Indeed, except if you use Droid Explorer on your PC (you can read all partitions from your phone with).

Except your SD partition who's must be in Fat32, all the parttions must be in Ext3 or Ext4.

That's why I'm write that's you can format your Sd card with your recovery.

For exemple, mine is:

System => ext4 => capacity :549 MB => free: 101MB

data => ext4 => capacity :1156 MB => free: 427MB

cache => ext4 => capacity :142 MB => free: 138MB

sd ext => ext4 => capacity :0 MB MB => free: 0 MB

sdcard => fat32 => capacity :29543 MB => free: 15369MB

In my pc, the only partition that I can read is sdcard
[HTC Desire S] 456456:
I tried Droid Explorer but it is buggy, incomplete, very slow, and overall crap.

I tried RCMix3D 1.5 ROM with Sense 3.5 and Android 2.3.5, and still the SD card doesn't show up on the computer. I have HTC Sync installed, but it crashes when I plug the phone in.

The SD card is formatted as FAT32.

Is there anything else I can do to browse the SD card on my PC? What did you guys do to get your SD card to show up on the PC for the first time?

Thanks for your help.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Some daft questions:

Did the SD function fine ever, eg with stock ROM when you first got the phone?

Have you tried an alternate SD card in the same phone?

Have you tried a different USB lead?

Have you tried on a different PC?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Have you tried another USB cabel?

[Solved]

I found out what the problem was. After having a look at My computer -> Properties -> Device Manager, I found that two of the USB Controllers were not working properly and the SD card was detected as an "Unknown Device".

I uninstalled HTC Sync, fast boot drivers, and anything related to Android or HTC from my computer.

I then uninstalled the USB controller drivers by right-clicking on each and selecting Uninstall, and the same for the "Unknown Device". After a restart Windows started scanning for drivers for these devices and they started working perfectly again.

The SD card now shows up in My Computer when I plug the phone in, without the help of any HTC drivers.

I hope that helps others who come across this problem. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me with this problem. I appreciate your help guys. :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] fostrike:
Hey all,

I just got the g2x from ebay.

At first, when I plugged the usb to my laptop nothing happened, no charge and no memory mounting either (of course with LG driver correctly installed).

After a lots of (stupid and dangerous) attempts I manage to get the USB data working so... root=> ClockworkMod => MIUI rom was pretty easy.

But I still got one of the problems, the battery charge only when the I turn off the phone!

-When I plug the USB cable and the phone is ON, the battery icon never show the device charging (on both stock and MIUI rom)

-I tried: LG and Samsung wall chargers, PC USB and no one works!

-The cable is just fine on my Galaxy S, but I tried with others and still no luck

-Left on wall charge overnight and went from 32% to 28%, turn OFF the phone at wakeup and after my shower (10 minutes) the battery status give me 40%.

Any idea why this happen???

Tnx

Idk what hapenned. Can u still return the g2x?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fostrike:
Return the phone is not an option since right now is in Italy :D

I start thinking that could be a sort of HW failure, maybe some internal switching IC.

But the contacts on the connector are fine for sure.

Yesterday also the USB data communication with my PC totally disappeared again, no Windows sound when plug-in and nothing at all in the "Device Manager" list.

Even in ClockworkMod mounting the USB was a no go but, I was able to enter the NVIDIA APX Boot recovery :p

After flashing the CWM 4.0.1.5 USB start working!!!! then I just flash back the CWM 5.0.2

[Dell Streak 7] MrFilippo:
Hello everyone! This is my experience, I hope it helps many. And someone can help me with the problems indicated.

I bought the Dell Streak 7 only wifi just a month ago. Day before yesterday I received the official Dell update to Honeycomb 3.2 via wifi. I downloaded the file and, in theory, update would take 15 minutes. But this was never completed. The tablet was left dead, not pass to Dell logo. Worse. I tried a hard reset and did not work. The combination volume keys + turn on key did not respond.

I called Dell technical support for a solution y. .. I was told that Dell does not give the service support for Dell Streak in Spain (I'm Spanish) Apparently a phone shop (PhoneHouse) which I bought the tablet exclusively distribute them without the warranty, -not even phone- of Dell. When I called the Phone House also reassure me at all. His answer: bring the tablet to its own technical service and I would be returned at least one month! It is shameful that Dell agrees that its products are distributed without OFFICIAL warranty and support :mad:.

