[Q] google backup & restore does not work anymore? topic

So my last backup was about 30 days. And for some reason its doesn't back up any more. Its a pain in the butt since I have to clean flash every 2 weeks or sometimes less. Is there a fix for this. Can I reset my google account perhaps that will work?

No need for task killers anymore!!! topic

So I'm currently back on Stock ZV6 waiting patiently for the Lollipop update (will return to root once lollipop is rooted) because I want lollipop as soon as it's released OTA. Since I don't have root anymore, I am unable to delete stock apps that potentially slow the phone down. Since I am not on root, I no longer use Greenify as it is not the same without root. My phone has been draining throughout the day even with normal use (texting, snapchat, facebook, clash of clans, etc.) and it would be around 20-30% at the end of the day (11-12pm-ish). I never had that bad of battery life on root.

I was able to look in the developer settings in the settings app and turn on "Do not keep activities". I have found that turning that on basically turns off multitasking and kills every app (stops it from running like Greenify or task killer apps do) after you exit.

My battery has been so much better and I no longer think I will ever use Greenify or any task killer in the future (with or without root) because of this stock feature.

I'd thought I'd share :) <3

[Q] ADB SHELL CHMOD 644 ,nothing is working anymore... topic

Hello everybody
I needed to push a file to /system/app but since I was on stock rom & kernel, that didnt support adb root.
I needed to be able to push the backup file after restart but ADBD Insecure couldn't patch after restart.
my phone is optimus G E975 , fully stock 4.1.2
I found this command which could do the thing BUT :
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /system

since it didnt restore to default after restarted I tried to restore it myself(didn't work) with:
adb shell
su
chmod 644 /system
but after that every thing force stopped & after restart, phone can't boot anymore,just when want t start boot animation, it just cant & goes to recovery every time!:(
even Hard reset didnt work, but as stock recovery supports adb, I wish you guys can help me. but It seems adb shell gives permission denied(13) in recovery. please someone help...
Anyway am I able to flash in download mode????? (for the last solution)
any help to change that CHMOD to 777 in recovery or something else?
any help appreciated so much!

[PROBLEM] proximity sensor isn't working anymore! topic

Hi all
I'm on tw lollipop with root permissions and since some days my proximity sensor isn't working!
On call when I put my phone near my ear the screen won't turn off, but for example if I use air gestures for skipping tracks on music player it works. Trying a tester found on the play store, the proximity sensor is still far even if I put my finger on it. Dialing *#0*# shows me this:


Consider that numbers in ADC (idk what they are) increase to from ~100 to 1000 when I get close with the finger

Someone can please help me solving this? Thanks

Downgraded to KK from Lollipop, can't access SD anymore topic

Hi. Sorry for my bad english.

I wanted to try lollipop, so did a nandroid backup of my stock 4.4.2 Touchwiz KK (using Philztouch recovery) and flashed official 5.0.2 blispop rom for my device (Samsung Galaxy Note 8 N5110). After a few days I decided to roll back, wiped all, restored backup and everything fine.

Except... now I can't access internal SDcard anymore.

Weird thing, it deppends on the app. Some can access, some can't. Examples:

Stock file manager ("mis archivos") can R/W SDcard normally.
But ES File Explorer can't. Internal storage appears empty, and if I try to put any file it says I don't have permissions.
But Root Explorer can.
Chrome & stock browser can't. If I try to download any file, it fails (it says it hasn't permission to create folder).
I have a mp3 there. If I try to play it, many players (Google play, VLC, etc) fails, but stock music player plays it normally...
And so on.

¿Any ideas to fix that issue? Thank you very much.
