SDCard Issue - Incorrect Size with Root - Help! - Verizon LG G4

Now that I have root access I am having issues with my sdcard I received from LG. When I try to backup my phone using Titanium backup I get a message that my sdcard has insufficient size to complete the backup. When I view the properties via root explore it only shows a size of 2.3 GB but the internal device storage program shows I have 27.41 GB available. I have reformatted the sdcard via Windows and the LG erase sdcard feature but I still have the same issue.
Does anyone know I can fix this?

I don't have that problem, but Titanium Backup says my sdcard is not writable. System and Root Explorer have no problem writing to it.

Here is how I got TiBu to write to the external_SD:
Edit the file at:
system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
to add <group gid="media_rw" /> in the following location like so:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>
Save the file or copy it back to the original location overwriting the original and reboot the phone, TiBu will now show folders on the external SD card as writable.

I will give this a shot and report back.
Edit: This worked perfectly!
Thanks!
Doug B.

Just search sd card kit Kat fix in the market it will fix it for you

Custom internet background

Hi can anybody pls tell me how to get the original internet background back to replace my operators custom one...

I can still see the 3f00cd2f_manila, and 7d3f1247_manila files, the original ones but they arent been used. I cant seem to find the one being used by my phone. (operator internet pic)
And editing the 27c65cbd_manila, doesnt seem to work, or perhaps I have done it wrongly:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<InternetPortal>
<IncludeUserFavorites>True</IncludeUserFavorites>
<Banner
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\7d3f1247_manila"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\3f00cd2f_manila"
Width="480"
Height="215" />
<OperatorLinks>
<Link
Text="YouTube"
Executable="\windows\youtube.exe"
ImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\youtube.qtc" />
</OperatorLinks>
</InternetPortal>
Btw, when I first viewed this file the paths were these:
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\(....so on and so fort)\"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\(....so on and so fort)\"
See the actual path used by below the youtube link:
ImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPort al\youtube.qtc" />
I can't seem to find this folder, did everything enable to view operating system files, even used Total commander...hope you guys can help.
Thanks.
Hi,
Not that I really know, but I think the path should be "HTC\Assets..." not "\Windows\HTC\Assets..."
ie. remove all of "\Windows\" including the slashes....
Let me know if it works...
Cheers

[HOWTO] Enable quick app switch view for Mango Emulator

I have found a way to enable quick app switching (or what ever it is called) in the Mango emulator. It seems to be a little bit buggy but it works. Here is a screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here is the how to:
1. Press [Windows]+[R]. A "Run" dialog should appear.
2. Now type in "notepad %programfiles%\Microsoft XDE\1.0\WM7_Skin.xml"
3. Find
Code:
<button
toolTip="Back"
onClick="0x3B"
mappingColor="0xF7941D"
/>
and replace onClick="0x3B" with onPressAndHold="0x3B" so it would look like this:
Code:
<button
toolTip="Back"
onPressAndHold="0x3B"
mappingColor="0xF7941D"
/>
4. Now start your emulator and press and hold the back button
Thanks but Why don't you just hold f1 button?
I didn't know about F1!
This does not work for me. I have the Mango emulator but the folder you said to that the .xml is in does not exist

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
maybe you got windows 64 bit
then replace %programfiles% with %programfiles(x86)%
so the path then should be C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\WM7_skin.xml

It's messy, but you could try the registry.
Run regedit (hit Start or Win+R, type "regedit" without quotes, hit Enter, approve UAC prompt).
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
Edit the strings in the relevant registry values, such as "My Pictures".
Log out and log in again (or just restart).
I can't promise it will work - your error is weird and I've never seen it before - but hopefully it will.
Yeah it worked ! I had to do it ten times after removing and re-insert the SD but it finally worked
thank you !!

[Q] Help on Missing Files and Folders

I have noticed something weird with my device. When I connect my device into a computer or laptop running on Windows 7 and then view the contents of my "sdcard folder" or the /storage/emulated/0/ directory, there are some files and folders that can't be seen.
Those files and folders, however, can be viewed in an explorer app within the device such as Root Explorer or if I access my device from my computer through SSHDroid using WinSCP or command terminal like Putty.
I'm attaching a screen shot of what it looks like.

}
Do anyone here knows what's the issue in here, what caused this, and a way to fix this?
I'm running on stock rom 6.0.1 build number MMB29V, and my device is rooted.
Thanks in advance!
open Media Storage settings
clear data
reboot
@{fd}ware, I had the settings in Windows correctly. I learned from further reading from other sources that this isn't about the Windows Explorer settings. It was about the media storage rebuilding or refreshing.
Just like what @k23m responded, I have to clear media storage data and reboot the device to rebuild it.

(GUIDE)How to get more storage to install apps/games for galaxy y duos and galaxy y

Hello my friends. I was in DZB'S Blog and i found a way to have more storage without link2sd plus or link2sd at all!
Things you need:
Root explorer.
SDcard.
Kernel that supports EXT2, EXT3 Partitions.
This is what link2sd does to link apps to the EXT2 partition but this is better.
Things that i recommend:
I Recomend a sdcard with at least 4Gb or 8GB Of storage.
I used a 32GB Class 4 sdcard and it is verry fast to load app.
Steps:
Create a EXT2 Or EXT3 Second partition using CWM Or a PC Running a disk manager program. (backup your data before creating the second partition)
Go to /data and find folders /data/dalvikcache and data/app and /data/data.
Now copy those folders /data/app /data/dalvikcache and /data/data to /sdext partition.
Now select folders one by one in sdext and select option link this to the /data, if it ask to replace the folder, replace it.
Now repeat the 4ยบ step to the rest of the folders.
Reboot the phone
in the end you should have a storage information like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
