Would it be possible to partition a 64gb sd and then just mount the second partition? Just wondering.

Sent from my MB855
[Motorola Photon 4G] FrameCityJackal:
Doesn't hurt to try. I'd try a smaller SD card first to see
[Motorola Photon 4G] devastatorx:
Tested and confirmed that this at least works with a 16gb uSD card. Would be interested in someone testing this on a 64gb. Here was my method:

Using gparted or any disk partitioning tool I created two fat32 partitions on the SD card, and then loaded the SD card in the photon (although i also assume that this will work on just about all android phones).

Connected the phone via adb

adb start-server
adb devices
adb shell

Looking around in /dev I found the second fat32 partition at /dev/mmcblk1p2 (this could possibly vary by device)

I then used root explorer to make the root directory read/write. You can also accomplish this using remount or whatever method works for you.

I created a mount point for the second partition via:

mkdir sdcard2

and then mounted the second partition by issuing:

mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk1p2 /sdcard2

To ensure that everything worked I pushed two test files, one to sdcard, and one to sdcard2

adb push test1.txt /sdcard/test1.txt
adb push test2.txt /sdcard2/test2.txt

After the operation finished I returned the root directory to read only and then shut the phone down and pulled the sdcard and then mounted it via card reader on my pc, and sure enough both partitions showed up with their respective files.

It would be quite easy to add a startup script to mount the second partition upon booting the phone. It may also be possible to place the mount point inside the first partition on the sdcard so it would be accessible by the system upon boot with no other modifications. These are just my findings.

Thanks

My battery life has been HORRIBLE. That is the only issue I have noticed myself.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vita10gy:
Where are you seeing that?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zanderman112:
Just noting for anyone in here. If you have deep sleep issues, and don't seem to have an app, like Beautiful Widgets, doing it, Shuriken Kernel fixed that for me. 1hour of deep sleep, and opposed to 20 seconds before. However, I'll remindevryone, if you flash a custom kernel,most bug reports are useless in this thread. Carry on then :)

[Epic 4G Android Development] jct522:
So I'm wanting to update my modem from EI22 to EL30. I know there is a flashable zip for that if you are on BML. Since I was on CM7mtd is this CM9 build also MTD or is it back to BML? Am I able to just use that zip and update to the EL30 modem while on this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tonysohn:
Having CM9 on our phone is like dream come true! Thanks for the hard work devs. Unbelievably smooth and stable for an alpha build.

I haven't seen anyone mentioning this bug: Is anyone experiencing NO auto-rotation capability? Turned on the setting but doesn't work for me.

Also, is there a way to reduce the strength of the haptic feedback? I can't find the settings for doing that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] brooksyx:
I don't have link but if u search around there is a way update to el30 without going back to bml. Also this rom is mtd.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ICStevenC.:
5 hours off the plug and it's already at 50%. I have the brightness turned all the way down too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vita10gy:
But that solution only works because they made some kernel tweaks on CM7. I think the Shurken (I doubt I spelled that right) kernel has the necessary addition, but you might be safer just going the long way.
[Epic 4G Android Development] brooksyx:
I was talking about updating it through the recovery. Booting up stock recovery then booting the emulated BML recovery and flashing to modem that way. Does it matter what kernel u have to do it all in recovery?

Noob question :/ how do u guys get rid of voicemail notification that's stuck in the status bar
[Epic 4G Android Development] RyleyinSTL:
Covered in this thread a bunch of times...give it a quick search.

It depends on why your getting the notification. That said, call Sprint and have them reset your voice mail. Then use Google Voice for your voice mail and it will not happen again.

Settings / Manage Apps/ All/ Clear Phone Data. Cleared it for me, sticks until reboot. I still can't get sprint VVM to work for some reason. TiB restored app and data and it always crashes on me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
What do you guys have your wifi sleep policies set to? I believe it's listed as 'Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep' and you have the options of:

*Always

*Only when plugged in

*Never (increases data usage)

I believe previously it was stated that if you have the first selected, it could cause drain. With the last one, I believe it would go to 3G when the phone goes to sleep.

Would be good to know which options you guys have selected to see if there's an issue there.

Same this with marcus, would like to know which option he has it set for.

Does anyone know if Alpha3 has solved the 3 way calling issue? 3 Way calling does not work. you get a dial tone on the second call out, then nothing...and if you hit merge you hear an instant busy signal.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Osirus71:
Hey fellas, my Buddie has this Epic 4G. I rooted and installed a rom on his Epic a few months back. I think it was the first Gingerbread available for it here on XDA. Anyways, hes always had a not too great experience with his Epic with performance and battery life. Mainly battery life. So I want to update his Epic with a new rom and saw this one posted here. So how is the battery life for you guys??? Thats his main concern. Also, Do i need to update his phone/modem etc.. to anything specific before flashing this rom???? And third, what do you guys use for voice mail replacement...

Before I get flamed and told go read 100, 200 etc.. pages back etc...im just doing this as a favor for him. I have my own EVO 3D and understand when someone comes in asking questions but we make an acceptation when they are just trying to help someone else out.

I appreciate all and any information....

Thanks.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
This is only in Alpha stage plus it is meant to work with much more RAM in the phone so does not operate at peak efficiency meaning "this is not the ROM you're looking for". Grab CleanGB or any of the other EL30 TW ROMs if you don't really want to keep updating as new Alphas come out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zanderman112:
1, my battery life has been pretty good.

2, you do not *need* to update the modem.

3, on CM9, for voicemail I just use the 1 button/calling my own number on the dialer and go old school.

Sent from CM9 EpicMTD.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RyleyinSTL:
Use Google Voice for voice mail (Sprint GV integration is not necessary).

Flash to stock ROM or CleanGB ROM and update modem to EI22 or newer. Also update PRL.

CM9 batt life is generally okay for most it seems (and getting better) but defiantly not CM7 amazing. Kinks still being worked out (this is an Alpha after all). He will likely take a hit here. How much will be dependent on his situation.

If he is looking for max batt life flash CM7 (latest nightly). I was getting 1.75 days of light usage on a charge from that ROM.

...that's my take
[Epic 4G Android Development] Schnadam:
Quick question... themeing is not supported by trebuchet or is that something they are working toward? I know I've seen the messages in the theme area saying its there but not active yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RyleyinSTL:
It will come. Theme stuff is developing upstream.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JettMartinez:
For what it's worth, I wasn't getting 3G data after first flashing A3, I'd see 2 bars of signal in grey but the icon never turned blue and no data flowing.

A simple reboot seemed to fix it (after airplane toggle didn't), so make sure you try that before any more complicated solutions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adjmcloon:
If you need something that is reliable with great battery life I would flash CleanGB MTD
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonarchist:
Well hello there. Osirus71..........very thoughtful of you to be helping your bud........beyond the usual YMMV in terms of the performance of the device's battery life + data connection strength based on the relation btwn modem --either EI22 or EL30-- and LOCATION, perhaps your friend would benefit best by simply (1) installing EL30 modem first, (2) Updating PRL + Profile prior to (3) flashing the most recent CM9 alpha3 + immediately flashing most recent gapps THEN booting to system.........he can then explore extension of battery life by simply reading the last dozen or so pages of this thread to see how other users are managing this very issue..............BTW, do remember to create a good nandroid + for sure: wipe x 3, cache + dalvik + data factory reset wipe PRIOR to flashing CM9...........+ have your bud come back + share his results or what you ultimately chose to do.

...............personally am getting ok battery life, but not like my BML Legendary (or other ROM) battery life, but THAT is the trade off: going w/ newer ROMs that present additional functionality at the possible expense of battery life.........especially on evolving ALPHA variants of all stripes..............you are simply going to have to make the commitment to support your bud as part of the evolution of the cyanogenMod experience as it reveals itself thru everyday use (or else your bud will have to dip his toes in the water eventually)........good luck w/ this to you both!

*edit: lol, by the time this posted several differing possibilities popped up here giving you even more food for thought ;)

Chirp before phone rings

Just flashed A3 and I get the chirp before the phone rings. I had in A1 went away in A2 and now it is back
[Epic 4G Android Development] MajicManDroid:
First step would be to flash A3 without changing the Kernel to see if you still have an issue. I've never had any problems with 100MHz running but i keep the stock CM kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RyleyinSTL:
I was having this issue as well (stock KN).

For me...After the A3 flash I changed the min setting to 100MHz. Thus seemingly locking it out. So I rebooted and did not change any CPU settings this time (leaving it at 200MHz) and that seems to allowed 100MHz. Clearly this is still under development or I don't know what I'm doing....both strong possibilities.
[Epic 4G Android Development] CapsLockKey:
I had the same experience with overnight battery life. Left it unplugged at about 80% when I went to bed and woke up to it having 4% left. This is with WiFi on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
I leave it set to always and then let Juicedefender manage the Wi-Fi on/off. It does remarkably well, and can even turn it on and off based on gps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xinlitik:
Same thing with battery life for me. I lost 30% overnight... had wifi and data off. Stock alpha3 kernel, didn't touch performance settings. Battery monitor showed no awake time, but better battery stats showed a ton of little ones

Connectivity services

Alarm manager

RILJ

Activity manager (launcher)

And gtalk async (though I had uninstalled gtalk?)

Were the ones with the most counts. If it makes any difference, I wasn't able to get wifi or data to turn on in the morning until a reboot, and my battery did that goofy jump from 70 to 15 upon starting again. Before bed, I had charged till it said full.

In other news, the low battery led works for me now, and I'm excited to test roaming later today :) thanks as usual devs
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
It is a known bug. I can get it to stick until a reboot but then it goes back to 200. If you use voltage control you can lower the minimum and hit apply, and then also go change it in the performance settings.

Sup guys, haven't posted in a really long time(since htc touch pro2 days lol) I've had an Evo and now an epic 4g. Never bothered to root evo or epic till now that ICS is out. So far CM9 has been very stable for me and its been my daily since a1.

Battery had not been that great for me at least on the previous two alphas now am on a3 and everything is great. In settings under performance>processor>cpu governor I've set it to ondemand and minimum cpu frequency to 100 even tho after reboot it keeps showing 200mhz, but in cpuspy its showing 100 being used and it is now going into deep sleep correctly. On a2 I had cpu governor set to performance thus keeping it at 1000Mhz and not letting it go into deep sleep.

Overall its been great reliable rom for daily use, other than the minor bugs already stated its brought new life to my epic :D

Edit: added pics
[Epic 4G Android Development] RyleyinSTL:
Similar for me. Will lose 30% to 50% when left overnight for about 8hrs....this is with data on and perhaps a handful of in coming emails. My phone is generally asleep the whole time according to CPU Spy. The only wake lock issues seems to be with that nutty MMC. Worth noting is that while I have Wi-Fi set to sleep with the screen off it rarely does.

With CM7 I'd be doing poorly if I lost 8%.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Osirus71:
Wow, the thread is awesome. Reminds me of my EVO 3D threads. We always help each other out just as quick but i think you guys responded even quicker. I really appreciate it very much. I will go with the CleanGB v1.1.2 as you guys suggested and come back to this at a later time since i dont see my bud every day can can help him out at a moments notice if something were to bork up with this Alpha. By the way, Im using ICS on my EVO 3d and on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 is its fraking awesome. Ive been on it for almost two months and wont go back to GB.

Anyways, you guys were mentioning upgrading modem to EL30. My question is, can i just do this in clockwork or Odin? I was reading somewhere that if i do this it will unroot my buddies Epic. Is that true? Also, whats this BML or MTD?? File structure i presume? If so, should I go with the MTD route?

Sorry for all the noob questions, but like it said, Im an EVO 3D guys and some of this is kinda of specific to you guys Epics.

Can I do a straight update from alpha 2 or do I need to wipe all my apps and data before installing alpha 3? Sorry, probably a dumb question.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MajicManDroid:
I did a no wipe update from alpha 2 and100MHz is sticking! Battery (1800 mah) life is doing better than on previous alphas. Good work guys.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chrishighs:
Flash it straight over the top of alpha 2, then gapps before rebooting. Make sure to run an nandroid backup first.

@Osirus71, this thread is not really the place for general questions that are not relating to CM9, but you need to ODIN back to EC05 in order to flash to EL30 modem, and modems are just modems, so it will not impact root as long as you are just flashing the modem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] juliocmorales93:
You can do a strait update, that's what I did from alpha 1 to 2. The only special thing you had to do was reflash gapps but that got fixed in alpha 2. The new gapps has picasa sync fixed so that would be a good thing to do if you use it. Either way make a nandroid backup before the update in case you find bugs, my touch screen has stopped working for certain games like angry birds and tetris so I'm going to do a clean install and that will probably fix it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimitz87:
