[Defy Android Development] dedraks:
I created 2 partitions o my sdcard.

1) EXT3 2GB

2) FAT32 6GB

Then I installed gentoo on ext3 partition.

I can chroot into ext3 partition and use all gentoo (linux) commands. I installed Apache, squid, etc and it worked fine. I can run a WEB server on my Defy :)

And I can access the FAT32 partition on my PC even with the ext3 partition mounted.
[Defy Android Development] danimagrin:
Hi Dedraks!

It's basically the same idea I gave, you have two separated partitions and so one can be mounted and unmounted independently of the other. But in the original project linked above the rom images are inside the sdcard's user partition, that's the same that's unmounted when the phone is connected to computer. I've asked how they did to get around this issue at the project thread, but I'm starting to think that if you want to access your sdcard from the computer using the phone you'd need to boot the rom inside nand and not sdcard, at least the way they did it...

As I don't have my Defy at the moment would you mind posting the content of the init.rc file (it's placed inside rootfs methinks) so that we can take a look at it to see what can be done?

Thanks!
[Defy Android Development] danimagrin:
mount mtd partitions
# Mount /system rw first to give the filesystem a chance to save a checkpoint
mount yaffs2 mtd@system /system
mount ext3 mmc@system /system noatime nodiratime barrier=1
mount yaffs2 mtd@userdata /data nosuid nodev
exec /system/bin/logwrapper /system/bin/mount_ext3.sh userdata /data
mount yaffs2 mtd@cache /cache nosuid nodev
exec /system/bin/logwrapper /system/bin/mount_ext3.sh cache /cache

I think some modifications in there for booting from sdcard will have to be done, but I'm confused now because as far as I know Defy uses ext3 fs and not yaffs2! :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[Defy Android Development] K3n H1mur4:
Hey guys, I'm no pro about ROM cooking and other advanced mods, but my though is: since Defy has a somewhat large internal memory, couldn't this mod be done using it instead of the SD? I think it would be faster than using a memory card.
[Defy Android Development] danimagrin:
Maybe the choice to have multiple roms on the sdcard instead of having them on nand memory is because of the impossibility of partitioning the nand and not because of available space... But this is just a guess, let's wait for Epsylon3 to give his opinion! :)
[Defy Android Development] danimagrin:
Conap from the HTC forums answered my question and confirmed what I've imagined:

I'll keep in touch with him and show him this thread so that he can help us also!
[Defy Android Development] Conap:
I wrote code into the java app that was included that mount's the sdcard to pc while still being mounted to the phone. These scripts for the inc use an internal sd storage that the inc has (8GB) so it's not really compatible with other phones although the basics behind it works for an sdcard as well it just needs alot of changes. I am working on a new app with another dev that will handle all the instillation of the rom's and creation of images as well as booting between them. It will support multiple phones. As of now it's tested on my incredible and the other dev's D1 and we are close to getting beta testers for other devices. The info I need to add a device is fairly simple. I need the board name(i.e. Incredible is inc, D1 is sholes) It should be in your build.prop of your rom. I also need the location of the sdcard...it's probably either /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1...you can find it by booting to recovery and from adb shell type mount sdcard then type mount. I also need the sizes of the system,data, and cache partitions...while in recovery do:

mount system

mount data

mount cache

df -h

and it should show your partition sizes in mb's. You can run the df -h command while booted but sometimes it doesn't show the right info...usually if you use busybox df -h it will work. So if anyone interested can pm that information we can get it added to the new app and get it tested.

Okay just wondering i know that there is a new skype leak out that is said to work with thunderbolts running gingerbread...now this rom (Das BaMf sense 3.0 rc3) that i am speaking of, is that not a gingerbread based rom?

because of the radios we have to use? mc2 or mc2.5? so if i am right should the latest skype leak work with us using this rom on a thunderbolt?

if anyone could help me out i would love to hear back and some input on if it works or if it doesn't then why.?
[Atrix 4G General] apbalch:
My Atrix has a stuck pixel and I am unable to return it so I need some help getting rid of it. I've tried JScreen and PixelFixer but to no avail. I've also tried the tip of a pen and pressing down with it on the screen but could not reach the LCD. Any other suggestions? It's driving me crazy.
[Atrix 4G General] xfinrodx:
The way I see it...

