Use external sd-card at /storage/sdcard0 ?

Hi

first I want to thank andrea_d86 for the great work!

I use the rom and the mobil since a half year, fantastic!

I also use the hack to increase application memory.

I use andrea_d86-lenovos750-4.2.2-140121

Now I have the situation:

- internal memory 2,46 G (50% usage)

- SD-Card 143 MB (/storage/sdcard0)

- extern SD-Card 30 GB (storage/sdcard1)

The sdcard0 is heavely used by application (for cache and data) and is almost full.

I had the idea to mount sdcard1 to /storage/sdcard, before this step I have copied Android and other directories to sdcard1. Finally I changed /etc/vold.fstab from:

## GAV MOD2 - change sdcard and emmc

dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard1 emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.0/mmc_host

dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_host

## GAV MOD1 END

to:

# GAV MOD2 - change sdcard and emmc

dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard0 emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.0/mm

#dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_hos

# GAV MOD1 END

Rebooting the mobile stopped without message at the lenovo logo.

Is it possible to use the external sdcard at /starorage/sdcard0 ?

Thanks for inspirations

Martin

if I switch the sd-cards it works! But if I want to use sdcard2 only the device wil not boot.

This is probably a situation, which I can live with.

Hi,

I've just installed andrea's ROM and all is working perfectly. Just one thing seems to be strange. After reboot or switching off my phone all shortcuts pointing to apps installed on SD card disappear at next switching on. Does anyone noticed the same? In my prior phone A660 even with removed SD card shortcuts were still in place but signed with some chinese red signs probably informing about bad shortcut. Any suggestions?

Lenovo S750 - I have a green screen :(

Hallo.

Then founded a topic for one of the Polish forum, but I have no clear answers so I assume on here (sorry for my poor English)

I have a problem with my Lenovo S750 specifically provided that in no matter what application is used in the camera I have a green screen. So in Skype, camera and the barcode.

The problem I have from when I have a soft "andrea_d86-lenovos750-4.2.2" and no matter whether it is older or newer.

I installed everything according to the instructions, also broadened the partition to 2.5GB applications.

After restarting the phone everything is ok, but after some time (from an hour to several hours) as I want to do a photo of the camera app I have green screen, sometimes pops up a message that the problem with the connection to the camera.

I'm not sure how I would come back to the original firmware if the problem is to resign, surely the problem dissipates after throwing a new soft and cleaned in CWM

ANSWER:

If you have a Skype or Viber installed, uninstall it and let me know if helped.

MY ANSWER:

I have Skype and Viber for both applications I care.

I uninstalled Skype and Viber, cleaned / format the memory card. Phone tested a few days ...

and is thus as follows:

1. how it is Skype and Viber installed a green screen appears very often during the day, restart and by "little" time is right.

2. How is installed skype (without Viber) is a green screen appears sporadically, but occurs.

3. How is the Viber installed (without skype) is a green screen appears frequently as at the skype but less than when both are installed messaging.

Well, now I have a question: what can you do? Yeah, I know, uninstall both applications and everything works as it should, but not after I have smatrfon that was not the messengers of whom frequently use.

Can you help with something on my problem? Any suggestions?

There is any way to install apps back in phone storage?

My SD card is unmounting frequently, needs restart, all shortcuts are wiped every time too, if I need to use MTP to play music on Car/minisystem, i stay without half of my apps.

I don't need that plenty space to install apps, but without phone storage option and without using SD card, we ended only with 1Gb from internal storage.

widevine and netflix

hello

have been using andrea rom for some time now and its good thanks for making.

i have all my filesystem under /data symlinked onto the sd card second ext partition which is a sandisk extreme - big tip if you do this or link files to sd make sure to get the fastest sd possible it makes

android so much better. slow IO is a killer for android.

just one problem / question.. has anyone been able to get the latest netflix to work? i just get a black screen with audio, logcat shows errors relating to widevine which i think is the DRM system that

android uses. an ancient netflix 1.6 works as i expect its before widevine framework.

do you think its possible to make it work or is there some hardware feature missing in the mediatek 6589 processor?

No data connection for me also :0(

Under Settings-> More… -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names: There are no APNs listed. With my SIM in another phone the list of APNs gets automatically populated with “orangeinternet” but on my S750 it is blank. I have tried manually adding the APN; this then adds the “G” to the connection icon at the top of the screen but still no internet.

The latest update has some nice touches, but without 3G I’ll need to downgrade to a previous version. I have reinstalled the rom twice, both times doing a factory reset, clear cache and clear dalvic first. I have also experimented with one and two sims cards during the install to see if that helps. I have just changed the phone to include one of the suggested mods: “use internal sd memory as applications memory” before this upgrade. Would this have caused the problem?

Any help at getting this working much appreciated.

You need to disable WIFI (when not available) in order to make G2/G3 data connections work. It should really just connect through the provider even if WIFI is disconnected. I have several times forgotten to re-enable WIFI and that took some hits on my data limit credit. :(

Also, the latest ROM (12 dec 2014) is a little less stable than previous versions. My phone has crashed a couple of times, restarted out of the blue by itself, this had never happened before. Also hangouts crashes constantly, luckily I don't use it but the pop-up is annoying.

Problems with Andrey_GAV's mod?

Hi, I've been using andrea_d86's ROM on my Lenovo S750 for almost a year now and am very happy with it, but only thought of applying Andrey_GAV's EBR mod last week. Am so happy that I'm able to use 2.46 Gb of Internal Storage. However, since the external storage and the phone storage are now flipped, under the Storage menu my phone storage shows 29.80 Gb because of the 32 Gb microSD card, and my SD card storage shows 143 Mb. Under the Apps --> Downloaded menu, my internal storage shows 1.2 Gb used and 1.3 Gb free, and under Apps --> SD card it shows 143 Mb used and 0.00 B free. Every once in a while I get a message that says "there isn't enough memory for this operation" when I'm on Viber, though my phone seems to be working fine. Anybody else experiencing this? And does someone have a solution? Thanks in advance :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arleneteng:
Hi, sorry I've just scrolled back to see that your first message is similar to my message. But admittedly, I have no idea how to switch the sd cards. How did you apply this mod? I keep getting the "there isn't enough storage" message not just while I'm using Viber, but now I've noticed it popping up while I use Facebook (which is, of course, a pretty bloated app). Any tips for a newbie?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arleneteng:
Simple solution or temporary stopgap

Okay, while I was waiting for a response to my SOS, I did some juggling around... it turns out that what you apply the EBR mod, some of the apps like Viber and Facebook Messenger "disappear," and the first time I applied the mod and reinstalled the missing apps, the preferred install location was set to SD card (which at that point was actually my much smaller internal storage). Thus, it filled up pretty quickly. So I did everything again, but this time, before installing any of the missing apps, I set the preferred install location to phone storage (which is now my external SD card). I've also switched the storage location for the camera app to SD card instead of internal storage (it's apparently reading the SD card as SD card storage and not phone storage), and removed all of the existing pix that I had taken with my camera that were stored in the internal memory. I've added all the apps that I couldn't before, and haven't run into any storage problems so far. Thanks to Andrey_GAV and andrea-d86 for all your great work :)

I also was missing just the data connection on my S750 after flashing with andrea_d86-lenovos750-4.2.2-141211 ROM.

After a month seeking for help, found that APN (Access Point Name) was NOT configured (or misconfigured).

Taking advice from a local web page, I took the path

Settings > Wireless & Networks > More... > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names

within Access Point Names panel I introduced:

Name, APN, Username, Password, MCC, Authentication Type and set (ticked) APN Enable.

All this information is network provider dependent, so everyone has to find exact input required for their provider (here in Brazil main ones are Vivo, Tim, Oi and Claro).

After configuring parameters above, data was active without even rebooting the unit.

Very happy now! Notice, I'm a novice to all of this, but learning a bit each day.
