Yes, use the hack kit....Is not in xda anymore but Is still ON the game. Is the only working tool in town. To find it follow my signature...:good:

Thanks. Now I have to find the spare micro-SD card so I can complete it. Just can't remember where it is.

Why do you have to find a spare SD?

Procedure says process will make SD card a golden card for S-off. I might be wrong but it appears that the S-off command needs to get put on the SD card before it gets activated and allows root. Or is that wrong?

I also thought it would make my sd card unusable afterwards. However, that was not the case, you can use it with no issues.

Problem is my SD card is in my Samsung with lots on it. Didn't want to chance losing that data.

ok, there´s no need to use a different sdcard. The hack kit does not touch the information in it and after the whole process is done it wipes de goldcard from it...you don´t need to keep either.
I have run the kit with my current sdcard and there´s no need to change it...make a back up just for precaution, but it does not format it....

Great. Thanks for the info. I did find a small 2GB card I can use too.

Yep, the only fact that u have to take into consideration is that the sdcard needs not to be corrupted...otherwise it will fails to work as a goldcard.

Thanks everyone. Phone is rooted.

Um, the Web browsers are full browsers. The same search capabilities exists on the phone as the PC. almost everyone of your threads posted , you could have found the answers to your questions. Also almost all of your
threads are posted in the wrong section and start out with an apology first which makes me think you know exactly what you're doing.

You should try to get a spare SD card. Let me tell you. It's a TOTAL PITA to copy all the files back into the SD card (had to do it two or three times). I wanted to shoot laser beams at my phone.
Used my 2gb sd card. But i wanted to figure out what the problem was. So i tried like 5 times. THen figured out that i had to delete my voodoo folder already existing on my 32 gb sd. :x. Hope this helps other people. And thanks to everyone who helped me with this

Face Unlock???

Since face unlock was fixed in AOKP, does anyone have a working, face unlock .zip they can share? All help would be appreciated.

Guys... face unlock is in gapps. No need for all that. Just make a file named .forcefaceunlock in the root of the sdcard before you flash.

it really sucks... it recognized me twice in 50 tries... I once had a face unlock app called visidon applock and it was much mich better... I wonder what's wrong.

I think it's the camera quality. I use the option to "Improve face unlocking" quite bit, in different light, and angles. Use that a lot, then it should be a bit better.
I tried it. It just gives up recognizing almost immediately..

Is there anything I can do now, didn't make the file before flashing gapps.
I have root explorer and found the apk inside gapps. Can I copy the apk or would you recommend just re flashing gapps?

Will I have to redo all my account settings either manually or with titanium backup? I've got your Rom running so smooth.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
You shouldn't need to redo the accounts since it'll re-flash the same files and it SHOULDN'T touch your settings but hey make a nandroid if you're worried about it. You'll have a known-good copy in case things go wrong.
Perfect.. Worked well... Just realized though....how does one unlock their phone during the night when it's too dark? Lol thanks!

Anyone know how to fix the sdcard security issue?

Ever since I upgraded from cm10 to the jellywiz rom I have been getting "Cannot access external sdcard for security reasons." I paraphrased because I can't remember the exact wording. Anyways anyone know why that is or if there is a workaround for it? I have tried multiple ROMs and even changed the kernel but it didn't work. I wanted to try to go back to ICS then back to another jellybean build but I am not sure how to do that. I hear it has bricked a lot of phones. Has anyone had this same issue and somehow fixed it? I miss my music.

Sounds like you figured it out. Now have you tried formatting the card to see if it can be saved. Obviously after you back everything up, since your computer reads it.

What size is the sd Card

Do cm10 nightlies use a lot of space?

Should I be flashing every nightly? Not sure how it works. I can update it via my settings but idk where it saves to and how much space its taking up.
Thanks

I'm not running CM10 but I can say that ROM is probably at least 150MB. Every nightly you download and don't delete is taking up space on one of your SD cards.
The updater app should tell you where it is downloading the files to.

Just delete them after installing the next one and keep the current one on your card

OP doesn't know where they are, tho I believe the CM10 updater allows you to pick and choose to delete files.
OP: I'm not positive but I believe there's a directory made on the internal sdcard called cmupdater or something to that effect. I haven't been on CM10 for almost a month.

Skyrocket detects external 32gb microsd card, but won't be read by...

I just recently purchased a 32gb class 10 micro sd card for my skyrocket, and it works perfectly fine.
The only issue i have is that the microsd card won't be read unless i use a file manager such as astro.. Apps like gallery or mxplayer won't read the microsd card.
This didn't happen with the 16gb class 4 micro sd card, so what is happening?
Anyway to fix this issue?
Thanks

Btw when i ran media scan it says sd card is "usb storage". Not "external sd".... Could this be the reason?

Mini Tools Partition Wizard is the program to use if you are on windows. Use it to format the card to fat32 primary. If that doesn't do it replace the card.

Is there anyway to make the paths so the phone can determine its correct location?
Could it be the difference in size of the card itself too?

When I reformat back with android, it works fine, other than the issue of not showing the files in apps, unless using a file manager.

Yes, i am rebooting.
Only issue is that to view images in apps like gallery or mxplayer, the folder has to be on the root of the sdcard. Before i had a group of folders in one, and now it won't let me do this.
Am i possibly naming folders wrong?
