Only issue (and this is a hunch and will need to verify...) they symlinked them to the partition. Shouldn't be hard to modify, unless they built it into each apk. Again won't be hard to modify just take a bunch of time to do each. I'll let you guys know what I find when I get time to check.

roms for my HTC desire was like this. the rom zip had a system and data folder and would install to both partitions.

djmatt604, hows the T-mobile radio working for you in your area?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jamison904:
Well actually this one (Infamous) has a system partition, preloaded partition, as well as a data partition. Well all have a system and a data. Just some developers use data and others do not. Now as for the preloaded, the only device I have seen that has a completely separate like this is the S2. So it is new to all of us including the developers here.

Now here is another question for you guys. Did everyone have everything installed on 1.1-1.2? I modified the frameworks so I could remove the tetheringprovision.apk to truly unrestrict tethering. This was in the preloaded... so when I removed it I could of broke the entire partition. Or at least the install of these apps. There was some other stuff I need to look at. Might have all the answer in there... sorry thinking out loud.

I flashed 1.0. and I had the hang on boot, rebooted and cleared cache with tdj scripts and it booted fine. After that I have had no problems flashing any of the JB roms. Yours, ptmr3's, the stock deodexed, and mine.

Thanks for your hard work guys!

I found going backd to stock 4.1.2 via odin then rerooting fixes all these issues (no radio and reboot freeze). I flashed the latest rom after that and all worked fine. I'll try to find the website with instructions. Worked great.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Octane70:
This is also same as my HTC desire, when the system got to big for apps and sd-ext partition was created on the sd card and system apps were installed there and were symlinked to the system/ app folder, unfortunately this made the rom slower do to the read and right speeds of the sdcard. To bad we couldnt repartion the blocks on the phone and combine the system and pre-load partitions

When I had first tried v1.0 with the v1.2 patch, everything seemed to have installed but I had FC issues. On the newest ROM you released that didn't need any patches, everything installed correctly and I've had no issues since installing it almost 2 days ago. Still haven't tested tethering yet, but I can do so later if you want.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gamesoul Master:
I'd tell you how well it's working with the new kernel, except now I can't get past the kernel boot animation (the classic issue reported by people). No amount of cache wipes or reinstallations are helping, whether I include the kernel or not.

I did manage to get it to boot once, and after it finished "optimizing" all the apps, I got constant FC's for some kind of logging service? I can't remember exactly what it was called, but I clicked OK a couple dozen times (it kept immediately popping back up before I could even blink) before I gave up and rebooted. Behind it I could faintly see an FC for the Clock too. And ever since, I haven't gotten past the initial boot again... lol.

Once I get past it, I'll continue testing things out :)

Edit: I decided to back up my Data just in case. Backup immediately "completed successfully", saying it had backed up 0 MB of data at 1282 MB/s (the amount of data there). Very odd. So I checked the System area, and all I found was a bin folder that is empty. So the ROM isn't even flashing as far as I can tell. I did nothing with my recovery, so I have no idea what is suddenly causing this problem. Gonna see if I can flash anything else.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jdom58:
jamison, after trying your ROM out yesterday I ran into the system storage space problem also re-installing my apps. I also tried ptmr3 JMT JB 1.1 Rom and now Rushing's Jellybeast. The problem seems to happens on all three ROMs and I found this morning that wiping the cache/dalvik cache after flashing the ROM may what's causing it although I don't know enough to figure out why. You can reboot the ROM as many times as you want after flashing it and all will good but once you go into recovery and wipe the cache/dalvik cache the problem arises. Here are some comments going up in rushings thread: (BTW, by posting these comments is by no means a disrespect to anybody, just trying to help to get to the bottom of this because it's happening on all versions of this ROM)

