[IMPORTANT] Lost all folder content - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
not really a bad problem, just wondering if some guys have experienced also this thing. I did nothing, just using the phone (gaming, calling etc, no software installation) and suddenly (not after a phone reboot, just in runtime) the contents of my "desktop" folders (in touchFlo) were lost.. is there any way to restore, anyone knows which file/db is linked to this?

Hey,
I have reported this problem to HTC before they released the new ROM and it has been fixed by them. Just update your ROM if you have not done so. The problem occurs when you change the scenes. Folders loose their contents.

[Q] NC Browser.apk

For reasons I'm too embarrassed to admit (ok, ok, I'm a moron and ow'ed without backing it up first), I need the stock Browser.apk that comes with the NC. Anyone happen to know where I can get it?
Thanks a million,
-LB
Man, loosing the ability to browse reduces this thing no next to nothing..
Here ya go... but you should just install Dolphin instead
I don't suppose anybody has the stock 'Games' apk's like Chess, Crossword, Sudoku or whatever else came stock with it?
my nC factory reset itself and now they are missing.. yes, it had an 'authentication error' when I tried to access the b&n default Home screen and said 'Your device needs to be reset', then it rebooted and performed a factory reset on itself.
Oh thanks! That worked perfectly. I have some more cleaning up to do, but at least I can browse now...
Thanks again!

Standard Games
Here are the three standard install games. If you lost all the standard software which was loaded in the /system/app directory, someone will need to create a zip file.

[Q] New Indian firmware.. V10C

A new official LG India firmware has been launched, V10C. it's on android 2.2.1 and gets 31fps on neocore. So I guess it's the same as the V10E that people are describing.
The SD card still behaves weirdly, not sure about unmounting since I've not made any calls. Overall, the system has become noticeably slower. Would it be safe to roll back to V10B using the KDZ updater?

Yes, you are right. It's hard to even root the handset.

Try the optimus prime-v2, its fast and will meet your requirements. SD card problem is rare in it and the entire firmware sits on SD card, so you get a lot of free memory.
Not dev thread.
Moving to general.
Cheers
Ok I tested it out.. this firmware is quite horrible and it did not fix anything and the phone has become really slow in every way. I'm reverting to V10B for now, no choice. Hope all goes well.
I have strange problem after upgrading my p500 to v10c. it stopped notify me for any incoming calls. even vibration is not working in the silent mode. But the called number listed as missed call. pls somebody throw some light on this issue.
How to downgrade from v10c to v10b?
Sluggish and useless
Seemed like LG rushed this update. The device becomes too slow and sluggish. Upgraded and downgraded after 2 hours. Rooting through conventional means is broken.
Not upgrading. My P500 works fine at the moment with the older Firmware.
Any idea how to remove the crap apps they have pre-installed ?

Root and remove unneeded apk(s) and their corresponding odex files from /system/app using any root supported file browser like root explorer. Before doing this you might want to clear data. To cleanup left over odex files also remove from /data/dalvik-cache. You can cleanup this entire directory, but you would have to reboot for odex files to be re-created.

hi, I bought this phone two days back. I want to ask that if I follow your guide to remove some crap applications, and then if in future I do a factory reset, will it create any problem?
Hello
Has anybody figured out a way to root this latest firmware?

I couldn't figure out how to install that. The optimus prime post is not very clear about the steps.. it seems to be linking to other posts which aren't too clear themselves..
I am still on V10b, so do you guys strictly suggest not to upgrade to V10c?
Almost everything is fine for me with the current version, apart from one one strange problem..
The bulk SMS received do not get grouped properly. Bulk SMS 'from name' are usually in the format XX-XXXXX, now what happens is.. if the number of characters in the 'from name' of sms after '-' are same (whatever be the name), they are grouped together in the same thread.
This happens only with bulk sms which has name in above mentioned format, all other sms are grouped properly. Also, this happens in every sms application i have tried including the default one.
Hope i was able to explain it properly. Anyone else facing the same issue?

Energy HD ROM without radio

Hello every one,
This is my first post here but I was trying to search Google in general and especially xda-developers but didn't find answer.
Ok, so I have new Galaxy S 3 from Polish provider Plus GSM. I rooted it and changed ROM at the beginning. I started with ENERGY HD 2.0 because it looks nice - and it's actually very good ROM imo, well done DakiX.
But one thing - why I can't find radio in it? I know, this might sound strange, but there is no radio. Yesterday I tried to change ROM, this time to MIUI Rayglobe. As you may probably know it has plenty of options before installation and there is one to install radio. I did it and it was working as charm so there is no problem with my device (as I hard some phones in US doesn't have this function at all).
Is it just my, I'm doing something wrong?
Thank you for any help and understanding.
Regards from Poland and best in 2013!,
Bartosz.
LOL. Move FmRadio.apk to system/app

That "lol" is because it was obvious and I should know it?
Everything is working great, thank you very much!
So, apparently not everything is OK
Like you said, I directly copied FmRadio.apk to system/app using root explorer. And Radio FM icon appeared in application screen.
I turn turn it on easily - no prob. Please check the attachments.
But after turning it on with a button - after couple of sec it's closing and I got notification "Radio FM application was stopped":
Strange fact - I can still hear noise in headphones, even after this error!
So I tried to reopen radio, but all I get is black screen and same notify after 5 sec.
I know this is weird, but maybe there is "another" RadioFM app? I really don't know what is going on here and why it doesn't want to work.
I'm the only one with such strange issue?

ThL W200S - Flashlight Dimmed/Weaked Issue

Hi all
A couple a weeks ago i've downloaded a rom ported from Note3 to W200s @ needrom.com [W200S_N3.zip].
It seemed to be a nice one, until i tested the Torch app. As i opened the app and on the flashlight, turned the back of the phone to me, i watched clearly the flashlight dimmed before my eyes.
At first i didn't care much about it, just thought that when i flashed my twrp backup it would all back to normal...
But no... The flashlight is dimmed since then, despite all my attemps....
Here you so, some of my fails
- Flashed StockROM - Still dimmed
- Flashed all the W200S ROMs available - Still dimmed
- Edit the scatter-file to include hidden partitions
misc.img, pro_info, seccfg, expdb, protect_f, protect_s
Got a hold at another w200s, backup those partitions and flashed them all... Still dimmed
Right now, i'm running out of ideas...
But, before i send my phone to replace the flashlight LED, i'm creating this thread as my last hope...
I know there's other users out there that happend this, i saw their reports on the site...
However, the user who posted the ROM, deleted it. So the issue was silenced....
Plz, lets gather here and try to find a fix for this issue... if there is one...
Thanks
Admins:
I apologize if the thread isn't on the right place...
If possible, move it to the thread to its right spot, thanks
same problem
Hello
I have the same problem with the same ROM(W200S_N3.zip).
I have done the same things
-Flashed StockROM - Still dimmed
-Flashed all the W200S ROM's available - Still dimmed
I have contacted with the site from which I have purchased the mobile but they only replied that I should try another programm for the flash. The only thing that I need is to find the specs of the flash ion order to find the same one and replace it.

after reading your post i've made some research and came up up with this:
Kevin TeslaCoil @ said:
stackoverflow.com
HTC has an alternative API that supports this, however it's only on HTC Sense devices, and as of Gingerbread they've changed the permissions so it's only for their Flashlight app, not third party ones (unless you use root).
But on 2.2 HTC devices you can use it by writing a string to /sys/devices/platform/flashlight.0/leds/flashlight/brightness. This controls if the LED is on and how bright it is. For maximum brightness write "128\n", half brightness write "64\n". Easy to test from adb shell:
echo "128" > /sys/devices/platform/flashlight.0/leds/flashlight/brightness
And finally turn it off by writing "0\n" there.

So it seems to be possible to change the brightness of the flashled.
Of course this info is for a competely diferent device with yet another android version...
But i'm pretty that we should have a similar folder and file on our phones that can allow this... maybe where the flashlight app itself changed the settings...
I need your help to find out this file...
I'm using a root file explorer and still didn't find anything similar...
Lets try this one last time before throw our phones against some wall...

I have the same issue but mine doesn't work at all.
There's a /sys/class/flashlightdrv/kd_camera_flashlight and a /sys/devices/platform/kd_camera_flashlight.0 (which might actually be the same directory) but it doesn't have a brightness entry. I'm going to return my W200S for one where the flash works

All info wiped, strange app(?), friend's tablet

Alright, bear with me. I dont know much about this ptoblem bit Ill tell you what I know; Im counting on you.
Galaxy Tab 1, android is 3 I guess, but I havent asked so its not sure. The situation is the following. This friend of mine(woman, in her 40s) was doing something casual on the tablet, when an application popped up with the possibility of clicking "next" only, nothing else, unexitable; she clicked it once and then turned off the tablet. When she booted it up once again, all of the files were missinng. Minor cosmetic changes afaik, including the keyboard layout. I dont have more info, but Ill try and ask if you need something else. Tablet shouldnt be rooted.
Goal is the recovery of all/most files; PHOTOS are priority.
Thanks in advance.
