Spidey.. got this today driving me mad..

here is my output in terminal..

'df -hPa' = Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on df: hPa: can't find mount point.

ok.. whats this telling me?

I have wiped cache's

un-installed a couple of big programs/games..

TB is reporting that I have the following..

System rom: 528MB(127MB Free)

Internal 13.3GB(8.51GB Free)

SD card 13.3GB(8.51GB Free)

settings/storage is showing..

12.43GB with 7.93GB free..

I undocked it, rebooted it..

pulled out the SDcard and tried to install..

but no joy..

looks like maybe a reinstall of the Rom, then slowly load things back in..

edits: looks like a mounting problem.. as the dock is not mounting usb1 for the external now..

will flash Blades kernel and see if it sets things right..

as the only difference in my set-up has been to flash Roachs kernel during the week..

a Kernel flash didn't fix it so am doing a full reset...

K..after a full Factory/data reset..

TB give me this now.. (Market loaded a few in.. but I stopped it.. )

System rom: 528MB(108MB Free)

Internal 13.3GB(9.08GB Free)

SD card 13.3GB(9.08GB Free)

settings/storage is showing..

12.43GB with 8.46GB free..

Will load TB backup back in and see if the problem starts again..

But If I have had this problem.. I am sure others will come across it..

as it seems I got a corrupted file somewhere in there,

will keep an eye on it and see if it happens again..

but for sure, there was a corrupt system file..

Anyone know which are the actual system files are called for the mounting operation?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgcruzing:
**** happened again today..

after a clean install.. ran well yesterday..

this morning plugged in the USB Drive into the right USB and had a USB mouse in the left USB..

wonder if this is doing something to mount files?

Anyone know which are the actual system files are called for the mounting operation?

I might run with just the sdcard for the rest of the week shifting things on to it..

and see if I am getting a spike, hooking up with the usbdrive that is corrupting mounting files..

as this would seem like the problem.. its a western digital 500g portable that I am plugin and unpluggin

I modded the flash.cfg file in nvflash and increased my system partition from 512mb to 768mb. It works great. If anyone is interested in increasing their system partition size, I can post what I did to do it. You would need to backup your stuff as it wipes everything when you flash the new partitions.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgcruzing:
I wouldn't mind knowing how.. incase I need to do it..

mine has settled this week as not been plugging/unplugging in the USB hard-drive..

so I have narrowed it down to this spike corrupting some files..

I have backed up the system/lib files incase I have to dump them back over top of corrupted ones.. as it will save a new Rom Flash..

as still not had time to narrow down the actual file or files needed for Mounting USB's in the Rom

If you could post here or PM.. would be grateful..
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romified:
Basically you just use nvflash to flash a ROM, I flashed Prime since there was a nvflash version available.

All you have to do is edit the flash.cfg file in nvflash, and make the following change, and your system partition will go from 512mb to 768mb. I was trying to port a large ROM and kept running out of space, I made this change and never had a space issue since.

REMEMBER: nvflash will wipe all of your files and data, recovery and kernel as well. So make sure whatever you flash with nvflash is what you want in place. You can of course always reflash through regular CWM to any rom as well after using nvflash. You just need to flash something with nvflash to make the partition changes. And remember if you use nvflash in the future, if you do not edit the flash.cfg file per below, nvflash will partiton system back to 512mb when you use it.

It is only one line, so this is VERY easy. I have only tested this on a TF101-A1. I am not sure what the 32 GB (B1) models partition layout is like.

Open the flash.cfg file, and look for this (it started on line 93 of the flash.cfg I have):

[partition]
name=APP
id=9
type=data
allocation_policy=sequential
filesystem_type=basic
size=536870912
file_system_attribute=0
partition_attribute=0
allocation_attribute=8
percent_reserved=0
filename=system.img

Change the "size=536870912" to "size=805306368" and save the file. The above section should now look like this :

[partition]
name=APP
id=9
type=data
allocation_policy=sequential
filesystem_type=basic
size=805306368
file_system_attribute=0
partition_attribute=0
allocation_attribute=8
percent_reserved=0
filename=system.img

Now use nvflash as normal and your system partition will be 768mb.

I am not sure what the limit is on size or what else can be changed, so if you test, do so at your own risk, I have only changed system to 768mb. I think partition 16 is elastic and sizes based on space left over from other partitions (so this is where the extra space for system comes from), but I am not 100% sure on this yet. But do let us know if you do experiment as to what you learn ;)

By the way, the "805306368" number is a number calculated based on bytes & cylinders (or something along those lines) :

1024 x 1024 (1048576) x size in mb = size used in above example

ie: 1048576 x 768 = 805306368

The other stuff you posted makes sense to me, as long as you have a 16GB TF and not a 32GB like mine.

