   2. Follow Instruction Given by the phone (e.g. Connect To USB, Right Click on the Phone icon on the Windows Explorer -> Manage Connection)
   
   
   3. Next time you're on the same Wifi network with the PC, just go to the same menu, tap the saved computer and press connect.
   
   


4. Mount a Shared folder into Your Xperia
   1. Share a folder in your computer/NAS, preferably as an SFTP share
   
   
   2. Go to Settings -> Storage -> Remote Shares

   7. Put SFTP login info into username and password field
   
   
   8. When Done, just go back one menu, and then switch it on

Some help for choose a little cheat topic

Hi everyone,

I was a legit player, a lot of time killed by cheaters... but always legit. I had a good account with good stuff, 1200h played, a lot of weapon and about only 60 kills on my players.

I've never cheated... But today i've been banned by fairfight, for nothing... no reason. I'm disapointed so now i want to use a little cheat with my other acc (i had PVP acc, and Farm acc). I was legit.. i've be banned so now i'll really cheat.

I've read the post for don't be instabann with cheat but i think if a use a thing like speedhack i'll be instant banned.

So can you help me to choose a cheat i can use without instabann ? An aimbot maybe or esp i don't know... not a big cheat with a lot of options... ect ect...

Thanks, and forgive my english.

[Q] Using some more internal memory, is it possible ? topic

As you can see most of the internal memory saved by system and cache is free.
System : 1.95 GB free of 2.65 (73% free)
Cache : 1.96 GB free of 1.99 GB (98% free)

Is there any way(preferably safe) to use at least some more from this wastage of space ?

I am using Samsung galaxy s4 gt-i9500, with cyanogenmod 11 20140317 nightly 4.4.2 KitKat With permissive selinux

[Q] Need some help to flash stock. topic

Okay, I'll start with the problem. After a few days I flashed the Moto G GPE Firmware using MotoTool, from the xda forums. Everything was great, but I downloaded a ROM (Paranoid Android), made a Backup, and flashed it as usual. When the phone booted, an encryption unsuccessful message popped up. I rebooted into recovery and restored my last backup. I saw in xda that the problem was probably generated by using the GPE version, so today I downloaded my stock firmware, flashed it, but the phone got stuck on the logo. Tried the same with another firmwares, and still got the same problem. I rebooted into the Bootloader, flashed TWRP, flashed the PhilZ GPE recovery, sideloaded PA again, got the same problem. Flashed CarbonROM (after doing every wipe and stuff), and got the same message. Tried CM11, didn't worked. But the problem is...

How can I correctly flash my original firmware if it's not working? I need to go back to the "normal" Moto G, so I can flash ROMs and stuff.

Some questions topic

Hi,

I have a GT-I9505 and I have some questions:

1. What is safer (without anything going wrong when Flashing); Flash via Odin or flash via Recovery (TWRP)?
2. Stock 4.4.2 firmware from Samsung or 4.4.2 Google Edition?
3. Which Google Edition 4.4.2 ROM is the stablest and the 'best'?

[Q] Note 3 stuck in some weird "Factory Mode" No lock screen topic

Hi Guys!

Sorry, I couldnt find any problem similar to mine regarding note 3.

Device: N900W8 Canadian (Rogers)

TLDR: After flashing a rom a second time (First time was perfect) phone says its in factory mode and now stock lockscreen doesnt work at all no matter what settings. In factory mode wifi is one of the settings it says isnt suppose to work but it does work, and Im extra confused.

Steps leading to the problem:

- Rooted using cf auto root
- twrp to backup entire stock rooted rom
- flashed Darthstalker v6
- phone works flawlessly, except with gps issues which I suspected was not a rom issue
- decided to test it out anyways, tried to restore my stock rooted backup but for some reason failed (Honestly have no idea why)
- flashed Darthstalker v6 again, complete clean install to see if GPS fixes itself

Phone now boots up normally, but on first boot up it showed a short popup that disappears shortly saying something like this
"Factory mode is ON, in this mode some settings such as wifi may not work blah blah blah"

Thing is, it does work, so far the only difference that I see from this mode is that I cant have a lock screen no matter what setting I put on it. Right now forced to use an alternative lockscreen (Go locker).

Just flashed Jedi Elite v5 yesterday, same issue as above, but everything else is working fine...

Thanks for the help guys!

[Q] Screen wont turn on after some time topic

Well i cant really find a good title for my problem.
Usually at night when my phone idle for a few hours its just "falls a sleep" or something
I can see the charging led or a green led if I have a message but no matter how much ill press the wake up button
the screen wont turn on, only if ill hold it for like 10-20 sec the phone will restart.
any idea how i can fix that ?

Thinking of going to custom roms, have some questions topic

I'm getting dissatisfied with my phone as time goes on. First it was just battery and everything else was still great, but now it's started to produce some weird hiccups and bugs.

Even though LG's software was the best stock software I've ever used, I'm thinking of going custom roms now. The problem is ; is it really worth the hassle and risk?

If you were using stock and went custom recently , I'm waiting for your experience reports. How's battery life? How does custom stuff work (like themes,mods,etc.) and are they stable? Is the phone stable in a general manner (missing alarms,resets,etc.)? These are the most critical points, hope you ll answer.

Thanks
