Partioning

First off, I can't thank Linkisaboss77 and KrisM22 enough for everything they have done here!!!!!! The new recovery works like a charm. And about partitioning, the rom in post #10 and the kernal it installs with it IS compatible with Ext4 partition. Searching around, I found an app the was designed specifically for cyanogenmod 7, and it used ext4. Just followed the links in post #407 from Linkisaboss77, read them carefully, and everything went perfect for me. I can now put more than just a couple apps on it before its telling me "internal memory low". Now with my Ext4 partition that I made 2GB and the Link2SD app, I put all the apps I download on the partition, and keep all the actual internal memory, which is SO needed with the Summit and I'm sure ANY phone with small internal memory. So far, everything is working GREAT! Thanks again guys!!:good::D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Linkisaboss77:
Awesome glad you got it figured out!:D Thanks for doing the research I will be sure to recommend ext 4 for this phone in the future if they have cyanogenmod 7!

Getting ADB driver for Win XP

Noob here. Attempting to root Prism. After searching the entire forum I see that there were other XP users who were unable to get a suitable ADB driver (Post#10 / Step 3) for Win XP.. Unfortunately my Win 7 machine died last month and I am forced to use my ancient XP laptop until I can afford an upgrade. Not having the proper driver makes it impossible to load Clockwork Mod. Is there a workaround for this problem? Short of me begging a friend to use their Win 7 machine?

TY

Tom
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisM22:
I am totally confused! Just what do you use ext4 for? Do you create an ext4 partition on your SD card and it uses it all by itself? :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrenchman76:
Unfortunately I think your going to have to beg your friend. I could not get Huawei drivers to work on XP and had to use Win7. Sorry

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

NO, the Link2SD app (and I'm sure others) uses it as extended internal memory. And the reason you make it an ext4 partition is because it can transfer the data faster than ext2 and WAY faster than the standard FAT32. So basically you don't get as much lag out of your apps that are on that partition.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Linkisaboss77:
Have you tried the huawei driver link I found? Also is the version of xp on your laptop 32 bit or 64 bit? I am curious because I was able to get a suitable driver on an ancient asus netbook with windows xp 32 bit and have rooted 2 summits from there...so I can't figure out why others are having trouble. In any case I may have found a direct driver download but I need to test it first. So if you can wait I could probably have it tested by the end of the weekend. But give the huawei software a go first just to see if it works on your computer or not at least:) After it has installed, open up device manager and plug in your phone in fastboot mode to see it it recognizes it correctly or not.

Edit: Here's the link to the drivers I found if anybody would like to try them: http://www.dc-unlocker.com/test/Pulse_Drivers_xp_w7_w764.zip

And to answer your question, yes you create an ext4 partition on the sd card for apps. Basically once you have this you can get an app (an example being Link2SD) that moves the entirety of an app to the ext4 partition of the sd card. However the Android operating system still thinks it is on the system memory. Which is unlike native apps2sd that keeps a good chunk of the app on internal memory. Long story short its a workaround that allows you to install as many apps as you'd like on a phone with a small internal memory:) Which is very useful for these two phones. I should mention that it requires root but since this is a rooting thread it shouldn't be a problem:D That is probably not the best explanation but hopefully you'll get the gist of it!:confused:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Linkisaboss77:
Possibly, what were you having trouble with before?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tm0928:
Everything seems to be working up to snuff! Only hiccup is when I click on the CyanogenMod settings I get a "stopped unexpectedly" error. Not sure if I even need to do anything with it but I can't even see what options I have.

On a different note, is there a way I can access the entire internal storage on the phone via a USB connection? With the SD card removed I do not get the USB storage option. I am looking to run some data recovery software on said storage.

TY; Tom
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Linkisaboss77:
Oh that's probably because you flashed the audio and led fixes, those were intended for an older release haha. It won't hurt anything but if you want to get it to work you'll have to flash the rom and gapps again, without flashing the two fixes.

As for your other question I don't know off the top of my head:confused:

update file broken

Hi,

I tried all this and it didn't work. Then I spent a couple hours with the rootandroid team (a paid service) and he couldnt get my phone to root either. He told me that something in this update file is corrupt and not working!

Is there anyone who can check the update file and fix it? That's what he suggested I do, is ask u to do this, since he couldn't root my phone and I got a refund.

Any help appreciated! I need to root my phone for sure!

Thanks!

