[Captivate Android Development] manolis:
place the kernel to it, it does not mount the internal memory http://www19.zippyshare.com/v/31185427/file.html
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
Hi, thank you very much for your feedback! You're right. The internal SD fat partition gets mounted as /emmc when the phone boots. I have not tried to disable it because it does not seem dangerous. The /data ext4 partition is written much more often than the /emmc fat partition, so assuming writes on the SD cause the problem, and that reads are safe, then we're probably safe... Just a theory...

Anyway, DerTeufel1980 recently added a compilation option to his kerel to disable the internal SD, but I have not tested it.

If you are willing to test it (you should know how to recover from bootloops), download this kernel:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/b648yx9pwrdlf1a/Devil3_1.0.0-Rc3_cappy_CFS_BLN_CMC_20120721-NOINTSD.zip

and download any official cappy CM9 ROM from get.cm (for example this http://get.cm/get/jenkins/4619/cm-9.0.0-RC2-captivatemtd.zip). Replace the boot.img file of in the CM9 zip with the one included in the Devil3 zip file.

Flash the Devil3 zip file and then, from CWM, go to Advanced->Reboot Recovery to use the recovery of the modified kernel. Then flash the modified CM9 ROM, flash gapps and reboot.

One of these 2 things may happen (or others I don't imagine):

1) With some luck the phone will boot ok. Then, check with a file manager whether /sdcard is there. If not, then go to Settings->Storage->Menu and uncheck Internal Storage. Reboot and that should do it. (it reverses internal/external storage)

2) At worst the phone will bootloop. In this case open the modified CM9 ROM, replace the /system/etc/vold.fstab with the one from my CM9 ROM and flash again.

Please report your experience with the modified kernel.

BTW, all the thanks to DerTeufel1980!
[Captivate Android Development] visionlogic:
Just wanted to say thanks once again to azunino for this, and to all others who have contributed. My cappy has been running great since install - smooth, fast, good battery life, good gps. I've started learning Tasker and the profiles/tasks I've installed run smoothly. Solid and reliable all around. Bravo!

Flashed CM10 nightly 0726 with devil1.0rc3 on my internal storage broken captivate, all things going well.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
Hi,

thanks for the news!

Did you flash CM10? or CM9? I ask because I have not tried CM10 yet. CM9 has been super stable and smooth.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
OP updated. CM9
[Captivate Android Development] cas0404:
Hi azunino,

thx a lot for the update, is this the stable version?
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
Yes, it's CM9 stable

/datadata Low Storage

hi azunino,

I'm having problems with the famous notification of Low Storage because of /datadata partition and i read that there is a fix for it call [Script]New "Low Storage" Notification fix and also an app called Datafix that install a Script and move whatever you want to /data partition, But i don't know if i can do this over your fix "CM9 with /data on the external SD" ????

thx
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
AFAIK it should work, because the script just moves/copies files regardless /data is in the internal or external sd (backup your current ROM from CWM before using the datadata fix script).

Anyway, a safer alternative you may try before:

- wipe some of your apps caches: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.infolife.cache

- move some large apps to the SD (Settings->Applications).

These two have solved the problem in the past, but note that I just use ~40 apps.
[Captivate Android Development] cas0404:
Hi Azunino,

I’m following the thread [ALPHA][ROM][4.1.1] CyanogenMod 10 and in the last release pawitp swap the /system and /data now it's like 2gb /system and 442mb /data so with this configuration are we safe from the EU bug? i mean /data partition is no longer on the internal SD card it's now on the internal NAND (512MB).

Am i right???

I’m using your rom and i love it!, but i'm looking the progress of jelly beam.

thx
[Captivate Android Development] visionlogic:
I use the Datafix app with azunino's modded CM9 without any problem. YMMV
[Captivate Android Development] mechanical tool:
Would it be possible to avoid the low space problem by just making the data partition bigger when initially setting up the sd card?
[Captivate Android Development] Fishmanzero:
Oh I made a mistake! That was CM9 from your post some pages before this.

