Ahh, this explains why it doesn't work. Thanks so much, I'll take a crack, but hopefully I can clean up my /data partition into a proper ext4 partition with busybox and get it mounting now. I'll see tomorrow, too tired tonight.
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
Ba...ZING! Finally got ext4 driver working properly. Figured out what was causing the bootloops before, I think - or at least localized the issue.

Running an e2fsck and disabling inandop.sh seems to have done the trick. I think one of the checks in inandop.sh was triggering a reboot. My init.rd now successfully mounts /data as an ext4 partition, mount reports the partition as ext4.

What I need to do now is try to clean up inandop.sh so it properly uses the right binaries to set up the partition as a true ext4. Currently just mounting an ext3 partition with the ext4 driver.

So far no significant performance boost in Quadrant, it's within 50 points of where it was before. But I'm not done yet.
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
will it incorporate in the future Vegan release? I know we have to do complete format, and goto ext4?

Will love if we can get ext4.
[G Tablet General] stanglx:
Are you using internal or external (sd card) for the test? The internel storage is very very slow compared to most class 4 sd cards.
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
One would think that Viewsonic will atleast put class 4.. It does appear to be slow at times when you use SDCard for cache to browse..
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
Using internal SD card. I don't have an extra microSD handy here, just the one in my Nexus One, which is 16GB class 2 so probably too slow to be useful for that.

Still I'm fairly convinced that I should be able to get better results with the internal SD card.
[G Tablet General] stanglx:
Take a look.. See if your getting the same results with ext4..

Here is the output of a test:

[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
I'll do more testing later, but right now I've managed to bootloop my G Tablet and I don't have my USB cable here, it's at the office (snow day today). I can boot to recovery but it seems like ClockworkMod recovery 0.8 doesn't want to mount my external MicroSD card from my N1 to copy over a working update.zip to re-flash.

So unless I find another USB cable lying around the apartment somewhere, my G Tablet is out of commission until Monday or until I hit the nearest Radio Shack this weekend. :)
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
Status update: I am waiting on a class 6 SD card from Newegg so I can try more stuff out and perfect this without continually screwing up my internal SD card and having to repartition, reformat, etc.

In the meantime, I have tried adapting Chenglu's data2loop method to use an ext4 filesystem in the loop device files rather than an ext2 filesystem as he uses, using a kernel with ext4 enabled.

The good - I'm getting even higher Quadrant benchmarks than with the baseline data2loop. Up to around 3470, averaging around 3400 with a couple of runs. I was, with the same kernel and Chenglu's data2loop patch, getting in the 3200s to 3300s, so the difference seemed somewhat significant to me.

Unfortunately, it seems to puke out every time I reboot. The data must get screwed up somehow in the /data/ext4 files, and my G Tab goes schizo and won't even finish the bootup process - screen flickers from the "Vegan" logo during boot, and then screen shuts off. Have to hard shut-down then hard reboot to recovery and wipe data to get things working again.

The /misc/inandop.log file seems to report that data-to-loop was successfully enabled, so I'm not sure exactly why it's puking out in such epic fashion. Have to work more on this later.
[G Tablet General] stanglx:
Most likely experiencing some corruption in the cache.... add the sync command to the mount and see if that helps stability using the loopback device.... Also when you create the file system are you using

mkfs.ext4 -O ^huge_file ....

I have read you need to turn off huge_file as it causes some issues (dont remember where I read it though)
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
So just to update this thread, I did get ext4 working stably on the /data partition. The trick is doing everything from recovery mode - making the ext4 filesystem via adb push and adb shell, then flashing an update.zip from recovery that packages a kernel that supports ext4 with a ramdisk/init.rc that mounts /data as ext4 and skips the inandop.sh step entirely since that was the source of bootloops (stock inandop.sh expects /data to be ext3 and pukes if it's not).

You can see my detailed instructions over here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10489732&postcount=23

The bad news is really no significant performance bump from ext4 in the standard 2gig partition. But I expect it to be stable as hell. :) Still need to experiment more with ways to speed things up (safely).

There's a way to completely remove Windows Mobile and have only Android?

Thanks

edit: Oh in HTC diamond!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
Afraid Not. You cannot, as far as i know, eliminate Windows. You can check the status of the android threads.

As for the diamond porting, there hasn't been enough work. I want to also, but even i dont have enough time to hang around the android porting threads to give support. So...

One. Becoz' those who port are busy with their own work

Two. Newer devices have grasped more attention.

But the Kaiser thread is going strong. So you can had over there. It will provide some hope and also an actual working Android

hello

I have a gsm htc hd2 Tmobile that is bricked because I installed bad rom from htc hd2 leo.

the gsm doesnt light and doesnt access the download mode (vol down+power) and when I plug in the computer, it recognizes as Qualcomm MSM 8250.

I would buy RIFF Box JTAG with Card JTAG HTC HD2/LEO to repair (multi-com.pl), but normally riff jtag box is incompatible with MSM 8250, but they put a video showing how to fix htc with riff jtag box.

Can someone explain to me, please

thanks you

[G Tablet General] stormin:
most have given up on it and use the Tapatalk app instead, haven't heard of a fix for it.

+1 on that. I posted the same question about a month ago not even knowing tapatalk existed. Good way to go
[G Tablet General] Frrrrrrunkis:
What is tapatalk? Is it an android market app?
[G Tablet General] justauser:
The problem is landscape mode!!!!

I was having the FCs and then had a thought: what if I run the app in portrait mode. I tried and it seems to work without FCs. Added multiple favorites, read forums and articles.

EDIT: OK, opening articles is now giving FCs. Sigh....
[G Tablet General] popezaphod:
Yes. The xda app is a subset of Tapatalk, which can be used for xda and other discussion boards as well.
[G Tablet General] justauser:
MOtly works in portrait

After more use I am finding that portrait mode seems to work for reading. Just read about 20 articles from 3 gtablet forums without an FC. Before I had FCs all the time. Just leave the app in portrait. I was also NOT logged in. WIll try logged in and see if there is a difference.

I was trying to install the superuser zip file from recovery onto my nexus s.

This is the guide that i followed.

So my bootloader is unlocked.

I have pushed the recovery image over to the phone, but my recovery bootloader just looks the same.

Im guessing this is where it has failed?

PS when i type adb devices it said that no devices where found, but when i pushed the image it said that it pushed fine. any ideas?

PPS when i reboot into fastboot, it makes the sound that its connected, and PDA net is saying its connected but its not showing up under adb devices, and i cant see it in my task manager

Is there a command in terminal I can issue to turn USB debug on?

my iphone did that perfectly.

i have like 5 diff. roms in my phone, and i switch back an forth with them, and all have that problem.

is there something im missing?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duce HD2:
The fact that you're flashing between 5 different ROMs probably doesn't help with the phone in general. Iphone is the iphone......that's it, no fun:p. Mine does the same thing, if I leave the house (I normally disable WiFi because it just drains your battery to leave it on while it keeps scanning as you drive down the road) it automatically switches to tmobile data, once I get back home it stays on data, even though it's picking up WiFi.

I have to disable WiFi, then re-enable it to connect.

Here is my quick feedback on using this ROM as a TMOUS user. Very fast boot up. Much faster than my VBNDroid RC 3 ROM that I have been using the last couple of months. Phone call quality is clear and loud. A bit louder than I am used to. Signal strength is about the same. Between 3-4 bars which is typical in my home. Using the Navigation app, GPS lock is about the same time on first hot boot, about 45 seconds and that is indoors. Will report back later on battery drain.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] slbenz:
Jo-the-ripper,

Here is a follow up to my previous post this morning on the use of this ROM and battery drain experience. Using Current Widget, I see 5-7mA battery drain on standby. Peaks of 20-30mA when before I would see 70-80mA. That is WITHOUT having to press the Home key during Haret boot up. Did notice I had to do a couple of reboots in order for the standby drain to stay low. Data, WiFi, GPS all work. Battery drain with actual use around 150-200mA with a peak of 400mA when downloading an app with WiFi, GPS and 3G on. No issues loading apps such as Angry Birds onto the phone. Again, less lag with this ROM with my Android build even though Quadrant Scores were the same with the VBNDroid RC3 ROM I used before at approximately 2100. Boot up time is easily cut in half over the VBNDroid ROM using EBL in autoload plus 3 sec. to load Android. As others have said, you will not see a Windows logo anywhere when you boot up. So for someone like me who doesn't use Windows Mobile at all, this ROM gives you the actual feeling that you are booting up an Android-only phone. Will take a look and see if reducing the boot up time to something less than 3 seconds will make a difference in battery drain. Overall, I am very satisfied with this ROM. Will click the Thank You button for you for this post. Hope this is the type of information you are looking for from a TMOUS user. Just let me know what other things you may be looking for and I will test them for you.
