The "allotment" that you guys are talking about is how big of a file system "buffer" the lag fix is making. So however much space you choose you wont be be able to use that space because the lagfix basically just turns that into a huge file.. so out of 2 gigs of internal app storage stock 1.73 gigs are available to store store apps. If you set the lagfix to create a 1 gig buffer, you will now only have roughly .73 MB to store apps. So its basically stealing space to make things faster. The only way to get this space back is to disable the lagfix. I've done the one click method a few times now and make the buffer like 600-700 MB instead of a whole gig and not really noticed a difference in speed got a little more storage.
[Captivate Android Development] DaeYong:
False!

If you set the lag fix to be 1 gig.the apps you install will use this 1 gig partition.

As simple as that!

The only reason you can keep more space free than the size of the lagfix is to be sure you'll be able to remove it later...
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
DaeYoung, you've just proved the point of many people here on XDA. Please lookup what were talking about before you post such blasphemy. The search button is such a powerful tool to all of us here at XDA. Its like giving a tactical nuke to everybody in the world.

[Captivate Android Development] DaeYong:
Really? lol so which folders does the lag fix move on the ext partition? In wich folder are the programs and their datas you install going ? Explain it to me please as it seems I don't get it.(or maybe it's you who should use the search button more often...)

Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
It moves the /data/data folder. If you watched what commands were actually being run during RyanZA's OCLF, you'd see that.
[Captivate Android Development] DaeYong:
Wow you still don't get it do you???

Taken from a Ryan post:

Folders currently supported:

/data/data

/data/system

/data/dalvik-cache

/data/app

/data/app-private as symlink to /data/app/app-private

So my advice to you would be to do a more serious search on what exactly does the oclf change and stop thinking you have the ultimate knowledge as it seems you don't really understand it all.

I accept apologies too...

Anyway error is human... LoL

PS: to be more precise this was for the oclf v2 so as it has been updated since it uses bind mounts now no more symlinks and maybe even more folders are supported.

About the commands you see when running the oclf: did it come to your mind that maybe some commands are run only at the first reboot of your device after you have run the oclf? I guess not!!!!

so I'm done with you and your ignorance, you choosed to attack me and talk to me in a very disrespectful way so that's why i had to reply to you.

To others members:sorry for these few pms you guys are great and this forum is amazing!

Peace.

Hi Guys,

After Upgrading to Android 2.2 "JI6" Captivate the "Market Access" is no longer working even if it shows "Emulating" & I lost lots of paid & free Apps, anyone kind please to tell me the easiest way to see all apps in the market please?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] Justinph5:
Set to 'emulate on boot' then restart your phone. That takes care of that part.

There is another issue with Froyo not seeing all market apps, and that has already been solved by others (these are the same solution):
[Captivate Android Development] :
Thanks for trying to help, however this is "already" a non working emulating method which still says "Emulating" but not seeing all Apps. I will try the "Root explorer" method.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] :
Thanks alot, I just used "Root Explorer" & worked great for me.

Greets,

I'm trying to root the I896 (Rogers Captivate). I keep getting stuck at this step:

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system

Error returned is:

mount: Operation not permitted

After executing RATC I've no # prompt, only $.

I've followed all instructions to a T;

I've done this with manually-installed PdaNet drivers, and with those and Kies;

I've tried different USB ports;

I've read this whole thread;

I've tried using SuperOneClick's files ("rageagainstthecage"—no "-arm5.bin");

I've tried using just SuperOneClick (I actually did this first);

No luck.

I've definitely enabled USB Debugging, and it seems like RATC copies over fine (and CHMods, and executes)—but I just can't get passed that mount bit. I'm not getting #. The same step keeps me looping in SuperOneClick: I can see it executing RATC, getting booted out of shell, reinitializing shell, and then hanging (and looping endlessly here). Trying the unplug/disable debug/replug/unplug/enable debug/replug suggestion isn't getting me anywhere, either. I've been at this for about eight hours now, and I'm about ready to throw in the towel. Could someone please shed some light? BBT

Edit: This thread/instruction-set got me rooted.

Eugene, With a system dump should you not be able to use this build to at least get something with good working sensors on the vibrant? change some file settings and repack it into a zip? what are the main issues with a captivate build on vibrant? key mappings right? sound logic and sensors should work with the vibrant files pushed over, no? because I was using the vibrant roms on my captivate by just remapping the volume keys and pushing the captivate sensor files and some other minor things over.

[Captivate Android Development] heliumhelicopter:
For those unsure which apps to uninstall (note this does not always work):

1. Run the app you want to uninstall (for example AT&T Hotspot)

2. Go to Applications --> Running Service

3. You should see the name of the application and the process. This should help you find the APK. In this case, WISP was in the process name and the apk was WISPr43_Android22_signed.apk
[Captivate Android Development] darkamikaze:
I just freeze those unwanted apps for now.. :T TiBu ftw
[Captivate Android Development] Timan25:
Was able to get rid of everything but Daily briefing, (so if anyone knows which file this is, pls let us konw)

thanks everyone for the tips though froyo was such a needed update, new life into the phone it seems.

haha, i deleted both the SNS files using root explorer and rebooted my phone and it just kept gettings fc and it couldnt work...i had to reflash and now i'm good!
[Captivate Android Development] :
I had updated all apps and then backed up just before doing the Froyo install. Still, I found a few updates the first time I ran the market.

Everything is working as expected. I'm looking forward to testing out the GPS on a drive I have to make out later today, to see how it performs.

[Captivate Android Development] Neurp:
Open cmd prompt (run > cmd)

cd to the location of adb on your computer, such as this for mine:

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools\ (download the sdk if you don't have it)

Then to actually remove an app:

adb shell

su

rm /system/app/*

Put the app name in place of the *. Like:

rm /system/app/ATT-P11_PROD.apk

Then just keep doing rm /system/app/* till bloatware is gone.

Here are a few of the AT&T bloatware app names.

AT&T FamilyMap = androidlauncher2.1-61x612010_06_11t15_49.apk

AT&T Hotspots = WISPr43_Android22_signed.apk

AT&T Maps = attmaps20-1112.apk

AT&T Music = ATT-P11_PROD.apk

AT&T Nav = ATTNav-Samsung-Vega-1516.apk

AT&T Radio = ATT_Radio_Full_En_2.2.16.69695.apk

MobiTV = MobiTV_800x480_320_20100610_1.0.0.15-118829.apk

MobileBanking = MobileBanking.apk

Where = WHERE_Samsung_GT-I900_Vegas_EN_1.9.3_GM_06112010.apk

Alternatively, if you don't want to uninstall them without backing them up, you can just rename them, then reverse it later on.
[Captivate Android Development] ferris2375:
^

Thanks for that.

Although I'm confused why if I'm rooted and have titanium backup installed, why won't it uninstall these bloatware apps? It worked fine with 2.1 now it says can't remove or find APK.

Also how do we find a full list of bloatware? Just navigate to that dir with astro or something?

Some of these tweaks require me to type something regarding sqlite3, but when I do that it says not found, any help on that?

Thanks

Yeah I read somewhere before restoring system data was a bad ideaeven in 2.1.
