[Defy General] qwerty121:
Hello,

I test my Defy few days. Today I found first problem. I was looking at photos taken with Defy on my PC and I noticed really strong jpg compression. I went through Camera Settings and I couldn't find any option to change photo quality. What's strange this option is probably available for US users, anyway it's mentioned in manual: img683.imageshack.us/img683/7946/missingquality.jpg

In my setting I can see:

Picture Resolution

Video Resolution

Quick upload album

Exposure

Preview Time

Capture Tone

That's all. Advanced Settings menu is missing. Could you help me solve this problem?

It affect photos very strong. It's easy to find jpg arifacts at photos, sharpness is also spoiled by it.

Average size of 5MP photo from Defy is 350kB while average photo from 6MP Nikon D50 is 2.5MB

so it shows how strong is compression.

Regards
[Defy General] MarSOnEarth:
Well, we are all in the same boat, it seems. I have a T-Mobile branded USA model and these settings are absent as well.

Speaking of bugs, and there are many, the one that really irritates me is that even though network data is turned off (and WiFi is set to on and preferred), upon reboot the phone still activates network data, i.e. it ignores the setting. Every time I reboot the setting needs to be toggled on and off for it to be off.
[G Tablet General] degree210:
Real noob question here, how do I run a successful backup and restore after I used cwm to flash TnT Lite onto my gtablet. First time I did it, I backed up everything using titanium backup but upon returning to the newly flashed device I couldn't restore all of the applications and settings I backed up previously, I want to flash to 3.1.4 but I fear losing everything, again...

Help greatly appreciated!!!!
[G Tablet General] japhule:
You should make 2 backups, one in clockworkmod under "backup and restore" and one in titanium backup for your apps and system data. After making those 2 backups, copy them over to your pc to be safe. Clockworkmod backup is in the .\clockworkmod\backups\[date backup was made) folder. Titanium backup is in the .\TitaniumBackup folder.
[G Tablet General] degree210:
but how do I make get all my apps and settings restored...? I have the backups, but how do I restore them, do I do it through cmw??:confused:
[G Tablet General] japhule:
From a fresh ROM install, install Titanium Backup. Within Titanium backup, go to the Backup/Restore tab, then press the menu button, select Batch, then you will have options to restore your apps and settings.
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
It has been recommended by the devs to not restore anything but your apps and their data. Don't restore system data from another rom.
[Wildfire General] hoxon:
Hi guys,

I have to say, since I bought the Wildfire I'm amazingly unhappy.

This phone is seriously ****.

It's slow, it freezes, it crashes, it reboots by itself.

Today I tried to do a factory reset.

I used MyBackup to do a backup of everything.

Obviously it was a failure: it didn't save the apps, so now I have to reinstall everything by myself. It didn't save the data of the apps. I lost nothing important, only the data of some stupid game, but I lost it. It saved apparently all my data and settings.

I restored the contacts and now I have another problem.

They are duplicated. I delete from my gmail accounts the duplicates, but they are still there on the phone. And the ****ing phone synchronizes again all the contacts to my gmail account. And over and over and over.

Is there any solution to this problem beside removing manually on my phone? There are more than 300 duplicates!
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
Turn auto sync off... Is that so hard? As for the slowness, nothing wrong about mine or most other peoples phones.

When youre restoring your contacts make sure you only list to display one of your accounts e.g your gmail acc

This is obviously a user end problem and not the phone.
[Wildfire General] hoxon:
Turning off Auto sync doesn't fix the problem. It just avoids the problem. I already did it!!!

In this way, I will not able to sync anymore my contacts to Gmail since as soon as I started autosync again it starts again to sync in only one direction!

Yes sure, an end user problem caused by the lack of functions of the phone.

And for the slowness....probably you missed all the comments about people overclocking and complaining about it.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
The overclocking complaints aren't about the phone being slow, its just not working on some sense roms. And imo the phone has all the necessary functions. Perhaps you should get it fixed.
[Wildfire General] Drdroidlove:
Whenever i feel my wildfire is sluggish, i back up the phone, do a full factory reset and flush a new rom. Makes a huge difference. Sadly i still havent figured how to solve the duplicated..... no quadriplicated contacts that appear.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
i think you guys should do a factory reset, add all your contacts once, back them up to sd card, and then when you install a rom, don't sync your contacts, just import them from the sd card file.

although i haven't had any issues with duplicates with syncing my contacts anyway. :S
[Wildfire General] kennyhkw:
Must admit the phonebook setup is a bit pish on the Android system, it tries to link everything together when all you want is just a simple phonebook with peoples numbers and emails.

So i've spent ages deleting all duplicates and unlinking ****. Finally after a number of hours it resembles a simple phonebook with people linked only to there facebook accounts and nothing else. Sometimes the software just tries too hard!
[Wildfire General] argeoff:
Did you sync facebook contacts ? I would recommend you to not do so. Facebook gave me quite a problem with contacts when i just got the phone.

Other than that, google contacts sync works just fine for me.
[Wildfire General] hoxon:
Finally the continuous synchronization stopped. I was able to remove duplicates from my gmail account. But....surprisingly several contacts disappeared. I used the "merge duplicates" function on Gmail.

Now I installed again the backup I did. My phone book is not synchronizing at all with gmail. Moreover, something else happened. It is not synchronizing with Facebook. When I go to view it says Facebook for HTC sense 0 contacts. But if you go do Online directory, they are there! But I cannot see to link in the contacts.

Oh yeah, obviously I still have 4 contacts per person. :(
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] jentzschman2000:

[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
This patch allows mounting of NTFS volumes through vold (i.e the disk is automatically mounted when pluged into the device).

Mountpoint is:

/mnt/sdcard/usb<disk-number>-disk0

Known issues:

- NTFS volumes are mounted read-only, this has been explicitly added to the vold to prevent data loss or filesystem corruption until we know that the patch is stable.

Tested on FolioMod v1.3c

Installation:

copy zip file to your sdcard, rename to update.zip and flash using recovery.

vold-update-0.2.zip - this is the patch for vold containing ntfs support

vold-rollback.zip - rollback to default FolioMod 1.3 vold

source-0.2.zip - source code for updated vold

v0.1

- Initial release

- Ntfs support, multiple disks working

v0.1.1

- make sure that the mount point directory exists, create if necessary

v0.2

- multiple partitions are working

- fixed asec handling as discussed

- mount point directories are removed, when unmounting disk (if empty)
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
I know vold also handles sdcard + multiple usb stick is that part still included?

and the strange vold.fstab with wildcards? otherwise it will be hard to use for a toshiba rom, i think.
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
Yes this should all be still included, until now I had no issues with my sdcard.

What the patch does is try to mount everythin with FAT like before, if that fails, it tries NTFS.

The vold.fstab is still included, only change is what partitions should be mounted, this was 'all' before and has been changed to 'auto' (as the 'all' seems to be a toshiba addition)

Still need to figure out how to use this, hope to get a new disk on Monday, so I can test that.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Nemo0815:
Could that also help recognizing some strange formatted SD cards? E.g. I have a digicam (Panasonic) that modifies the FAT32 somehow that the folio tells me the card is defective (but still works perfectly fine in Windows or the Digicam)?
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
I doubt it, as nothing has changed for sdcard.

But as this vold is compiled with additional debug output you may as well trry to use it. Maybe the output will give some more information on what is going wrong.

But I guess this is because your cam actually uses the "secure" part in your Secure Digital Memory Card. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#DRM_features for more info on that.

Is write supported already or is only for read?

Can large files be read?!?! (i mean no laggy?)

Thanks
[Folio 100 Android Development] TaLL84:
Great job, thank you very much Mr. Weeds!
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
OK partition support is somehow working now, but not really a solution I like to release.

Looks like vold was not intended to handle that.

The main reason for this post is, that the handling of /mnt/asec and /mnt/asec_secure is somewhat bad (again vold was not intended to even handle multiple external storage devices at the same time)

Just to make sure anyone know what that is: Apps2SD stores the packages in that folder.

At the moment vold will create (and mount) an asec container for every storage device attached to the folio. So if I insall an app (or move it manually) with SDCard inserted it will use the asec dir of the SDCard. If I install an app without SDCard it will use the asset directory of the internal storage.

The problem is it seems I cannot change on the fly between those two directories. If I unmount SDCard /mnt/asec does not contain the package if put there. So I need to take out the SDCard and reboot the device.

Fixing this behaviour would be quite simple. The question rather is where to put it?

Internal storage or SDCard?

The same question goes for what should be the default SDCard (i.e. the one mounted under /sdcard, the one where apps download their resources). Internal Storage or external SDCard.

The one thing I can think of is creating a selection setting within the settings app where I can select which device should be mounted as primary SDCard.

If that is switched the systrem may copy contens from asec to the new device.

So the layout of /mnt may look like that

/mnt/sdcard (linked to /sdcard) - the primary sdcard device as selected by the user (defaults to internal storage)

/mnt/sdcard2 - well, the other one (either internal or sdcard depending on what the first device is)

/mnt/usb-storage/usb<disk-number>-disk<partition-number> - hdd's mounted over USB

Just waiting for anyone to come up wither other/better ideas...
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
proper behaviour would be internal storage for apps.. as its not nice that the apps you install disappear if you remove the sdcard or usbsticks.

i noticed this problem early on..but no one mentioned it as a problem.

do you see why the .android_secure mountpoint does not happen?

i think somehow this relate to the problem of downloading paid apps.
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
If this is OK for everyone, then this would be a much simpler approach, so /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard always point to internal storage.

If someone needs more storage (i.e. for downloaded resources) we may simply create a tool wich does some linking (e.g. link /sdcard/gameloft to /sdcard2/gameloft)

The mount point for asec_secure exists as well, 2 times with the same issues as asec. I don't know if this is related to paid apps. According to the logs I get a 403 response from the google servers.

Is there any specific reason, why SDCard is put under /sdcard/sdvcard-disk0?

I'd like to move that to /mnt/sdcard where usb-storage will go as well.

Using that approach it might be unessesary to unmount the external storage when a USB-connection is made.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
normally its a good reason.. the Toshiba filemanager looks at a location where all users got access..

no regular user would look into a /mnt/sdcard2 unless the toshiba pointed to the location.

so /mnt/sdcard offers both internal storage + sdcard + usbstick here which i think works well and all users easily find it as its within the sdcard default location.

i dont think that logic should change..
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:

From weeds2000:

"This patch allows mounting of NTFS volumes through vold (i.e the disk is automatically mounted when pluged into the device)...."

Many thanks.

[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
OK, so I was wrong, this is from the kernel documentation on NTFS Write support.

So it looks like ntfs-3g is the way to go, this will take some time however.

I played around with various disks today, watched a movie, etc... Seems like everything is OK, so I would consider 0.2 be a candidate for regular use.

ntfs-3g for android

Hello,

I have ntfs-3g up and running on my tablet with write only support :D.

The next thing it will be to make it more functional and add vold support.

I see that you already added support to vold for ntfs. ntfs-3g will wrap it up.

In order to read and write ntfs volumes with arm Android the following files are required to be installed into Android device:

vvv.megaupl0ad.c0m/?d=ZVFSI4HQ (please edit the download link)

/system/fuse.ko

/system/ntfs-3g

/system/lib/libntfs-3g.so.80

Mounting the ntfs volume is done by the following command on my tablet:

/system/ntfs-3g /dev/block/vold/179:1 /sdcard

Salutari.
[Folio 100 Android Development] GTablet:
Hi weeds2000,

When will this become read and write? Do you have a date in mind?
[Folio 100 Android Development] weeds2000:
I'll try the ntfs-3g libraries posted by finitesolutions during the next days. If they work, r/w should be a matter of mounting the filesystem with ntfs-3g instead of the kernel ntfs driver.
