If the kernel you're using is one of the newer kernels (probably anything after 2.6.32...but you should be using something much newer) then it likely doesn't even have ext2 or ext3 compiled in. It's all just ext4 like it should be. The issue you still may have however is that the kernel reports the lower revision extfs because ext4's driver accepts the ext4 fs but the kernel is checking for ext2....

Basically, we are asking if this is an ext2fs. The ext4fs driver answers cuz it's all there is and it's masquerading as ext2 and ext3 and ext4. So it looks and sees ext4 and says, hey, i can read this and returns YES. Now the answer yes was to the question of ext2, so that's what gets reported everywhere, but internally, ext4 knows it's got an ext4 fs. mount options that normally would error out with -t ext2 are accepted because the fs driver isn't really ext2 and it knows the fs isn't either so the mount options pass.

This is a kernel bug in an aesthetic and practical sense. Functionally it's all working as intended but other apps and users will get confused as to what exactly is the filesystem, ext2, ext3 or ext4. It can't know without probing the fs itself. Which is stupid for many applications.

Supposedly the latest kernels have a patch to fix this to correctly report the correct fs revision of ext. Though perhaps that hasn't been pushed to linus's branch yet.

In any case, you still should be modifying the mount options to use data=writeback so you're not clogging up the little SD bandwidth you have with data caching in the journal. You really only need fs metadata caching so you dont bork the entire partition on a crash. data=writeback does that, but default is data=ordered.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertRoos_:
Hi!

Im having trouble getting into CWM. I have been running MIUI on my Galaxy S i9000 for over a month now without any problems with CWM. Im running MIUI RC8vC right now and decided to update it to the latest release MGv2, but here comes the problem. I can't get into the Clockwork Mod Recovery mode.

What i have been trying is the standard 3-button-combination, where i end up on the splash screen for the Galaxy S i9000 and than nothing more happens (left it on for 10 minutes just to be sure). So i then tried rebooting into CWM using the ROM Manager from Market, ending up with the same result.

My question is, what is the most simple way of fixing this annoying problem?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
how long are you holding the 3 button combo for ? you only need to do it until the GT-I9000 screen comes on, then let go.

anyway if you cant get it working its probably kernel related, did you flash they CM7 initial kernel before you came to MIUI,

do this again in ODIN and start the process again
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertRoos_:
Yepp that's what im doing, I have been using CWM quite a lot so im 100% sure im doing the combo correct, it seems like the CWM just wont boot up.

Yes i did, and after that i have been upgrading MIUI like 10 times for every new version without any problems at all, up until now with this release.

So the solution is to Flash the initial kernel again, then use the 3 button combo and install the latest release and all will be fine again hopefully? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
yes, that should work :D

weird problem and i have never heard of it before lol..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertRoos_:
Thanks for the quick answer!

I did what you said and it worked fine, im now running the latest release of MIUI for Galaxy S.

But now i can't get into CWM again! This is really strange, and annoying, if i have to go back to the initial kernel all the time for upgrading MIUI, i do wonder what could be causing this problem. If it was the kernel that comes with the later releases av MIUI i suppose others would have similar problems, but i can't find anyone else having these kinds of problems.

Seems like im beeing followed by bad luck today. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
so download mode IS working ??? Hmmm.... not a 3 button combo issue then..

How long have you been on MIUI, did you come from a gingerbread ROM ?

can i just ask how are you doing the 3 button combo..... (i feel stupid asking this, but this problem is so strange)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertRoos_:
Yes, works like a charm- so as I said im on the MGv2 right now but with the same problem as before lol.

I've been on MIUI for about a month now, perhaps a little longer. No i came from Darkys v9.5, than did the standard update procedure going to a stock froyo rom and so on as described in the main MIUI thread.

Well im doing it the same way both when on the kernel for CM7 where i can get in, and when on the kernel for MGv2. Menu+Volume Up+POWER, Releasing Power directly when the "Galaxy S i9000 Samsung" splash screen turns up. So im 100% im doing the combination right. I can't get into CWM using the ROM Manager either that donät require the 3-button combination, so there must be something else.

