View 9 Replies View RelatedI bought a Kyocera Rise for my wife (big mistake - piece o' junk). She broke the sliding display off of the keyboard - ribbon and all so I transferred the service to an old LG Optimus. But I have no idea what her Gmail address was to be able to get her contacts. Is there anyway to recover the email address or transfer the contacts. The Rise still works, it just doesn't have a screen. I could plug the USB port into a PC and probably read it that way, but I have no idea how to get to the contacts. I don't think we exported the contacts to the SD card.

My question is if I delete a contact from my phone that is also on what's app then while deleting that contact android shows this message:-"This contact contains information from multiple accounts. Information from read only accounts will be hidden in your contacts lists, not deleted". This means that contact is not being deleted but hidden somewhere in contacts lists. I want to know how can I recover those hidden contacts.

Ive tried several software and Windows and Ubuntu see my phone as a MTP device, but somehow the software doesnt detect it, even when i put it in USB debugging mode or connect it as a PTP device.
I am brand new to having a smart phone and the Samsung Galaxy S4 is my first one. I believe I swiped the phone icon into trash bin as I was trying move it, it disappeared and now I cannot locate it anywhere.

could the old database file have been orphaned or has my phone a galaxy note moved the file location of the sms database file ? or can i revert back to an old version ?
My phone is a maguro (Galaxy Nexus GSM), bootloader unlocked , ClockworkMod Recovery and Cyanogenmod11.
I found online several method to delete the code/pattern security.
Some methods use USB debugging (I have a Tasker script that disables it at every boot).
I also found a clever and powerful tool that really scares me. There is a zip that deletes the Gesture.key and Password.key file.Are there other methods from which I should protect my phone and my data?
I followed all of the instructions and backed up my contacts using the downloaded most recent update service. Now i have updated my phone to android 2.1 and i try to recover my contacts. in the update screen it went to 97% and then an error. But realistically it has only imported say 30% of my contacts, and the contacts it has recovered it has duplicated so there are 2 entries for every piece of information. Can someone from SE please inform me whether they are working on a fix that we can download that will rectify this issue or do i need to manually source all of my contact information all over again. If so is there any way of loading the backup information on the computer?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just bought a Samsung Galaxy S3 - very nice looking device - to replace my old and clunky Sony Ericsson Xperia X10. And I want to transfer all my phone contacts across. On my Xperia, I've got "Phone contacts", and gmail contacts. I tried to import all my phone contacts by first exporting them to a simgle file, and transferring that file to the Samsung. And now I've got this vast list containing, it seems, everybody who I've ever called or emailed, including various names who I don't recognize at all. Is there any way (maybe a specialized app) of keeping my phone contacts and gmail contacts separate? And how do I manage my vast list of contacts?

When I connected my cellphone to the internet my cellphone contacts got contaminated with all my gmail contacts. This really pisses me off.
Aside from manually going through and deleting them, how can i turn this feature off?
I don't want my contacts to be synced with Google. IIRC, this was possible in 2.x. Having upgraded to 4.0.4, I'm not able to disable Google contacts.
I'd like to:
1. Disable contact sync (this works)
2. Change all contacts from Google contacts to phone contacts
3. Add new contacts as phone contacts by default.
Using the "Accounts and Sync" settings, I'm only able to deselect "Sync Contacts", but I can't find a way to move the contacts and disable the creation of new Google contacts.
how google accounts work. I got a phone previously owned by a family member and all his contacts are still in the phone. I was wondering if it is possible to delete all the contacts on the phone but not affect his google account contacts? Also, if i reformat the phone, will this delete all his google contacts?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have contacts on my Droid with phone numbers that the same contact in Gmail do not have. Some history:
I have a Droid 3. My Accounts include my main Gmail acct, a gmail acct I hardly ever use (no contacts issues there), a pop3 account and a Touchdown-Exchange account which I dont need because Im not connected to that Exchange server any longer. Some time ago, since I wasnt on the Exchange server any more, I deleted the Touchdown account. Then I realized some or most of my Google contacts had disappeared from the phone. Thinking that this would delete the same contacts from the Gmail servers when it synced, I immediately restored the Touchdown account, restoring the lost contacts to the phone. Are these 2 issues related?

Should I get the new phone, or I can just recover this one? I downloaded Droid X 2.2 Full SBF leaked, and still have the problem. It says battery is low, and I dont think its charging my phone even when I connect my droid to charger. Can I charge my battery not turning on my phone? It turns on itself when connected to its charger.

