[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kuisma:
Try swapping on an ext3/ext4 device, and also use the full file path of the swap file to "busybox swapon".

Edit: Tested. If I try swapping on a FAT disk, I'll get the same error. ext3/4 works like a charm.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fkardame:
hey dev i read the whole thread n came to the conclusion that my device which is unbranded doesnt have swap support in kernel nor ext3-4 support

i tried swapper 2 with swap file but it shows function not implemented

so i tried to mount ext3 partition but it doesnt mount on the device seems it dont have ext3 support whereas i tried ext2 n mounted successfully but swap file on it still shows function not implemented

it would b nice if u can help me

thanks alot

I am new in the GSM network and after 3 months I am having a problem with the sim card saying that Is full and I need to delete messages but I don't have any and all my contacts are in the phone and google so is any way to fix this problem? Thank you!
[HTC Sensation] Rotundjere:
go to Messages app > Settings > Manage SIM card msg
[HTC Sensation] dmora01:
I did it but I still have the problem. It says no messages in SIM card.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Look in settings see if delete messages immediately is checked , if not its likely saving the messages. I keep delete messages immediately checked

If it's not checked they are sent to a folder. Have you looked into settings and deleted the messages out of that folder?its worth a try under general settings you can find delete old messages . Hope this helps, it's worth a shot...
[HTC Sensation] golagha11:
Any solution here? I have tried the SIM card in other phones too, but still not receiving SMS. I ave changed to new SIM-card, but still same message: "SIM card full", I have SGS2. But this is defiantly not a phone issue. May be a provider issue?
[HTC Sensation] golagha11:
For your information:

I received SMS on my twin sim-card, so SMS was forwarded, but not received on primary sim-card. Very strange.

My SMS issue was related to a problem with my provider. Even after replacing(registering) the SIM-card with a new one, I had that problem.

The provider restarted some services on my subscription, and everything is fine now.

How come i need to flash kernels when flashing roms, when i had htc desire all i had to do was flash the rom (.zip file). So how do i know what kernel goes with what rom. anyone able to explain this? i am not really dumb to rooting in general just new to this way of flashing. thank you.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tot_anusak:
First of all, this thread should be in the Q&A forum.

Answer your question: Because flashing the .zip ROM needs to be done in CWM. But for sony devices, the recovery is bundled with kernel (in .elf file). That's why you need to flash kernel (with CWM) before flashing the .zip ROM.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] David56543:
oh i see, thank you for answering my question. if i have CWM installed i don't need to flash kernel right? just .zip?

i didn't post this in Q&A cause i can't view any sections in sony xperia s sub-forum. i got this section of the forum via Google link. i have allowed no-script for this site but it just keeps refreshing the page so i had to disable JS for this site. I got a fix tho i will Google the other 'sections' and just bookmark them.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tot_anusak:
Not exactly. Some ROMs have their own specific kernel. Although your device has CWM installed, you may need to flash kernel which is compatible with ROM you're going to install separately.

Fortunately, some ROMs have their own kernel (boot.img) bundled in the zip, for example, CM10 and MIUI. While flashing these ROMs, their update script automatically installs the kernel while installing other stuffs needed. So in these cases you don't need to manually flash kernel, just flash ROM via CWM.

However, this is only applicable with some ROMs, not all. I suggest you read the installation instruction in each ROM's thread and some comments (use search button to search the thread). There should be somewhere in the thread tells you which kernels are compatible with the ROM you're going to install.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kien:
There are loads of different kernels for the Desire as well, the different ROM's were just a bit less fussy on which kernel you used.

[Nook Touch General] jamesagrieve:
Hi all,

A quick question here from a (Nook) newbie.

Prior to rooting my NST, I used the Kobo desktop app (on a Mac) to transfer purchased ebooks to the device. The desktop app detected the NST just fine (there is an "ereader" tab in the interface), and would sync all* my purchases without a hitch.

Since rooting, the NST continues to mount as a couple of USB volumes, but it's no longer recognised by Kobo.

Does anybody here see similar behaviour? For that matter, does anybody here use Kobo Desktop with the NST? Any insight would be most welcome.

Cheers,

J

* I say "all"-- it would sync all purchases secured with Adobe Digital Editions. For some reason I never got to the bottom of, any free books I'd add to the library (Kobo has a small selection, not secured with ADE obviously) wouldn't make the transfer.

