28053 | Any way to boost Wi-Fi on Nexus 7? | My Nexus 7 seems to have poorer Wi-Fi reception than my iPad (1st generation). At home it is always able to reach the router, so not an issue. Occasionally when I am out the iPad will have reception when the Nexus 7 doesn't. I was looking inside the back cover, and it appears there are a few antenna built into the cover. I am curious if the Wi-Fi antena is in the back cover, and if there is some way I could boost it by attaching an external perhaps. |
312 | How can I install the Amazon MP3 app? | I have a Motorola Backflip running on AT&T with Android 1.5. I previously had a G1 with which I used Amazon MP3 all the time to buy music. However, Amazon MP3 doesn't come on the Backflip and isn't in the Market. Where can I find it to install? Also, is there a reason it isn't on the market? My guess was because AT&T wants me to use their proprietary app. |
51362 | Share mouse and keyboard between multiple androids | I'm new to android but I have an application in mind that I'm willing to work long for: setting up three or four android tablets upright, as if I were looking at a four-monitor desktop pc, and use one bluetooth mouse and keyboard between the four of them. Where should I start. I'm sure that some combination of android packages must allow me to do this... :) |

80732 | Disable DropBox's PDF reader | I have been seeing recently that DropBox opens PDF files stored in it through its own reader. I would like to open all my PDF files through Adobe, no matter where their location is. I do not want to use this extra functionality provided by DropBox. How can I disable this option in DropBox? I could not find any option to disable PDF viewing. Is it a feature that must be added in future by DropBox? |
61059 | Problem with downloading files from play market and websites | I have nexus 5 (android 4.4.2, TeamWin Recovery Project, root). Recently, problem with downloading files from play market and websites appeared. I see infinite downloading in the play market. I see infinite work of the donwload manager process in the action bar, when I download some stuff from website (for example, when I try to download something from my HTTP local file server). Sometimes I can solve my problem to restart smartphone, to clear data/cache play market app and download manager procces. But the problem occurs again. Also I tried to boot into recovery, clear cache, fix permissions, and reboot. These actions have fixed my problem, but the problem appeared again.  `(Click on image to show larger preview)` |

61057 | How to check if a phone can be rooted? Can the Fujitsu Arrows 201F be rooted? | I want to have a phone that I can root. Today, I'm trying to purchase one. I want to know if my phone can be rooted in advance. The selections of phones from my provider, Softbank, is limited and the phones are all outdated. But I have a discount, so I want to get one of them. The Arrows 201F is the phone with the best battery life, so I want to get that one. But first, I want to know if it can be rooted? Can it? And if not, how do I check the other phones at Softbank to see if they can be rooted? |

61051 | How to setup an Android tablet for use by an older person | I consider myself fairly competent with tech, but I am more of an Apple guy so I had very limited exposure to Android, so far, and my problem is that I want to set up an Android tablet (Acer Iconia 16GB, running Android 4.2.2) for usage by an older person (my mother). For the time being she will only use Skype to communicate with relatives and friends. How can I set up this so that it works basically as a single-purpose device? Are there any utilities or apps I should install? (For example I noticed that the font, even at the maximum size, may still give her problems- she will use Skype for voice/video only, so screen space for text is less important than being able to read messages and labels). I am also worried that notifications (including the ones about patches/updates) may give her anxiety, at least at the start, so I'd like to know if it is possible to disable most of all of them. If anyone has other suggestions for this use case, even if not explicitly mentioned in my question, please contribute. It's my first attempt at this so I may be missing a lot. |

82328 | Cannot access google after SIM card change | I am currently on a vacation in Portugal and bought a local sim card for a Samsung Galaxy S4 with stock ROM. Now I cannot access any google services anymore. The rest of the internet works fine but any site using google's cdn fails to load. Android of course is almost impossible to use. Interestingly enough it only affects google.com, other google domains work fine. I did originally receive an email from google claiming a suspicious login. I verified that it was me on their security page on another phone. I tried resetting the dns cache, change the dns servers, the google unlock captcha, ... nothing works. It works fine when I log in via Wi-Fi. If I share the connection with a tablet that tablet can access anything just fine. Deleting and recreating the google account on the phone also does nothing. I am at a loss of what to try next. Any ideas? Thanks! |
50328 | "Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID" when installing Google Play service? | I need to run Google Plus, and Google Plus needs the Google Play service.

