I cant move files from Internal and to External SD on my O2x . When ever I try the file manager reports the move failed. I have tried with both Astro File manager, and ES File Manager and both reports its failed and cant do it.
Can someone tell me what the hell is wrong?. It doesn't make sense cause I can copy and paste between the cards, but have to delete the original which is rather tedious. I would prefer the move would just work and I suspect its something LG has ****ed up since it work on other phones >_<.
ES File has even got root access and still fails .
So does anyone have a solution that might work?
Same with me to. I use Androzip
Try using root explorer yet?

Well its an paid app so no. And ES File supports root as well and cant. Im not feeling for spending x amount of dollars on an app I am not sure will actually do what I want it to do. What if the developer does not want to issue me a refund?
I have this stupid bug too... on sgs
I have contacted the developers of es file and some others... they said we are going to check...
I impressed how irresponsible they can be, this is a basic function on file explorer..
Anyway only the build-in my files works for moving files, all others are trash, including root explorer.
Root explorer works just fine for me (moving files from/to internal to/from external).
Just downloaded es file explorer and it did not work.
Any news on a fix for this?

Root Explorer DOES NOT WORK. I tried it and it while it shows no failure messages all my files remain in the same places and nothing gets moved.
I tried many apps and none of them seems to work. Right now I have Titanium Backup installed, but I can't find any app that seems to be a Tethering blocker. What would be some possible names for that app? Also is there any other stealth Wifi app out there that I can try? Thanks.
If you search before you post... you'd find a thread with the fix...

I tried freezing restartapp and resetnotify, but it still didn't work. if anyone knows which app I need to freeze please help. There are too many to try one at a time.

I downloaded that zip file in that thread and got the ext.jar file, but I can't seem to delete the ext.jar file in the /system/framework directory. My phone is rooted, and I have super user permission. Is there any way to trick it to allow me to delete it? Thanks.

get a root file browser and mount system r/w then it should let you. i personally use es file explorer and enable root settings
How do i mount system? I want to change the bootanimation.

You can mount system through recovery. It should be easy to find.
But to change bootanimation just delete the original .zip and place the new one there, set permissions and done.

Which ROM are you using? The location of the bootanimation will vary depending on whether its like stock, or sense, or added bootanimation by dsixda ROM kitchen (you get the idea here).
A file explorer app like solid explorer or es file explorer lets you mount /syste m
im using the es explorer but i can't see any system location.

I would actually recomment root explorer for this simply cuz it doesnt have so much eye candy and everything is easier to see.
But nevermind that,in order to go to the system files (not the SD card files) you have to go to settings and tick all the boxes under root settings (or something with a similar heading). Then take the bootanimation you want (copy it).
The bootanimation for the ROM is different depending on the ROM. On AOSP and AOKP ROMs its in the /system/media folder. Simply rename the original bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip.bak just in case you want to change back. Paste your bootanimation and rename to bootanimation.zip. Then set the permission to rw-r-r.
I dont know where the bootanimation in Sense ROMs are though but the process is still the same.
Bootanimation locate in system/customize/resource
Hi,
I have updated my HTC One to android 4.4, sense 5.5 (latest update from HTC). After the update I see that the emoticons in the Google hangouts app have been changed to HTC emoticons.
I was used to the emoticons in my hangouts app and now they have been changed and I am very disappointed.
Is there a way to get the Google emoticons back? I don't like the ones that HTC provides.
I have attached a screen shot.
If I could also change the emoticons/emojis to Google system-wide I would be more glad.

I think this should either be provided by Google Hangouts app or we need to use a custom framework.
Finally figured it out myself and thought I should share! You need root for this to work.
Get a file browser app that can browse system files. I suggest Root Browser or ES File Explorer.
Navigate to /system/fonts/
While in the fonts folder, you should see a font named "AndroidEmoji-htc.ttf" and a "AndroidEmoji.ttf".
Rename "AndroidEmoji-htc.ttf" to "AndroidEmoji-htc.ttf.nothankyou" or whatever file extension you prefer. Just make sure it's not .ttf or any other font file extension or the system will still read it.
Doing this will make the system fall back to "AndroidEmoji.ttf" which contains the hangous emojis.
Reboot and you will see the results.
Enjoy!
Okay, so you changed the Emoji in your conversation to match your keyboard. What if I wanted to go the other way ’round and skin my keyboard Emoji to match what’s in the conversation?

Well... I don't know. In my post, I basically just remove the emojis that HTC put in the Android system and let it fall back on the original emojis in KitKat, which is the same as the Hangouts.
If there is an emoji font inside the whatsapp APK, then it might be possible to rename it to "AndroidEmoji-htc.ttf", and put it in /system/fonts/. This way, your phone would think it's loading the HTC emojis, but in reality it would be the whatsapp emojis. Might be possible with any emoji font pack actually.
thank you this worked perfectly!

Obviously I have not rooted yet. What type of root does this require to have permissions to do this? Thanks in advance.

I have a rooted M7, I've granted ES File Explorer SuperUser, and I get "task failed" when i try to rename it, and "Read only file system" when I try to delete it. Nothing is working
EDIT: Using Root Explorer instead of ES File Explorer worked. Not sure why, but I'm glad I know Root Explorer will work for me.

Just run the weaksauce root for your HTC One M8 guys and you'll have no problems following the OP's instructions- literally takes 1 minute to root, 30 seconds to change the emoticons and you are good to go!
I rooted on my first day picking up the M8 and it's been awesome since

Just an FYI for anyone else who gets the "read only file system error" in ES File Explorer. There are actually two steps required to configure ES to be able to access and modify files on the system partition.
Step one, you've done, is grant ES superuser access. But all this does is give ES read-only access to the protected system partition. In order to actually make changes to any files on system, you also need to enable read-write access to system.
Step two, In the same place you enable superuser access in ES, you can tap the option to open up another menu, choose Mount R/W, and then select /system.
Now you will be able to actually modify files on the system partition. This is essentially what root explorer does in the background, it just starts up with system mounted as readwrite. But since ES can be used by users without root, it defaults to read-only for system, and must be specifically configured for read-write.

Well, there's no way for a non-root device to modify files on the system partition. This is what root gives you, access to modify /system. So without root, there's just no way to accomplish this modification. If the emoji files were stored on /data, then you'd be able to make some changes. But they're stored on /system, which the user on a non-root device is blocked from accessing.
A little background on the "why" this is:
If the user had full read-write to /system by default on a stock device, then any app in the Play Store or sideloaded could compromise your security and make unauthorized changes to your device. This is why /system is protected. By rooting your device, you are removing this protection. You the user are essentially taking on the responsibility to ensure that anything you install from that point forward is safe and trusted. If you install something and grant it root access, it then has access to every file on your device. Because of the very real security dangers involved with rooting, no device will ever come rooted from the factory, and no Play Store app will be able to access /system without being rooted.

Ah, thanks for this! I'm glad I was able to get it to work with root explorer before this, but I'm glad I know how ES works now.
Hello everyone
I just want to get feedback on something... I use Go SMS Pro, but people using hangouts that I speak with, because I use the emoji provided by the app (iPhone emoji), they don't get most of them, which is very annoying... has anyone faced this? Is this happening just because of the emojis not being integrated? (If I press the button for emojis on the app, I get iPhone' s emojis, but not if i use the SwiftKey shortcut...)
Btw, I tried sending about 50 emoji. Hangouts got 25... :S
