chattr not work on rfs

I have the same problem, because my /data is type rfs, it does not support chattr!

My phone is a new Samsung Galaxy Ace and System is 2.3.6

so in the future more people will look for a solution other than chattr, also because chattr will not prevent the try of a update and causes a lot of traffic.

Ok, so I figured this would be an excellent way to reclaim my sdcard from idiot things like Burstly cache folders and Open Feint, I gave it a shot by running: "touch +i /sdcard/burstlyimagecache" and it said something about that not being a "typewriter". Is there a way to use this to freeze those folders empty, or am I insane?

Thanks!

Edit: I'm dumb, ran the wrong command obviously. Gonna try again with the correct command and see.

Nope. If anyone can explain how this could work, I'd really appreciate it.

Not sure what that typewriter message is about, heh. This technique won't work on assuring in /sdcard because it's formatted as FAT, which doesn't support the immutable attribute.

How can we undo this procedure? I wish to update Google Play to 3.10.10 from 3.5.16.
[Android Apps and Games] kanewangkw:
For whoever want to undo it, just replace the "+i" in "chattr +i" with "-i" would do.
[Android Apps and Games] Adizzzle:
I tried and this wont work... can someone please help me? Id like to reverse this.

sh-4.2$ chattr -i /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk

chattr: reading flags on /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk: Permission denied
[Android Apps and Games] kanewangkw:
you haven't granted the terminal superuser permission first. I mean the whole command line should be like:

First: su

Then: chattr -i /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk
[Android Apps and Games] Adizzzle:
Thanks very much! Is there a good place to start learning about the terminal and its commands? Id like to educate myself a bit on this. :D

There's a real easy way to stop play store from auto updating its an app called lucky patcher Just do a Google search for it and download the latest it worked great for me download and install then force stop play store and uninstall updates then lucky patcher find play store Click on it and clear data then click on open menu of patches Then click on custom patches and asset the bottom you'll see one for not installing click on it let it do it thing and your all set oh and you must bee rooted hope this helps
[Android Apps and Games] antinieblaquemi:
I only have one question. does this have negative consequences?
[Android Apps and Games] lexelby:
I have had this hack in place for months at a time and never seen any negative impact. I suppose eventually google may remove the internal APIs used by the old version of the market that you pin, in which case part or all of the market my stop working. There's also the possibility that you may miss out on sales/promotions if the version of the market you have pinned can't see them.

As to wakelocks and data usage and the like, I haven't noticed any issues. I'm not clear on whether this fix causes the market updater to continually try downloading the new APK, but I haven't had any mysterious data usage.
[Android Apps and Games] lexelby:
I stopped using this technique when I got my s4 with 4.2 on it, because the market stopped freezing my phone. But now, with the new permissions "improvements" that I can't stand, I've once again frozen an older version of the market. It worked on my s4 running stock 4.2.1 and my tf701t running stock 4.3 (both rooted, of course). Goodbye, stupid and insecure permissions grouping! I also like that the old version I'm using doesn't bury "My Apps" in the sidebar.

This is probably a really dumb question but is anyone having problems with apps moved to the external SD card. I got a 32gb SD card and when I move apps there they disappear when I reboot my NT. I am sure o am doing something wrong...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jotekman:
Same happened to me. Backed them all up in titanium beforehand, or I would have lost them all.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] stanipcus:
Hopefully one of the more experienced users can tell us the one thing we are doing wrong... I am sure it is something stupid. Funny thing is I rooted it with indirect, returned to stock and rooted again with Snowball. I then rewrote some of the build prop to get more access to the Android Market and moved apks so my widgets wouldnt go screwy on reboot, all following instructions in this forum. But I cant figure out this stupid issue...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mark67222:
Hi all, I'm about to flash the Criskelo ROM and its asked to be put in the internal sd card.

Is this the usb storage folder that's visible when clicking on intern card or should I just place the zipped file outside of all the folders?? I'm guessing its outside of all folders??

Also I'm going to do a full wipe as I'm running lite'ning rom, won't this delete the Criskelo rom zip file or am I missing something? I'm guessing cwm delete's everything apart from zip files???

Sorry if this is a repeated question but searched all over and can't find an answer.

Been A long time Lurker here at XDA, so much great info and support!!

Ok so here is my problem I have a 32GB touchpad. I have WebOS running, no problems at all. I have tried many many times installing CM7 and CM7 XRON-ified. Every version and i get into this boot loop....

I have done an ACME Uninstall....reinstalled webos with the Doctor.... fresh installs of everything... full formats of "SD Card"... I am at a loss

After i have done a fresh install i will reboot into CM and it will be working... then just reboot, and start the boot loop...ill stop it on the MBOOT menu and just let it sit then boot back into CM and it will load... then randomly just reboot and go back to the boot loop...

I am at a loss... could it be hardware related... WebOS runs find and diagnostics that i have run in webos come back clean... Any one have any thoughts?.....

If you need any other info please let me know...

Thanks

I'm rooted with s-off and had super cid but now I don't. I was wondering if that was possible now I can't flash radios and custom recoveries. Sooooo the question I have is how's was that possible I haven't done anything recently but flash the team win custom recovery and then back to clockwork that's it but know my hboot says locked at the top in pink
[HTC Sensation] xxemoeskimoxx:
in order to flash the ICS rom you had to have updated your radio. when you do that it updates your bootloader to hboot 1.20 and that is a locked bootloader but thats fine. we dont need it unlocked. and also you can run supercid again with fastboot even on the new hboot version.

Use the search button, type nandroid+cwm and see what you find.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] freddy0000:
I understand what your saying but dont I need my stock firmware to use these and I cant make a back up as the tab is already rooted so all i would be doing is making a backup with the root still on

I need the stock rom so I can restore the phone to before it was rooted and CWM was installed
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] freddy0000:
The problem I have is I need to unroot it so I can send it back to Samsung for repair

So I need a stock rom and wouldn't making a backup with nandroid just back it up as it is now rooted

Its unlocked but think it was on Vodafone as the stock rom is P7500BUKH1 but I was wondering what would happen if I restored it with this P7500XXKI1 Open Europe

I left in the icon? Shoot, that's NFR... I might leave it due to laziness (can't remember what miui theme I kanged it from) - but I might change it back too.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sulsa:
Hello,

Recently the charge light on my phone started flashing when I plug it in to charge. While plugged in the phone switches to charging and not charging with the flashing light, as if I was plugging in the phone and unplugging it. Fortunately I have an external charger I can charge my batteries because it never charges while in the phone.

Reading other posts I've read that this could be due to an overheating battery, bad charger, bad cable or a bad battery. I have different batteries, chargers and cables and all have yielded the same result.

I'm Running CM on my Dinc . Possibly coincidentally this problem started when I installed adfree. However I have removed adfree and even flashed my phone with the newest stable CM.

Any ideas? Perhaps something fried in my phone.

Thanks in advance!

I cannot answer all your questions, but there is a tutorial in the development section, where you can read about most of these things. If you still have questions afterwards, ask then.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebubekirs:
For S-OFF, you should see at the top of hboot screen (Powering with volume button) "S-OFF".

1 GB sd-ext would be enough, i have lots of programs inside, taking just 340 mbs.

For other hboots, please read the first thread about "how to -- root, s-off, hboot etc."

You will use the same way, (recovery-install zip-choose zip..."

Enjoy CM :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markb63:
as quoted above hboot to check your s-off,if you are s-off you have more options available to you,but you can only flash stock hboot roms.if you wish to flash cm7 or cm7/r2 you must flash your hboot to change it...

would recommend ext4 recovery,with this you can partition your sd card,align it,and convert from ext to ext 4 etc.

fastboot comander for flashing your hboot,its more nOOb friendly ;)

please follow all rom instructions to the letter,or you will end up with lagg and freeze issues,read up on the nOOb instructions

I'm trying to pick a car charger that would work with the galaxy nexus. from what I've read so far the samsung CAD300UBEB/STD model seems to do the trick but a few review says that the battery discharges faster than the charger can charge it back under heavy usage. can anybody confirm or deny this?

and also, I would like to know if that same charger would work for a galaxy S2. I'm looking for a charger than can be used with both models because I have both phones. the listing of models in amazon website doesn't list the nexus or the S2. so I want to make sure before buying it. thanks!
