Hey guys!
CM cleaner managed to wipe out almost everything on my microSD card that came with the VR. Is there a way to recover them? I've read that the content of the card couldn't be acquired through any sort of distribution method due to licensing agreements attached to some of the content.
This is such a bummer. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
First try sd card recovery software. There is many free ones.

Have you tried to contact Oculus Support? They might be able to help you.

I could drop box you the contents of my micro sd card, I have vr games saved now but could try and filter the unnecessary info out.

I went to Oculus forum and found out that I'm not the lone victim. Also, those who have had the same issue didn't get any help from the support team. Instead, they were directed to a page on how to back up files. Well I shouldn't have had this problem if I had done it. Guess it's too late now.
I'm able to restore most of the files somehow. Thanks.

That would be great. I think it's the only fix others did. I still have few apps that won't budge. I'll check which are those to save you time.
Thank you very much.

Thanks for this, the VR SD card appears to be empty or not read by my Note 4.
For some reason I can't download the entire .zip file as it gets interrupted around 4 GB. I have tried two times and it stops at 4,194.

I have downloaded all the content, thank you.
Where do I move the files in order for them to work? When I connect the devices it still say "no media found" or "insert oculus sd card for content"...
I'm frustrated at this point!

Copy the "Oculus" folder that you just transfered to the root directory of your microSD card.
Here is a link to this on Samsung's site:

Thank you, I figured out and got it working.
I'm not sure if it is the file but the quality of the 360 videos is not that good. I am wondering if it is my screen protector film!
Can anyone confirm if the 360 files look cristal clear? Thanks in advance.

ADP builds of Android do not have TMobile apps such as Amazon MP3. This has been discussed ad nauseum if you had bothered to search.

It's a protected app. If you need it that bad that I suggest you go back to an RC build and do research before blindly flashing whatever build of Android is at the top of the forum.

If you still have the RC firmware you can just unzip it copy the amazon apk out and install it into the adp the amazon works. I dont think anyone has the IM app working though
We should have an official rc update from tmobile real soon, which will have amazon mp3, myfavs, etc...
Just open a RC33 update.zip and extract the file from /system/app. Then you can install it by adb push.
Verified as working. I just added it to the app folder of Dudes 1.1 build and then did the update and it works just great. Purchased and downloaded a song to verify.
Here it Is
http://droiddeveloper.com/com.amazon.mp3.zip
enjoy it works for me...
Really Bad,
In Germany it cannot charge my creditcard... It has enough money on it.
I have the dude's 1.5 version, and cant seem to get it running. It forces closed upon trying to open. Any thought? It is saved to my SD in the app folder.
TIA

TY SolemnWishing, this is how I got the app on my SD card to begin with - yours is a very helpful thread for a n00b like me. Unfortunately, I was never able to get the app to open. I am not sure how I could have messed it up - pretty simple, I navigate to the app folder on my SD and click the apk file which proceeds to install Amazon MP3. No go.
If you have any ideas on what the problem might be I would appreciate the input.
Thanks again for your great tutorial
Hmm... I assume you deleted the .zip and renamed it to .apk, what firmware are you using?
I am using firmware 1.5. Yes I renamed to apk. I wants to work, just force closes before it fully loads. I also have this problem with oi music player. It used to work, now no longer loads. I wonder if my SD card is the problem. It is 8 gb, but I am sure only like a class 2 card.
Strange. I have JF 1.5 and installed the Amazon app the normal way for any app on the G1 and have rebooted several times. The app still works. I thought if you did not push the app to the G1 it would need to be reinstalled each time you reboot the device?
Well, I am pretty positive it was my SD card - after writing my post this morning I pulled the SD card and have not been anble to get the phone back since. This thread pretty accuratly describes what is going on...long story short, i think I fried my SD card and as a result am stuck on Splash 2. I have wiped several times...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=516874
uggg...all for mp3's!!!! any thoughts and lots of luck would be appreciated.

Ahh I did the same thing. Here is what you need to do, you will need to force format it. Windows will NOT detect the card, and it may even freeze your computer. Put the phone into another device, such as a palm pilot or another cell phone and format it from there. It shouldn't take very long, and when it is completed, it will likely say the memory card only has 5Kb or so of memory on it. NOW insert the card into your computer and reformat it into a FAT32 format (+Ex2 for apps to SD) and you should be good! Of course, you will need to reload all your files though. That will fix your SD card. As for your phone... you will need to completely reflash a new firmware onto it, as right now starting up your phone is looking for items on your SD card which it may need, which no longer exist.
edit: if that doesn't work, completely start from the beginning by flashing the dreamimg.nbh file for rooting.
I was able to reformat the SD card, lost all my backups of course, and had to reflash dreaming.nbh and start from scratch. No biggy, at least i still have my phone.
thanks for all the tips...once i get my card re-partioned, I will try the Amazon.apk again.
K
I got it to load - thanks for all your help.
K
No problem at all, glad I could help.
At some point, I had created a soft link under Copilot so that I could have the maps on my external SD card... and it was working great.
But now, after installing new firmware, I am trying to recreate that link, and having trouble doing so. The image shows that I have tried two different ways to create that soft link, and either way should work (at least on other platforms they should!). But as can also be seen, they do not.
Can some kind soul point out what I might be doing wrong here?
Of course, when I try this without 'su' I get 'permission denied' or some variant.
Thanks,
Edit: I apologize. This dang "improved" app is not properly uploading pictures. Will update when I'm home, since, apparently, xda-developers isn't friendly with IE7, which is all I have here at work.
Edit2: Updated with picture. Thanks for any advice.

Ah, thanks! But it seems I have done this. Ah well... not the first time I was wrong today.
Hi all, i'm trying since a little time to transfer a MKV from my pc to my 4X HD external sd card but each time i try, at the end of the transfer, there is a message poping up that tells me the file transfer failed.
The file is exactly 4.37go and i don't understand why it doesn't work, knowing that all my other xvid files are well transfered (from 700mo to 2go).
Any idea, buddies ? :laugh:

It's impossible, because all Android phones and tablets have FAT32 file system, what means no more than 4GB file.

Take backup before doing this. all apps installed after this will go to SD card
1. Get the Google Android SDK
- Unzip the file and place the folder onto your desktop or anywhere that can be easily accessed.
- find the platform tools folder (default, it should be : adt-bundle/sdk)
2. - Open the folder called " platform-tools"
- shift+right-click anywhere inside the folder and choose [Open Command Window Here]
3. Go onto your Android phone and select USB debugging
- Go to [System settings > Developer Options] and select USB Debugging (if the option is grayed out, unplug your phone first)
4. Enter in the following
adb devices
adb shell pm set-install-location 2
adb shell pm get-install-location
5. - if you did it right, the last output should say: 2 [external]

I'm experiencing problems with Samsung Gear VR.
I have Note for version SM-910F and I had to update the firmware over Odin to the latest version compatible with Gear VR. My stock firmware wasn't.
Everything went just right in installing the applications Gear VR asked for but after finishing installation and try to start the oculus app, it leads me to the tutorial over and over. I never finish the tutorial. The last thing that i'm allowed to do is touch and press the back button at Gear VR, after that it seems that it come back just like a loop to the beggining of the tutorial again.
Please can someone help me.
