Remove all htc drivers.

Install the latest one from htc.

Reboot your computer

Connect the phone and let the drivers get installed.

I hope it works.
[HTC One X] Vipin_C:
How can i remove all htc drivers, i know the device manager approach. But read sumwhere that these drivers are some times stored in system and same reverts when u connect the device..?
[HTC One X] exocetdj:
They have done away with usb mass storage in JB and gone to MTP storage. A decent work around is to mount with CWM recovery or TWRP recovery

Also this has been discussed before mate

[HTC One X] Vipin_C:
I removed all drivers from device manager, then using htc sync installed the latest drivers HTC Driver Installer 3.0.0.021,

Then rebooted & connected the device.. But again same error of MTP..

I have an image of it.

I was just wondering if there's a way to the MIUI MMS app to work with CM10?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asd87:
Thanks for all the views but not one person can answer this??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Have you tried to see if it will work? Download Miui ROM and pull the MMS.apk out and push it to your system/apps, set permissions and reboot. Then check if it works. I would think it would work because they are both AOSP type ROMs. But just make sure to have a back up just in case it doesn't work.

The flashable zip works on all galaxysl sys-parts script basic CM10

This simple gui allows you to swap the two so your larger "external sd" is mounted as "/mnt/sdcard/" and the smaller sd internal memory is mounted as "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd".

You can use the application and restart to apply the changes

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] LoLaTiOn:
Yes just change the installation script as to CM10 should cheat if the application does not install on the partition data

open the zip with winrar

in the assets floder you find both file edit with notpad++

vold.fstab.default and vold.fstab.swap

It can therefore be used for all other device but must be adjusted and injected into the application system

It is not the great development but I think this application should be in all customsrom as the issue of swap back often

Which is his usefulness?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] emilio666:
the main goal of the app is to provide a way to use the external micro SD (the one you put in the phone) instead of the internal memory, which has not enough room for many things. Useful for apps that use the SD card to deploy data (games, pictures, etc.)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] fastleo63:
Many thanks LoLaTion for your work!

I'm on CM 10.1 A9 (dhiru), and I have an issue: after memory swapping ang subsequent reboot, SMS messaging stopped working correctly.

In detail: if in a conversation there are 2 or more items (messages), and if I tap the conversation, I see the messages but after a second or less I'm forcely returned to the previous step (conversations list). If I revert SwapSD to default, at reboot problem disappeared. Why?

So, I'm wondering: maybe, if I swap memories, and immediately after that I wipe the phone, will I solve my problem? And when Master dhiru will release a subsequent alpha, what order do I have to follow, to install packages? First the ROM and then your mod/app?

My external memory: Samsung (Class 10) 32GB MicroSD.

Please forgive me if this is not the correct thread...

I'm running very fine with dhiru's CM10.1A9 and SwapSD; my external 32GB MicroSD is now shown as phone internal storage and I installed several apps on it.

Now actual phone's internal memory (shown as USB archive, 1,52 GB space) is entirely empty, and unused.

So, here are my three little questions.

CM10.1A9's 3.0.8 kernel supports swapping? I read somewere that isn't supported...

If so, there is a way to use the mentioned memory to create a swap space, thus increasing RAM amount? (I already know that it will somehow reduce memory life...!)

Best practices/apps suggested?

Thanks a lot,

Leonardo.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cityhunter62:
Hello guys,

I've got a problem.

I've been following the following guide "http://www.link2sd.info/description" in order to create a partition with Minitool Partition Wizard and link/swap all my apps on my SD card.

So I've got two partitions on my SD card now:

- The first one, "kingston (F)" - 14 Go FAT32 which is where I store all my data.

- The second one, with no name, 780 Mo FAT32 which is used by Link2SD to link and install my apps.

So far, everythings fine, Link2SD is working as it should be.

My only problem is: the second partition (the one used by Link2SD) does not show in windows 7 explorer. It is not visible on my computer and I cannot access to the data on this partition. Which is a shame as I want to backup all these data, just in case. And I want to upgrade my SD card to 32 Go so I need to copy and move all this data from my current SD card to the new one.

Curiously, the partition on my SD card shows in Minitool Partition Wizard, it also shows in "ES File Explorer" on my phone, and it is also visible via Windows Disk Management program (but I cannot explore or access to it: it just shows as 780 Mo used separately, with no name, no letter).

Do you know what the problem is? Maybe I did something wrong when creating the partition?

Your help or suggestions would be very appreciated.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
You didn't do anything wrong, it just doesn't work that way. Windows 7 doesn't know how to mount the 2nd partition, because Android doesn't tell it to mount as a drive. It's like you're asking why you can't mount the /data or /system partitions on Windows 7

or can i just dirty wipe and wipe dalvik cache and im good to go? :)

thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbolivar:
Not sure about this particular case, but I'll tell you my approach is to *always* do a full wipe + format partitions and internal sdcard before flashing *any* ROM. This way I'm sure there's nothing old left (app data, config etc.). Using this approach I've been running many ROMs without most of the bugs users report (using XXLSA now), I think it's worth the time to reinstall and reconfig everything. If you don't need to keep old data and config:

1) Wipe data & cache

2) Wipe dalvik cache

3) Format /system & /preload

4) Format internal sdcard (make sure you save anything you need before)

5) Flash ROM

6) Wipe cache again

7) Wipe dalvik cache again

8) Reboot

(Not sure if 6 and 7 are needed, but I prefer to be a bit paranoid in this case.)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shyam:
I think it depends on which custom rom u r currently on & which one you are gonna flash..for ex: flashing Ultimate v5 XXLSA over Alliance v1 XXLS7 may not work..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad-Pixel:
I agree with you. If you perform a full wipe before to install a new rom, the probabilities of occur in some rom's issue (like FC or just a "simple" weird lag) are low. Tested personally.

It always better/advised to perform a full wipe.

In the end, you could do a nandroid backup of your last used rom, wipe everything, install the new rom, and then try to restore the data partition only. If you get some errors or general issue, you can easily full wipe everything again, and reinstall the new rom again... at least, you tried :)
