Why should it care if /mnt/sdcard is on an internal partition or on an external sdcard partition?

I downloaded APK Manager from here...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695701

then based on what ibrickeditithink stated (http://xdaforums.com/show...postcount=2602) I pulled apart two game apk files, angry birds and fruit ninja (since I know that one works) and looked for differences that I could comprehend.

My best guess effort was that fruit ninja had this listed in their android Manifest.xml file

android:installLocation="auto"

whereas angry birds said something about installing to external card only. I figured since the mapping was messed up on our tablets that this would be a good place to start so I modified the xml file, used the APK manager to repackage it and pushed it though adb install to my gtab. it installed succesfully and there was an icon in my launcher for angry birds, i clicked it to open the file and my screen went blank and I could hear the music for angry birds but no video. I had to hit the back button to exit the game.

I'm not a programmer (not since q-basic anyways) so seeing as how I was already in over my head I decided to try again another day but i kept all the exploded files for both games to compare again in the future. Maybe somebody with some actual knowledge can step in at this point and fix that last little bit that is killing the video?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Saurabh:
Hey. Can you post your modified file for Angry Birds here?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] y2ktibltd:
I might be able to get away with posting the androidmanifest.xml but I think posting the entire apk might go against forum rules. Although being a free app it might not apply, any mods want to clarify this? :confused:

rename the extension on this file from .zip to .xml before you re-package, you'll notice I also changed the allow ads value to false from true.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rushless:
I am curious if the music is "in game" or just music when the game first loads. It could be the reason for no video is that it is trying to pull data from where the game expects to see it, but can not.

That, or Tegra 2 and Angry Birds are not video friendly.

Could be that the header fixes install problems but Tegra 2 is still an issue.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] gj13:
I'm pretty sure it's because it doesn't have Tegra support yet. I got these errors from logcat:

E/linker ( 4764): bionic/linker/linker.c:693| WARNING: `/data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/lib/libangrybirds.so` is not a prelinked library

E/linker ( 4764): 895 mapping library 'libangrybirds.so' at 80800000 (index 00000008) through buddy allocator.

The library folder has two ARM folders inside, each with a libangrybirds.so file.

Changing the storage location does solve the problem installing it, however. The lack of Tegra support seems to be why no video shows.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petecdun:
Hi guys

I switched from my x10 to a nexus one last week, really wanted to try out Froyo, multitouch, and all the goodies that come with that.

I flashed a desire sense rom onto my nexus a couple of days ago. I didn't bother to check what the internal memory was on first boot, and perhaps I should have, but hopefully you can help anyway.

I used titanium backup to restore all of my apps. However, I got to a certain point, and my internal memory was full. So I had to cancel the process, and then start a new batch process in titanium backup to move all the apps to the sd card. This seemed fine, I started again to restore all the previously unrestored apps. Then, sooner than before, the same thing happened again. So I cancelled the process and moved all apps to the sd card. This went on, to the point where I'm at now, that I have so little internal memory I can't install any more apps! Even though I have supposedly shifted all my apps to the sd card. I have no idea what has happened this memory, where has it gone? How do I reclaim it? What is it that is taking it up, if all my apps are on my sd card instead? :-S

Thanks for the help as always guys, any tips are much appreciated.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Download DiskUsage from the market (you may have to uninstall something first).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
When you restore from titanium after flashing a rom just restore missing apps and data NOT all system data, just fyi

or just do basic apps you need

if you are going to run sense roms you should use amon_ra 2.0.0 to set up an ext3 partition. Some roms move the a2sd auto after you reboot right after flashing rom and some use Dark Tremor that they include in rom. Just need to be sure.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petecdun:
Thanks for the tip about titanium, I'll remember that for the next time.

I ran DiskUsage, seems I have 96.3MB of system data... Is all of this essential, or is there any way for me to clear some of it? How did it all get there in the first place?

Thanks guys.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
that seems awful high for system mem free. sure it isn't internal free memory your seeing

not familiar with diskusage, if it shows all, good

i like quick system shows all mem info. maybe just duplicates diskusage, don't know

interested to know internal free memory
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petecdun:
According to disk usage, out of a total of 196.2MB internal memory,

79.8MB is used by apps (presumably those which must be stored locally)

96.3MB system data

and 20.2MB free space.

Does this help?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
ask the right questions, that is not a large amount of system memory if he is using the new sense 2.0 roms

, are you using the new desireHD rom / mytouch 4g, with sense 2.0, these roms are large, leaving very little space on the device, if it is one of these you will have setup an ext partition on your sdcard,

if you have flashed the desireHD rom plug your phone into pc

from cmd type

adb shell stop

adb shell

a2sd repair

hit ctrl+c to back out

adb shell start

this should move all apps from the /data/app partition into your sd-ext partition, which has much more free space
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
those don't sound right, doesn't it say "internal free memory" and 20.63mb free which is the internal is very low

I go back into TB and scroll down and delete apps from previous rom and then refresh. If you did select "restore all apps and system data" may be why internal is low. Don't think you cancahnge that till next rom flash. If it is working you can nandroid for now and think about Dark Tremor.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petecdun:
I used "eViL-NXSense-v.1.25", this was the ROM that I flashed.

How much free memory would you expect with this? And also, how come the memory went down as I installed apps, even though I moved them to the external memory?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
right, an AOSP rom will leave you with about 70-90 MB, not exactly sure with a sense rom but i doubt there would me much left to play with as the nexus was built without sense

the reason your space still goes down is because when you install the app, it is dexopted and the code is optimized, this optimized code is specific for your phone and is stored on your data partition, so even though your moving the actual app to your sdcard, the optimized code (Dalvik cache) is still stored on your phone, as the same for any app data.

my advice, and what i always use is Apps2Ext this is using a seperate partition on your memory card dedicated to installing apps, if you have one setup already great, if not

backup everything on your SDcard and partition it with your recovery software, when asked, choose 512MB ext, 0 swap, and the rest (FAT), copy all your stuff back to your SDcard, as well as this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715940

flash that through the recovery, it will move all your apps from the data/app folder to the new partition you made on your sdcard and link data/app to that folder so any new apps you install will automatically be installed there
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
I have MicroMod2.10 sense which is auto a2sd, you need an ext3 partition to get more free.

I have 93mb free internal. Normal can be 75 to 120

Your system free mem sounds high

FYI: If you partition with amon or rommgr/cwmod it wipes sd card.

I just messed up my sdcard and had to reformat it, not ext partition, left it alone, thru Mini Partition Tool Wizard and sd card reader. The reader is the only thing that confirms I have ext 3. DT always shows ext2 and rommgr seems to do only ext2. Amon can do ext3, 512mb, 0 Swap

You need to get in habit of backing sdcard regularly, not necessarily all everytime, if a particular folder like videos or pics hasn't changed. They are high mem only.

I have a few questions with regards to rooting my Xperia X10a running android 2.1.

1. I have already set up the phone to my liking (apps installed, settings, etc), if i root my phone will i lose all my apps and settings? Basically will it get factory reseted?

2. I have seen a video on youtube of a user rooting the xperia x10 with android 2.1 using super one click, does this method work and is it safe?

Thank You :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crocketeer:
1. Your settings, apps, and all your other stuff will remain the same, nothing on your phone will change, other than you will now have root access.

2. I've never personally used superoneclick, but I've heard good things. I myself have used Z4 root ( I forget if it's on the market ) and it worked like a charm and only took maybe 30 seconds.

Happy hunting!

P.S. Z4 root is also a "one click" root, very simple
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Junkdown:
Yes z4root 1.2.1 ist the best software for root ;)

Woks fine an my x10.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacDrunk:
yup work like a charm for me,, but one think, you need to install and app that need root,,, cause if you try to open 4zroot again to see if your have root, it maybe show the root button, that happen to me the first time i took a look on the app,, and of course i click again the root button,, and then i think about what i just read,, so i install barnacle tether and it show me that the app ask for root and then i was granted,, so i return to the 4zroot and the moment i open the app superuser message appears asking permission for 4zroot,, now it shows two buttons,, root and unroot.....

you migh try it it works like a charm on the xperia x10a

hope that helps you
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Johev:
I would like to know if anyone has tested this on Xperia X10 mini pro, the full body shield.

Thank you for your input.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] :
I've got the mini's shield. Its pretty good. however the protection for the back cover is pretty much useless cuz it doesnt stick to the rubber coating. And if you do get it sticking it looks like crap. you're better off just getting the screen.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Johev:
Thanks for the information. I might get some silicon protection for the back. The only problem is that my wife uses the phone as it was a nokia 3310, thrown around in her bag, which has everything from a lip stick to a bazooka :).

As this was a present, I don't want it to look like an old calculator by the time we get to Christmas. :D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pabling19:
I have one installed at the kiosk on day one. After day 30 the sides starts to get get peeled and looks ugly. Now, after 3 months, the phone looks like crap (I'm still waiting for a replacement stock so I can't remove it yet). All the sides peeled especially on the earpiece side, camera and volume buttons.

