Cool. Thanks...

So things goes like this... I have to download the file you attached + copy to SD card + using rom manager flash that= > CWM 2.5 recovery

Then again using the 2.5 recovery flash the latest radio file I downloaded. = > 3G working .. am i correct ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Don't use ROM manager, use your normal recovery.

Otherwise yes, that's how you flash a radio.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sreekuax:
Okay.. I did the flashing of latest radio file within CWM 2.5 .. One thing I can see is ..now I can browse through internet successfully.. but not able see/download anything from playstore...GPS/ MAPS not working... what about that ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Do you get any kind of error when you try downloading?

Does GPS only not work in Google Maps?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sreekuax:
Didnt got any error. Properly done the flashing....

Things which were not working before :

Internet browsing

MAPS

Play Store

things working after flashing the latest radio

Internet browsing ....

MAPS and Playstore still dont

regarding play store and maps: did you flash gapps when flashing CM7?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sreekuax:
Yes I did
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eventcom:
Hmm, do you remember which version? There are different versions for gingerbread and ics. If you have the correct version something might have gone wrong with the install. This looks a bit like gapps is the problem here...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dashingpc:
Hi,

I am looking for modified camera for SGS2 ICS UHLPS, where we can use volume button to focus and shoot pictures.

Could anyone help me with this. I tried to search but didn't found any.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehrectifier:
FWIW, before I get berated, I did do a little searching.

In any case, I'm currently quite low on my tab's internal memory, and I'd like to free up some space.

I'm running AOKP's JB, and I really, really like it. Prior to this, I tried CM9, which I didn't like as much for my tab as I did on my phone. In any case, with what I suppose must be 3 ROMs (stock, CM9, and AOKP) now, along with some backups, etc., I'm really running out of space!

I tried deleting some of the backups I thought were unnecessary, and browsed files & folders for junk to remove, which amounted to very little.

I recall, previously, when I was using CM9 and adjusting my settings that most of my internal space was being used by "miscellaneous," and that within "miscellaneous," CWR was by far the biggest culprit, using, IIRC, more than 2gb. I figured it must be the backups I had made. However, I only have 2 backups left (that I know of), and now that I'm running another ROM I see that I have even less space remaining. I have also noticed that when I have flashed a recovery, EVERYTHING is recovered. I have also noticed the availability and accessibility of some app files & folders from previous ROMs. Thus, I imagine that all of the files & apps are potentially still stored on the device, and so I believe this is what is taking up the most memory.

Since I'm happier with AOKP at the moment, I would like to remove CM9, and the stock ROM as well. My only concern and question (besides how to go about this) is with regards to my latest recovery. Can I safely remove everything with regards to CM9 and the stock ROM even if my only other backup is into one of those ROMs?

Finally, how exactly do I go about this?

I'd be glad to reward whoever takes the time to help me understand and get through this via a PayPal "donation." The more detailed and thorough, the easier it will be for me to understand, as I'm obviously a noob; and this will also go a long way in how I measure the reward.

Thanks in advace!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuoggy:
Whenever you installed the rooms, did you first wipe the system drive of old data/cache?

You shouldn't still have the old system files on the drive.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehrectifier:
I did at times, but perhaps not every time.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehrectifier:
When I go to System Settings > Storage - it shows that for Internal Storage, the Total Space is 4.59GB, of which is used:

Apps 394MB

Downloads 204MB

Available 851MB

I've noticed, in the past, and with ICS, there were more categories listed here, as I made mention above regarding the "Miscellaneous"category where I was able (in the past) to notice that much space was being used up by CWR. I don't know why these aren't being displayed anymore.

It seems to me that more memory is being used somewhere, and the system isn't telling me about it - Perhaps because it is partitioned off for one or both of the other ROMs and, so it is unaware?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuoggy:
in order for most of the roms to work without bugs, you would need to have cleared the data/cache.

I'm assuming you have the 16gb tab?

Furthermore, backups can be up to or over 1gb each.

