WiFi FTP access files
I am a follower of the principle "Keep it simple and easy to understand for others".
I hope this tutorial to be simple, but surely access files will be more simple.
This tutorial refers to connecting your phone with your PC via WiFi FTP.
In this way there will be no need to use USB cable to transfer files.
You need:
- WinSCP (for Windows) - it is free, I use it portable, or another FTP application.
- Nalic.app.wifishare-2.5.5.apk - free
- Root Browser or X-plore - or anyway, a browser that can access the system files on your phone.
Procedure
Download Nalic.app.wifishare.apk and install it on your phone.
Open Nalic.app.wifishare.apk
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"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"
}
Download WinSCP and open it.
Enter the address and port, as indicated your Nalic.app.wifishare, (not mine).
And if the connection is done correctly, you will see the files on your SDCard.
If you want to access other folders on your phone, go to Nalic - Settings (upper left) - Stay in folder -> then click on Custom and choose a different folder. Then restart Nalic and reconect with FTP application.
Notes
The phone and the PC must be in the same network.
To access the system files, the phone must to be rooted.
If your phone is not rooted, you can access only external SDCard files.
If you can not copy the system files from your PC to phone, then you can copy them initially to SDCard and then with Root Browser (or other apk) Copy - Paste in the system folder.
I hope this tutorial to be useful.

About this guide
This is a quick and easy guide to get rid of the ROOTED status in download mode on G2 devices.
By doing this, you will return to the factory look of download mode with it showing UNROOTED.
Special Note
I have only tested this on my LG-D802. I do NOT know if this works on other G2 devices.
Therefore, please report back whether it works for you so I can add your device to the OP.
Requirements
LG USB Drivers (Easy to find & install - Google is your friend)
Your G2 must be rooted to use this.
USB Debugging must be enabled in Developers Options.
A software to extract the attached .zip file.
Notepad++
Instructions
Connect your G2 to your PC using MTP. At this point, USB debugging is not necessary. If phone is not recognized, then install/reinstall USB drivers.
Now head into PC - right click on your phone and hit properties. Copy this line as shown in this screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"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"
}
Download the attached .zip and extract the content to anywhere you like.
Open rct.cfg using Notepad++. Now delete SERIAL because here you shall paste the serial number of your phone which you copied earlier.
You must now enable USB Debugging in Developers Options. It does not matter if you had it enabled earlier or not.
Cant find Developers Options? Enter Settings - General - About Phone - Software Information - hit buildnumber 7 times and go back to Settings menu.
Open the file named install from the extracted .zip and give it root access on your phone.
Done. Download mode will now show UNROOTED.
OPTIONAL: You can now flash KDZ/TOT file if you want to fully return to stock. The status in download mode will remain unrooted after flashing a stock firmware.

LOL this was very easy and it works like a charm. I am on CloudyG3 and download mode shows unrooted
Hi everyone.
I've a Nexus 5 which runs Android 6.0.1 but I think the problem is not especially related to the Nexus 5, so I post here.
What happened ? Few days ago my phone crashed (I didn't use it) and was slow to boot up. So I tried to force the reboot by pressing the power button for 15/20s and it worked.
But 5/10min after I saw the "Select language" menu ... The phone performed a factory/reset by itself. I don't know why.
First, I plug my phone to my computer and I've seen that 26GB/32GB were already in use.
So I tried to recover my pictures and videos with many apps and the one which worked was "Undeleter" (5$) but it didn't recover all my data.
Yesterday, I wanted to understand what happened really. I ran "DiskUsage" which give me this result for /storage/emulated/0 :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"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"
}
How can I access to the "System data" partition which has a size similar to the storage space used before the crash ?
Regards,
Laurent
EDIT :
Finally I backed up all my data !
Indeed, files of my memory (/sdcard) before the crash was in /data/lost+found/#1351681/0
Then, I was able to move them to /sdcard and to copy the files on my PC.
How to ?
Make sure your phone is rooted and install a file explorer such as Root Browser.
Open Root Browser and navigate until /data/lost+found/#xxxxx [in my case, with a Nexus 5 it was 1351681/0]
(Look for the directory which corresponds to your previous "sdcard".)
Now, you can see the files but you can't open them. So move (not copy!) them to /sdcard (I suggest you to do that folder by folder).
Great, you've recovered your files ! But now, transfer them to your computer to prevent damages (I was forced to do that and remove files after to continue because the storage was full).
You can do it in connecting your phone to your computer and via the explorer or you can use adb (adb pull /sdcard/directory_to_move path_to_a_dir_of_your_computer)
I hope it will be useful.

