Hey guys,
I'm having troubles recently with my Wizard. I am running TNT.19199 Rom. First of all, seems tyhe touch sensors on the phone don't seem to respond as quickly anymore.
1- Also, sometimes, the volume on the phone goes dead. Which means I cannot hear the ringers and when I press the buttons. Although I can hear the conversation. At this point, I have to restart the phone to get it to work.
2- I've been having problems with bluetooth lately. Is there some sort of patch to remedey that problem?
3- Sometimes people cannot hear me clearly on the other end of the conversation...
4- I'm still trying to find the programm that turns my SD card into a virtual Hard drive for the phone. I know you guys are telling it doesn't exist but I'm not making up what I saw back in January. Maybe it has to do with a prgram called Ramldr. Anyone know how it works? Much appreciated.
Thanks guys!
Phil
heads up???
Hey guys,
I'd really appreciate a little heads up on the problems I'm having....
Thanks,
Phil
most of your glitches may be solved by a rom change. try flashing a different rom. try some other rom.
the program you may be looking for is "WM5torage". this program will turn your phone's card into a virtual flash drive on the computer. run it, and connect the phone to the pc via usb.
unless you are lookig for ramdisk which turns part of your ram into a hard drive (not very usefull as these phones dont have enough ram as is.
Bluetooth issues: just about all of the 6.1s have these issues. look for a rom that has the least ammount of bluetooth "extras" as possible.
TOUCH: touch scroling is available on just about every rom these days. most people have different sensitivity settings. you can change these settings in the registry. search the wiki.
LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT:
since your issues relate to a specific rom, keep the complaints on that thread. If you can't get help there then flash a different rom. there is a new TNT rom out here, try that one. or the slim 6.1 or any other rom that has good reviews. read the whole tread before flashing so that you can make an inteligent descision about flashing the thing or not. (I hope I don't come off rude, just trying to be helpfull)

About the Drive...
Thanks SVI,
But you're missing my point. I'm not looking for my ram to become hard disk space, nor am I looking to turn my phone into an external HD for my computer. I'm looking to turn my SD card into Internal HD! 4 months now and I'm still certain there is a way. Back in January when I had gotten this phone, I saw a program capable in doing that.
This is no longer a search but has turned into a quest for all those that doubt this even exists...
Anyways, I'll be looking into a rom change at this point. But I've grown really fond of tnt.19199 since it's been the most reliable rom to date!

A little more...
Okay, I'm 1 step closer...
Not totally there, but I found this info for Nokia phones. I suppose it's for symbian OS.
What this dioes is boot from MMC card which in turn gives you the liberty to load as much stuff as you want on the phone. The MMC card acts as the internal memory and not just storage card.
http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto_easily_boot_from_mmc_card/
By the way, I read up on WM5torage. Is it possible to tweak this prgram to work in favor of the pda instead of the computer?? What if the pda read the sd card as internal memory instead of the computer attached???
Just an idea...

