if you have issues, please provide as much information as possible, so we can help you out. What ROM (stock/custom?) latest update? any modifications?
Anyway, stock ROM was quite buggy for the time i used it after a week or so. I recommend you backup ALL your data to PC or SD card and do a factory reset. Even better, flash a custom ROM like Lineage 7.x or AOSPExtended Pie on it. Im using this setup:https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78685847&postcount=72
and please dont call us to fix it, we're not motorola support, lol
peace!

Diamond camera problem

Hey guys of late i have started facing a problem with my diamond camera!!! after i click a pic all i can see is the busy cursor just keep on spinning !!! ad i get an error saying
" unable to switch to preview mode failed to setup the camera device"
(tried taking a pic using the contact photo option it works fine )
Bro dont panic this mainly happens when u r low on memory.
Just disable TF3d and then open camera and take pic.
And pls do not install anything on device storage, install everything in internal storage only.
And also install cleanRam app to free up ram.
And also uninstall all useless apps and then see if u get any error.
Camera needs atleast 40mb memory free i think, bro dont worry and ur problem will be gone after this.

Root Done. Cyanogenmod?

I've rooted so much and learned so much in the past month that I'd like to take that extra step. Opinions?
I'd like to try Cyanogenmod, but I've been failing miserably trying to put it on my device.
I've tried flashing it through this way: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide but I couldn't get ClockworkMod to reboot. Once I did get it to reboot I had a hard time loading or flashing Cyanogenmod because it kept saying that it failed to load and installation was aborted. What am I doing wrong guys? I'm following those instructions in the link to a T. I put the gapps file and the update cm 7.0.1 in the folder called the external_sd even though I do not have an external SD card, but I was guessing that's where the root of the internal memory is. Am I missing something? Is it really this hard? And is Cyanogenmod really worth it?
put the update/zip file in internal SD,not inside any folder.remove external SD card.now try flashing.

Couple things. When I connect my phone to the computer there is no folder that says internal SD unless the stuff that shows up with all the folders is the internal SD. I do not have a removable SD card.
Do I have to flash or wipe anything before I put the update/zip file on my phone?
Ok, successfully did it! I installed the cyanogenmod so I'll take it for a spin. However, there is one thing that I can't figure out. I'm trying to download all the Google apps from the market, but anything that I try downloading from the market it just stays in the downloading progress bar and nothing happens.
I installed the separate apk file gapps-gb-20110828-signed the same way I installed Cyanogenmod, but nothing. Can anyone help please? Also, I used the Navigation app a lot, but I can't even seem to find that one on the market...
Now it's working. Ok. Few questions for you guys. Any way to turn off an "LED notification" whenever I get a text message the bottom soft keys light up and stay lit up until I check the message.
Still don't know how to get the turn by turn Navigation application.
EDIT: How do you get Swype as well on Cyanogenmod?

I find that the stock keyboard is not the best. I've read that its predictive text and spell corrections is supposed to be good, but it looks like it's not picking up anything at all and it's not correcting any spelling. What gives?

i am now putting all my songs back on my phone and olso trying to install lg calender and memo etc..
calender is not working memo is working calculator is now working i have es file manager and i can play video's with that so not needed an videoplayer
afaik, you just need to push the apk and system file via adb, or move it manually with root explorer

Yes, you can.
Just push the apk and(!) the matching odex file to /system/app.
Make sure you got enough space left. I think we left ~15mb of free space for people to use it for whatever they want to include.
The SD Card warning means it didn't get mounted correctly. Did you add the external_sd folder?
Last but not least: As you now got your required 11 posts to post in the dev section please continue the further discussion into my thread over there.
what is an ICS lite verison? differences betven ics and ics lite version? thank You!
calendar widget,fm radio widget and google maps
sir tonyp,will the extra 15mb fit the calendar and fm radio widget as well as google maps? Will you also be so kindly to provide links? Appreciate it!
Does anybody know how to make whatsapp reading my Chat Backups? I'd like to use the rom but I cant because I need the Backups.

Chances are, they are probably gone forever. BUT, you could try these apps:
hxxps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bero.sdrescan
hxxps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.baloota.dumpster
I've seen reports of lost pictures coming back after a rescan. You could also check the .thumbnails folder to see if they are there, but they won't be the full-res photos from your camera folder. another spot to check is /sdcard/DCIM/Camera/cache. Do this on your computer or with a file browser on your phone such as Astro. Helium is a good app that doesn't require root to back up your stuff. I'd recommend using a backup program and set up an online storage solution using google+ or dropbox to automatically upload new photos you take.
A last resort, you could try using your PC to recover them as well using hxxp://www.recovering-deleted-files.net/android-data-recovery. I haven't used this myself and don't know if it's free or not, but there's a youtube video out there showing how it works. There's also another program called Recuva that you could try.
Best of luck. Let us know how it goes.

[Q] Really confusing SD card bug

Hello to whoever reads this thread, I hope you can help me.
I'm looking for help since I've been stuck with this issue for a week now and don't know what to do about it.
It all started a few days after finally getting a 16GB SDCard for my Note.
This sounds weird but I can't install all apps. I can install Facebook, Bacon Reader without problem, but apps like XDA or games won't install at all. The play store will just keep saying "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card"
I tried so many things that I don't have a clue if what I'm doing is actually useful.
Here is a few things I did to get rid of that problem :
- Wiping cache/dalvik, rebooting...many times.
- Flashing PA 4.0 Alpha again and again
- Looking for the "smdl2tmp1.asec" file in .android_secure and remove it (There's no file at all in that folder for me and I have no idea how people manage to see it since I can't really explore the root folder from Windows Explorer)
So, at this point I'm just tired of trying quick fixes and I motivate myself to do the following:
- Trying to go back to PA 3.99 RC2, but CWM is just going mad at me saying the zip file is not made for my device (status 7 error...)
- Updating CWM and trying to flash PA 3.99 RC2 after the first install failed. Fail again.
- Edit the update-script file from Windows to delete the specific "device" lines as stated on this thread. Fail again ? Fail again.
Some background info as I just thought about something that might be causing the issue.
See, Play Music for an incredibly stupid reason doesn't allow you to save music to an external sd card so I've been googling a lot and came upon that blog post giving a few tips on how to solve that issue. Maybe I f'ed up something in the process since I find that manoeuver a bit confusing.
More background info : I've been using PA since 3.69 and never have had any issue with it until that Alpha version but since nobody is reporting errors in the PA support thread it must be a problem on my side.
Oh, and while I'm at it, the loading battery animation when the phone is turned off looks really odd, like it's android from a decade ago and not the fancy one i put as the thread icon.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for I really don't know what to do anymore. :crying:
Also sorry for bad english.
FINAL EDIT : Oops. Found the answer by myself, thanks anyway
This bug is supposed to be fixed in the current/next nightly of omnirom.
Thanks for the answer.
So...there's no way to just fix the "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card" bug ? I don't really want to be forced to change for Omni...
