Ntfs is supported since ages
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smeet.somaiya:
But my portable hdd doesn't mount when I connect it. Also didn't find any option to mount it from Mounts and storage.

Am I missing something?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
amit.bagaria,

Your version seems very promising, however I am facing quite a big issue, when in recovery, I cannot use anymore ADB with it.

Reverting to previous Philz recovery solves the issue.

How can I provide useful information to fix this issue?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] amit.bagaria:
I am able to use ADB in recovery without any issues. May be you would need to update your adb drivers.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
amit.bagaria,

Thanks for your answer

I tried to update Samsung USB drivers and ADB drivers but no matter what, as soon as I update my recovery to your version I cannot use ADB in recovery and reverting to older version corrects the issue.

Do you mind sharing the drivers version you use ? I personally have installed Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones 1.5.43.0 and SAMSUNG Android USB Device Driver 5.28.2.1.

Philz Touch recovery 6.46.3 (n7100)

Updated to latest version 6.46.3

[MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION] : Can you please upload the attached file to your goo.im host?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] amit.bagaria:
Can you try with the newer version of recovery I posted above?

[MENTION=373710]others[/MENTION]: Can someone else try ADB and let me know whether this is generic / specific problem?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
done :good:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
amit.bagaria,

Installed but nothing changed :(

I get an unknown hardware GT-N7100 in my peripherals and cannot connect to it then. And I cannot find any driver that can make this peripheral working.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] andrew.mackew:
Is this switchable to n7105? If not, can you do that? Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] amit.bagaria:
I will give it a try. This will not work with N7105.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] peter.neilmann:
Definitely it would be great. Thanks.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] andrew.mackew:
Cool.. but, any chance to compile to t0lte also?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pillainp:
I am not able to flash the newer versions of your Recovery from your Recovery. I always need to do it via Odin.

Whenever I try to upgrade the recovery, it runs the file, but always remains at the current version.

Installed and toggled ext4 to f2fs migration. Tried formatting /cache, but error.

Going to reboot and post log.

The minimum size of formatting the partition to f2fs is 1GB. Your 'cache' partition size is less than 1GB.

black screen on recovery

I am using agni 4.2.2 kernel for kitkat 4.4.2 on DN3 version 5.2, recently i had converted to f2fs. it was working fine until i had an unclean shutdown. i think i had corrupted my /system partition or /data partition with f2fs with the unclean shutdown. i failed to boot the rom. i try to boot to recovery and i got a black screen and nothing else. Seems like the recovery fail to boot too. I had to odin older version of philz recovery that doesnt support f2fs and reformat /system and /data, then only flash back latest recovery works and i manage to restore my rom and my recovery. tested this with

version 6.44.9 and 6.47.3 both failed to start with a black screen if f2fs partition is corupted.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] andrew.mackew:
Thank you very much for that! :) Installing right now.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smeet.somaiya:
[MENTION=4084072]amit.bagaria[/MENTION]

Such a fatal bug in your recovery version 6.44.9

When I formatted /data in ext4 format it formats sdcard too.

Then why there is a seprate option if you want to format /data and /data/media

I thought formatting /data wont wipe my sdcard. But it did.

Very annoying. Now tell me how can I recover my 7gb of deleted important data.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] amit.bagaria:
Were you converting from f2fs? If not then I would request [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION] to provide his inputs (I didnt change his code).

/data and /data/media is on the same partition (with different mount points) and cannot have separate filesystem types.

Please provide detailed steps you followed (and recovery logs) to help find and solve the issue, if any.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
formatting /data only won't wipe /data/media

There is a special menu + double warning if it is converting from/to f2fs
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smeet.somaiya:
No I wasn't converting to f2fs.

I was just double formatting before installing a new rom.

I did clean to install a new rom

then went on to format /system /boot /modem /data from mounts and storage.

However I had intrupped thd formatting of /data by long pressing the power button because just for a moment I thought it would wipe my sdcard.

But later on when the recovery rebooted (because of long pressing the power button) the /data partition couldn't be mounted. So I went on to format it again from mounts and storage. Formatted it in ext4 format and flashed a new rom.

Everything went well except for the loss of /data/media :(

I am damn sure I didn't select to format anything related with sdcard except for /data

Edit: Here are the recovery logs

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ggkm5yatpaad8zn/Recovery_logs.zip
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Yes, sure, your tests and hints were very helpful. Pongster also had suggested a kernel issue. Thinking it was ok for dr.ketan I thought it was not on my side. But dr.ketan just confirmed his sdcard was fat32.

