[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radioraheem:
Update again: And now it's broken again. Cache is remounted to the old settings and the umount command now just gives me a "Failed" without any other useful error information.

HELP!!! How do I permanently fix this?

Update again v2: Rebooted into recovery, wiped cache and Dalvik, got an error indicating my sd card isn't partitioned correctly "E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2" when wiping Dalvik, but from what I'm finding online that's not a huge deal. Rebooted, ran my commands above again and cache is symlinked again, large apps install ok again.

How do I make this permanent?

Same problem, disabling Voodoo worked for me :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liova:
solution worked for me like charm....

After browsing around, I found out solution:

The problem is in the cache folder (that I assume used by the market) is using small partition (around 20mb in my case).

So to solve this we need to change it to bigger partition.

1. You gonna need Android Terminal Simulator or equivalent terminal app. This will also require your Android rooted.

2. Type ’su’ (root permission request will be showned, you need to approve it).

3. Type ‘cd /’

4. Type ‘umount /cache’

5. Type ‘mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs rootfs /’ (to set the folder access to rw – read write)

6. Type ‘rmdir /cache’ (delete cache folder)

7. I personally using root explorer to do point 5-6

8. Type ‘mkdir /sdcard/cache’

9. Type ‘ln -s /sdcard/cache /cache’ (to link cache folder to /sdcard/cache – which shoud have bigger partition size)

Works like a charm!!!

Thanks to jimmy!

I know this is in the wrong forum but you never get an answer in general, so im asking for help here please.

basically im after a way to force GPS to turn off, through terminal with root permissions or somthing to that effect as i cannot for the life of me get GPS to turn off!! i untick gps in settings menu, it unticks, i back out that screen and go back in and its still ticked for gps on. and the power widget doesnt even do anything when i press to turn off gps.

i know that a factory reset will probably sort it but ill do that as a last resort, i just wondered if there is a way to force it to turn off.

but linux commands i have no idea about as i imagine it could be done through terminal??

any answers are greatly appreciated, as you can imagine my battery is dying pretty rapidly now with minimal use

[Galaxy S II General] 3waygeek:
I've had my SGS2 for almost 4 months now, running KE7 firmware. Within the next few hours, I'll be getting the SanDisk 64GB microSDXC card, and I'd like to use it in my SGS2.

Based on my reading of other threads in this forum relating to microSDXC support, it's my understanding that the SGS2 hardware will support this card, but that software support will be required to handle the exFAT filesystem, which is the standard format for microSDXC cards.

To determine if exFAT support existed, I did a test last night, formatting a known-good 16GB microSDHC with exFAT and mounting it on my SGS2. However, when the phone powered up and scanned the card for media, it reported that the card couldn't be read and offered me the option of formatting it with FAT32. That suggests to me that the firmware expects micro SD cards to be formatted only as FAT32.

Again, from reading other threads on the forum, mostly related to NTFS support, it sounds like it should be possible to modify the firmware to support exFAT-formatted microSD cards. So I have two questions/requests:

Does a custom firmware package supporting the exFAT filesystem for microSD cards already exist?

If not, would one of the devs like to take a shot at making one?

If this mod hasn't already been made, I'd be more than willing to assist the devs in any way I can. I've been a software developer for almost 25 years, but almost all of my experience is in Windows, and is pretty much evenly split between user & kernel mode, so I know a thing or two about filesystems & drivers.

The last time I did anything in the Unix kernel was back in the days of AT&T SVR4 and SunOS, when Linus was just beginning to develop the Linux kernel. So doing this myself is a bit of a stretch, which is why I'm asking for help from the dev community.

Any help I get would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S II General] veyka:
You would need to grab the kernel source, from samsung or a custom kernel, then build it with fuse support and the correct file system module, or just with extfat support if fuse doesn't have the correct module, the cm7 wiki has a good guide to building kernels then combining them with a ramdisk.

You would need to use a ramdisk from a stock kernel for it to work with stock roms.
[Galaxy S II General] 3waygeek:
Easy for you to say -- my last Unix experience was 20 years ago.:)

Anyway, I just took delivery on the card. When I stuck it in the SGS2, it offered to reformat it as FAT32, which I did. Once formatted as FAT32, the card appears to work pretty well. SDTools gives read/write speeds of 18 MB/s and 6.6 MB/s respectively; that suggests that the SGS2 is the roadblock, since the card is supposed to handle 30 MB/s reads.

Still, it'd be nice to have exFAT support, so we can use the microSDXC cards as they come from the factory, and to allow for file sizes > 4GB for DVD/BluRay rips and other HD video formats.
[Galaxy S II General] veyka:
Haha, it's easy to say but it's not that easy unless you are experienced in this kinda stuff. :p

I couldn't easily do it myself or i would :(
[Galaxy S II General] sorg:
do you wanna say that microSDXC already supported by stock SGSII kernel?

How much free space on this card SGSII shows after format to FAT32?
[Galaxy S II General] hiperjp:
In stock ROM SGSII supports up to 32GB SDHC, it won't support 64GB SDXC cards, regardless the file system format.
[Galaxy S II General] 3waygeek:
MicroSDXC is working on my SGS2. I've been running the SanDisk 64GB microSDXC in my phone all day. I had to reformat it to FAT32, but it's working fine.

The card shows up as having a capacity of 59.46 GB, and SDTools shows read/write speeds of 18.0 MB/s and 6.6 MB/s respectively. I've played both MP3 and videos off the card, without any problems.

I'll beat on it some more over the weekend, but all signs seem to indicate that microSDXC works as long as you reformat it to use the FAT32 filesystem.
[Galaxy S II General] ghost77:
For a class 6 card its normal , read is very good actually close to class 10. My 32GB class 10 Adata Reads 21.3 MB/s Write 15.5 MB/s.

That claim of 30MB/s might be with exFAT or plain BS marketing claims. Anyways i ordered one also 64GB is god send for media storage.

Just a fantastic little app i came across today with many anti theft functions such as:

It has three ways to protect your device:

- Remote control through the website www.cerberusapp.com

- Remote control via text messages

- SIM Checker (for devices that have a SIM card): you will automatically receive alerts if someone uses your phone with an unauthorized SIM card

Remote control allows you to perform many operations on your device, like:

- Locate and track it

- Start a loud alarm, even if the device is set to silent mode

- Wipe the internal memory and the SD card

- Hide Cerberus from the app drawer

- Lock the device with a code

- Record audio from the microphone

- Get a list of last calls sent and received

- Get information about network and operator the device is connected to

- And much more!

The best thing is unlike most anti-theft app with a web console there is only a one off fee. Of only £2.50

Available from android market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lsdroid.cerberus&feature=search_result

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
Kinda sounds like your battery is whack.

I had an old ipod that did a similar thing, until it totally died - It would take hours to charge and report full, but then it would die 5 minutes later, regardless of time on or off.

If it's a newer unit, I would look into an RMA, you might get a brand new unit for just waiting a couple weeks, or at the very least, a used working one.

If it is not covered by any warranty, I say good luck, there aren't many sources to get Archos parts for replacement, you may be better off getting a new one, or waiting for the G9 series to drop.

Good way to find out whats really going on is to charge the battery full, then run a video loop to see how long it takes to fully discharge - according to the Archos website, you should get roundabouts 5-6 hours of playback.

Start there, then adjust the plan accordingly ;)
