symbolic link cause mount -o bind issues?

Sorry if this is a silly question but reading this thread make me understand a little bit more the issue I am facing with my Nexus 7 4.2.1 stock ROM rooted.

I will appreciate your help.

I am trying to move game data to a usb flash drive to save space, and then mount bind the directory using an OTG cable.

When I use StickMount I can see the usb drive at /sdcard/usbStorage/sda1 using ES File Explorer.

Then I use Terminal Emulator to mount bind the directory:

u0_a108@android:/ $ su

u0_a108@android:/ # mount -o bind /sdcard/usbStorage/sda1/test /sdcard/Android/data/test

These seems to work because if I navigate the directories using Terminal Emulator, I see how the test directory was linked and the data can be seen.

But if I use ES File Explorer to go to the same directory (/sdcard/Android/data/test), folder is empty, and if I try to run the game, it tries to download again because can't see the data in that directory.

So my question is if I can do the directory bind using other source like /data/media, /storage/sdcard0, or /mnt/sdcard instead of just /sdcard to make ES File Explorer and the game to see the data directory?

It is good to verify with Terminal Emulator that the directory bind worked but not good enough to make the game works saving internal storage space.

Is this problem due to symbolic links that you are discussing here?

Thanks a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crimsonite:
Hi every one, sorry for this noob question, but I too have noticed the duplication (or whatever this doubling of all the files is called) as "sdcard" and "storage/sdcard0" on my HTC One X. (And I apologize for posting in the Galaxy Nexus forum, but the thread seems very relevant to my query. )

I just flashed the new CM10.1 nightlies on JB 4.2.2 coming from CM10 nightlies.

I just want to know one thing. If it's just an emulation file (from what I understand), why does it take up the same amount of space as my original SD card contents? I really need the limited space on my HOX and having a double of all my files isn't helping. Could I delete anything without breaking anything? Could I just keep the "/storage/sdcard0" and delete the "/sdcard" ? Or vice versa?

I noticed when I deleted a file from "/storage/sdcard0", the same file on "/sdcard" will also disappear. Does that mean anything? Thank you so so much!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
Its the same directory. Its not duplicated. Dont worry about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crimsonite:
I just realised after rebooting, it disappeared! only storage/sdcard0 left! thank you for your quick reply!!:good:

Double Trouble SDCard0 and ExtSDCard

By Chance did you switch your Internal Memory to the SD Card to increase the memory? I did this and I was wondering if it caused another partition. Anyway, I am suffering from the same issue. ExtSDcard and SDcard0 . When I run the Partition App, I only get

1. System

2. Boot

3. Memory

when I use the control panel I cannot access the SD card. When I use the "My Files" app, I can get in. Do you know how to restore the original partitions and safely delete the baggage?

I am no expert, but I have been rooting and flashing for 2 years now without bricking. I am an advanced novice willing to give it a try. Thanks for any help!

Two weeks ago maniac103 decompiled the MotoFM radio from GB. You all know the Moto FM Radio. The UI is ugly. It won't look good in JB. So I decided to give her a makeover. The coding part is almost done. Since I suck bigtime in drawing It's time for tha community to give something back. I know there are some real talented designers here.

So I have attached an apk based on the current source here. You'll have to copy it to /system/app to install. You'll also nee FMRadioService.apk and FM radio binary. The source can be found here. What needed to be modded : radio panel background, radio panel fonts, radio scan animation, radio seekbar . If you want to help, pm me a mockup of the proposed design.

All the credits go to CyanogenDefy team, especially maniac103. For FM panel drawables thanks to dab512, Icon by Hairo and LeopardSurd

[Defy Android Development] Anhell:
i do really like it (dab512), i´ve just had an idea, what if it´s a kind of a scrolling dial, like a wheel, but from a side view. I´ll do paint if it´s neccesary.

But i don´t know what the limitations are, about animations and coding :confused:

This perfectly fits Apollo's default theme :P

But I use black-theme in Apollo because it's not that bright.

Maybe you can use Apollo's theme engine in future?
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
Sorry being out of topic here.

I do like apollo, but i hate it when apollo downloading album art for every artist and albums.

yes it's nice for known bands or artist, but for local band or artist, it's bad feature.

is there any way to stop it, and let it on traditional way, by using embedded album art inside mp3?

[Defy Android Development] Hairo The Blue Mage:
FINALLY!!! just when i thought the FMradio was forgotten by devs... i always thought it was ugly but no java (or c++) coding skills :(
[Defy Android Development] royale1223:
Yeah, I'd like that too. But it's too much work. I'll have to create new widget for the scrolling dial. You see, this is the third programming project I've ever worked on. I have not designed any custom widgets yet. I think that's a little out of my league right now. Maybe later when I'm more accomplished.

I'll see if I can add a preference to change theme.

Apollo is open source. The great thing about that is that you can modify your favorite applications according to your taste. Disabling auto downloading album art might be as simple as removing the network permissions from manifest. Give it a try.
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Loving this design.

Just the title bar looks like a waste of screen state to me.

