[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] tixed:
I'm looking for a video player with loop/repeat option, so I can test battery capacity with standart "65% brightness 720p video loop" test.

I've only found some horrible apps on market with that option, with ugly interface and only a handful of supported video types. Need mp4 for this one... Nice players like MX, Rock and V don't have 'repeat' option.

Hardware reviews often mention this type of test, so I guess they're using some app for looping video - I doubt they just watch the tablet and seek back when the playback is finished :)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] 02ranger:
What kind of problems would I be looking at if I copied/installed the Spare Parts apk from CM7 over to the Infused v2.0.2 ROM? Would it work or would it seriously screw me up? I'm only interested in getting it because I have screen density set to 200 right now and some of my apps don't fit the entire screen. I've found fixes on a couple of the apps, but not all. I remember on my Aria there was an option I chose in spare parts and it forced everything to resize. I think it was the compatibility mode setting. I don't want to install CM7 just yet. Waiting on bluetooth support.

BTW, I did search first but didn't find the answer in any other forum. However, my search-fu is kinda weak. lol

Thanks for any help!

is there a difference between spare parts in cm7 and the versions in the market?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
The market version has advertisements added. Really shady if you ask me, taking a free open source app, putting ads into it, and then throwing it up on the market.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
I noticed a few months ago that a few guys had done that....added a feature or two...mostly ui changes...then called it their own and charged for it as well as offered a free/with ads version.

Seeing more and more of that

Wow, I had no idea it was in the market. haha. thanks everybody that did the trick for the most part. Some of the apps are still not the right size but it fixed the ones I use the most. I really appreciate the quick responses.

=================== GOOD NEWS ================

Thanks to GORO and Z we have a solution

Step by step guide

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16853029&postcount=39

thanks to waigsr

for those looking to see the technical aspects of it.

SE sample zip contains a vold replacement from cm7 which actually do the magic of making sure that first partition gets mounted.

Note : as Link2SD messes with install-recovery.sh its adviced that after flashing this zip port any specific tweak you have in install-recovery.sh over to install-recovery2.sh in the same folder.

and then run link2SD

Hope this helps.

-============== Keeping old study for later reference and memories only ==============

I have been messing around with Link2SD and its config here is a short writeup for those who want to help.

The basic problem

Link2SD looks for a partition no of /sdcard +1 partition

Android has a habbit of mounting the last partition as /sdcard

so link2sd is going to fail in all senses.

however if anything is mounting at /data/sdext2 Link2sd condsider it as a second partition

so we still have hope of using it however there are several limitations of it.

multiple ways in which link2sd could be used.

1) create 2 partitions on sdcard

a) ext2 partition as mmcblk0p1

b) vfat partition as mmcblk0p2

entry in install-recovery.sh

mount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /data/sdext2

Cons : xrecovery can't mount sdcard as its mmcblk0p1 that xrecovery mounts

2) create 2 vfat partitions

a) mmcblk0p1 mounting itself at /data/sdext2

b) mmcblk0p2 mounting itself as /sdcard

cons recovery related files will go in /data/sdext2

3) three partition layout

a) mmcblk0p1 -> reserverd for recovery related stuff

b) mmcblk0p2 -> link2sd

c) mmcblk0p3 -> SDCARD

or find an alternative to use mmcblk0p1 as /sdcard

or use a loop file as /data/sdext2

Do suggest what you all think and how should we proceed.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
and u sure this doesnt break recovery?

ok now that i read the post carefully i understand that it WILL BREAK recovery
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
cons highlighted to avoid confusion.

any idea how we can get this piece to work.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] coolsid8:
BTW why do we need it when we have app2sd ?

How's it better ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
keep only one FAT32 partition...

modify the recovery ramdisk to mount that partition to /sdcard
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
that could be done

however there is one more issue which i found just now

SDCARD can't be mounted to PC till both partitions are umounted and that won't be done automatically so we need alternative for sdcard umounting also

something like a gscript code for umounting /data/sdext2 before attempting sdcard mount to pc
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Adolf1994:
the new vold introduced in froyo causes this issue
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
the default vold.fstab listing is

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc1

some stuff online suggests that i can specify a partition number manually.

however

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard [B]1[/B] /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc1

when i am trying this it barks out and not even mounts sdcard.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Guantanamo:
With the sdcard parted in 3 partitions, I tried to make the third partition recognized by my pc, and I tried an application named multimount sd or something like that and it worked for me. You can found it in the market. With it, the pc can recognize the third partition not the first. Maybe that will help in your project.

