[Q] I m quite confuse.. may i knw what is the partition SD card for?

i saw ext 3 , ext 4.. what i thi all abt.. i m quite confuse ahaha

so i should use ext 3 or 4?? what diff
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Depends on the ROM that you're using. They're used to store your apps that you've downloaded (A2SD+/DATA2SD) and Ext3/4 are just speed variations, I think.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
it for storing programs and data on instead of using the internal nand memory which can soon run out if you are using a eu hd2 with only 512
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] harky:
Does it mean that rom with A2SD+/DATA2SD I had to set my card with partition ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] harky:
uppppppppppppppppppp
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
yes, you should create on your sd card a fat partition, and an ext4 (or ext3, shouldnt matter)

then install your fresh nand build, and it will autodetect the ext partition and treat it as phone memory, leaving the fat partition to act as the 'sd card'.

so, when you instal an app, install uit to phone, not sd card, and it will actually end up on the ext partition, and the phone will treat it as if its in its internal rom.

When you browse with a filemanager, you will not see a seperate ext partition, because it is integrated into the system, but you will see an sd card listed, which is the fat partition.

The other plus side is when you install a different rom, when it boots any apps found on the ext partition will already be installed.

This all happens automatically, so long as you have an ext partition, and a rom that supports it. you do not need (and nor should you) go into teh app settings and choose move to sd card. if you do that it will move to teh fat partition, which defeats the object.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzard1017:
I think a dev was attempting to port over a ROM for the Vibrant but I didn't follow the thread enough to know the results. I agree though, I love the music app.

Have you nosed around the Android Dev section on XDA?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regP:
Yeah I'm pretty sure the M Flagship project in the Dev section is the closest you'll be getting to MIUI for now.

Hi all,

first of all, scuse my english, I'm French ;)

I've got a NAS, Dlink DNS323.

There is two volume inside. one in raid 0 for my data's back up, and an other one (called Volume_2) for my mp3 and movies (folders MP3 and folder films).

I'd like to acces the Volume_2 in cifs with my desire HD.

So I configured my nas a UPnP server, and share the entire Volume_2.

I dowloaded and installed mount manager, and it work perfectly with a share folder on my laptop.

But I can't connect my nas. I guess it's my munt path, but I'm not sure.

Could you help me please?

I tried many path (with my network account, and my root account).

for example this :

//192.168.1.XX/Volume_2/MP3

//192.168.1.XX/MP3

//192.168.1.XX/mnt/MP3

etc...

I've got always the same error message : munting Mypath on MyMobilePath failed: no such device.

I hope that someone can help me, I could be very cool to acces to my media files like this.

Thank in advance

DaD
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
I don't want to sound condescending, but you are on the same network with your phone, right? I.e. wifi? Otherwise, a 192.168.x.x network is not route-able outside your firewall.
[Android Software Development] DaD92:
it's ok, I'm asking for help, so... ;)

Yes my mobile phone is connected at the same wifi network.

if I use a browser with the adresse http://192.168.1.XX, I can access to my nas configuration...
[Android Software Development] stepsch:
Maybe the cifs support option in the kernel of your phone is not enabled.

I am using clockworkmod v2.5.1.0. Cifs support is in the TWEAK menu in recovery mode.

After enabling I can set the path (similar to yours) in the app CifsManager and mount the mp3 share.
[Android Software Development] DaD92:
I'm sorry but my english is not good enought.

did you tel me to :

reboot in recovery mode

activate the cifs management using the tweak menu

and try again with those path?
[Android Software Development] stepsch:
Attention please! I am on Samsung Galaxy - I don't know if there is a similar option for your device!!

Yes.

In the so called "ClockworkMod recovery" you will find some submenu when booted into recovery mode.

Choose

-> "advanced Speedmod ULK features"

-> "TWEAK options"

-> "Enable CIFS support" and reboot

In Cifs Manager try the same path to your network share agan.

But you have the have that clockworkmod installed. I don't know other options to get CIFS support running.
[Android Software Development] DaD92:
I tried, i've got the clockworkmod v2.5.1.3 installed on my device.

I didn't have advanced Speedmod ULK features submenu in.

Obvioulsy not the good version....
[Android Software Development] stepsch:
I searched a lil bit - and it seems that there is no comfortable way like on the samsung.

maybe this will help http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=821717&highlight=cifs.ko

Or search the HD forum for cifs.
[Android Software Development] DaD92:
I'm not very good with all this linux things...I'm a little noob in there.

But, I understood cifs works on cooked rom.