[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
It shoud include only the name of the app. But also the actual icon should be changed. Red-black one doesn't fit. :)

By the way, the most important for me:will be able to recognise the Vol up/down buttons when screen is off? The actual FM radio from CM7 doesn't do that.
[Defy Android Development] m11kkaa:
In my opinion it's waste of space, too

I'm alway comparing with apollo a little bit and he don't has this bar(he has tabs instead which we currently dont need).

To the icon colors: light grey with cyan :)

Edit: Ah and: Is it possible to make changes so DSP influences FMRadio, too?

Currently only MusicPlayer's are affected, but I would like to hear Radio with full bass :D
[Defy Android Development] royale1223:
I'm sure that the action bar wouldn't be a waste of space once it contains actions like scan and save etc. And we could always add preferences to hide it.
[Defy Android Development] royale1223:
Hi, how are you my friend? Do you have any ideas for the icon? You make the most awesome icons.

I'm afraid the second question is maniac103's department.

[Defy Android Development] hackergnome:
2nd one is better
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Yes, my rewritten version does that. Framework support is needed for that, though, so as of now it only works in my latest CM7 build and Quarx' latest CM10 build.

I'm currently working on making the media next/prev buttons start either seek or preset changing as well ;)

No, it's not possible. The FM radio audio is not routed through the CPU.

[Defy Android Development] Hairo The Blue Mage:
so, what's your suggestion??
[Defy Android Development] royale1223:
Nothing much about the design. But the icon must be at least 96x96 or preferably 1024x1024

Nice one. But we've already accepted the design from dab512. You can pm him if you wanna help.

[Defy Android Development] Hairo The Blue Mage:
i took this icon as base, same size:

https://github.com/royale1223/andro...ob/gingerbread/res/drawable/fm_radio_icon.png

i do not know too much about android design but here states that for a hdpi device like ours the icon must be 72x72 (as the one on your github, and therefore my mod), if that base icon is resized it will look horribly wrong, i'll try to find a bigger motorola fm radio icon or i'll make one from scratch...
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Royale1223,

BTW, why did you do that (seemingly pointless) reformatting thing in the holo patch? It makes reviewing and merging impossible, and the previous coding style matched the Android coding guidelines.

Oh Maniac103...its sad that sound cannot be enhanced for the radio...wish it could be recorded as well...can we do that? add a rec function in there?

No, we can't (for the same reason).

[Defy Android Development] aribis:
Well then can we not start routing the radio audio through cpu for all these features to be enabled or is it a limitation of android?
[Defy Android Development] m11kkaa:
only a speculation, but: I think the problem is, that we can only say the chipset that he should connect the speakers to the fmradio-chip and that it has no function for reading the audio-stream.

Edit: After reading this doesn't make sense xD

I think the internal wires only allow to switch the speaker between omap-chipset and fmradio-chip. But the audioline isn't directly connected to the omap-chipset.

To anyone how knows more about that topic: is that true? :D
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
I like the darker version. It is more visible, the costrast cyan-black-white is better. My point.

Here is my little suggestion. I don't have the pattern you use but is not a problem for me to add it.

What do you think about?

I worked from scratch in Gimp. The original size is 512x512 but it is not important because this size is useful only for Google Play.

The one atteched is resised to 200x200 only to observe the details.
[Defy Android Development] labsin:

Great icon guys, I have added it. https://github.com/royale1223/andro...mmit/34688c12196416850340d2f252739552312cae56 . Tell me if something's wrong.

I have corrected that : https://github.com/tpruvot/android_packages_apps_MotoFM/pull/2. Formatting now uses android guidelines. I have also splitted Holo Theme commit. By the way, xml formatting was pretty off.

Yea, I guess we have enough space to add two more actions in the bottom bar.

There's no harm in trying. The radio should work in latest CM9/CM10 builds if the apk is place in /system/app . Also make sure you backup the old radio.
[Defy Android Development] dab512:
i draw original icon :)

And 72*72 optimised
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
It looks very good, perhaps the best work but need to be more simple. The antenna and that that little strap doesn't fit with the graphical rules from Google. And obviously, all these beautiful details will be lost in Defy apply drawer (72x72).
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
No, it wasn't. Indention of my code was correct according to the guidelines, and IMHO far more readable (the 8 char indention serves a purpose, after all).

If you want to do me a favour (and want me to continue working on the FM radio), please leave out this reformatting stuff (which was done by an autoformatter, which doesn't care about the semantics of the code and makes code less readable in the process - I've had horrible experience with that back when working on Compiz/Beryl) while the code is still actively in the works.

We can fix formatting details (manually) when the code base is stable.
[Defy Android Development] aribis:
i like that

Man you are good!...since the design according to Leopardsurd is not going with the guidelines will suggest you to slim the frills and trim the speaker panel in line with the reading panel...hope that fits in good!

[Defy Android Development] abhifx:
Man you are good
[Defy Android Development] starbright_:
Great that you rework the GUI of FM radio! I am already using the modified version with no Flight mode/headset.

