What is the maximum file size FAT, FAT32 & NTFS file systems supports? Any methods of switching from FAT & FAT32 to NTFS file system without formating appreciated. (i.e without removing the files from a particular drive).

Difference between FAT & FAT32?

First, note that there are three varieties of FAT: FAT12, FAT16, and

FAT32. Many people call FAT16 just FAT, because before FAT32 came out,

FAT16 was the only variety used for hard drives, so just calling it

FAT was sufficient.

FAT12 (hardly used at all anymore) had a maximum volume size of 12mb.

It was used almost exclusively for floppy disks.

FAT16 was used on hard drives (or partitions) up to 4GB, and had a

cluster size that varied from 2kb to 64kb, depending on the size of

the partition. It is almost never used anymore, because almost nobody

has partitions as small as 4GB.

FAT32 took over from FAT16 and has a maximum drive size of 2TB. Its

maximum file size is 4GB, which is why you can't copy a 5GB file to

it. Its cluster size is 4KB up to a partition of 8GB. Above 8GB the

cluster size grows up to 32kb.

NTFS is what almost everyone should be using on their hard drives

today. Its maximum volume size is 2^^64-1, and its maximum file size

is 16 × 1024^^6 bytes (way more than the biggest hard drive available

today). Its cluster size stays at 4kb, regardless of the volume size.

Has anyone got this kernel to work on verizon variant latest us unlocked firmware and a cm rom such as rr?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
why dont you state your problems and maybe I can help you out..........

Have you tried booting it on a CM ROM? and if so, what happen.. and can you display a log post #5 I think...........

and if you didnt, it might be easier if you just try and see what happens...........
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] gillim74:
I tried already.i try not to ask out of the blue questions.i usually try something before asking for help or anything.i am on rr rom and when i flash the kernel the phone dont boot it stays on htc screen.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
when it does that, can you drop to twrp and give me the logs in /sys/fs/pstore/ and maybe we can figure this out.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] gillim74:
​

Sure thing.how do i get the logs?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
So I can format my SD Card to NTFS?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yes you can but for what? He was just giving examples.

If anything just format your SD card to Fat32. But if you have a 64gb card your gonna lose some gigabytes.

Thanks to an undisclosed source, I have another idea for the exfat..............

at least its a try................ so give me time.. and ill see what I can do with it...............

I wont release this persons name cause I am not sure if they want to be mention..

but they know why they are........... Thanks again for your help............
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] gillim74:
How do i get those logs for you buddy
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
post #5 or 6 has instructions.. try that fist.. i cant really ty pe right now, i cut my hand pfretty bad and im bleeding all over the place..

dont worry i will live.. :)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] eriknors:
I had already formatted my SD to fat32 in my computer then when I stuck it in my phone it automatically reformatted it to exfat. Plus I don't see a reason to RE-reformat back to fat32 when I have a 64gb SD card. If I wanted to only be able to use 32gb I'd have gotten a 32 gb SD. This kernel looks pretty awesome but to sacrifice half of my space seems like a huge drawback. I hope there's a fix for the exfat that u do put out. Like I said this kernel looks good
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Hope you get well soon! Take a small break and recover if you need to.

[MENTION=5687366]Eliminater74[/MENTION] said there are testers testing out exfat for the SD Card and they should report back soon.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
you dont understand what fat32 is do you? you seem to think it means your limited to 32gb.. and if you would of read the the previous page, you would see that

fast32 is limited to 2TB drive. which there isnt even a micro SDCARD with that much space yet.. and as for max file size, its 4GB, which unless your downloading bluray's you prob wont ever go past 4gb..............

you do not loose space over fat32.. I have a 128gb sdcard and its formated in fat32 so that its supported by my linux system. exfat isnt.. and I got all 128gb's take a few megs... its really 127, but come on..

I dont understand where everyone is getting there thinking from. everyone makes a great big deal over exfat visa fat32. when only 3 or 4 manufactures even support exfat..

its a closed lic from Microsoft. Nobody is sacrificing any space regardless of what they use. FAT32 DOES NOT MEAN 32GB ONLY .....

PS: The 32 represents the days of 32bit.. not 32GB....

FAT32 came out before harddrives went past 100megs............... I know.. I remember windows 1.3 back in early 80's thats when it was fat only............

fast32 came out in 90's I think with windows 95 if I remember right............ hint the name, 1995.........................................
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] eriknors:
My apologies I thought it reformatted to 32GB that's what everything was saying that I had read. I'll give it a go then

Is there an app u can recommend to format to fat32 cause when I format on computer it doesn't seem to work
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:

Just thought I'd share got a random reboot here's a log

Yes I've reformatted to vfat
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
when kernel panics it puts log to /sys/fs/pstore/ramoops-0 and ramoops-1

I need them 2 files next random reboot.. it will give me the exact error and the cause.. cant say I will understand it.. but most I can understand..

and some I cant. And its understanding about your misconception of fat32 ............

[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
Looks like its something to do with your settings.. you have something applied on boot or something that the kernel doesnt handle..............

but I could be wrong.. but thats what the log looks too me.. keeping pointing to govs and sched..
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
I am going to push out an update within the next day or 2, Its not going to be much. Just regen defconfigs and made a few other changes....

Dont expect exfat to work..... I am doing my best on that.. but I need a break............

So it will be out soon.

I remember back on the G3 that some custom kernels had Adreno Idler. Is it a necessity on Snapdragon 820 devices?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mamdroid:
Thanks Brother!!! By the way version 2.1.6 is running great for me, been running it since the drop.

Thanks again:cowboy:
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
It can still be used yes, but we dont use it, We use more of another version that someone else did.... More of a booster sorta thing I guess..

I OC the gpu to 650mhz, but there is a block keeping it from jacking up past 625mhz, I thought I found it and fixed it., but still stays at 625mhz...

[MENTION=5687366]Eliminater74[/MENTION]

Could you further over clock this kernel like the new Helix kernel?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
Update:

In Downloads Or From Here: Nebula5e_2.1.7_htc10_20161102_100108.zip

This is FINAL for a while.. Why, because im going a complete overhaul of this kernel. I am downstreaming to a point where I merged in all the caf. Then im going to merge in 1.3.2 caf which is the same the oneplus3

and most newer devices use, and its updated more often, as the 1.3.1 that we use is only updated every other month or so. I have taken another kernel and pushed in some of that 1.3.2 caf before.

and ranked a bench score of 139,000 which put me at 2nd place in the standings, while The Oneplus3 was #1...............

The source to me is smoother and faster.. As I understand that newer doesnt mean better.. but I been doing this a long enough time to know what I need to do...........

I have done this with my LG G3, LG V10 and This Device...........

This is a screen shot of the test I did with that kernel long before I strarted Nebula on the HTC10:

As for the Helix kernel, I looked at the source for that kernel, He said based on CleanSlate which we all know [MENTION=3088420]tbalden[/MENTION] is the author of it.

He forked the kernel over and added in prob about 15 commits.. and he added in one more step as for the OC.. and the GPU he pretty much fixed where I failed......

I dont judge other kernels, and I dont want anyone to compare or judge who is better then who, I dont work like that.

every kernel author here has their own way of doing things... [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3088420]tbalden[/MENTION] pretty much stick to as close to stock as possible while keeping very stable......

Me, I have a history for going for performance all the while trying new things, and keeping temps down and batt good..

and that Image photo I posted with that 138,000 bench score, that was with [MENTION=4738396]sultanqasim[/MENTION] Kernel who I had permission to use and based my Nebula on.

But, I wanted to start from scratch. I didnt want anyone saying I stole or kanged or took anyones kernel and went off that......

So I painfully merged in everything needed and fixed over 100 file conflicts that needed to be fixed from the merge.......

All kernel devs pretty much use the same commits and code, but we all have a unique way of how we lay it out and do things.............

But now with all that said, I just wanted to let you know, it will be a while before next update comes out. I will be very busy with the overhauling of this kernel.

and I talked to [MENTION=2376110]dorimanx[/MENTION] about the texfat issue and he told me what to try and do.......... So I will give that a shot soon......