7972 | Android Voicemail Settings | Voicemail on my T-Mobile Galaxy Portal/Spica/i5700 doesn't work. I've set it up via the Tmobile voicemail setup, but if I call my mobile it just rings and rings until I get a message saying 'This number is currently unavailable.' Is there anything in Android itself that might have borked it? I'm running an _ahem_ not official Samsung version of Froyo. In `Settings -> Call Settings` I can see `Voicemail service`, from which my only option is `My Carrier`, and `Voicemail Settings`, and all that lets me do is pick the voicemail number to call. Or is it more likely just some error at T-mobile's end? Thought I'd check before giving them a call. |
56351 | Nexus 7 won't do anything! | My Son had a problem with his Nexus 7, it wouldn't turn off or turn on. It just hung with the Nexus cross on the screen. I followed information regarding the re-seting by holding down the power button and the volume button and got the little Android robot up. I tried "powering off" but this just turned the device off. I then tried another option that I think was something like "Reboot" (but not sure!!) and the tablet went off and I can't get anything out of it now. Please help as I have a very upset son! |

57008 | Why is there no bass in the audio with the iBolt dock and my Samsung Galaxy S4? | I'm using my Samsung Galaxy S4 with the iBolt car dock. It comes with a USB cable that splits into USB (for charging) and a 3.5mm jack (for audio). When I use this setup in my car, the audio has no bass at all. I believe it is literally just a high pass filter. I contacted iBolt about it and they claimed that they are just using Samsung's dock audio feature. In order to get the audio to play at all I do need to check off Settings->My Device->Accessory->Audio output mode (indicating that it should use external speakers when docked). So this supports their claim that it is a built in Samsung feature. I can think of many reasons why this might happen. It would make sense for the phone to have a high pass filter to protect the internal speaker. Maybe that filter isn't being turned off when the audio is output over USB. I've also tried a standard 3.5mm audio connection and a Bluetooth A2DP adapter with a 3.5mm connection on the same phone/car, and the bass sounds fine. Is this a Samsung bug? Does iBolt's cable not work properly? Is there a work around? |
51753 | Phone not appearing in Android Device Manager | When I go to Android Device Manager, my tablet is listed, but not my phone. I had signed up just as soon as ADM was available, and at that time both devices were listed. Now, for the last several days, I can only see my tablet. (For what it's worth, both devices appear in the "My Devices" section of the Google Play Store.) I have done the following while troubleshooting: * Ensured that the Android Device Manager settings in **Google Settings** are both on. I have even toggled them off and back on again * Ensured that **Location Services** are on * Ensured that all sync services for my account are toggled on and work * Have connected to the Play Store several different times * Ensured **Google Play Services** is at the latest version * Made sure I'm using the right account. (In fact, I removed the other secondary accounts from the phone) * Power-cycled the phone several different times I could understand if ADM couldn't find the phone due to it being off, out of range, poor signal, etc., but ADM would at least display the phone and tell me it couldn't find it. **So, any suggestions to get my phone to show up on Android Device Manager?** I would like this to be working before something happens to the phone. ( _Murphy's Law_ and all that.) Although it shouldn't make any difference: * Tablet: Nexus 7 (2012) with Android 4.3 * Phone: Verizon Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.2.2 Addendum: There's apparently some (relatively new) advice on the Android Device Manager help page: 1. Open  **Google Settings** from your device's apps menu. 2. Touch **Android Device Manager**. 3. Uncheck **Allow remote factory reset**. 4. Go to your device's main Settings menu, then touch **Apps > All > Google Play services**. 5. Touch **Clear Data**. Note that this action doesn't remove personal data. 6. Go back to **Google Settings** and select **Allow remote factory reset**. 7. Restart your device. I have followed these steps, but it doesn't appear to have worked. |
57003 | With Android 4.4 (KitKat), my notification icons are always gray. Am I in trouble? | With Android 4.3 and earlier, gray/white signal icons in the notification bar informed about connection trouble concerning the Google Services (see e.g. What does it mean when the connectivity icons in the status bar go white/gray?). If everything was OK, they were either green (before 4.x) or blue (4.0+). Now they seem to be permanently gray/white. Am I in trouble, or did I miss something? |
59622 | Delay on screen wake | When I push my power button to wake my device it takes 1-4 seconds for the screen to turn on and show the lock screenp.

16429 | Update text files on Android and sync to Dropbox | I'm transitioning to plain text files as the basis for my GTD system, which is awesome when I'm at my laptop (Vim editing all the way). However, I haven't yet figured out a good way to take quick notes on my Android tablet, which is a Xoom running Honeycomb (not yet rooted, although I'm open to the idea). Ideally what I like is a script or widget that would pop up a textbox that I could type a note into. The note would then be saved and synced to Dropbox automatically. The idea is for this capture process to be as seamless as possible. I would like to avoid having to remember to manually sync files in the Dropbox app, or launch an app and fuss with naming a file, browsing to the correct directory, etc. The apps I've tried so far are much too fiddly for my tastes. Any suggestions for how I could accomplish this? I'm a developer, I could definitely tackle a more code-oriented solution if that's the only way. |
61941 | tried to edit framework-res.apk on kyocera rise stuck in bootloop | Earlier this month I got a Kyocera Rise. I got it rooted the first minute I got it and decided I wanted to edit the `framework-res.apk` file. I extracted it, edited it, and trying to replace it, root explorer force closed. I was unable to open any application because I kept getting this (the application com.android.(so and so) isn't responding) error. I stupidly restarted the phone, forgetting that I could have adb pushed my backup `framework-res.apk` file. This phone has a recovery system that doesn't allow flashing updates. The bootloader is locked and Kyocera has yet to release an update, therefore we have no idea how updates are flashed. Any help at all is very appreciated :) |
61940 | Reset DHCP cache for Asus Memo Pad HD7 'Avoided due to poor connection' | Only the other day, my tablet now refuses to connect to any Wi-Fi spot. I've tried resetting both the tablet and the router to no avail. After looking around, it seems to be some form of issue with the DHCP, as I can connect via a static IP address, but obviously this only helps on my home connection. I'm just wondering if anyone knows how to clear the DHCP cache if that's even possible? Any help is appreciated. |

61945 | Is Odex really faster? | Is an odex file different from the dex file generated and stored in dalvik- cache? Is it faster? More optimized? Or just the same?

61944 | Fresh Cyanogenmod install, location doesn't work | Yesterday I installed Cyanogenmod using the one click install on my Nexus 4. There is a little problem though: when using location in the battery saving mode, when it only uses cell and wifi signals to guess your position, it simply can't locate. Using GPS is fine, it locks position within seconds, but it's too battery hungry, kills my phone in a few hours. Is this a known thing? Can it be fixed? EDIT: After 2 days, location in power saving mode comes and goes. |

64533 | HTC Desire HD Radio/3G issues | Since the very first day I had this phone, I have only been able to use the 2G network, the 3G network has never appeared. I know this phone is outdated, but for now, I do not have a choice than to keep it and I believe there should be a whole lotta experienced users since this phone has been a really very popular phone. Back to the question. I've tried a whole lotta tutorials, from XDA to the rest, telling me I need to flash a new radio but the problem is I have not been able to do that because of some errors I get when using the fastboot command (permission denied to be specific from the adb command interface). Other tutorials I got asked me to copy the PD98IMG.zip which contains the radio file to the root of my sdcard but that never works too because it is never loaded when I boot into bootloader or fastboot. Conclusively, what I think I need to do is unlock the hboot (or should I term it get eng. s-off), but that has been very hard too as I am always getting some kind of restrictions. And I think the restrictions are due to having an updated bootloader. So the real question is: do I need to downgrade the bootloader to be able to go eng. s-off so as to be able to flash the radio? I currently have a custom ROM (PACman Rom) based on Android 4.2.2 running smoothly on the device (and I think that should define that the phone is rooted) and the device is radio s-off. Please refer me to links that can help in downgrading the device if that would really solve the problem if possible. Thanks.... |

52185 | Get online playlist onto device without having to download music to device since all music is already stored locally | Have a Galaxy Note II with a 64gb micro SD card. I have a decent amount of music, but not so prohibitively large that it couldn't all fit on my SD card. When I first got my phone I dumped my itunes library onto the SD card which works. Later I discovered google play music and synced my itunes with it, including a few playlists I created. When I play those playlists on my phone it streams them. Which is fine if I am at work or at home on wifi but not the greatest while in the car. I tried pinning the playlist to my phone but it then started downloading ALL of the 400 ish songs in the playlist again to my phone, where they are already stored locally. Is there a way to move the playlist from itunes, or music player to my devices so it uses the locally stored music rather than streaming without downloading all of the music again? Or do I just have to accept this and take the half hour to hour needed to re- create the playlist on my phone. Thanks everyone. |