The /data/local/mnt/Linux stuff is because of my Debian chroot, and the sdcard is really a cool hack they do for mounting /data/media correctly for Android. The mmcblk devices are the partitions on the internal memory, as far as I know at least.

Applications go in /data. Your /system partition can be touched by some things but you are not generally going to be stuffing apps in there when you go to the market. You can make an app a system app with some program I think but I wouldn't reccomend it for most apps without good reason.

As root, you can see for yourself with ls what is in the file system and see how Android does stuff, it's mostly self explanitory with some poking but not as obvious as people like me (or smarter people on the subject) might think.

Idk how the file system performance would be impacted here with regards to free space, I know FreeBSD with classic UFS2 / UFS2+SU on PCs will suffer heavy performance issues if the file system is tooooo full but now I'm talking Apples and Oranges. But I would be curious how increasing the /system partition would work for performance with the TF's specifics.

Re: Transformer 16g system partition hack

Well after having it happen again to me today, I decided to bite the bullet and spend the night doing Romified's hack..(Thanks)

I nvflashed Prime 1.7 with the adjusted flash.cfg

As a note: using Notepad++ mine was on line 99

Will load it backup and see how we go..

Fingers crossed this will settle it down..

As said before.. once the problem starts.. even wiping programs off doesn't seem to store updates or allow installs of new programs, so it seems that only a good nflash is the way to go..

Will update as the week goes on..

Getting back to the hack..

it is interesting to get in to the Linux partition reading..

As the layout here seems to give us a bit of scope to play with..

I played safe and didn't push it this time..

but.. that's not to say that there couldn't be some decent discussion on

the actual need for so many partitions and their sizes..

This was the Terminal dump before the hack and with a flash of Prime 2.1/Blades latest Kernel.(As tried everything else before going ahead with the Nvflash hack)

not only from market and also internally.. like in private data.. also apps out of system/apps

also wiped Market cache & Data..

but it doesnt seem to free up enough memory to allow even a 160k widget to download then download

an install from market..

Edit: Just did a test.. maybe its nothing to do with the actual Rom build..or Partitions but Market itself..

as I uninstalled a program downloaded from Market using another apps manager..

had a backup of it..

then re: installed it..via Root explorer.. installed no problems.. and is a 12meg program..

Hi Stevie,

Yes..one of the first things I did..

But to no avail..

I see by your threads that you have a fair knowledge of how the partitions work and file structures work..

Would you know what are all the files associated with market and where all the directries are associated with it..?

I have found market.apk

Market update.apk

But where is market dropping the files you buy?

And market database filed?

At the moment, I am still leaning towards market doing something screwy to me..

As the test with

1:uninstall with root explorer

2:then a reinstall with TB

Proves that I can write to the partition.

But a..

1: uninstall 2 programs- with market

(Which in theory should free space)

2: reinstall 1 program- with market

Gives me the error again..

because /data and the emmc share the same partition, it is as much as you can store on your tablet, so 14ish GB on a 16GB device and 28ish GB on a 32GB device, unless of course you are running ubuntu in dual boot which shrinks the size of /data

Yes, this is what I was figuring too.. that's why its frustrating me to be getting this error and leading me to believe that its a market problem..

I have already ruled out a space problem..

This is why I am in the need of ALL files that point to and are called by market to wipe off it.. so that there are no rouge orphan files around..

Then of course going to have to hunt down a another copy to load in..

which I should be able to pull from one of the Roms..

as I dont want to use the one in Roach's Rom.. as this is the one that is maybe causing problems..(Via some unexplained help from Market update)

I think you granted temporary root permissions to Titanium Backup, so if you close the app, and open it again, you have to grant root again. You should click on "remember" checkbox.

Another thing you can do, is to open update SuperUser app from the Market, and then, open it, and go to Settings ---> Check binary SU updates, so you have the latest SU binary version.

So i really need help now because i dont know where to look to find this freaking app and remove it.

Adfree or adblocker or whatever the name is, is not showing :

In app manager (running, installed, all)

In Titanium backup

In file manage HD (well i dont know exactly where to search but havent find anything with a similar name)

plz help

EDIT:

More info

usually when u install an app and u go back to the market, its say "open" instead of "install" well for adfree it still tell me "install"

Now i also searched a bit on the forum and i found some ad blocker program can be use without installing anything but by replacing an Host files.

I dont remember if it was my case, maybe since it doesnt seem that a have any adfree app installed BUT

I usually keep a copy of everything i put on my tab, and been around computer world for long enough to do a "backup" of any file i would replace.

I've looked on my pc, no sign of any host files that i dl or backuped.

So im totally out of anwsers.
