[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bimbim18:
I recently flashed to slim ics 2.8 and love it. Except the dialer , which sucks. Then today I went to text someone and realized they were no longer on my contact list. Then I realize a lot of people are missing. thankfully I exported my list before the flag. No biggie just import it back. After hoursi can't find an import option in the new slim Ics dialer. Should I look for another dialer ?

Does slim ics have a import contact option?

Should I find a better dialer?

any recommendations at ?

I'll keep that in mind for the future but it doesn't help me at the moment. :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Dunno slim specifically, but the import/export option I've found in ics wasn't in the dialer app. its in "people" app.

Just open it up and hit menu:

Hope that helps, cause like i said, never ran slim.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bimbim18:
well, it was there alright. I now have duplicates for everyone, but those missing are still missing. I don't understand why they are missing. ...... Any easy way to clear the dupes?

I don't know anything about this people app, is this what the contact list is based on in ics?

Hi all, I am new to android but have tried to do a CM7 boot by writing the CM7 Final image to my sd card using WinDisk. It states that it will corrupt the physical device but I proceed with the writing of image. After doing so, I boot my NT and it works perfectly in CM7. However, when I remove the SD card from my NT and wanted to transfer files over to my SD card, I realised the storage size is reduced to 190MB.

Is there a way to free up the storage size but my NT can still boot CM7 off the SD card?

I am using a 16gb class 4 microsd card and will like to see if there's any ways to solve the problem.

Thank you.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hhhshadydave:
Bumping this I have the same problem. I know you can partion it with a main active partion, but is there away to do it without formatting the SD card? Mine also has 190mb
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CRE:
I'm not sure what CM7's capable of using but you *can* use GParted to expand existing partitions or create partitions in the unallocated part of the card without affecting the system partition. I'm not sure that expanding the system partition would be of much use as I don't think you'll find many apps that can access it so creating another volume/partition is the best bet. Can't help with how to mount it so it's usable by all of your apps...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ExhumedWolf:
Bumped as well, can't find the answer anywhere else.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Use this tool here to repartition your SD card:

http://www.partitionwizard.com/download.html

It's very easy to use. You can just delete the partitions of space that aren't being used so that they become unallocated space. Then you're free to merge with another partition or create another.

Let me know if you have any questions.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CRE:
Just a note to anyone who needs Ext* or exFAT support, Partition Wizard only supports FAT(like FAT16, FAT32) and NTFS filesystems.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ivantohxm89:
I wanted to create a new partition on the unallocated space in partition wizard but it requires me to change one partition to logical first.

I am kinda lost as I wasn't sure which method is best to obtain.

I will be generally pleased if anyone can provide me with instruction/screenshot in doing so.

Your help is largely appreciated.

Thanks
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
I do believe you can only have 4 primary partitions on a hard disk.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nedomacho:
Bumping this.

I only get 1.3Gb of storage with CNMod on a 32Gb card (original B&N stuff intact). Tried using ROM Manager to repartition the card and load a previously backed up CNMod image with clockwork recovery -- same result. Pretty frustrating...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TheBigDogz:
Use EaseUS.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] slgooding:
The problem is windows...

I don't think this is addressing the main issue. You have to understand how Windows is reading the sd card, and how the CM7 boot disk is setup. There are 4 partitions on the CM7 boot disk. The first is the actual boot information. This is a vfat formatted partition that is <200MB. The next 2 partitions are system related for the OS. The 4th and last partition is the one that is used as the actual SDCARD in CM7.

The problem is that Windows can ONLY mount the first partition on a removable device. I have not been able to find a method to mount the 4th partition (in windows), which is the resized data partition for the bootable disk.

I would suggest installing a Virtual Box version of Ubuntu and mounting the SD card from there and transferring files through Ubuntu.

Yes, you can mount the SD card when attaching the Nook via USB, but the difference in transfer speed is a joke. I get 2.5MB usb, vs 10MB with a card reader.

I hope this helps.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rvr350:
Bump... I am hoping to get the rest of the storage space on my SD card.

On another note, assuming running CM7 on SD card, there a thread that walk us thru to free the NT's internal memory from the 1gb limit from the B&N?

Thanks
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
All you have to do is merge the unallocated space that was left on your SD with the last partition the CM7 image created.

This is the thread walking you through repartitioning the internal memory:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rvr350:
As i'm using windows, it only can see the first partition on SD card, someone mentions virtual box with ubuntu? Is there other method out there? Right now, there are actually 5 partitions on your SD card:

1st partition) capacity 190mb, FAT 32, primary, active

2nd partition) capacity 763 mb, Ext3, primary, none

3rd partition) capacity 1.4 gb, ext 3, primary, none

4th partition) capacity 1.3 gb, fat32, primary, none

5th partition) capacity 11.1 gb, unallocated, logical, none

As you can see, it is from a 16gb SD card, I'm sure the last 2 partitions are what I need to merge and make it visible to windows. Any suggestions?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] drymer:
Use easeus partition manager.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Just to confirm, drymer is correct. You can use either software EASEUS or Partition Wizard on your Windows operating system to combine your 4th and 5th partition.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bocaccio:
Can I use the partition tools if im on alberts abd rom w stock 1.4.0? or i have to be on cm7?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rvr350:
Hmm, let me keep trying. Easeus won't let me combine logical and primary partition, i.e. the 5th and the 4th partition. Is there another method out there?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Hmmm, it should just let you extend the 4th partition with all of the unallocated space directly after it. Just by choosing the 4th partition, select resize, and choose how much you want to extend it by.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rvr350:
I got the sd card to read up to 12 gb now (out of 16 gb) in root explorer, but is there a way for it to show up under windows?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Unfortunately, I was only ever able to get the first partition to mount on Windows.

I thought I had the solution by trying to apply different drivers to my SD card reader to allow the card to become a Local Disk, but I wasn't able to get it to work.

If anyone has found a solution to mount multiple SD card partitions on Windows (other than using a virtual OS), let me know.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rvr350:
I found on another thread about installing virtual box of ubuntu on windows. Its a bit more work though... i can always tether to put stuff on sd card via the nt.

But since i repartition the nt's internal storage space, i can get about 11 gb to use, so i think its fine for now.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] slgooding:
As I mentioned earlier, you cannot mount the last partitions in windows. That means you cannot write files to it.

If you are having trouble merging the partitions, you.need to format the partition before the unallocated space. There is a problem that prevents it from being merged.

Installing Ubuntu on virtualbox is easy. It shouldn't take more than 30 minutes.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jroseborough:
Thanks for the great information! I had formatted an 8gig microsd with the latest CM7 and using the info here I was able to "recover" about 5 gigs of space on the card usign Easeus Partition master. Thanks again!

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Oublieux:
Hi guys, just a quick question. I'm not particular about accessing the partition on Windows more than I am with the CM7 ROM. I merged the 4th and 5th partitions using Minitool Partition but when I look at the storage information under settings I get the SD Card as having 27 GB (I think this is the merge) while the internal storage is set as 1.31 GB. Is this normal? Because I thought this would increase the internal storage meant for installing applications.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TheBigDogz:
Yes, that's normal. I don't think the 1.31 GB can be changed.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Oublieux:
Thank you. Good to have a confirmation on this :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
It is true that this is normal, but it is possible to change the 1.40GB internal storage partition. This partition is formatted as ext4 and Windows will not recognize it. However, using GParted in Ubuntu or I think the Live CD as well allow you the resize this partition to give you more internal storage in CM7 SD version.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TheBigDogz:
Can EaseUS be used to do that?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Unfortunately, I don't believe EaseUS on Windows supports modifying an ext4 partition. You could check to make sure though.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] irfanbagus:
this is ext4 module binary for linux kernel 2.6.35.7 (DXLB1 stock firmware). i build to test my tools (compiler, etc.) and ability to load kernel module from stock kernel. if anyone needed, feels free to take it. working with loop device (not testing yet with real partition but it should be working) with following issue :

1. stock kernel not support "huge_file" feature witch is enable by default by mkfs.ext4. make sure to disable it

2. auto detect filesystem in mount command not working because wrong auto detect order. use"-t ext4" param

3. file size is big. not sure fit in initramfs (not investigate yet)

i installed lightspeed and flex rom both.

at present i more like flex rom because i feel maybe it is more stable and more quick(after start, a little quicker)

both have the following problems:

1.both can't find hidden ssid wifi. i have to show ssid.and i feel the conncetion with wifi is weeker than android 3.2 because away from the same distance, the signal is weaker.

2.in both's email, if you want to show combined view, the email app stops.

3.both can't use facebook and twitter app although i can login in on brower. flex rom can use youtube app and till i un-install lightspeed, it can't.

4.in somes app, such as nfs etc, the backward arrow response slowly, needing waiting the app completes its own process and then you can quit by backward arrow.this arrow response more quick in android
[Acer Iconia A500] dynospectrum:
Add Network in Wifi settings to connect to network not broadcasting SSID.
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
Facebook app from market works just fine on flex roms, I think you need to learn how to clean tablet.

You got to know flashing roms can give corrupted data.

Leftovers from previous rom.

Result conflicts and bad running rom.

I didn't try twitter because I hate it.

I could care less if someone just wiped his a$$ and want to twitter about it.
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
Actually the problem is a little deeper than that for me. But good advice still.

I can get my Iconia to connect to a hidden network on the first attempt. What I mean by first attempt is that about the only time I can connect is immediately after setting my wifi to not broadcast ssid, then adding the network as you've shown. It connects the first time just fine. But once I roam out of range and come back there is a less than 50/50 chance that my tab will "find" my network again. I just gave up after leaving the house a few times. I don't really care if my ssid is seen anyway. My password's a good, meaningless string of numbers and letters. I doubt that even the neighbors kid can bust through that one...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bryannh:
hello, new user here. just got my maxx in today and love it!

ive been looking online on how to root it on my mac, seems easy enough.

however, went i go to type in "sh run.sh" to run the root exploit, it says:

[*] Waiting for device...

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

then it does nothing and just sits there.

am i missing something? USB debugging is on, it is on Charge Only. i cannot figure out if im missing a step here...

also, this is using the MotoFail exploit, if that helps at all.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bryannh:
so i think it might have to do with USB debugging NOT working. which is odd, phone is stock out of the box right now, why wouldnt it work??
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Oberbufdi:
Strange... Have you tried a normal command via adb like "adb get-serialno" if you get your serial number then debug mod is working.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bryannh:
i have not yet, good idea though. can you explain how id do this exactly? sorry im kind of a noob when it comes to adb. also, im pretty sure debugging isnt working.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mataraty:
Oke I dont own a MAC but am using Linux. I need to set the usb to pc mode to make rooting work with motofail. Maybe that's your case also?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Oberbufdi:
I don't own a mac but you just need to open Terminal and cd to the folder where you extracted motofail. ;)

1. Check connection by command

fastboot devices

It should return serial number

2. Run RUU 2.53.707.2

3. Navigate to windows temporary directory and search for rom.zip

4. Check twice that is 2.53.707.2 archive (you can unpack files and view hboot via notepad, you will see something like 1.33.2010 ENG S-OFF)

5. Copy rom.zip into folder with fastboot.exe (from Android SDK Tools), close RUU

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

So can I like remove the digitizer, and put the phone in an otter box and be ready to go? Or is the digitizer ABSOLUTELY mandatory for the phone to operate? Really don't feel like the hassle of buying the digitizer and installing it.Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
I am pretty sure the digitizer is necessary for the touch screen to work. From what i remember the digitizer is what registers that there is an electrical impulse on the screen so it can register it is being pressed. so i think no it wont work if you just take out the digitizer and try to use it.