Hello everyone...
I find the phone with the non-working tuch ..
From the recoveri mode I managed to make a complete backup of the phone on sd and generated these 3 files:
userdata_20160101_000035.backup
userdata_20160101_000035.backup1
userdata_20160101_000035.backup2
is there a possibility to extract the content ???
I would be interested in contacts.
I state the phone is a Majestic
Thank you.
recovering contacts is not easy. you need SQLite Forensic Explorer to view the database file. the database is separated in many different tables, each table has a column "raw_contact_id" which contain always the unique id-no of contacts (one table contains phone nos, another table contains names, etc... you must query tables by id).
once you have extracted the backup, the file "contacts.db" is located "/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/"
from the backup I made, how do I extract the contacts.db file ??
remove the checksum(s) and merge the files. you need linux
don't be scared, i will explain you step by step. first step: do you have linux? if yes, press CTRL + ALT + T this is the terminal where you can do it. if no, please download unetbootin and prepare a bootable usb stick. you can run ubuntu on your pc without installing. don't hesitate to ask if you need help regarding unetbootin

finally I was able to understand something of the terminal in place ..

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
"dd" does not accept wildcards. press <TAB> instead of * for word completion. you must type the full file name. remove the stars in this example code.
edit: i will answer in this thread, because this are linux basics. so lets open a "beginner" thread here, and leave the other thread open for more advanced questions. finally, your goal is to extract contacts, what we should not discuss in main thread
Hello everyone,
a) My guess is, it might a problem with the drivers. I installed some LG programes earlier, already deinstalled it... But, Maybe you know better how to renew the Android drivers on the Mac and get rid off the stuff which probably blocks me from having the file transfer function again.
b) do you know at least any other (free) Programe that uses ADB to connect the phone to Mac?
c) something I have not thought of... You tell me
Once it was possible to connect the phone to my Mac and transfer files with Android File Transfer. Now it is not. I tried several other programmes, none can connect to the phone via MTP (for file transfer).
When I chose not "data transfer" but "photo transfer" as an option in the phone, the Photo app on Mac opens and I could trnasfer photos - so it works!
But I need file transfer....
I have and try several cables. Phone works without any problems with windows.
The only thing works now for transfering files via cable is MacDroid, which can connect the phone via ADB insetad of MTP. --> Problem: it costs money (and why should it now work in MTP in the first place).
The phone generally is found by the computer:
View attachment 4950209
I use as OS "El Capitan". On the phone Android 9.0. Phone LG G6
Thank you!
PS: The phone even asks me if I want the Mac to authorize:

PS2: Macdroid works with the phone even in MTP Mode when Debugging is deactivated. So what is this... I do not get it.
Guys, girls, anybody, please give me a hint, think with me, tell me where to look for answers ...
Finally... I knew it was some ****ty LG Software... I installed all the LG Software I could find on their website. Plus some dirver they provided. And THIS time, I deinstalled them using their own tool. Now it works again...
I think I had installed something earlier and then just deleted it or something.
So in short, it was necessary do install and UNINSTALL the LG drivers from their website.

A good tool based on Windows batch commands. It has a few commands for now, (already 200 lines, but alright ...) but I will keep updating it and make a good release. It works for now, but not everything is correctly yet.
