hey everyone,

did a search on google and here but didn't find what i was looking for.

what keeps a ppc faster? installing programs on the device or the storage card?

thanks,

georgios
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Taninpv:
Personally, program would run faster if it was installed on the device, but to save space....storage card is for that.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fgrump123:
It depends on the program and your personal habbits.

If you are one that has multiple memory cards and swaps them in/out or uses wm5torage, I would suggest programs you use often to be installed on the device.

if you're like me and just leave a card in the phone, then either way
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] neavissa:
i never swap cards. so i guess it doesnt matter huh?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Nah, I install all the important ones onnthe phone and all the ones that are not so important on the SD, right now there are none. I guess Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man, and Dig Dug are important ;).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ericc191:
With some roms over 140+ mb space, it definitely won't hurt to install your programs to the main memory. Also, I've run into errors and duplicate folders, ect. from installing to the SD Card.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NuShrike:
If you install to sd card, you won't loose anything, except registry entries/configuration, after a hard-reset/rom-reflash. I put all my stuff there that I hate restoring.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Radeon123:
I install everything to the sd card, only install apps on the phone memory if the program requires it or an app doesn't like running from the sd card.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
No its almost the same, if you have an external HDD, then they will show up in controll panel remove programs, and it will be on the desktop, but when you remove the HDD it will be there but wont run.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RogueTrooper:
They way I do it is if the program runs all the time, lets say a complete system overlay like SPB Mobile Shell or PocketPlus, a real system type program I'll install it on the device. But if it's just an app I run once in a while say Google Maps I'll install it on the card because it only runs when I choose to run it..

Hope that helps!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mattarse:
I do find that programs like mobipocket run much better when I install to the phone. Seems to hang alot from the card. To me it appears that the phone memory has much quicker access time, but not every program is affected.

I think of it more as the difference between a portable app installed on a usb stick versus the same program running off the desktop.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] SilentlyScreaming:
One other thing to consider (at least it was the case with WM2003SE devices) is if the program/util was run at startup, automatically, it made a lot more sense to put it phone memory, as otherwise the delay in waiting for the SD card to be accessible could cause a slowdown/even hangs!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] 246810:
I install the majority of applications onto my 8GB storage card.

However, I've just discovered that whenever I remove my 8GB memory card, my device memory rises incredibly...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ronfin44:
I guess it depends on the type of app you're installing. Something like MagiCall I put on the device so there's no problem blocking calls, but Mio Maps right on the memory card with just a shortcut in the /Windows/Startup Programs folder. If the apps important, then device, but if it's just Pac Man for example, card. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ewingr:
Interesting responses. I've installed apps that the instructions say "Must NOT install on SD card" in the instructions. Some say "You may install on SD card, but be aware that it may be unstable".

comments?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Thats there for your safety, it means that if you have any data loss of any kind it wont be the applications fault. It may need to be next to the registry but it really doesnt matter. Games and such, SD card, system tools and registry editors may need to be in the main memory but don't have to.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
I install applications on the storage card, and Today plugins on the device. The only "Application" I have on my device itself is Slide 2 Unlock.

Hi All,

I have a Sony Smartwatch 3, Android Wear 1.5, Sony Smartwatch 3 ROM M1D64T V2 | Sony Smartwatch 3 Kernel tetra_3.14.45 (4 cores)

When I use "ok google" to do a command for example say text. It would text once and then another time when I unlock my phone. Similar issue with everything else: calling, setting a timer (once on the watch and once on the phone when i unlock) etc. Not exactly sure what the issue is - be it android wear update or the phone itself or a setting I don't know about. I've been having this issue ever since I got a new phone (S7 edge). Was working fine on my old phone (S5).

Any advice or answers would be helpful.

Thanks :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elvis840:
So I was fiddling with my dad's spare phone that had a chinese rom and no GAPPS, so I flashed first flashed LENOVO K860i FlyUI rom based on 4.2.2 via custom recovery as it was a ZIP file. Later on due to some issues with the rom, I flashed another rom that originally belonged to K860 through the original recovery. The rom file was in SZB format, which is the original firmware's format, and that bricked the phone. The screen lights up but nothing comes on though I can hear the intro tone. I cannot go to the recovery either. Connecting with the USB cable lets me install its driver properly through its drive. I believe this Phone is partially bricked and can be recovered as the device lets me install its driver when connected . Therefore, I ask the experts to help me in getting this phone back to life. Thanking you in anticipation, cheers!

Does your android phone battery instantly drop down to 10% or less in a span of 2 to 3mins?

I found that it is the batterystats.bin log file which gets corrupt due to intense usage sessions. You can reset that file using any battery calibration app. Its safe and works 100%

Search in google play store for battery calibration apps. They all do the same job.

Procedure:- 1) Plugin your android phone and full charge till 100%

2) Click the button in the app to start calibration.

3) Unplug your phone and let it discharge normally.

4) If it does not charge at all, try calibrating it first and then charging.

If this method works for you drop a comment below. :angel:

I just received my new Moto G5 Plus, and I'm still trying to customize it. I have AOKP on it, but want to change the bootanimation to something more minimal.

i own a zte quest (n817) which is very sluggish. i had it rooted and decided to uninstall a good amount of apps to help it run faster a few months back. it worked fine for the uses i needed it for (calls, text, few apps, wifi etc.) but i wanted to do a factory reset. after doing so from the settings menu, my phone rebooted and went through the setup but the home screen is blank (screenshots below). im thinking the phone didnt reset all the way and it also might still be rooted. i wanted to know what i could do to try and recover the phone in its original state.

things ive tried: im able to put the phone in stock recovery, tried an update.zip from a similar zte phone but wouldnt work. tried a factory reset and cleared cache from the recovery. when the phone is at the home screen, i can plug the phone up to the pc and see the contents of the phone. i can also put the phone in download mode. while in download mode, tried to run some adb commands so i could maybe use dd to flash the .img files but either the operation not permitted or it just did nothing.

im trying to find the update.zip for this phone because i think that would be the simplest option. other than that, any help is much appreciated

[Magisk] John877:
I installed Magisk Manager 5.3.0 and opened it and clicked on Install to download Magisk 14 and to patch the boot.img file that I got from the Samsung Firmware file.

I patched the file and that completed fine with no errors.

I then copied the patched boot.img file to my computer so I could run ODIN on to flash it. Its in the proper format, "magisk.img.tar" is that I called it.

I opened ODIN 3.12 and selected the file under BL and plugged my phone in while in Download Mode.

ODIN detected my phone with the Added! msg in the log window.

ODIN is still running as I type this and all that is in the log is the following:

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin engine v(ID:3.1203)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

Theres no change on the phone screen either.

OEM Unlock is enabled as on the phone screen it says FRP Lock: Off

Phone is a Samsung Galaxy J3 Emerge (J327P) with Boost Mobile

Samsung firmware file from SAMMOBILE is J327PVPU1AQF4_J327PSPT1AQF4_BST
[Magisk] jenslody:
It has to be added in AP not BL.
[Magisk] Hani88:
I did the same and I tried to flash it in odin in AP but odin crushes!!

My phone is Galaxy S7 edge
[Magisk] jenslody:
Can you by any chance send me the boot-image, stock, patched, tared ?

Or do you have the possibility to untar the image (or create just the boot.img) and use a "real" gnu-tar (preferred on linux).

Or give me the exact firmware, so I can try to create the image and tar it with the tar on my Fedora system ?

When doing the (internal) beta-tests I had the same issue, because of incorrect tar-headers (gnu-tar does not care about it). That should be fixed in MagiskManager, but Odin seems to be extremely nitpicking about the tar-header.

It might also be a problem with signed (or better not signed) bot-image, but I guess this would lead to another error.
[Magisk] Hani88:
Well for me I only know how to extract the boot.img file from the AP file using winrar and patching it using magisk then renaming to .img.tar

I don't know anything about gnu-tar linux
[Magisk] jenslody:
Can you give me the exact version of your rom, so I can download it and send you a patched image for testing ? Or send me the boot.img either patched, stock or patched and tared ?
[Magisk] 白い熊:
Well, if that's what you did, no wonder why it's failing and Odin is stuck on analyzing the image—it's not in the proper format, you shouldn't rename it, you need to tar the boot.img file.
[Magisk] Hani88:
It is

GF935FXXS1DQHM

I downloaded it from samfirm

I can send you the boot.img tomorrow because my laptop is not with me

---------- Post added at 06:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------

Now I understand because inside it also there is not "meta inf " folder. How to tar it ?
[Magisk] jenslody:
In MagiskManager's settings chose the .img.tar output format. The patched image should be named "patched_boot.img.tar", if it's just "patched_boot.img" you can not directly flash it!
[Magisk] Hani88:
But in odin in AP I am not able to import img file
[Magisk] jenslody:
That's why you have to chose the correct patch-format in MagiskManager's settings before patching the stock boot.img .

In the settings click/touch "Patch Boot Output Format" and chose ".img.tar", then in the main menu click/touch "Install", then again "Install", then "Patch Boot Image File", chose the stock-image and wait until it is patched.

