One last question, can you install as many fonts as you want by this method? and preserves the font that comes by default or replaces it with the new one?. Thank you
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] bakatan:
Did you watch the video ? The video answers your question. It will add another new font. It will not replace it. You can add as many as you want
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] miarosan:
Thanks again, I have seen the video, but since I do not understand the language in which it is explained, I was a little doubtful about the questions. Now I think I have it clear. regards
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] miarosan:
It does not work for me, I do everything according to the tutorial but when I get to the Chinese directory I do not see the new file with the numbers, only the 4key itz that I put. I have used version 5.1.1.6 of the I Themes that I believe is the current one, not the 4.0.0.1 that comes in the video. Could that be why? Thank you

Default setting - FHD.

I changed that to max setting.

Why Samsung decided not to use full screen potential in default settings? Can I expect bigger battery drain?View attachment 4577833
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
Yes, it will actually drain more. A good way to know how much you can save being on fhd. Set to max, then go to battery settings and choose any of the other two battery saver mode, next to each"setting" it should show how much time you save if those are toner off. It should show screen resolution, Bluetooth, background data, brightness, and more.

I use that only as a reference to see how much juice I can size based on the settings I have turned on.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bat0nas:
Thanks.

Just did some comparison of different saving modes changing screen resolution and in my case FHD saves 7 minutes of battery time compared to WQHD.

So it doesn't make sense using lower resolution. It saves some battery but not that much to sacrifice the main part of the phone (the gorgeous screen).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
Well when you factor in screen brightness, that 7 minutes can jump to 45 minutes easily depending on if you're going outside and such. In my Note 8i used to run fhd with a 445dpi. Smooth and crisp and looked like wqhd as much as possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] teegunn:
I've never seen a noticeable difference on my Note 8. Ran it for a week on mid level resolution, saw no difference in battery life so I turned it back up to the highest resolution. Each to their own, but I don't think the difference is enough either way. Run the one you are most comfortable looking at for icon and text size.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Anyone know why Samsung lowered the dpi compared to the n8?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
What's it set to on the 9?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
I'm obviously getting senile in my old age. Was supposed to say PPI.

N9 is 516 , n8 is 521.

Was thinking they'd be increasing it for VR sakes?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] nathasnajperowa:
Note8 screen size 6,3 inch, note9 - 6,4 inch.

A bit bigger display, same resolution like old 1440p makes this insignificant difference
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jimv1983:
It's done to prevent battery drain. Increasing it to full resolution won't make any noticeable difference in image quality. As far as battery drain it's really hard to say. The display will always be displaying the full 2960x1440. It really a matter of what uses more power: 1. Having the GPU render all the possible pixels or 2. Have the GPU render fewer pixels but have to upscale the image to the full 2960x1440. I'd be surprised if the difference was really that big. Although to squeeze as much battery life out as I could I'd probably set it to FHD just to squeeze out as much as I can. The full resolution is a waste anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] eduardmc:
Must be new here cause samsung has been doing this since the galaxy s8. It suppost to save battery but really ot has been show almost no different what so ever. The ui and games are rendered at 1080+ i feel a little smoother if u look hard and the phone doesnt get has hot.

I've got a SGS4 (I9506) with Cyanogen Mod 13.0 and CWM and I want to switch to LineageOS 15.1 which states I should use TWRP.

1. Does it make a difference whether I use CWM or TWRP?

2. How exactly would I proceed to replace CWM with TWRP?

The only answer I found while searching was to "just use GooManager from the Play Store"...

Thanks in advance
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PoochyX:
Simple you going to go on twrp and see if a offical twrp exist for your device and if not go on the xda page for your phone and see if any modified twrp bulids exist for your phone and then you flash the twrp image in your recovery and reboot recovery will pop up and now you have twrp I hope this works...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tm0ntana:
well, I'd hope this works too, because that's what I'd have tried without asking here.. but I'd like some assurance :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HemanthJabalpuri:
1. It makes difference by not booting into rom when you flash with cwm or older versions of twrp

2. Download twrp from https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=3700668719832239230 .... and flash it with odin..

or extract that .tar and you will find recovery.img then flash that .img with flashify app if you are rooted..

Hope this helps

[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
I've been all day trying to get a Micro SD installed on my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Go5 so I can move apps onto it. After bricking an old SD 32 GB card and buying a new 64 GB card I started searching for help here. I found information that said the card has to be formatted as 'Internal Storage.' This post described the process (the process that worked toward the bottom).

I'd been trying to figure out how to install the Android SDK on my Windows PC without downloading Android Studio in order to get the adb shell mentioned in that post set up. I found this post and this post on the stackoverflow forum, but just wasn't able to figure it all out. But it looks like I need the Java SE Development Kit 10 installed.

I was able to set up USB debugging on the phone though.

Can anyone help me out here and describe just what must be done to achieve all this?

