Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.1.1 touch recovery [2013-02-09]

TWRP already has a file manager but aroma file manager should work too. Most of the time when you install a new ROM you only need to do a factory reset.

Most Samsung Galaxy phones/tablets have integrated exFAT support as a kernel module. TWRP currently uses open source fuse exFAT module which is much slower.

I've made test by backing up in TWRP on SGSIII. Here are backup times:

TWRP's exFAT module: BACKUP COMPLETED IN 2571 SECONDS

Samsung's exFAT module: BACKUP COMPLETED IN 756 SECONDS

As you can see, Samsung's exFAT kernel module is more than 3 times faster.

So, may be developers will consider to switch to samsung's module on samsung devices where it available.

Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.1.1 touch recovery [2013-02-09]

We have made some changes since our last release to improve our exfat performance so that it is comparable to Samsung's modules. The biggest reason not to use the Samsung modules is that they are proprietary, device/kernel specific, & aren't available from other manufacturers.

Ok, lol. i'm no noob, but i sure feel like one right now. i've read the entire thread and i keep confusing myself.

How the heck do i mount USB storage. IE internal storage?

part of what i've read, and based on the option in "Mount" - "Mount USB Storage", has lead me to believe that i can simply connect to my PC and have access to the internal storage so i can push or pull files.

So i've connected it to my PC, smashed the "Mount USB Storage" button,...nothing happens...at all. lol! I can't help feeling that i've missed something, unless "Mount USB Storage" has a completely different purpose... Would that option be used specificly for ADB push and pull of files? or am i supposed to see the drive on my PC?

Cheers!

Jared - aka your friendly YouTuber

EDIT: so i've spoken with a few dev friends and got my answer to this. But i feel the need to say; i'm getting a little taken back by the deteriorating level of support for people that have questions and either don't get them answered or are flamed and told "search is your best friend" or "USE GOOGLE". Not everyone is friends with high level developers like myself, not everyone is an advanced user. many of the "flaming" seems to be directed to folks who have genuinely tried their best to search both XDA and Google for their answers and have exhausted all resources and patience, only to end up in an XDA thread, asking for help, and been growled at. What happened to community mind of this community?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] MikeChannon:
64Gb cards can be temperamental in the Galaxy SIII, but can work formatted to exFAT and without splitting into two FAT32 partitions.

I never succeeded in getting Clockwork Mod to see the card for backup and recovery although it did recognize the card, but would not mount it, format it or anything else. However, the phone itself would read and write to the card formatted in exFAT without any issues at all.

The latest TWRP / GooManager with the recovery script installed, both recognizes the 64 Gb card, exFAT formatted and mounts it for backup and recovery.

Mike
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sorg:
It's very easy to support.

mount command can automatically mount vfat/exfat volume by providing -t auto option or set type auto to external_sd mount point in fstab.

So, in general, you don't need to do anything special. Just mount external_sd in auto mode.

Actually, i've just replaced exfat-fuse utility with script and it works fine.

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 AM ----------

There is another similar issue i would like to tell:

It's better to mount internal virtual sdcard card by standard android's sdcard utility instead of linking. This will make correct access rights and won't make trouble when u will access files from android later.

I've tried it and it works flawlessly.

Is there a way to make custom font in .dat format used in TWRP?

I have two devices. On phone with 720x1280 resolution, font is ok, while on phone with 480x800 font is ugly as hell. I've tried Roboto and Bluehighway (the only fonts i could find for TWRP). Both are ugly, but bluehighway is a little better, so i'm using it now. But would like to make better font, or edit existing one.

Length is supposed to be a negative value. That's what tells make_ext4fs how much space to reserve at the end of the data partition when formatting so that there's a spot to store the decryption key if you choose to encrypt the device. That negative length value basically says, format the total size minus 32768 bytes.

I added the size issue to our github issues as per the OP and I'll look into it when I get a chance:

Fix Permissions

First, thanks for a great recovery!

When I run the fix permissions option in TWRP it seems to finish in less time than it takes me to blink my eyes. Makes me curious about its functionality. So I decided to first run it in TWRP followed by the fix permissions in ROM Manager (which typically takes a minute or so and you can actually see what its doing).

ROM Manager still had quite a few permissions to fix after TWRP was ran.

Any explanations why it runs so fast in TWRP and appears to do nothing at all or is it just me?

Siyah has the dual boot functionality in the kernel package itself and is independent of the recovery used on your device.

When you boot you get the dual boot options when the kernel loads. A custom version of CWM is used with Siyah to provide the dual boot management functionality. The easiest way to get to it is to go via the dual boot tab of STweaks.

Hi,

A question about Mass Storage support ...

I used to have 4ext recovery on my Sensation, and the one feature I really loved was the ability to give access to the SD card as a USB mass storage device, allowing full and fast access to the SD card without the need to open the device body to take the card out to put it in my reader.

Now on the S3, CWM didn't offer this and I lived with it as good as possible.

Just stumbled over TWRP and tested it, that is just a huge step forward (thanx for that !!) and since I read in the OP "USB Mass Storage code improvements", I hoped that would suggest such a feature is available.

Now I'm rather tired, it's late here, so maybe I'd just be better off heading towards my bed, because I just can't seem to find where to activate it, neither searching the thread nor in the recovery itself :confused:

Any hint greatly appreciated ;)

No, the screen just goes dark (does not turn off) while an operation happens - the operation is not affect in any way. All you need to do is touch the screen and it will come back on, no problems.