Sent from my X10i
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Adolf1994:
i meant the vold binary/system, not the fstab config
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
can you point me to the correct code for this.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] aZuZu:
fat32 is first partition

ext2 is second partition

vold.fstab

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc1

this will mount fat32 partition

dev_mount ext2 /mnt/sdcard 1 or 2 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc1

should mount ext2 for link2sd
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Adolf1994:
the vold from 2.1 works well as you can see and if you'd have googled it, then you'd know there is a revised version of vold in 2.2+
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] shaunbu:
How about instead bind mounting a folder on /system as /data/sdext2 did this for ages on 2.1 to get more space for apps without probs. Obviously /system has to be mounted rw which isn't a prob for me and at least on stock there's loads of free space there which is a shame to waste.

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
mount -o bind /system/app2 /data/sdext2

Think the folders need to be created first.

Hi,

because link2sd rearranges install-recovery.sh

Thanks for Z !!

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
I also assumed something like this however android seems to be needing a last partition as vfat and that vfat is mounted as sdcard or nothing is mounted.

for you i recommand checking http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1206149 and also system being rw all the time is not at all a good idea.

Thanks buddy will check it as soon as possible ...rightnow my sdcard is not mounting nomatter what setting i do thinking of flashing CM7 and will see how it goes from there.

Note : just checked the zip i think SE stock needed a relacement at vold. will just flash the vold and see if it works.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Lockon Stratos:
Thanks buddy. I can confirm the SE 2.3.3 sample zip worked. I flashed the zip, turned off my x10, partitioned the sd on my pc using fat32 & ext32, powered on and DID NOT get previous error of sd not recognized on startup. It mounted fat32 partition and link2sd recognized ext2 partition right away. Selected ext type, rebooted again and I've moved apps that I wanted to the sd card. Rebooted a couple more times and apps are still linked and running fine. Time will tell if any apps will have issues or any tweaks on this rom will be affected. Using WBs v3.9 custom GB and I'll report again later.

Again thank you to everyone's efforts and for not giving up on this old feature.

Edit: Forgot to mention I can still enter xrecovery manually and using the xperia reboot app.

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] mikegapinski:
It is clean android, so no cm stuff like theme chooser etc ... If you don't like tock google icons change them :)

As I know in this rom you don't see any things from swift droid ;) Because it's good, clean AOSP.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] airbus360:
What I mean

I mean stock Icons. In aosp Joe Stone 2.3.2 if you get a text message the Message Icon looks like froyo not Gingerbread. It was the same when Swiftdroid was at Android 2.3.2 as well. Also the Market when you Download and install an app in joe stone it looks like froyo notifications. It is nothing to do with themes more with the stock framework (I love stock!)

[Omnia 7 General] AngryNil:
From what I hear, there aren't too many issues with getting the Omnia 7 to Mango (after the initial NoDo fiasco). I have received the Omnia 7 but haven't opened it yet. Looking to set it up this week, but I really want Mango. I don't think I'd be able to live with pre-Mango WP7, it seems real primitive.

So, is upgrading to Mango and rolling back to NoDo is a generally safe process? I've flashed my HTC Touch countless times without a hiccup, but from what I hear it seems that the Omnia 7 could be having issues when restoring? There was a thread about a bricked Omnia and the only solution was to... short circuit the NAND memory? If it gets to that stage, I think I'd rather beg for a replacement.

If I follow procedure and save the backup my original ROM, can there be many issues with restoration? Or would bricking only be the result of something that actually went wrong, such as a corrupted backup or a possible error code that was ignored?

EDIT: Oh, and apologies if this was supposed to be in the Development section. Kinda tired :/

I have restored to NODO before and have had no issues. I just had to make sure I reinstalled Zune 4.7 and the 4.7 Windows Phone Support Tool. Ran the Windows Phone 7 Backup 1.6 and restored my NODO backup.

Have done it about 5 times. No issues encountered.
[Omnia 7 General] AngryNil:
Do have an Omnia 7? I'd personally be less troubled if I had a HTC, because Samsung seems to screw with software on every turn.

[LG Optimus 2x] ergoen:
As long as you stay with the stock rom, it doesn't make any difference at all I think. If you want to create/hack something else it would have been better with a newer kernel version. Nvidia cleaned up and standardized lots of stuff in their 2.6.36 version so it would have made it a lot easier to modify for proper usb/bluetooth/etc support.
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
Arcee called the G2x Gingerbread bastardized, because it is simply Gingerbread hacked around Froyo drivers and user space. It may run and look like Gingerbread, but lots of benefits which should be introduced with gingerbread will be left out.

Like I said, Its like running Windows 7 with hacked XP drivers.

agree with you, you'll miss a lot like better battery management, more i/o scheduler, maybe new cpu governor except performance/powersave, something like that will be offering with new kernel... offcourse LG can patch this feature to existing feature, i think that will more not cost effective because there maybe some pre requisite that need to be match..