I don't know how much media you have, but I noticed that pictures were taking up a huge part of my storage, so I got image resizer for windows to compress them. It went from about 3gb of space to a couple hundred mb (sorry if this doesn't apply to you).

The ROMs are also different sizes depending on what is packed with them. For example, there's a 200ish mb difference between my stock rom and Ice Cold Sandwich (AOKP).
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehrectifier:
Is it possible to do a retro-wipe of the data/cache for the previous ROMs, or will it wipe the data necessary for my current ROM as well?

Also, what exactly does this data/cache entail or include, in case I would like to try and preserve anything beforehand?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuoggy:
If you are installing the ROM through CWM, one of the options is to delete the data and to delete the cache. This will basically wipe the device, so it's a good idea to do a complete backup and copy it to your micro-sd card or computer before you do this. I would also recommend getting Titanium backup for your apps (the pro version is worth the $6, trust me, it's saved me hours).

Now having said all that, an 8gb drive is really small for a tablet that you are going to use a lot, and I promise you will continue to run into this problem no matter what you do. I would highly recommend grabbing a 32gb micro-SD card. You can pick one up on Amazon pretty cheap.

Once you do that, you will be able to move the apps to the SD card. I recommend Super Box for this, it's not necessary, as you can do everything within the app settings, but it has a nice intuitive interface, and it quickly shows you which apps you are able to move.

In all honesty, I wouldn't do anymore ROM installations until you have a big Micro-SD card so that you can make sure that everything is backed up.

I hope I'm helping... :cowboy:
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehrectifier:
In all likelihood, I did do the necessary wipes since I haven't run into any problems flashing.

While I do only have 8GB of internal memory, I do have a 16GB external SD card. Also, I have no media stored on the internal memory.

I do have titanium backup pro, though, I've never bothered learning to use it because I didn't really have the need, nor know what I should use it for; now I think I am beginning to understand - as I have just started flashing ~1 month ago, and the reinstallation & reconfiguration of certain apps and settings is becoming tedious.

In any case, I realized that my latest backups were being stored internally, rather than to my external SD card. The only way I can seem to manage to do a backup to my external SD card is in CWM Recovery mode. Perhaps, I'm overlooking an easier way within the CWM or romtoolbox apps?

I now realize the primary utilities of both tools, as well as titanium backup which I will begin to familiarize myself with ASAP.

OTOH, I do still have this current issue of limited memory, even after I deleted all backups stored internally, and wiped my data, cache, and dalvik cache a few times each. I also realize that my apps consume some space as well, and I will try out the app you mentioned since I have been unable to move any of the apps over to my external SD card. Albeit, I had only downloaded just a few apps with the latest ROM I was running.

Nonetheless, and despite taking the aforementioned steps above (performing the wipes & deleting backups) , I'm still missing about 3.5GB of space, which I assume is partitioned off and being used by the other ROMs? How do I access this space to remove all of that data?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] am05mhz:
just an idea, never done this my self (i'm also a noob :D)

if its about partition, i remember there is an option to repartition a device on odin

by what i have read about that option, i get an understanding that odin will recreate the whole partition table, therefore wiping your partition clean and create necessary new partitions

i also think that not every ROM could be flashed through odin, so i think you should flash stock odin friendly ROM then reflash your favorite ROM

then again, this is just an idea, not sure if its applicable
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3113owner:
You should flash the stock rom using Odin then reroot and reflash the custom ROM again. I have never had ROM space issues.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotundjere:
seems you have p3113 with only 8GB on it.

mine have p3100 have 16GB internal storage, and other version have 32GB storage.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuoggy:
I would second this. I'm not sure why you would be having space issues like this.

Just make sure that before you do the ROM installation, you do a full wipe in CWM. This should take care of any partitioning issues you may have.

After that, just make sure you have your apps, backups, and extra media on the SD card.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehrectifier:
Dang. This is what I was thinking about doing yesterday, only I was hoping there was an easier way.

