I see now

CWMManager from chainfire will not work, that's expected

ROMManager should work, even if it is rather built for phones with recovery partition I feel. Do not let it update the recovery when it asks to do as it will probably flash a full CM kernel (did not test)

To remove CWMManager from chainfire, just go to /system/app and delete the apk

As of your other issues with SD, they are not related to recovery, but probably to your encryption.

Does encryption work on stock kernel?

If all you need is root, try one of the root zip updates from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1746794

First flash your stock kernel, then from stock recovery flash the root zip file.

This will give you proper root without actually touching anything in boot partition abd you keep the stock samsung recovery

Then try encryption and let us know

@Phil

thanks for the LPX kernel, working great so far. i do have a request tho, would you please make a ZSLPQ kernel too? it is the latest Hongkong 4.0.4 ROM and i want to use your kernel instead of cf root, coz chainfire didn't make one :crying:

sammobile download link: http://www.hotfile.com/dl/171343243/7a93e62/I9100ZSLPQ_I9100OZSLPQ_TGY.zip.html

thanks in advance

I had a hard time getting back to stock. After a few tries I just used Odin again with the original ICS 4.0.3.

Uninstalling the CWM GUI left me without any way to get into recovery. Buttons didn't work. But I could still get into download mode.

I tested a few things and combinations and it looks like when I leave things stock, with just "Root_SuperSU.0.96-Busybox.1.20.2-S2-signed.zip" applied all is fine. No encryption testing done yet as I want to make sure of things but so far no issues installing or moving things to SD card or phone and back. I haven't applied all 25+ apps back on yet, not including games either, so I can ensure testing in between installs.

If I apply the MUG LD3 you made for me I get "out of space" messages when installing from internal or external SD card. Up until that happens I can install to either phone or SD without issue. This has been noted once or twice as a form of "brick" that can affect a ROM. So far using stock ROM has not had this issue but I'll keep testing/installing.

I tried to just use your signed zip on the stock image but had the same problem. Doesn't matter what I install first the "Out of Space" error pops up after a short time of doing installs.

With 16GB internal and 32GB external I'm not even using half my space after everything gets loaded.

Any chance it was just a bad compile or glitch in making the tweaked MUG LD3 ROM? I can try again if you post another.

Anyway, after a few hours of testing and re-flashing I'm off to bed.

L8r and thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phil3759:
I do not compile the kernel at all, only edit initramfs with minimal changes.

Give me a break for a few days and maybe remind be about it. I'll look at it again closer

Meanwhile, you could test deeply the stock original rom rooted with on of root scripts (link in signature). The one you used (superSU only 0.96 is perfect)

At least we can be sure stock ROM does not have that issue

[Galaxy S II Android Development] abhi2889:
Hi i don't know why but after installing the kernel, whenever I restart my phone I got the message, "security policy doesn't allow use of external sd card".. I have read some posts about encryption in this thread, can any one help me to understand?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phil3759:
Not sure that encryption works on custom kernels

Same for cf-root it seems from other users report, despite cf-root uses a fake insecure kernel
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phil3759:
I will be rebuilding all the kernels soon

I will also fill previous requests and maybe try the Note N7000

custombootanim will be included

Now, I opened a poll to let you choose if it should be touch or non touch cwm6

CWM6 non touch can be now updated to 6.0.1.3, touch will stay for now at 6.0.1.2

CWM6 non touch can be easily compiled from CM repositories

However, I am not sure the source code for the touch version was made available by Koush

That way, I can only add future touch versions if they get released in a custom kernel for the S2

Now that the koush builder fails on S2, note, i777 and similar phones, I am not sure we will see new touch versions for the S2 :(

If someone knows how to compile them or the source behind them, let me know

Meanwhile, let you vote so that we decide if I put CWM6 non touch or touch
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lancez:
Voted, none touch from me

[Galaxy S II Android Development] BrainOfSweden:
I'm not sure if this is is kernel related, but I'll post it here. FIrst I thought it was ROM-related, since I got it on Wanamlite and had never seen it on any other ROM. So I switched back to stock XXLSJ, but it's still there. I went for quite some time with XXLSJ stock kernel, but on PhilZ I get the infamous "Could not install on USB storage or SD card"-error. Unfortunately, I can't find any smdl2tmp1.asec files, so the only work-around is to unmount external SD card every time I want to install an app that causes this error. Since I have only gotten it with PhilZ kernel, I believe that it could be kernel related. It could of course also be hardware related, but didn't show until now, or a bug in the XXLSJ leak, since I've only encountered it on XXLSJ ROMs.

So, i have to extract modem.bin files from a modem.zip file and copy it to the .modem_bak folder (after creating .modem_bak folder)?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Can you tell us what the benefits or exFat are over the standard format (FAT32 presumably)

Also, I assume the SD card/external SD card would need to be formatted into exFat in order to make use of any benefits?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gutslit:
FAT32 (32 Bit File Allocation Table) is arguably the most popular file system in the world today. Despite its inferiority to current file systems, it is still in use today in many devices. exFAT is a proposed replacement for FAT32 that addresses many of its limitations. The main difference between exFAT and FAT32 is their maximum capacities. exFAT can theoretically be used for partitions of up to 64ZB but 512TB is the recommended level. In comparison, FAT32 has a maximum theoretical partition size of 16TB with 32GB being the more typical size.

It is not only the space of the partition that is limited with FAT32. FAT32 cannot hold files that have a size of 4GB or more. It might seem large for a single file, but if you frequently archive things like videos and high-resolution photos, 4GB is relatively small. exFAT does have a file size limit, but it is set at 16EB or 1 million TB; a value hundreds of thousands of times the current biggest hard drives.

One of the major flaws of FAT32 is the rapid fragmentation of files. This is because the constant creation and deletion of files creates noncontiguous areas of free space. When large files are placed into these spaces, they are broken into many pieces to fit. exFAT uses a free space bitmap just like other modern file systems. This allows exFAT to find contiguous space where the file will fit, thereby reducing the occurrence of fragmentation.

As FAT32 has been around much longer, it is understandable why it has the greatest amount of support from devices. Virtually all computer operating systems support FAT32 as well standalone devices like TVs, media players, and such. exFAT isn’t recognized by many operating systems, especially older ones, and is virtually unused in standalone electronics. exFAT may gradually be accepted as larger capacity cards begin to appear, but it is yet to be seen.

Something that is also worth noting is the limitation that exFAT sets on the number of files you can have in a given directory. It is set at just over 2.7 million files which is still a pretty large number. In comparison, FAT32 doesn’t impose such a limit. Instead, it is the number of clusters that limit the number of files as two files cannot occupy a single cluster.

Summary:

1.exFAT allows for higher drive capacities than FAT32.

2.exFAT has a larger file size limit than FAT32.

3.exFAT uses a free space bitmap while Fat32 doesn’t.

4.FAT32 has greater support than exFAT.

5.FAT32 doesn’t have file number limits while exFAT does

[Galaxy S II Android Development] shoey63:
So what about NTFS? Is it possible for android? Does it have 4GB limitation?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pdario:
As we mount SD cards via USB, it is good to mention this:

The standard exFAT implementation only uses a single file allocation table and free space map. FAT file systems instead used alternating tables, as this allowed recovery of the file system if the media was ejected during a write (which occurs frequently in practice with removable media). The optional TexFAT component adds support for additional backup tables and maps, but may not be supported.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phil3759:
yes, you can flash any *.bin file you put there, but be careful...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gutslit:
NTFS is Microsoft’s proprietary and preferred file system, replacing the more well-known FAT file system. It has many benefits over the latter such as improved support for metadata, and the use of advanced data structures to further improve performance, reliability, and disk space utilization.

Presently, only a few Android devices have full support because it is not enabled by default in most kernels. Now, with USB-OTG support in some high end devices, full read/write support of NTFS becomes very useful. Thanks to XDA Senior Member shardul_seth for his diligent research and posting of his findings, we now can have full read/write support of NTFS!

According to the OP, he compiled a generic NTFS-3G driver for Android that should work on all ARM devices with a fuse.ko module. Since kernel source is available for most devices, the driver can be insmod-ed into even stock kernels to give the required Fuse support. This is the latest stable version of NTFS-3G that has been time tested on Linux PCs. This should even work on non-ARM architecture devices if compiled with the correct cross-compiler.

As USB-OTG becomes more prevalent, it will become necessary to mount NTFS drives at some point. For further info regarding ntfs support check this thread :)
