[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarsVaeda:
Thanks for your reply.

It is my productive phone so I need a stable and fast rom.

Thus I plan to use the latest stable cm which happens to be 7.2 if I'm right.

I'm running Ubuntu on my desktop so I will def. use gparted ;)

So do I get that right:

- wipe my card and partition it with gp

- then wipe my phone and flash CM7.2

- then install s2e (or else) and setup to use the partition
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khiven:
That's right, but imo it would be easier if you install another recovery and do all steps directly from your phone. Also its not necessary but recommended to fully wipe your card, you can just create the ext partition and maintain the other things you have.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarsVaeda:
what recovery can do all this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khiven:
There are lot of them, but I like 4Ext recovery
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarsVaeda:
Okay what I actually did was:

- install ROM Manager

- install clockworkmod

- install Cyanogen via ROM Manager

- clear all caches and storages via the clockworkmod

- partition via clockworkmod (no swap)

- reformat the partition from ext3 to ext4

- install s2e

- choose mount-to-ext4

- reboot

- select what to move (no download cache)

Thanks to all!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taodan:
Try do download an app from Google Play or update an app when using S2E and see you have any problem (e.g., reboot or can't update error message). I had problems with S2E when using CM7.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Thrilla:
I really recommend you to stay away from Clockwork. I had a lot of problems with partitioning.

I thought I was a faulty SD Card ,so I threw it away but I was the recovery fault.

I have been using 4EXT Recovery for a while now and I still have encounter my first problem.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarsVaeda:
I had the same problem, cleared Dalvik and other Caches, then it was gone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarsVaeda:
Yes I read that too somewhere else, that is why I formatted with gparted again.

Works fine so far, no problems.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boypro25:
i can't restore a file back up (back up by 4EXT) by CWM 5.0.0.2.

It don't work "restoring sd-ext....."

:(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpm:
Use 4ext recovery to restore your 4ext backup :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarsVaeda:
Still works good except it killed my 16GB card. I'm now on a 8GB. Hope it doesn't die too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mickosis:
This is my third Nexus to play with and this is the first time I encountered this problem on flashing.

Using fastboot commands seems to flash the other imgs, but specifically on the system.img and radio.img it says

writing 'system.img' . . . FAILED (remote: Write Fail)

I tried searching on different forums even Nexus One's and Nexus S', but still to no avail.

Any ideas? It will be greatly appreciated! :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Corrupt system partitions? Bad cable? These are some possibilities does this process work on other Nexus's ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mickosis:
I don't think a bad cable is the case, this is the original cable and I have used it to flash a yakju build a week earlier.

But on the corrupt partitions, how can I fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
You don't. And I could never trust Samsung stock cables... very thin and long. That's a lot of room for error. I'm just spitting out possibilities. In hope to narrow itndown
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mickosis:
So if in case I got a corrupted partition problem, I should bring this to a Samsung repair store?

Damn Samsung corrupted already in a week @___@

Update : I tried adb-ing in CWM a nandroid and restore, it didn't spit out an error, but it seems it goes on a boot loop when I boot it up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Are you trying to flash Google's stock images? Have you tried redownloading them just incase the download was corrupt or something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mickosis:
Yes, I tried yakju and takju. The system.img always give that error. Everything else can be pushed and written.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Try 'fastboot erase system', then flash system.

Trying this on windows or Linux?

Which adb version are you using?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mickosis:
I got it fixed, weird, I tried fastboot flashing on a different PC and it worked.

Thanks to all who replied, you may close this now :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Like the post above yours, have you tried another PC?

Sent from my i9250
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
+1. This.

It is probably a driver or cable issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nictew:
Writing 'system failed'

Yes, already tried in other pc without luck.

Also from recovery menu, using wipe data/reset to factory default fails, as it cannot format the respective partitions.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ErichMoraga:
Per the I/O error, I would say yes, there's a hardware problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
have you tried erasing first, then flash? in fastboot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] julienvt:
Hi,

i have a similar problem, can't format/erase/write on userdata partition.

i tried with odin, several pda (all fails when trying to write userdata)

and

fastboot erase userdata

fails too (just hangs forever, when other partitions are erase in tenth of second), tried from windows and linux, with different cables...

so, hardware issue ? anything i can try to fix it (soft/hard)? replacing the motherboard would work ?

thanks in advance !

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] wintermute000:
Anyone tried changing DPI on ICS successfully?

I tried setting it to 150 but softbricked, had to restore a nandroid.

My main motivation is that although we can change system font to large, not all apps obey properly, also on large, some apps layouts are not optimum and look a bit bad e.g. google play.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] harvickgm:
Ok, so i was super excited to hear that we are finally able to overclock, been waiting to do this since i picked up this phone and put down my OG Evo.. anyways, i tried Dread 7us's app Overclock v1.0, and installed it, pulled up Setcpu and i can see but it doesnt stick.. i pull up quadrant and look at system information. the max freq is set at my desired freq (1809MHz) but the actual never goes above 1512MHz. i go back into Setcpu and it says the same thing, max is 1809 but it doesnt go over 1512.

so i thought it could be the rom, i was on Rejuv 1.5, so i switched to OMJ 1.1 and same thing. Then Overclock v1.1 came out and i tried that with no luck, doesnt stick.

Then MeanRom 1.0 came out, and my phone hasnt really liked this rom but i wanted to see how it would do with the OC built into the rom at 1.72GHz. I get it all set up and go into quadrant and check my settings and the same thing, it shows max at 1.7GHz but my actual never goes higher than 1.5, even my quadrant scores do not change

i dont think im the only one having issues, i have heard of a few others having issues with it sticking, and the ones who think it is and post up quadrant scores of 5000-5200, my phone is doing that without being OC'd..

i have rooted many phones and flashed 100's of times, but havent ran into this before. Anybody got any idea's as to why this may be happening or any ideas i can try to see if it will stick

thanks for the help guys
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:
Just wondering where your checking the frequencies.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] harvickgm:
Like I stated in the OP, I used Setcpu and quadrant

Sent from my Supercharged ELiTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dredz:
You stated that setcpu was used for verification. You have to use setcpu to set clock speed also. Dread7us' apk is kind of like setting the threshold max, so you can use a 3rd party app (setcpu) to OC. Hth.:cool:

:cool:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] harvickgm:
Yes I know that.. and that's what I have done, but it does not stay. The max freq will say 1809 but the ACTUAL FREQ will never go above 1512 which is stock. This is what I'm trying to figure out and why

I had the same issue when I tried the OC... I checked in SetCPU, Quadrant, and System Monitor with the governor set to performance. Clock speed stayed at 1500MHz no matter what.

I uninstalled the OC APK and am just sticking with stock until we can get some proper kernels out. The stock speed is fast enough for everything I want to do realistically.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jspsuperman:
I had the same exact problem and run fresh rom. It would stick for normal use but as soon as I ran a benchmark it dropped to 1.5 again.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slyphin:
I looked at almost every thread I could see that sounds like my case but in every one the device is at least being recognized by USB on the computer, in my case it has absolutely no recognition.

I had custom gedeROM. gf didn't like it and so I decided to go back to stock.

within TWRP I did Factory reset, then installed the stock bin file that i renamed to update.zip. Install went through properly so I restarted.

Now it is frozen on Kindle Fire boot screen, and it won't go further. Attaching it to a computer with USB will power the Kindle on but the computer will not detect it, tried on 3 computers, Windows 7 and Linux. I have tried to use all forms of unbricking, everything except opening the Kindle. But since the device isn't being recognized by USB at all on any system I don't know what to do.

With a Factory cable help with this?

Installing Amazon's stock update.zip gets rid of FFF and TWRP, so at this point, your only choices are either getting a factory cable (recommended) or cracking open the case and resorting to the USB short trick + firekit.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTC_645:
Hi, everyone

I have recently installed the SD version of NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.4 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1434860).

It works fine but with some apps or games they will take a long time to launch for the first time (5 to 10 minutes), and once they finally load they will be very jittery or laggy (audio cutting, graphics being slow, locking the device), but once they have been left to run at the start screen of the app for about 20 to 30 minutes, the lag stops and it will be absolutely flawless.

A few apps that this has occurred on have been,Temple Run, Where's My Water, Cut The Rope, Soundcloud and Google Maps.

My question is what is the phone doing?, can i stop the intense laggs from occurring?

Help would be much appreciated:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SpoonyVoid:
Well for one thing, it's the SD version so it's bound to be a lot laggier and slower than the NAND version since you are running it from the SD card after all and not the faster NAND.

Have you tried flashing a custom winmo6.5 ROM that reduces bugs and increases its speed significantly? That could help. Running the stock WinMo6.5 IMO won't maximize your SD android's performance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hahmoode:
Does anyone else have the issue where the Clockwork mod wont install. I have tried using rom manager, and did the terminal and pushing the blob file through but it just refuses to install. All the transformer does is give me a logo. The next step i tried is using the Goo manager to install the recovery but same thing, it refuses to boot to it or install technically!!

PLEASE HELP! does anyone know what im doing wrong or if there is a way to fix this?

(if this is the wrong forum for this please inform me immediately.)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Striatum_bdr:
On an unlocked device I don't think there can be aproblem to install a recovery.

All methods (terminal one or apps like Rom Manager and Goo) are in fact the same, copying the img or blob file in the flash partition, and the real flash occurs at next boot.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hahmoode:
So with those steps it still hasn't installed recovery! So the thing is that i have full root, and my prime is unlocked, but it just WONT install recovery using any app or manually! Is there a idea on why my prime wont let me?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fredgar75:
Ok just to be sure. You did unlock through asus? And you are rooted I know you said you have but just want to make sure. The only reason you wouldnt be able to flash a recovery is if your not unlocked. Just trying to rule out the obvious.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xxgmon3yxx:
Simple steps:

1-Unlock prime

2-Download the ROM of your choice.

3-Download Goo Manager from the Play Store. Open it and hit menu - Install OpenRecoveryScript. The app will ask for su perms and may exit back to the main screen. Hit the install button again and the app will download the recovery, flash it and reboot. You'll see the flashing process and your tablet will reboot again. At this point you can hold vol down, then up to enter recovery.

4-Flash ROM

5-Profit!!

Doesn't get any easier, takes about 10 minutes for everything.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CharliesTheMan:
I used the multi root tool, viper mods tool I think it was, from a long time ago that was designed for rooting the .15 firmware, even though I was on .21 or .28 and I didn't use it to root, I only used the option to install recovery, which installs the latest TWRP recovery when I had a similar issue.

It worked great, I just ran the program on the computer and told it to install recovery.
