Hi, I have a problem, when I try to mount /sdcard in Recovery I get error mounting /sdcard, the SD-card works fine in Windows and if I use Villain ROM. Any idea whats wrong?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Why do you want to mount SD card in recovery manually? If you want to use USB storage, you can enable this option with an extra option (Toggle USB-MS).

SwiftKeyed from CyanogenMod with Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazzydk:
So I can install another rom from recovery
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
You don't need to mount SD card manually. Just flash zip.

SwiftKeyed from CyanogenMod with Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazzydk:
I know but when selecting the install from zip the error comes.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Which recovery do you use?

Are you S-OFF? If yes, change to another recovery via fastboot.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazzydk:
S-off and clockworkmod 5.0.2.0, the original SD-card works fine.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Check a different recovery anyway, to find out if it's the SD card or the recovery. ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazzydk:
I will do that :-)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazzydk:
Another recovery did the trick
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pspuser007:
This recovery (5.0.2.0) did caused errors with me, too.

Which one have you flashed now?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazzydk:
I flashed to RMD recovery v 1.0.3.4 and so far no problem.

Error Mounting SD card- HTC Desire

Hi Guys,

I rooted my HTC desire few days ago and I tried to install LeeDroid HD with A2SD ROM with couple of addons through ROM Manager. And then when it installed and the phone rebooted I am getting the white screen with HTC logo folled by black screen with Android written on it. And it just stuck there.

When I started the phone into clockwork recovery mod and started to backup and restore it gives me an error E:/ Cant' mount/sdcard. Now I am stuck and need your help.

Please tell me how do I get rid of this problem and install another ROM and save my phone. A step by step guide would be really appreciated as I am new to this.

Thanks!

[Nook Color General] PoisonWolf:
So....now that this thing is out and it will be open source..............

<insert evil grin here with twiddling thumbs>

Thoughts?
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
SDK is out not source code. Anything built from the SDK will have the same problems as the Honeycomb ports. I can't wait for the source to be released then we can really dig into.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] PoisonWolf:
Oh....my bad. I guess I must have confused my lingo.

Sigh, I really hope it's open-sourced this time so people can start tinkering with it.

Nook Color is sad. :(
[Nook Color General] japzone:
But once its source is released I can't wait for it to be ported to the Nook Color. ICS has many features that would be beneficial for our 7-inch friend.

Check out Android 4.0 ICS highlights on the Android Dev site:

What are the ramifications of ICS having a native resolution of 720p? Will this hinder its ability to be ported to our Nook Colors and 6 month old phones with qHD displays?
[Nook Color General] alunral:
Well they did say it'd be able to go to other devices. I can't imagine them letting it only support new phones. The publicity they'd get for that would be absolutely terrible. Or people would force it to work on it once the source is out.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
Alright, so now ICS is around the corner and with all the hype surround it, can someone pls list the advantages of it? What feature does ICS offer that missing on Gingerbread/Honeycomb?

I know one is Widget is resizable, interface is Honeycomb-like.

I really hope ICS is ported soon for the nook color, because it's unusable at the moment
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
What's unusable, ICS (which is not released yet) or Nook Color? Either way, ufail.
[Nook Color General] cchant:
One of CyanogenMod's policies is to provide all supported devices with the latest software, provided that device can run it. So as long as the Nook can run ICS I bet we see a rom soon
[Nook Color General] Wifflepig:
Yes it does have a native resolution, and 1280 - 720, they said so right on the webcast.
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
It's must have been a misstatement or just marketing speak, Android isn't built in that way, every app and most elements have multiples to accommodate different screen sizes and densities, i.e. XHDPI, HDPI, MDPI, LDPI and so-on.

The Galaxy Nexus, the phone, has a native resolution of 720p, but the OS Ice Cream Sandwich will be resolution independent. Whoever said that ICS had a native resolution didn't know what they were talking about or was just saying it purely for marketing reasons.
[Nook Color General] swaaye:
Since it's supposed to be phone and tablet friendly it can't possibly be designed for one resolution. That would simply be unheard of for any OS.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
It was designed to work with 1280-720 from the start but not to natively require it.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] getontarget:
That's still not true, given the fact that 720p screens won't be going mainstream anytime soon. Google is stressing the flexibility of the update... going as far as calling tablet focused apps unnecessary and discourages it. The nexus devices have been made to push the industry further, but not design for their sole purpose, or give any advantage whatsoever.

