[Motorola Atrix 2] JimiGEE:
So I am hoping I get a reply...but I am wondering if there would be some reason as to why I am having a serious problem with putting a custom ROM onto my phone. I am not a NOOB with the process and I have successfully had a custom ROM on this phone, numerous of times. I recently tried to go to GB from ICS (stupid mistake - i know) I then FXZ back to Stock ICS - and this is where I currently sit --- I have rooted succesfully and installed BMM via the Play Store, but whenever I try to install a custom ROM - i get a black screen. I have attempted CM11 (kit kat) - 4.3 AOKP and 4.2 jellybeer - all give me the same result and yes I am flashing the appropriate JBX kernel as well. Anybody have an idea as to whats up?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Hey Jimi, I'll see how best I can advise you though I don't have much time atm. If that's all happening yet you managed to get back to stock and root just fine, then maybe the GB took it's toll in some way. I haven't seen a case like yours before since most people seriously brick whenever they go back to GB and it's very difficult or impossible to fix. :eek:

Aside from that, have you tried booting these roms without flashing the JBX kernel? What specific gapps are you using? Try the normal signed gapps from Goo if you aren't doing so already and if you've done all that and still the same result then I dunno.:(
[Motorola Atrix 2] JimiGEE:
I only attempted to flash without JBX kernel once. And that was with Jellybeer and I used Bootstrap Recovery instead of BMM - and I still got the black screen. I am using the correct GAPPS - and I am with you...COMPLETELY stumped. I mean, I am glad I am at least able to FXZ back to stock ICS...and the only thing I can think of - is the Firmware I use to FX isnt to the EXACT correct version for my phone? I have no idea. THank you for your attempt at assistance though! Much appreciated.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rea1l1:
I had a similar if not the problem the other day. I simply redid the entire process of rsd lite flashing back to Ics then reinstalling bmm.

hello, the driver link from main post it is didn't working, could you tell me where i can download it for mb865:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:, thz

here is the link i used. these drivers worked for me. check out my signature for additional info on the atrix 2.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JimiGEE:
I have flashed back numerous of times. I still for some reason can not get it to work. After I originally posted my issue, somehow I was able to flash the AOKP Rom, but after flashing a zip file for a home launcher..i had to FXZ back to ICS again. So, here I am again...on sock Rooted ICS - with BMM, not being able to flash a ROM. Whenever I do, I get a black screen. (and yes, I am flashing correctly and with JBX)

HOW can I

my Galaxy S3 so I can Integrate app Updates into Rom?

Ansy answers?:cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
I guess you come from an HTC phone...

Easy: SGS3 is not NAND lock!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
As already said by Mopral Samsung does not hinder aftermarket developers like Motorola and HTC tend to so. (Which I'm really grateful for)

Furthermore they even make sure the phone is hard to hardbrick and include an easy-to-use firmware update mode to flash new ROM's from the computer.

So yeah, welcome to the world of an open OS running on open phones.

(Sadly this does not extend to the hardware which, like any manufacturer, is considered a trade secret)

However the usual SIM-lock still apply, but as with all Samsung phones it has been cracked some time ago.

QUESTION

the size of my internal storage is 11.4GB (which is 12GB from 16GB, so the phone uses the 4GB as system)

BUT when i format it, it says only 10GB (9.9GB to be exact) is available.

WHY? and what is using the 1.5GB rest of the storage?

Can it be cleaned up?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omid_freesky:
Another Question

So, as you can see i did a full format of internal storage to START OVER CLEAN

and i copied every thing to "A folder" in my external memory

BUT after i formated the internal memory i went to the External memory to find that my folder turned into a NON recognizable sort of file with 0kb of size.

the memory size shows that my files are in there but WHERE?

my little girl's birthday videos and pictures are in there so i really really need them back.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No idea what you are doing but to recover files you can try RECUVA .

Looks like you formatted external sd card .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Take the card out and plug it into your computer.

(Or use my Usb mass-storage mode scripts around here somewhere if you're rooted, it makes no difference)

This is a known issue with the phone and exFAT, Fat32 seems to work fine.

Should the file really be damaged (and not only non-readable by the phone) you can use Recuva as suggested by the parent.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omid_freesky:
Thank you Guys for the help, and I GOT the whole thing back.

when i removed external memory and put it in my windows laptop (because i did it with mac the first time) i found the folder there.

i renamed it and put it back in the phone and it was OKEY.

QUESTION THOUGH:

as my first post i did this format to have a clean Empty 12GB of internal memory BUT i end up having less than 10GB even after format.

What is this and why can't i empty the rest?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
You can't just format the internal memory as it is using a shared file system with the system. Can you tell us what you did to format it?

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omid_freesky:
i connected it to the computer and did a format.

it was totally fine but it shows the Total size is 11.9GB and after format it still uses about 2GB and says 9.9GB available (2GB used)

the total size of the internal memory is 16GB and 4GB is used by the System but why 2 more is taken from the 12GB too
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
Probably installed apps. They share the available space with the folder you see as /sdcard/. Check your storage in the settings.

MIUI MDPI

What works:

- Everything that works in tejasdj12's CM7 Build Three

What doesn't:

- ???