Quote:

by mobiusheron

On the down side, looks like there's something off or inconsistent with the external_sd or, maybe you were wanting it to appear internal so apps automatically move to external_sd? Whatever the case, internal_sd shows up twice in TWRP 2.5.0.0 while external_sd is non-existent. Was able to access it via /sdcard (where internal_sd is normally linked). Looked for /mnt/sdcard0 and /mnt/sdcard1 but couldn't find them. They're now /storage/sdcard0 and /storage/extSdCard? For me, this resulted in an out of memory condition on installing applications about three-four times faster than usual. /mnt/asec and /mnt/obb both show up as having 349MB of 349MB available (using 0MB).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jamison904:
Question man, the beta kernel I used the defconfig that came with the source. It did built the governors but of course had radio issues. I didn't add the governors to it. Maybe a deeper issue? Or is that an easier work around (or the proper way of adding them? Still learning as I go.) I know that you have to add them to the kconfig and the make file as well as the cpufreq.h...

And thanks for the insight!

Didn't happen for me. Bad download? Not sure b it t heres.my screen shot after wiping dalvic cach in twrp 2.5

No I don't think the download was the problem since it has happened on three different ROMs and is also being reported by others. Go into recovery and wipe both the cache and the dalvik cache and see if it happens.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gamesoul Master:
So I finally remembered last night that I had backed up the ROM after getting it set up and such. Did a full restore and everything was fine. Not sure what caused the problem, but I'm just happy my phone is working again... lol. Not sure if it's worth noting, but when I made the backup (and restored it), I had included the Preload folder (and I'm using TWRP 2.5.0.0).

Maybe not. It was just a guess. I did wipe cache and dalvic. Im going to pay attention to this each time I flash in the future.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bigtom624:
I had the same system storage problem, and it happened to me when I wiped davlik/cache after flashing the rom. I reflashed it and didn't wipe afterwards and it fixed it for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jdom58:
Oh sorry, didn't realize that was for me, I'm using TWRP 2.5 also.

Edit: Also by wiping the cache and dalvik after flashing the rom will also cause the re-boot to hang and will require a power off a couple of times to get it to boot up completely. It will then require you to sign in to your google account again. It will keep all of your setting intact though.

When Wiping cache the Rom didn't boot or no preload apps .

When wiping caches Radio didn't worked

Then a reflashed everything in one step by creating a qeue in TWRP 2.4.4 and didn't wipe and everything ran wonderful.

So I am pretty confident that's the problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Before

Booted into TWRP Recovery 2.4.4 and performed a wipe cache\dalvik

After

Note: When I originally flashed the ROM, I did not wipe cache\dalvik afterwards (I never do).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Octane70:
I really don thinks it the recovery, i had the same issues with the atat leak a month back and i was on an earlier version of twrp. i think it has to do with pre-load folder and symlinks.

Let sit for about ten minutes, reboot recovery, installed.kernel, wiped.cachce and dalvic. Stuck at boot again. Hold power button down till phone reboots. All is working. Total space 1.97
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gamesoul Master:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that 03102013 is basically the full v1.3 ROM. I keep seeing people talking about flashing the patch and all that, but I thought Jamison even said that at the time that the updated fixes were included in that ROM. Certainly I've been running it as is without any issues (except the toggles won't change even through the included app).

And it must be the symlinks being deleted, because I saw a folder by that name in the Preload, and I can't imagine why else a cache wipe would cause a boot lock that was solved merely by restoring the Preload folder. Though I'm no expert on the matter, the situation is very certainly created by a cache wipe doing something to the Preload. But since we know that, we can at least work around it quite easily until they get a chance to fix it :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pipergca:
I was running smooth for 24 hours or so, phone just froze so I had to reboot, locked up on boot screen. That's without wiping anything, just a normal reboot. Factory reset...still boot lock. I had to restore back-up.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Octane70:
I dont think it is neccesary if you can slim the rom down enough and fit the system apps back in the system folder that are needed there and the rest to data. Though i do see yours is like 100mb smaller
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jahrule:
