So I got S-OFF as well as SuperCID on my phone and flashed the Dark Jelly ROM correctly (I believe), however when I try to tether my phone to my laptop or use bluetooth, I would be able to connect. In conjunction with that, I would lose the ability to mount the internal SD card on to my laptop to transfer files when I have profiles of my phone on my laptop regarding bluetooth/tethering.
So what I was wondering if anyone else was having problems or am I making a mistake somewhere in the process? I didn't want to post in the Android Development, but hopefully I can get an answer. Thanks.

Hi all.
I have a rooted Kindle Fire Running the latest CM7 that I grabbed from this site. I have two quick questions, if I may.
I know that once rooted an running CM7 Windows does not recognize the tablet for usb mass storage unless you take some steps and since I chose the option of the command in terminal emulator, I had to redo it when I restarted the tablet to show my buddy TWRP 2.0 and now I can't find that command anywhere. Can anyone point me to it?
Also since the Fire only comes with a 5GB partition as the SD card I wanted to Format and clean it and start fresh on it. any one know if that will mess with TWRP or CM 7 at all. I don't mind if I lose everything else because I have neglected adding many apps while I tinker with it.
I just had a thought. Since the SD Card is not technically an SD card and is Just a partition(correct me if I'm wrong), Then using TWRP to wipe it may wipe everything. Anyone done this?
Call me OCD but I'm worried about the storage and would love to get rid of anything not needed.
Or does anyone think I can just remove all of the folders accept for my backup folder? none seem to have much of anything in them. I think most were put there by the Stock Rom.
Nevermind on the usb thing. I got that confused with the ICS rom I flashed to my DX. All I had to do was select USB mass storage on the Fire.
But does anyone know if I can format my SD card with out ruining TWRP or the ROM?
I have recently rooted my Xoom WiFi (Running ICS 4.0.4 IMM76) and the SD card is unusable. It wasn't functioning all that well before, but now it's even worse. Any file on it is unreadable by all programs. Music files are seen on Google Play Music but attempting to play them and it just skips to the next file and on and on it goes. My searching this site and many others doesn't come up with a solution. Everything I get is pre ICS or non rooted Xooms. Can someone help? Either listing what needs to be done to fix it or by linking to a post that will help.
Thank you
***FIXED***
Not sure if it was using the fix permission function of Tiamat's ClockworkMod Recovery or if it was installing CyanogenMod 9 but it is working perfectly now, better than before.
Hi all,
To start with, I'm in India and tried to unlock my Verizon S3.. at first, got it rooted, tried to unlock, didn't work and it caused a bunch of connection problems, etc. with the phone, so I did a factory reset, thinking it would wipe the problems I was having.
Lost some files I forgot were on my internal memory I needed, so I wanted to do a file recovery. During this process, I re-downloaded the drivers for the S3 I needed and then found that my phone would connect, but wouldn't connect as a driver and only as a media source. So the recovery software can't find the device to inspect. Even when I debugged, it would only register as a bootloader and wouldn't recognize it as anything more.
I'm trying to figure out what other steps I need to take to either remove something that I tampered with before the factory reset, or if I need to install something new to configure my device to register as a driver, or do something else I can't figure out?
And I'm still trying to recover those files from before the factory reset too.
Anyone have any suggestions? I can explain in more detail if needed.
Thanks for all the help!
Are you trying to recover personal files that were wiped?

Trying to get my computer to register the phone as a driver so then I will be able to recover the files.

You may be out of luck. When google went to Android 4.x, they switched to the MTP protocol which mounts the phone to the computer as a media device, rather than a mass storage device (as in previous versions of Android). As far as I can tell, devs have only been able to figure out how to get the external SD card to be seen as mass storage (and that's built into a rom, not a stand alone mod, I believe).
Is there any file recovery software/app available for Android that you can install directly on the phone, rather than needing to run it from a computer?
Well, that's not a good sign. But I will check into the direct software to the phone and let you know I find anything.
Thanks for the tip!

So I've been trying and trying to change MTP to a UMS all day, I've finally figured out how to get my SD card to change to UMS which is cool but I want my internal memory to show up as well. I need to back up my entire internal memory, I also don't have enough space to move everything over to my SD card.
Now, the reason why I don't want to use MTP is because it transfers way to slow and for some reason a lot of folders and files are not showing up when connected to my PC but I could see them fine on the phone with root explorer or something similar.
Any ideas on how to get all drives to work as UMS or get all my files to show up using MTP.
kinda getting fed up already researching it.
nevermind i just used FTP :-/
UMS on JB?
Hey Skeltergrave,
You managed to activate UMS on Jelly Bean? I thought it was not possible, could you share how you did it? I want to connect my phone to my stereo and it's just not possible without UMS!
Also did you did this on stock rom? Or some custom rom?
Thanks in advance!

Hey!
I did it on the stock Rom, but it only works for the SD Card. You could try it if you'd like. I'm not sure if it'll work for any other device then a PC but it's worth a shot. I followed this tutorial for the Atrix HD.
Since your not going to use it for your computer I don't think you'll have to follow the PC instructions.

Let me know how it goes buddy.

Hi
I wanted to ask something about Rooting but couldn't find specific section for it or if there is, i am sorry i couldn't locate it. I apologize for it.
I have a Huawei Ascend G610-U20 with Android 4.2.1. The internal memory is 4GB but only 1.86GB is useable (on format). I am using Stock ROM.
I have some applications which are installed in phone memory (sdcard 0, not external sdcard). For example Facebook and by default it doesn't have the option of shifting to SD card, that option is turned off. Similarly this is off for Mix Cloud app. There are so many other apps as well. I use Dodol launcher and all it's themes are on phone memory and cannot be migrated to external SD card.
I found this thread of making SD card as default location for installation. I didn't do it being afraid to make any disastrous changes to my phone.
Then i got to know about rooting and i was again afraid of bricking my phone. This is why i am asking it here. I had previously another Android phone and i rooted it and then it started some problems mainly software clashes. e.g. when viber is being used and a phone call comes, phone restarted. I thought of at least considered that time that this is due to rooting.
My sole purpose of doing any of above method is, to be able to migrate those apps to external SD card which are by default not able to be migrated in stock ROM. Else than this i am not much advanced user and nor do i want to go further deeper.
What you recommend and what is the best way to do.
Just a point to mention, in case of using that 1st method of Android ADB method, i think it would need me to format the phone and then reinstall the apps. Am i right?
Please guide me.
Thanks in advance.
