May the force be with me!

That's the answer I was looking for. TY sir!! Now on my nexus 7 running 4.4.2 (actually I had the same issue on 4.4), the sounds just don't seem to show under notifications as they should. /storage/emulated/0 is symlinked to /sdcard on my device. I do see the files in the folders. Permission...

lol... sorry. I have plenty of faith, I'm just having a hard time understand how something as simple as adding additional sounds seems to be so difficult.

Stock are oggs. I'll have to try converting them.

I'm confused I guess. The default media folder is /system/media/audio/ Ringtones, alarms and notifications are all located there. I don't want to add files to these folders since this would require me to write to system (and thus keep giving me ota update headaches). Instead there are 3...

Man that's just lame. The Notifications, Alarm and Ringtones folders are getting automatically created though on /sdcard/ so I was hoping that this could be a user accessible way to drop the files rather than having to rw the /system folder and messing things up. I also did notice the Google...

right on... another thing to try that seems to be working apparently is to 1) plug the phone into the charger then force the reboot via recovery (press power and vol up then select reboot). Phone will actually get out of the boot loop and load normally then charges though it still doesn't appear...

update on this... factory reset the device - relocked bootloader and unrooted the phone (again Odin works fine as the USB connection did work while in bootloader mode). The phone still doesn't get recognized by Windows via USB and does not charge after the factory reset. What a waste of time and...

same boat here. batt charges fine in cradle. phone is recognized by USB while in bootloader screen. same issue with new spare batt so it's not a batt issue. interestingly batt seems to be charging if we put the phone in bootloader mode. wife s3 had the same issue. had to wipe it a couple of...

pick me!!!!!!
