Okay so I have a feeling there is a simple fix bit I've tried everything I know on how to fix this. I have ringtones on my memory card that was working find on my Evo 4G and now that I have my 3D it will not let me set them as a ringtone. It doesn't even show up in the list of ringtones like it used too. I can play them in the file explorer that I have but it the option to apply as ringtones doesn't work. the files are .ogg
So you've discovered root sweet how did you do it?

My thought is that the Development forum is thought of as a technical questions forum as well/instead. I don't really know though.

no, the development section, in very broad terms, is more about furthering our phones capabilities via roots and roms. not really a place to ask questions, unless those questions relate relate to rooting or roms you are making. in general, if you're unsure, the q&a section is where you should go before here.

I really don't understand why some people have to act like this. Everybody has to learn somewhere and it's disappointing to see that some people make it difficult. Along with making pointless videos.

The video is not pointless, if you watched it youd notice you broke an xda rule that's covered in the video. If you can't follow the simple rules, expect to get flamed.
Okay well like I said a few posts after I didn't realize I posted in the wrong forum and if you check Q&A I went there afterwards. So calm down and if this post bothers you so bad why don't you go stalk the other forums and attack all the other posts that should be elsewhere.

Get a file explorer like Astro and then create a folder on your sd card called "media" (no quotes). In that folder, create a folder called "ringtones" (no quotes) and put your custom ringtones in it. They should then show up in the list of available ringtones. Do the same for a "notifications" folder (no quotes).

Done that I have had that set up since I had my G1. I downloaded an app from the market that was a soundboard and when i hit apply my phone froze up and forceclosed. And it didn't apply.

I seem to have a problem with the Smart actions app - there's no location triggers to choose from and I don't see how you can add them manually either...
When I try to add a location trigger, I get a blank list with the text "Not any meaningful locations to display". Any thoughts on this?

Right... I dont see a green plus so there must be something wrong with my version of the app.
Do you think you could help me out and upload your .apk of Smart actions? Would be much appreciated!
After a fair bit of detective work, I found that I was actually missing the "SocialLocations.apk" app which creates location triggers... weird.
I pulled it from a /system dump on xda and problem solved!
many people have the same problem with smart actions location trigger: could you please upload the file so everybody who needs it can download? thanks
Sure, there you go! Push it to /system/app folder.

You have to make system RW and to do that in Root Explorer press on the RO text at top. IT will change to RW and hen you can do what you need.

I have MIui (Android 4.0.4.). Put this apk in system/app but it didn't help. Also the app didn't appear on my desktop (all programs)
Could smb upload the latest version of Sociallocation.apk?

Finally, restored social location from official ICS backup via AppExtractor. But still no "+" sign...
Yes I did. In the location setting for the specific rule it will show all your saved locations and moat likely they are all checked. Make sure only the location pertaining to the specific rule is checked and that should fix the issue

This was not the issue. I did not know it used social locations. The locations were created with that app frozen.

I have located the cursed CD-ROM.iso file that helps trigger the autoload and prompt for Verizon Media Manager; it's in \system\etc.
Unfortunately, an attempt to rename it didn't survive reboot from temproot to normal; the directory repopulated. Perhaps someone else can figure out a away to kill or freeze it (I don't think Titanium will freeze anything that isn't an application).
maybe Scott's CleanTool?
yeah deleting it through root explorer just forced my phone to reboot

I wish it were that easy, but see from his own thread this post. Reboot restores the file (I just noticed that myself after experimenting with it.)
I don't think anything written to \system (and probably any other root directory) survives reboot after temporary root.
Turn off autorun on your pc. You should because it helps protect against viruses.
The ISO itself is not the try problem. Its whatever app mounts the ISO.
Can't you disable Auto-Run on just that drive?

YEah, you can do that...
But the point is there is a rouge app out there that forces that ISO to mount. I want to find that app and kill it.

It behaves similar to the sandisk u3 drives, basically a partition disguised as a virtual device.
Guess no progress has been made on this issue???

I don't think there is much you can do but disable auto run on your PC. At least you won't get that annoying pop up. Con247 mentioned it earlier in this thread.
hello all,
I am looking for app. or any other solution which disable the camera.
Does anyone have such a solution?
Thanks,
htako
You could use Titanium Backup to freeze your cammera app. (Although i suspect it would cause some future force-closes)
If you only want to prevent camera usage for a non-advanced user, you could just hide the camera icon, using samsung´s touchwiz-embeded hide icons feature.
anyhow, why would someone want to disable their camera anyways?
Simple move or delete it from /system/app with something like Root Explorer...

As second poster said, freeze it, but it can be unfreezed...
But it's kinda pointless you do so from software, because other people can easily download and install another camera from play store... unless you can disable it under hardware level...

Use something like Root Explorer or similar file manger, navigate to /dev , there is a file named "exynos-mem" , long press it, choose permission, and uncheck all box
See screenshot
I DO HOPE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND TAKE NOTE OF ITS PREVIOUS PERMISSION SETTING IN ORDER TO RESTORE CAMERA FUNCTION , OTHERWISE YOU WILL DISABLE YOUR CAMERA AND WON'T BE RECOVERED EVEN YOU FLASH NEW ROM UNLESS YOU CHANGE IT TO THE RIGHT PERMISSION. AND I AM NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBLE ABOUT THIS!!!

Do you familliar with apps that control camera dis/en?
the solution you recommended seems to be irreversible
It shouldn't be irreversible. Go back to the file long press and select the boxes same as last time.
You're only changing permissions, once back to how it was, this will bring the camera app back.
