[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
I have a few general and a few specific questions regarding storage:

1. Why did Samsung create 2 directories for internal storage? It has regular internal storage and "SD" storage but both are really internal storage. Why not just make one big partition and SD storage is actually your removable SD card (this is how it was on the OG EV) Someone please explain this to me if you know the answer.

2. On CM9 rom how do you save apps and their data to a external SD card? I'm trying to install a Gameloft game but it's saying I don't have enough space available which I certainly do.

3. On TW based ICS roms how do you save apps w/ data on the actual external sd card? Possibly planning on trying out Rujelus' rom so I'd like to know before hand.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
The OG evo didnt have an emmc partition. It had internal storage dedicated to things like app storage, same as any other phone. You cant mount internal storage to your PC so combining these would be a waste of space.

You might be able to push game data from emmc to the sd card and they might still locate it but I have never tried as I never fill up my emmc, I just keep everything else on the sdcard. But worth a shot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
I don't quite get your reply but to make things easier for myself what is the best way to format the SDcard. I am talking about the internal SDcard not my actual removable micro SD card. I know there is an option in storage but I don't know what SD card its referring to.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
Just remove your external then hit the format option in storage. And if you move back to the fd16 kernel on cm9a3 you will be much happier with the way the storage is handled.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tumo85:
Hi guys

Just bought a seconhand Desire. The previous owner had wiped it all clean for me but I dont have marketplace! I have downloaded g apps and installed it from SD card and it installs. But when the phone boots up again there is still no marketplace! I have tried and tried.

Also tried adding and syncing account and it keeps saying unable to connect to server! I have tried everything I can as I am still a newb with this!

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
go to revolutionary.io and S-OFF the phone.

go to market and download 4EXT recovery control (I think there is free and paid version)

open the app, select the "touch" tab, and select a recovery (the latest recoveries are unavailable on non-paid version)

Then reboot into recovery (power off, hold volume down + power, wait for bootloader to flash green text (ignore it), press volume down to highlight recovery, press power) Once it boots into recovery you can either a) flash google apps b) flash a completely different ROM.

-------------------------------

a) If you don't want a custom ROM, just download gapps, place it on your sd-card (while in recovery, you can plug the phone into pc and select "toggle usb storage"), then go to "install from sd-card" and choose the .zip file you put on your sd-card. Once the process finishes you will have all google apps.

-------------------------------

b) If you would like to flash a custom ROM (I would, they're awesome), then backup your ROM (from backup & restore). Then go to wipe/format and select Wipe ALL partitions (except for sd-card)

Then download a ROM from the android development section, stick it on your sd-card and flash it (install zip from sd-card).

Some ROMs require a custom HBOOT partition before you flash a ROM, and you can get the from alpharev.nl (always make sure to check the md5 sums of the hboot, there is a tool on my troubleshooting guide which does this for you, otherwise you can brick your phone). Always change the hboot BEFORE flashing the ROM

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sainyam:
Sorry i went to sleep last night..

Okay..

since it displays waiting for device it might be due to android debugging mode not enabled..

try going to setting>application(or what so ever)>more options(some thing like that)>click android debugging..

and then use super one click..

Actually i have never tried upgrading my bootloader to v6 ..

So dont know much about its rooting..

you may try search the forum using "4.5.1-134_DFP root"

i wont be able to find as my net is not working well sorry..:(

[T-Mobile LG G2x] epicsquare:
I haven't seen this posted before, so here I go...

I'm not sure other people have this but whenever I get a picture message, the phone interprets it as a 10 seconds video message. The first five seconds are just blank white, and after that it shows the picture in an area of around 100x100 pixels at the top for the last 5 seconds. And this doesn't happen to all messages, but most of them(Even from the same sender). Really weird. Anyone have the same problem? Know of a fix?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jaywillsoul:
Which rom are you using? some dev's post fixes for things like that with the rom download files.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kookooktchoo:
This happens to me whenever someone using an iPhone sends me an MMS with multiple attachments. Is that what's going on with you too?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] epicsquare:
Exactly, but to me it happen even if its one message only.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] barqers:
I can confirm this issue. For me, MMS barely works at all without some workarounds. I believe it's because we're on Wind in Canada. The development is 100% geared towards the T-Mobile G2X, and there's gotta be some file in the phone somewhere that makes this happen on the Wind Network.

I've posted about this before, never found an answer. I dug around in the /system folders and files but nothing really peaked my interest as being the cause of the problem.

For now I've corrected this issue, as well as sending/receiving issue by doing the following:

Every time I receive an MMS, before I download this MMS, I navigate into system->More->Mobile Networks->APNs, then just tap the "Wind CA" APN, and without editing, back out. This will cut off your internet from working and allow the MMS to download properly. Then once that's done to get internet back up again you have to go back into the APNs and reset to defaults.

Pain in the butt if you ask me.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] avi.levi:
Hi,

I messed with my Xperia S a little bit and seemd to have bricked it.

Here is the history of what I did:

- flashed DooMLORD's kernel in order to have CWM recovery

- backed up my ROM

- flashed the free-xperia kernel for CM9

- changed my "build.prop" settings to L26i instead of LT26i

- flashed the CM9 ROM

Now nothing works. I am stuck in a boot loop.

Tried recovering with the free-xperia CWM recovery, but it tells me that it cannot mount /system.

Tried to re-flash DooMLORD's kernel, but it is "mad" at me for changing the model to "L26i".

I cannot access my /system/

I cannot put the phone in fastboot mode.

I am lost. I need help!

Thank you

In theory you could port qemu or something and run it in that. But that would be so slow a turtle would think of itself as fast if it saw it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
If you are talking about x86 exe files, no its an entirely different processor architecture and would never emulate smoothly on ARM.

If it was compiled as a windows executable, then no. Of course, you could probably port it if you have the source
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucaoldb:
As you've already been told, one .exe file compiled for x86 CPU would need both a CPU emulator and an environment emulation. Just to speak, I can tell you that running windows 3.1 is possible on my old debian based Nokia n900. That's why windows 3.1 was running on top of dos, while XP did not.

So I guess that a porting of dos for android could somehow allow you to run windows 3.1 at most, though it would be useless and very small.

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

Slow, not small.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
DosBox emulates an x86 CPU and other PC hardware which is why it can run DOS and DOS based versions of Windows. But emulation makes things a lot slower than if they were running native, hence the reason only 3.1 and 95 run instead of XP or Windows 7.

Hi all,

When I bought my Defy + I installed CM9 (Android 4.0.4),

CM9 switched off everyday, it had few bugs, because it's IMM76D I think..

So you flashed the recovery in fastboot ? Didn't do a ph98img and leave it on the card ? Otherwise no idea everyone had that happen with the leak , but it was fixed by performing a factory reset in bootloader. Sorry , out of ideas.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Did you unlock or install the modified hboot? I don't think the standard hboot will allow fastboot commands without unlocking it

Nope, i went from their modded hboot with the gb firmwire, how would i go about modding the ics one? :confused:
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
When you ran the ruu it replaced their hboot with the stock one. Look in the s-off thread for the juopunutbear hboot. It has the download for it and instructions. But be careful. Bad things can happen messing with hboot. I would recommend just unlocking again but it's up to you. If you do unlock I don't think there's a way for it to say locked again without turning s_on and running the s-off again
[HTC Rezound] Fergusonfox7:
Thanks, im pretty sure i got it, Download the controlbear from the s-off tool and get the hboot, but... can anyone tell me the command to run? its like fastboot flash jhboot.img or something..
[HTC Rezound] Fergusonfox7:
"fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip jb_hboot.zip

fastboot reboot"

Got it, thanks much for the help :)
[HTC Rezound] scotty1223:
you cannot use fastboot flash or fastboot boot with a stock,locked,hboot.

the download is an appropriate PH98IMG file. you can put on sd card,boot to hboot,say yes to update or:

put zip into folder with adb/fastboot

boot to fastboot

open cmd window

fastboot devices

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip <zipname>.zip

fastboot reboot-bootloader

verify the hboot changed

fastboot reboot

after you have the eng hboot,you can use fastboot flash to install the recovery if you want. you can also install the recovery exactly like above

to fastboot flash:

take

image

out of download,put inside folder with adb/fastboot utilities

boot to fastboot

open cmd window

fastboot devices

fastboot flash recovery <recoveryname>.img

fastboot reboot

note that the <zipname> and <recoveryname> must be exactly the same as what the image or zip inside your adb/fastboot folder is called.
