[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
Hello,

I am not able to delete any file(photos/videos/apps) from my phone all deleted files reaper when i reboot the phone.

I have try hard reset and wipe everything, format the internal sd with my computer, format the sd with the phone neither of those method works, all deleted files come back when i reboot my phone. for example

1) facebook apps is installed on the phone and is working properly

2) facebook apps is removed from the phone and is removed as expected

3) reboot the phone / hard reset the phone / wipe everything

4) facebook apps is back on the phone

this applies to photos taken by me, mp3, etc...

what could be wrong?

my phone is a sgs gt-i9000 non rooted

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] biscuit26:
i have the same problem didn't find a solution but i think it has something to do with the internal sd card.. tried formating from windows, from the phone and from recovery mode but all my files are still there
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
it is very frustrating not able to delete any file. i hope there is a solution to this problem because i can not return this phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] _murray_:
I also have this problem. Trying to find sollution reading the other forums also. Now i will try the following sollution.

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/21066-damaged-internal-sd-galaxy-s-i9000-mount-not-work/

Please if you find any sollution, please inform us also.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
solution not found. this is worst of a bricked phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] _murray_:
i tried the method i wrote. did not work:(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
very frustrating.

I don't understand how could it be that the memory is permanently save?

it makes no sense to me.

Image if the phone has a virus/adware/etc... and it could not be deleted even with a factory reset and you have to throw away your phone. very serious bug or hardware issue.

btw i not an android hacker i used my just to make phone calls, check email, chat... i mean i did not break my phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Al3xxxinho:
The flash memory is dead or the flash controller ...

"Another limitation is that flash memory has a finite number of program-erase cycles (typically written as P/E cycles). Most commercially available flash products are guaranteed to withstand around 100,000 P/E cycles, before the wear begins to deteriorate the integrity of the storage.

After that you can only read the contents of the flash drive :)

A defective memory chip can have a lower P/E cycles.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
thanks.

I will not do it myself but Is it possible to physically change the flash memory/the controller?

do you think the phone dead forever?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Al3xxxinho:
Everything is possible with proper tools ... If you know someone who can find and buy the flash chip and controller, yes! ... The rest of the process is relatively simple ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
ok thanks

i guest the phone is broken unless there is a way to mount the file system on the external sd card and ignore the internal sd card.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
update:

problem seems to be located on:

/dev/block/mmcblk0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p1

/dev/block/mmcblk0p2

is there any way to point block devices file to the external memory card?

help please.

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
send in for repair replacement.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] _murray_:
found any fix?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
Hello,

not yet but I think the phone problem can be fixed by running android from the external sd. My knowledge of the Android OS is not good enough to make this change.

Question for the experts:

Is there anyway to run Android from the external sd card?

Is possible?

Thanks

ps. i cannot return the phone for repair/replacement.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Al3xxxinho:
Everything is possible ... But i don't think someone is going to make a port or something for this problem ...

Try to find the flash controller and the flash chip, and put someone to desolder the dead ones, and solder back the good ones. The last part is simple.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
I think the only thing to be done is to mount /data on the external sd
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Al3xxxinho:
Yes, that could be a possibility too ... But try to find a dead android phone that still has the flash memory and controller in good working condition, and then find someone who has the skill required to solder microchips from one phone to the other ...

I don't think sd mounting will be released soon, because the external sd is seen only as a folder in the internal storage :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marcov8:
Hello,

Are you saying that i can take any flash chip and controller and install it on the Samsung galaxy s?

I have an old htc magic, do you think the flash chip and controller are compatible?

thanks for replying.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
I have seen images of cases. I have heard rumors of hdmi cord. I have not heard much else other than that. Has anyone heard of other accessories I'm curious to see what will be available.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
I just got a case for my soon to come (hopefully) evo 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Ill have about 6 different TPU case styles well before launch on tpu-cases.com Mine aren't going to have a giant hole in the back like the crap ones that are on the market now. Im thinking Ill have a red geometric or argyle pattern, solid gloss red, solid gloss black, smoke argyle or geometric and clear geometric. Probably have some sort of pink as well. Any other colors you guys want?
[HTC EVO 3D] Samzebian:
interesting... I would love a chrome case, and another nice color is Belize Blue Pearl (from the 2008 accord Coupe!)

Carbon Fiber would be sic as well

btw your site is down... is it not up yet?
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Wow, those are pretty nice. Also there cheap as hell. I like how the mold them to each phones dimensions the right way. Well definitely be getting one of these.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
what hole are you referring to??? and where can i get what your talking about?
[HTC EVO 3D] Zorachus:
I hope Incipio makes a Feather version for the 3D.

Sent from my EVO 4G "Myn's RS 5"
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Im talking about the single large camera hole that some manufacturers are using. Not only does it look ridiculous it leaves a good amount of the phone exposed. My cases will have 3 smaller holes, one for each camera and one for the flash. Looks much nicer and protects more of the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Its not down, no. Should be working. Chrome and carbon fibre are not colors you can make TPU cases in. The fancy blue could be done though.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
will you be making a plain red tpu???
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Can you make a flat black one? Like a matte finish
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Sorry, plain red no gloss? And will your cases cover all/most buttons?
[HTC EVO 3D] whatsitsnamenow:
You should name your colors with a bit more jazz. Spicy Orange, Electric Yellow or Blue, Manly Pink. :D

But yeah, I take a spicy orange color if you make one.
[HTC EVO 3D] jdmtsx:
This site is already selling cases

http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.asp?divid=HTC&model=HTC+EVO+3D&skuno=91192
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
I git one if those. Everything is perfect, but I don't care for gloss finish.
[HTC EVO 3D] guitardoc64:
I'm waiting on and otterbox or ballistic case. I've had my Hero in 2 different otterboxes (commuter/defender) and love them. I did email Otterbox about it and am awaiting a reply.
[HTC EVO 3D] Icy13:
Please, please, please (please!) make an emerald green gloss one. Dark, deep, emerald that is (possibly) translucent so I get the gem quality.

There are several TPU on amazon now, ships tomorrow, but no green. The blood red is quite nice, but I really would prefer emerald green.

Did I mention emerald green? :)
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Yes I will be have a solid red, not something I usually do but I will for Evo 3D since its in the color scheme. I won't have any matte cases, only gloss. They just don't sell as well in matte. I have been wanting to do a darker green for sometime but haven't done it yet. I probably will for the 3D but it won't be in the first bunch. As for Amzer/Luxmo and Fommy they are all the same India based company. Not the best service but their products are quality, or have been in the past. They just changed manufacturers for their TPU cases so it remains to be seen how good the new batch is.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
We are now using cutouts for all buttons except the volume rocker which will be a molded design. So many requests from customers to have a cutout for the power button that we started doing it a few models back.

Also im going to do an extended battery case for the Evo 3D just as soon as the door is released. My goal is to start bring extended battery cases to market weeks after release instead of the 6 month time frame its taking now.

The first couple colors (black, smoke) will be on sale in a couple of days, hopefully before Friday.

edit: Sorry guess, looks like Evo 3D cases wont be ready until Tuesday May 31st.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Cool,atleast I have a date now. I've been hitting up your site everyday. Those cases are really nice. I currently have a case mate on my hd2 (hard case). That son of a ***** cracked the first time I dropped it. All the corners are busted off it. I'm done with hard cases. Can't wait to try yours:p Please reconsider doing flat black.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
When you say button cut outs, does that mean that the case will not or will cover the buttons? I want one that covers all buttons (with the exception of the switch) and doesn't make the buttons hard to press.

Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
A cutout is a cut out area, or hole, as opposed to a molded design. The problem with molded TPU is its difficult to press. There will be a cutout for the power button, headphone jack, switch, charger, hdmi (might be forgetting something else). The camera button and volume rocker will be a molded design (covered). I just got the first case up a few minutes ago, its the High Gloss Black. The picture of the case is real, but since I dont haven Evo 3D dummy phone yet I had to photo shop in the camera area. Not the best job but it looks alright. http://tpu-cases.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7&products_id=98

If you want a case that covers all the buttons and is super easy to press, you'd be better off with Silicone. I personally think TPU is far superior, but silicone does have the advantage when it comes to molded buttons being easier to press.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Good news, I am making a green. It's not going to be translucent though, or emerald. I've decided to use Pine Mountain. It's HEX: #003300 RGB: 0/51/0 It will be high gloss.
[HTC EVO 3D] Icy13:
Hmm, but then how will I get my kryptonite fix?

I will have to see the pictures, but the hex link suggests to me that it will be too dark. If it were dark and translucent (and thus I get that gem/candy quality) then that would work. But dark and opaque, probably not :(

Thanks for looking out, I will consider once it's up on the site, but I doubt it will fit my needs :(
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Why is there a small cutout on the red ring?

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
I always wondered, and by looking inside one without the door on, its the speaker. There are tiny holes on the camera ring.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Yup, speaker.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
How about Android green. Would anyone rock that? Or too bright for daily use?
[HTC EVO 3D] drbadass:
Burnt Orange would be great.. Argyle or otherwise.
[HTC EVO 3D] Gordon Ramsay:
I want a bright android green with no gay camera rectangle. I would rock that.

Sent from my EVO 4G with screen painted red and blue for custom 4D graphics.
[HTC EVO 3D] Gordon Ramsay:
To clarify one of your cases in android green would rock as the camera is perfect.

Sent from my EVO 4G with screen painted red and blue for custom 4D graphics.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Waiting for some more options. Not really feeling the high gloss look.

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
I'm not really feeling glossy either. And why make cut outs? You can add a dot where buttons go (in the in side of the case that presses against buttons.) To make it easier to press.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
By that do you mean no large camera cutout? We are using a much smaller cutout then what I see others using. Only an opening for the lenses themselves, flash, and speaker. I just got a sneak peak from the factory of how the green came out. Not the best picture but you get the idea. I'm pumped!
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Because molded buttons are hard to press on a TPU case. Ask anyone whos owned one. The only cutout we've added over a traditional TPU case is the power button. Trust me, you'll thank me later for it.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Well we definitely aren't doing any matte TPU, there are plenty of those already on the market. Should have no problem finding one if that's your preference.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I tried to call the factory and switch to Android green at the last minute but they already had the color made. I'm happy with how it came out. I'll try Android green next time.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
@one step ahead

When do you think that clear geometric, and the argyles will be up on the site?

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Arglye I have now in smoke I just haven't put it up yet. Ill try and get to that today. I also have translucent smoke with no pattern. Those will be a bit trickier to photograph and have them resemble what theyll look like on the phone since I dont have a dummy phone yet. The black was easy since its opaque and I could just photoshop in the camera. The geometric pattern is going to be closer to the middle of the month as the mold isnt done for that one. Solid white, red, and green will be in next week.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Cool, thanks for the info

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Here is a preview of the red. I know a couple of you have commented on preferring matte, but these glossy cases do look really sharp on the phone. I too prefer matte since it doesn't fingerprint up, but the glossy does make the phone stand out. Also the glossy provides better slip resistance then the matte finish.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
I'll most likely buy it. I know what you mean when you say hard to press. I have some of those cases. I have some though that add a small nub in the inside on the buttons to give it a little extra push.
[HTC EVO 3D] Gordon Ramsay:
Didn't mean to say yours had a bad camera cut out, just the other cases out there did. I like yours. I would kill for a neon android green though :(
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I don't think Ive ever seen a TPU case with a reverse nub inside, its usually a recessed area that the button fits into. Or are you talking about silicone cases?
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
nope, i am 100% sure its a tpu case. i have two of them with the nub inside. i will try to take a pic of it when i get home.

something like this:
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I have an epik case around here somewhere, ill have to take a look at that.
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
Just ordered one of your black cases for the 3D. Never had a TPU case before, guess we'll see how it is. Now I just need the damn phone to become available.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Thanks! Dropped it off last night you should have it Monday
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I'm aware this looks ridiculous but the Thunderbolt is close in form factor :D You get the idea... this is the high gloss smoke (no pattern)
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Yeah I'm liking that smoke. I'll get one of those and an argyle one when they surface

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I put the Argyle one up now, with an equally ridiculous picture :D
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
The argyle looks sick, i'm thinking about buying one of these
[HTC EVO 3D] rhg84:
Will be ordering one of those red ones, looks pretty sweet and i like that it will stand out. If you ever get around to android green i'll be in for one of those as well, would be a fun color to have. Do wish you would carry a black matte since I do like your camera cut out design more. Found one on ebay but they want 20 bucks for it and it has stupid branding.

[HTC EVO 3D] mrjkwik:
just ordered 2 smokes. waited to long to get an evo case after launch day. making sure i have one from day 1 this time.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Got myself 2 today also. Smoke, and the argyle one.

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] Bostonfin:
count me in for a green android one
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
Already ordered a TPU case from ebay for $4 shipped. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] ebolamonkey3:
How much bulk do these cases add? The 3vo is already a large phone, wouldn't want to add too much bulk to it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
I have had TPU cases on my EVO right after my Bodyglove case broke in the same spot the 3rd time(all replaced for free by the way). I don't feel that it adds any bulk to it and it goes in my front pocket just like it always has.
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
I have the Body Glove as well, I've had it replace about 5 times, worst case I ever bought. I just got my TPU case yesterday. The area for the shutter button and volume rockers are covered up, hopefully that won't impede their use. Many of the holes have some left over roughness and a bit of extra material from the molding process, only a problem if you're really OCD. Seems like a decent case, not very thick, should add very little bulk. The inside is soft-touch, similar to the back cover of the EVO 4G. Seems like it would add a bit of impact protection but mostly just protects against dings and scratches. Should be decent enough until Otterbox releases a Commuter for the 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
Yeah, the current TPU case I have for EVO has the rockers covered, but does not impeded their use. Would assume it would be exactly same with the new one for EVO 3D. If the edges get to you, could always take a razor blade to it to cut them down a bit.
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
That post was really for anyone, like myself, that has never had a TPU case and was wondering about them. The little bit of extra material doesn't bother me but I know there are a bunch of people that are far more critical than I am so I just thought I'd mention it. Seems like a decent case. About as protective as a standard silicon case, maybe a little less so because it's thinner and not as shock absorbent, but far more rigid and doesn't sag like silicon does. Really can't beat it for the $5-$9 they cost depending on where you get it.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Woohoo just got my TPU cases. These look like they will definitely do there job.

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] Bukem75:
I will buy 2 in Android green
[HTC EVO 3D] Bostonfin:
this.

Android Green!
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Ok the green, red, and white arrived from the factory yesterday. That means the only other styles I'm waiting on are the GeoTPU Smoke and GeoTPU Clear (check out our Infuse 4G or Sensation 4G cases if you'd like to see what that pattern looks like).

The green is a bit different shade then I expected. Much lighter and has a bit of blue in it which gives it a teal hue. The picture below was taken with about 1000 watts of light directly above it, so it does make it appear a bit lighter then it would under normal inside light.

Again I still dont have an Evo 3D dummy so this time I put the case on a Sensation 4G :D

The red turned out perfectly, exactly as I was hoping. It's a true to color red I'd say. Again there is about 1000 watts of 5500K light above it making it look a tad lighter then it will under normal room light.

and then my personal favorite, white. I really cant recommend this case as a daily driver as white TPU is difficult to keep clean. If you keep it in your blue jeans pocket it will eventually turn blue from sliding

it in and out. If you keep it in directly sunlight for an extended period of time, it will start to yellow. They are cheap enough that you can replace them, but still I want you to know before hand.
[HTC EVO 3D] mrjkwik:
The smoke cases I ordered came in yesterday. Looks good. Can't wait till I have a phone to stick in them.

Sent from my EVO, not yours.

Thoose cases looks awsome, there are any discounts? LOL