Luckily, before deliver it to PhoneHouse something wonderful happened. The hard reset worked. I had tried a dozen times throughout the day and Streak did not respond but suddenly (I guess they felt sorry for my desperation) it did.

So that was installed Honeycomb sweeping away all the data I had. All deleted.

My first impressions with Honeycomb 3.2 on Dell Streak 7 are as follows:

Good things:

--The system seems to consume slightly less battery.

--The desktop is bigger now (as if more screen resolution) allowing you to add more widgets and icons on each screen (there are 5)

--Desktop widgets can now be resized as you like

On the negative side:

--The tablet does not respond well often. In these first 24 hours of use, Honeycomb crashed (without the possibility of turn on the tablet) once

--Now, with windows xp, the usb connection tablet-pc dont work. The drivers are not valid. At the moment, my solution is connect via wifi, using "MyPhoneExplorer Client" application

--Applications that already had installed not downloaded automatically from the Market (as in a previous hard reset) Also, many applications that previously did work on Android 2.2 now dont work at all.

--Some official Dell widgets do not display correctly on the desktop of Honeycomb. Not allowed resized and appear as cut.

--Some applications are too small (the change of resolution I said before) and now the icons are too small to press them well.

There is no longer the ability to add folders to the desktop. However, the application "Smart Taskbar" is working well for my applications have ordered.

I do not know it will be problem Android or Dell, but this update has made ​​my tablet in less stable and usable than before.

Thanks to all.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] username235:
I was thinking about getting an inc2, upgrading from my inc, and I was wondering if it'd be worth it, does anybody have generally a lot of experience with the inc1, and gotten the inc2, and liked it better? Is the hardware well, better? What about amount of roms, and other software things of that sort; is there a wider variety available for it, than there is for the original inc? Another question, since the Incredible 2 and Incredible S are almost basically the same phone, would roms for the inc S work on the inc2, or would they just not be compatible? Thanks, whoever might answer these.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
I never had the original but i have had quite a few androids (aria, captivate,inspire, thunderbolt, and even an evo3d for a short time) i can honestly say the dinc2 is the most rock solid phone out of all of them. Its definitely underrated i love it. But no unfortunately inc s roms are not compatible
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] chattguy:
I own both of them. it's worth it. It's an outstanding phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] username235:
Alright, thanks for the responses guys! Hopefully I'll be joining the inc2 community here in a few weeks, though it's gonna be sort of hard to leave the original inc after many months being a flash addict with it...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
No worries we got plenty of good stuff to flash and our development is still pretty young. I think u chose the right phone, the thunderbolt got all the hype but i had one and absolutely hated it. Buggy ass phone with abysmal battery life, at least mine was
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
Just hope you don't get one with 2.3.4.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] username235:
Me too, I really don't want to have to get a clip just to be able to root it. If I do, hopefully by the time I get one, there'll be a way to root it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
I had the Eris, then the Inc1, and now Inc2, Love it. highly suggest it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cs011241:
may I ask, why not 2.3.4. I will get an Incredible 2 very soon but not sure about which version it has.

thanks,
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
They don't have S-OFF for 2.3.4 yet. I guess it just depends were you purchase it. I purchased mine on amazon wireless and it came with froyo.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] armchairbear:
I had the original Inc 1 and now have the Inc2. Underrated is the best way to describe the Inc2.

It's everything that I wanted my Inc1 to be: faster and better battery life.

I was lucky to snag one off ebay that had Android 2.3 on it, and on first boot I made sure I rejected the OTA. Then I rooted as soon as I could.

I think the Inc2 is the best Verizon phone out right now, and here's why:

1. Form factor - at 4.0" screen is big, but not too big. All high end verizon phones are too big, imo, at 4.3"

2. It's fast - sure, on paper, it's rated at the same speed of 1Ghz as the Inc1, but the the CPU is made with the 45nm process instead of the 65nm of Inc1, which means it's faster and more power efficient. Also the Increase in RAM to 768 helps too. When rooted and overclocked (up to 1.9Ghz), it can be as fast as a duo core phone, or faster in some cases. I think it's faster than a Droid3 (duo core), the Inc2 has more ram than the Droid3, that seems to help.

3. It's still 3G - imo, 3G is fast enough, I don't need 4G draining my battery. I don't know why ppl make such a big deal out of 4G, I think battery life is more important in something that's portable.

4. Good battery life - The Inc2 easily lasts twice as long as my Inc1, even with heavy use. And it gets even better when rooted using an undervolted kernel.