Thanks for any feedback on this :)
[General Questions and Answers] sautom:
Not really able to help but i read many people advise against using SD card as internal storage. Most regular SD cards r not fast enough or durable enough to last more than a few months. Just sharing
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
I think you're right about that. I've installed programs on USB sticks that can be quite sluggish. Then again I've had a number of system maintenance utilities on flash drives for years that aren't and still perform fine. Then they don't get used for hours on a day to day basis.

I moved a number of apps on my old Galaxy Ace to a micro sd card though, most used was the Poweramp music player that's always performed well.

And I've got the card now, so I may as well try to get it set as internal and just see how it performs over time. Thanks for you feedback sautom.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you have lollipop or newer Android version, you should be able to use the "Adoptable storage" option.

Also, if performance is important to you, then you won't like this option, using sdcard as internal is slower, the only "gain" in using this is the system has more storage to use. There is no gain on performance, you actually lose there.

I don't recommend using sdcard as internal storage though. There are way too many issues that come along with using this kind of modification. A lot of times, the sdcard gets corrupted, then the real issues start when you try to fix it, usually, the device won't function properly, the data on the sdcard gets lost/corrupted, just to name a couple of the many possible issues. It isn't exactly "easy" to fix this when it happens, depending on what goes wrong, sometimes it can't be fixed.
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
I've read quite a bit on this and "adoptable storage" now, and agree that trying to use an expansion SD card as internal memory to run apps is a bad idea Droidriven. I still have a little over 1 GB left on the tiny built in 8GB internal SD Card memory, and have most of what I want installed.

I'm pretty green when it comes to Android, coming from many years with Windows and a tad with Linux. I see that with v6.0.1 Marshmallow, the OS began setting up a system directory tree on the 64 GB SD card when I installed it, and I'm able to set data folders there for apps like the camera. That'll be good for storing large camera videos and other media files.

One thing I haven't figured out yet though is whether or not there's any setting on a non-rooted phone like this Go5 that will allow me to transfer files directly into the 'Android' folder on the internal 8 GB card from Windows. I'm able to connect the two via USB or FTP and write files from Windows to folders on the 8 GB card like 'Download'. But I can't copy any files from Windows over to any of the writable apps folders in the 'Android' folder. I've resorted to copying them 1st to 'Download' from Windows, and then using a file manager in Android to copy files over to the 'Android' folder. I'm not used to such rigid file/folder permissions.

Does this sound like an issue that will require rooting? It'd make life a lot easier if that weren't the case. I'd think if I can write files to that 'Android' folder from within Android, I ought to be able to do the same remotely somehow.

Thoughts?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I always just use the ES File Explorer app, it lets me move whatever I want to/from Android folder.
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
Yes, from within Android. I'm using the free open source Amaze file manager that I can do that with. But I can't connect the Android phone to a Windows PC and be able to copy files from Windows to the Android folder on the phone. Just to Download, and maybe DCIM and the root of the internal 8 GB SD memory.

Can ES File Explorer access shared folders on a Windows PC? Amaze sets up an FTP server, but I don't see where it can access files on a Windows system.

EDIT: Seems it can: How to Access Shared Windows Folders on Android, iPad, and iPhone
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You should be able to do this with just Windows. Are you sure that you have your USB options set correctly? It should be set to MTP(file transfer).

When you connect the device to PC, you should see a USB icon in the status bar on the device, pull down notification panel, it should have a notification that takes you to your USB options.

Or, when you connect the device, you might get a pop-up menu on your device that has settings for USB options.

It varies from one device to another and one android version to another.

Do you have USB debugging enabled in developer options?

Also, if you do some reading about everything that the ES File Explorer app can do, you'll see that it can be used to transfer files to/from PC via more than a few options, including wirelessly/remotely.

It has several things it can do and different ways to connect when connecting/connected to other devices, including smart TV and others. It can also be used as a server or even be used to create a hotspot.
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
Yes Droidriven. I have set USB debugging and USB is set as MTP. I just discovered that Amaze does connect to Windows like ES File Explorer by running it's cloud search function. So far Amaze has done everything I've been told to use ESFE for. But Amaze is very light. I just used Amaze to copy a file over from a shared Windows folder to that Android folder on the phone.

I have Total Commander on the Windows system, but when I use it to navigate to an apps subfolder of Android on the phone, it can't see any of the files or folders that I can access with Amaze from within the phone.

So I'm half way there :) Just need to figure out how to get Windows to see and write files on this Go5 now.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I don't know where you're having issues, all I have ever done is just connect my device to Windows via USB then use the native Windows Explorer file manager to transfer to/from internal/external to PC/device. I've never had to do anything special or use any extra software on the device or PC to achieve this, plus, I've done this on different Windows systems.
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
I think it may be because this was a T-Mobile phone and that they may have disabled some functions like "adoptable storage" which doesn't seem to be present, as well as maybe setting permissions to prevent access to certain system folders.

