Clearing A Device?

Did you flash with or with out a storage card?

Maybe that's the problem?

Cheers, Leo :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] drsqueggy:
without storage card...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] ivorh:
Flashing the ROM overwrites all installed software. Perhaps your extended ROM install is breaking something.

Either wipe your extended ROM (search for an 'empty extended ROM' image) or hit the reset button during the 3 second pause before the ext-rom install kicks off.

First i would like to thank you for your contribution for our Ace devices. I would like to use your kernel with full f2fs, but the system partition is too small(approx. 600MB) to install GApps that i would like. Is there any way to enlarge system partition? Thank you
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChronoMonochrome:
Temporarily there is no repartition script, that changes system partition. You can edit repartition.sh manually(remove system partition, change start/end positions of needed partitions and then create /system. don't forget then to name it "SYSTEM" - without quotes. There's no difference in which order you create partitions, just make sure that number of system is 3, data - 5, cache - 4, etc... ).

Make sure you have backup. To restore partition scheme flash stock with pit file.

P.s. if unsure, read this topic since repartition may be potentially dangerous.

Increase UMS partition size

Hi! Can you tell me how do I edit the script to leave a little more storage on UMS (around 50-100MB) ? Thx for your reply!
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matteo90:
Forget it, I pretty much figured it out after downloading a proper script editor, instead of messing around in notepad, lol. :D

By the way, these are the lines I edited in reparted.sh:

parted $MMC unit kb mkpart primary 3578036 3448836

parted $MMC name $CACHEFS CACHEFS

parted $MMC unit kb mkpart primary 747635 3578036

parted $MMC name $DATAFS DATAFS

parted $MMC unit kb mkpart primary 3448836 3948886

parted $MMC name $UMS UMS

Is it going to work as expected, or there's still something that needs editing?

EDIT - UPDATED - Now its correct...

Use an CWM Kernel... TWRP has no PARTED integrated

Please note that mkpart-part is in the order as the name-part.

The nameing right after mkpart results that DATAFS was not named correctly here... Don't know why...

Therefore I put the naming at the end...

And note that I've already SYSTEM in the script - This can be deleted if you do not need it....
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matteo90:
Thank you, both you and Chrono! :good: ;)

So all I have to do, is paste your script into reparted.sh, and everything will work like a charm.

One last question, though... Chrono wrote in his original post, that he left cache 320MB because F2FS needs it. If I plan on upgrading to F2FS in the future, is it better for me to leave it at 320 or the 130MB you calculated should be enough?
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluffi444:
As you like... I'm also an full F2FS and have the minimum recommended for F2FS whioch is 130MB... This is setted in the script...

Don't know if 320 will imporve it or not - Never tested...

If you want to have the values with 320 on Cache - Here you are :)

641.729	SYSTEM	System	mkpart primary 105906 747635
2.781.202	DATAFS	Data	mkpart primary 747635 3528837
320.000	CACHEFS	Cache	mkpart primary 3528837 3848837
100	HIDDEN	Hidden	mkpart primary 3848837 3848937
100.000	UMS	Int. SDCard	mkpart primary 3848937 3948937

And dont forget to format partitions DATA CACHE (SYSTEM if changed) with the file system you want. Also format Int. SD Card with vfat/fat32.

Keep in mind that if you format SYSTEM with F2FS you would need an ROM.zip with adjusted mounting values (Chrono wrote it in this Kernel thread)

AND: Make this all with a Kernel with CWM (not TWRP) - No PARTED in TWRP...
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matteo90:
Thanks, but F2FS is still in the future. :) I'm currently using ace2nutzer kernel, and I'm happy with it, won't convert to F2FS until his kernel supports it. But this adjusted mounting volumes has to do something with this repartitioning, or it's just the same thing Chrono wrote about in the F2FS installation tutorial in the third post of his kernel thread?

Also another noob question :D In your script, you put HIDDEN partition between CACHE and UMS, while in the original Chrono script HIDDEN is the last partition. Does it matter where this partition is?
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluffi444:
The ones were HIDDEN partition is between CACHE and UMS is only for values of each partition (c&p out of my Excel calculation file) - This is not the script...

The script beginns with #!/sbin/sh

And no - This is only for changing partition sizes...
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matteo90:
Okay, I did it! Now I have 2.55GB on data, thanks to you guys! ;)

Although I got an erron in CWM, saying "E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]", but after googling it, I read that it should not cause any problems.

Did you format Internal SD (SDCARD0 in CWM) to vfat?
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matteo90:
That's what it says:

C:\Users\Matt>adb shell

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 unit kb print
sh: parted: not found
127|root@codina:/ #

I did a system wipe, installed Rox 20141109 Rom and switched to ART in the meantime, could that be the problem?

Also, Internal SD was formatted as default, which I guess is FAT32. But that unknown volume error has since disappeared, CWM only gave that for the first reboot after repartitioning.

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluffi444:
Not 100% - Because HIDDEN and UMS should be changed (their place on NAND) - But the most impotrant (Partition Nrs) are correct...

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matteo90:
I edited Chrono's script with your values, but he left HIDDEN at the end, so I figured it would be better if I do the same.

Is it going to cause any problems? What is HIDDEN used for, by the way?
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluffi444:
Never tried Chrono's script. Mine is tested (from me) with my phone and it gives me the 100% original partition order as it was originally.

This is an 100% original layout...unmodified... (left out the parts of no interest)

3 106MB 748MB 642MB ext4 SYSTEM
5 748MB 2056MB 1309MB ext4 DATAFS
4 2056MB 2377MB 321MB ext4 CACHEFS

11 2713MB 2765MB 52,4MB Fota
8 2765MB 3949MB 1184MB fat32 UMS

BUT - I would leave yours as it is...

As I said - Its important that partition no's and names are correct... And they are for you...

I don't think that there will be a noticeable difference...

HIDDEN is not really needed in CM11. But if its not there some reported that CM11 does not boot.

Therefore its there - but as small as it can be...some KBs... To be sure I choosed 100KB.

If I remember correctly PRELOAD was on HIDDEN on JB...

I bought a Motorola XT925 on ebay branded Orange France and loaded with Jelly Bean 4.1.1 firmware.

The phone was sold to me as a 4G/LTE capable device. Not seeing an option for 4G/LTE in the phones menu, I then dug around the Orange France web portal. There it says the phone is not 4G/LTE compatible. This was confirmed by Motorola France.

So my big question: is the radio hardware in this Orange France phone the same as an XT925 that I would by from Rogers Canada, but just not initialized for 4G/LTE? Or is the actual Radio hardware different? Even Motorola France was not able to tell me over the phone about the exact hardware.

Do I have a hope to get 4G/LTE working on this phone?

I want to try a Rogers firmware on this phone, but don't want a 200,00$ paperweight.

Thanks for reading.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diordnAMRZAR:
I have a custom recovery utility installed after rooting and unlocking the bootloader and just completed a backup on the phone. I figure since the phone is wearing jelly bean 4.1.1 I ought to be able to take the Rogers firmware jellybean 4.1.2 and flash that onto the phone. Just not sure how to make sure that the modem gets flashed when I do fastboot flash system system.img. So I am looking around to piece together the instructions on how to flash the modem or does the system image contain all I need for the modem and all else?

I kinda like the lock screen on the Orange.fr firmware -- has a sliding mute feature that might not stick around after a system flash. minor detail though as all I really want is a working LTE device.

Thanks

Rsd lite 6.1 to flash

I have downloaded the 4.1.2 Rogers firmware but to be honest I don't know exactly what or how to do with the zip file. I've opened the archive -- I even flashed the modem and all the rest of the blobs onto the phone, one by one based on a batch file from another archive. What happened was I lost my patience waiting for the phone to reboot as it appeared to be stuck on the Motorola boot logo. (Maybe it was rebuilding the cache??) I used the recovery to get the phone back. So if you can give me a clue as to what to do exactly with the firmware zip -- much appreciate your council.