What I miss are a few more station buttons (at the first glance). Five is just too less. A lot of space is (my opinion) wasted with the line where just the icon is shown!? Also the scale 88...108 is of no importance (imho).

Maybe station list in 2 columns?

What I like is to see is station name + freq, as I have here 3 stations with different frequencies, and depending on the location I have to use this or that.

Additionally I would go for more than 1 layer of stations. Lets assume you travel a lot and want to autosearch the stations near you. I will not overwrite my home stations with this!

Also there could be one layer for at home, a second for at work or any other place you stay often...

One more hint: As backlight of defy is not the strongest I would go for (at least optional) a strong contrast in GUI. In the original GUI I really have problems in sunlight. It may doesn't look as fancy but is better visible.
[Defy Android Development] aribis:
No doubt its good but think you have changed the ststion readout panel font shadows and made the contrast lighter which takes out a little charm out of the your design...the darker shadows with high contrast were looking nice...wat say? the blue soft background behind is reducing the readability and prominance... nonetheless great job!
[Defy Android Development] G00fY2:
I really like the icon, but in my opinion it doesn't fit the the simplified design Google uses in Android. Look at other Google stock icons, e.g. sms, play store, clock or camera. There is nothing that detailed.

Just my opinion.
[Defy Android Development] dab512:
more simply :)
[Defy Android Development] UEman:
Could you put that fm in the middle of the radio, it looks really strange to me :P
[Defy Android Development] KeinBernd:
Great work here, but what about localizing the app?

And if I'm not mistaken, there is a 20 stations limit (sorry if I'm wrong, don't have my Defy right now), any chance to fix it as there way more stations especially in urban areas.
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
The limit could be increased easily, but do you really regularly listen to more than 20 stations?

And the app is already localized - more translations can be added when the string set is somewhat settled.

[Defy Android Development] NITRO_100:
I like the previous one more. Good job through.

Sent from my ICS Defy
[Defy Android Development] KeinBernd:
That's what I meant, as soon as it is possible we could add new translations, I certainly would join in regarding a Czech translation.

Regarding the list, well, depends, I'd just like to have them saved. way more usable would be if you had more lists, especially if you're commuting between two places. But anyway, these are just details.

Apart from that, I found some GUI concept on devaintart (it's not my work) and it doesn't look bad at all, maybe some elements could be usable.

Here is the link.

And the icon is well made, it's simple and fits into ICS/JB. Just the grainy black background on the top is not so awesome, but the .psd is in the zip on deviantart, so as I said, maybe this could be used somehow.
[Defy Android Development] starbright_:
I live in an area with difficult receiving conditions. Just from my one most favorite station I have 3 frequencies.

Again, I would prefer some kind of bank or layer, as for instance not to overwrite your favorite stations , just because you are abroad and do an autosearch. Or as a minimum requirement one bank for autosearch results.

With this kind of storing stations 20 per layer are enough.

To the layout:

What is the idea behind to locate the search buttons at the lower end and not just below the Scale/Frequency display?

What about scrolling the stationlist: Shall the buttonbar keep its position and the middle part with the station list is scrolling? Sounds not so great to me.
[Defy Android Development] abhifx:
the default icons are bland and downright weird (the dialer icon is horrible)

[Defy Android Development] aribis:
ok a few thoughts after using your build...

1)the seek sensitivity is giving just "medium" option whereas the one in Epsy last build gives far more options to increase its sensitivity...you can use that one...

2)the bland white preset panel is not very attractive...need to rethink if you want some shades on it...something like the white speaker panel of the radio icon suggested in dab512 icon...

3)the menu needs to be more like the original one than the list type...looks better and a better UI

...thats all as of now...will wait for tomorrows updates!
[Defy Android Development] adi4motion:
i don't sgree... it fits better with jb...

it's still a bit buggy... the hide action bar option works rarely... it asks me if i want to scan all stations even if i scanned them already... i also had a scan where it found the stations but it couldn;t save them (and wrote 0 stations found)

but i love the new UI! i actually started using it ( the FM radio) since the new app... I hated so much the old app that i never used it (in two years)
[Defy Android Development] Fermas:

[Defy Android Development] espaciosalter20:
don't be!! The new installable package is up... You have to erase your previously fm app (you will find it in /system/app folder), rename the one from OP (to FMRadio), copy to /system/app folder, give right permissions (rw--r--r) or 644 in terminal, reboot your phone and voila! New fm radio app

Any chance of a new statusbar icon? I don't like the current one. Maybe just FM in a square? A bit notification bar would be cool to :D with a search next (maybe in settings replaceable with next station in list) and an exit button.

That would be really nice.

This is the best icon but need a little perspective corrections. See my attachement. I hope you understand what I want to say. You should made it, my point. :o

P.S. About the status bar icon, yes, need to be changed.
[Defy Android Development] dab512:
I can't agree with you. No need perspective correction. If you check with guidelines you see,that no one icon has similar perspective distorsion. All vertical lines are parallel to each other. Look to SMS icon, settings, calendar, Google talk and other native icons you seen that I right.