Hey guys, I've had my U8651t for a while now and the software has been great! My problem is with the volume, the output for the headphones is not that loud and I know this can be due to high impedance headphones but the problem is also when using the phone as a line output to an amplifier. Its easily 10db low compared to other sources.

I've tried clearing everything on the phone and starting fresh and no change in the output, also re-installed the audio patch.

Ohhh ****, I just re-read the first page and its says for the 4th release I wasn't supposed to install the audio and LED patches!! Uhh'o, what do I do guys?? Damn I wish the guide was cleaned up as of the 4th release!

Is there a way I can start fresh with out the LED and audio patches?? but still using cyanogenmod.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisM22:
Dunno - I would think going to post 10 and starting from the beginning. Yes? No?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eric93se:
Well the first two main steps should remain unchanged, rooting the factory rom and the recovery console. So I tried re-installing CM7#4 and only the gaps patch, but the audio level appears to remain unchanged.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisM22:
I trust that you cleared data, cache, dalvic, and system, before re-flashing CM7.2
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eric93se:
Yes, and so far the volume condition is the same. Don't get me wrong, I can hear music and videos fine, and ringer volume is fine. But the volume through the headphones and line out is limited, nothing distorts, so that's good. I think using it as a line-out is the biggest issue, I have to turn my amplifier all the way up to get fairly loud music going, but it should be capable of much more. There has to be some command I can give the phone to list the volume % its set to or something?

Too bad there are no updated ROM's for this phone!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisM22:
Okay. I happen to be running a very new install of 7 64 Pro (2 days old), - no cell phone has ever touched it.

I put my old Prism into fastboot mode and plugged it, and after about 15 seconds Win update had installed the

wrong

driver and called it Android Phone / USB Modem Phone ADB Port.

The instructions say do

not

have Win update active for updating drivers - That is correct -

my bad

(corrected above) - so I unplugged my RJ45 cable, and clicked on that device and uninstalled it and removed the drivers.

I then unplugged the prism and paused and plugged it back in again and it Plug-and-Pray'ed it to a Other Devices / Android (not working).

Then I pointed update driver (in Dev Mgr, in that device) at the 764 driver folder and voila, ADB Interface / Android Sooner Single ADB Interface .

So I am wondering what you are doing wrong... This is a 2 year old Lenovo V570 Laptop - nothing special - USB2 ports.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bob Sagget:
Btw is the driver in the form of a file right?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisM22:
You d/l a xp Win7 Win764 zip file. EXPAND THAT and you get 3 folders. One is the appropriate one. point to that. Within that, one of the files is the driver. Do not concern yourself which one. Win will figure it out. Point at the FOLDER.

Okay, I get that you're a bit of a noob as far as drivers go - Thats okay, I was there once. Expand that zip file for Win7_64.

For

you

only:

1)

Unplug your RJ45

(internet cable) (looks like a wide version of a RJ11 phone handset plug)

2) put your phone in fastboot and plug it to your computer.

3) in Device Mgr, right click on the Android device, choose uninstall, check box for "delete driver software for this device", click ok.

4) unplug your phone and pause 10 secs.

5) plug your phone back in and after a few secs it will say (in Device Mgr, that device: "The drivers for this device are not installed code 28"

IF YOUR COMPUTER DOES FIND A DRIVER EITHER YOU ARE STILL CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET OR IT IS GETTING THE DRIVER FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE. STOP HERE.

DO NOT CONNECT TO THE INTERNET.

Try repeating 2,3,4 a few times to see if you can get rid of all copies of the bad driver.

6) click on that device in Device Mgr, choose properties, choose driver tab, choose update driver, choose "Browse my computer for driver software", browse to E:\a temp\Pulse_Drivers_xp_w7_w764\Pulse_2.1_Win7_x64_Driver (there is a space inserted by XDA forums for the post) or wherever that

folder

is on your computer (

the expanded

folder

from the ZIP, not the ZIP itself

) , check include subfolders, click next. In a few seconds it will install your driver. Check that it's the sooner driver.

7)

then and only then plug your RJ45 cable back into your computer.

It appears that when you built your Win7 you chose "allow Win to automatically choose the best driver for your hardware" (or something like that) I did that, too. You cannot shut that off (unless you know how to play with Services.). MS's infinite wisdom. Unplug the RJ45 during the operation and then plug it back in AFTER you have the correct driver in there.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bob Sagget:
I got rid of all the bad copies of the driver and now I'm at the point where it says "The drivers for this device are not installed code 28".
