Dexter, I have a problem.

After trying to install on my folio 100 one of your updates, the device has failed to recognize the internal memory (internal storage damage). Is there any way to fix the error?

Also, when I try to update with your latest version, the installation is aborted and do not know why.

Thanks
[Folio 100 Android Development] rccheca:
Hola amigo Español,

Para arreglar esto tienes que leer la primera entrada de este post, en la sección de parches hay uno para formatear de nuevo la memoria interna en esta linea:

Generic format internal storage for all mods (so far) here, only needed if you got internal storage problems.

Saludos.

Now, translate to English:

Hi, you must read more :D.
[Folio 100 Android Development] underwear69:
De acuerdo.

Una vez que me bajo el archivo, lo copio en la tarjeta SD cambiando el nombre a update.zip.

Inicio Folio 100 e intento actualizar el sistema a traves de la tarjeta en el apartado que dice update.zip, sin poder conseguirlo porque la instalacion se aborta.

Si no es asi la forma de hacerlo , podrias decirme como lo hago?

Por cierto ,si aun no conoces el paraiso,no dejes de venir a Almeria en el sur de España,te encantara

Okay.

Once I get off the file, copied to the SD card update.zip renaming.

Home Folio 100 and try to update the system through the card in the section that says update.zip, unable to get it because the installation is aborted.

If it is not the way to go, you could tell me how I do it?

By the way, if you do not know the paradise, do not forget to come to Almeria in southern Spain, you will love
[Folio 100 Android Development] kakkio:
if I remember when you download 1.3 beta the update.zip is inside the ...zip. U have to extract update.zip inside your sd card and follow the instruction.

I hope it's so because I have already installed 1.3 and deleted the zip file.

i've tryed a gps bluetooth and work, firefox, quicksshd its all ok. How i can change lang in Italian? cause whenever i try to change this setting i did'n save.

Compliments for your great work, i would like to contribute with € and sending bug, how???

Another performance increase is coming your way! (3100+ watermark breach!)

the 3100+ quadrant watermark breach

the viewsonic community seemed to have found some better nvidia drivers and i have so far tested it on FolioTntMod which gives me 400+ extra compared to avg. 1750 going up to 2150 now.

and thats all without any filesystem improvements, so just imagine adding this and we might hit 3000+ in quadrant scores in both IO and 3D performance improvements!!

update:

I just tested the 1.3 filesystem performance addon here, and i get 3123!!! so magic happens!! (do note, it has "defaults" issue, as preferences seems messed up, but in theory it improves alot)
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
really vierd how many people start having internal storage issues?

anyways try the "format internal storage" patch in Post #1 , it only format internal back to a regular fat32 filesystem.
[Folio 100 Android Development] kakkio:

[Folio 100 Android Development] rccheca:
I've tried , but the problem is that my internal SD has lost partitions, just have one, so the command / system / bin / newfs_msdos / dev/block/mmcblk0p8 does nothing because the partition 8 does not exist.

I hit the fdisk output.

sh-4.1# busybox fdisk /dev/block/mmcblk0

busybox fdisk /dev/block/mmcblk0

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1927.

There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,

and could in certain setups cause problems with:

1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)

2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs

(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
im getting a little scared here now... if you only got 1 partitionon mmcblk0 how is your folio booting now?

can you traceback exactly when this happened and maybe how it started . like was a sdcard ejected? did you press unmount /sdcard in settings?

or something that can explain how the sudden the mbr of your internal sdcard is suddenly wrong?

this is really getting serious..

I need to get all details on this, if its somehow related to 1.3 in some way or even a incorrect reboot or something..

@rccheca

[Folio 100 Android Development] Arthur_Geek:
There's no link with 1.3 for me.

It happened on FolioTNTMod, three boots after installing this mod. Unfortunately, I don't remember what I did before... Nothing really unusual I guess.

I'm sorry I can't tell you more about this, but the Android SDK doesn't want to be installed on my sid, so no adb for me :(.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
there's some very old thread's on how to fix the .inf files for android SDK so you can use adb in windows.. i dont have the link or time to search for it, but it originate with reference to "G tablet" and how to enable adb.. so you might just look in the "Viewsonic gtablet" section for the solution.

i also have the same problem of internal sd card, i was using foliotntmod after i started it last morning, the day before everything worked good, no card ejected or unmounted, only 1 crash with a flash video on youtube.

so what can i do ?
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i have been working on TntMod for the last many hours, and doing all kinds of optimizations here, and i havent had any internal storage issue.

and checking the device, it still looks good here. and i rebooted quite a few times and also not-so-nice reboots (i think), but still works fine..

did you use any "format sd" commands or options? was any specific app installed that could want to change some sdcard or so?
[Folio 100 Android Development] shpitz:
I do not think that's from the FolioTNTMod I installed FolioTNTMod then rollback all versions back to release 0.2A to identify the crazy button issue and Everything is functioning correctly now.

Tell the truth I am not correct in 1.3 because I had a bad feeling because of the mess with the Filesystem, I'm waiting and reading the tests of all members to

See if I recognize a problem until now I do not recognize something Systematic.

I use the device at Work to display a network sketch schemes did not want to reach a state of disuse.
[Folio 100 Android Development] rccheca:
Hi, I really do not know when the error has happened, but is not a problem with the FolioMod 1.3. I had installed TNTMod 0.3 and everything was going very well. This morning I received a new 16GB SD Class 10 and have been doing backups of the app and data to install FolioMod 1.3. Is my first memory 16GB and I do not know if you can have something to do. Everything OK. While I have extracted external SD , I think. I turned off the Folio, and turned on, and take me out the error of failure in internal memory.

I tried to install the format update, same error. I installed the FolioMod 1.3 and same error.

Boot well but fails sd internal memory. Then I looked at the format patch, to see what does, checked my partitions and have seen that there is only one partition!!!!.

The Folio mount the partition as a /system, so it boot well, I think, but has no data or cache, or free memory.

But the disc looks good, if it had an error in the MBR ,I could not install anything on system, I think, but that has all the space on a FAT partition instead of having the 8 that it should.

I think the solution is to partition the internal SD again, but I do not know if you can do with a update.zip or we must be find a creative solution.

It happened to me the problem when installing on my device FolioTNTmod.Desde then there is an error in recognition memory.

The subsequent installation of Folio 1.3 is incomplete and I think every time I start the device I have to install the application package.

[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
right now, i'm just thinking...

because normally you would need the "nvflash" to change the partition table layout.. and that seems not to work for us on folio100 only seen running fine on AC100 .

One idea is (but probably no good idea)

using fdisk, to configure all partitions, and see if a "w" actually writes the new partition table..

But im not sure i would do it here.. but if no one else got ideas or some explanation, maybe its the only way to try something..

[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
sadly that will not work.. i am looking at the dumps of partitions from 1 and up and they show nothing, more like a clean partition with 0..

i think the BCP table and bootloader partition somehow is write-only somehow as it seems to work from recovery.. but so far i dont recommend dumping any partition and rewrite them..

at least its still booting, if you write an empty partition you can easily brick it, when we havent got the solution.
[Folio 100 Android Development] rccheca:
Yes,this is one of solution i think maybe works, but the question is, Can start the recovery whitout the system partition?
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
yes, and you should have adb enabled default in recovery..

it uses shell from the ramdisk, so it works fine. but of course references to some commands are still in /system/bin so you're limited to busybox cmd's
[Folio 100 Android Development] rccheca:
I find other posible solution, someone can execute this command?, and after put in the forum.

busybox dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0.mbr bs=512 count=1

This is the MBR of mmcblk0, i can try to put in my folio to restore the partition.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:

regarding the 1.3, I would rather get a clean install with graphics performance boost than just "fix" the prefs issue.

The non-existing lib the flash player is looking for, might it cause crashes during intensive flash requirements?