This should create a file named "patched_boot.img.tar" in the MagiskManager-folder of your internal storage.

This should be flashable.

Changing just the ending of any file does not change the format and can not work therefore.
[Magisk] Hani88:
Thanks for the explanation.. I will do it tomorrow

Flashing a patched boot image will trip the knox counter right ? Of course mine is tripped but I want to know that
[Magisk] John877:
[MENTION=8340552]jenslody[/MENTION] I have just tried flashing the patched boot.img file in ODIN under the AP/PDA field and depending on ODIN version it either crashes or is stuck at file analysis. I have named the file "magisk" to keep the filename short. Therefore the full filename is magisk.img.tar. It was created using the patcher in magisk manager with the output setting of img.tar. I prefer to flash it in ODIN as I would like to keep the stock recovery for the sake of future updates.

How I obtained the boot.img file is from opening the stock firmware image from SAMMOBILE and extracting the AP file and grabbing the boot.img. I also grabbed the recovery.img this way just to have it. I dont have access to any other way of extracting the files as I dont have or use linux personally so its my windows 10 computer only.

As you offered the other guy above I am including my stock extracted boot.img file as well as my exact firmware version on SAMMOBILE.

The exact firmware filename is: J327PVPU1AQF4_J327PSPT1AQF4_BST

Its the Samsung Galaxy J3 Emerge (2017) from Boost Mobile (J327P) with Baseband version ending in QF4. Its on Android 6.0.1.

I was unable to attach the boot.img file here cause its too big (11.7mb) and the upload failed when I tried to ZIP it instead cause the limit there is 20mb. So here it is on DropBox instead.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/azyeqrx7rtvjvik/boot.img

Once again the is extracted directly from the firmware file with winrar with no magisk patching.
[Magisk] jenslody:
This should work, unless your ODIN-version stumbles about other things than mine.

Nevertheless, I uploaded a patched version of your boot.img to my server: https://rpm.jenslody.de/magisk/J327PVPU1AQF4_patched_boot.img.tar .

It's tared with the tar from my Fedora-system, but the (tar-header related) fixes @topjohnwu made to the java-tar he uses in MagiskManager made the created image flashable on my J5 (latest stock).

I also added a tared image with md5-checksum for you to test: https://rpm.jenslody.de/magisk/J327PVPU1AQF4_patched_boot.img.tar.md5
[Magisk] 白い熊:
[MENTION=8340552]jenslody[/MENTION], just for me to understand—you get the patched version via Magisk Manager, then untar it, then tar it again with a custom built tar?

Where are the patches you mention?
[Magisk] John877:
I think I realized my mistake. I extracted the boot.img file from the AP file of the firmware then not realizing it has to be inside a tar archive file I just renamed the boot.img file boot.img.tar instead. I feel like kind of an idiot right now. :P

Would it be sufficient to just use 7zip to create a tar archive with the boot.img file inside it?

Also would this be how to flash the recovery.img file too if I flash TWRP and want to go back to the stock recovery?
[Magisk] jenslody:
I used the stock boot for J3, patched it through MagiskManager (one as *.img, one as *.img.tar), renamed the patched_boot.img to boot.img (taht's what Odin expects inside the tar, used Fedora's tar (I'm on Fedora 26) to create a tar archive from it and just for testing added a md5-checksum to one version of it.

MagiskManager is the 5.30 released with/for Magisk 14.4, bot patched. The fixes I mention were made by [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] in the (internal) beta-testing for 14.4.

To be clear:

the released Magisk with MagiskManager create img.tar-files that work for my J5 with the Odin-version I use (Odin3 v3.10.7) without any tweaking.

My self-tared versions are for testing purposes, to see if other Odin versions are more nitpicking than mine (about tar-headers). The included boot.img is exactly (binary) the same.
[Magisk] Hani88:
Same question here.. and you are not the only one who's feeling like an idiot now :p

[Magisk] 白い熊:
It's unnecessary, you should just select .img.tar as the output format in Magisk Manager's settings. Then you can use the .img file you've extracted from the stock firmware. Magisk Manager will patch the .img file and create a patched .img.tar

This you should be able to flash with Odin.
[Magisk] John877:
When I extracted the boot.img file from the firmware it was boot.img. When I patched it from magisk manager, it was boot.img still even though I chose output format img.tar.
[Magisk] jenslody:
The original image is not changed, the new one is placed in [/root/of/internal/storage]/MagiskManager (as written in the output windows of MagiskManager.
[Magisk] John877:
I know that. It was still boot.img apparently. Well, patched.boot.img of course.

Im an idiot. :P
