Open your file explorer, and navigate to:
C:\Users\Sagor\AppData\Local\LG Electronics\LG Bridge\SWUpgrade\PhoneLog
Change Sagor for your windows user name. There's a log file; PhoneSWUpgrade (maybe more than one, if so, open the latest dated one) Scroll down to the last you see: -> 18:51:45: [DLL]OpenURL url = http://pkg03.lime.gdms.lge.com/dn/d...1501825902&h=9df795682ab5a66d4102a40ca7277ffb
-> 18:51:45: [DLL]KDZ file size error Copy the link to your browser address bar, but delete everything after .kdz and change http://pkg03 to http://pkg02 and hit enter. The file will start to download. I know that's not the answer, you'd have to flash your phone, but it makes me wonder why LG Bridge is not doing it by itself?

[Q] ApplyRecovery.bat

this is gonna sounds stupid but i followed every step but i cant seem to get the file to be only ApplyRecovery.bat, thats how i named the files but it does only open notepad....like if it was reading ApplyRecovery.bat.txt
Step 5: create a text file using notepad, called ApplyRecovery.bat. Make sure it is not named "ApplyRecovery.bat.txt" . It will contain the following lines (copy/paste is fine)
i did it finally
For future reference, it might help others if you explained how you solved your problem. For example, given this issue where the file is opening in notepad, one of the following possibilities is apparent:
1. When saving the file, you did not enclose the file name in quotes, e.g. "ApplyRecovery.bat". Enclosing the file name in quotes overrides the automatic generation of extensions and saves the file exactly as you wish.
2. Batch files, files ending in .bat, were set to open in notepad instead of being ran when double-clicked. This would by necessity require you to delete the file association before the batch file would work.

[TWEAK]Replace HTC Dock mode app

Hello!
I have found a way to replace the standard dock mode app on titan to an app of your choice.
First of you will have to find the guid of the app you want to replace Dock mode with. For example i will use the GUID of spotify: ca8d6603-a9ae-4a05-8643-baad091ecdd1
!PLEASE NOTE THAT I DON`T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE!
1) First go to HKLM/Software/HTC/USBDriver/DockMode with a registry editor of your choice.
2) Here you need to change the Value named AccessoryDockModeGUID to the GUID of the GUID of the application you to popup when you put the phone in the cradle.
3)Open a file explorer of your choice(I used windows mobile device center) and go to "\Application Data\PUBLIC\DOCKMODE" and make a backup of the file named "DockMode".
4)Now open the file with a text editor. You will see the following: "3570f057-6c31-4751-a0a7-899820af6cf4 1 1".
5)In this file replace "3570f057-6c31-4751-a0a7-899820af6cf4" with the GUID of your app for this example "ca8d6603-a9ae-4a05-8643-baad091ecdd1".
6)You should now end up with something like this: "ca8d6603-a9ae-4a05-8643-baad091ecdd1 1 1"
7)Now save the file and reboot your phone!
I have attached the original DockMode file and the original DockMode GUID is: "3570f057-6c31-4751-a0a7-899820af6cf4" in case you forget to take a backup.

And for HTC Car mode app
1) First go to HKLM/Software/HTC/USBDriver/CarMode with a registry editor of your choice.
2) Here you need to change the Value named AccessoryCarModeGUID to the GUID of the GUID of the application you to popup when you put the phone in the cradle.
3)Open a file explorer of your choice(I used windows mobile device center) and go to "\Application Data\PUBLIC\CARMODE" and make a backup of the file named "CarMode".
4)Now open the file with a text editor. You will see the following: "0bfb1b34-aff6-4ac5-8952-9041fd94c760 1 1".
5)In this file replace "0bfb1b34-aff6-4ac5-8952-9041fd94c760" with the GUID of your app for this example "da8734ed-666a-4227-81ea-8fc937752d98".
6)You should now end up with something like this: "da8734ed-666a-4227-81ea-8fc937752d98 1 1"
7)Now save the file and reboot your phone!
Thanks. Just curious, what registry editors do you all prefer to use?

