I'm following this guide on downgrading the DHD from the latest update.
All is well until I get to this step:
Put PD98IMG.zip to your SD card. You can close the cmd.

How do I do this? What command is there?
I cannot just drag and drop cause my SD card doesnt show up in the Windows explorer?

When you are inserting your adb command as the instruction, your device is still connected with CHARGE ONLY mode,
To insert the .zip file, you need to change it DISK DRIVE mode, and your memory drive will be shown,
You can change it by showing your notification bar, or go to setting-connet to pc, and choose DISK DRIVE,
Put the zip in the root directory, and reboot to bootloader, the DHD will now flashing the rom,
Hopes this help,
BR
Or you may be able to do it from command line using adb.
adb push PD98img.zip /sdcard
I'm can't remember though there might be a limit on file size when pushing like that.

Hey, do you know the background to Linux terminal? make sure you're in the right directory "pwd", and do "ls" to see if your folder you're needing is in there.

Hey thanks for the reply... can u be more detailed in your commands? the commands I used were suppose to pull EVERYTHING for my internal storage. these look like adb shell commands... I used the windows command prompt to pull my files before... after I CD\ to the adb tools folder
anybody have a command line that could tell me what is on my internal storage? everything including hidden folders? like drowsing by directory
PWD will show the directory you're in, and LS will show files and directories within that directory, use CD (change directory) to navigate and make sure you find it. You can use a push command to move the file to your SD Card, and then get them that way onto your PC to back up or just keep them on the SD Card..
Hello!
I have some files on the internal storage, from the downlad folder, that i want to copy to my sdcard, but theres no file explorer that will let me do it. I've tried both Root Browser and Root File Manager. They just give me an error saying 'Operation Failed!".
If i plug it into my PC through MTP and tries to copy the files, either to the SDcard or my own computer, windows 8 gives me an "Unspecified error" or saying "The device is off, or file not found" (or similar).
What is wrong? Why cant i move the files from the internal storage? Hope you can help me.

Sounds like an sdcard issue
Try copying files within the sdcard and within the internal storage. If it fails only when copying within the sdcard, remove it and try on a card reader on your PC.

I can without problems copy files onto or from the SDcard(from PC), but not the _internal storage_, thats the problem. The SDcard (partition?) works fine.

To clarify, do you mean the /sdcard/download folder ? I use X-plore if that helps!

To clarify, i meant the download folder on the internal storage chrome etc., saves files in that folder..
Wow that seems like a nice file manager, and it does the trick! No errors what so ever. But how come it works, but other root file managers doesnt?
And how come it doesnt work in windows? :<
Something about permissions?

I must admit that I didn't think X-plore would work either but am pleased it did; it does do pretty much everything as far as files and folders go.
I've not had a similar problem and cannot see a reason why the other methods you have tried don't work.
I just uprgraded to the lollilop gpe OTA. Everything is working as normal, camera, Infrared, light, wifi, LTE radio, etc... I am also rooted.
However, ES File Explorer is still unable to modify the contents of the External-SDCard. I tried doing a simple copy operation from the internal-SDCard to the External-SDCard and there was a prompt that came up (looks like it is from android OS and not from the application) which asks me to select the "root folder" of the External-SDCard.
Following that prompt, I get to the screen where I should click on the "External SDCard" icon on the left of the screen, but the when I do that, the application named "Documents" reports that it has stopped and then it sends me back to the paused copy operation in ES File Explorer and then that operations fails...
Anyone have any clue if this is supposed to work straight out of the "box"? Or do I need to download kernel patches or go modify platform.xml again like in 4.4.4 GPE?
Thanks!

The sdcard not being visible via PC is annoying.
Is there any fix for this yet?

Yes, here is a work-around
Install Terminal Emulator then type:
Code:

Thanks. Although the above says it resolves an issue with "The PC" not being able to see the sdcard, and my issue is with an android application (ES File Explorer) not being able to write to the sdcard, I still went ahead and ran the suggested command and although the command succeeded, the android application still can't write to the sdcard...
although it won't solve all your problems with writing to external SD card on the HTC One Lollipop, you can fix the crashing of the "Documents" app you described by making sure your micro SD card has a label (name): put the sd card in a sdcard reader in your PC/Laptop and give it a name.
Hi. Yes, you are correct I found out about the label being blank causing the crash and adding a label to the external sdcard partition fixed the crash in ES File Explorer. With the crash now gone i was able to grant ESFile Explorer write access to the entire external SDCard, and the app is now working flawlessly.
I also found this thread: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=67570#c4444
So, based on that thread's discussion, it looks like the app developers of any app that needs/wants write access to the external sdcard just need to change their applications to start using the new API, just like the ESFile Explorer guys did.

Try running these adb commands one after the other

I have a strange problem and I haven't been able to find a resolution online. I'm hoping someone smarter than me can offer a solution.
I have an AT&T LG G3 (LG-D850). When I got it, it had stock KK. I rooted it with Bump and everything was cool. I stayed with stock.
Last night I upgraded it to Lollipop using the stock, bump'd LG-D850 20F Lollipop 5.0.1 ROM from autoprime. I didn't run into any problems with the install. The phone appeared to be working fine.
However, today I'm having trouble with the internal storage. When I try to download a file from the internet, it's failing. In the stock browser, it just fails. Downloads says "<Unknown> Failed." In Firefox, it tells me "Cannot download file because SD card is in use." In Chrome, it tells me "No SD card."
I'm also not able to move files to or from internal storage. I can cut, copy, and paste files from one folder on my external card to another on my external. However, I can't cut, copy, or paste files from one folder in my internal storage to another folder in my internal or external storage. I've tried both the stock file explorer as well as FX.
I tried the SDFix app from NewApp on the off chance that it would help (I read somewhere it would also work on L), but it had no effect.
I can still download apps from the Play store and install them. However, if I create a new file in QuickOffice, I can't save it ("Failed to save document.") I can navigate to root and copy/cut/paste files from the data/app folder to my external card and other folders. I think the issue is the system/sdcard folder. The owner/group on the folder is root and read, write, and exec are all checked.
Does anyone know what the permissions on that folder should be? Or if that's really my problem at all?
Thanks.

@suljo94 Awesome! That fixed it! :good:
Googleing restorecon brought up a whole bunch of hits about this problem along with this solution. Too bad I couldn't find the answer unless I already knew the answer
this should be added to the autoprime thread or on the q&a for all variants.
Is there anyway to fix internal sdcard? i get bricket on a F460K and cant install .zip files in recovery philz, when i choose zip from/sdcard resolves "Couldn't open directory" and "ni files found" but i can put files in "sdcard" via adb =/, anyone know a way to fix it?. thanks!.

I tried using this command instead an it worked for me.
"adb shell

restorecon -FR /data/media/0"
P.S i'm using no SD Card
Would this work for media (ie. mp3)?
I can't seem to find a fix.. All my music doesn't show in any music app and can't find a solution.. Already checked for .nomedia files, cleared media storage and forced a rescan for media and and formatted internal and external SD cards... No luck.

Fantastic!! I had the same problem with my LG G3 D850. I installed the stock rom from the TWRP recovery and was with this same problem. After performing this process my problem was solved !! But the pictures of the Camera application are not saved in the internal memory. What should I do to fix this??

@P760x when you type adb devices, what do you get? If it doesn't list any devices you probably need to reinstall the phone drivers on your computer. If it does list your phone, then there's something else wrong.

(i'm getting nothing)That's the whole point. My pc searches and founds my device. It perfectly worked on 4.1x JB, it founds instantly.
For some reason,when i connect my phone into mtp (Files transfer to pc) mode my pc can't find any items in phone,so does extraction applications in my phone,it's just all empty, even though i have gApps,custom kdz.
I tried with terminal emulator (android version) - it says permission denied,so i think that requires root? I would get instantly but i can't transfer or download anything to my phone...?

@P760x I noticed that I can't connect my phone in MTP mode unless developer options are on and USB debugging is on. I didn't have that problem on KK, only Lollipop.
If adb devices still doesn't list your phone after that, manually download and reinstall the phone drivers from LG. I've had multiple occasions when Windows eats those drivers, so that's the first place to start.
Hopefully that helps.