56976 | Lock System Settings in Android | My application will open to particular time and it won't close in that time, for example 2pm to 4pm is my application running time means, the user can't access any other applications (like Music, Chat, and make a call) and he won't change the device time also, for that how can I lock the Setting options or Time and Date setting option in Android Device? |
22959 | How to VPN only a single application? | Say you only want to route the traffic of a single application through a VPN. (Because the application lacks proper encryption support or the remote service is only available on a cooperate network.) Other stuff like web-browsing should go through the normal data connection. How to configure this on a recent Android device (>= Android 4.0)? Concrete motivation: Unfortunately, quite a few VoIP gateway providers do not provide encryption of data (voice and signaling) - thus using a VPN is necessary (at least when connected via WLAN). One provider (sipgate.de) even provides its own VPN (and no other SIP/RTP encryption methods). |
56973 | How do I flash a Samsung device using the distribution on samsung-updates.com? | I'm hoping to flash the stock rom back onto my device so I can update the PRL. I downloaded the file on samsung-updates.com. The file that I download was found "Firmware archive" for Sprint's SPH-L720 (Galaxy S4). A comment said the SPR was for regular users and the XAS one was for engineers. Not exactly sure what that means, but I downlaoded the SPR file changelist 1927016 > SPR-L720VPUEMJA-20131030154609.zip Now when I look inside I have two files, 1. `L720VPUEMJA_L720SPTEMJA_L720VPUEMJA_HOME.tar.md5` 2. `SS_DL.dll` What does these files do? Why do I do with the .dll? How do I flash my device with it? Do I simply load the .zip into Clockworkmod and boot up? Should I, or should I not wipe cache and Dalvik after I do that? I've already backed up my current version of CM and data using CWM. |
22953 | My busybox gets corrupted? | Recently I just downgraded my busybox to 1.18.2 version using the jRummy's BusyBox Installer. I was previously having busybox preinstalled by CM7.2 custom ROM. Then I immediately tried to install the latest, 1.19.4 version using the same app.. It could have shown some error message, but I wasn't sure. Maybe the download didn't proceed fully. But now onwards, I am getting "No root" message when I try to launch the BusyBox Installer. I tried everything, forgetting the app from SuperUser (by chainsfire) app and reauthorizing root for it, clearing data, rebooting the phone etc. Apps like link2sd also cannot get "root" privileges all of a sudden!! Strange thing is, z4root app detects my phone as already rooted. And when I try to click "re-root", the process goes on and on and nothing happens. Why has this happened? Is this because JRummy's busybox overwrites the CM7.2 build one? Should I never try updating busybox when I'm on CM7.2? or is it because I have to specify correct path? /system/xbin in that busybox installer? Now all I need is to make busybox and more importantly, get my root back to work properly hopefully without having to reinstall my ROM. Any ideas?

2747 | Android email setup of Mail app results in a "Force Close" | On the Motorola Droid I was successfully getting my corporate email for a year with no problems. On 11/09/2010 I started getting a security error when trying to retrieve email in the native Android Mail app. I tried tweaking a couple settings but ended up deleting my account credentials in order to re-enter them in an effort to bypass the security error. I know get an error every time I enter my account credentials and attempt to connect to our corporate exchange server. I go through the following steps: Open the mail app Enter email address and password Press Manual setup Press Exchange Modify Domain\Username and Server to contain correct corporate information Insure "User secure connection (SSL)" and "Accept all SSL certificates" are checked Press Next App says "Checking incoming server settings" Message pops up "Sorry! The application Email (process com.android.email) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." No combination of rebooting, clearing Mail app data and changing of SSL selections allows me to bypass this error. **UPDATE** According to Motorola Level 2 technical phone support the only solution to this issue is to restore the phone to it's factory settings. |

I'm on a Motorola Droid running CyanogenMod 6.1 (Froyo). EDIT: My desktop is running Windows 7 64-bit. Any suggestions on ways to do this? Thanks! |

37307 | How do I sync with DropBox? | I want to sync DropBox with Android, so I can use the files on Android. So I installed DropBox on Android, but it won't download any files! (or at least I don't see them under `sdcard/Android/com.dropbox.android`. So I can't use the the files on Android. Did I get it wrong somehow? I tried `Folder downloader`, but I lose the sync feature of DropBox this way. The files modified on my Android won't be synced with my laptop. I was expecting to see `Dropbox folder` option on Android, same as on the laptop. But there's no such option. |
54725 | Where is the factory reset button on Android 4.0.3? | I would like to do a factory reset of my Android phone. All guides on the internet I read show a factory reset button under the Privacy tab in Settings. However I don't have this button. Where is it hidden? I have Android 4.0.3 on an HTC one phone. |
54724 | Are there any benchmarking apps that measure how smooth scrolling is on a certain device? | The one thing I think that IOS (and Windows 8 as well) still has over Android even after all these years is smoothness in scrolling. After a while you don't really notice the difference until you start using an iphone side by side and realize just how smooth it should be. Jelly bean made things better and recently I bought the new Nexus 7 and 4.3 seems to have improved things even more. Aside from just "feeling" it is smoother, are there any benchmarking apps to verify this? |
54720 | Why does Sound Recorder in Cyanogenmod need network permission? | It doesn't seem to be able to share sound recordings. Why does it need that permission? Cyanogenmod 10.1 although I've seen it in other versions. |
54723 | SMS for small screen - workarounds or replacement app | The default SMS app's text size on my current phone is far too big for my tiny screen, and it wastes further screen real estate with a suggestion bar, which isn't much good if you can't see what you're replying to or half of what you're typing. Also, it inserts the name of the addressee and their _phone number_ at the top of the screen unless you're actually scrolling. Currently, I spend more time trying to see what's written than I do typing. Could anyone offer any advice, or alternatively, is there an Eclair-compatible SMS app which 1. Allows the user to specify text size, or uses small text to begin with 2. Provides a good view of what you're writing and/or reading. Any suggestions for smaller-but-still-usable keypads would also be appreciated. I already know that the keypad can be temporarily hidden whilst composing a message, but it's useful to be able to see a little of both messages whilst actually typing. This is really bugging me. Thanks :-) |
78523 | Looking for a way to use voice commands create calendar entry in non-Google calendar | I'm looking for a way to create calendar entries in a non-Google calendar using voice commands. The built in voice command (using CM11 M8 / 4.4.4 with Google apps) only creates entries in my Google calendar and I do not see an option to change this behavior. I'm happy to use a different voice command app if that's what's necessary. To clarify: I would like to create this calendar entry in a calendar hosted on a server accessed by caldav. |
78522 | How do I set an image as my custom lock screen image without any widgets on Android 4.4.4? | I have made an image that I'd like to use as my lockscreen "wallpaper". Except, I don't want it to be a wallpaper, I want it to be the only thing I see on the lockscreen with no unlock button or widgets on top. I don't mind if the status bar is there or not and it would be great to put a clock and the weather on there, but it's not necessary. I've tried a lot of lock screen replacements, but haven't found one which will remove all the periphery and just let me set the image as the lock screen without any widgets or a lock icon on top. Do you know of anything? For reference, I'd love to be able to swipe to unlock the screen. |
78524 | The sim card is from unknown source - MOTXT912 | I am living in India and my uncle gave me a brand new MOTxt912 verizon phone but I have inserted a non verizon sim and there is no signal and I got the following error message "This sim card is from unknown source". I have enabled the GSM band with the help of following thread http://www.dhakamobile.com/showthread.php?p=345399. But I couldn't get rid of the Error message. I read in some forums that Uninstalling the Verizon app may fix this issue. Is there any method to remove verizon app? Note: I couldnot enable the USB debugging as the access to phone menu is prevented by the same popup. |

42698 | Galaxy S I9000 doesn't start | I flashed my _Samsung Galaxy S_ with 4.1.1 through Odin. But I didn't like it, so I wanted to restore it to Android 2.3 -- and and while restoring it my computer suddenly restarted and my mobile phone turned off. Now the problem is that when I try to open my mobile it doesn't respond: it gives my a little vibrate but the screen gives me nothing. When I try to start it in download or recovery mode it does the same: it just gives me a little vibrate. I tried to connect it to my PC but nothing happened. When I charge it, it gives me nothing. I replaced the battery and it did the same. Is there anything I can do to revive my phone? |
27411 | How to edit the home dock icons (shortcuts) on TouchWiz 4.0 ICS | I recently received the ICS update to my Galaxy Note and couldn't (or couldn't remember how to) change the shortcut icons at the bottom of each page. It seems they have removed one method for changing them. |

