Only way I take contributions is the market https://market.android.com/details?id=net.andirc.jcasedonate for now, funds are used for devices.

That error just means you already had superuser installed
[Kindle Fire General] Serial_Noob:
OK, first --- Thanks VERY much for the exploit/root. It worked perfectly.

Second, an issue that may be of interest for those who rooted 6.2 with SuperOneClick and got broken by the OTA - android market comes back up during root, but force closes immediately. I figure reinstalling it or the framework or both will fix it. I hope.

Third, I get stuck at fastboot in your TWRP Installer script.

Press any key to continue . . .

Waiting for Root ADB...

Setting boot into Fastboot (4002)...

<idme> Invalid permission

Restarting in Fastboot (4002)...

reboot: Operation not permitted

Installing TWRP...

If we get stuck here for awhile, power the kindle on and off a few times.

< waiting for device >

Stumped here. I'm new to Android, so I have no idea why the invalid permission.
[Epic 4G General] dewayne25:
My epic 4g is running ei22 Legendary v.1 with the samurai 3.3 assassin kernel. I am a bit of an app whore and have loading it up with nearly 260 apps. I have accomplished this with the use of a 2.5gb ext4 partiton on my class10 16gb sd card, the darktremor script and the a2sdgui app. With this setup I am have all the storage I need and then some.

My question is; is it possible to repartition in order for more ram as opposed to storage?

I have excluded a fair amount of apps from starting up at boot, and I aggressively manage my memory with a memory manager, but I still feel I need more ram.
[Epic 4G General] iatedeadpeople:
I believe ram is a completely different chip in the phone, opposed to the storage space, because it functions a lot differently. But I may be wrong.
[Epic 4G General] styles420:
Wait, WHAT?! The ram isn't in our SD cards?! You don't say! Although I was starting to suspect something when I noticed that if I remove the SD card (or mount it as USB storage), the phone keeps functioning, and I know that can't happen with any computer when the ram is removed...

The OP only mentioned partitioning of the SD card, not internal storage. Also, ram isn't partitioned... he is most likely referring to creating a swap partition on his sd card, which the system would then use as additional storage space for temporary data that would normally be held in ram. However, the CPU still needs the data in ram in order to interact with it, so if the required data is actually in the swap partition, then the system would need to free up some room in ram for the required data (often, by swapping places with data in ram that isn't currently needed, hence the name...

@OP - I'm fairly certain the Epic doesn't currently support swap files/partitions, but I recall seeing mention of other android phones with that ability. But it shouldn't be necessary, our phones have enough ram - if you are running out of memory (errors, not simply seeing a low amount of available ram) then you either have something wrong with your phone, or you need to stop trying to keep all of your favorite 3d games loaded at the same time, lol
[Epic 4G General] codest3r:
Our phone does have the ability to support swap. Some Bonsai releases support swap. First you'd have to make sure the /sdcard was partitioned for swap to have a place to reside. Then, it'd have to be enabled in the kernel and there are tweaks to "swapiness" that sets aggressiveness of swap use - basically swap enable will try to take dormant items in RAM and move them to SWAP to free up RAM. You can run 'free' command from the terminal to see how much swap is available and in use.

All that said - I don't think the OP is referring to SWAP or RAM - as those would only help free up running memory. OP seems to be interested in more room on his OneNAND data partition and SDCard for Apps to be installed.

RE OP: CM7 MTD downsized the /cache partition in OneNAND and gave a sizeable boost to /data space for more apps (see images posted by AproSamurai showing free space). If you run the command 'df -h' from the terminal you'll see the size (total, used, available) of /system, /data, and /cache. On CM7 I have the following sizes, respectively, 268.5M, 676.5M, and 25M. Side note: The 25M cache isn't large enough for all Market apps to download though so noobnl fixed by mounting /cache/download on /data partition (MTDBlock3) to allow for larger apps to cache in download directory before install.

If you're sticking with a GB TW ROM though - I don't understand your setup. Why not just use the built in GB capability to move Apps to SD Card in Settings -> Applications (select app and "move to SD card" for those compatible/capable)? I don't get why you need to create a separate EXT4 partition and use 3rd party tools. Can you elaborate on why they wouldn't work?

Rereading your OP - NO - you can't get more RAM to fit in the phone. It's got what it's got and you can't get more from it. Enabling SWAP may help, terminating resident apps in the background MAY help, but at the end of the day you can't increase the RAM available. You'll need to better manage what you have.

Please don't confuse RAM with storage memory - that got me turned around in your OP. :)
[Epic 4G General] dewayne25:
Sorry for confusing you, if I did. I wasn't interested in partitioning my sd card for more ram on the sd card. My interest is in using the cache space for ram. I don't understand how a phone can be stated as having 512mb's of ram and 1gb of rom and not be. Yet all the epic can muster is 362mb of ram, most of our performance issues are due to that... If there was a way to unlock any more ram in samsung's specs claim I wanted to know.

I would have loved to use the .android folder to save my apps but my dalvik cache would fill the internal space and limit me to about 180 apps. With the Darktremor script and a2sdgui I am able to put my Dalvik on the ext4 partition of my SD card.

[Desire HD General] l33ch0r:
I've got following problem:

While I was on ARHD and before, battery monitor widget always showed me my battery has a capacity of 1230 mAh

Now I'm running CM7 for a week now and yesterday it happened, that I had to restart my phone and the battery fell from 45% down to 10% -

Well, I tried to charge it, but within 3 hours it couldn't reach more than 40% :-o

This morning, when I woke up, I took a look at the phone, which was charging over night. It told me this:

Now my battery seems to have only a capacity of 774 mAh???

My question is: Is the battery damaged or could I solve this problem on my own?

Thanks in advance ;)
[Desire HD General] paul c:
Have you tried charging until the phone is fully charged (ie receiving 0mA) wiping the battery stats then rebooting?

I recall something similar, but for me it was right after flashing a ROM & I was getting strange readings and jumps - but best to leave it charging for a good while, then do that wipe. I think there's an option in Settings for that, but you could also do a search on this forum for more details.

Also, try another popular battery monitor, just in case something has gone wrong with BMW (unlikely, but everything is possible)
[Desire HD General] l33ch0r:
Had it on charge the whole night. Received 0 mA for few hours.

Just recently wiped battery stats over 4ext recovery. BMW still shows this low capacity...I'll try a reboot now.

Just in case,I flashed icons, battery Mod and boot animation made in uot kitchen and while booting I don't get a boot animation, just splash screen and nothing (instead of boot animation it's just black and then boots up)...

Gesendet von meinem Desire HD mit Tapatalk
[Desire HD General] l33ch0r:
Well reboot and wiping battery stats didn't help a bit -.-

You think it might work, if I just wipe everything and flash CM7 again?

Kind of a clean install...because this really annoys me...

If I don't use it too often, it still has good battery life.
[Desire HD General] l33ch0r:
And again something stranged happen :-o

I flashed Absolution and booted. Restored all apps, including BMW. Opened BMW and had my 1230mAh again.

Then I flashed a battery mod from UOT kitchen and restarted. So far everything was ok. Then I used the option to brand desire hd in Absolution settings, so my phone didn't say it'd be inspire 4G. After that I restarted. (I had 58% battery at that point)

After the restart I only had 11% battery left and as I looked at BMW the issue returned and the battery only had a capacity of 774mAh -.-

Guess I'll stop flashing mods by kitchen for now and see, if they're causing my issue.

Edit #2: Found out, that it seems to be BMW related. Restored BMW, run it. 1230mAh. Restored data and had my ugly 774mAh again. Deleted data and it was 1230mAh again.
[Desire HD General] mmicha3:
good to Know that.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ZolaSlo:
Ok, I'm kinda embarrassed by this, but I can't seem to set mp3 for ringtone as of today. I know I did it before, either in music player or in file explorer by longpressing the file and selecting "set as" option. Today, I tried to change my ringtone and none of the menus don't have "set as" option anymore. Is it the Moto update?

br Zola
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bahathir:
Here is one of the way to use .mp3, .ogg or .mid as your ringtone.

1) create directory /sdcard/Ringtones

2) put your favorite ringtones in the directory

3) Restart/reboot to refresh media listing

4) Menu -> Settings -> Sound ->Phone ringtone -> Android System (if Any)

5) Choose your ringtone file

For Notification

1) create /sdcard/Notifications

2) put your favorite ringtones in the directory

3) Restart/reboot to refresh media listing

4) Menu -> Settings -> Sound ->Notification ringtone -> Android System (if Any)

5) Choose your ringtone file

This works on N1, SGS and RAZR :)

Good luck.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ZolaSlo:
Ok, tnx. But I should be able to use "set as" option in menus. Or not?

br Zola
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bahathir:
I use that method because,, I also cannot find the 'Set as' in RAZR :). Well, it is just one of the way it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ZolaSlo:
Thank you, used your method, works just fine.

br Zola
[Motorola Droid RAZR] skiwong20:
The only way to do it on this phone is to go to the stock music player and choose the song. Play it and hit your menu buttons it give u a option then to use it as a ring tone. Or u can do the steps above.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jiwengang:
It just has a long option list. Scroll to the bottom.

[General Questions and Answers] benyben123:
Ok so I have heard some talks about how how Titanium Backup was found to deter battery life once restore is done to a flashed machine.

I was wondering if this is an "urban legend" or is there some truth to this.

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Where did you hear that? Don't tell me inside a comment on the android market...

There is no logical explantion why titanium backup should or would do that.

If you have bad settings causing a battery drain, flash a new rom, then restore bad settings which cause drain.... well then yes.

But thats not titaniums fault, rather the users fault for restoring such settings?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damianmb:
Hi,

Just curiosity, if Cm9 is done as I understand from 4.x.x sources, why it shares the same problems as cm7? E.g RIL problems.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beardedwonder:
Because the problems are to do with the lack of access to original code/drivers. So all the problems that CM7 had, CM9 will have, the 4.xx source has nothing to do with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damianmb:
Thanks! And regarding the kernel... It is from the new source or also shares something with cm7?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beardedwonder:
The kernel is new, unfortunately the places that a lot of people want progress are dependant on proprietary code which samsung probably can't make available because they don't own the code for some of the hardware that they use.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootkited:
i am pretty sure by "stock" the guy also meant not rooted ;-)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Actually, rooted. Custom roms have ads filter built in. I was wondering if there's a flashable script or something. Again, apologies for my ignorance.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootkited:
if you are rooted you can easily install ADFREE from the Market ... there ist no need to search for recovery flashable zips ... the changed file is the hosts file under /etc/ where the known server addresses are redirected to localhost (127.0.0.1) .... so go with adfree ;-)

You can extract this hosts file script and push it to the /system/etc, then reboot. I use it on my glacier.

---[ UPDATE ]---

---[ UPDATE ]---

hello guys,

we (Team UtterChaos) would like to know if the user community for this device is interested in donating a device to us for development... Team UtterChaos currently consists of me and my dear friend Napstar and both of us are from Pune, Maharashtra, India...

some of u might know/remember me from the Xperia community or here at the Kindle Fire community, where i was lucky to be involved in brainstorming with some of the great minds at XDA to get custom kernels working on Kindle Fire... also i posted the first overclocked kernel for Kindle Fire even though i dont have device with me :)

i mostly develop for Xperia devices (x10, ARC, Play, etc...) and personally have a Xperia X10 & Xperia ARC... we recently received Samsung Galaxy SL as a donation from that community to work on that device... i mostly work on kernels and some fun stuff (dualboot, modified recovery, bootmanager, lots of tools, etc)... i also have a HTC Flyer for personal use... if u want to know wht all i have created/done/played with u can check the list of threads:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1141153

Napstar has a Ideos X6 (Spice MI410), and is currently leading the development for Samsung Galaxy SL... he has developed kernels, recoveries, etc for those device... if u want to know wht all he has created/done/etc, u can check list of his threads:

http://xdaforums.com/search.php?do=finduser&u=4224819&starteronly=1

currently he is busy with touch based recovery...

here is a live demo:

[YOUTUBE]QGc1WL19VNs[/YOUTUBE]

additionally let me make this clear... we want a working device + factory cable (so that we dont brick our development device)... you guys can work out a way to raise funds for this and send us a working device... its priced around 300$ here in India... if someone knows easier or cheaper (BUT SECURE & trusted) way to get it shipped to us here in India (which covers the taxes + customs + Octroi), do let us know...

so what do the users of this community think? do let us know in this thread wht do u guys think...

so taking into account the pledges so far, in this thread and the ones here (dont worry i have not counted repeat pledges ;) )...

the grand total is 185USD...

i will keep updating this post with names of users who have pledged the amounts...

once we reach the target amount, we will happily accept donations... but till then please wait..

oh and Merry Christmas to everyone!

[Kindle Fire General] DooMLoRD:
including the above two pledges... grand total comes to 205 USD

one of the users was kind enough to send me link for a great deal on ebay india:

http://www.ebay.in/itm/Kindle-Fire-...3?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item1c211d44f5

its quoted at: 13490INR (~256USD)

(there is a coupon available which might reduce price by 10USD)

anyone know if that ebay seller is trustworthy?

so that reduces our target amount to ~250USD

we are almost close to target :)
[Kindle Fire General] altitude909:
you know, it may be better just to have someone in the states grab one for you and ship it. Mailing it via USPS priority would be no more than $35 and I cant imagine the duty to be that bad on a $200 item. You can pretty much get those at a gas station out here since everyone and their brother stocks them
[Kindle Fire General] abhishekagrawal:
I got mine today from this seller- http://www.ebay.in/itm/Kindle-Fire-...7?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item415fde8089

Although earlier it was available at 12,700 about 10 days back when I applied 500 off coupon and got it for 12,200. Got it in 10 days fully sealed package. Very happy with it.
[Kindle Fire General] DooMLoRD:
He he... Thats there... The issue is at the customs... I don't know what r the policies for importing electronics... I have heard some horror stories abt how stuff gets stuck up at the customs office... So don't want to take risk...

Thanks for the info!!!

I will surely consider this seller then :)

Btw what abt warranty? And how to order that factory cable here in India...
[Kindle Fire General] altitude909:
Your factory cable is taken care of, just PM me your address and I'll get one out to you when I make them next week
[Kindle Fire General] abhishekagrawal:
Yes please do not get it directly, it might get stuck in customs and you know how it works in India, you will have a tough time getting it cleared. Btw i can share the exact path my kindle fire took to reach me, it was sent by Amazon to the seller at his Florida address and from Florida to my address by Fedex, landed in Chennai, cleared customs then to Bangalore and then to me(further 400kms from Bangalore).

I don't think warranty is applicable in India although the seller did say they are ready to pay one way shipping if I pay the other, do not know how true that it and how to avail that.
[Kindle Fire General] DooMLoRD:
the pledges have reached 200USD+

just a few more and we can start accepting donations...
[Kindle Fire General] xrishox:
come on guys we're almost there. these guys would be a great asset!
[Kindle Fire General] aktiv8d:

Dual boot would be great
[Kindle Fire General] jwilliamf:
What is the status of this?

@ DooMLoRD, just start accepting donation. Believe me, some will donate more than what they pledged for.
[Kindle Fire General] DooMLoRD:
hi the current status is 230USD (which includes the 25$ from aktiv8d)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20606409&postcount=2

as u can see we are still not close to the target amount... we do not want to accept the donations unless the target amount is reached (till it comes to about 95% of target)...

its just been a week since i started this thread... so we will wait for a few more days (say another week)... if we dont reach the target amount then we wont accept donations... its ok... we already have a lot of devices to work on anyways...

the decision is upto the user community... remember its a "consideration for donation", we are not forcing anyone :)
[Kindle Fire General] abhishekagrawal:
hey DooMLoRD,

230 USD is just about enough and please buy soon, its available again at 12,800 and apply a 500 off coupon so you get it in less than 230 USD.

here is the link- http://www.ebay.in/itm/Kindle-Fire-...5?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item1c22454fb9

Its not the same seller as that one which I bought from but the price is good and the seller has good ratings.
[Kindle Fire General] DooMLoRD:
