I don't know what to tell you there. Rom toolbox has a lot more options, but I think it does pretty much the same thing as far as how it handles backups and restores.

Personally, I backup user apps/data and misc data with rom toolbox, do a nandroid backup within twrp, then I wipe cache/dalvik/system, flash rom/gapps(some used to recommend a reboot before flashing gapps, but I have always done them together). Then you can do a restore from rom toolbox or titanium.

It usually doesn't take me long to tell if I like a rom better than what I was using. If I do I keep running it, if not I just restore from twrp and I'm right where I was.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trantacular:
My friend's Exhilarate is having some internal storage issues. I doubt this is due to the ROM (he's running CM10 as of right now) but his phone says that the internal memory is split into 2 different "partitions" and that each is nearly full. This is making it difficult for him to install apps as he is constantly running out of memory. Now I myself do not have an SGH-i577 and cannot tell what's going on, but I'm wondering if it's something fixable or maybe possibly ROM related?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
No idea, but I would connect the phone to pc, and back up internal sd then go from there. Probably format internal sd from cwm or twrp. If that doesn't work he needs to back step and figure out what did it. Probably tied to swap internal storage and external or installed s2e or something like that.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] headsupsevenup:
Jelly bean has trouble with SD cards in general, does it not? Wasn't it designed for phones with lots of internal storage (and usually no sd slot) like the Nexus series?

I would format a partition on the sd card (ext3) and use S2E to move the app data to the card.

Also, whenever I mount the SD as Mass Storage, the phone forgets all the ringtones I set even after remounting the card. Is there a way to stop that, or do I have to store my tones on the internal storage?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
I store ringtones on internal for that reason.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jstiel:
In this thread somewhere, there is a zip file that can be flashed to swap partitions with the sdcard that can solve this problem.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
Hey guys and gals just thought i would let you know where I've been for the last week I've been working on cm10.1 and its now working on the kernel and getting into the meat and potatoes of building the ROM now i don't want you to get to excited because allot of the phones that have our chip set aren't booting but some are and I've been taking the changes from the ones that are and applying them to our pone so we can hope that it will i just wanted you guys to know that I'm pretty dedicated to getting us the latest and greatest that Google has to offer and i can't wait to play around with it lol believe it or not out build is further along than the other phone I've started building for and it actually has a device tree in cm git if you haven't yet go find dr4stic and thank him for the excellent work he did putting out tree together. I'll keep you updated thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
ok guys ive updated cm 10 and pac running pa right now this build doesnt have the new govs but dont worry ive learned how to add them and will be adding them soon thanks and enjoy

Soft Keys?

Ok A buddy of mine brought over 1 of these and wanted it rooted so I I rooted it with the Blaze CWM. Everything was fine when I booted it back up. Everything worked fine so I powered down went into cwm & made a nandroid backup as usual then backed up the apps with TB all the usual stuff. About 20 minutes after I rooted it the soft keys STOPPED working. So I tried to reinstall the backup I made- Nothing, I reinstalled a Stock Rom-Nothing I installed the CM9-Nothing WTF is going on? How can I fix this?

What I tried to do:

re-install the backup I made- Nothing

re-installed a Stock Rom-Nothing

installed the CM9-Nothing

So I decided to try & install the Paranoid Android ROM I restarted then Re-Installed the Stock ICS & what do ya know the Soft Keys were working again. So that's how I fixed the soft keys if any1 runs into this issue
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
OK at the beginning of this thread you will find the solution. The problem is you need to use the i577 recovery all kinds of issues with the blaze recovery

But it's not booting I'll run another when i get home

new pac is updated and working also added some togles and pa prefs
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Spark1223:
Where is the pa prefs because I don't see them
[Miscellaneous Android Development] headsupsevenup:
I know we can't overclock yet, but would there be any danger once it's possible? Does the claim of 80% recycled material mean that there is possibly some safety issue or physical limitation in the materials that prompted them to underclock?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
Pa prefs still aren't showing up yet I'm working on this

The problem isn't in the material i believe this phone is just as solid as any the problem is in one file that Att has built into the kernel that limits the speed of the phone and when you change the clock over the specified speed it causes a memory leak that shuts down the boot process me and j3r3 have put allot of time into tracking this file down and now i have a couple of people looking into it including Thomas raines who just had a baby so it might take a while to get this thing oc however we are going to take it up slowly at first starting at 1521 khz just to be safe I'll keep you guys updated
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
Only the housing is made of recycled materials. I think they under clocked the cpu to help get the eco friendly rating, by reducing power consumption.

The text in vold.fstab is not the same in the stock ICS rom. Any information on how to edit this file to swap external/internal sdcards for the stock I577 ICS rom? I am rooted.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] yar2:
Internal/External SD swap

The text in the vold.fstab is not the same in the stock Exhilarate ICS rom. I have used the following changes but, while the internal storage is successfully directed the the removable SD card, the internal SD doesn't work -- the phone keeps "preparing SD Card/checking for erros."

#Internal

Original:

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 28

Changed to:

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/external_sd 28

#External (this doesn't work)

Original:

dev_mount sdcard1 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd auto

Changed to:

dev_mount sdcard1 /mnt/sdcard auto

Any suggestions?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MartyMantion:
For ICS:

# internal sdcard
{
storage_struct = cover, "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd","/mnt/sdcard/usbStorage"
ums_sys_path = /sys/class/android_usb/f_mass_storage/lun/file
discard = enable
}
dev_mount sdcard1 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd 28 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0 encryptable_nonremovable

# external sdcard
{
ums_sys_path = /sys/class/android_usb/f_mass_storage/lun_ex/file

Thanks for responding so quickly. I made the changes -- which was also swapping the sdcard/sdcard1 lables -- but the new external memory sill does not work. As before, the removable sd card does work as internal storage. I will try flashing the zip file you referenced.

Thanks again.

So I was going through my phone last night and I found a notification with lights that I thought I had disabled unchecked it and have not had a crash since.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
Yes. Got SDK set up downloading platform tools right now will be running logcat and dmesg later thanks to all who helped:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
I disabled that when i jumped all in on the 9th and have not had a single reboot/crash.

I also disabled NFC that is enabled by default since i have no use for it at this point and i noticed with the stock roms that it shortened battery life.

I managed to send some logs and the results of the partition and mount shell commands to Dr4stic.

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

You don't need to install all of that to get ADB and get catlogs and dmesg. ADB is just a few files.

I don't know what the min files are for linux as I have the full SDK installed on my linux box, but in windows you only need three files.

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/98336671/ADB.7z

You'll basically have to run a cmd promt from that folder unless you declare the path globally.

Thank you I got it working

it's crunch time!

Ok folks,

So, this weekend is busier than I thought. I'm going to be attending a "Behind the Myths" show tonight (yay!), but given that it's 4.5 hours away from me in Tampa, it's gonna consume my entire day :)

So, if we can do this organized, I'm hoping I can spend a little time on you guys tomorrow to see if I can get you an experimental build tomorrow and start narrowing down some of your issues. With that said, i need a comprehensive list of ACTUAL problems. Here's what I kinda have so far:

NOTE: for anything I ask for a dmesg or logcat, please do it soon after a reboot of the phone. This makes the logs fresher and easier for me to parse. Also, if you are submitting multiple logcats and dmesgs... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE label them so I can tell which logcat is for which bug. Also, reboot between bug logcats. I'd love them to be fresh and separate if at all possible.

1) Rotation. The phone constantly thinks it's off by 90 degrees or something? What exactly is the nature of the issue? If someone could post a video of the issue, that would be helpful. A dmesg and/or logcat while it's going on would be helpful as well.

2) WiFi: does it work for people? I remember hearing that it didn't work for people. If it doesn't work for people, then please grab me a fresh log cat and dmesg from immediately after trying to start and/or connect WiFi. Also, for this particular issue, i would REALLY love to see a dmesg and logcat from a working stock ICS install. So if you could.... go back to stock, reboot, connect to wifi, and then take a logcat/dmesg. Thanks.

3) Camera: I think I saw something about it not grabbing the camera every time and sometimes failing to open it? Try and reproduce that and please grab a dmesg/logcat afterwards.

4) Button Lights and Random Crashes: i already have a preliminary driver that enables BLN (albeit, a little buggy) for the blaze. i intend to use that for you guys, so hopefully that'll solve that immediate problem for you guys.

5) Partition layouts: I'm really sorry if some of you have sent me this and I just lost track of it. I've had a ridiculous amount of "busy" lately :( If you could, please send me the output of a "cat /proc/partitions" and "mount" commands... you should be able to run them like this: "adb shell [command I asked for here]"

If there are any more REAL REPRODUCABLE BUGS THAT AREN'T BECAUSE OF CM10, please let me know. But keep this thread readable, please. Coordinate your efforts. I am just one man, albeit a fine example of what a man should be... a man who has lept small buildings in a single bound...

Also, keep in mind that i don't have your phone, so some of these things are simply difficult :-/

Here's an odd request.... If someone has a spare one of these... beat up or anything, but in fully working condition, and they'd be willing to send it to me for a month or two... that might go a long way towards making this much easier. I'll return it afterwards.

Thanks guys, lets hope we can get this done. i'd love to get you on the official builds as well :)

The major issue is SOD (Sleep of Death) and Rotation. I never had any issues with Wifi. I have posted the logs in one of the posts on page 2. if someone can compile the logs into 1 zip.

Also one thing I've noticed in recovery under advance wipe dalvic when it goes to confirm wipe at the very bottom it says E:unknown volume for path[/sd-ext]
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
Bugs

The only issue with wifi is the MAC is not being detected properly and is being generated. I believe it is the exact same problem that the Blaze was having. Most users don't see this issue as they do not use mac filtering or limit their DHCP clients. It took some time to figure out what was going on, but first I had to shut off my MAC filtering which worked for a while, but with every reboot a different MAC was genereated and filled my DHCP client list. If I do multiple reboots in the same day I have to clear the DHCP client list on my router as it is reserving the IP for the duration of the lease (24hrs)

I have concerns about my partitions, I pushed so much shtuff to this phone that I'm not sure it ever returned to 100% stock.

I will try to get a logcat of the rotation issue.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] dr4stic:
Guys,

I didn't forget you today. I started my day trying to cook up a new kernel and ran into major problems. If you take a look at the official nightlies, you'll notice t769 hasn't had any since it's first one. This is because right after it got official, a patch was applied that effectively broke the kernel for both our devices.

I'm trying to work with these guys to possibly roll it back, or fix it all together.

I'm not happy about this.

On the upside, I got some good adb output from a lock screen of death.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
I was pretty busy yesterday but I did notice they were having some problems over there I hope it gets fixed soon. But since I turned off the notification lights I haven't had any crashes. Just the lock screen issue a couple of times.

If there is anything we can do to help just let us know.

How's that OC/UV working for everyone?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
Loving it
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
I've been running on 1.83 for 12 hrs of light to moderate use with -50mv on all freqs and have 49% battery left.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
This is my battery after ten hours running-50 mv on all freaqs
[Miscellaneous Android Development] headsupsevenup:
I've got 49% at 11 hours at 1.83Ghz without undervolting, so -50 gives about an extra hour!

I didn't undervolt because SetCPU and Voltage control were giving me different voltages, plus setcpu would crash when I scrolled.

SetCPU showed 700mV at 1.83Ghz and would go up as the cpu speed went down... but Voltage control showed 1350mV at 1.83Ghz and would go DOWN as the cpu went down. So I have no idea what's going on.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
It's set in the kernel for 700 @ 192 and scales to 1350 @ 1.83. I'm using ROM toolbox to set my freqs since it will adjust all at once, though it is inverted (checked against 2 other apps) and voltage control to check my settings. I just set -100mv all freq to see what it does. Voltage control has a recovery that is supposed to allow you to set freqs back to default through cwm if it locks up.

Using CPU spy to see which freqs are actually being used.... we have 29 which actuality may make scaling take longer. Though different govs and different io schedulers may use different freqs. I'm currently using smartassv2 and cfq.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Spark1223:
Does voltage control work?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] j3r3goss:
It seems to. I can try to crash it to see.

I don't know how to tell other than what these different programs say the voltage is set to. I tried locking it into a freq and then dropped the voltage as far as it would let me and it never dropped out, so I'm skeptical if it really is working. I'll have to look into it further whe I get some time.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Spark1223:
Is there anyway to be sure? Anything else we use to check it? Or better yet, set it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ktempleton:
I've been using voltage control and CPU spy with ROM toolbox he said he would look into it and when it comes to this kernel j3r3 has become the resident expert over the last month so be patient and let him do his thing.. i believe it is working because i see a difference when i UV it gives me like an hour and a half more battery I'm already getting over twelve hours on a charge which has never happened