Here's the situation in brief(please read below for further explanation):
- Arrived in Ireland with LG Vm670 which worked fine for browsing, WhatsApp, etc
- Battery dislodged and phone reset to 1980, no longer can connect or recognize any WIFI signal (is now essentially useless)
- Decided to ROOT but have had to use husbands phone to access GooglePlay and download File Manger, Gingerbread etc on to SD card
- Put SD card into LG phone and nothing is being recognized therefor we're unable to ROOT and ClockSync device.
2 questions: How can I force my phone to recognize the SD files so that we can install these programs, should we be trying a factory reset? Will rooting even be possible without an internet connection or computer access?
*** THANKS to any or all that can shed some light on this problem, we do know what else we can do and I'm desperate for HELP!
The WHOLE STORY (as originally posted in general Q/A): After weeks of general research, trial and error and some despair I have decided to join this forum in hopes of some answers to sorting out my phone. While I will try to keep this brief, this is not a straight forward question and as of yet I have been unable to locate a thread that addresses all of my concerns or questions. Admittedly, I am not as technically savvy as other members on this site so please have patience and understand that I've done my best with the resources and knowledge I have. Here's the issue:
My LG VM670 phone was brought to Ireland (from the US) almost 2 months ago, while I never intended to use it for phone calls it was capable of browsing the internet and that was sufficient. WhatsApp was my main source of communication with family and friends in the states and abroad. I felt very fortunate to have not had any problems until the phone was dropped and the battery dislodged from the casing. Since that happened, my phone has reset itself to 1980 and is no longer able to locate or connect to WIFI or do much of anything for that matter.
After electing to ROOT the phone in hopes that ClockSync may resolve the problem, we downloaded all the files necessary from my husbands phone (an LG that had previously been rooted and is capable of getting online) but my phone is not recognizing any of the files from the SD card. We've exhausted all possibilities, Bluetoothing files and preloading the SD card with Gingerbread and ES File Manager but despite our best attempts my phone can't or will not access these files. Unfortunately, I have no preloaded apps that can assist so it's like starting from scratch but with no internet and no PC, all we're equipped with is an iPad 2 and his LG phone, we're not sure what else can be done with such limited equipment and access. But in the event we can get the applications and programs installed we know how to go about rooting thanks to all the guides posted, it's just getting over the hurdle with the SD card and installation.
Any thoughts on what is happening with the SD card? We know a root can be done without a computer but not if the files can't be accessed so this seems to be the biggest part of the dilemma. With no internet connection or access to the Google Play store is this even possible?
Any and all ideas are welcomed, I just want to be able to solve this problem without having to scrap the phone. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
i dont think you could without internet !

Why no access to a computer? Couldn't you ask to use someone's?

Apparently they are out of the country. Remember you gotta install drivers too
@NoobInNeed - Can you boot to recovery? I ask because you made no mention of it.
Your questions:
1) Possibly... using Terminal Emulator
2) Also possible, if you can boot to recovery and your recovery isn't stock.
First things first This Forum has a LOT of different places to post so if this is in the wrong place please dont yell at me, just kindly assist me in moving it to the appropriate location. I think once we get this solved it might be a huge step for the Android community.
OK So long story short G2's digitizer is dead, glass shattered, i can still see the screen and i'm getting a USB OTG cable tomorrow, that will make all of this completely null and void(maybe wednesday). (ALSO Caps is being used for things i think are important, i'm going to be posting this in a few places so i need it to be universal, i hope you all understand)
BUT i still want to try my damndest to get into this phone and backup files, JUST BECAUSE I BELIEVE I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO.(or at the very least "able")
So for those as adventurous as i am, I'd like to hear any suggestions on how to get access to the device (MOUNT STORAGE) in its current state. Details below:
-Sprint ls980
-Digitizer is shattered
-lcd is completely fine
-all buttons work (theres only three lol)
-i have sound and vibration
-wireless storage is off(turned it off right before it fell from my hands to the douchebag floor below)
-USB DEBUGGING(although i distinctly remember enabling it many times) Is NOT ON. (Or at least adb will not recognize the device.)
-adb WILL recognize the device in SIDELOAD MODE
-no custom recovery
-no custom roms
-literally purely stock
-And of course USB Connection is set to CHARGE ONLY(i didnt do this, but apparently it remembers your LAST choice and uses that as default, stupid lg, why let me chose the option to "ask every time", if you're going to default to my last choice anyway?)
Now i really just want to access my pictures(there's a pic of my mom that i took and she REALLY wants it and bugs me daily about it)(You can blame the G2's amazing camera)
Now here's what i HAVE TRIED:
-ADB
-moborobo sp? (some program)(and a few others like it)
-android control
-fastboot
-download mode
-tried making my own OTG cable....failed miserably (i'd upload a pic...but yea...)
-adb via wifi
-tried flashing a custom recovery, but USB debugging wasnt enabled so it failed
-_-
-had the idea of using chrome Remote desktop, but i cant connect to it in its current state lol
-thought about bluetooth, but my lame laptop doesnt have bluetooth (i'd be willing to explore this option tho, sounds fun)
-nothing "illegal"......yet.....totally kidding, i want to be able to do this as legally as possible
So brothers and sisters, does anyone have any options they'd like to try out?
If we try anything CRAZY is there a way to force the phone to make a backup?
Is there a way to disassemble the phone and connect it straight to the onboard storage?
i'm just throwing ideas out there.
Thanks in advance!!
and yes i'm a new poster, but i've been lurking on these forums since 2010
And i'll add this, because i know someone is thinking it right now, "Why didnt you root your g2?" Simple answer is this:
I wanted to experience Android in its most Basic state, Getting people to move from any other platform to Android is not easy, When you show them your modded out custom g2 it scares them, but the second they see my phone completely stock and realize how great Android is they start regretting their iPhone purchase or even heir midrange Android purchase. My [email protected] and Nexus 7 in their "Vanila" state have Wowed many people and converted longtime iphone users. Solving this problem would only aid in that effort.
Thanks again guys.
Is there a way to move this to the Developers forum? i'm sure they've got some ideas
Hi all,
I know this has been said some where and all but i am trying to find a way . I am running cyanogen mod latest version 11 with latest OTA.. not into 12 and all. I am trying to connect mobile to laptop and make it recognize as a drive not as a portable player. I have tried various options like enabling usb debugging, and storage -> usb options and all nothing helped
everything shown it as a portable player. Now i will tell you my need of it, i Use Automatic call recorder for recording calls - not all only very important and precious ones. I should have learned most about their options and all.. everytime i call some one i stop the recording. But it was told that after 100 voice recordings the old ones will be deleted automatically and will be always 100 only at any time.. with all junk calls i have lost my precious recordings being replaced with new ones. When i recently found out that there is no option to recover those files, my next step is the data recovery..and there no good apps that can directly run on mobile and recover..so the next best option is to connect the mobile to laptop and make it as a drive and try to recover files..
Please tell me an option to make this happen.to connect oneplusone mobile to laptop and make it as external hard drive..and good data recovery software.. i really in need of those recordings. .some precious moments in my life..
Thanks...
I have no experience with call recordings, but are the recordings saved in a specific folder and a specific file type ? If so maybe use a backup app/program to backup those files everyday and sync them to cloud storage automatically ?
thanks and appreciate your reply.. the files are already lost.. i am taking care of current recordings..but wanted to get the files already deleted..
If you're still writing data to the internal storage you're gonna find it very hard to recover any deleted data, because it's overwriting those blocks. When attempting to recover lost data you need to completely cease any writing to the drive/card.

Maybe this thread will help:

Alternatively, Dr. Fone may be compatible with your device and may work--there is a trial offer, but I don't know details.

Very simple. Use any OTG cable and insert there a memory card reader or pen drive even a external hard disc. I always connect my ONE PLUS ONE to my 1TB seagate backup plus hard drive with OTG cable for data transfer.
I think just plug in then the PC will have a "phone" logo on the drive. Or am I missing something. If not thing happened, go to setting---> stroage--->"menu"--->USB Computer connection
For recovering Flash Drive data, I think that is very hard. Good luck.
Upon dabbling ALOT with the LGMS550 (Stylo 2 Plus) MetroPcs) I figured out how to enable FULL OTG SUPPORT..if u try to plug in ANY usb device ...NOTHING HAPPENS...
Things you'll need..
1) ROOT...TWRP FOR OUR DEVICE...GOOGLE IT...DO THE WORK LIKE I DID
2) BUSYBOX
3)ROOT BROWSER....THATS IT
USING ROOT BROWSER NAVIGATE TO- /sys/devices/soc/78db000.usb/power_supply/usb/usb_otg--edit from 0 to 1...save
THATS IT ...EXIT LLPLUG IN A USB DEVICE WITH OTG CABLE....A POP UP WILL SHOW IN UR DROP DOWN MENU...
PROFIT!!
I DID IT ...IM JUST A NORMAL SELF TAUGHT GUY..OH YEAH...ITS TRUE.TRY IT FOR YOUR SELF... it may take a couple times of plugging and unplugging your USB device but it will show in your drop down menu have a nice day
Oh yeah one more thing you're charging port will no longer work until you reboot when you enable usb OTG it becomes a USB host in your charging doesn't work anymore so you'll have to configure your own script at boot or whenever you feel like making it happen figure it out just know that you can't charge your phone until you reboot or change the values back bye bye
UPDATE!!!!!
THE ONLY FILE THAT NEEDS TO BE EDITED IS ...usb_otg. from 0 to 1.
Don't forget to put it back to zero when you're finished otherwise your phone won't charge.
I use "QUICKEDIT text editor on top of ROOT EXPLORER..
thats it.
As long as you return everything to default settings I've tried it a hundred times already and I've had this phone for over a year it works great my phone is nowhere near stock at all but the OTG is fully functional when you do as I say
Good to know info. Thank you....
Here's some more otg info.
Only modding USB otg file enables otg
Idk if the fifth pin for otg works because if i enable otg it outputs 5 volts through a charger. Here's some pictures
Thank you!
Can you by chance give a brief description of what each change edit does so we can understand what is being changed?
Thanks for your work.
Idk tbh but I only edited the USB otg file and it enabled it

Hey there. Is it alright if i add this to my guide for this phone?
I'd rather you didn't because I really put in a lot of work trying to figure out how to enable OTG on this phone... I'll do a fair exchange with you send me a copy of the stock boot image... and yeah sure you can use it I want all the credit though bro cuz it took me a couple months to make this happen all by myself searching the hundreds and countless countless files..k. what are you doing on your thread anything interesting I'd like to be a part it
And for the record you only have to change one file. its the "usb_otg" file enable from 0 to 1 and make sure you put it back to zero when you're done otherwise your phone won't charge..k
Thank you for figuring this out you Rock

Sorry for getting back to you sooo late. I'm involved in a LineageOS build for this phone. You can find the XDA thread in the LG Stylo 2 Plus forum. We also have a telegram group for the project. Hit me up on telegram (use my flair link) and I'll add you to it. Anyway, I made a Tasker profile to toggle the OTG state. Let me know if you want it. Also, theoretically, wouldn't every device with the SD430 be able to use this?

Sorry for being a newb, but cannot seem to save the change as mentioned above. Tried both Root Browser & ES File Explorer to no avail. I made sure that my TWRP is installed (rooted), also installed Busybox. All programs are granted the permission in SuperSU. Further, dp_dm file permission property shows rw-r-r. similar to the other two that I could change and save without issues. So in summary, I could change from 0 to 1 and save, but when I go back to confirm, it's reverted back to 0, with file timestamp properly reflecting current time.
FWIW, I verified that my 32GB Sandisk OTG Flashdrive & Kingston MobileLite G4 card reader worked to my surprise! So not sure what I'm missing from dp_dm value change omission.
TIA for any help!

THATS MESSING WITH THE HARDWATE ITSELF.. mine is just a software modification that is completely safe you don't need all that stuff that you posted screenshots of that's for sure
Here are the necessary Tasker tasks, made by me. Credit to @WoodEe23
Update (kinda...) if you plug in power, before you enable OTG, your phone will charge while it's OTG functions working .So you don't have to worry about having a full battery before you start it'll actually work with a power supply. But only if you have it plugged in with OTG adapter already inserted with power as well before you enable OTG function
IN UR FACE!!!! cell phone manufacturers, and mobile carriers, that decided to disable in the first place.....?why have compatible hardware for something like that but disable it... pretty dumb.. I guess they're like well they didn't spend that much money on the phone so we'll just take away this unique function, of this phone that is actually kind of greedy.. and just mean,:laugh but luckily there's people like me who can figure that stuff out and make it happen awesome

Is there any way we could possibly develop a kernel for the Stylo 2 plus that has OTG already enabled I mean last couple custom roms I used on the Stylo 2 plus claim to have OTG already enabled in the fs tab boats that it does but it doesn't work at all on this you modify the file I already mentioned before anyway you can help me with developing with kernel for this phone maybe even USB Wi-Fi adapter support

No, because I remember when I had this phone I found out it doesn't have enough pins for OTG. Although you can enable the switch with Tasker, it will disable your charging. So your best bet would be using Tasker with an on and off switch.

, I know for a fact that if it's even able to be enabled by changing a zero to one that a kernel can be developed that has it already enabled come on man you're not talking to his sixth grade class here

Please don't follow these horrible instructions for OTG on the MS550 LG Stylo 2 Plus phones....... Just go to DEV OPTS in settings and scroll down to USB Configuration. Once you have cables connected then on screen choose -->-->RNDIS (USB Ethernet)<--<-- mode. and you don't even have to root your phone for this. Yeah I prefer the Easy Lifestyle and not the Shoot My Brains Lifestyle!!!
Thats amazing for the use of Shadow Cloud Gaming!
