    Warning: Possible bug in built-in file manager could cause data loss when moving files.

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 09:39 AM PDT

    Note: This is not a support request, but I just wanted to share it here as a warning, and I am not the first user to experience this.


    As we know, Google sadly has pretty much locked down the file system to third-party applications over the years, starting in 2014 and then deterioating over time, citing security reasons, rather than giving users options to grant selected applications access for data portability purposes, forcing users to use their precluded tools that sometimes are not good enough (to say it politely).

    While I moved files from the internal storage to a USB OTG flash drive, using Google's precluded file manager, the space storage on the target flash drive got exhausted, aborting the file transfer.

    However, the photos that were not moved yet got deleted from the source (internal storage), because apparently a bug in the file manager caused it to delete all source files, thinking they were already transferred, while they were not yet.

    And because they were stored on the internal storage (rather than MicroSD), they are near-impossible to recover.

    My advice: Always copy-verify-delete rather than moving. Or use an FTP home server for file transfering.

    I hope my warning will do good for you.


    Side note:

    2012 [Redacted] File Explorer (before it turned into ravenous adware since circa 2016) was better than Google's current file manager. Next to the more navigable and tabbed user interface, it never had data loss causing bugs. (I am not promoting [name redacted], just sharing my experiences. I have criticized them for turning into adware.)

    Desktop mode for Asus ROG Phone 3

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 10:52 AM PDT

    This is a guide for connecting the ROG phone 3 to external display and using desktop mode without any 3rd party apps or root access.

    For this process you'll need type c to HDMI adapter, PC with adb installed on it and wireless mouse/Android remote.

    1) Enable developer options and under APPS section, enable freeform windows.

    2) connect your device to a computer with the Android ADB installed, and run the following command (one-line):

    adb shell settings put global force_desktop_mode_on_external_displays 1

    3) Restart the phone

    4) simply connect your phone (The side port on the ROG 3) to your external display using a USB Type-C to HDMI adapter.

    5) Connect a wireless mouse/remote to the phone.

    6) Enjoy.
