[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
No idea about the BCT, but, the bootloader does read it and then passes that info. to the kernel when it loads it (and then the kernel displays: "Kernel command line:...").

From the kernel messages, it looks to me like you have a 1.2-based bootloader (check Tap-UI version in Settings to confirm) and a Froyo ROM. Am I correct in this, or is there a mismatch with what you last flashed? Precise details would help.

Pershoot has 4 different kernel zip files. Make sure you installed the correct version for your set up:

For Froyo ROMs with 1.1 bootloader.

For Froyo ROMs with 1.2 bootloader.

For Gingerbread ROMs with 1.1 bootloader.

For Gingerbread ROMs with 1.2 bootloader.

$ ls -l /dev/block/mmc*
brw------- 1 root root 179, 24 Jun 14 04:40 /dev/block/mmcblk3
brw------- 1 root root 179, 25 Jun 14 04:40 /dev/block/mmcblk3p1
brw------- 1 root root 179, 26 Jun 14 04:40 /dev/block/mmcblk3p2

I don't have an SD card in the external slot, so the ls command only shows the internal SD card device (/dev/block/mmcblk3) which has 2 partitions on it (p1 and p2). You should see /dev/block/mmcblk2 and its partitions (1 or 2 of them) if the kernel detected the removable SD card. See this post of mine for some device and partition info. on the gTablet.

To ID the cards and get the other info. detected by the kernel, you can cat the appropriate files in the /sys/devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.n/ directories, where n = 3 for the internal SD card and n = 2 for the external SD card:

$ cat /sys/devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:0001/name
MAG4EM

I have a MAG4EM internal SD card.

$ cat /sys/devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:0001/block/mmcblk3/size
31440896

It has 31440896 512-byte sectors ie. 16,097,738,752 bytes in size.

You can run all of these commands from a Terminal too.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jroger0707:
Hi again,

You are very helpful. I believe my current setup is using Pershoot's kernel (installed via update.zip) boot-cm_2632.39_newbl-oc-uv-xtra-vfp_fp-043011.zip and NVFlash of Roebeet's 4349 image from this link:

http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/171...-using-either-11-or-12-based-images-g-tablet/

...using that bct file with the windows NVFlash download that has the default .bat file that I always use:

"nvflash.exe" --bct gtablet.bct --setbct --bl bootloader.bin --configfile gtablet.cfg --create --go

@set /p batuserinput=Press enter to continue:

I ran adb shell and copy/pasted your command; it failed. So, took a look and there is no dir /sys... I did find a platform/tegra-sdhci.2 under /dev/block/.... It has mmcblk2 and 2p1; seems to make sense as the SD-EXT is plugged in.

So, I still can't mount my SDCARD. Should I need the SDCARD to boot or is the internal NAND Flash enough to at least get past the Gtab logo. I'm trying to get a more low-level understanding. Key factors seem to be bootloader on my gtab; partition table on my gtab (bct file that is pushed each time I Flash). Like if all three line up then it shouldn't matter if I use 1.1 or 1.2 or whatever as long as the partition table matches what the ?kernel? and bootloader are looking for? Stretching my knowledge here. You mentioned you could create some sort of custom stuff for me. Can you do something to help determine if the SDCARD is good or bad; like is it possible that because I'm only using NVFlash and maybe my bct is out of whack and I'm overwriting part of one image with another that can mess up the boot and kill SDCARD detection or something...

I've offered $100 over on SD for someone who can get me up and back to 'normal' working. I've offered a remote debug session where say you would have direct access to my tab and I would provide the fingers and potentially a conference bridge to allow interactive commands (ie. so I can tell you what's on the gtab screen) or maybe a webcam link so you can see for yourself...thoughts on this whole mess?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
I looked at the gtablet.cfg file in that 1.2-4349 based image on SLD, and it does create the switched bootbmp and misc partitions, so your partitions are setup correctly--as per the partition table. Your internal SD card is the source of your problems.

It would fail. As we saw in the kernel message, the internal SD card is not detected and so the device-related files will not be present in /sys/.

Unfortunately, you do. The /data partition is on the internal SD card (and not on the onboard 512 MB NAND flash--like in phones) and the system won't come up without it.