I've even found that I have to change the extensions of some files like ini files to txt before I can drag and drop from Windows Explorer via a USB connection to just a few folders on Android.

It is a bit nutz. Rooting would probably solve the problem. But I'm not ready to go there yet. There may be an answer for getting the Windows > Android file viewing and writing yet. But at least for the moment I can copy both ways with the Amaze File Manager.
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
Okay, I'm back to considering formatting this 64 GB SD Card as internal storage. I would really like to record video to it, and with the internal memory limited to 1 GB that's left of the total of 8 GB from the factory, that's just not going to make it.

I got the Android SDK and 'adb shell' working on my PC, and started researching how to run commands that would target just the SD Card, and not the existing memory. The command 'sm list-disks' returns: disk:179,32

Is that the phone's internal memory, the SD Card's memory, or perhaps all memory on the phone? When I run the command 'sm list-volumes' I get:

private mounted null

public:179,33 mounted 38C4-18FE

emulated mounted null

I know 38C4-18FE is listed on the phone as being my added SD Card. So I'm hesitant to run the command I see people using to format their SD Cards: 'sm partition disk:179,33' I've wiped the wrong drives by mistake before using Windows diskpart when I didn't specify the right drive/volume. Can anyone clear that up for me?

I'm still hesitant to do this as it seems the phone will automatically begin to use the entire contents of the SD Card as space to run its OS. Might there be commands that would specifically alot the space on the card for writing data, and not for apps that would write and rewrite data there? Something I could create a folder in and point video recording apps to?

Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It's possible to partition the external sdcard so that it has separate partitions with one of those partitions devoted to internal storage and the other for whatever you want. I'm not versed in specific tools and methods to do it, there are many.
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
I'm happy with dedicating the entire memory in my sd card to adoptable storage space. I just want to know if adb is returning the right designation of my added sd card memory, and not the default internal memory.

Does the command 'sm list-disks' run from an adb shell that returns this for me: disk:179,32 mean that 179,32 is the designation that represents the sd memory card I added? Or if I try to use adb to partition 179,32 as adoptive memory, will I be formatting the default internal memory? What would be an adb command to return the designation of the small 8 GB default internal memory of my phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Have you tried running the command without the external sdcard inserted? That will tell you the designation of your internal because internal is all it will see, then insert the external sdcard, then you can run the command to see what the designation for the external is. Once you setup Adoptable Storage, there will be no difference in designation, the OS will see your internal and your external as one complete storage space, it sees external as if it were internal and identifies/labels it as such for all intents and purposes.
[General Questions and Answers] TakuSkan:
That is exactly the information I've been after Droidriven. That sounds like the perfect way to differentiate default internal memory from an SD addon. I read where after formatting/partitioning the sd card, installed apps will stay on the internal memory unless you opt for an ill advised process of moving them to the new space where they probably won't perform well.

How will the OS see the added sd memory after formatted as adoptable storage? My concern is that since this a cheap flash memory sd card, I don't want the OS to start writing and rewriting to this sluggish, slow flash memory card and just wear the thing down. Is there any way to specify the added memory as being data storage only? I only want the extra memory for writing video from the phone to a space large enough to hold multiple files
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
That's right.

As far as I know, it will see all one space with no way to "store here instead of there" that I know of. The OS uses the entire space as it sees fit.

That is exactly what it will do, this is the common cause of sdcard formatted as internal getting burned out, they aren't meant to do all that writing/rewriting/overwriting/deleting constantly. Frequent activity kills it in the end, hence, my original post warning against the downsides to using external as internal. Once external is incorporated into internal, if the external gets corrupted, the OS won't boot or operate, potentially making a terrible mess to get the device recovered but not the external sdcard, it's toast at that point, along with everything that was stored on it, in some cases, the device can't be recovered either, due to lack of software support or publicly available downloadable firmware.

It might be possible somehow, but it probably requires root and some other apps that use root to make the needed modifications to direct data where you want it stored. I'm not sure it's possible though because, as I said previously, the OS sees internal and external as one complete partition, with no way to "see" a difference between them because they no longer have differing disk designations.

In my honest opinion(based on my exposure and experience with various devices that have used this as an option and the issues they have had along the way), using external as internal is too risky and shouldn't be used. Oddly, Adoptable Storage works better on devices that have better hardware and plenty of internal storage than it does on lower end devices with limited hardware and limited storage, the lower, limited devices are typically the ones that end up having issues. I know, this seems counter-intuitive since the better devices don't need the extra internal storage and the lower devices do need the extra internal storage, but we both know that flash memory is very unreliable for continuous write/delete/rewrite and is doomed to fail.

Could you possibly consider some kind of OTG storage, wireless USB drive or some kind of "cloud" storage or FTP setup?

You should be able to direct your downloads, your pics and your recordings to the folder of your choice when downloaded/created instead of having to move them after. I'm not certain you need to do this just to be able to use your external to store data.