Why it's different than other MIUIs:

All MIUI ROMs available on any device contain hdpi graphics while our phone has mdpi ones. Before our phone had to resize graphics to mdpi in real time causing stuttering and lack of ram. Now it's over. I've managed to resize thousands of png and .9.png to mdpi resolution, which means that MIUI is running flawlessly on our poor device. First boot may not be as fast as it should be, but after setting everything up in CM Settings and all other stuff and reboot it works much much better than other MIUI ROMs available.

I want to port it to my device. What should i do?

Port as usual and add my paypal donation email and notice about who resized all of those graphics (me) to your topic. Also add a link to this topic and send me PM so i could include it here in section "Other devices".

Note:

I do not give you permission to make any softmods or your own version of my ROM on GT540.

Download

MDPI Lockscreens

Themes fix:

Create data/system/theme folder to make themes work

Rom i've ported and resized

Resources to Port

1. Download resources and find working CM7 rom for your device
2. Open up a rom zip and remove: app, fonts, framework and media
3. Copy over package content to your system and flash it.
4. Boot it up and see if it works.

Other Devices:

HTC Wildfire S

Orange Boston

Samsung Galaxy Ace

Samsung Galaxy Gio

LG Optimus V

I'm not responsible for stuff found on other devices section of this topic. Those aren't only xda links, but some other i've recieved from devs. Use at your own risk, if you'll brick your device with someone else's stuff, then it's not my fault.

Have fun ;)​

Is the images from the rom? it seems that the launcher has some graphic bug? folder icon is to big and page indicator is a little bit lower than normal? Did you fix status bar issue when apply theme with transparent status bar?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Koloses:
Launcher is a bit messed up (don't use folders and you'll live with it), i didn't check themes. It wasn't a goal for ROM. Goal was to port all the apps to mdpi resolution and it's done.

Try to compilate new framework-miui-res, extract it, then extract orginal framework-miui-res i some folder and copy moded staff from new framework-miui-res over old one. You need to copy resources.arsc to. After that selec all files from folder, add to arhive with 7zip, compresion store, format zip. Now just replace extension to apk and try to flash. It should work. :)

So rom is zipalignig on boot? So i guess you already tried without tweaks and mods?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Ziore:
Not a single FC yet. (Just when it loads system for the first time)

IT runs flawless in my phone, it's really awesome, great job (despite the bugs with the statusbar and the widgets)

I got just 1 question, if I install my applications like Gmail, Maps, etc- The icons will be MDPI or HDPI?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Koloses:
bataya, that's the way i was doing those apps all the time.

-Grift-, yes. I said it's using LAGBUSTER script for MIUI. Found on MIUIPOLSKA forums.

Ziore, phone is using mdpi by default and google apps have mdpi graphics. It should use mdpi.

@Edit: Miui framework is a real pain in the ass.. I was trying to make working mdpi version for a few hours and still no results... It's compiling without errors, but it causes bootloop. Today i've managed to do a "temp-fix" for statusbar. It's black for now..

You changed only the color of the statusbar? So it's still bugged?

well, i try to repacking Nim's MIUI GB by adding some of your mdpi apps, except launcher and systemUI.apk . it's quite stable and now i can change my status bar n launcher :D

anyway, several days ago i was searching custom rom for my friend's Htc Hero and i found this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1636813 . it was fast and stable rom and i found htc hero has same procesor (armv6 mdpi) with our phone. so i try to porting to my ace, it boot succesfully but i lost root acces. just wanna inform you, maybe you have better luck if you wanna try :) . as i know, there are lot of unnoficial MIUI gb built for mdpi phone out there. but they have same problem, low performance because of miui rom itself ( you tell us on first page :D )

Images are optimized as much as possible and i don't see any stuttering anymore. HTX MIUI as a base gives rom a boost too.​

hey, i'm back again!

I successfully ported the rom to SDSL 2.1 with kernel 2.6.35 but:

- When I try to open QuickPic it close automatically(FC). I remember that this error happend to someone a few months ago and it was because a missing library when Quick Pic is installed as system app or something like that.

- Like in your port: when I open

* phone app,

* system app

* sms app

* and contacts app (sometimes)

launcher is killed even if is "die hard" (using supercharger) or is locked in memory (from launcher settings or cyanogenmod settings).

Maybe this rom still needs swap, but is weird because with normal SDSL is not needed...

- Wifi issue was solved (in my case using wpa 0.6)

- Rom seems to be faster than one with 2.6.32 kernel, or at least "as fast as".

- Vertical sync don't work... Didn't tried in your version...

- FC=com.android.settings happend to me everytime i tried to do anything related to system app in launcher pro (add widgets, change shortcuts in dock, change icons). MIUI launcher is "fancy" but not as fast launcher pro, plus is "not practical" (don't have app drawer, i know! miui don't have app drawer's!) and eats a lot of memory (-> is killed everytime other "semi-heavy" app is opened, examples above)

I'm rolling back to normal SDSL right now... the rom is fancy but is not usable for me (specially for system app FC's).
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] shadovraven:
MIUI was never meant for low end devices like GT540, it's quite a success it's running like this considering that GT540 doesn't have much ram. Port itself is pretty good but hardware limitation is something that we cannot overcome. The only thing that comes to my mind would be actually limiting amount of ram taked by system processes and launcher by lowerig VM heapsize and increasing compcache to maximum or changing the launcher to other.