29193 | Firm Gmail, i.e. Google Apps -email, with K9 -email program? | > _I am struggling with this kind of Google Apps -site, example from > Google.com -sitehere._ > >  I use two email-clients in Android: default Gmail -client (because it is tied to my Gmail) and K9. I am able to set up all Gmails to K9 but one email i.e. the firm email from the site `https://www.google.com/a/firm.com` (excluding ofc the Android-tied-gmail -account, more here). It means that I am using K9 and default Gmail-Android -program but I would like to have all emails under K9. Is it possible and how can do it here in the case of the Gmails targeted to firms? I think such gmails are called something like Google App or something like that, not sure. The firm Gmail is not accepted like this in K9: > Username: forname.surname > > Password: correct > > IMAP server: mail.myFirm.com > > Security type: SSL (always) > > Port: 993 > > Use compression on network: Mobile Wi-Fi Other If I change the IMAP -server to `mail.gmail.com`, it gets accepted but it won't work correctly -- redirection problem. But now I am stucked why it does not accept the above settings?! **Perhaps useful to other like-minded** > 1. All emails under K9 -app? > > 2.

12150 | Is there anything that can show exactly what has awaken my phone? | Recently I had some issues with my phones battery getting drained in 8-10 hours, even though the screen was active for less than 1 hour and wifi/bluetooth/gps was off. My first thought was to check the battery usage statistics, but all I saw was the display, voice calls and cell standby, and after that a few apps that I commonly use (such as the browser). Still suspecting an app hogging the CPU I used applications such as a task manager and watchdog to try to find the culprit, but no luck. I then looked around here and found a couple of answers referencing to the awake time. Looking at battery usage again I could see that indeed the awake time was around 75% of the total time since last charge, i.e. some app was preventing my phone from going to sleep. I uninstalled a couple of apps I don't use anymore and lowered settings for email checks etc, and now my awake time is down to normal levels. My question is, is there any app/secret number/trick/whatever that can show exactly what has awaken my phone? In the battery usage statistics I can still see that sometimes the phone wakes up even though the screen is off, and that is normal, but if I ever get this problem again (and I'm sure I will), this would be a very valuable tool for trouble shooting. |
27416 | Is upgrading to Touchwiz 4.0 /ICS supposed to wipe your desktop? | Recently received ICS on my Galaxy Note. After it installed, my entire desktop was wiped, and basically restored to factory settings, including dopey things like the S Memo widgets and gigantic AccuWeather widget on the front page. No applications were uninstalled, just the shortcuts. The background image was retained. Was this meant to happen, or did something go wrong? It's pretty irritating, because some of the shortcuts I'd set up (eg, Offi directions) are time consuming to replicate. |

67041 | How can I cancel an Android Device Manager Erase command? | Using Android Device Manager from my PC, several devices are listed, including one that no longer belongs to me. While attempting to remove this device from my list I inadvertently sent an 'Erase' command to the other devices. Fortunately, none of these devices had Android Device Manager enabled as a device manager, so the request was ignored. Phew! But I'm now a bit concerned that the request will be pending, and that at some time in the future an Android software upgrade will enable Device Manager and my data will disappear. Can anyone tell me a way of cancelling the 'Erase' command, or whether the command will 'time-out' at some time? |

29045 | SD card will not format within Android therefore cannot mount. Works fine on laptop | I bought a 64GB SD card for my Galaxy S3, and it worked perfectly. Today I turned on device encryption (worked fine) then I turned on SD card encryption. Since then I am stuck with the phone reporting that the SD card is blank or has an unsupported file system. Android gives me the option to format. The screen displays it is erasing, but then nothing happens. I have tried removing the SD card and turning the phone on and off again. I have manually formatted the card using Windows 7 (ExFAT file system). I am able to read and write files to the card on the computer but the phone refuses to acknowledge a mountable SD Card. I have also tried turning off the SD card encryption. Any ideas on a fix? |

55098 | “Insufficient storage available”. Ok, but where? | When I upgrade an Android application from Google Play, it gets downloaded, then the upgrade stops with the message “Error: Insufficient storage available.” Yet none of the partitions seem to be nearly full. The app is about 10MB, and I have about 100MB free on `/data`. Here's the output of `df` (omitting `/mnt/asec`): Filesystem Size Used Free Blksize /dev 171M 32K 171M 4096 /mnt/asec 171M 0K 171M 4096 /mnt/obb 171M 0K 171M 4096 /cache 469M 2M 466M 4096 /efs 6M 3M 3M 4096 /system 503M 329M 174M 4096 /data 1007M 895M 112M 4096 /storage/sdcard0 13G 4G 8G 4096 This is happening on a rooted stock 4.1.2 image from Google. I've read other questions on this site, such as Why can't I install apps when I have enough storage?, insufficient storage error while updating installed apps [duplicate], and others, but they all concern situations with only about 10–20MB free, whereas I have a 100MB safety margin.
