Successfully Dual-Booted Android and Ubuntu Touch so they can co-exist. Should we do this permanently???????????. For my own fun so far. May release a rom and a guide if someone really wants it. Ubuntu Desktop complicates things.. maybe.. perhaps I can change my fstab to work with disk/by-label.

I had to create 3 more lvm partitions.. ut-store ut-data and ut-cache, then recompiled Ubuntu Touch for those partitions.. changed the rootfs and ramdisk and zip files.. It worked.

I am quad booting.. WebOS, Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Touch, and CM10.1 :good:

Removed CyanogenMod Recovery from /boot to hold all the kernels.

Some webos notes

Thanks RedCrimson for his awesome scripts.

resizefat /dev/store/media XXXXM

lvresize -L -XXXX}M /dev/store/media

lvcreate -L XXXXM -n ut-data store

mkfs.ext3 /dev/store/ut-data

repeat for data and cache

I used his script to do it... but changed it up some and this is without cache.. I did that as an afterthough. =)

Hardest part is getting /media/internal to unmount. A trick is t mount usb\sdcard on your computer in webos.. Then eject from the pc, and right when you do run umount /media/terminal in novacom and it will stay unmounted.

cd /tmp

echo "Repartition to create ext3 volume for Ubuntu."

pkill -SIGUSR1 cryptofs

umount /media/internal

echo "Did the previous line say something about not being able to umount /media/internal? If so, press 1, otherwise press 0."

echo "DO NOT PRESS 0 IF IT DID SAY SOMETHING; THIS CAN LEAD TO DATA LOSS! If it did say something, reboot and try again."

read PROBLEM

if [ $PROBLEM == 1 ];

then echo "Goodbye."

exit

else echo "Ok, continuing."

fi

PARTITION1=318

PARTITION2=1610

echo "Your chosen partition is ${PARTITION1}MB."

CURRENTSIZE=$(lvm.static lvdisplay -c store/media | awk -F: '{print $7/2048}')

echo "Your current media partition is ${CURRENTSIZE}MB."

NEWSIZE=$(($CURRENTSIZE - $PARTITION1))

echo "Your new partition layout will include a ${PARTITION1}MB ext3 partition and a ${NEWSIZE}MB media partition."

echo "Does this seem correct? If so, type 1, if not, type 0."

read OK

if [ $OK == 1 ];

then echo "Ok, continuing."

else echo "Goodbye."

exit

fi

echo "Now resizing your media partition and creating the ext3 partition for Ubuntu."

resizefat /dev/store/media ${NEWSIZE}M

lvresize -L -${PARTITION1}M /dev/store/media

lvcreate -L ${PARTITION1}M -n ut-system store

echo "Your chosen partition is ${PARTITION2}MB."

CURRENTSIZE=$(lvm.static lvdisplay -c store/media | awk -F: '{print $7/2048}')

echo "Your current media partition is ${CURRENTSIZE}MB."

NEWSIZE=$(($CURRENTSIZE - $PARTITION2))

echo "Your new partition layout will include a ${PARTITION2}MB ext3 partition and a ${NEWSIZE}MB media partition."

echo "Does this seem correct? If so, type 1, if not, type 0."

if [ $OK == 1 ];

then echo "Ok, continuing."

else echo "Goodbye."

exit

resizefat /dev/store/media ${NEWSIZE}M

echo "Rebooting..."

Hmmm.... So the entire rootfs installation should have gone very quickly with this error, correct? Usually the install will take 3 minutes or so...

Right?

Odd... Hmm maybe the file I am installing is different then what is on google drive.. I will double check.
[Other TouchPad Development] hresto:
I don't know how long it usually takes since this is the first time installing, however, when the progress bar stops during deployment of Ubuntu, it takes about 3 minutes to complete. I just downloaded again from Google and I got weird filenames, which I installed with the same results.

What happens after moboot boots uImage.CyanogenMod?

Do you get an error or just a blank screen? Can you adb shell after about 30 seconds later?

If no, format data and system and just install the system cm-10*.zip file without the rootfs..

Can you adb shell now?

Filenames should be...

cm-10.1-20130927-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip

saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip

I still haven't checked... will soon..

We are now dual-booting with android. First thread updated.. read the notes carefully!

Tested! Formatted the 3 new partitions, installed the same files I uploaded to google drive.

Should work.... I tested it... one time. =) First time I got dual booting working, wiped, wrote\updated (wrote is a bad word) the partition creation script... removed my 3 lvm's.. ran the script to create them.. created the rootfs.. wiped 3 new ubuntu touch partitions again.. removed the /boot/uImage.UbuntuTouch.. installed the 2 zip files.. booted okay (with same bugs as non dual-boot,.. touchscreen can be iffy etc etc).. I then uploaded to google drive.

[Other TouchPad Development] kyzerdroid:
Jshafer you da man....:) triple boot:) just a quick question before I get busy installing. I am dual booting using jscullins cm10 preview which runs perfect. Do I need to restart from scratch? Or can I just use the 3 files and follow your guide meaning: first file in webos, second file cm10.x ( do I need this as I am already running cm10, or will it create the partition?) And last but not least the rootfs for Ubuntu saucy touch? Right? By the way I am using the latest moboot. Sorry for my questions but I am still a newbie:) but feel comfortable installing all of this.

So exciting

Hey guys,

how can I uninstall the Ubuntu Desktop partitions?
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
You can, but you would have to change the /etc/fstab file to reflect the different dm-# for the ubuntu touch partitions.. Create a new RootFS with your fstab. Check out the notes.. I added.. more. :)
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
Added that in the uninstaller.. check out those notes. Though.. I do wonder about that 10.66GB that is what my 16GB Touchpad was at with 3.0.5 stock partition size and cyanogenmod 10.1 from milaq... I remember something better but.. hmmm...
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
You are ready.. be sure to have novaterm installed.. You need Android and WebOS and NOT already have Ubuntu Desktop version installed. You know if you do...

Gracias!

is cm-10.1-20130929-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip necessary? i would like to keep jcsullins cm10.1 0808 cause it has bluetooth.
[Other TouchPad Development] khanam:
is the cm 10.1 file just 29 mb or is that a bad upload?
[Other TouchPad Development] The Jack of Clubs:
oh i didnt even notice that. it is 29mb. im guessing that shouldnt be that small.
[Other TouchPad Development] The Jack of Clubs:
so i took a second look at the cm-10.1-20130929-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip again and im pretty sure it has nothing to do with cm10.1 so its ok its 29mb. the updater script has things like:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/store/ut-system", "/system")

and

package_extract_file("boot.img", "/boot/uImage.UbuntuTouch")

i guess its just based on the cyanogenmod base. i dont know anything about ubuntu touch so i guessed it was wrong too. it should probably be renamed or something.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
the cm10.1 zip file shouold be around 30MB... It is a stripped down version of android, only for the lxc container. That is why it is so small.

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/

See?
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
No it should be called uImage.UbuntuTouch, if it was called uImage.CyanogenMod it would overwrite your CM-10.1 Kernel.. Your android kernel.
[Other TouchPad Development] jshafer817:
If you install the cm-10.1 for ubuntu touch, and you have setup the 3 new lvm partitions, then it should not conflict with the milaq\jcsullins build. Mine is still working.
[Other TouchPad Development] khanam:
Great my pc is on the blink. Anyone know how to get palm SDK and novacom working on a Mac? I googled it but getting confused because virtualbox 3.2 isn't compatible with osx 10.8 and palm Sdk seems to require that.
[Other TouchPad Development] The Jack of Clubs:
i was saying the cm10.zip should prolly be renamed since its not actually cm. but i have it all figured out. my only problem now is figuring out why i cant get the partitions created. if i use the novaterm.exe program, all i get is "unhandled exception" errors, but if i use the lighter weight novaterm.jar program, all the steps go through but the partitions arent there afterwards.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AyanamiZer00:
Out of curiosity...

So, I came from a Galaxy Nexus to the Evo LTE. On my GNex, it had one 32GB slab of storage, and it all mounted as one device (MTP Style). The Evo obviously does not (USB Mass Storage Style). Is there a way to break this down so that it behaves similar to the Nexus?

Win7 will recognize internal as mtp, is my understanding. Add on tools are necessary to mount ext SD. Hope that helps at all.

Alot of apps the I have moved to my SD still show as they are on the phone and which meams its taking up the phones storage. When I remove the SD none of the apps work because they are in fact on the SD card and not on the phones storage. Does anyone else have this problem?

That's what I thought as well. It seems like the data is still being registered on the phones storage as opposed to the SD card even though the app has been moved to the SD card.

Dont know if anyone else has come across this problem or my gps is crap. Takes ages and very clear sky to find satellites. apart from that when i go through blackwall tunnel the gps stops (obvious reasons) but then does not start again on the other side. what i dont understand is why cant it connect to satellites like in-car navigation systems.

Do you think a gps aerial will make a difference??

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
I have a SanDisk 64gb card which is formatted Fat32.

I've been running it without issue for a few months.

45gb is being used.

I wanted to transfer the files to my pc, and have a few questions/comments:

- after transferring my files I want to format to exFAT

- will my files that were on my Fat32 card be able to be transferred to my exFAT card, as there are a couple of Nandroid, ROM downloads, pics, etc. that I want to transfer back.

- after transferring files to my pc, I was going to place the card back into my S4 and format card from the device. From what I've read, the device will format the card to exFAT. Would this be correct?

There are a couple of reasons I'd like to format the card:

- I want to transfer files to pc, and have some more space on the card, and figured I'd format to exFAT so as not to have file size limitations, although I've yet to dl any 4gb files.

- I'm taking a preemptive strike to avoid possible card issues which may arise in the future. I thought transferring many of the 45gb of files on the card, and re-formatting the card may assist with this, or is this not necessarily true?

If formatting the card and emptying files doesn't reduce the possibility of borking the card in the future, I want to transfer files anyway, in addition to having the card in exFAT unless there is a downside to this format.

Tia......
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackknightavalon:
I recommend keeping it at Fat32. The phone won't read ExFat.

Sent from Spaceball One.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
Shouldn't be a problems with what you're wanting to do.

-Copy sd card contents to PC

-Reformat and copy content back

-Make sure the recovery you're using can read exFAT (both TWRP and Philz CWM can read exFAT)

-Also be sure the kernel support exFAT or your phone might not boot up.

-There's pros and cons to each format but for regular user like myself it's not something I really worry about

The phone out of the box should read exFAT. It's when using different kernels that does not support exFAT it will not read.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
Last night, I:

- copied 45gb data from card to pc - 50 minutes

- I've read about the kernels and the format to be used

- decided to keep card @ Fat32 : "If it Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It" applies here ;)

- I haven't deleted files yet, or formatted

I formatted the card once before using my pc and www.easeus.com

I found this also:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1773735&page=2

But most likely will use the easeus method, which is also in that thread.

I'll take another look, but does formatting the card using the S4 format to exFAT or Fat32?

I thought it was exFAT, buy info or mis info is all over the place.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
I've not used the on phone format feature yet.

To go from exFat to FAT32 I use Minitool partition

http://download.cnet.com/MiniTool-Partition-Wizard-Home-Edition/3000-2094_4-10962200.html

To go from FAT32 to exFat I just used the Windows PC formatting feature.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
I'm on Fat32 already.

Is re-formatting an exercise in futility?

I was thinking to re-format because:

- after months of making Nandroids without issue, I had trouble recently Booting after backing up to extSdCard. I'd freeze on Samsung splash after multiple backup attempts.

I backed up to internal and booted fine. I dont know if this was coincidence, but figured I'd format for good measure. Otherwise, the extSdCard is running without issue.

Not sure there even is an issue.

I actually had a successful Nandroid to extSdCard card afterwards.

Just thinking out loud.

I'll probably just empty the card of some gb, and not format.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
Formatting is a breeze. I've gone from exFAT to FAT32 and vice versa without a problems. Both was achieved in minutes, only time consuming is copying contents to and from sd card.

I was also having troubles with TWRP not booting past Samsung splash screen and I was on exFAT at the time.

Like you have mentioned I only got that problems since flashing with Aroma and never before that.

I've since switch over to Philz CWM and everything is OK (except nandroid backup take ages:laugh:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ChitownWingMan:
I'm sorry but this is an incorrect statement. Samsung has supported exFat on 64GB cards only on both the Galaxy S3 and S4. Their initial implementation was buggy but they did work the kinks out.

Here are the disadvantages to using FAT32 on 64GB cards:

Fat32 only supports files up to 4GB - 1 (technically 4,294,967,295 bytes) in length. A high definition video today takes up to 4GB per hour of video (even more sometimes). This limits the size of movies you can store.

The maximum size of a directory (actual number of bytes of the directory itself, not number of files) is limited to 65,5355 bytes. Considering that each directory entry takes up 32 bytes that limits the number of files in a single directory to 2047 entries if long file names are not used. With files names longer than 8 characters that number gets reduced significantly. That is a problem for apps like Titanium backup that use lots of files or if you have a lot of MP3s.

I have been using exFat on my 64GTB SDXC memory cards on both my S3 and my s4 without any problems after Samsung fixed the initial bugs.

You should not encounter any problems copying files from your FAT32 card to your PC and then copying them back to an exFat card. I have done that several times.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Biker1:
[MENTION=567392]ChitownWingMan[/MENTION]

Some good info there re capacities and such.

Earlier I decided to keep the format at Fat32, and didn't re format

If it ain't broke, don't fix it, as they say.

I also understand that exFat is Kernel sensitive, so I'd be limited to wha I can flash

Owe ya a Thanks. My daily 8 limit ran out ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ChitownWingMan:
Your welcome. I was one of the first people to report the exFat bug in the original release of the S3 and I worked with Sandisk and Samsung to identify it as a bug.

I actually tried to run NTFS for a while but I couldn't find a decent implementation for Android and EXT2, EXT3 or EXT4 have little or no support on Windows.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackknightavalon:
Ahh, this again. Since Ubuntu doesn't read exFat, you'll understand my reluctance to reformat.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ChitownWingMan:
I just googled "ubuntu exfat" and came up with more than a dozen websites with instructions on how to install and use exfat on Ubuntu.

Good luck...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bugmanmd:
I have done exactly what the OP mentioned - with 32 GB SD card. I copied all files to my computer, formatted the SD card from its original FAT-32 to exFAT, using an SD-card adapter. With quick format that only takes 2 seconds. Then copied all files back to the card, stuck it in my Galaxy S4 (Build VRUEMJ7, if that's important). And it works fine - all the files are readable on the phone - music, video, .doc, .xls, .ppt. , mp3 , No problems.
