Yes, please repartition! Maybe we could symplifie the partitioning with a cmd/adb script? A2sd should be also enabled, i used a long time firerats scrips :) (G1 forum) for that. (Modified and combiend with a nano usb-stick, hat fits under the protection, sd slot is free for review of camera Photos.)

Thx For the Good work will now try JB

I voted yes.

It would really piss me off to brick it, but it seems it can be fixed...so to be testers we would need a guide to repartitioning and adapted JB ROM to install and check!! :D:D
[Folio 100 Android Development] EnergyUK:
I cautiously vote yes, surely as long as fastboot or the recovery partition is not touched bricking is very unlikely.

I don't understand why we don't have the SD card partion as the... errr SD card? Am I being thick asking this? lol. I know that would then provide an unbundance of space on the system but it's not like SD cards are expensive now.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Akta77:
Hi,

As you stated, this is your needs. But this device has 16GB so let's use them! This is a perfect children proof device. My children are using it quite often and 1GB are clearly not enough for today's use. We can't break the device unless 1BL/2BL is reflashed. It's easy to build a noob proof recovery script to backup/restore partition table. It is as easy as fasboot boot whatever.img (i am working on linux port this way).

[Folio 100 Android Development] unrealmanu:
i like repartition only is extremly necessary
[Folio 100 Android Development] mblaster:
How about not repartitioning, but re-labeling the partitions. This might work with less risk than actually using a different partition table. I think it could work to mount the current /data as /system instead, while using /sdcard as /data (in Android 4+ this semms to be more or less the same, or at least it is on my other two JB devices). The old /system would go unused then, but it's only 256MB...
[Folio 100 Android Development] raptor92:
+1
[Folio 100 Android Development] Akta77:
This is a very good idea. Maybe those 256MB could be used as part of the swap memory...

[Folio 100 Android Development] roglio:
Yes if it is indeed necessary!

I vote YES because there is also a way to recovery the whole system in case of bricking (see: Full FLASH).
[Folio 100 Android Development] sader0:
Same as other users, ended up with full partition for install apps on newest CM10 release.

Any guide on how to repartition ?

On LG P500 this is possible via customs AmonRA recovery(which again i believe issuing scripted format commands - might be wrong) ....cant same be done on our device by adding new recovery options ?
[Folio 100 Android Development] taomorpheus:
I don't have any problem with repartition, but I think about users that simply put the .zip in sd and flash. I don't know that is safe for the majority.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Cable6P:
Is it possible to see youre current partition info like the size of each partition ?

If so, how ?
[HTC Sensation] noobvice:
Hello,

I have had a UK Vodafone Sensation for about a year and decided to get one that had been rooted to play with. I got it off ebay. It was really really good other than battery life ,,,, and then I spotted that the softkeys (the four buttons at the bottom of the phone) are permanently on ... unless I turn the phone right off.

When the phone arrived it had 4EXT with ICE and Sense and it was only come the evening of the second day I spotted why battery life was not good!! I tried various thing - Screen Filter, Juice Defender and other bits and pieces and then saw the AOKP Jelly Bean ROM and decided I'd start from scratch .. well almost. I'd also noticed that it said the phone type was Sensation XE.

I replaced 4EXT with CWM and flashed the AOKP Jelly Bean ROM. All went according to plan considering I'm a 63 year old noobie!! Well OK until I saw the softkeys were still illuminated all the time unless I turned the phone off. I'd got my apps and contacts on the SD card and installed the purchased version of APEX Pro that I'd been using on my non rooted phone. No amount of changes to anything I can thikn of turns them off ... but my phone does now say it's a SENSATION rather than a SENSATION XE.

I've run the battery flat and started afresh with it newly charged which has increased battery life but with these darn softkeys lit up it will never be good..

I have thought of taking it into a shop where they mainly deal with smashed screens all day long and see if it is possible to have the led backlight for the softkeys removed. I've looked at any amount of youtube videos and they all stop short of showing me the bit I want to see!! If the keys don't work afterwards its no drama as I can put 'Navigation' keys at the bottom of the screen from the ROM.

Any ideas anybody?? Your help and advice will be much appreciated.

[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
look here ..bit difficult ..but it might solve your issue
[HTC Sensation] noobvice:
Hi Ganeshp. I tired to install gscript lite when I was running ICS. I managed it this time by reading what it actually said to do!!! lol.

Unfortunately even though it seemed to install ok and I ran the scripts ok it wouldn't actually get fully running before saying it had stopped. It seems other had had a similar experience. I tried various reboots etc and it still wouldn't run which is a shame as it really looked like it was the answer.

Thanks again but unfortunately I'm still looking for an answser,

[HTC Sensation] icanttinkofaname:
Would it have anything to do with kernel setup? Just a thought. I don't know enough to actually advise you, but your led issue may be linked to the kernel.
[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
some roms have the option built in to disable the capacitive buttons backlight, by using tweaks. ViperS rom has it built in, or you could download LeeDroid/Darkforest tweaks in the dev section. theres an option in the tweaks to disable the backlight. give that a shot before having someone look at it
[HTC Sensation] noobvice:
Hello and thanks for the last two replies, I'll check out LeeDroid Darkforest tweak and it would be good is somebody could describe the Tasker method in this topic, We're off on holiday for 3 weeks tomorrow and will be taking my old faithful Nokia N95 so if this isn't sorted by tmw I'll go back to it when I get back.

Phil
[HTC Sensation] noobvice:
I've been trying a couple of things from elsewhere on this site and still no joy. Tried tasker and rootdim but still no joy.

I couldn't see how to download LeeDroid/Darkforest tweaks ... only saw the option to flash a new rom and I don't really want to do that. If I could download just the tweaks I'd be willing to try that but not the full package.

Tks again for your help ... holiday tomorrow and I think I'll have to leave this until after I come back.

Phil
[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
LeeDroid tweaks and Darkforest tweaks are both for Sense 3.6 roms. ViperS is Sense 4 so these wouldnt work with that rom, but tweaks are already built in to it

[HTC Sensation] gantavya:
Can't you just do that by going into android settings and setting the backlight duration to never. OR You can install Total screen control from Android market. Go onto settings> softkeys backlight and click disable backlight. Then you have to select a screen filter value at which to disable softkeys backlight eg. 50% value. Your phone's backlight should turn off when your screen filter value is set to 50%. You have to be rooted for this to work.
[HTC Sensation] noobvice:
Hello and thanks to all who have replied. I'm now back from holiday and have tried all the things mentioned in this thread and they are either not available for my phone or they install ok but don't do what it says on the box. I'm going to try the ViperS ROM now and see if the tweak it seems to have for turning on/off the capacative lights works.

Tks.

[HTC Sensation] Elemental_Fire:
Dear developers for the Sensation, I have a special request.

Could one of you please provide a flashable zip that contains the camera drivers for the HTC Amaze 4g? However, I've read that drivers are also in the kernel image of the particular device. If so, could one of you please modify a Sensation ICS kernel (if you are allowed to) to include the camera drivers for the Amaze 4g?

If you would be able to help with this request, I'd be able to try something, if it works I'll be able to provide a great gift for all the HTC Sensation owners here on XDA :)
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
This needs to be in Q&A not in the ROM thread.
[HTC Sensation] Elemental_Fire:
It's a request, not a question :) This is something that will most likely need help from a developer, most of which are here in the developer's and Roms section. That is why. I hope I didn't offend you :)
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
True but the rules state that all requests / questions go in the Q&A.

Developers do look in the thead as well and help out if they can. This thread is purely for Roms and Kenrels for users to downlaod.

If you have any questions look at the top stickied thread in this forum and it will explain the rules.

No problem. If you are not sure where to post, you can ask in the general or Q&A sections. That way if you find your thread should then be in the developemt thread you can ask a moderator to move it.
[HTC Sensation] Elemental_Fire:
I guess that is true, but sometimes it depends on the situation :) If this is something that I and other members of XDA can benefit from, I wouldn't mind posting directly into this section, considering it is a direct route to the developer(s) rather than an indirect route.
[HTC Sensation] Elemental_Fire:

A lot of us have been to this scenario, panicking at first, but a very good sign is that it will boot to recovery.

Download a nice safe stock Rom from samfirmware and flash using Odin. When your at that point, your phone is back up and grinning then you can cf-root and flash custom till your heart's desires, till you mess up again, then just start from the beginning again.

Good luck and let us know how you get on
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
If its stuck at the boot logo it is usually down to some corrupt data.

You need to be using odin to flash a safe rom. When it starts to boot long press power to turn it off, then boot into recovery and wipe data (even stock recovery can do this) then reboot again and it should boot fine.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Looks like it's stuck at wanting to install a OTA update maybe.

Try this:

Flash CWM recovery with root adb access (CF-Root should neatly do the job), once in CWM fire up a shell session via "adb shell" from the PC and run these commands:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11 bs=4096
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10 bs=4096
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 bs=4096

Then do a factory reset / data wipe from the recovery's menu and reboot

(what the above does: it wipes the OTA, preload and cache partitions)

[HTC One V] Lauri455:
Hi guys :) My brother got a One V recently and so far the biggest complaint about it is the battery life. Looking around dem interwebz I've found he's not the only one, so my questions are:

1) I know it is possible to unlock and relock the bootloader, but will I get the warranty back after relocking?

2) Since battery life is the biggest problem, can I expect any improvements on that matter on any of custom ROMs available?

3) Do we have any ROMs with everything working (Bluetooth, GSM, WiFi etc.)?

4) The phone was purchased in Poland, so the phone is GSM / PrimoU, right?

5) Is every ROM multi-language?

6) How can I backup the stock ROM without rooting the phone first?
[HTC One V] Lloir:
1) I know it is possible to unlock and relock the bootloader, but will I get the warranty back after relocking? NO (unless your bricked)

2) Since battery life is the biggest problem, can I expect any improvements on that matter on any of custom ROMs available? Yes

3) Do we have any ROMs with everything working (Bluetooth, GSM, WiFi etc.)? Yes

4) The phone was purchased in Poland, so the phone is GSM / PrimoU, right? correct

5) Is every ROM multi-language? i know the Cyanogen Mod one's are but i cant say for the others

6) How can I backup the stock ROM without rooting the phone first? Use a custom recovery after you unlock and do a "nandroid backup"
[HTC One V] Lauri455:
First, thanks a lot for answering my questions, but this one isn't all that clear for me, so: If I unlock and relock the BL, I don't have warranty, but if I "accidentally" brick the phone by doing so (BL unlocking or whatever), I still have the warranty? That doesn't really make sense to me :S

Btw: One V has 4GB of built-in memory, but on the stock ROM/kernel only 100 MB is available, does any of custom ROMs/kernels unlock the remaining space?
[HTC One V] sohamssd:
1st: actually, when you relock the bootloader, it appears as"relocked" instead of "locked". Thus the HTC guys can you tell that you had unlocked the bootloader. But when you are bricked, they can't even get into the bootloader, so they can't tell what you did to the BL.

2nd: that 100 mob is the RAM, not memory space.

Hello,

Has anyone else come across a issue with their phone in terms of media being on the phone but not being found?

For example I had about 900photos on my phone when it went back to Samsung , it came back un wiped but when I flashed a custom ROM after unlocking boot loader again the pictures where still there but couldn't be found in gallery same with music being there but not found in any music player.

The recognises there is data on the phone but doesnt show it other than through a file explorer which will then display / play music.

Just wondering has anyone else come across this odd bug ? And is there a quick fix? Screen shots included , as you can see storage doesn't add up neither does gallery.