Thanks for trying to help me with this!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
no need for thanks we havent got it sorted yet lol

make a post in the MIUI thread in development, there is a lot of cleverer people in there and im hoping that they can shed some light on this bizzare situation
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertRoos_:
I wanted to do that in the first place, however i must reach 10 posts or so before i can post in there. You could not post my question in there for me you think? So i don't hace to just spam this forum with another 5 posts. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
thats very respectful of you not wanting to spam the thread, but yes i will post your question now for you,

you can keep your eye on the post and watch the results, i will also post the results here when someone kindly answers it :D

EDIT: have you done a factory reset ? when in recovery did you format /system /cache / dalvik cache and then install MIUI
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
hey mate had a reply, dont know if you have been checking but here is what was said

hope this helps

Ill reply when more solutions come up
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertRoos_:
Thanks again azzledazzle! :)

Yes a did a complete wipe since I as well thought that might could solve the problem, however it did not.

Okay I will have a go at it tomorrow- I guess i need to find a ROM with a bootloader and all though when downgrading from 2.3.4?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
yes, im not sure which firmware contains the bootloader or if you have to check 'update bootloader' in odin, i have never had to do this, so you will have to search.

but let me know how you get on and we can go from there. :D

Im off to bed now its late, if you get it fixed PM me, if not il be back to check on the thread tomo :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertRoos_:
Problem is now solved!

I was thinking that MIUI gets updates all the time, and switches between kernels quite often as well, so I decided to wait for the next update with a kernel-switch.

MGv4 was released today and had the kernel-switch I had been waiting for, so I just flashed over the initial kernel for CM7 again using ODIN. Than went into CWM and updated MIUI to MGv4.

Than with my fingers crossed i tried entering CWM again and it worked like a charm. ;)

So I did not have to go back to FroYo and all that again, just had to wait for the next update.

Thanks for your help!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -iNCEPTiON-:
Hey There,

I m using CM7.0.2 for a while now and i have noticed that when i get a call, it just stucks on the main screen and i have to wait till the screen comes :(

any solutions ?

i m using SetCPU while in screen off

Max = 245MHZ

Min = 160MHZ

Is there a problem with this ?

Let me know if its a problem and how can i fix it :)

Thanks In advance!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Dont use SetCPU. Use the default settings from within Settings > CM Settings > Performance Settings > CPU Speed and Governor Settings.

However, lag at an incoming call is something I experience as well. When a call comes, the ringtone will ring, but the phone will take about 1-2 seconds to show the call screen. Don't know if there is a workaround for this, but, I'll probably try setting the min to 352 and test again.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -iNCEPTiON-:
I have deleted setcpu now and using the setting within , i have set min at 345 and max at 729,hm ur lag for only 1-2 seconds but my lag was abt for atleast 10-15 seconds..anyways let me check with the current setting and i will report back the result..:) thnx....
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -iNCEPTiON-:
hmm, the problem is solved, SetCPU was having the problems.. :)
[Droid X General] eye_rule:
I have a Verizon Droid X that I bought to hook up to Alltel's network, and have voice and text no problem. I'm using a thread on howardforums but am unable to linke to it...new user and all...Google "Droid X on Alltel" to see what I'm trying to do.

It seems everyone else can get data but I'm unable to. QPST will not save the settings not matter what I do. CDMA Workshop is out of my budget range and QXDM makes my mind spin. Can anyone offer any help?

On a side note, I have a friend who owns an Alltel authorized reseller store. I can put my hands on an official Milestone X to pull whatever I need to accomplish this, or anything else the community may want to get their hands on. Would it be helpful for me to pull the Radio, APN, SPF, ROM, etc from the Milestone X and flash to the my Droid X?
[Droid X General] byd4ever:
spf

I would be interested in the spf for the milestone x if you can get it thanks

yea i also could really use the spf to fix my phone if u could get it it would be really appreciated thanks
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
Hey guys: it is spelled SBF.
[Droid X General] the.ghost.86:
It would be absolutely awesome if you could grab an SBF. I threw a Verizon SBF on it without thinking about it about 2 months ago and Moto has been screwing around with it ever since. First they threw a generic on it, then threw Verizon back on it. Genius!
[Droid X General] krause11:
sbf

oh your right its sbf but iether way i could really use the file i have no data because im running the verizon sbf with my milestone x on the alltel network.
[Droid X General] the.ghost.86:
Good, I'm not the only idiot (good natured) who threw on the wrong sbf.

