I would try flashing again the ROM. You'll lose everything that you've installed, but it's better than nothing. Maybe someone can help you do that without wiping.

lost system ringtones

I have lost system ringtones for voice, video & sms. I have only one choice to set & that is silent. Any help to restore ?

One more thing:

Not able to use commands in adb shell, whenever I type su it says permission denied. I have adb.exe, fastboot.exe, AdbWinApi.dll & busybox in tools folder at C:\ . But was able to do it from the phone's Terminal emulator.

Any help?

BTW my Quadrant is 1077 up from 864. Can it be improved.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
Thanks! Will try.

By the way, I just discovered both symbolic link created according to 1st post is now invalid. It seems the external SD card is not auto mounted.

Did I miss something?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nop56773:
Strange. I have exactly every problem that you do:

- no "su" when using adb shell but works fine in terminal (that's how I did it)

- scores improved from 850 to around 1060

- lost all sounds.

To work around the last one I installed Zedge that someone suggested to have new sounds.

Regarding the other two, I have no clue about how to solve...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nop56773:
Maybe the kernel update didn't work. I did mine without re-partition and without any PIT file. I'm not sure if that's what's supposed to work, but that's what I did.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
I was able to boot up the phone.

It went blank screen after the 2nd reboot after I moved the data and media into the external SD card.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nop56773:
That should be easy to revert if you have SU through ADB. Try it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
I can't, because it give me permission deny when I run the command. :(

I am downloading the official firmware now. Hopefully I can recover my phone.

How to get back default media audio

Is there any way to get back default media audio ?

Using Android Mate (Root Explorer), I find default audio & video folders containing files in folder /disk/media/audio/ and in /disk/media/video/

How to use them, when I try to select them in settings for sound and display, I get only one option for silent. The SMS tone goes on for more than 6 seconds, how to deactivate it ?

Help needed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
Yay, finally I did it successfully.

However, I would like to know how to mount sdcard on windows?

After I select mount, it only shows internal sd (G:), although F: (supposedly is external sd) is shown but it's not accessible?

so that means my 6Gb (FAT32) of external sd is not usable?

Operating system: windows xp
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dexter666:
no

Today i have tried this fix and system speedup was significant, but Quadrant stops on I/O test, lol.

So i flashed back to JG5. :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
Oh my goodness!!! I am a idiot!!! I did not format ext4 correctly, no wonder everything went crazy on me.

Anyway... After loading the official firmware, then root, then do the steps in 1st post, now everything back to normal.

EDIT: I was wrong, is not back to normal, it is now perfect. No lagging at all, amazing!!! Great thanks to minocan for this build. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jmjacas:
So after a few days playing around with this and noticing it wasnt as fast as it should be I bought a different card in case that was the problem. Now I have a Kingston 8gb class 4 card and I'm noticing the same problems.

First, yes, Quadrant does give me around 1700 points but it takes 5 to 10 minutes to finish the benchmark so there's something fishy there. I don't think a synthetic benchmark is the best way of knowing if this works.

Second, with both cards I've tested there is some lag on the first boot of newly installed programs as if they were being set up. I have not seen this using paul's fix.

In fact, in general paul's fix seems to make the phone faster. I'm not sure if this is due to the cards some of us are using or if this is simply not a very good patch.

Can anyone confirm they're not having Quadrant stall on test 3 and are still getting high marks? Same thing with the apps, are you guys not seeing blank screens at all when first launching an app?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] soraxd:
how did you guys partition the SD card?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ash99:
If i Factory reset the device, do I have to do the ADB commands again ?

EDIT : After doing a few test, it seems the symbolic links survive :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ash99:
Two apps been mentioned in this thread, One for windows and then GPARTED for Linux.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dirk1978:
Thanks mate. I was quite sceptical about this fix but it really does seem to help. It seems JG5 + this fix really makes the SGS fly. Can't wait for Froyo now, just hope Samsung get it right.

er wow
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FromtonRouge:
My results : Before the fix, Fix with ext3, Fix with ext4
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aciduzzo:
EXT4

just finished and here you go (with ext4):

however, now mass storage and Kies seem not to work. anyone had the same? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dirk1978:
I got 1606 on the last run. I do have a class 6 SD though.

Although I do wonder how 'synthetic' these results are.. It may just be that the external SD read/write buffer makes it look like the standard data partition is faster than it actually is. I may be completely wrong though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ash99:
Well, was fighting with this since last night. Had quit a few issues. I decided to wipe the phone and start again from scratch and ... it worked.

Early days still testing but I seem to have an insanely fast phone at the moment.

JG5 + EXT4 + Sandisk Class 2 32Gb. Quadrant 1717
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkstriker:
Ok.

I followed the tutorial and everything worked fine on the first run. No errors or anything of the kind. I did the market fix as described and then afterwards, reboot.

I still get the error message "Sorry, there's not enough space to install this item"

All my other apps work fine and are very responsive (I would hate to have to go back to default)

I tried applying the marketfix again but i get:

$su
#busybox mv /system/media /disk
mv: can't stat '/disk/media': Too many levels of symbolic links
#

When I try without busybox, I get the Cross-device link error.

Now I noticed that I also cannot cd to /disk/media:

cd: can't cd to /disk/media

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Is this all caused by me using Terminal Emulator instead of adb? Whats the problem here?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] KLoNe1:
I just can't see how this is working...

Can someone please explain this to me?

I've setup a 1.4GB Ext4 partition (2nd, after a ~28GB FAT32 partition), no problems, formatted both.

Upgraded to JG5 - rooted & installed busybox.

Used the correct busybox & SU commands to move the data.

Everything seems fine, but there is definitely NO speed increase! Still laggy.

WHAT DOES ROOT EXPLORER SHOW? Is RE showing what is in the root of the EXT4 partition? Because, yes, I do have my disk & data folders in there fine...

What's going on? :/ ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] INeedYourHelp:
This only moves app data, not the app themselves, right? So there's no need to make the ext4 partition huge, right? 500mb should be more then enough?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wliu88:
is this possible to move data to internal SD linux area.

such create /disk to internal SD and move data to there
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
With FAT32+Ext4 on sdcard, can anyone use it (not putting into phone) with windows?

I mean after I partitioned my sdcard to FAT32+Ext4 with paragon partition manager pro 2010, my windows could no longer recognize my sdcard. Is this normal??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
Maybe you had installed quite a few apps?

I did a complete wipe with official firmware, followed the steps in the 1st after. My phone install show great speed and absolute no lagging I can notice. However, as I starts to reinstall my apps, it started to show a bit of lagging. Not as bad as before the mod, for me, I still quite happy with the speed.

Not very sure how my phone would behave if I am going to install more apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
Mine seems OK. You did set the USB mode to storage right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
There is also media from the system. I partition 1G from a 16G SD card, just to feel safer. :D

EDIT: I also moved the /data/log to /disk/log, so maybe is not a bad idea to have a larger space.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
I suggest you run "busybox df -h" to look at your current filesystem structure. Maybe it will give you a clue what went.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
How do u set usb mode to storage?? :confused:

Anyway have u tried it with sdcard reader and not from the phone itself?

Use DCUpdater to download the 'Theme' & DConfig to ban the HtcLockScreen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adeyo:
DConfig? how do you do that? is it an apk? or a command line process. more specifics please :o
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwterminator:
Dconfig comes built into the DC rom - if you are using the latest DC rom, just open the app drawer and look for dconfig.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockethot:
hmm, that didn't work, i might be doing something wrong, thanks though
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apristel:
You need to remove HtcLockScreen.apk from /system/app on the phone

or use Dconfig (included with damagecontrol roms..look in your app tray) and goto the banned apps and ban htclockscreen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veritas06:
I had problems banning the HtcLockScreen too, & had to manually do it.

Using Android Terminal Emulator ( & after flashing the proper zip file) i ran:

& then rebooted, & got the Vanilla Lock Screen.

[[ In another thread some other users had other mount commands ( someone told me the "yaffs2" part was not required ) but that command worked for me so that's why i posted it as-is. ]]

Thanks a lot!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hved999:
I banned htc lockscreen and it came up all messed up, if i want to unlock my screen i have to slide up, not across. i downloaded the vanilla theme but when press it to update it shows "No MD5 file according to the update was found" and if i hit apply it reboots and goes to a screen with a box and arrow for a brief moment and then it shows a exclamation mark and the android guy. it doesn't do anything after that please help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veritas06:
That's the default Recovery. Do you have Clockwork Recovery installed? If so, DamageControl doesn'y work well with that. You can either replace it with Amon's Recovery or instead of applying the Theme after download, restart into Recovery manually, & flash it that way.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hved999:
thank you very much. yes i did have clockword mod recovery but i managed to flash the image manually

Now does anyone know what widget is that he is using in the video that has the android dude on the top right corner and where I can get it?
[EVO 4G General] Raadius:
I was wondering, maybe I have a bad .apk but for some reason when it's night, it will still show a sun, wtf? It'll show the correct temp, for example, right now it's 66* but it's showing a bright sun saying 'clear', umm it's clear, but there is NO sun in sight lol.

How can I fix this or is this the same on the N1?

P.S. For those that don't know what it looks like,
[EVO 4G General] mjz147:
As stupid as it sounds have you updated the weather, if it is 66 degrees wherever you are it should update it to something relatively close to that temperature, and time of day, if its at night it should be a moon.

The widget will show whatever the actual weather app says.
[EVO 4G General] Raadius:
I have, still showing a sun. It's been like this for a couple weeks, the daytime weather icon shows up perfectly but at night, I get a sun no matter what, 11pm, 12pm, 2am, 4am shows a sun lol
[EVO 4G General] mjz147:
hah, I hear ya. When I had the hero, and every once in a while with the EVO, I would update the weather at like 9 or 10 AM (chicago) and it would show the moon instead of the sun.

The weather app needs work.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] citsym:
X10 is one of the most powerful handsets out there. In spite of running 1.6, it handles most games very well. Can you guys list high-end games (like the ones from Gameloft and EA) that work well on the X10?

The only graphics intensive game that I have is Asphalt 5. It is a bit laggy at time, but is definitely playable.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] realunited123:

Please correct me if im wrong.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] PollPixx:
I think with paid you can upgrade your player more, in free mode you can't get more than 300 goldballs which you can earn during the game. For example, the best bat cost around 3000 goldballs and it will increase your power and contact with a lot. But the free game Arcade Mode is giving you a good idea how stunning this game is, before you buy it...

Now I played for a few hundred hours:D and have the max upgrades, so you can hit balls further than 600...ft/mtr (i don't know from the top of my head which they use)

Buy the game from http://www.gameloft.com/smartphone/hawx/

They will send you an SMS as well as an email with the download link.

The pirated games don't work on X10. They are mainly meant for HTC Desire, Nexus One etc. Gameloft has separate builds for separate handsets.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] phanquangkhanh:
I meant that if you purchased the game from GL. you would receive an email that had link to download. This must be download directly from your X10's browser. Then you could install it.

Sorry, my English is not good. I'm studying in Malay now :D
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] citsym:

How to do the?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kishen80:
I mean that hehehe
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] citsym:
Get an app called MarketAccess (or MarketEnabler).

Install it like any other app. Set your provider to TMobile US or something. Don't forget to backup your original value. If this works, you will get a cat called Top Paid Apps in the market.
