external sdcard not working

Hello,

i have a little problem with the external sd-card. I have installed the rom from the internal storage. Everything perfect. The external sd-card is now inside, but i can´t see my folders and my files? With another sdcard is the same problem.

I can move a file from the internal storage to the SD card, but I do not see what is been on the SD card. The moved file I see!

I have no idea.

Thanks in advanced.

Thomas

"Sorry for my english" :)

"Problem solved" ! Thank you!

Great Rom!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tasirith:
Yeah I'm having the same issue. When it reboots it shows signal but there's not actually anything there and it requires a full reboot. The bug just makes it do a hot reboot (ie. not right back to the the samsung logo, just starts at the sentinel logo spinning)

Data usage?

Hi,

I just come form MIUI and tried this ROM and looks fast, smooth great job. I cant find an option...

My mobile "DATA" is unlimited so i like to update and download some bigger files ( 10mb or bigger) but it do not start downloading just waiting for WI-fi. I like to download these files without WI-fi, but cant find the option to do this. Pls. Help me.

Can people who have this problem try something for me. I've been able to replicate the problem by loading up YouTube, then picking a video and when it is loading, flip the screen 90 degrees and it crashes (reboots). Does it do this on your phone too ?

[ EDIT: arrgh - well it does it most times ]

Would a log or something help to find out what is causing this problem? If so, just let me know what you need Sentinel and I'll grab it for you.

(No rush at all Sentinel, I know moving house is a major PITA ! just when you get back on top of things and have a spare moment)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] trawel:
I've got a question. On my previous ROM I was using fast dormancy toggle and it did affect my battery usage. How does it look in that ROM? Does it change anything (I suppose in that ROM it might be completely different because this fast dormancy is connected somehow with ROM and in that there may not be anything connected with that), maybe it's not recommended because it can only make battery drain quicker.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Teraclips:
Yes that's what happens to me as well. It really happens more when I use YouTube but the other day happened when I was using Waze

I've been using this ROM for a week now and so far so good. I've had some issues opening the camera application twice when the screen with go black and the phone becomes non-responsive so I had to start the program again.

Just thought some of you might like to know I've just managed to run my i9100 for over 11 days using Sentinel rom. Admittedly, it does have an extended battery and I have not been using it as my primary day-to-day phone but it just goes to show what is possible....

I've used Dorimanx before to get BLN support but otherwise just use the standard kernel. Thought the issues with the phone rebooting when turning the screen sideways was to do with the kernel so I switched back to the standard but it's with the standard kernel too - a CM bug apparently which has now been fixed in CM nightlies

There's any chance that you update sentinelRom to v.6.00 (cyano 11) for SGII-9100?

Thanx.

I'm running cm 10.2. Since this is based on cm 10.2 can I dirty flash? Or do I need to clean flash?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Glock3am:
I thought you said you were on stock?

I always clean flash personally so I can't comment on whether you can dirty flash or not. It only takes a little longer and avoids any potential issues.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AndroidReborn:
A lot has changed :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Glock3am:
Did you get this going?

Since you are already running a custom recovery, I was just going to suggest making a Nandroid then seeing how you go with a dirty flash. If there are issues then restore your backup, do any prep you need to do (TiBu, etc.) and then clean flash by wiping cache and dalvik cache, then formatting system, data and cache. Install the ROM followed by Gapps and there you go.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AndroidReborn:
I did this sometime ago.. Been changing ROMs after that (about 5-6)and finally settled on Slimsaber:D.. But this one gave me awesome standby time...

I have just installed this ROM on my Samsing galaxy s2 and i am having trouble using the video recorder. I didn't keep the google stock camera app but i am using Camera Zoom fx and when i try to switch from camera to video it says that video is not supported. I have also tried to install a few other video recording android apps and they all seem to freeze or crash. does the video recording have trouble with this ROM or is there something i could be missing?

thanks

Sorry mate not had that problem

Try the kernel cleaning script and check voltages are correct once you've booted up in steaks

Also go into to recovery and reset profiles to see if it helps.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rahulsethi:
I encountered this problem a while ago , to clear this you have to wipe you system clean of any remains of your previous ROM / kernel ( wipe data/factory reset doesn't do it entirely ) .. i suggest flash GS2 nuke script before flashing new ROM . your problem will be solved.

Is it recommended to use dorimanx kernel on extended battery for

And is the crossbreed mod compatible with this rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Essentrix:
Might be best for you to try both and compare. I haven't Used Dori with it yet though from what I can see it would be hard to beat Siyah battery life, stability and smoothness. Really loving Sentinel ROM/Siyah combo.

Overall its a great rom with already a great kernel :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
There’s a lot of hype in the XDA forums recently around Linaro Toolchain.

Linaro Toolchain is used when compiling a ROM and supposedly gives large performance increases over ROMs which are compiled in the traditional manner.

I decided to put it to the test by recompiling my existing SentinelROM v4.40 source code for Nexus 10 using the Linaro Toolchain, then running a series of tests using the standard ROM and kernel, as well as the ROM and kernel compiled with Linaro.

See the results here in this video, all filmed in one take.

[YOUTUBE]O7eBn4Xj4Cw[/YOUTUBE]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] raziel123:
Sentinel dies this mean you will post a linaro optimized version for the s2 soon?

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 PM ----------

Did you reset stweaks profile?

And make sure the GPU voltages are correct ?

They should be 900, 950, 1000, 1050 for Siyah V4

100,160,200,267 speed.

The cm kernel that comes with the ROM has compatibility issues with certain games like nova 3 and also shows up graphical artifacts on other games.

The patched Siyah V4/5 perform the best and so far work with every game I've tried.