I'm pretty sure I can fix this for you--but if I do, it'll be a hack, and you will also have to promise to send that $100 to your favourite charity.

Here's what I propose we do:

As I said, I can enable an option when compiling the kernel which may help with marginal SD cards. If this works, great. If it does not--ie. your internal SD card is completely non-functional, and you don't want to return the tablet, then I can get the SD cards switched in the kernel. Ie. The external SD card will look like the internal SD card and the internal one will be non-functional as it is now.

This, of course, means that you will have to keep the external SD card in its slot always. If you want to eject it, you'll have to power the tablet down first. You will also have to be very careful if you switch ROMs because each ROM installs its own kernel. If you switch ROMs, you'll have to reflash this kernel right after installing the ROM. You will also need to be careful while in ClockworkMod recovery. It comes with its own kernel, and if we don't update that too, you'll have to remember that the internal SD card doesn't work and that only the external one does when mounting the SD cards, taking a backup, etc.

I am rather busy with another project at the moment, so gimme a few days to get you the kernel. In the mean time, can you open your gTablet up and tell me what the part no. of the internal SD card is? It's on the back of the system board--and, unfortunately, its soldered on.

EDIT: On reflection, I may not need to modify the kernel at all. I can just modify the /init.harmony.rc file to mount /dev/block/mmcblk2p2 as /data. All the caveats I mentioned before will, of course, still hold. Here, you'll have to modify that .rc file (which again means a custom boot image) everytime you switch ROMs.

Looking for .BCT and Partition Table

Hi All,

I'm looking for people who are familiar enough with NVFlash AND a serial number around this one:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bringonblink:
Ok so i have been doing some reading about partitions on the Nexus S .

As it stands there 1gb internal memory and 16gb external sd (built in).

Right now i leave everything on internal memory and move games to external sd.

Now would creating a 1gig EXT partition and moving apps to that be any faster than on the external sd card?

And im assumign the internal memory is the fastet outta the lot?

Help? ^^
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgi:
Spare yourself the trouble.

Physically it is all the same chip of flash memory, partitioned on a somewhat low level.

The "external" sd you are talking about is already a partition on that one flash chip.

Taking a quick look at the FCC test reports for the 9100 and 9100T, the only spec difference I see in the first page summary of the device is the 9100T has a lower max RF output (around 16mW) on the 802.11a versus the 9100 (around 20mW). The max RF output on 802.11n is about the same on each device (around 12mW).

Both show the same EUT types: 850/1900 GSM/GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/HSPA

Was this a response to my 2100 question?

I need 2100 for international travel. If the ATT version doesn't have it then it's a no-go for me. I know TMO phones do, but they also lack 850 3G which I would like to get, plus no TMO S2 announcement so far.

1) Would the FCC report be a place where NFC is mentioned?

2) Have the 900/2100 bands been removed?

3) What's WCDMA?
[Galaxy S II General] FishTaco:
1) I would think the NFC frequency would need to be tested by the FCC as well. I didn't see a mention of it, but the report are a few hundred pages in total. The links are in my post above.

2) It looks like the FCC reports for this device only discusses the bands that were tested. I don't know if that means the radio hardware is different or those frequecies are just "disabled".

3) from at&t site: "The Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), which uses a wideband CDMA (WCDMA) radio interface, is a third-generation wireless technology. AT&T, like most GSM operators worldwide, operates both UMTS and GSM/GPRS/EDGE networks as an integrated network. Many UMTS devices can roam between UMTS and GSM/GPRS/EDGE networks."

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=705026

3. Shutdown your device.

4. Simultaneously press the DOWN volume button and the power button until your device starts. There will be a short pause and then a few lines of text will scroll across the screen. Afterwards, the bootloader will automatically detect the PC36IMG.zip file and prompt you to install it. Follow the easy prompts to install. Installation will take less than 10 seconds to complete. Afterwards, reboot into your new recovery. Go to the backup/restore menu and make a nandroid backup of your current setup.

5. Now go to the wipe menu and wipe EVERYTHING in it EXCEPT the SD card.

6. Go to the flash menu and flash the rom you desire to flash.
