    Is the Android version 4.2 (I think S4 ships with 4.2)?

    If yes, it might be difficult to recover the files as Android uses folder emulation for /sdcard. Basically one folder within the /data partition (internal memory) of the phone is used as sdcard, and external sdcard (if any) might be mounted to some alternate location. This was chosen by Google because it fits well with their multi-user support and manufacturers anyway started shipping with bigger internal memories as internal memory got cheaper.

    Now, the problem with this approach is that /data (internal memory) uses linux filesystem (generally ext2) and if /sdcard (which is now actually a folder under /data) is directly exposed as USB mass storage, Windows PC's would detect them as unknown filesystem and offer to "format" the sdcard" - which is not what Google wants it's users to even accidentally do - so they removed USB MS support. MTP and CTP are filesystem-agnostic (not dependent on filesystem) and can be used with any filesystem internally.

    I'm really not sure what options are there for you, but if what I said above is the case, you might have to look for ext2 recovery tools. Going little advanced you could probably use root / recovery and use 'dd' or Recovery's backup option to take .img or disk backup of internal sdcard (or /data if internal sdcard option is not available) - copy the backup disk image file to a linux PC, mount it and use linux based ext2 filesystem recovery tools to look for the photos in that disk backup.

    Where is your friend based? It's an interesting engineering problem, if logistics is not an issue, I can try to help.

    Want to port my daughter's Reliance GSM Prepaid number to some good service provider in West UP. Will the procedure laid out on page 1 work, or is there any change?

    Yes, recently did 2-3 porting - same process - send SMS, get port code, apply with new operator, 7 days bingo - new network. Actually 7 days is approximate, got port Uninor to RCDMA in 4 days, whereas port Uninor to Aircel took 7 working days.

    One more thing... Are you able to listen to mp3 songs...??? If by chance you had inserted headphones... The set still may be in headphone mode...!! <br /><br />

    I think this must have been the problem cause on putting the headset in and out a couple of times, the phone started respinding normally.

    Had same problem in my Kyocera Rise. If the problem keeps repeating, get this app from Market - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devandroid.headseticon

    It puts a notification whenever there is an headphone inserted - that would help you find out if your phone is thinking there is a headphone inserted even when there is none.

    Can gsm be used on this by any means?

    Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

    I was checking the same thing. Looks like making GSM work needs both hardware hack and software hack, some hacker on xda has successfully done the hardware hack whereby he's able to use GSM SIM cards, but the software hack is yet to be made for the phone to connect to GSM network and might take a long time.

    TLDR - not possible.

    price is total yum,

    will be gone in no time :)

    all the best Saurabh :)

    I'm very tempted. Just that I've got no money for this thing now. All the best with the sale, if the handset hangs around for a day or two, I might manage to gather funds B)

    Before i answer let me update all once more , this is a fantastic phone this Motorola Electrify M , uber cool and total wow :) just a look at the screen and form factor and anyones gonna fall in love ( i aint jokin or exaggerating )

    Just to add, I got a RAZR M for a friend recently and got the chance to use it for 3-4 days before handover - this is an absolute beauty - It actually made many heads look at it in bus/train/etc. The performance is also very good - I especially liked the tasker like MOTO SmartActions app (let's you automate many day-to-day things).
