When i download a game, with APK+OBB file, i can install the APK, but when i try to move the game data folder to the Android/obb folder it doesn't work, it doesn't even display the process, i click move and then nothing happens, i tried with other apps, same problem, but when i connect the phone to the PC, it works correctly and i can move the folder, what can i do to make this possible directly on my phone? [not rooted, android 9] (i'm sorry for eventual bad english, i'm from Italy, and i'm still learning it)

I need to change between some sdcards, because I have a lot of videos and games that does not fit in only one sd...
But I have ap2sd, and I figure I need to clone ext partition to the others sd cards (phone hangs if I insert other sdcard) ...
So, that is the question... ¿How can I clone the ext partition of the working sdcard to the rest???
I tried Partion magic, and parangon, but the problem is that software aks to reboot to do the job, and out of windows the usb sdcard reader driver don´t work, and those applications can´t find it when reboot.
I tried ubuntu, but it said I am not (even I am root) the ownership of the files, and don´t let me copy and paste...
I tried G1 terminal with busybox, to copy /system/sd/ to another folder, but it said (even with SU) it can´t, even I see all apps and delvik folder and so on inside /system/sd/...
Any idea how can I do it??
THANKS

it involves commands that could be seen as a way to pirate other peoples work so the mods do not like to see them which i cannot blame them. i cannot recall the thread but i saw one where they edited a post that showed how to do pull apps.

Thats cool, I know how to do this. I didn't know if you had a different method that would be helpfull to others.
I would like to switch sdcards too. Anyone can help me?
I downloaded it from both links to make sure. When I go to install ZIP from SD card, I get the following message:
Installing: /sdcard/RevoltRom1.5.zip
Finding update package…
Opening update package…
E:Can’t open /sdcard/RevoltRom1.5.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I would post this in the Revolt thread, but it keeps saying I don't have permission to post there. Any ideas?

With you 100% there. No offense, but I think that rule is lame. Forums don't want you posting 'like threads' about a subject, yet you aren't allowed to post there. Maybe something that should be changed? Does it really take a user that has posted at least 10 posts to 'have experience'? I know what I am doing..
Ok, now that my gripe is out of the way... LoL
I get the same error. I think there is something wrong with the zip file. I downloaded directly to my phone twice. I am now downloading it to my computer that I am on and going to see if I can open the zip file there. If so, may try re-zipping and copying to my phone and seeing if that helps.
I will report back on result...

Thanks guys for the heads up!!! Will have fix posted in about 10 minutes!!! And Cybie, good job with figuring out the fix! CWM files can be sensitive sometimes lol! Since I screwed up, the new 1.5 post has an added bonus! Check out the Dev section!!!
He updated the OP with a working version guys!!! I also just released "Iconic HD Revolted" that will flash over 1.5.
Working now. Thanks All!
Glad I was able to help figure out that it was just a bad zip file. Sometimes those things just happen.

mtmichaelson,
You mentioned the need for a guinea pig for the V6 radio update. Worst case scenario is that it bricks my phone, correct? How likely is that to occur? If it does, is it irreversible?
If there is at least some way of restoring the phone, I'm game. If there's not, I may be acquiring a "throwaway" Revo in the next few days, which I'd happily donate to the Revolt cause. I'll get back to you to confirm that before the end of the week.

I'll go ahead and echo the sentiment of dislike for that rule regarding the Dev forum. I have over 10 posts and still can't post there; have I been blacklisted? 0.o

hi everyone ,
i just received a SMS from 66688 and the message written only samsung.mmg-en.com. So i went click on the link and it direct me to download link , which is this file Update_v9.jar (see attachment). i try to open it but it say "File Fail to open". anyone had any idea what file is this ?
Thanks in Advance
Uh, why do you try to open files which you think are suspicious? That's just plain stupid. You should research first and only THEN open the file if it is confimed to be safe.
---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 PM ----------
OH, and as for the file itself: Google does not return any results for "samsung.mmg-en.com", whereas ping reveals it actually goes to mimosa.mschosting.com, and there's only the default Apache-installation webpage there. That should already be more than enough of a sign that you should not open any files whatsoever from there.

It's extremely reckless to do what you've done. You get anything from unknown sender, you delete it that minute. Don't even open it.

I had previously found the S voice APK on Google, they never worked, always CTD on start, just had the idea to make it a system app and it worked so happy, happy. 2nd I am not looking for the AT&T app I want the Samsung car mode app, which is not on the playstore and I assume is hidden on the Galaxy store like the S voice app.

Install a launcher, Nova or Apex both work. Add a shortcut (system shortcut not apps) choose a setting short cut and look for Drive Mode. It also gives you the option to use Download Booster. Which AT&T has removed.
The drive mode is present in your phone, its only hidden cuz they want you to use their AT&T drive mode. Samsung one still exists! Hope this helps.
Are you running an S5, I am using a custom rom for my 900A, it lacks this function though even the nandroid backup lacks the required apk

Okay, here are the files from the /system/ directory of my own S5. Mine is the Sprint variant, however I'm confident that they're the same...
You CAN NOT flash this .zip in recovery, you must extract the contents and copy to the appropriate directories in the system partition.
Remember after you put them there, you must change the permissions for the folders and the files:
__________/rwxr-xr-x/ rw--r--r
/system/app/DriveLink/DriveLink.apk

No, you dont do that....
you do exactly what i explained....
download the .zip,
extract the contents to SD Card, (or ANY Download folder),
Once extracted, you will have simple directory, starting with "system/",
[ Now, you simply go thru the folders, and copy them from where you extracted them and paste into same folders in your phonephone's "system/" partition....]
Basically;
if you copy it from /system/app/DriveLink/DriveLink.apk on your SD Card,
Then you paste it to /system/app/DriveLink/DriveLink.apk on your phone...
Change permissions as i indicated earlier, as you copy each one,
When all are done, reboot. ..
[While booting back up a message will say something like
"Optimizing Application 1 of 3..."
thats a good sign that you did it right. ...]

Hi, thanks for the explanation, but I'm really new at this, and I need this application.
I do not understand, "Change permissions as I indicated earlier, as each copy"
that you mean this?, the only thing I see is that button "r-w and r-o" or you mean super user permissions?
------------read---------write---------execute
---owner--x-------------- x--------------
----group--x--------------x-------------
----Other--x------------- x------------
----set uid-----------set gid-------r sticky
hello ... when given permission to DriveLink, and drivelinkremote,
at 2 give them permission, but I did this to see if this well in owner, group, others, check all run.
restart, and indeed was installed when lit, but when I want to open, do not find in menu, and the car mode toggle of the active,
I get that you can not open out "car stopped mode"
Do you mean that the app is force-closing when it tries to open after toggling the 'car mode' quicksetting?

okay, hopefully this will answer any questions you have had or would have had...
I know its a little messy, but bear with me, I've never done a Screen Recording before...
Just read the instructions i posted above, watch the videos, and if you still dont get it, read and watch again...
remember to put things in the same folder paths you pull the from (the main difference between the two videos), etc...
Once all are done, reboot....

Okay I still don't quite understand the method technically even after reading the description.
The thing is if dev say clean flash(wipe data,system,cache,dalvik) is a must before installing a rom,etc.Then will this adk solution can be used instead of titanium backup?Because you wrote that adk more efficient than tb maybe I'll use this instead of tb

All you really need to understand are the setup steps. This module prevents app data from being deleted when you use TWRP's "wipe data/factory reset feature".
This sounds too good to be true, lol almost like a proof of concept. Can just binding the new dir with the old make it so there are no issues whatsoever? Will test later this week cause I romhop a lot.
My phone's storage is almost full.The thing i want to ask is if this procedure will need more data space inside /data/media.

No extra space is taken, as data is moved, not copied.
I installed this and it erased all my app data, ironically enough. Make sure you have a backup before installing.
After typing "adk" it finds all the apps, but after typing "." it lists every app with "pm: not found". After a reboot, the apps are not installed. Am I doing something wrong?

That's really f**ked up... same to me. I think there was no error on my side while following the "install-reboot-forget" process. Only the lib folders had been moved/binded somehow to the SD folder, no base.apks and no odex-blobs(?).
The result was a totally broken system. Sorry, but IMHO the Dev should not proclaim it that way as long as the script seems to be in pre-alpha ... All log files in /data/media/adk/logs/ are empty, too!
Really don't know whether LMAO or :crying:

Seemed interesting and installed
But I lose all app data ,
found no logs and nothing just like fresh install of everything
Keep a backup before trying this
I was on magisk 16.7 ,
Redmi note 3 AEX N
Do not install! I lost everything like everyone else. Pictures I just took on vacation of my kids gone. All texts gone. All app data gone. Wtf man. This needs to be pulled. I lost 3gig of data

Never ever try magisk stuff without nandroid or other backup in backhand.
I, like everyone else posting here, fell for this extension and lost all my app data.
I'm not sure if this extension is buggy or if we are simply too stupid to get it running but here is what I did:
install
reboot
forget (about all my app data as all apps seem to have lost their data)
I then opened a terminal, typed adk as instructed and am getting:
permission denied. Can't create /data/media/adk/logs/res_apks_verbose_log.txt: permission denied
typing su before adk does indeed give me a list of apps which seems to get longer every few minutes.
Maybe its still busy copying? I'll give it some more time. Not sure what's up though, are we supposed to wait for the ap to copy all app data over then do an initial restore? Or is it not correctly "linking" the apps to the new app data storage?
###edit###
I did not immediately remove this extension as I thought to give it some time. I then rebooted and its now hanging at the boot screen saying: "Starting up ... please wait" - this section usually only takes a few seconds but I've been staring at this screen for minutes now. I'll give it 30 minutes, maybe it is still busy copying all my APKs and app data to the SD card? I mean I was already wondering how this can only need one simple reboot to be ready...
I'll update this thread if I have any new findings as the extension description sounds quite logical so maybe we're all doing something wrong
Dev RECOMMENDED app data backup in first step even BEFORE INSTALLING it through magisk or twrp.
I think nobody is doing it

you're right he did. I didn't say I don't have a backup I only said the extension isn't behaving as advertised OR I don't get how to use it.
Also, he should change that sentence from "recommended" to mandatory if his app wipes app data

I have disabled the extension and rolled back my backup. I'm still wondering what went wrong here as the extension actually created the right folders on my SD card. Somehow the links seem to have been missing. I didn't dare try a restore via "adk ." as it was unclear what else could have gone wrong.
I would however appreciate some feedback and clarification from the author.
