Thanks for the input, guys. I'm getting a clearer picture on what I should do with my new external storage. Now, let me ask a few more questions:

a.) Any particular reason why I should use ext3? Shouldn't the partition be both FAT32's?

b.) If I do use ext3, what would be the reason? Any advantage over FAT32? Also, is ext4 better?

b.) What should be the ratio when I partition my card? Ex. 50:50, 75:25, etc.

Again, thanks. I'll be doing my own research on the topic while I'm away.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ScatteredHell:
1- u can use fat32 too. But ext 2,3,4 are better. If the rom support u can use ext 3 or 4..

2- ext3 is better than ext2 (correct me if i wrong)..yeah use ext4

3- for ext - 1024mb is enough

for ur swap 128

sd card should be fat32

As above guy said, use cwm
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iPusak Gaoq™:
hmmm...the safest format when you want to partitions your SD card is FAT/FAT32....EXT2/EXT3/EXT4 is good but depend on your kernel...you your using custom kernel then those format wont be any problem to your phone....

here is the best way to partition your 32Gb SD card....

for your main storage/primary = FAT32

for your 2nd partition/primary = EXT2/EXT3/EXT4

for linux swap = you dont need this partitions so its an option....

Size for your main storage = the remaining size after you have partition it

Size for your 2nd partition = 1024mb (do not go beyond this size)

Size for Swap (option) = 100mb....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ScatteredHell:
Yeah,
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] messagemode:
I've went ahead and formatted my SD card into one FAT32 and one ext3 partition (still thinking about ext3, though). I've linked my apps to the ext3 partition. I've managed to free up about 100mb+ in internal storage space. Time to clean up my system ROM, let's see how much free space I can get.

Thanks to Pusak Gaoq, bandarigoda123 and Rudjgaard. You've all been great. :D

Hi all.I'm in the UK with the Samsung galaxy s3.and Orange/t~ mobile are advertising working 4g towards the end of the year.

Now I'm wondering is our s3 going to work on 4g ?

I've googled this and some sites say yes and others say no ?

Thanks in advance....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
No, the GT-I9300 model does not and will not support 4G. This is the reason why the US Variants use a different SoC, as it has an inbuilt support for 4G, while the Exynos SoC does not.

I can connect to PC using FASTBOOT USB

Have tried many RUU from "Shipped ROMs" site - no avail.

I have tried a few ICS but some hang and some go into boot loop.

Anyone willing to share their same experiences ? Maybe we can find a forward path ???
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
To run ruu's you have to relock your boot loader first.

1. Connect your phone to PC in fast boot.

2. Run cmd

3.type fastboot oem lock

4. Bootloader relocked.

Now you can run it from your PC if the ruu file is an exe file.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetbruceli:
Hey all just want to say, I got this phone for a great deal and although I own a galaxy s3 international I am super impressed with this phone.

Not sure which one to keep now!

How much do you all think this phone is worth since its in perfect condition and have the original box and charger?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Not much more than around $300, given you can buy it from the Play Store for $350.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetbruceli:
I got it for 150 usd!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sublimaze:
$150 is a steal considering its modding potential & not even a year old. Which one to keep depends on your priorities and whether you need some extra cash. If you're the type that must have the latest & greatest, keep the SGS3. If you want a phone with the best dev support, or you need cash, then keep the GNex and sell the SGS3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetbruceli:
Well bought my gs3 a month ago and love it.

I saw this deal and took a chance on it. I will end up selling it though as my gs3 is better suited for me. Maybe trade this for a nexus 7
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eman3316@optonline.net:
So you came here to start a new thread to let us know you got the phone and will be selling it.

Mmm, okay. Thanks for the great info.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GuestK007:
right, im thinking the OP should just stay on the gs3 forum instead of buying the phone to tell us how it isn't as good as a gs3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetbruceli:
First of all no I didn't come here to talk about the s3, I am talking about this gn that I just got today for 150 bucks. Its an amazing device none the less but I do still have my gs3 which I personally like better.

Was looking for some opinions on it. I am going to keep it as a secondary phone plus it has great development capabilities.

Please don't try to make me sound like arsh.

Anyways will look into rooting all that jazz later!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
$150 is a scream'n deal. Nice
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetbruceli:
This lady was selling it here in Germany because she thought she can't use it in the states or something.

I didn't argue or inquire to much, just gave her 150 cash and got the phone.

Its really nice to Jelly Bean too! The s3 might get it this next week.

With having the nexus I think it will take care of the flashing habit of mine plus I know it will get android updates in the long run versus the s3! So yeah win win for me!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kamilp:
Anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gpfnzl:
My personal experience is NO you can't.

If you have data enabled all the time your ok.

If you have data and wifi enabled, you have to manually switch wifi off for your MMS to be sent/receivied.

Miui is the only rom i have used that does this automatically.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maliceomalice:
I tried bringing up this issue once and everyone just told me i have to "enable data coz whats the use of a smartphone if u not using data.?"(actual quote). I thought this statement as idiotic coz sprint/verizon is not worldwide and not in my country to be offering me unlimited data plan.

I noticed this issue happens to samsung phones. I used 2 sony's before and it works fine without enabling data. Im not being prone to any companies here, but this is my observation.

Long story short, to avoid excessive data charge, u can try to tweak ur apn a little bit. Edit ur internet apn (not the MMS one) and change the type from "default" to "mms" to send/receive MMS. This will allow ur data to only be used for MMS. To use internet again, change the back to "default".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kamilp:
Thanks for your replies!

Couldn't agree more, this statement is idiotic. I don't understand why people defend something that is an obvious flaw of Android. I mean we're talking about one of the ( if not THE ) most advanced mobile OS, which in this regard is worse than any feature phone I can think of. There's nothing good about forcing people to manually do things that have been automated on their old phones. Or forcing them to drain their battery more, if they don't really need to.

And re Samsung's fault -- I'm personally inclined to believe it's rather Google's fault, as it seems to occur on stock Android ( and custom roms based on it), no matter on what phone it's intalled. It's just that some manufacturers fixed it on their own (HTC, Sony -- not sure about the others). Even MIUI guys cared enough to get it done in their rom. I wonder what would it take to bring it to, say, Cyanogenmod guys' attention. If they did it, all the other custom rom makers would probably include it in their work as well.

As for fixing it by reconfiguring apns... I considered that, but this would still leave me with data enabled all the time, and frankly I'm even more worried about battery than charges. So i used Tasker + apndroid plugin to enable/disable Apns on mms receive. It actually works. But I still have to enable data by hand when sending MMS (tasker is unable to recognize events in sms app, unfortunately).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kamilp:
Anyone else? I'm still hoping there's someone with dev experience who might now how to copy the MIUI solution to other ROMs (in a form of flashable zip maybe?)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psns:
I have exactly the same issue... If the MIUI ROM supports this feature shouldn't be that difficult to include it in other ROM's (actually I don't know how to do it, but there is a lot of god programmers and experts around here! ;))
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kamilp:
Yeah, one would think so, right? Unfortunately, I have yet to see a non-MIUI rom with this feature supported. I'd really like to have a clean JB rom with this...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 22stars:
please pardon my being a noob here, because i recognize what the problem is by reading this thread, and i'm no dev so i can't help, but i don't get the problem here...

i mean, maybe it's my own experience that's clouding me here, but i have my phone kill data when the screen's off for more than 5 minutes and it turns back on when the screen is unlocked to save battery since i get a horrible data signal in our building here at work, and whenever i get an MMS i get a notification for it that pops up over my lockscreen (sms popup in market) and i can press the notification to get the MMS immediately.

i get a lot of MMS daily due to my job, our guys have to shoot me a lot of pics through the day and i never had a problem of receiving an MMS while my data connection was off, i run a clean JB build on my phone, been using Codename Android for a while and it works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Guiding.God:
Perhaps you could use tasker and set a profile to turn on data for mms send/rcv and turn it off when its done. I have tasker but I don't use MMS at all but as deep as that program is it can prolly do this for you, no harm in giving it a shot. If you need some help with setting up that profile you can shoot off an email to the dev. In the meantime I'll see if I can manage setting that up myself (new to tasker so not very adept at setting up deep profiles etc :) ) and post here if I find I can get it to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mac231us:
I have asked this same question. For example on Samsung devices there are pure MIUI ICS and JB beta roms having this but the moment they blend TW touchwiz and MIUI in hybrid ICS roms the feature even if present does not work. However, Touchwiz Android 2.3.6 yes the lowly Gingerbread ROMS have this (not explicit option) but it does it..that is auto data on off to send receive mms but no explicit option as in MIUI to actually turn that option on/off. So it is there..have asked so many times...nobody knows (talking about developers) or no one wants to do it or both. I posted on the CM board (like anyone would even bother with my request..so much sophistication so much stuff folks are working on...but this)

problem i see is where the developers are..if they are overseas Europe or Asia they do not have much interest in it as they do not seem to do much mms...as say compared to U.S.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jventura:
Hi there,

I have the same problem as described here! If I receive an MMS with my data connection off (which is always off for battery performance reasons), i don't even get notified that it was received. Even worse, the phone does not sleep after that, and draws lots of battery during the day, until I reboot it.. This happens to me in cm9 (ICS) and cm10 (JB).

In cm9, I have submitted a patch (see review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/18409/) which, instead of turning data connection on to download the contents of the Mms (which was already in the code but ICS and JB can't do), it just desists and frees the lock. Basically, if you don't have data connection on, it informs you that you have an mms to download later. At least it does not suck my battery anymore..

I don't know if this happens to everyone who have their data off, or is dependent on APN settings. Still couldn't figure that out!

I'm on CM10 (SGS2), and searching for a fix for this problem, your posts describes exactly my problem. If data connection is off, and I receive an MMS, I do not get a notification, and it drains the battery, until I do something. Did you find any solution for this?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Overlord Yuri:
Is this feature still present in MIUI v4? Last I checked it wasn't. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ouzo:
Hi,

I don't know if this will work on the Galaxy Nexus, but as it is a Samsung device......maybe.

I have a Galaxy Note II and I have the same problem with MMS on a stock Touch Wiz Jelly Bean ROM - until now every smart phone I've had will connect automatically to send or receive MMS messages even if data is disabled. Not so the Note or Note II!

For me, the fix was to add this line to my 'others.xml' which is located in the System/CSC folder.

<CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>true</CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>

You need to add the above string before the end of the xml file - the last two lines of it should be:-

</FeatureSet>

</SamsungMobileFeature>

Some people don't have an 'others.xml', they have 'Features.xml' or 'Features_Default.xml' instead.

After editing the xml file, you need to change the permissions back to rw--r--r--

After setting the permissions, reboot.

To make these changes I use ES File Explorer and its built in text editor (it's free).

Needless to say I hope, your phone must be rooted to edit the above file. Make a backup of the file before editing it.

OUZO SOLVED IT!-auto data on/off mms send/receive only on CM9/10 MIUI not the TW MIUi

the TW mIUI is what comes from MIUI folks (official or sometimes called unofficial)

only the cm9/10 based miui roms have this feature even though cm9 and cm10 itself (except cm10 after early november) themselves never had this feature..go figure !

and the old GB TW roms had this by default..the 'advanced' ICS and JB versions do not..RIDICULOUS !

I searched for a thread like this instead of starting a new one xD

Well, this issue about mms is a serious one to me, because i use this service a lot.

I am using Paranoid Android right now, but just a week ago i was with the CM10 (4.1.2).

With the CM10 it was possible to auto-download mms, saturday i tried PA2.99 (4.2.1) and now i don't want no other rom than this.

First problem i noticed was this issue about mms. I tried extracting the "mms.apk" from the last nightly of CM10.1 (4.2.1, to make the compatibility of the android version) and installing it to my PA-rom, but it's no use.

Now i want to ask: is anyone here able to look for the part of the code that differs from this 2 rom and lets the auto-download of the mms?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Minato04:

does anyone know how this fix—modifying features/others.xml—can work on the CM 10.2 nightlies? the CSC folder is TW-specific, correct?

as i think people have said, CM 10.1.2 was able to autoconnect just fine. perhaps it's one of the features the CM team appears to be reevaluating. i agree with the sentiment that this feature is worthy.

May not work becouse the zip is made for Galaxy Ace 2. Then you need to copy from different flashable zip working for you this files:

After that try to flash it on your device.