It's really stable till now. My broken captivate can be used as usual now. Thanks very much!
[Captivate Android Development] swayjd:
Yes. Just make it big enough to fit your needs.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
I have not been following CM10 development, but it seems a nice solution to avoid the /datadata hack.

Considering /system is written only when installing a ROM (or modifying a file stored in /system), and assuming the writes are the cause of the EU bug, then this new partition layout may help prevent the EU bug.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
OP updated. CM9.1
[Captivate Android Development] mechanical tool:
Any chance of this getting updated with cm10? Otherwise I might try the vold.fstab method to install cm 10 on my external sd.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
It seems most people here consider that the EU bug it's part of the long forgotten past. At least it is not as widespread as in ICS times. Anyway, JB has been safe so this mod seems no longer necessary.

Several weeks ago I took a look at the cm10 sources to make a quick assessment of the effort required to make it work with /data on the external SD (and /system). The result: it's possible, but a bit difficult. The main problem is that the kernel does not use a gzipped cpio ramdisk image, but an embedded ramdisk. This means that AFAIK a simple patch for modifying a CM10 ROM is not possible because it is necessary to modify CM10 sources and recompile the whole thing, which is very time consuming. There is, however, a quick alternative. Devil kernel has a compile-time option for supporting devices with broken memories and thanks to DerTeufel1980 scripts, compiling Devil is a piece of cake. So, here are the recompiled kernels for JB only:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/d4bnuu8obu9kfgs/Devil3_1.7.4_Jelly_Helly_cappy_CFS_BLN_CMC_20121115.zip

https://www.dropbox.com/s/mkunl4o3mwbwv8j/Devil3_1.7.4_Jelly_Helly_cappy_CFS_BLN_VC_20121115.zip

I'm super busy so I haven't tested them, but they should work since the compile time option changes the way the kernel maps the internal SD into a device name, so in theory the ROM on top of the kernel should just use the new device name (in this case ext SD instead of the internal SD). Not sure if these are the right terms... but you get the idea. One (maybe desired) side effect of the kernels is that the internal SD should be invisible to Android (even if it fully works), but can be used again by flashing any regular kernel.

Please be careful because the kernels may cause bootloops. Besides double check you have a working download mode, heimdall/odin, drivers, a fully charged battery, a copy of the efs folder, and an up to date nandroid backup of your working ROM/apps just in case.

Good luck
[Captivate Android Development] mechanical tool:
Thank you for the kernels! I will give them a shot once I get some time to have my phone down, hopefully on the weekend.

I'll definitely report my findings.

And while there are many fewer cases of the EU bug in JB, there have been a few, and while it is more reasonable, I just can't bring myself to install it knowing that its a risk.
[Captivate Android Development] mechanical tool:
Well I tried two ways to to install this kernel and neither worked.

First I tried taking the CM10 zip and switching the kernel with the modified Devil kernel. It rebooted to the Devil kernel splash screen and didn't go any farther. Additionally, I couldn't get into recovery using the modified Devil kernel.

Next I installed CM10 on the internal SD and tried flashing the modified Devil kernel. This didn't work either, and recovery didn't work in this case either.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
oops.

This means that I do not fully understand the new partition scheme and the device names used in cm10. Could you please provide a logcat
[Captivate Android Development] mechanical tool:
I can try and get a logcat if I have time to try it again, but right now I have reinstalled the modified CM9.1. At which point would the logcat be best? when the system is just starting up?
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:

I've been having Wifi issues at home and at work. The signal disconnects and reconnects every 2-5 minutes. I used catlog to try to get some sense of what was going on and I typically see the behavior below(looking only at things which match wifi): fetchRssiAndLinkSpeedNative returns an RSSI value every 3 seconds -- then before every failure, the same process (415 here) spits out a different log message -- "getHotSpotEnabled: false" -- three times in a row and the connection gets reset.

If I turn on "Best Wifi Performance" I see a log message about setting wifi_pwr_active_mode and things do go smoothly from there. I never get any "getHotSpotEnabled: false" messages and no disconnects -- but running in this mode eats up my battery like mad.

Any clues as to what is going on? May go ahead, root, and install something other than the stock ROM -- was planning on doing that eventually, anyway.
