It seems like your partition is 455.6M which is fine given that some space is kept for journaling at ext3/4 filesystems.

In order to install app2sd you need to change the sh.sh, mount_sd.sh and app2sd.sh files *before* installing so that they use ext4 instead of ext2.

A better way instead of reinstalling app2sd would be to

- backup /system/sd in your /sdcard, e.g. cd /system/sd/ ; busybox tar -cvf /sdcard/sd.tar *

- format to ext4 and mount /system/sd

- restore your apps in place: cd /system/sd/ ; busybox tar -xvf /sdcard/sd.tar

- hack sh.sh and mount_sd.sh in /system/bin to use ext4 and insmod the correct modules on init

Now that I think of it, I might come up with some detailed instructions for using the filesystem modules with app2sd :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
Actually all of the three files have been edited.

I tried twice: Once with paragon hard disc manager

And once again with xrecovery's parted (formated to ext3 and then upgraded to ext4).

No luck till now. :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Is the partition accessible for writing data to it?

e.g. busybox echo "test" > /system/sd/test ; busybox cat /system/sd/test

works?

Is it mounted at startup?

So, isn't it possible to add an iptables module? I'd like to use droidwall on my mini, but it needs iptables!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
Success! I managed to set up everything right this time and it worked!

Probably i was doing something wrong, during the whole sequence.

Here is the best benchmark with ext3:

Mostly it goes around 540.

Here is a benchmark with ext4:

I got 540 also but not more than this.

ext4 is better than ext3 in terms of speed right?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Not with this kernel. Netfilter needs to be build into it and it isn't :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Glad you got it working :D

Per wikipedia it should have some speed improvements. Probably though the various parameters need to be tuned for it to come.

Hi Guys

App2sd with ext4 are working perfectly to me. :)

I was think... HTC Legend have same chipset (Qualcomm MSM7227) as x10 mini/pro and now have officially Froyo and Custom Roms with 2.2 mods...

How the dificulty to we import modules from he to our gadget, like new 3d drivers, for exemple?

Can you provide V4L2 (video for linux) module ?

Can you share kernel config for x10 mini ?

Is there a way to have NETFILTER on x10 mini ?

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Guys, there is no way for Netfilter using the kernel SE has bundled with our devices. And since we can't change the kernel we can do nothing about it, period!

The kernel needs netfilter support build IN-KERNEL and then the iptables modules that can do the actual filtering. Since the first one is missing...

I've updated the first post with the .config file I used for the posted modules which do work on my X10 mini.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Have you tried using the tun module I posted at the first post?

Which is the app that uses it and how can I replicate your issue?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sonty:
the dump is obtained using your tun module from the first post. the app is openvpn obtained from market. it's called openvpn installer there. the app provided the openvpn binary. after that I went in from adb shell as root, did insmod tun.ko and run openvpn manually with:

openvpn --config myconf.conf

it connects to my server at work, validates keys and certs and tries to raise tun0. then the device reboots.

what app did you try it with?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
I'm using VPN Connections for connecting to a vpnc network, not openvpn :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sonty:
I think I got the backtrace right:

__tun_chr_ioctl -> tun_set_iff -> tun_net_init -> random_ether_addr -> get_random_bytes -> extract_entropy(&nonblocking_pool, buf, nbytes, 0, 0);

and nonblocking_pool is probably not initialized in drivers/char/random.c

I'll try tonight to either assign a static MAC or make a module out of random.c

Any way of adding loop support?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
Hello tapan_chugh,

loop support is already there in the kernel:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/sdcard/1.img bs=1024 count=30000
mkfs.vfat /sdcard/1.img
mkdir /sdcard/test
mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0 (this is needed cause losetup picks loop devices from /dev/loop* instead of /dev/block/loop*)
mount -o loop /sdcard/1.img /sdcard/test/
df -h
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nobodyAtall:
There are plenty of File managers out there that can handle mounting FTP or SSH (SFTP) shares. This is done in user space - no need for a kernel module.

thank you for the reply. The cifs.ko module from this thread is in /system/lib/modules.

I am not sure, but.. I have installed the rom from here [ROM] Srom-2.2.1Froyo. It s based on your minicm6 - does it make a difference in modules? I dont know.. If so, then there is the problem.

I use CifsManager it says No such device.

This is not working for me. Following the above directions, as well as similar directions in an earlier post, every mount attempt results in this error message:

Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory

I've tried variations: with and without the trailing slash, as root and user, on the phone itself and through adb shell. X10 Mini Pro with stock ROM, upgraded to 2.1, rooted with SuperOneClick. Any helpful suggestions will be very welcome.

Could it be that I have an incompatible version of Busybox? I notice the "df -h" command above. On my phone, the df command does not accept the -h option.

Moderators, I'll also welcome any guidance. If this would be more appropriately posted in the Q&A forum, I will do so, after deleting this post.

Could you make a module for IPv6 please?

Some Benefits:

No matter that IPv6 isn't supported by most of our broadband and 3g providers, it doesn't matter. There are free IPv6 tunnel providers.

With IPv6 Torero it would be even possible to host servers even behind unconfigured NAT. Servers could run even on 3g. Direct connections, even 3g to 3g would be possible.

For example, if your phone gets lost or stolen, and you installed an SSH / VNC server, you could SSH / VNC your phone, you can still connect to your phone, no matter if connected behind NATed WiFi or NATed 3g. It opens the possibility to develop servers for the phone (which run also on 3g) and remote lock/wipe apps without untrusted third party servers.

[Nexus S General] X1111:
CM7 Nightlies have both font and keyboard for RTL
[Nexus S General] tobassam:
The solution - if you insist on using stock Nexus S ROM - is to root, deodex, then use the Arabic Univeral Patcher by madmack and brightidea here:

http://blog.devasque.com/?page_id=11

You will get Arabic interface, RTL auto-alignment, and correctly connected characters (the full package except Arabic keyboard).

For the Arabic Gingerbread keyboard (with suggestions), just rip the LatinImeGoogle.apk from the latest Cyanogen nightly and overwrite the one in \system\apps

You might find that you actually prefer SlideIt, SmartKeyboard, GoKeyboard, or some other Arabic-supporting market keyboard.

Another solution is to use the Cyanogen 7.1 RC1 or Nightly ROM as it already supports all of these features (maybe not the Arabic interface, not sure).
[Nexus S General] amir80:

But in froyo I have maximum of 4 bars but with signal strength of -80 to -90 dbm

Pulpoff, are you a retard? Don't answer that, we all know the answer.

Anyhow, I'm a n00b, so can,you explain to me what rooting it is? I heard it's accessing the bootloader and voiding the warranty... If you're talking about the 2.1 update, it's out already...
[XPERIA X8 General] a-k-t-w:
Rooting is gaining access to the super user privileges in Linux. That means you can access absolutely any file and /run/ any code. I'm not sure if it even touches the bootloader.

Yes, it voids your warrenty. But if you 'unroot', no one has to know. ;)

The root available for 2.1 is via custom rom (as far as I can see). That may not be ideal for everyone. It's a big pain in the ass, as you have to enter many commands yourself. There is no 'easy-to-run' script yet.

Haven't heard anything yet. I am mostly clueless about how to deodex an APK but that can be learned given time. Haven't looked into it enough. I just wonder if the camera.apk is relatively standalone or also has library / framework dependencies that will be need to deodexed as well. Hopefully nothing about the camera is tied to Gingerbread / the new GB SDK API level. If that's the case, it's totally out of my league for now.

With the fast progress being made on getting GB to run on the SGS family of phones though, I'm going to wait a bit to see if a flashable, bootable GB becomes available that includes the Camera. If that's the case, having the camera for Froyo might become a secondary concern.
