Playing Games Off USB Drive - G2 General

Hi So i recently got a LG G2 but unfortunately the 16gb version, and what was worst is that you are only allowed to used 10gb:crying:
So as i love gaming, listening to my favorite music and watching awesome videos, I needed a way to get more space to hold everything..
Eventually I came across an App called FolderMount, unfortunately you need your device to be rooted for this app.
You will also need a OTG microUSB adapter.. Not sure if this will work on all devices:silly:
Here is a step by step guide on playing games off a USB drive:
1. Install FolderMount, get it from play store
2. Install your game( I'm installing Fifa 14)

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Create an empty folder in storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/com.xxxxx ( blank sd data folder )
4. Copy the game sd data onto a USB drive and plug the USB drive into your Android device using an OTG microUSB adapter
5. Now open FolderMount and in the top right corner tap the "+" icon
6. You may enter the game name to make mounting a game easier.
7. By Source, select the empty folder created in Step 3
8. By Destination, select the game sd data folder on the USB drive
9. Check Screenshot_4 to see:cyclops: how it should look.
10. Now in FolderMount, tap the pin icon and wait untill it turns green
11. Finally enjoy your game:victory:

It works for every app, right?

For small apps it should be pointless but for apps that hold more data, it should work.

Where did you buy the adaptor? And how large it is?

Between 1-3 dollars.. its usually about 3-4 inches.

Awesome.. I have the 16gb version too. Thank you so much!

to select a folder you need to enter the folder itself. e.g enter /obb/com.xxxx(game data folder) then tap the tick in top right corner

Thanks
Thanks for sharing! May very well use this in the future.

3. Unzip this file and move it to the tab.
4. Now open root explorer you will see the .fontchanger folder inside it is backup folder, delete it and move the backup (unzipped file) in that same place.
5. Reboot tab.
6. open fontchanger and play with two strings

I found very nice app yesterday on Play store, its a FREE file manager with same or maybe even more functions than root explorer plus it has much nicer UI (I think). Its only beta but very nice to try. (it also have permission change etc).
Main features:
1. Two independent panels for browsing
2. Drag and Drop inside and between panels
3. FTP, SFTP and SMB/CIFS clients
4. File sharing via FTP
5. Support for ZIP, TAR.GZ, TAR.BZ2 and RAR archives
6. Creating ZIP and TAR archives
7. Dropbox and Box support
8. Bookmarks
9. Root access
10. Indexed search, also available from the system (that means that you can search for files from the Google Search widget/app)
11. Detailed file and directory information
You can download it free from Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.solid.explorer&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInBsLnNvbGlkLmV4cGxvcmVyIl0.
this app was made by: Krzysztof Głodowski
downloading now, nice app.
Trying to use it but now can you set it to read write..... Every time I have selected a file to copy to system or data it gives error yet with root explorer it works..... Any ideas or help?
Thanks for sharing

Great thx but big menu. How can little menu?
I would download this but I was a sucker and bought root explorer. If only this was available at the time.
I don't see the option for changing permission. where is that?
and it doesn't ask for permission. I think ftp isn't working too.

After long pressing the file you want to change permissions for tap properties you will then see what the permissions are set to off to the right of that you tap change and a small box will pop up and there you can change the permissions.
I hope this helps and please click "THANKS"

[Tutorial]SensMe™ for unlocked bootloader using Mediago

This is a guide step by step to add SensMe data to song and send it to phone using mediago( there's another video on youtube , but it's quite old , and on xda there aren't any thread for this , only some post , so I've decided to make this simple/NOOB's tutorial
What you need:
Sony Mediago
A Xperia Sensme compatible phone
less than 10 minutes
First you need to move the songs to the pc!!
Next , open mediago , wait the refresh of the library(or if you see the song you want continue) , and then :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Select BMP , Tempo and Mood
Now you should see the 3 column ( I have the value because my songs have sensme , but you'll have anything here)
Now select the songs you want , and download the missing properties(wait until it finish download from gracenote)
Now Mediago should start to generate Sensme data(it's possible that it have enough information to generate without download data , you can see it if there's the heart icon near the library text)
If all go fine you will see values in the 3 column
For last , send the music to the phone by clicking the arrow( i've noticed that if the songs are moved while the phone is in mass storage mode , walkmann won't recognize that , so it's safier use MTP
In the phone you can see it :
thanks so much! love how ok option shows fine and the other on is "rip"
wat language is that

do you mean the language in the phone's screenshots? it's Italian(the red text it's the translation)
Many thanks for your guide. I don't own an Xperia, but a Desire with ported Walkman on it, and I'd like to use SensMe. I followed the steps you explained but I had to push music to phone while in Mass Storage ( I can't do it otherwise ). I have 265 songs on it, everyone right tagged, and only two songs appear in "Energic" channel. All other channels are empty. May I ask for your help? Thanks in advance.
Edit : found the solution by myself : just push to device while the device is in mass storage. It will write on sdcard anyway. Thanks for the guide!
wow that's very useful, thx very much
thank you!! so much

I am glad to see an alternative to Microsoft Files. Great work:good:
Interesting, didn't know about that one. I love using Total Commander on my Windows PC so it's definitely great to see it coming to Windows Phone. Definitely going to watch closely how it turns out to be in the final version.
Thanks for the tip

Root & TWRP with no PC

Hi!! I'm in vacations and I just bought my pocophone. I would like to transfer all my apps and data but I know that the only way of doing that is with a rooted phone cause there's no app that would do that, they only transfer the apk and that's it.
The phone had the bootloader unlocked but since I don't have a computer I can't find a way to install the twrp and the supersu directly from the phone.
I Google a lot but I couldn't find a way, is it possible? Is there any way of rooting (the whole process) without having a pc?
Thanks!