5. Good community support - there are a lot of good custom roms for the Inc2. I've tried 4 already and liked them all. And there are enough ppl using the Inc2 that you can find a solution to most of your issues with a quick search.

I don't want a giant phone that's too big for my hands, and doesn't last a day on battery, and is supposedly better than the Inc2.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
Great dev support
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] username235:
Awesome man :D, I'm pretty much completely sure this'll be my next phone, and yeah, I don't see why 4G is so important. I don't think I'll dabble in phones like that until that actually becomes more battery efficient. I was thinking about the Thunderbolt, but realized it's horrible battery life, and an extended battery would be too much bulk. Plus, a 4.3in screen at only WVGA starts making it look a little pixelated(sp?). I'd love the Sensation though, if only it'd work on Verizon...But oh well, the inc2 sounds amazing, definitely gonna get it, here in the next month or so.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ccgabe:
Love my Incredible2

My Eris 2 yr contract was expiring and I found a brand new Inc 2 on CL for $135. I ended up feeling sorry for the poor guy so I tossed in my old rooted GSB Eris so he would have a phone.

Bummer was, it had just installed 2.3.4... hopefully someone will come up with a fix for that real soon. G3 is plenty fast and the battery easily lasts all day. With moderate use it still has 50-60% at bedtime. Size is perfect, takes great pictures, it's very smooth and fast and so far absolutely trouble free. I just picked up another one for my wife and she can't believe the difference between it and her Eris. We are planning on going with NO contract for a while assuming I can keep my unlimited data plan. Highly recommended!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] username235:
There is that method with adb, but I mean, you have to know how to use it...I'm still learning that. And that's what I'm doing, not going with the contract, I'm gonna keep my unlimited plan as long as I can. Thanks for the response though:cool:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] missl843:
Couldn't agree more :) I upgraded from the first Inc and I'm in love. This is the best phone I've ever had. Love the size and battery life most.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ubuntunerd:
i have also used several phones and I have to say the incredible2 has been amazing since i got it, I would recommend it to anybody in the market for an awesome phone :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] trkaaa:
this is for educational and seeking knowledge Purposes only .

Incredible S Roms Could be installed on Incredible 2 , working 100% if you know how . But you should know that developers ( sense 3.5 ) don't usually make their roms Global as i researched . what is available now For incedible 2 are CDMA only sense3.5 roms ( No GSM Support !!! ) , for Incredible S of course it would be GSM only sense 3.5 Roms . if you live in a country that uses GSM networks only , Incredible S is a Better Choice because as i noticed is little development for GSM Support for incredible 2 , you will have to stick with what is issued by Verizon , and of course they would not issue Sense 3.5 .

Now to install Incredible S rom on Incredible 2 ( you must be S-OFF and Rooted ) :

1- you must have similar compatible roms for Incredibles S and Incredible 2

2- replace the Boot.img of the incredible s rom with the same one from the incredible 2 rom inside winrar window ( Don't extract then zip again , just drag and drop )

3- install the rom from recovery as normal , it will Boot OK

4 if you have error starting WiFi ,then flash this Kernel ( inc2_2.6.35.14#18 ) ,it will solve the Problem , thanks to EhabFG ,

the two matching Roms are

EhabFG Android 2.3.5 Runnymed V1.3|EXT4|Full Arabic sense 3.5 ( google it) - Incredible S

-MikRoms-Incredible 2 HD v2.1 [sense 3.5 GB 2.3.5] ( google it ?) - Incredible 2

Please not that Same procedure was tried for the updates issued for those 2 Roms , it did not work ( meaning they are not similar anymore ) although they use the same New Base 1.02.401.1 ????

Some developer suggests the following

- Replace Boot.img

- Replace Kernel (Module Folder ) inside lib

- Replace Sevice.jar in framework folder

hope that would answer your Questions

Can somebody help me out here? My battery life is really bad, today I lost about 10% battery indicator 4 hours with the phone lying in my pocket! When I use the phone its even worse. I am on cm7 nightly 09302011, and it seems like everyone brags about the battery life, just not me. 3g always on, bluetooth off, background data on, autosync off, no live wallpaper and å clock widget. What could be wrong?
[LG Optimus 2x] Mungulz:
Are you using a custom Kernel? Since installing the NeoBlaze kernel my phone has started using power on idle.. last night it used 40% charge while completely idle and not in use..

I don't really care because I carry 2 batteries around with me at all times, but it does seem changing around roms/kernels messes with battery life. Perhaps you just need to hit up eBay, batteries can be had for $2.80 shipped.
[LG Optimus 2x] Tr0gledyte:
Without Juicedefender, 10% in 4 hours with no use is actually pretty good for this phone.. I'm jealous. I get that kind of battery life with data OFF most of the time.
[LG Optimus 2x] tronderbataljon:
No custom kernel. Thought I read in the forum that ppl got like 3% loss overnight. Maybe thats without data...
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
get widgetsoid and turn your data on and off (and 2g/3g) on and off quick and easy.

who on earth needs data running over night anyway ?

same as watching full hd videos on 480x800 screen..... thats just dumb

Me too

I have read up on this a bit, but I want to be sure, as I am rooting and flashing tomorrow. So excited!

So when you do Volume Up after trying to enter Download mode (accepting the warning), you flash a ROM, you'll have a triangle on the kernel boot screen and a flash counter right?

And how do you get rid of it? I heard a JIG works, but I talked to a friend with an i9100 and he says the JIG doesn't work after a specific firmware. Does it work for us on KH7? And what value, the standard 301k?

Someone suggested this http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-s-download-mode-jig/ is there anything better? Cheaper? Anything that won't work I should look out for?

One more thing. Can a mod make a Q&A section like the Captivate had? I feel bad posting this in General.

Thanks for teaching an ex Android expert the ropes after being away so long *tear*
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Caliesv:
So far the only things I've read about reseting the count and get rid of the yellow triangle is the jig. I actually just ordered the one from that website. So ill let u know how it goes when ever I get it. I know my old cappy jig didn't work. Hopefully I didn't waist my money on this new one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yoderk:
From what I have been able to find out. It is the non-stock kernel that is bringing up the yellow triangle up and aside from flashing a stock kernel there isn't a way to get rid of it yet. I've heard that maybe a jig will help but haven't seen it confirmed anywhere
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Someone did have success with a jig.

Also, it only checks the kernel for "official" status when you flash, and it does not check the system image. So you can flash a kernel on-device if you have root from a shell:

dd if=zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RockRatt:
The jig I had for my captivate does get rid of the yellow triangle. Just turned off phone, held down volume buttons, inserted jig, then it said count has been zeroed or something to that effect. I rebooted and yellow triangle was gone.

Thanks for the confirmation guys :) Gonna order that jig now and flashing today!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kytrauma:
I used my home made cappy jig and it too cleared my counter and removed the yellow triangle.

On a side note the firmware on the i9100 that seems to disable this feature has to do with new bootloaders from what i read. And most of us former cappy owners have learned to stay away from unproven bootloaders.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Haloruler64:
Yeah I would not flash i9100 bootloaders.... why did they change them anyway? There was no serious firmware change.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pinoymutt:
Interesting. My new SGSII is on it's way, but I am curious about this as well. I've got a jig for my cap that I'll try, but if all else fails, has anyone been able to confirm that flashing back to bone stock (via the Odin pack that is posted) will revert it back to normal (i.e. for warranty replacements)?

EDIT: I also just read another potentially disturbing article that there may be a second hidden counter that counts how many times that the counter has been reset: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1117295&highlight=counter

I usually wouldn't care, but I've had to return my cap twice for warranty issues, and I wouldn't want to get screwed if I had a problem with my new one.

At the very minimum I may just try and root using SuperOneClick -- does anyone know if the process uses the download mode or screws with the counter?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pheonixdx:
Yes, the methods use to root involve changing out the kernel to allow SuperOneclick to work so this also adds to the odin counter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TechSilver13:
I bought my jig off ebay and I confirmed days ago that it worked. I bought it for my i9100 and it works for my i777 as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Yes, for SOC to work you must use download mode to install an insecure or rooted kernel.

However, the counter does NOT count system image flashes as far as I can tell - so if you use my "stock + root" system package, you'll get root without increasing the counter or triggering the ! flag.

After that, you can flash a zImage on-device as follows using an ADB shell or terminal session:

dd if=zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5

This will flash a custom kernel without triggering the custom kernel warning or increasing the counter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Haloruler64:
Oh my god counterception. This made me laugh hard in class, a counter that counts counter resets. DAMN!

This is scary though, and I don't want to flash without more info on this. I prefer to keep my warranty ATM. Had to warranty repair my Captivate once...

would this work in mac osx terminal?