---

UPDATE: I seem to have fixed the problem! I removed the SD card from the NST, reconnected it and it immediately started syncing. Really curious as to the mechanism behind this, so I might have a poke around later this afternoon. The Kobo Desktop app seems happy enough to sync the reader when there are other USB volumes (e.g. a pen drive) present.
[Nook Touch General] _ig_:
hi, what version of kobo are you using in the NST? Is it the lastest from Market? many thanks

I'm probably being retarded, here but do we flash the SGS3 or Snapdragon version, seeing as this phone is both?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Philosuffer:
I had the same question. He did say "updated to v3" so I'm guessing he means the Snapdragon version, but I'm still not 100% sure.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tarheelsmj12001:
Yes v3 is the Snapdragon one for us.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bradart:
Cool. Fun, new question because I bit the bullet and flashed v3 anyway:

Why is every setting I choose an invalid choice except for the ondemand profile? It's the only setting that doesn't error out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smokin1337:
If you set an ondemand profile you have to use ondemand governor. It changes ondemand settings

Anyone having this problem after installing this script?

I rooted an otherwise stock Verizon rom with GS3DebugFSRoot from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1792342 , on stock kernel, but I do have the required file init.qcom.post_boot.sh in /system/etc mentioned in OP for this to be able to work.

I flashed CPU-Editor_Snapdragon_v3.zip from recovery, it installed, back in Android typed su and cpu in terminal, got into program, went to set cpu0 min and cpu1 min freq, both said "current: 1134000, available min: 384000, available settings: .....", I chose 384000 for min, then went back out, exit terminal, came back in, looked at the min freq for both cpu's again, still said 1134000 (so didn't take the change). Looked in /system/xbin, the file start_stop_daemon was not there. Then I went back into recovery, flashed the start_stop_daemon.zip, went back into android, checked in /system/xbin, the file is there now. Went into terminal again, typed su and cpu, got back into program, did the same thing as above, it seems to remember everything (governor, ondemand profile, etc.) but not frequency settings. Cpu0 and Cpu1 both current min AND max freq are always set at 1134000, not matter what I choose, it says that as current min or max, which makes me wonder, is my phone always running at 1.134GHz at max even without this script? Is there a way to check current max cpu frequency without using this in terminal? Does anyone know why these numbers won't stick even without a reboot in the Verizon model? Anyone else on Verizon get this to work?

Also, even though the Governor and OnDemand settings stick while being powered, when I reboot, even though I do have the start_stop_daemon file in /system/xbin, it all resets again, for instance I set to "userspace" governor mode on both cpu's, it'll stay while power is on, but upon reboot it shows "OnDemand" again when I look at the current settings.

Am I doing something wrong or missing anything? If the frequencies don't stick, how do I know anything is happening different from my stock settings?

Thanks

If you read through the original thread (this is a repost) it is a bug in v1.3 of the CPU script. It seems like this isnt being updated anymore.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GetPatriotized:
So after the pass couple of months I've been getting battery drains, for example losing 1% after 5 minutes while on standby and had to charge every night

Last night I was out for a long long time and the battery drained with normal usage until I hit 18% (with about 14 hours off the charger) and it stayed there for quite a while. I was sending texts, outputing music in my car,using the GPS/Maps and the battery stayed at 18%. Was using data and brightness was around 25%.

I've been wiping battery stats every week, I don't know why but I got in the habit after this battery drain issue.

I think the battery ie 20% n after u left it, it move a bit say 23%, that is coz of the oc'd u've been doing. Each frequency hav diff volt. So the more u use the more it pulls. And when u finally let it down the un-wanted un-necessary volt is return back to the batt. So its normal. Its like a rubber bend or something similar. More tension means more power, when there's less tension it revert back to its form with a bit lost of physicality. Hope y'all understand what i'm getting at. The phone batt indicator is correct. U should always watch ur oc frequency. Hope thats explains everything

Like JB on Nexus 7. Miffed at Note updates. Anyone with note switched and wished they hadn't?

Is the screen disappointing compared to note?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leppo:
I switched last week. Best technology-related decision I've made this decade. The Note was fine, but since I couldn't stand TouchWiz, I was running CM9 (which wasn't quite full-featured, as the pen wasn't fully supported). The GNex feels so much better in the hand -- and pocket.

I hardly notice a difference with screen quality or size by looking at it, though the slight shrink in keyboard size took some getting used to.

Oh, plus I was able to stuff some extra cash in my pocket in the trade, even though the Note and Nexus were the same price when I bought the Note.
