July 1[edit]

Internet fax - per page charge, no monthly fee[edit]

Is there an Internet fax service that does not have a monthly charge, and charges only per page? All of the ones I found have a monthly fee, but I need this only a couple of times per year, so I don't want a monthly charge. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 00:36, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Check out this service. They claim no monthly charges, no hidden fees and no contracts; simply a per-page charge - exactly what you're looking for. --Yellow1996 (talk) 01:12, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

thank you. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 23:16, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

256th notes in MuseScore[edit]

Does anyone here have any ideas how I could "fake" beamed 256th notes (for printing, playback unnecessary but would be cool to have) in MuseScore? Double sharp (talk) 10:45, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, figured out a way:
  1. Use a 4:2 tuplet so that they will playback correctly as 256th notes but look like 128th notes.
  2. Use "Lines" to put a line between the first and second "256th notes".
  3. Make the line thickness 0.55sp. It will then have the same width as a beam and you can put it in as such.
Are there any less kludgy ways? Double sharp (talk) 10:52, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Also, is there a way to get 128th notes without using tuplets? Double sharp (talk) 10:53, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can rescore your music so that it does not need 1/256th notes. If you double the tempo, you can notate the same music with simpler measure division. Nimur (talk) 16:11, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That's exactly what I happen to be typesetting. ;-) Double sharp (talk) 13:56, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I just rooted my Samsung Galaxy Victory with SuperSU, Odin, TWRP and BusyBox. How come I still can't transfer my apps to SD with AppMgr Pro III?[edit]

I got help from this video and an Android Forum post about how to root. I managed to create a successful root of the phone.

However, when I try to use AppMgr Pro III, Easy App2SD and Link2SD, they still won't let me transfer to my SD card. My SD card had 1.83 GB available, and my SD card has 29 GB available.

AppMgr Pro III still says "The device does not have a real primary external storage, or the primary external storage is emulated. Moving app to SD function cannot be supported by this device." How do I make it "change its mind" now that I've rooted?

Easy APP2SD still shows a pop-up that says "This device does not support APP2SD function." How would I change its mind?

On Link2SD, when I select all 90 movable applications, and press "Move to SD card," another popup gives: "Warning: App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card."

I don't feel sure enough about what Link2SD is asking me to do.

So since I've already rooted the phone, how else do I enable my phone and its app-moving apps to move apps to SD card and still let them operate like they would while still in the internal memory? I've hoped for a solution for a month, so thanks in advance. --70.179.161.230 (talk) 11:20, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know much about this topic, but maybe you can connect it to the computer and run the shell from there? Is it similar like the Android SDK emulator, where you can run the shell from the computer, maybe it is the same. 190.60.93.218 (talk) 16:43, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