I just wanted to add that honeycomb was the dream that never happened for the nook color(at least not to an extent where it's favorable). I originally bought it near honeycombs release only to disappointment when google comfirmed they wouldn't reveal the source code. Along the way, the nook color has lost a bit of it's appeal, but ics is the answer we have been waiting for... and far too long for that matter. I can't bear using these gingerbread builds for so long(even though miui helped) and my nook has been sitting in the dust for a while. Can't wait for ice cream sandwich builds for my nook color, and the tablet which sorta took it's spotlight, the touchpad.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
Galaxy Nexus is the first device to run ICS. Google worked closely with Samsung to develop ICS to work on the Galaxy Nexus. So yes it is true.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
If you are familiar with how android works it's pretty easy to see that it's not and cannot be designed around one resolution, there are layouts and resources for each type of screen size and DPI. Here is a screenshot of the framework-res.apk from the ICS SDK emulator and as you can see, every screen size and dpi is accounted for.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
Yes I understand that. Maybe I should rephrase ICS was built to add support for 720 from the beginning but development was still continued for other screen resolutions as well. Android is built to be as open as possible and Samsung wanted 720 on the Galaxy Nexus so Google made it happen.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
Probably this is what was meant by the statement http://twitter.com/#!/romannurik/status/126521539024797696

Gingerbread doesn't have any native XHDPI assets in the OS, so ICS may be the first release with native XHDPI assets(Honeycomb never happened:D).
[Nook Color General] psychoace:
Also mentioned during the press conference or at least around it was the fact that the Nexus S will be the next device after Galaxy Nexus to get the ICS treatment. The Nexus S doesn't have a 720p screen so obviously it doesn't need one to meet ICS's minimum requirements.
[Nook Color General] inportb:
Oh? I thought this was true as long as there was somebody interested in maintaining the CM port for a certain device.

Just because you find your nook "unusable" and can't figure out how to make it more usable.... don't mean those of us that have figured out how... and put efforts in for others' benefit... trolls :rolleyes:

If you truly find it "unuasble" feel free to send it to me... I have a friend who could use one :D and I can make it usable for them ;)
[Nook Color General] SCrid2000:
What he means is he can't use it anymore cuz his mom caught him using it to look at animal pr0n.
[Nook Color General] KitF:
Or it's so slow even at 1.2Ghz it's nigh unusable if you have any amount of apps on it. I've had this thing since December, I want to like it but the interface is just so laggy. Hopefully ICS will lessen this somewhat.
[Nook Color General] inportb:
Everything about ICS is about twice as large as it was for Gingerbread... including the build requirements. This thing is big. Do you know something I don't?

Ah, but in general, this is not true for "all supported devices."

I'm also quite confident that we'd eventually have an ICS build for our Nooks.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
What you using honeycomb? That is unusable....

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] speedfreak007:
i think it's unusable because it's kinda laggy, there aren't that much tablet apps for android 2.3 (the "normal" apps don't use the screen estate as they should), ... it just doesn't feel like a tablet at the moment, just like a giant cellphone without the phone.

i didn't call him a troll because i disagree with him; he doesn't have to flame me because i'm not a native english speaker and forgot a pronoun.

Did you guys see this yet? Video of ICS running on NC:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiuWL4ohePQ

edit: sorry, looks like a fake. got excited there for a minute.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
Firstly, about "him" you mentioned above, please, don't take it too serious. I personally don't think he flamed you at all. Com'on, chill out.

Secondly, nothing is perfect, if you got problem with your device, I personally think you should seek out for help instead of posting only 13 posts then jumped to conclusion the NC is unusable. If you browse the site, I'm sure you've seen a lot of questions asking about virtually everything. We're here to help and make it better but b4 we can help you, do post your questions and seek for answer. Giving up trying on your device wouldn't get you any knowledge about your device.

Thirdly, you said "there aren't that much tablet apps for android 2.3". I do think the statement is somewhat silly. Which app(s) do you look for?
[Nook Color General] alunral:
You're doing something amazingly wrong then, because my Nook works perfectly fine with absolutely no lag. Using CM7. And everything else works pretty well to me.
[Nook Color General] patruns:
There aren't any because 2.3 is not a tablet o/s. As to tablet apps in general, there are not many because they have to be written differently for Honeycomb so developers are not spending the time when the vast majority of Android devices still use Gingerbread or earlier. ICS is supposed to solve that by not having to develop separate apps for tablets and phones. The o/s is supposed to take care of that.
[Nook Color General] FloydF:
I have found no shortage of Apps for the cook running CM 7.0 or 7.1, and both have been very stable for me. Unfortunately most of the Apps for Android seem to be really bad games, but that's my opinion.

I'm not sure what people are looking for, but the Nook Color is not a desktop/notebook replacement and never will be, at least not for me, it just can't run the software. For me it is a good e-book reader, internet device, media player, occasional e-mail client and office client, and maybe with remote access to my other computers, but not great without a mouse. I have not been able to get the mouse/keyboard thing resolved, but I haen't found an acceptable bluetooth keyboard. Once that happens, and with ICS I expect it to be much better, but I never expect it to replace a full computer.

But most important to me, it is far better than I expected from the $250 e-book reader I bought from B&N. IF you don;t like yours, I would be more than happy to take it off your hands for free and you can get something you would be happier with.;)
[Nook Color General] speedfreak007:
That's what i meant by saying that it's "unusable" at the moment. Maybe i used the wrong word (i do use my nook often), but when i compare it to an iPad, it's just a big phone. I know you can't compare a 250 dollar device with a 500 dollar device, but i just hope that ICS gives the nook a more "tablet feeling" than it has right now (i have cm7 and v6 supercharger script etc). the honeycomb ports certainly delivered the "tablet feeling", so think the future is bright for our nook once the source code of ics is released :)
[Nook Color General] DiDGR8:
I think the biggest problem with comparing the iPad and the NC isn't Gingerbread vs. Honeycomb vs. ICS. A 7" device is used differently than a 10" device. There is a lot of overlap but there are some activities that work better on a larger screen. I have CM7 running on my phone, my NC, and my TouchPad. I use my phone for calls and Pandora streaming to my car stereo. I read e-books and play games on the NC. The TouchPad gets my web browsing and textbook displaying roles. Email is OK on either my NC or my TouchPad and Netflix, Hulu, and AmazonPrime streaming is good on either, but I prefer the larger screen for those.

