Title pretty much says it ... I just want to be able to write to my SD card again. I tried TowelRoot which boasts a one-click root, my phone isn't supported. I'm just looking for the simplest root, I don't need to change from Stock ROM. I do appreciate suggestions.

I have Walmart Family Mobile, and I've also got a SGH-M919 that is unable to get a GPS lock. I want to return it and I'm very much wanting to be absolutely certain that it is in a state that will be acceptable to Walmart Family Mobile. So far, I have: I have used Odin v3.07 to install TWRP...

I rooted, installed a couple of ROMs with TWRP, due to problems with those, I reverted to a backup. Since then I can't get a GPS lock no matter what I do. Up until I rooted this week, the GPS worked fine. It's hard to believe it's a hardware failure conveniently timed exactly when I rooted...

This is an intermittent problem that is happening on and off since I rooted yesterday. Battery drain is much faster too. One article I read said to replace your SIM card, or just remount it. If anyone has ideas or troubleshooting help, fire away, thanks

Is there a guide, or a known method for upgrading the firmware on a SGH-M919 while rooted?

There's a nice list of ROMs in the All Things Root guide, but I'm not getting the information I need to make a real choice. I need functionality, long battery life, and nothing unnecessary slowing down system processes. I do not need pretty lock screens, panoramic wall papers, widgets to make...

Walmart Family Mobile is "powered" by T-Mobile, and when I boot my Samsung Galaxy S4 there is a T-Mobile splash screen with no mention of Walmart. My question is, can I safely root this phone using the T-Mobile root instructions, or do I need to be aware of any special instructions because of...

I ask this after my Sandisk 32GB Class 10 ULTRA started causing very regular "SD Card Unexpectedly Removed" errors. I switched back to a Sandisk 8GB Class 2, and all the errors have stopped entirely, I don't believe in the coincidence. So, to further explain, I'm looking for advice on which...

I was wondering if I could catch the words from the wise about something. I know exactly jack squat about the stock apps and ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S4 for T-mobile, or any Samsung phone, I've never owned one before (still waiting on it to arrive). I'd like a little help deciding if root is...

I'm running Negalite's DEODEXed stock ROM, and I'd really like to ix-nay the three separate splash screens that run at startup. Is there an app that does this maybe, or will I have to flash another ROM?

On the subject of unbricking a hard bricked HTC EVO V 4G ... mine freezes at the same part of the boot up welcome screen every time. Once this happens the only way I can find to re-start it is to pull the battery. It happened when I was attempting to flash the stock RUU (using 4EXT) after...

Hello everyone I have a question I have a headphone set with microphone and it has a button attached what the button does is mutes music or plays music if it's already playing and also will optionally if I'm getting a phone call while listening to music if I hit the button it will answer it or...

Two issues with e-mail notifications ... They're happening, and I can't turn them off, dammit. I'm using the standard Google Mail app. And also, it seems that my notification and call ringtones keep resetting to Default ... haven't figured out when it's happening yet. :confused:

Are there any reasons why you shouldn't leave this app on auto-update?

I was wondering if anyone knows the answer to this from personal experience. I'm finding a lot of case choices for the EVO 4G LTE but practically none for the EVO V 4G Are the cases interchangeable between the two?

I've rooted an LG Optimus V before, but either a few things have changed since then or I'm forgetting something. Either way, I have curiosities and concerns that I hope someone could clarify for me, essentially, break it down into layman's terms for me. I'm looking at two different ROMs...

I rooted my LG Optimus V that faithfully served me for a year and a half with help from this forum. I managed to drop my V someplace, so I now have an excuse to upgrade :congrats: I've got an HTC EVO 4G (for Virgin mobile) on the way Now here leads to my question. When I bought my LG...

I've tried several keyboard apps, and Swype is working best for me For some reason I can't get Swype to remain the default. It switches back to the Android keyboard whenever I reboot the phone, and also whenever it seems to feel like it. While I have the ear of the knowledgeable, I have other...

I'm having a problem with SlideIT where it seems to be stuck in "ABC mode" which essentially means no swipes. There's no option for "ABC mode" in the Settings, so I'm stuck. Help. Are there any alternatives to Vlingo (the voice recognition app) ? For some reason, my preference for which app...

the Optimus V is my first smartphone, and thus I've got nooberiffic questions for the experienced folks. I'm new to smartphones, but as for most all other PC tech subjects, I'm already familiar with, which is why I feel like I can read all the instructions and manage to root and flash a custom...

I just got my V a couple of days ago and I'm new to Android entirely. The term 'root' as I understand is being used to mean taking control of the system files that run your phone by editing them. I know that doing this will allow you to use different apps and delete the crap apps that come...

'allo, just getting my new Optimus V set up. I have all Vibrate settings set to Never and unchecked (there's two of them that I can find), and yet still when I unlock the phone, I get a little vibration I search far and wide to find a solution myself before I go posting a help thread, and I...
