This is still a thread for checkrom V6 and as long as there's no V7 ICS so will it stay if you like it or not ;-) And there are still people installing V6 in need for help. So guys stick to that. And be helpful to each other. That would be much better!

Hi.

First of all, I would like to apologize for asking a question that has little to do with this rom - but since so many has switched/tried ICS some might point me in the right direction...

I'll happily delete this post if anyone ask me to.

I have tried Hydrog3n ICS rom (with siyah 3.0.1) for a few days, mainly out of curiosity and because I'm a flashaholic :-)

Coming back to my nandroid backup of CRRv6 (with neak 1.4.2), my phone tells me my external sd have become corrupt - and wants me to format it.

The normal place to find external sd (/sdcard/external_sd) is now just an empty folder.

On Hydrog3n rom, the content of my external sd was found in "/exmmc" (or "/emmmc", I might remember the name incorrectly) folder.

This folder is not available anymore now on v6.

Of course, I could use a computer to backup the sd and format it. BUT since I'm at a cabin on the mountain now, I don't have this option..

Is there a way to "fix" the external sd, without loosing the data?

I could also just go back to my ICS nandroid backup, but I'm afraid to mess it up even more (taking away the possibility to use a computer when I get home).

Any ideas?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
@ iamsnah

You'll want a windows pc and insert the sdcard through adapter and go to my computer and the drive / properties / tools / error checking / and scan and fix errors. If still corrupted, use some free file recovery tool to try recovery docs and files

Im done on this topic. Good day ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] beston94:
Yes, you just try to help...But is telling someone to stop asking about the v6 version of the rom, helpful? Is it? Please answer this question honestly. And I really couldn't care less whether or not you've seen a useful posts from me and thank you for pointing that out. You can give your opinions, but you cannot stop other people from asking about v6. If they have any problems, they will come here and ask their questions and have them answered or simply use the search function (which not many do). I'm not trying to insult you or undermine you, but I'm just trying to give other people what's fair and that's support from the developers that are more than happy to help everyone, that is if the question hasn't been answered already.

Have a nice day...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rinoko72:
Had the same problem, my pc could not reformat the sd-card..

I put it my old Nokia E72, that reformated it :eek: , and then it worked fine in my GS2 afterwards... ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] IamSnah:
Tried it now, hoping for the best...

It's all there, back to normal (in /emmc/) with everything in place.

I'm guessing you'll have no problem if you go back to v7, since it will be a "full wipe and install" because of the jump to ICS.

Will try to go back to v6 and have a look at the external sd on a computer, when I get home again... (could be useful for someone else to know what happens).

[Galaxy S II Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Curious why this happened to you.

I went from CheckROM to Hydrog3n, and then back to CheckROM via a CWM restore with no problems regarding external SD card.

I'm currently trying out D4 ROM but considering coming back to CheckROM GB as I just dont like the dreadful ICS scrolling, particularly in the browser.

You got me worried now!

Installation is the same as every other rom, the only little difference is that you HAVE TO FORMAT SYSTEM as well. Read the instructions in the OP and kill some time until CR7.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Slim is a nice rom. Formatting system should be done for every rom though... Not just for slim.

with regards to hydrogenICS, i think it is a known issue that in AOKP you cannot find or look at your external sd when plugging to your computers.

you can somehow view it on your device through io file manager>press mnt>emmc folder..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
I think that's correct. I'm not running aosp at the moment so I can't check.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Saving your dual boot siyahkernel partition for CheckROM v7 ? :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] IamSnah:
That is true, and I said so in my original post.

The problem is when I returned to v6 via nandroid, the external sd was "corrupted, please format" and no access to card at all.

When I reinstalled nandroid of Hydrog3n ICS, the ex sd was back with all data in /emmc.

Will look further into this when I get home...

No need to panic though, as several people said they could switch without this happening.

An if it happens to you, just make sure you have a ICS backup so you can access your data again

(I'm guessing I also can get to it via an adapter on my computer, will check and report when I get home)

I am allergic to cats.. I do like to watch em from afar though..

After 2 days with CM9, nice, stable, nearly all my apps work on it.. I am restoring a nandroid of V6 again. The main reason being the battery drain. I even ran it with the Siyah kernel but 15% in an hour and a half with only about 10 minutes screentime?

I am actually thinking about keeping V6 up and running when V7 is out.. I hope that the battery on V7 will work as long as it does on V6 but I fear it won't.

I've tried several ICS roms and have always returned to GB Checkrom v6. Too many issues with ICS, I'm happy to wait till Sammy release an optimised firmware / base update, nevermind waiting on CRv7.

Do have a question though, CR is heavily dependant on Jkays mod, from what I understand Jkay isn't affiliated with CR (Correct me if I'm mistaken please), what happens if Jkay dropped support for S2, moved to a new phone etc? Does Checkrom stop with it?

I know Jkay doesn't even use these custom roms, the dependency is one way!

Until then, CRv6, Jkays mod, Siyah 2.6.9 and TW 4.5 (with 2000mAh battery) is my weapon of choice

First of all, I'm trying to stay on topic - even though this is regarded to ICS, it is about coming back to CRRv6 and a problem that occured after restoring a nandroid backup of v6.

Have now recreated the problem when I restored my nandroid backup of v6, after trying out hydrog3n ROM (access to external sd was again possible after restoring a nandroid of ICS backup - in /emmc folder).

It seems the problem only occurs when I have the external sd IN THE PHONE while restoring v6 backup. When I tried it without the card in the phone. There is no problem accessing the card on v6 (restoring, one boot - then inserting external sd).

This is a strange thing, that I have no explanation for...

I'm finished with this now, as I plan to patiently wait for a new version of CRR.

Just thought it would be useful for anyone else experience this, if i shared my findings. Several others have reported no problems with going back to an CCRv6 backup, so something must have gone wrong on my phone.

To summarize:

IF you have a problem with accessing the external sd, after returning to CRRv6 after trying out other ROM's (and getting a message that your external sd is corrupt) - don't format, try to restore backup without the sd in the phone.

Worked for me, no guaranties it will work for anyone else..

btw: checked the sd on a computer, using a adapter - nothing funny there, all seems normal (and all data still there, after successfully restoring nandroid backup without having the card in the phone)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] virus786:
to save your IMEI number, MAC address and other unique device specific data.

IF you have not made a backup, you could end up with a very expensive paper weight if something goes wrong and you don't have an efs backup.

DO it just in case. Save it on your phone's SD card AND on your PC!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Honchay:
After a time of testing ICS roms, the best I've tested was the WanamLite 10.7, that was the most stable and functional ICS rom I could try.

After all, I'll still prefer Gingerbread, so right now, I went back to CheckRom V6.

The reason? There are many reasons, most of all personal preferences.

Some reasons may be...

The performance, after trying based Sammy roms, AOKP/AOSP, CM9. I can conclude that I feel some lag or sluggish on some apps and the UI in general with different launchers and different kernels. All have the same results.

The touchscreen sensitivity, seems to have a small or short delay in most of case. Sometimes Its very annoying because you need to push a little harder or repeatedly regardless of kernel I have.

Some apps are unsupported or cause inestabilization in the system. In some case I get freezes for 1 sec or 2.

The GPS it's OK but works better with GB in my experience, tried different baseband.

The battery does not last long compared to GB for me, in GB I get 7hr screentime and 14h of standby with the same configuration and desktop panels.

Don't get me wrong, ICS has many improvements like browser, multitask, etc. But my phone feels better and more solid with GB.

Each installation I made with their respective Wipe Data/Cache/DalvikCache, Format System/Data/Cache and emmc.

Now, Im happy with CheckRom V6 :) Smoothness on board and Solid.