I've run Hexamob Recovery PRO from Android Market in my smartphone and it recovered very good some deleted files from my vfat storage folders (both internal and external sd card).
But the smartphone version is not running correctly in my Motorola Xoom because it don't detect internal storage (fuse). I asked to developers about a tablet version and they said me they are working in a tablet version but fuse file system is very hard to manage. Any other app to recover my deleted files from a fuse file system?
Heres what happens when i try to access recovery mode:

Today android phones are coming with an internal storage which is called the internal sdcard. Because of this the need for external sdcards is vanishing day by day. But when your phone is factory reset you lost all the data stored in it while in case of external sdcard you have an option to save your data. If you accidently lost all the data stored in your phone then don't worry I have a solution to get it back. This trick will work on phones having mass storage mode support, if you are running android 4.1 jellybean and above then root your phone to get mass storage( the tutorial is different for different phones),
If you have accidently lost all your files, photos and videos from your phone then after this do not copy new files to the phone. This also include clicking photos and capturing videos. If you copy new files to the phone then you are actually reducing your chances to get back your deleted photos and videos and other files. In short just don't download anything to your phone, do not use the internet on your phone till the time when you get back your lost files back.
This trick will only work on android phones having mass storage mode and MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) options. If your device is rooted then you can enable mass storage mode on your android phone. After enabling mass storage mode you can get back deleted photos, videos and all files from the internal storage of any android phone.
Requirements
1. Recuva for Windows 7, Windows 8
2. A USB data cable.
Now Follow The Steps Below
-Download and install recuva. While installation do not uncheck any option.
-Now connect your android phone in mass storage mode. Connect it to pc a notification will appear in the phone, tap it to enable mass storage.
-Now open My computer and you will see Removable disk.
-Open recuva and click Next, on the next step All Files will auto selected. Again click Next. Then choose In a specified location and click Browse.Choose the removable disk or MTP disk here and click Next.
-In next step put a check mark in Enable Deep Scan and click Start.
-After scan is finished you will see the list of all deleted files. Green circles is means that file can be recovered while red circle means unrecoverable file.
-Now check the box next to Filename to select all files. Click Recover on the bottom right and choose Desktop .Your deleted files will be recovered.
I own a Sony Xperia S LT26i and yesterday i broked my screen/touchscreen. I'm wondering how to recover my files without using touchscreen. The main problem is the unlocking, the phone is functional but i can't unlock without screen to use Sony PC Companion software and access internal storage.
The phone is detected by PC when i'm pluggin' USB cable, i see the partition but i can't see files.
Here a few screen's with the detected phone:
Are the framework-res and SystemUI apk's the only files that are involved in the boot process?
I only ask because I am currently stuck in a boot animation loop. I am able to communicate with my phone via adb during the animation loop and while in the bootloader recovery. Wiping the data and and factory resetting doesn't solve the problem.
I am thinking about pulling those two files from my wife's phone which is the same phone (Samsung Proclaim) and pushing them to mine.
I have a [Gen2] ZTE v9 Tab which had 2.2 as the stock OS which I managed to get upgraded to 2.3 using modcore everything was gr8. I pushed my luck little further and tried to install Android ICS in order to do that I did a TPT using image file and after doing that my tab is bricked.
It's not booting into the OS I tried to get into the FTM mode but that doesn't work now only thing that work's is the ADB I tried the recovery methods that can be done through ADB but it says "sh:/sbin/recovery xxxx" missing.
What I think is that the system partition was recreated and Is there any way that I can get the system files on to the tab using ADB or a way to copy entire directory on to the tab using the ADB.
Got the system to boot to FTM but when I try to flash it the software fails and gives a error "Failed to Get aprmg x x x " some thing like that if there's a way to skip this I'll be able to get my tab back to working condition.
Recently I've tried to port CWM to my device following this tutorial and it bricked... It did not boot in any mode (Recovery, Fastboot or Normal) after doing this (stuck on motorola logo/boot menu).
Managed to flash the XT920_2_290_2014 back on my device and unbrick it, but I want to install XT920_2_310_2014 back.
There are some Stock ROMs available on the internet, but these ROMs are outdated compared to my original ROM...
The ROMs available are: XT920_2_290_2014_A01_MP (Tim Brazil) and XT920_2_290_2009_A01_MP (Retail), and my original ROM was XT920_2_310_2014_A01_MP.
The backup script in this tutorial created a few files files: recovery.img, system.img, boot.img...
Is there any way to "reflash" these backups to my device?
Here is a printscreen from my original ROM:

And a printscreen from the "new" ROM:
