Bump.... Matt , Wink anyone else, can I clear cache/dalvik in CWM on my stock ROM with no problems? I'm trying to get my Nandroid under 1g? Something doesn't seem right it being 1.7gb?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] snipe2nite:
Update: After looking in the CWM backup the file sizes are.

.android_secure.vfat.tar 885mb

data.ext4.tar 322mb

system.ext4.tar 462mb

Any ideas what I can do to get the Nandroid file size smaller?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Slavestate:
You've got 800+ mb of apps and data installed on the internal SD. The .android_secure file is well, a backup of the entire .android_secure folder. When you go to Manage Apps and tell the phone to "move to SD card" (some apps just install there on their own) this is where they go.

My backups are about the same size as yours but I've got like 102 apps installed, and quite a few are 20+ mb games.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] johnf440:
Mine generally run 1.2 gb. 150 apps installed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Edgarhighman:
My first backup was 730mb my latest backup is 1.58gb eel

Cwm finally put my backup on the external_SD instead of the internal USB sd
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] snipe2nite:
I did move some games to the SD card but then I factory reset I did tick "format USB storage" before I rooted it then flashed Entroys kernel. I only have like 20 apps installed now. So I guess there are apps stored in some old folder I have searched all over for the folder or folders can't find them anywhere..... Any help where to look?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fusion777:
That much data with that few apps suggest maybe you have some video or music files getting lumped in there. Hard to say for sure, but I agree 1.7 seems like way too much. Try installing TiBu and back up your apps, then take a look and see how big the backups are. This might provide some more granular clues. I highly suggest the TiBu pro batch feature... Save u a lot of time in general

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spy-Tec:
Hello,

i'm unable to get an connection over ssh to my device (sshd on SGS2), over wifi.

I had this problem with 2.3.[2-6], and now with 4.0.3 (stock roms, rooted gt-i9100).

I tested sshdroid, quicksshd, and dropbear ssh server; it's all the same.

If i started the server on port 22, or a higher one, i'm able to connect

phone->phone (via localhost) (result ok)

phone -> phone (via wifi ip) (result ok)

pc -> phone (via vpn ip) (result ok)

pc -> phone (via gsm ip) (result ok)

[*]pc -> phone (via wifi ip) (no response)

So, what could hapens, if dropbear starts correctly, all connections could be initiate, but only a connection over the wifi device (wlan0) is impossible?

Any idea?

I looked at the iptables ruleset on the phone, all rules are on state ACCEPT,

i looked at the routing table on the phone, all routes are correct,

i tested the wifi connection with static parameters, but nothing helps,

so is anybody out there who can help me to solve my problem and get dropbear over wifi working?

thanks in advanced

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
Hi all,

I wonder if anybody has managed to get cracked screen replaced under warranty as its supposed to be this all singing all dancing wonderfully strong glass.

I have never managed to crack a screen before and I now have a hairline fracture across the top.

Surely they overegging their products if there are all these cracked screens.

Also has anybody seen these screens for the wonderful £60 mentioned in the repairing tutorial they all seem to be nearer £130 now.

£130 will be the price of a s/h SG2 when the SG3 comes out prob. I might just wait a bit.

Thanks

Dred.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skimminstones:
how many cracked screens are there :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
"They" are overegging nothing. Gorilla glass is excellent - look at all the smashed iphone screens around.

However, it's not indestructable. It's marketed as "scratch resistant" - not scratch proof and not crack proof. Enough pressure on the screen - any screen -and it will crack, as you have discovered. As indeed did I, but expected nothing else after a tram ran over my old SGS2...

I got a replacement via my insurance. Didn't bother checking to see if it was covered by warranty, because in my case I didn't have a leg to stand on.

Can't see anyone replacing a broken screen unde warranty, but different suppliers=different rules.

FWIW, my PMP (Cowon S9) with Gorilla glass has add umpteen drops and all other sorts of no-nos - sand, keys, you name it. Three years on, not a mark on it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
Gorilla glass is never advertised as crack proof, its scratch resistance.

Gorilla glass 2 is thinner but same strength.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
There must be quite a few judging by tutorials and replacement glasses and whole lcds on ebay. There is a whole thread on Droids and Gorilla glass cracks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
Yeah but my desire got dropped and just in general use nothing happened and nor did any of my other phones.

This sg2 gets dropped and its toast. I have had an XDA1 which has faired better than this.

I don't expect indestructable, I wasn't blending it :)

They advertise it as tough glass, which I think it isn't particularly. My screen is scratched, and I make sure no keys or coins etc.. go in the same pocket.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Yeah, right..... 20 million sold, therefore ebay and some threads=loads cracked.