@Johev: That's how I use my phone lol! So far my invisible shield, which claims to be scratchproof is already scratched from my normal extreme wear and tear. I think a good practice is to put silicone casing over the invisible shield.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pongscript:
Got My X10 mini a Invisible shield by zagg, got it installed by personnel on kiosk, which is official retailer on our country. Im still waiting for the replacement since it was peeled off. due to wrong installation, the personnel told me that I have to wait for replacement, though the replacement is free.

I have accidentally rub it to a rough wall, and luckily no scratch on either phone and the invisible shield, got it for more than 2 months now. and it still scratchless. probably luck or it just work or Im just too careful.

I have the full body installation, the back stick perfectly. though missing the rubbery feel, I still have other back cover. Invisible shield was installed on my favorite back cover(black).
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
as the back cover is replaceable.. wouldn't it just make more sense to buy new back covers and just protect the important part (ie the Front Screen) ??:confused:

I have had my phone for quite some time now.. and I don't use the silicone case that came with the phone much (because it makes it too hard to slip out of my pocket)

The phone has a few slight scratches on the (kit bundled) screen protector but the back cover still looks like new.. :D (I would just buy a new back cover if it did get scratched up)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pongscript:
Its not that it does not make sense. but Its just want to protect my phone and its an own personal preference. :):)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lawgone:
Just a little input.

Invisible shield is not a perfect product, though it's efficient.

I have my iPod Touch covered with it, at the same time to fully preserve it's function I also got a Capdase silicon casing as outer cover.

My invi-shield is still intact, and my iPod still looks new (if I take off the Capdase).

And I'm planning to have my mini covered as well.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] asleitz:
Good but not great

I put one on to cover up the scratches. The instructions and installation is easy but like other reviews said, it's not perfect. I prefer no screen protector period. To me, it makes the phone look cheap. I'll deal with the scratches.

my x10 min pro came with screen protector in box.

have used the zagg ones in the past and i think they are rubbish hard to put on and leave the screen dull looking

[Fascinate General] notta:
I have been learning new things on a almost daily basis since I got my first android phone (fascinate). After getting familiar with the flashing processes and testing out a few roms, I decided to try and get the satisfaction of ripping apart my non rooted original DI01 system to build a flashable rom.

I always had a few problems with some of the roms that I did try. These problems included market stalls, data connection being lost completely (no 3g icon), missing puzzle lock then when you install it back in it acts sluggish and boot lag.

Out of curiosity, is this something that would potentially be used by others?

If so would anyone care to school me on the rules for posting such files?

Haha, sorry but I got to say it. I am a complete newb to this and android phones in general. I have on of those attention issues and this seems to be fitting the bill nicely.

With that said I have no idea what my potential is and how far I will go with this, but I am a very quick learner if the subject interests me. I have tested this several times on my own device but that is only one phone. I would prefer an experienced user from this forum do some exclusive testing for me if at all possible. (I don't use gps or some of the extra features of this phone, they are included but not extensively tested)

It's based purely of stock as I personally prefer the stock appeal with an after market launcher. ie: puzzle lock, clock, music player. It will need to be personalized as it should be considered a stock base with some upgrades. At least for now. Plus it all depends on when froyo comes.

I have included a version.txt that contains more detail but still lacking complete information.

If this is of interest and perhaps an experienced user would like to take on testing, please let me know. I did not work with anyone so I just want to be certain.

I have no idea what to compare this to but idle is around 150mb and best quadrant was a 910 with stock kernel and not using any tweak apps. It actually skips past the verizon logo upon boot as well. Your mileage may vary...

[Droid Incredible General] johnpwu:
This interested me, mostly because it so happens that the default "lock after no more than" time on exchange 2010 (and i believe 2007 as well) is 15 minutes. I've only used my android device connected to an exchange server, so I'm not sure if, when not connected, you might be able to get more time.

I am not asking to remove the pin but for an app that will extend the lock time when I can set to 1hr or 2, etc because I do want it to lock at some point.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYCLiz:
I have owned this phone for just a few months, it is like new, but it has locked up/frozen regularly. It seems to be mostly when I text, but it happens no matter what I am doing. It does not have too many programs on it, I have tried hard booting. I keep almost all programs closed on it generally. I bought it barely used so there is no warranty.

It leaves me frustrated and I have to carry another phone as this one is so undependable. I have many times had to pop the battery out several times a day just to function. Sometimes it still does not boot right and I have to start over.

I have tried a few tips on here, but the fact is I am not experienced enough to do anything advanced such as flashing. I have a good 16g card (class 6) on the way because I heard it "could" be a problem.

I am thinking of buying a new Leo, or even an Evo. Just looking for last minute suggestions before I give up on it. Any new ideas?
