wow, just flashed 20121220 and looks like the camera flash problem is fixed.

Before that I was just turning off the flash and restarting the Camera app. a bit of hassle but worked fine.

Also I installed URSafe Media redirector to get the Camera photos to go to my external SD. It takes more time due to the redirection, so if you are taking photos fast it won't work and you'll have corrupted files. It does work though. If I wipe everything I might just swap partitions in the vold/fstab file and run everything on my external SD card from the start.

__________

scratch that:

I just installed the directory bind app and it appears to be a good, working solution that I can bind to only one directory (/storage/sdcard0/DCIM/Camera to /storage/sdcard1/DCIM/Camera)

I did have to turn off directory verification in the prefs. to get it to work (took 5 minutes for me to figure this out). I can take pictures as fast as I want and they all show up in the external card (sdcard1).

While I do think that a user should look themselves before asking (or state that they did and are still having troubles). It isn't necessary to be an overbearing jerk.

I am a programmer and highly experienced Linux enthusiast, and I have troubles with this app. For one, the source and target are swapped (source should be the old dir, target the new dir). Even if I set it up correctly, I get an error to "enter a valid target directory." Personally, this app is a small convenience, and I just scripted it since the app doesn't like me.

Also, since it is issues with an app, inquiries and problems should go in the app's thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1410262

Edit: just for the sake of being nice, I tried mounting directories with the app again. Here is what was causing my problems: the app doesn't like it when using the /mnt or /storage folders. You HAVE to use /sdcard and /external_sd for the mount points. I don't see why it doesn't like the /storage folder, since the physical block is mounted directly there -- /sdcard /external_sd and their /mnt/* locations are all just links.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] thehumble1:
thanks for the tip. I did start having problems with the app not liking the links, though it worked great for a while.

I certainly don't have to be a jerk though I'm fine with it on this occasion. I've seen too many devs get frustrated enough to either quit helping, quit talking about helping, or just head off and play with their kids instead of dealing with threads full of stupid questions and meaningless responses. I personally think that anyone using the XDA app should be excused from searching since it's essentially useless on the app. Also searching in a long thread is also nearly useless since you already need to understand the topic and keywords to hit the right posts. The only real responsibility is to read, read, read.

Also, the app thread is for another device, so it is appropriate to have it here so as to not confuse the SGS II community with feedback based on another device. I could start a Directory Bind thread in the apps section though. . . okay just did:

Blaze Directory Bind app thread

I was going to just use a script to make the links, but didn't know where to do it since the dev/block/vold files are all blank or not able to be opened easily so I'm not sure where the script would go. 179:8/9 didn't seem to do it.

ROM review

Hello!

I am trying to help my friend install a custom rom and since I do not have physical access to the phone I have to make sure each time I make them do anything.

So could someone please tell me if there are any issues with the ROM ? I tried read some posts on this forum and saw that there are workarounds for flash problem and camera storage problem. Are the issues mentioned in the OP still present in this ROM ?

Any response will be greatly appreciated (and yes I will press the thanks button :) )

Dude, a quick perusal of this thread shows that not many are having issues. I just did a clean install of 12-21 with racings blue lightning swag, and CPU master pro (hint... profiles!).

This ROM is smooth, fast, and slick. I dont think the other Asop ROMs have been sync'd with upstream changes in a while. So this is a solid choice.

Also to keep your friend from issues. If he uses instagram have him disable hw overlays in developers settings, or else he won't be able to upload pictures on instagram. Of course this is only if he uses instagram..

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] mdneilson:
I didn't modify any vold files -- the proper tool is 'mount'. Just make a script that uses the mount command. If you never take out your sd card, then all you need is the bash command:

# mount -o bind /external_sd/** /sdcard/**

If you remove your card, or mount the usb storage, you'll need to remove the mount with the 'umount' command.

Does mount point swap break USB mass storage?

Sorry if this has been beaten to death already, but I'm wondering, does USB mass storage still work if using the mount point swap method? Anything else that might break if I do it? I'm currently doing the directory bind method for stuff like music, but having no really convenient way to move apps external sd makes me want to consider doing the mount point swap.

Hey guys

I looked through the past couple pages and don't think anyone mentioned a locked internal storage. I'm a noob at this phone stuff but I thought I'd share...

I couldn't store anything on my internal storage. At first I thought it was my camera, "Your SD card is running out of space. Change the quality..." message and such. So I got JB+ Camera, which works fine in storing the pictures I take to my external SD. But things like the screenshot capture couldn't write to ANYthing to my internal storage. I couldn't even modify files in my internal SD.

So it turns out I had a fixpermissions log file in the internal storage that was corrupt(??) and I guess the internal SD was set to read-only(??). Deleted the log file and things started working again. :)

-nevermind... The screenshots will save, but they look corrupt. 0 file size and I can't view them. The camera is giving me the "running out of space" error again. wtf...

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] mdneilson:
BLN is working 100% fine. Camera storage is still in the works on the CM side, but you can bind mount the DCIM directory to your external sd card with the Bind Mount app here on XDA.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Cirkustanz:
My jealousy for BLN and Chronus has finally overpowered me.

Initial response is favorable so far, but I have a couple questions:

I can't for the life of me find the setting that disables *ALL* haptic feedback. I've turned it off for sending messages, but it still triggers when I edit a widget and when unlocking the phone.

Also, what is the *DEFAULT* folder for ringtones? Yeah I can easily change it once by using es file explorer to just navigate to wherever I have a file saved, but this gets really annoying since ES file explorer will open up the directory to wherever ES file explorer is set to, or was last used...instead of the original folder. So if you use ES file explorer for other actions, you have to keep navigating to the folder...and apparently the folder for ringtones is different than notifications.

Notifications is /sdcard/notifications but what is ringtones? I have tried /sdcard/ringtone/ and /sdcard/ringtones/ but neither directory works...es won't create them.

Thanks.

That's from the T-Mo SGS2 forum, looks like they're experiencing much the same symptoms we are.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dr4stic:
This is my long term goal... trying to figure out what it'll take to get it added.

At the very least I wanna work the kernel changes into their official msm8660 git repo, that's more of a pain than anything else. The rest isn't too crazy.

I need to do some cleanup before I get there though:

Get their version of the melfas (cypress-touch) driver working with our hardware

tweak the device settings

move my base up into some git repo's

The other thing that may stand in my way is that I need to move my mom to another carrier and this is the only "spare" GSM phone I have, that happens to work on just about every 3G band out there. So I'll be losing this as a test platform unless I can find a new one cheap. However I suspect that I shot myself in the foot because with ROM's like these, people will be unlikely to want to part with them :)

Thanks Man! you are doing a wonderful job for this community and we all are grateful to you. And with a rom like this it is very true that it will be hard to part with us;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dr4stic:
cm updater is a (really) new feature, few days old. They're getting away from bundling ROM Manager. In fact, I should probably remove it from my build.

Problem is that it's really new and doesn't quite work right apparently.

I'll likely look into disabling it given that the official CM servers don't have roms for us (yet).
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] namaui:
I was reluctant to flash a rom so early into ICS release, but I'm really glad I did.

So far your build of CM10 seems really stable and I haven't encountered any show-stopping glitches. Besides the CM updater locking up (which can be disabled in settings), enabling the "keys notifications" causes the phone to reboot when receiving a text (or likely any other notification) while locked/asleep.

No volume issues, Chrome installed and is working well, and I haven't encountered anything keeping this from being a daily driver yet. Made a few calls and several texts just fine. Wifi and cell reception is comparable to stock GB, the camera seems to load up and snap photos pretty fast, and boot time is about 20 seconds. Haven't been able to get a good idea about battery drain, but it seems acceptable based on a few hours of use.

However, it is charging somewhat slower than GB stock with the AC adapter, but I think this is something I remember hearing about with CM where it will only charge at the 500mah regardless of what it's plugged in to. Can anyone else confirm this?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] mdneilson:
I think this was a kernel issue that got solved a few days ago... if I am remembering correctly. My mind is a little fried recently. :eek:

If you change the update frequency to 'manual' the notifications will stop. No need to remove it. Settings-about phone-cyanogenmod updates-check for updates.