So bare with me for a while, till i can get this kernel back up on its feet.. so to speak........

it wont be that long, I hope............................... Im pushing for only a few days...
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] holofractal:
Keep it up man. I'm really enjoying this kernel. Using this and ivikasks thermal file, Ghost pepper v4, and intelliactive gov, I'm getting insane battery life.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
I’m not sure if it’s me or not, but after flashing the latest Nebula build my device boots up as normal but the only difference is I’m stuck on a black screen. I can turn the screen on and off but that’s pretty much about it. Rebooting doesn’t solve the issue either but flashing the previous build does.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
I had 5 people test it and run it for a few days as well as me, No problems.. and the only dif between this one and the last one is 2 commits maybe 3.. and they are standard commits that everyone is adding.

maybe a auto apply at boot setting is getting in the way.. maybe clearing cache might help.......

And you said you known me since the G3 days, then you know. please please, state your ROM and Device as well as logs.....

I posted on post #5 or 6 the method on how to do that.............

There is no way I can just go on what your saying, that could be many things......... if you continue to have problems, i am sure this next update that I will come out with will fix it.....

at least I can hope it will.............
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
I'm terribly sorry, [MENTION=5687366]Eliminater74[/MENTION]. I've been very forgetful lately. I'm using a T-Mobile HTC 10 with Viper 3.4.0. I will try to get logcats. (Meow)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Ok. Do you just need the normal logcat?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
adb logcat -h will give you all help commands for that

you would want something like this:

adb logcat *:E

if not E try F

E = Errors and F = Fatal

you can also dmesg -h and kinda do the same

im extremely busy and cant help much right now...... as I have said. Im doing a complete overhaul on this kernel.. and right now im tripping on the Video section.........

keeps telling me undefined when it is.......... Var:"mdss_dsi_get_hw_revision" and I had to fix camera and power and soundwire and wireless........

and the list goes on and on............... but at least im fixing it right this time.. at least trying..................

I am trying to keep the code as close to PURE Caf AOSP without disturbing HTC related code..........

my work around fixes from last time was to dump in the official HTC source into the area that I had issues with............

I am not going to do that again if I can help it............
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
What I did was adb logcat and let it run for a bit and then did adb logcat -v time -d > logcat.log That works for a logcat right? If not, I'll just go back and do what you said.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Krystalmyth:
So to give Ex a break and stuff from troubleshooting thought I'd ask other Nebula users what their thoughts were on governors available.

I heard not all the govs are working properly, or that some are more complete than others? Which CPU governor you guys recommending for the little and big configurations?

Seeing as everyone else is just using interactive, not a lot of documention or experimentation going on in the boards.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mamdroid:
Brother, 2.1.7 is running great. Thanks for all that you do for us!!:highfive:
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] scowley7:
Looking for this info too. Currently using Chill as Eliminator mentioned it recently and using cfq for io (mentioned somewhere else) but really looking for guidance on a good combination to ensure good battery life with performance (ethos of this excellent kernel)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
Just letting everyone know im still working on the Kernel Over Haul......... I got some ways to go, but I can say this, the kernel is now running Fully on HB 1.3.2 Rather then the official HB 1.3.1 .............

That doesnt sound like much, but trust me, there are changes between the 2..... Smoothness for one.. and many files changed over to separate settings.............

Some file locations have changed in the includes Dir.. What a nightmare that was................... instead of includes/media which is still there.. they broke up source to includes/uapi/media as well.

HB 1.3.1 update did that too.. but I by passed it when I was updating because of the many conflicts that had to be fixed.. and I was so new to this Device.. I did not have everything down.

But after building enough kernels and running this device long enough, I pretty much figured out what is what.............

My testers are doing a great job on letting me know whats working and whats not. I will not go on to next merge till I get everything working 100%....

I am trying my best to avoid work arounds this time............. Because that only leads to problems later on.............

People that asked about govs on the previous kernel, 2 or 3 govs are missing the screen on/off api that I have yet to put in the gov............

it goes in the place that power suspend once was.............. Gov still works without it.. but not to its fullest............

But I wont be doing anything like that till I finish this merges and then add back in all the mods/commits.. and tidy it up............

Well this is just a progress post.............
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Krystalmyth:
Which govs are those? That explains why my screen just dims...
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
Woosh, Well peepz, After much merging and fixing all that did not merge cleanly in, and my Testers testing everything for me, I have managed to merge and convert this kernel

to LA.HB.1.3.2-31300-8x96.0 Which is only about 4 days old.. I still have a little bit more work to do. I need my latest build tested and the OK given to move on to next part.....

Before this last merge, my tester reported that on my 4th merge that WIFI was His words "Bloody fast".............

I have no clue on this last merge, because I had to recode parts of the our HTC Wireless bcmd_4335 section to match new codded sources from caf................

I had to do the same with camera includes because it decided to split 4 files into 8 and put them in another area............. that was fun...............

video has added 2 new files called hdmi_audio.c and hdmi_audio.h... Dont ask me what they are for, I havent had the time to go look.. but the name is pretty obviously..

I have worked my butt off to get this merged and working right..... I can tell you how many times i punched my desk because of what looked like Never ending Conflicts and errors..........

and not to mention, I am sick big time............ and I have manged to take some time out to fix the errors, even with everyone telling me to relax and go lay down........

I cant stop what I start.. that is a weakness of mine............ I also do what I do, because I like to be Different, I dont want my kernel to be just like everyone elses.

Everything I have done on this kernel, was all started from scratch....... Taking the Official HTC10 Kernel.. and the Caf related to that which is HB 1.3.1_C1_rb1.5

and after much work.. what nebula is today is what was born from all that work.

Question about Govs: That wont be the reason why your screen dims only.. that has nothing to do with the Screen on/off api.

that api and the gov is used to tell the gov screen is off, now you can shut down more cores.......... and lower other parts..................

that is all that is for.......................
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
Well, I had a few bumps in the road.. one of my testers told me I had a new feature called Wireless Air Charging.......

That is a joke, What happen is, it wouldnt get out of Charging mode, After going though every single USB, then working on every power section..

we found and fix the problem................ who would think that 2 little tiny files could cause so much headache in USB section..

The power section was and still is my headache............ I think my knowledge in C++ has grown 7fold since I started this Project.............

The cool thing about starting from Scratch is you learn everything from the ground up.. you get a wild idea on what is what and where what goes and why..........

sometimes the why doesnt come to me.. but as long as the know what works then the why can come later.. But really. I hate fixing crap and not know why the error took place

in the first hand.... and I hate taking shortcuts............ just ask my testers, I will go though every single Dir looking for the just cause....

I also still have to fix sound.. gota revert that one commit so you Europeans can listen to music. and there is a strange little logcat spam that I need to figure out whats up with that...........

btw: I hope I only have to revert one commit in sound....... I dont really wanna play try and fix the sound again...................

Well thats my news for the day.........

Hey bud, 1.95.401.4 source is out finally over at htcdev
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Eliminater74:
NFO: NOTE: Update:

First I wanted to point out that the new source thats released over on htcdev, has only

142 Differents from the Previous htc10 kernel..... and 90% of that is just Comments left in the source for a change.............

and as for the rest of the changes, I run the latest CAF released for our SOC, and I already have everything the new htc10 kernel released.............

So its been determined that I dont need to merge that in............ and if I did merge it in, it will be a headache. .cause my caf is so updated that many files

have changed locations and added helpers........

I also want to report, that the Final Caf merge went in and the final FIX went though........ my testers have reported everything working 100% except for a few video issues that are on stock as well...

so its not me.......... My kernel is now HB 1.3.2 :3.18.44 .............

Now all thats left is add my commits mods back into it.. then when I release it, Nebula5e_v3.0.0 ,

we have worked our butts off on this overhaul of this kernel.. Its new start.............

Everything has been updated, Power/USB/Camera/Video/WIFI/BlueTooth and im sure other things I havent mention.....

Release SOON..................
