Is it just me or does the google drive app take forever to check for new items? This has happened before yesterday's outage.

I was digging around to replace the boot animation and I noticed there's storage/emulated/0 and storage/emulated/legacy, both of which seem to contain the same files what's this for

Is there a xposed module that can fix the annoying bluetooth keyboard issues in ICS? I type "hello there" and sometimes it comes out as "heeello thereeee"

Made my own boot animation out of this although the framerate is terrible regardless of what I set it to in desc.txt for some reason, possibly due to lag (it's only got 85 frames/6mb though) [img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/672662/Dreamcast3.gif[/img] I'm trying to figure out if there's any way to add the sound now since apparently my ROM doesn't have a boot sound by default so I can't just change it
so apparently the htc one has occasional sudden death syndrome rip ht cone 2013-2014

I made a boot animation based off my avatar and an intro I made for my YouTube channel. Yay for narcissism!

Can anyone tell me why the files that I copy onto my new 64 gb card seem to be corrupted? I'm not even entirely sure if that's the real note 3 I'm holding right now. Is there any way to check if it's some ripoff thing or not?

[QUOTE=garychencool;43679706]Most cards with capacities larger than 32GB come pre-formatted in exfat.

I would think that the card is broken but my computer can copy to it without any problems. I'm really confused. Never mind it works now after formating it for like 15 times. What an odd thing. Nope still not working properly. Only half of the files work.

ok so i installed the default samsung ROM on my galaxy note 1 and removed CWM (i put back whatever att/samsung use) and my phone booted into android 2.3.6. I did this so i can sell my note after my nexus 5 is delivered tomorrow. i checked for a system update and the phone couldn't find any, i tried again and it told me that i had to wait 24 hours I'M STUCK WITH A GINGERBREAD PHONE FOR A DAY [IMG]http://www.sherv.net/cm/emoticons/guns/suicide.gif[/IMG] [editline]26th January 2014[/editline] my phone is too out of date to run CHROME i am dead, this is hell

Every year processing power keeps doubling and doubling yet manufacturers keep going "16GB storage is all you will ever need also fuck SD cards" and soon you will only be able to install 5 games before you are out of space.

It's like playing games on your computer back in the 90's except not being allowed to play off the disc.[/QUOTE] That is usually because reading it off the disc was too slow and/or the files were very compressed and reading and decompressing on the fly would have been too much for the cpu to handle. Regardless I agree, it seems like stuff like mugahpixelz and gigahhertzez double but internal storage doesn't. But the good news is large capacity sd cards and internet services are getting faster and cheaper. But the 16GB is enough and fuck your sd cards is stupid. 32GB without an sd card is better but I remember I always wanted to get the highest capacity internal storage phone (which I think tops out at 64GB and is always going to be a special order or you have to buy it unlocked from somewhere) and slap on a 64GB microSD card on it. It would be my new media consumption device. Right now I do that with my phone with a 32GB sdcard, I have offline maps of Ontario, plenty of music (because I can't stream, I dont use Google Play Music anymore because PowerAMP is better and I usually listen to the same music anyways. I use SoundCloud to listen to the latest music off my stream and I don't have mobile data at all or WiFi all of the time), Wikipedia offline which is useful and I've used it a handful of times, tons of photos and videos and some games. Maybe it's just me but it's my particular situation where I download a lot of stuff for offline use. I'm not on wifi all of the time, I don't even have a data plan, I download youtube videos (on a super fast connection) to watch at home or whenever my Internet at home dies (special case: it gets unplugged often). I've watched hundreds of hours of YouTube videos, TV shows and movies off that 3-inch screen in the past 2.5 years. Maybe it's just me that I'm the only one who does this. I don't have a laptop for it, I can't use the desktop all of the time, can't watch youtube videos off the TV (it's a pain in the ass anyways) all the time so my phone is really my personal computer. Much more than a block that can make phone calls. I've told this story before but I've written entire assignments and essays using my phone. Yeah. Now don't tell me 16GB is enough for me because it isn't. I'm looking at you Google. Now where's my 64GB Nexus 5? Clearly I'm just a content media whore.
