[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHAMAVELI:
Ok, so I've searched around and haven't really found an answer to my question, sorry if it's been answered before.

I'd like to format my ENTIRE SD card as an EXT3/4 filesystem, and was wondering if it would register as a normal SD card under Android, or will it be used a "system partition"? Would i be able to transfer files freely using a file explorer and would apps using the SD card (not apps on the SD card) for data run properly. I'd like to have a different file system used as FAT32 is a little ancient, and EXT is much better. I'm running Ubuntu as one of my OS, so mounting it on my PC wouldn't be a problem.

Thanks.

It would still be seen as an external SD card whatever file system you format it as.

Thanks. Although, i was reading through that thread and it says that the SD card will be reformated to VFAT on reboot. Is this true for the DHD too?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stearmandriver:
Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about this:

I had a stock phone for 2 weeks, which was perfect. No LOS, 18 hours battery life, wifi, gps, etc, etc all working great.

I wanted to root it for wifi tether, so I odined LostKernel (stable). I got wifi tether working. However, the next day I had 6 LoS issues where I'd never had one before (I do mean the genuine deal, circle with the slash through it, requiring reboot). Since my phone was not doing this stock, I flashed back to the pulled kernel. Still kept root, yay. Both times, immediately after flashing the kernel I updated profile.

BUT - while I haven't had another LOS (it's been 2 days), I did discover a problem: I can't seem to connect to wifi anymore. It sticks on "obtaining IP address". I've tried different hotspots, I've tried secure and open signals etc... no dice.

Is there a way to reset Wifi? Should I try reflashing the pulled kernel?

Thanks guys, you do awesome work here....

[Galaxy S II General] marcelotorres:
Hi!

I was recently faced with a problem of being a fake IMEI (004999010640000). My unit was just connecting with just one operator and not accept other SIM.

I researched a lot, talked a lot with developers as Odia and HellcatDroid (thanks to them for answers and in readiness for your interest in helping me). But I could not use more than one operator, even though my phone to be SIM unlocked.

After many tests and many disappointments, I confess that I was almost SGS II by negotiating an Optimus 2X, tonight I had the idea simply "take a look" inside the folder /efs/imei locating the file with mps_code.dat using Root Explorer. Inside there (in my case) is a code that refers to the Operator which shall belong to Rom (in the case of stock roms).

I located the code ZVV that in my country (Brazil), refers to mobile operator Vivo. But as use the operator TIM, for me nothing. Until I have the "brilliant idea" to simply change the code to ZTM respect to operator TIM, I rebooted the phone, and voila ... regained access to my carrier ... \ 0 / \ 0 / \ 0 /

I'm just looking for a way to recover the 3G, but otherwise everything is working again. :)

Edit: My 3G is working now!!! I gotta my phone back!!! :D

The most reliable way to recover my IMEI was taking my phone directly into the Samsung. Other ways to do it are not legal and much less desirable, since it is a crime.

Changing IMEI is illegal, however recovering IMEI is not. So if you were to change your IMEI from the factory one to one underneath the battery, there would be nothing illegal about this.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plwalsh88:
So I often watch TV show episodes on the websites for CBS, ABC, and NBC and just today for the first time I tried doing so while tethering to my phone using the Mobile AP. When I clicked on an episode, however, I received an error telling me, "This video is either unavailable or is being blocked by an ad blocker installed in your browser." The thing is, I definitely don't have an ad blocker installed in my browser; and, when I disconnected from my phone and instead connected directly to my ethernet, the video worked fine right away. I tried it for shows on NBC.com as well as ABC.com and received similar errors all pointing towards Ad Blocking software. Has anyone else ever experienced this or does anyone know the relation between tethering to Mobile AP and an Ad Blocker detection? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have two laptops and only one ethernet hookup, so I would like to be able to have good internet connected to both at once.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
do you have ad-blocking built into your rom? delete (or rename) the "hosts" file in system/etc
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plwalsh88:
Ohhh wow I didn't even realize that ad-blocking came built into ROMs. I just quickly checked in /system/etc and did see the hosts file, opened it up and checked out the text. I tried renaming it but it was read-only, and root explorer wouldn't let me remount as r/w. I guess I'll look into it more tomorrow. But I would imagine I wouldn't want to just straight delete it right, as whatever ads it was blocking would no longer be blocked? I could just rename it any time I encountered errors while tethering to my laptop?

Does reverting through Adfree simply delete that hosts file?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
if root explorer wouldnt let you mount you might have lost root somehow. re root.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plwalsh88:
I don't think I did. I just updated the su binary and when I reopened root explorer, superuser asked me if I wanted to allow root access to root explorer. I've read that before somewhere of people having trouble remounting within the /system folder. It let's me remount on folders outside /system, just not inside it. I still haven't figured it out. I suppose I could use terminal emulator right?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plwalsh88:
you were exactly right TR. i renamed the hosts file and re-tethered and i no longer received any errors about ad-blocking software. not to say the video is actually working too well tho - just keeps freezing. i guess streaming tv episodes while tethered to your phone isn't the best idea. anyway, thanks man!

Seriously, under the stickies thread, under the 10 commandments, the second item states not to use ROM manager from the market. You need to flash a kernel with CWM. A 2 second search in this forum will tell you what you need to do. Try FB's guide to gingerbread or just the noobs guide to flashing. Follow the instructions exactly and you will be fine.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
I agree.

The reason to not use CwM from Rom Manager is that the device tree for the galaxys4g is not complete. It doesn't have voodoo-lagfix, or the mods it takes to run a stock or modded rom:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_galaxys4g

If you want CwM, please follow the instructions here or here.

Also, from what I understand, a majority of the devs working on SGS4G dislike using CyanogenMod. So I wouldn't expect that stuff to work anytime soon. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
wrong

wrong

wrong

THe reason rom manger does not support the sgs4g is not that its not complete is the fact the device structure is diffrent then all the other samsung devices diffrent mount pont system stl110 blocks vs mmc blocking that the other roms use. the swapped parttion info. no interal sd card mapping so on so forth..

THe device does have voodoo lag fix... NOt sure where you are getting this info from but 99.99 percent of the roms have lag fix aka ext 4 support in the kernel once again wrong please post correct info..

as far as cwm goes the lack of gingerbread sourcecode is whats holding it up not the devs... Once samsung releases gb and the sourcecode you will see cm7 and more asop roms as we will be able to actually run custom kernels....

the devs here are not against it we just cant control what Samsung does....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Really?

The bml/stl devices come from the XSR/FSR driver.

If we had GB source, or if we go back to FY source, we could remove this driver and configure mtd block devices. But I don't think you want to move to yaffs2, or god forbid, jffs2.

The mount points are different, because the sgs4g, unlike the other sgs devices does not have internal sd.

The recovery has voodoo-lagfix(ext4), not the device.

If we moved to mtd instead of XSR/FSR, we wouldn't need voodoo-lagfix, but we would have to worry about the performance drop of moving to yaffs2.

Yup. I am a kernel dev. Not for android, but for embedded linux. I'm still learning android, but I understand how MTD block devices work, I just need some help when it comes to XSR/FSR.

Lashing out at me with your 'holier then thou' bit is lame.

I refuse to do it to you.

I had a ton of troubles finding the right downloads to get it rooted. In the end, I rooted and installed Starburst and wasn't really impressed; I feel like there was nothing to even be able to edit. It was like running the stock ROM with a new lockscreen.

I'd hold off until development increases on this device. I'm probably going to unroot mine.
