Go to recovery and under storage option select partition sdcard or you can use minitool partition wizard if you want to do it through PC

after trying both from recovery and pc the recovery in my phone dosen't mount se-ext partition so what i gonna do now?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] mmk.dr:
Change the recovery. You must be using CWM. Try TWRP. Works wonderfully.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] tofanpc:
follow this steps from here:

2. Prepare your SD card, using MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition,

a. move all existing data on the SD Card to your PC and delete all files from it. RESIZE your existing FAT32 partition to a size where your unallocated space is at least 1GB but not more than 2GB.

b. Create a new ext4 Primary partition using all the unallocated space.

c. Apply changes

(I've written RESIZE in CAPS because when I tried deleting and creating the FAT32 and ext4, my phone didn't recognize the formatting as valid. So I allowed the phone to reformat the sd card and then did it using resize FAT32 instead)

Now, I'm not familiar with this particular device, but I'd suggest either finding a forum for that device (or its similar devices) and trying that... oooorrr it's just possible that this device is too "rare" to have much support (and thus custom roms developed for it).

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barius:
Sorry for posting here. I know this should go to Q&A but not many people go there so I decided to post here.

I've got a weird problem. Today I changed my rom from epinter's CM10 to Th3Bill's MIUI.us 2.11.23. After flashing the rom and Options Chooser, the phone rebooted without much doubt. Then I found out that most GApps were missing, so were the music players.

Thinking it was a installer issue, I updated to Th3Bill's recovery v1 but the problem persisted. Then I looked into my /system partition and noticed it had 0/310MB free space which caused the installation to fail. Are you guys all have the same /system size as I do? How can I make it bigger so I can put a few more apps in it?

Did a few searches and nothing valuable found, I decided to post a question here. Any response would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!:laugh:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Izy:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heyitsmeyo2:
Hi all, ive had my Tmobile samsung galaxy s2 for awhile now, and i finally decided to root it (and did it successfully) a few days ago (yay)

Ive done a bit of research for what I can do while rooted, basically after CPU setting, save battery life when idle... Simple things

But ive been meaning to try flashing a ROM. But I want to make sure i know absolutely everything needed to know to flash one. I had a samsung tmobile sidekick that I was able to root and flash Gingerclone on, but I remember it had alot of little details while installing that simply missing one could seriously screw up your phone

So first off, if anyone has had the sidekick: Is flashing/ installing roms as complex on the sgh-t989 as it is on sidekick 4g?

And secondly... After rooting my galaxy, i no longer have the stock android recovery (obviously)...... Instead it is replaced with CWM-based recovery (i think 5.0.2.2?). Is there a difference between this and Clockworkmod recovert (which should show an orange screen)?

I wanted to use ROM manager but opted not to when it told me that I "needed clockworkmod recovery installed" to work.

A little help, please? :)

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] XxSHaDoWxSLaYeRxX:
There the same
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heyitsmeyo2:
Okay, great! Glad it was so simple lol.

Now about my other question... Let me explain. When I would install a custom ROM on my sidekick, i remember having to do all sorts of things like unmount system/ unmount SD card before installing and remount them after (i dont remember the exact methods... Dont quote me on that).

I know the general procedure of basically Wiping data, Wiping cache, Wiping delvik cache... But does the galaxy s2 require checking of all of that unmounting/mounting?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] realtalker:
Flashed many roms, and no need for all that. Just make sure you wait the 10 minutes after flashing a rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] badaphooko01:
FlaShing roms on this phone is so simple "that even a caveman can do it". I would also advise to ditch clockwork recovery and install twrp, also never use rom manager to flash roms. Just follow the op's instructions on what steps to follow to flash the rom successfully. Also no need to mount and unmount anything. Good luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heyitsmeyo2:
Awesome! Thank you all for your replies, glad to here that flashing is much simpler on this phone

I really wouldnt recommend anyone rooting a sidekick as a beginner. It was my phone, i soft bricked ot my first time. Ugh, it was such a hassle! And it left me a little traumatized to try anything on this. lol!

Thanks for all the help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] drakulina:
Here are the genreric steps to follow to flash a rom (and yes, TWRP is recommended instead of CWM):

- place the rom zip on the internal storage

- place a copy of the radio zip that you have on the internat storage (for safety reasons)

- copy Google Apps zip if it is not included in the rom (most roms do not have these included, but the dev might provide a tuned version)

- reboot phone and enter the recovery menu (hold vol up + vol down pressed while booting)

# In recovery mode

- wipe data

- wipe system

-(Use Darkside Super wipe if still on cwm 5.0.2.7 or below)

- flash rom

- flash gapps (if missing from the rom)

- wipe cache/ dalvik cache.

- reboot and wait 10 mins

- reboot and wait 1 minute

- enjoy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Falco:
If you are planning on flashing a Rom on your phone of course twrp recommended and you should definitely try Jedi mind trick x2 for the t989 Hercules. It is the most stable Rom on the Samsung galaxy s2 T989 T-Mobile. The instructions above are the best instructions you should follow. And read it carefully or you will brick your device. If using twrp follow the twrp method. And if using cwm make sure you use the extra cwm steps. It is super important you follow them unless you want a fancy paper weight.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TomThom:

Hey gents, I am looking to upgrade from my Xperia Ray some time in January or February and I am hoping that some of you guys can help me in narrowing down the search. So I compiled a small list of wanted features.

WANTED

Medium sized screen (4.3 inches or smaller)

Enough RAM to support android 4.2 and further upgrades (2gb or 1gb)

Dual or quad core for multitasking

Android system

Reasonable price (below 400 euro) - preferably less expensive

Do you have any suggestions? I am pretty open to any OEM.

I think you misread my post :) I am looking for a phone with a 4.3 inch screen or smaller. I dislike the huge phones and thought that it looked completely ridiculous when I saw a guy with a Galaxy Note 2 in the metro today.

But the Nexus 4 could be a phone that made me go for an exception. I have had a sweet eye on this phone since the start of November. I am just a bit thrown off by the size of it. A screen with 4.7 inches is not possible to be operated with one hand for a guy with medium-small sized hands.

The Nexus 4 is tempting, but I dont see it becoming nearly as cheap in Denmark as on Play Store anytime soon :(

Xperia S seems to be a nice phone, but it seems to be slippery because of the back and the shape. Also it looks a bit wierd with the huge attachment to the bottom.

This could be extremely bad for Sprint. Ericsson is building Network Vision as well as entirely managing Sprint's network.

The problem is that Samsung owns essential patents in the LTE patent pool. Patents they can use to counter-sue Ericsson for the exact same reason.

This is a patent war that is extremely dangerous for both carrier and subscriber. But with Ericsson now running Sprint's network, it is particularly scary.

Yes it is possible but it may not work properly as even the same phone model can have different components and there can be other factors that tie some parts of the software to an exact phone.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Starchini:
Greetings.

I know this forum can get quite annoyed with posts being repeated and the same question being asked many times over.

I would just like to say that I have searched this forum for the problem I have, however either the posts are beyond my knowledge or not directly related to my issues. If I have missed something please let me know.

First things first. My phone.

I have an International Samsung Galaxy S3

It is running Stock JellyBean 4.1.1 (O2 UK)

It has been rooted with Odin. (I only rooted because I wanted to use Titanium Backup). It has been rooted successfully for about 3 weeks.

I wish I could give the exact firmware and other figures but I can't access them on my phone.

The Problem

Today whilst working at my desk I decide to check my phone but when I look at it there is a message being displayed that states "Encryption Failed". There is some text saying that I need to factory reset my phone and then, below that is a reset button. I press the reset button, the phone reboots to exactly the same screen. I press it again... And again... And again.

Now it boots into CWM-based recovery. Figuring I don't want to screw this phone up further without finding out what the problem is, i restart the phone again. Now the phone just boots into the Samsung logo and then reboots and so the cycle continues.

I have no idea how this happened, it was so random and unexpected.

What should I do?

The good points

I can still get into CWM-Recovery

From reading previous posts I have downloaded Samsung toolkit but its well beyond my capabilities.

The bad points

I haven't a clue what to do

Having only just switched to android and learnt the basics about rooting, I really need some assistance with this problem.

Please, please, if there is anyone on XDA who can help point me in the right direction I would forever be grateful.

The one good thing about this is that I certainly will learn a lot more about my phone in a short space of time.

Also will the 'backup and restore' or 'reboot recovery' in CWM be of any use?

Thanks again.
