Internal memory error issue, FIXED!!!!!

Hi,

I have managed to resolve this error. The cause of it is that for some reason the internal SD lost partition table. To fix, you just have to rewrite the first 512 bytes of disk. Scares you a little, but in my Folio all it was okay.

You have to download the file with mbr that put Dexter.

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=476026&d=1293655235

We put in an SD, and starting the Folio in recovery mode, once there, you connect by ADB and execute commands

mkdir / sd

mount / dev/block/mmcblk1p1 / sd

dd if = /sd/mymbr.mbr of =/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=512 count=1

and with the command

fdisk-l / dev/block/mmcblk0

verify that the disk has 8 partitions.

Dexter sure can put these steps in a update.zip.

Please note, I am not responsible for what may happen in your folio. With these steps I've done OK, but I can not guarantee that your problem is the same as mine.
[Folio 100 Android Development] kakkio:
it's a really good a useful news :), and a tool to re-create lost partitions is welcome

TnX
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i know it sounds silly, but im not really happy to supply this one, although it might be very helpful for those that cannot do the steps so easily.

i lost one folio and bricked it once, and i am unable to verify these steps, or least do currently not dare trying unless im in the same position.

But i will be happy to provide you with the details so you can distribute the update.zip :-) and how you can make the shell script in an update.zip.

Exactly, sounds like a good solution.
[Folio 100 Android Development] kakkio:
you could write this kind of "how to" in a wiki page : http://bb2k.org/folio100wiki/index.php/Main_Page
[Folio 100 Android Development] Arthur_Geek:
Maybe we can edit th .sh file in the update.zip you made to format the SD Card an put these steps in...
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
good idea, but i will not take the initiative here, but its good to know a solution exist.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Arthur_Geek:
Do you think we will find a safer solution to solve this SD Card issue?

If yes, I'll wait.

If no, ...
[Folio 100 Android Development] kakkio:
a .sh file like that could work ?

#!/system/bin/sh
mkdir / sd
mount / dev/block/mmcblk1p1 / sd
dd if = /sd/mymbr.mbr of =/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=512 count=1

to use in update.zip inside /OpenRecovery/sbin/ folder

obviously inside SD must be mymbr.mbr file
[Folio 100 Android Development] bastospn:
I do agree with you! If isn't broken why trying to fix it! One think you could do is to add some Warning in the first post regarding to this issue, so that people avoid doing the same "mistakes" over and over.

I am quite happy with my folio now thanks to you and I will be donating as soon as I get paypal working. I know that much already as been done, but the true is that Nvidia and Google should be working harder and colaborating with manufactures, like Toshiba, to get Tegra 2 Android Tablets working properly.

I'm still see much unexplored potential in here and Google and Nvidia must understand that people are expecting much more from them, special because iPad from Apple is a much polished product.

Hi everybody,

I am following since a few days the issue about the internal SD.

and I am wondering if the following is about the same error :

when I boot in recovery menu without SD CARD inserted, then VOL+ VOL- VOL+, after pushing the home button when the android with !" appears, I have the following at the screen :

E:can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1

(no such file of directory)

E: can't mount SDCARD:command

E: can't mount DEFAULT_PATH

Finding update package

E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1

(no such file of directory)

E: can't mount SDCARD:/update.zip

thanks for your help !

and thanks dexter for your work on this Folio, your work is amazing !
[Folio 100 Android Development] genepax:
Lol, it's absolutely normal when you enter the recovery with no SDcard inserted... ;)
[Folio 100 Android Development] abdrx:
thanks for your answer !

yes, for sure :D

but between the internal SDCARD and the external one, nothing is really specified ... :D
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
some of my updates, extract files first, this solution should used here, so the mbr file is placed in like /tmp before you run the script.

so command in script looks like this.

dd if = /tmp/mymbr.mbr of =/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=512 count=1

hmmm , should this conversation not be moved to "General Kernel and tweaks" now?

V1.3 final

Ok,

so the new v1.3 looks really good now.. and the custom kernel is back with CIFS support and no freezes with wifi here now!

- but i see the Orientation fix, might be less liked by users of a mouse, as the mouse co-ordinates goes into portrait mode, and really no good for regular use.

So use the "ecompass-rollback" if you people with mouse requirement need it working normally.. (I think more wants orientation to be good with games, where it works)

- Audio to headset, seems to output to speaker and headset initially, but i just re-inserted and speakers were off. so it must be faulty somewhere else..

im hitting 3000+ in Quadrant with FolioMod, so 3D and I/O cannot be better right now!

Even package installation in the beginning looks faster :-)

update:

v1.3 is now online, see Post #1 for details.

Now that FolioMod 1.3 is out and android is running smothly people can see what tegra2 is all about. I know that there are already some good games and apps, but with this kind of performance we should expect more powerfull software on the way.

I don't know if google apps market will ever be supported on Folio, but one thing is sure, Toshiba Folio turnout to be one of the best tablet in market. Sure is taking the lead and all thanks to great work of Dexter and the good will of many beta testers. I am glad I choose Folio instead of iPad.

Manufactures should understand that people won't give up on quality and will ask for continuous improvement! Sad think they don't learn their lesson, and keep doing it over and over again and delaying their products fixing.

Hi Dexter,

I am under the 1.3 final, I have done a factory reset before installing it.

For the moment, just add the AD HOC patch and folio widget patch for dual core.

both are working BUT for me , the folio needs to be reboot in order :

to make working the folio widget

to make working the adhoc patch.

about the folio widget, is the Wifi mode is working or not ?

why not including in your ROM the ADHOC feature and the foliowidget ?

i have been running v1.3 for as long as it was posted now. wifi is connecting blazing fast, almost instantly!! great work there.

may apps are really fast and the cpu load is really minimal upon initial startup.

but if u will use the folio for regular media playing like me, it might be better to reduce the dalvik cache to 32MB.

i have tested using rock player, and with current 64MB cache, it laggs and seeking is not working in both hardware and software decoding. there are audio issues as well with that kind of huge dalvik cache. but putting it down to 32M makes everything more fluid and media playback is at its best IMHO.

Thank you very much for your development, Dexter!

Bought the Folio three weeks ago to have a videochat device for my elterly mother that had no computer before and could though have contact with Smith daughter and her little son. Thought it would work with skype with the build in cam, but its not. So kept the folio her until it works for the purpose.