[Galaxy S II General] bassmonkey:
Damn that's cool
[Galaxy S II General] FishTaco:
I was torn between the S II and the HTC Sensation, but after listening to a few minutes of the background music in that video, I am leaning towards the Sensation.

;)
[Galaxy S II General] bassmonkey:
Lol :)
[Galaxy S II General] Aweb:
I was also hesitating between the two and what motivated my choice was the screen (AMOLED really is impressive), the amount of ram and the unlocked bootloader, which is a great deal for me.
[Galaxy S II General] GuestD2492:
I think the Sensation could turn out to be a bit of a disappointment. The SGSII is a bit more future-proof IMO, and I think it's good enough to take on Apple when they come out all guns blazing with the iPhone 5.

For me the SGSII will be THE Android phone of 2011.
[Galaxy S II General] FishTaco:
I think you're probably right, and hopefully both the S II and Sensation will launch around the same time in the US so I can check each one out. If not, I will probably go with the one that launches first. Unfortunately, I don't focus too much on future proofing, because I know that in a year, whether I need it or not, I'll be checking out the quad cores!

I had my few years with iPhone and that is enough to last me a lifetime. It's great for competition, but the way Android phones are being released, Apple will never be in the lead for long if they release one high-end phone ever 12 months or longer (as far as "best" device, they'll still sell a boatload).
[Galaxy S II General] ankushkatari:
The vid was amazing.. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] amuneer:
I've had my SGS II for a week now and I can safely say this is the best smartphone to date IMHO. I've owned every premium smartphone to come out of HTC (Android & WP7), Apple, and Samsung camps for the last 3 years, and this easily tops them all. I only wish they had thrown in NFC for these European variants of SGS II. I have no complaints over the screen resolution as the extra few pixels on the iPhone 4 and HTC Sensation screens make hardly a noticeable difference. What makes the difference is the quality of this SAMOLED+ screen. It is amazing for browsing, media playback and gaming. Obviously I have not seen the HTC Sensation in flesh, but based on what I have heard in their launch speech, IMO it will not be able to take the crown from SGS II as the flagship Android handset. With the SGS II, Android comes to life the way it never has before.
[HTC Desire S] tkr1992:
Is anyone here having issues with the notification light?

On my handset, then green notification light keeps flashing even though there is nothing to be notified. I havent got any new texts or emails however it still flashes green. I dont understand what its trying to notify me about.

Any know how to fix the problem?
[HTC Desire S] panosfx:
Reboot maybe?
[HTC Desire S] tkr1992:
I thought about that, but i'd do that as a last resort, because i dont want to delete everything. I was hoping there might be something i can do without rebooting.

Thanks anyway
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
He said reboot, ie simply try turn ing the phone on and then off or select restart from the power button (by a long press), neither of which loose any data.

Not full reset- which wipes phone back to original state.
[HTC Desire S] njd:
Go to "Settings > Display > Notification flash" and see which items are ticked.

On mine, I have ticks against "Missed call", SMS/MMS and Email, but there are also entries there for voice mail, reminders and alarms.

Maybe you need to update/sync your google/gmail settings to clear an email notification?

What notifications are shown in the status bar drop-down?
[HTC Desire S] tkr1992:
That was the first thing i did, it does get rid of the light however it starts flashing again after a few hours so i dont want to keep restarting my phone. I was hoping there was a permanant method. Thanks anyway.

No notifications are shown in the drop down bar but yet it flashes and thats what i dont understand. Because the light flashes when there is no visible notification i.e. txt or email.

I shall try your method and untick some of the notifications i dont need and maybe that should sort things out. Thanks.