Anyway, I need a confirmation that adb starts as root.

I could add ntfs on my to look at list and eventually todo

I will try to mount external_sd as usb storage which is disabled by default in cwm for your data/media device

Thanks again
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
exFAT formatted SDCARD access test is a complete success :victory:

However, how can I test the adb start root access???
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Well, adb shell would be directly with root priviledge without the need to su or adb root commands
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
When not root, adb shell starts with a $. When root it turns into #
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
Phil3759,

Once in recovery, when I launch the following command:

d:\Priv\Android\Utilities\Android SDK>adb shell

I have the following prompt:

~ #

If I type SU, then I get

su

root@android:/#

Addition information, even if I am not prompted root@android, I can access /data/app-asec which is impossible to do if you do not have root acces. Therefore I would say I have root access.

Let me know if some more tests are needed :) And if you can add NTFS support for external_sd cards it just would be perfect!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Gillion:
The only problem I have with your recovery is that it boots slowly when using the neak 1.2x kernel.

I am running stock N7105 DLK7 rom on SGH l317 hardware.

When I use the stock UCA 317 kernel your recovery boots fast !

Ohh... and I miss the features you have in your S2 version... your S2 recovery is the best !!

And thanks for setting tar as default.

Anyway... I don't know if the boot tine (20seconds) for recovery is normal... especially whe using a custom kernel.... but 5 seconds is what it takes when running 317 stock UCA kernel

I do not have exfat cards... but I can get one soon to do furthere tests.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
thats confirm root on adb, otherwise i think it should $
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Yes, # is root. Great

For ntfs I would need a fuse.ko module somone compiles for one of the n7100 kernels to avoid vermagic issues again

I do not have time now to start compiling kernels so if some one has a module...

N7100 version is same as s2. It is even the only 3.65. S2 is still 3.63. What features are you missing?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] geovas77:
Upgraded to omega v8 without any problems, nandroid to my exfat worked without a hitch and so did the aroma upgrade process.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
I think pongster would be the perfect person for this point he is the appropriate one to compile a fuse.ko for his own kernel :p

Another point on this subject. To be able to properly load NTFS partitions, you will then require ntfs-3g binaries that you can get here, a thread I worked on with PROTOCHIP.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] nyarnon:
Now it would be nice to have ext4 support too :cool:

--

Sent from my N7100 with Perseus 27.5 Omega 8.0 CWM philz_touch_3.65v3 Thanks too the devs and teams.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pongster:
I build fuse into the kernel instead of a module. I reformatted to fat32 since I wanted to test my aosp kernel with cm10.1 :)

Can't wait for mount as USB storage.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Gillion:
Mount as usb drive. That is the one I miss.

And can anyone confirm that the recovery takes more than 10 seconds to boot up when using a custom kernel ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
I will look at mount usb storage as next step
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
Phil3759,

Can't you grab the fuse.ko (hopefully not integrated in kernel as pongster did) from the same source as you exfat modules?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pongster:
Stock Samsung source had fuse built into the kernel. The new fuse mounts, especially for cm10.1, are confusing. (To get Ext2Int working properly at least) :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
I do not think Samsung puts any fuse.ko module in their kernels. At least it is not in ramfs. You can look in your /system or /data folders to see if there is such a module, but I doubt it

In any case, meanwhile, I will first try to set it on i9100. Once it works, I can move to other phones and ask for modules. Do not bother with it right now as I have first to see if it is even feasible without a huge work
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
OK, no problem.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jitin02:
is it only me or this recovery dont like working with external sdcard ??? like backup to external sdcard/ install from external sdcard???
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] darni:
Did both of those last night without problems, several flashes and 2 backups. From external and internal sd both. Only problem was with new Perseus kernel which froze my phone totally, had to do full wipe to phone after that got stuck to omega loader after that with anything i tried, only full wipe got me booting to rom. Now using v r3 of recovery, Omega 8.0 and motomoto00 theme. All working fine.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Nothing in your logs

It could be that forcing a reboot during the recursive delete corrupted your /data partition structure

The formatting commands are safe and largely tested

[MENTION=4084072]amit.bagaria[/MENTION]

I noticed from the above logs that you altered the fstab with fstype set to auto

Please, do not modify things without asking or clearly understanding what you are doing

auto type is only supported on voldmanaged devices, not the regular partitions

either you keep your fstab untouched or you use the extra.fstab entries to set options for f2fs

Your current changes are bad
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smeet.somaiya:
Okay. I understand it corrupted the data partition. But how did it erase every single thing? If corrupted some data must have been there at least?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] amit.bagaria:
I was using 'auto' and posted that only. I will post the version without the changes to your original file. I believe this is the only 'bad' change. Any thing else you observed.

This 'auto' change I was using before you added support to full support of f2fs. My bad, I should have reverted the fstab changes.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
now that you wiped everything, you can test it your self: format /data

will never

format sdcard
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smeet.somaiya:
I didn't wipe everything when /data couldn't be mounted. I just wiped /data again.

Anyways, I think I should be extra cautious before using the new compiled recoveries by amit.bagaria

Thanks for your help [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION] :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] invisible77:
Is it working fine for N7105 / t0lte? Please let us know here.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] andrew.mackew:
Could you please, compile the new current version for t0lte? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] amit.bagaria:
Philz Touch recovery 6.47.7 (n7100)

Latest version (6.47.7)

* Synched with latest sources from Phil's github

* Reverted my changes to fstab, as pointed out by @Phil3759

* Added "f2fs" entries in extra.fstab, as suggested by [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION]

Hopefully this version is not as "bad".

Important Note: I would recommend to use this version ONLY if you have installed my previous versions.

For future updates I would request @Phil3759 to continue providing the official updates along with other devices he support.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
If you want to continue updating, I am fine

I do not plan to merge f2fs into the kernel 3.0 sources as it is a huge work to maintain later
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] andrew.mackew:
Could you please compile for t0lte? Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] MJiindal:
Ok I went ahead and installed this version of Recovery and then Flashed 4.4.4 - 29 june 2014 version today on AOSP Rom by Codexc. Although Rom installation was smooth, at the time of flashing GAPPS had recovery pointing out some binary issue and asking to update the binaries. gapps did got flashed /installed but through some old legacy script /binary. Can you please through some light on what was the error all about and how to get it solved.

Hi PhilZ, I really like your work and I'm trying to compile by myself to collaborate with you and make it available for other users.

As far I understood I need to set a CM-11 environment up to compile, but to do that, I need to extract blobs from my phone running CM. My main issue is, I don't use CM and was wondering if is there any repository that if I add into my local_manifest.xml would skip me to extract those files from my phone.

Could you please advice me in which repositories should I add?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
you don't need blobs for recovery

Hi guys, i need some help here

I downloaded the last version zip file and trying to flash from twrp (i need to change because twrp can't format my data partition....)

I downloaded the zip for n7100 because i have a note 2 international version BUT when i try to flash it fail because it says that my device is a T03GDUOSZN.....!??!?

I am totally sure about which device i own and IT IS a n7100.....

How to solve this problem? I know i can flash through adb but this confusion about versions scares me.....

Single sim. It's the normal international gt-n7100
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] zscomp:
Check your build.prop

You ll see a line about your device.It says T03GDUOSZN or T03G;

Try to change/save it and install the zip again.

I cant check the zip right now to be 100% sure if this is the case, but you can try it.

You wont loose anything :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] spitjo:
ro.build.product & ro.product.device says T03G

EDIT: I had a look to the updater-script and it is correct. It pulls those 2 props and check if they are t03g or n7100.

Since mine are t03g i can't understand from where that product code come from....

Maybe the twrp recovery is altering some build props while it is running??

Hello

Currently philz 6.48.4

After all why should a starter go to the menu and press the Mount sd card ...

If you do not, you have problems still have sd actions ...

Is there a solution to avoid the press after every boot mount sd?

Thank you ...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] amit.bagaria:
It takes time to mount because recovery checks for errors before the card is fully mounted. It may take longer if your card has too many files.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] szunyi77:
Thank you .. Before it was Galaxy SIII device and although it is the Philz recovery .. There was no such problem.

And there is another problem, but it can not be excluded at present .. I use the Agni kernel. If you want to install a new rom, I get bootloop ... If you flash the kernel Agni, it's all right. I tried to clean install recovery Philz New Rom Megawipe Sripet tried, but not great. For some reason I can not use a custom rom kernel only Agni. I tried to wipe preload, but says Philz error. I can not wipe preload ... Any idea what's wrong? twrp the same phenomenon. I tried liquidsmooth Dirty Unicorns, etc. ruin, but only Agni kernel works. I hope you understand ...