Editing the host file - new entry has no effect

Hi folks,
I'm developing a new version of a live website in WordPress with domain mapping so that the URL is like-for-like with the live site. On a PC, I just change my host file to point to the WordPress IP address.
I now need to test the WordPress site on a phone.
I have an old HTC Desire with Android 2.3.4 (rooted) that I'm trying to use, so need to add the WordPress IP to the host file.
Using ADB, I've managed to retrieve the hosts file from the phone, edit it and place it back on the phone using:
Code:
adb remount
adb pull /system/etc/hosts /hosts
[edited host file]
adb push /hosts /system/etc/hosts
To double-check that the hosts file really has updated, I've deleted hosts from my computer, then pulled it again from my phone. Opening it up in Notepad++ I can see that it does contain the new entry.
The strange thing is, if I open a web browser to the url I'm trying to map to the WordPress IP address, it still goes to the live website, not the WordPress server. I've verified this using PingTools - the returned IP address is that of the live server.
I'm guessing I need to flush the DNS but it seems the only way to do this is a reboot. But upon reboot, the new entry in the hosts file is gone and we're back to only "127.0.0.1 localhost", so I'm now at a loss.
Any thoughts on where to go from here?
EDIT
After doing the above, installing and loading 'Hosts tool' from Google Play, sometimes the new host entry is there, but most of the time the host file disappears from the phone completely! Looking through ASTRO file manager, it confirms the host file has vanished. Rebooting the phone gets it back, but then we're then back to only "127.0.0.1 localhost" in the host file
I've fixed the problem. For some reason, there needs to be a line feed after the last entry in the host file.
To do this, open the host file in Notepad++ and go the view menu > Show symbol > Show characters. Copy the LF character at the end of "127.0.0.1 localhost" and paste it to the end of each line if it doesn't already have the LF character at the end.
Android refreshes its DNS every 10 minutes, so it's then just a matter of waiting.

Backup and restore a Chrome extension?

I have an extension that is no longer available on the Chrome store. I'd like to be able to back it up on my Chromebook and restore it, since I think it will not be restored after I update the Chrome OS (it will presumably fetch the available extensions from the store).
My Chromebook is in developer mode. So I wonder can it be done from the shell?
I tried enabling developer mode in chrome://extensions, but pack extension does not allow me to see any system root directory, and I have the additional challenge of figuring out which extension it is in /home/chronos/user/Extensions/.
I'm not really sure where to go from here. Any help with this would be really appreciated!

Can you see the ID of the extension at the very bottom of its listing in chrome://extensions/? If you can.... I just tested out the following with an extension chosen at random, and it worked fine for me, although I suppose it may depend on the extension...
Copied the ID of the extension (at the very bottom of its listing in chrome://extensions/), then:
sudo su
find / -iname theidoftheextension
cp -a -r /home/chronos/user/Extensions/theidoftheextension /media/removable/UNTITLED/
Back in chrome://extensions/
Clicked Packed extension > chose the folder above the one containing manifest (in my case /media/removable/UNTITLED/theidoftheextension/0.1.2_0/)
Clicked Pack extension
Opened /media/removable/UNTITLED/theidoftheextension/ in file browser
Dragged the newly-created packed extension /media/removable/UNTITLED/theidoftheextension/0.1.2_0.crx over chrome://extensions/
It installed! Actually I tested it three times, resulting in three copies of the extension. Having said that, if you only have one copy of the extension, perhaps it would be better to test the .crx out on another copy of Chrome first, in case it somehow overwrites/breaks the copy you have installed.

Thank you, Nolirum!
I did as you suggested, and installed Chromium in Crouton to test it. I get the error "This can only be added from the Chrome Web Store" when I try dragging in the .crx.
When I try 'Load unpacked extension' option in chrome://extensions I get the following error:
Failed to load extension from: /Volumes/KINGSTON/theidoftheextension/5.0_0
Cannot load extension with file or directory name _metadata. Filenames starting with "_" are reserved for use by the system.

I saw this on Stackoverflow about the error. I deleted the leading underscore from metadata folder and it works! Yay!!
https://stackoverflow.com/questions...ebstore-throws-error-package-is-invalid-detai
No problem!
Out of interest, when you dragged the .crx onto Chromium, and got the error, was that with dragging it directly into the list of extensions in the chrome://extensions/ window (where you see the icons, details, extension IDs etc)? Just wondering, as I get that error if dragging a .crx on to the browser address bar or on a webpage, but not if I drag it into the extensions list directly.
In any case, interesting info about the metadata folder nonetheless. I remember having to do the same (deleting the underscore) for some extension I was trying to edit. It's reassuring to to read that _metadata is just Web store hashes, and that modifying it shouldn't affect functionality.

Yes, I was dragging into the extensions list. When I try it a little popup says something like "drop to install" then the error.
Interesting. I don't get that error (tried on Chromium, too). Perhaps it depends on the extension. Thanks for checking.
