created this thread since then I have stopped using this mod because it's kind of a headache to do it for every update add to that since Google already enabled the battery percentage inside the battery there was no need any more for the mod. Anyway it's still great to be able to change from time to time. Regarding the tutorial I am sorry to say I haven't tried to create a custom ROM so I can't help you much with that but I am sure there are a lot of tutorials but will require some time to search. Good luck with your project.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnightrider:
The consensus seems to be that adoptable storage is bad. Don't do that. The issue is even good SDXC cards are slower than the onboard flash. If cards keep getting faster then maybe it would be a better idea. I am not sure why you need root. Seems to me when you plug in a new card you get the choice right then whether you want it to be adoptable storage or portable storage.

[About XDA developers] dechubb:
Another one to the list. I picked up my HTC Touch Dual from an Orange store on Monday. Absolutely cracking phone but a few minor things that I'd like help on. Patiently waiting for a Touch Dual forum as the HTC Touch/Elf isn't quite the same.

Anyone know how to app unlock it? I'm trying to install some software so that I can rotate the photo album and video player to portrait view. Would also like the ability for the photo and video to be able to search folders other than the one on the device.

Thank you. Waiting in anticipation for the new forum.
[About XDA developers] jcostanza4:
It may look like an elf, but has many hardware differences

The elf uses a TI OMAPI 200Mhz Processor with 128 rom 64mb ram and a 2.8 inch screen

The Dual has a 400Mhz Qualcom Processor with 256mb rom and 128mb ram, a 2.6 in screen, two cameras (video calling), UMTS/HSPDA, and last but not least a keypad or keyboard(depending on model).

A huge hardware difference, Simularities in design and touch capabilites though. The elf is thinner, but I want to say the Dual is slimmer in width and longer too.

Possible antenna port out for wifi or GPS?!

After removing the battery cover, I noticed a brass ring that looks very simular to an antenna hookup simular to what an xm radio satlite antnenna looks like or a very small BNC type coaxle connection toward the bottom of the phone near the sim card. Check out the attachment for a photo. I have never noticed this on any other HTC device I have owned in the past.

Any thoughts anybody? Does this help support wifi or gps capabilities?

BTW, I love my Touch Dual; Best phone/HTC device I have ever had.

[About XDA developers] draxredd:
the Dual is not an Elf with a keyboard, it's a Kaiser with a smaller keyboard.

the hardware is 99% the same, and i guess so are its problems.
[About XDA developers] jcostanza4:
Your right, just never noticed it. For some reason it just stood out more and may never came to mind until we brought up wifi/gps. On my Herald and Wizard it is recessed into the phone, but the Dual has it real close to the casing.

That is a better comparison for the Dual. Though the hardware maybe simular, the Touch driver is the one unique thing to the Touch and Dual. Ive had other devices that user "simulated" this effect but it is not the same. Wifi and GPS are deffinetly the benifit to the Kaiser, but the size of the Dual impresses me alot. Ive owned a Imate jam and I swore it was the smallest Pocket PC around with a 400mhz processor until now.

What problems are you experiencing? I have not owned the kaiser but the Dual hasnt given me problems yet (1 week ownership) I would be interested to know if I am missing something. The only software Ive added to it is MS Voice Command 1.6 and SPB Mobile Shell 1.5. I did have to play with connection settings a bit to get the internet to work. It would not connect until I changed the GPRS setting from PAP to CHAP.

Only thing I lack is a UMTS/HSPDA connection but I thinks its because of my area. Does anybody know US availibilty or if there is specific connection settings that UMTS/HSPDA requires? Right now the fastest I connect at is EDGE.

HTC Album getting pictures from storage card.

If you take a picture with the camera with the settings pointing at the storage card it will create a DCIM folder. You can place pictures there even if they are in sub folders. As long as they are in that folder the HTC album will find them. I use WMP 11 for syncing images; it sizes them down, then I move them to the DCIM folder. HTC album is quick to load and scroll through them. I loaded a couple of 4 & 5mb images and it works just lags on scroll a bit and loading thumbnails. I wish you could setup WMP to resize to a little higher resolution for zooming; Any suggestions?

I would like to find a reg tweak to move the location on the Storage card from "DCIM" to "My Pictures". Then syncing pictures would be a one step process.

Hi Everyone, few months ago I have tried and successfully rooted/flashed my GS3 and used other ROM. Then I got weary of it and I have installed/revert original android 4.3 stock ROM to my device. last month.

Now my issue is that my phone is getting detected via Odin(when it is turned on) and KIES/Smart switch, But when I put it into the Download Mode phone it isn't getting detected by Odin. What I actually want to do now is to root, flash another custom ROM in order to play PKGO

But now even the Unified toolkit is not working and i have tried many tuts I can search. Please Help me out.

I have also tried to use different cables.

1. I have already installed drivers and phone is detected via KIES and ODIN when it is turned on.. Then suddenly disconnects whenever I put into download mode.

2. USB debugging is activated/On

3. I'm using 4.3 stock ROM.

4. I'm using PC with Windows 10 OS. but i think that is not the issue since it's being detected when it's turned on (means not using download mode).

I found similar issue thread but no solutions were yet available.

[Fire HD 6 and 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xSentinel:
I have an HD6 that is rooted. SO far it's been great but then I updated Firefox to the new 48. I don't know if it's related or not but after doing that update the HD6 has completely slowed down surfing. Even other pass like K9 email are also slow. It takes forever to check my email now and that should have nothing to do with Firefox.

So what I tried first was to completely uninstall Firefox and reinstall a fresh copy. No good; did nothing. Surfing with browser and email are still slow.

I checked with MalwareBytes to see if I got infected with something but it says I'm clean.

Then I looked in my root folder and I noticed a lot of files but I don't know what files are supposed to be there or if these are new. They all have a date of 1969 oddly enough. Could someone please give me a list of files (not folders) that should be in the root directory so I can check to see if these are legit before trying to delete them? They all start with the name init and end with a .rc. So they look like "init.usb.rc" with a date of Dec 31, 1969.

Other than that I have no idea why this thing suddenly became such a slow dog.

One other odd thing I noted. During the Firefox update to 48 it said that it needed to add a new permission. I don't remember the name but it was something like Amazon notification or something like that. Don't know if it's related but I just remembered it.