A. Motorola RMA.

B. Look at a different part of your screen/live with it.

[Android Themes] nyakopharr:
Hi, im new to this site and everything that is Android. I crossed over from Iphone in which i knew everything about to try my luck with android, so far its been slow..I was wondering if there was a program or something i could use to design my own Sense 3.0 Themes. I have the EVO 3D and it comes with nothing...So how can i do this? Everything ive seen so far were for roms and rooted devices, do i have to root my EVO 3D first? Help Please
[Android Themes] 0.0:
I can only answer part of your question. I really don't believe you need to be rooted for having sense 3.0 themes (technically called skins). You just need to find or make one and install it. I could be wrong. Sorry if this is no help :(

Sent from my HTC Vision
[Android Themes] nyakopharr:
Any Help is good help. I figured that i could download some but problem is i have looked all over the net for some and cant find any customized skins, on top of that i cant seem to get them installed. I really would like to find out how to customize my own. Theres no program that can do it for you? If not, someone should make one.
[Android Themes] docsparks:
The closest thing to "a program to do it for you" is made by the GoLauncher team, and its called Themefactory, available on golaunchers website.

Its very..."iffy". I've never used it to actually make anything, just try out.

If you truly dont think your going to do it, and have some idea's of what you want it to look like, Im also willing, to knock this out, as you provide feedback as to exactly what you want things to look like.

Just want Sense 3.0 style look? and thats all? Someones on it.
[Hero CDMA General] rizdog23:
Hey so recently I had an idea that could get implemented in an AOSP rom. It would obviously need developed first and all of that good stuff as right now it is only a concept, but what if we, the members of XDA, made our own skin. HTC has Sense, Motorola has MotoBlur, and Samsung has TouchWiz, but what if we made something like HeroWare or something like that. Just an idea but it should be like very minimalistic, pretty much based off of adw launcher. Or another idea is what if we made a skin that looked like honeycomb and then just through it over CM7. I would not know how but we could make soft keys and make our own widgets, etc. LMK watcha think and if you'd be interested in trying to help me get this going.
[Hero CDMA General] NineInchNails:
Nope

®patience is a virtue©
[Hero CDMA General] MrDowntown12:
I think the idea is good, but it would be more trouble than its worth to maintain, provide support for numerous devices, and really to be useful. I mean 3rd party launchers basically are "hacker" skins if you think about it.

I think its a creative concept and is possible but not very practical.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
this would be asking way to much our development team is stretched pretty thin as it is, and that's what custom home launchers are for, and there's literally hundreds of them in the market.
[Hero CDMA General] Jurellz:
Hmph, and all I asked for is a simple froyosense w/ espresso Rom port.
[Hero CDMA General] NineInchNails:
I sir give you an A for effort
[Hero CDMA General] pstevep:
beautiful thought, and i commend you for that.. however, the dev scene in the hero world is rather lite at the moment.. so unless you have the skills to do it, bff's with a great dev, or just get really lucky; it probably wont happen.. plus like was mentioned cross device support would be nice.. you will need to try and get someone who would be willing to put the time into it.. that would be the key, and the hardest key to find.. there are a few devs left and one might take it up, it never hurts to ask.. just dont keep your hopes too high..
[Hero CDMA General] rizdog23:
Thanks for being one of the few who are positive lol :D I'll work on the images and all of that and i am friends with a pretty big dev group so maybe i can get one of them to help me out
[Hero CDMA General] pstevep:
my pleasure.. i try to keep it positive, sometimes its hard around here.. hope it works out for you though, i may break out the hero, and flash it you get it going..

other keyboard's smiley seems to be closed because of the messaging app?

anyway to make a dedicated smiley on other keyboard?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bstromberg:
Check out better keyboard in the market. It has that option plus a ton of other awesome options.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ebatr8:
You guys should ask the devs to port the senstions keyboard to the vibrant I would have loved it on the vibrant when I was using it a week ago it is the htc ime keyboard but swype is built into it so no need to switch keyboards and you get the best of both

Ok so i got 2 partitions, for android and wp7. I need to make the wp7 partition smaller to make more room on my card. I know that wp7 uses a special format, so that if i touch its partition its going to get messed up or i have to reset my whole card....but is there a way to do it without messing up and other partition or sd card? Thank you!

Is there anyway to get the setup files you download from the market? I'm after the Software Data Cable. I found most of the setup files in /data/app but for some reason that setup file wasn't in there or the app-private folder.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silentdawn3:
Okay I've posted about this before, but still can't figure it out...

My issue is this: When I install a GB rom, everything runs fine until my screen goes off.... its even fine if it goes off for a second, but if it sits for more than one second it reboots. A full reboot. I've tried both GB kernels, as well as MR 2 and 2.5. I've also tried using setcpu to set the minimum all the way up to 1.4GHz with no help.

Can someone help me fix this screen off issue? PLEASE?

Seems to have something with the dip in processor speed because when my phone is downloading from the market or signing in to google, or doing anything for that matter... the problem doesnt occur.

I don't really accept that I can't use Gingerbread because of this... there HAS to be a fix.

Thanks yall
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rad187:
What gingerbread roms have you tried? Also, what kernels were you using?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sg1dan:
don't have this issue on Synergy 3.0 running the latest ziggy kernel
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silentdawn3:
I've tried every GB rom on here, as well as both kernels

also, Ziggy kernel? You in the right section?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharliesTheMan:
I would try wiping, then installing the setup in my signature, but don't restore any apps at first or sync with Google so they're downloaded automatically. I think that you've got an app and a kernel that's interfering with one another. Try the ROM bone stock before you start restoring apps and see if the problem is there.

Rooted Thunderbolt on BAMF Sense 3.0 RC 4 with MR2 radio and latest dreamKernel.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdphilly:
when you say both kernels are you referring to the radios? cause mr2 and mr.5 are radios not kernels
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarheel23:
I share your pain with this exact problem. I have been doing all types of testing these last two days to see if there is any combination of ROMS and Kernals that would work for me.

I can flash any ROM I want, and the only Kernal that I can successfully use is this one:

Imoseyan GB Stock Kernal

With this Kernal, I can use my phone all I want, let the screen go black, hit the lock screen button and I have never had a reboot.

I have run Thunderstick, BAMF 2.1, BAMF 3.0, Gingertheory, with this kernal and it will run fine.

When I change to any of these Kernals, I get the constant reboots when my screen goes off, just like the OP described.

* Imoseyon Lean Test

* Imoseyon 184mhz

* Imoseyon USBfix

* Imoseyon 2.5.3 test 7

* Nerozehl's dreamkernal 2.3.2

Of course, when flashing any ROMS and Kernal combinations, I would do a complete wipe before doing so. I should also mention that I am using MR2 radio. I can also use MR2.5 with the GB Stock Kernal and it runs fine.

So like the OP, it seems to be something to do with the kernal that my phone does not like and can't figure out. Anything other than the stock kernal, and my phone will constantaly reboot after the screen goes black.

I should also mention that I have used the speektweah.sh in terminal emulator and tried all of the different voltage settings and it had no effect. Also disabled it and tried using SetCPU and no luck either.

I have also tried all of the ROMS without allowing any apps to update by skipping the google account sign in. So basically all of the ROMS were running in their native state, and the outcome would be the same.

FOR THE OP

Try running the stock kernal and let us know if that works for you. You should just be able to flash it in CWM, reboot and you will know right away if it is working correctly.

The real question I need to figure out is this. What is different about the GB Stock Kernal from all the others that would be having this impact on our phones?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silentdawn3:
I've tried all of this except installing the above kernel. I'll give that a shot, thanks.

As for installing without apps, I've tried that. Tried everything. Lets hope the stock kernel works!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaRkL3AD3R:
I've been running Das BAMF Gingerstripped with Imo's kernel and never had this issue. It sounds like maybe something is bad with the cpu profiling becoming unstable when screen-off profiles kick in.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarheel23:
I can confirm that this one worked for me too. Synergy 3.0 running Ziggy's Kernal and everything works well.

Anyone know where to grab just the Kernal? Can't seem to find the latest download.

I should also add, that when I do flash the Stock GB kernal so that my ROM will be stable.... my camera freezes everytime I try to take a picture. Happens in every ROM I mentioned above. However, it works fine before I flash the stock kernal.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silentdawn3:
running "stock kernel" it looks to be fixed. Looks like I tried this before as I already had the file but.... works now for some reason

Thanks.