Don't slag off the glass - you cracked your phone, live with it. You're not the first and you won't be the last. £130 is a bargain:p.... over £230 where I live

Out of curiosity, how did you crack it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
The factors of height, landing surface and angle the phone make contact with the landing surface are very important on whether your phone's screen survives a drop. The least important factor is the material the screen is made from.

You will hear stories of the same brand of phone being dropped from a couple of centimetres to a couple of metres onto sufaces from carpet to concrete. Plenty have survived what would normally be considered a dead cert to smash the screen and didn't.

It is tough glass, but remember that it is glass and glass breaks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
Thank you for your kind help. I have no choice but to replace it. I wanted to gauge the extent of this cracking whilst minor droppage occurs.

I have friends taking the p1ss because I have managed to break "really strong gorilla glass".

I was getting my son out of the car and he pulled on the headphones and it dropped from waist height and has a hairline crack on the glass.

The extent of the problems looked fairly large after bothering to google for it. I know I shouldn't feed the troll but what research have you done in to it. I expect none. Apart from yours haven't broken - wow you must be a scientist.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
This is why I am asking really. If you blow on it and it breaks then I want to know from a warranty perspective. The material on the SG2 might be particularly brittle or on a certain batch.

Thanks for the replies all
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Doctor, actually, but I also lecture in Physiology and some Biochem - scientific enough? Or would you prefer my A level in Physics? Both disqualify me from glass stress mechanisms....

Your sarcasm, hilarious as it is, is sadly pointless. And as I stated clearly, I did smash the screen on a previous device.

As fred_up states, there are many factors to account for when you drop your phone. My brother dropped his SGS1 from about 15 cm height. But it landed on the corner of a kerbstone, so it cracked bigtime. I've dropped mine flat onto gravel from about 2m up - screen was spotless, some chips on the "chrome".

Horses for courses. You were unlucky. Tried your insurance?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
Hairline fracture underneath the surface is how I would describe it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
Too true I suppose. Just that if someone advertises something then one has a right to be annoyed. I would be far less annoyed if it had a glass screen on it and not a "corning gorilla glass" screen.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dredwerker:
I was only pointing out the non-scientific nature of both of our methods - Doc :)

Anyway - the bleedin excess would be more than its worth.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The-Hulk:
Lets just say you were unluckly that your screen cracked, as i and many people have been luckly, but for your warranty covering a cracked screen you can only but ask. I personaly think that it wont be covered, as the idea is to cover faults by samsung not your bad luck.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferret141:
I couldn't help notice yor argument started to delve into science.

Glass is a brittle material and so it can take many fatal blows without showing any signs of damage. But one day a minor impact which would usually have no effect on a brand new piece will be the straw the broke the camel's back. This is because the fatal blows which it suffered previously will have left considerable damage only visible on a microscopic level. This explains why one guy can have his phone fall down the stairs many times and survive but have the screen break because "he blew on it" as Dredwaker put it.

Laboratory tests and can ensure that manufacturing is consistent but real-life will throw in many unexpected variables and odds.

Mech. Engineering student, I know some stuff but not everything
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirbeksm:
AFAIK, the warranty does not cover physical damages to the phone.

No manufacturer services a device with physical damages on warranty terms, unless resistance to physical stress is in product requirements.

Fractures have tendency to propagate on glass. Any stress, including usual usage in this case, touching, vibration, etc. will propagate it further.

I remember cracking my LCD screen on laptop. At first it was barely a point, I did not touch the screen or apply any pressure, but only from opening-closing the lid+vibration, in a few days almost the whole screen was black.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headshrinker139:
Are we talking about the Corning glass itself or the lcd screen beneath it? Just asking coz I broke the lcd in my old sgs1 because I intentionally slammed it so many times against solid wood.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headshrinker139:

Please help.Explain me as if i were an 8 year old. :confused: :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] Android311:
Clock work mod can't be flashed by Rom manager unless your phone is rooted, root your phone first then flash clock work mod. If you do have recovery flashed on your phone you don't need to be rooted to flash a new Rom.

If you don't understand that abouve first you need to read on how to root your phone, once you have all your info you need and your phone is rooted you will need clock work mod a.k.a recovery. Once your phone is rooted and you have clock work mod flashed the FIRST step you need to do is make a back up. To me it dosent sound like you have clock work mod on your phone, you probaly have Rom manager app which is useless without root, you can't root through cwm. It's just root then cwm. If you use a app that roots your phone and dosent work then you probaly have a locked bootloader, google search on how to root galaxy ace or search here, I don't have a galaxy ace but a lot of members here do so I assume its pretty easy to get it rooted :)