I find it very usefull to have the overlap when the battery runs down on one, I switch to the other and recharge as needed.

There are a lot of bells and whistles in ICS, but it looks like they "borrowed" pretty heavily from our "Tablet Tweaks" and backed off from some of the fumbles they made in HC. I bet ICS is more like Gingerbread than Honeycomb.
[Nook Color General] Harlley Sathler:
So here we go! I wish ICS be what I dream HC should be for the nook! I'm happy with mine, but certainly a more polished OS will be welcome.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
Funny that you say the Nook is a big phone because that's exactly what people called the iPad when it first was revealed. That's basically what a tablet is and I for one am okay with that.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] cabbieBot:
Has anyone on the team like dalingrin said anything about ICS?
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
From twitter:

@dalingrin Hey, now that ICS source code will be out in mid-november (after the nexus comes out) will you focus on TP or other devices 1st?

Dalingrin: once ics is out ill have 3 devices to play with, Touchpad, Nook Color, and Galaxy Nexus. Probably Touchpad

If it's going to be like honeycomb, When the menu button has a function, the menu button will appear. Otherwise, it's not shown.

Nexus S ICS port already out.

When will our Nooks get a bite?
[Nook Color General] liam.lah:
I wouldn't hold my breath, the ICS port is simply an SDK port, any ICS port to the Nook Color would be akin to the Honeycomb ports that currently exist. Nice to look at, but not practically useful.
[Nook Color General] japzone:
The real ICS source will be released when the Galaxy Nexus launches (around the second week of Nov.) meaning we may see a real port of ICS to the Nook Color around Christmas. Although that depends on how determined the devs are and that B&N possibly releasing something new doesn't distract them.

Q: When will Google open up the source for 4.0 Android? Open Source.

Hugo Barra: We haven’t given a date yet, but it will be some time pretty soon after the first new devices launch on it. Very very soon.

Matias Duarte: It will be the same strategy we’ve done for all out other open source releases – put products on the market, then we open source it, and what this open source is – phones, tablets, everything is covered in it.

Hugo Barra: And the SDK launched today, already available on Android.com.

Matias Duarte: So you can start making those gorgeous apps right away.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
That should not be a problem, since the nooks memory is easy repartitioned to whatever we need (within reason of course)..
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
Yeah Nook has 8GB compared to my phone with 200MB. Most phones have about 2GB so I'm pretty sure we're good.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] votinh:
8GB is the total, however, only roughly 2GB reserved for /system but again, it should be more than enough for ICS.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
But as i mentioned, the nooks memory is easy to repartition.. We could have a 5 gb /system partition if we really need it (though, 5gb would wipe out the extra internal stroage, which is ok, since we have SD)..
[Nook Color General] kbdbloak:

[Nook Color General] Breslavets:
I'm afraid we will have not enough free RAM after system startup.

For example now, with CM7(207) I see ~200MB of free memory.

How much we will have with ICS ?

I'm sure more less.

It means the "swop" for running apps.
[Nook Color General] frenetic:
We have honeycomb built off the SDK, it's reasonable to assume we could see ICS built from the SDK. HOWEVER - it's not worth it. Wait for the source code and the next CyanogenMod, we will get ICS.
[Nook Color General] aboveliquidice:
I like the NC a lot... but saying it has no lag is utter BS. It's nice, but lag free it is not.
[Nook Color General] AmericanDane:
What you're describing isn't the price tag but the applications. There is plenty of crap applications on both ecosystems, but Apple has the gestapo making sure you don't get as many force closes...

If you browse the web, read books, lookup things, do a few email things and watch a video (including FLASH!) then you have a tablet. If you want something more then buy a netbook. And if you want more but a laptop...

I do get your point about the "finishing" of the OS. No doubt Apple has done a great job of making their product pretty, whereas the Android market has been a collection of hackers and quick and dirty functionality creators who have all made an eclectic system which shows signs of baling wire from time to time. It's very reminiscent of the IBM clone days when the flood of companies were all marketing IBM clones and they all offered better value and they all stretched the envelope and we all got better computers as a result. Some would argue that Debian and Slackware gave us the tablet world we see today. We're in the "ugly" stage when hardware makers put goofy unique file structures and implementations in their stuff for goofy reasons. Very soon we'll see this all get standardized and the whole idea of rooting will be routine and stock and everyone will have identical directory structure and hardware will be simplified and more universal. Once the hardware jungle gets settled down you'll see the effort go into making things prettier.