I will have familiarize myself with Titanium backup, and it looks like I've got a good reason to do so, now.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewindowsfreak:
I have the same issue. I am running AOKP JB Milestone one and it says's I have a total space of 4.59GB. So I am also wondering where my extra GBs are located. When I installed AOKP I made sure to wipe everything and deleted all apparent backups, I even formatted the SD. So where is the missing space?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewindowsfreak:
Alright, after fooling around and doing a fresh install of AOKP I have learned the following.

As you can see in the screen shot above I appear to only have around 4GB usable for apps, movies, etc. The "missing" GBs are reserved for system files which as you can see barely use any of their reserved space.

PLEASE HELP VOTING FOR THE FEATURES I COMMIT!

Current CyanogenMod has some bugs and limitations which I try to resolve. Some solutions were found by others. Some solutions I found.

I also try to put more features into CyanogenMod's kernel. So there is no need going for another one.

You want to see a new feature in CyanogenMod?

If you want to see a new feature in CyanogenMod please let me know. I only handle new kernel features at the moment. If you want to see new governors or new IO schedulers for example let me know and I will push them into the official repositories.

Approved commits

- Change Ic8722ac5: Added scripts to extract proprietary files to comply with the CM9 tutorial

- Change I7fc7c517: Fixed overclocking Power HAL module

- Change Ia93c111a: DPLL_CORE_M6_OPP100_RATE should be 266666666 (Ezekeel)

My patches for CM10

Here are my contributions listed. My changes will eventually arrive in every CyanogenMod based ROM. If they are denied to the official CyanogenMod kernel I might still include them here in my ROM. Note that I might discard the denied features at any time.

If you like my work feel free to buy me a beer. (Belgium has so many beers I'd like to try)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djjonastybe:
Thank you. I added them as a reviewer.

Have you actually built the CM10 source? I am really confused on how to build it. I start screaming at the part with the proprietary files because there is no extract-files.sh

I have put the binaries in the correct folders like I did with AOSP ROMs but I get a boot loop at the bootlogo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andQlimax:
in the past i built cm9 using cm wiki here

I guess it should be something similar for cm10 (apart from the branch to be jellybean of course)

i don't know to much details anyway
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djjonastybe:
I used that one as a reference too, but this section is not applicable to cm10:

Copy Proprietary Files

So I was hoping for a workaround like this:

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32731-how-to-get-the-proprietary-files-for-cm10-galaxy-nexus/

But I think there are erros in the guide

local_manifest.xml should be:

then a repo sync and you will have everything. but it doesn'T seem to be working.

Then again I took the latest proprietary files from google as well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
me too...same problem mate..try with THIS,is made by a guy (not found nick).It's for gsm maguro,if anyone want to use that on others gnex variants,some modifyes are needed.

after searching a lot,it seems that the extract-files it isn't available for cm10 yet and it doesn't sync with repo.place that in coreect folder and run it like every official scipts.

This,is the problems that i have from a month..tried without that,but build compile but don't works (same problems,no boot animation,and stuck at it.phone seems powered off)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mbh87:
there wont be a extract-files.sh in CM10 because it was changed to generate-packages.sh I believe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djjonastybe:
generate-packages.sh looks like it.

I will try extract-files.sh as well. Together with:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_maguro/blob/ics/setup-makefiles.sh

We need the stock OTA package and place it in the same dir as generate-packages.sh I think

We need this zip: yakju-ota-398337.zip

Googled it but no dice

btw: the 3.0.39-3.0.41 patches have been rejected already. Still no response for the real hotfixes yet

I can't remember exactly where and which thread it was. It was something about cm taking ezekeel's colour implementation and changing it to work with cm's built in colour control. Problem is if you flash ezekeel's kernel or Franco's kernel or morfic's trinity kernel which is based on ezekeel's original implementation the cm colour controls stop working. Ezekeel, franco and morfic had quite a conversation with the cm team. I don't know the exact terms a kernel developer uses to describe this "kernel tweaks" thing. But I think yea u get the picture. It was a very heavily debated issue. I should not have probably even mentioned here. But I felt that you should know.