I may have to intall one of them, it's seam to be easier ;)

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] maverick757:
Hey guys,

I got an old HTC Touch Diamond (Vodafone germany) from my neighbour and wanted to put a new WM6.5 Rom on it. I run a Windows XP PC and have a connection via Active Sync to my Touch Diamond and have disabled my firewall.

First I've installed HardSPL 1.30 signed by OliNex because my Diamond is runnig the rom it was delivered with.

After I've succesfully installed HardSPL 1.30 signed I wanted to install the radio v1.00.25.05 using http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=407956.

I've tried it several times but my phone stucks at 0% after the colored screen.

Then I wanted to install OliNex 1.93 unsigned to run every rom I want. But when I tried this the RUU.exe says Erro202 no connection, but Active Sync is enabled on the phone and windows has a green active sync connection. I now wanted to ask where my fault is and which HardSPL version I've to use to run a Custom WM6.5 rom.

When I downloaded OliNex 1.93 HardSPL unsigned there was just a RUU_Signed.nbh in the archive, so I replaced it with the RUU_Sigend.nbh in the Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex from a signed 1.30 HardSPL where a RUU.exe was.

Even if I want to re-flash the 1.30 HardSPL RUU.exe says Error202.

What can I do? I just want to run a new custom rom...

Regards,

maverick757
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
you need to use JUMP SPL....in order to pass onto the HSPL 1.93

Since you are using HSPL 1.30 it is not allowing. That is why we need to JUMPL the hard coded 1.30 SPL

Follow this exact post which i have posted 1 hr earlier....

continue from the instructions part...

No you will not lose your unlock. I however cannot verify if the new OTA(from official release) does this. The current posted ROMS will not.

[EVO 4G General] Zorachus:
I am a phone addict, always upgrading once per year :) Currently loving my rooted EVO with Myn's rom, and before that had the Nexus-One, and previous to that the iPhone3G.

I am hoping there will be a EVO-2 this Summer, Sprint would be foolish not to have a next gen phone like that to market next to the iPhone5. I think the two best phones released in 2011 will be the EVO-2 and iPhone5. Ok what do you think each of these phones will come with ?

- EVO-2; Dual core...1gb ram...AMOLED screen...Android 2.4 or newer OS...better battery

- iPhone5; Dual Core...1gb ram...larger 4" screen...Widgets finally...best longest lasting battery...

I am an Android fan, but would go back to the iPhone, if the 5th one has a 4" or larger screen, adds widgets, and adds notification system...and still be a thin phone with long lasting battery, but I am not sure if Apple will make that many changes to it ?
[EVO 4G General] _MetalHead_:
I'll be pissed if the successor to the EVO has an amoled screen.
[EVO 4G General] kamtsa:
I would not mind to have a larger than 4.3" screen.

Also, will be really surprise if iPhone5 will have the same small screen as iPhone4.

Since Nexus S has NFC, I expect other Android vendors to follow but this is a speculation.

Extended battery life will also be nice. This could be a good differentiation point for Android vendors.
[EVO 4G General] TorxT3D:
4.5"+, dual core, 3d, hdmi, widi, dlna, amoled, 8mp front/back, class 6+ sd card included, 3d surround speakers, top mounted 3.5" headphone jack, triple flash, pico projector... lol.. okay i'll stop now.

New slogans for the next evo.

"You just got EVO3D"

"Have you EVOLV3D?"
[EVO 4G General] Zorachus:
Well the EVO was a flagship Android device when it released last June. Having the top spec's for it's time, and still today 7 months later, it's not even close to outdated yet. So here's hoping this Summer they released a top of the line hardware phone for 2011, in the EVO-2.

Now I am an Android guy, but could be tempted to go back to iPhone on the 5th generation possibly. But for me #1, a larger screen is a must have, 3.5" is way too small in today's market. I would not care at all if the iPhone5 grew slightly larger, that's ok, but still keep it thinner than the EVO. If Apple allowed the same features standard that you get from jailbreaking, I would jump on board A.S.A.P. but again it has to have a bigger screen too.

But would rather a EVO-2 come out.
[EVO 4G General] Zorachus:
I think if there is an EVO-2 this Summer, it will be the best phone of 2011, unless the Nexus-3.0 by HTC comes out at Christmas, that could take top.

For me to ever go back to Apple, or even think about a new iPhone, the 5th gen would have to have some pretty big changes, I am not sure Steve Jobs will do. #1 it must have a larger screen, 3.5" is a joke. #2 add some form of Widgets to the iOS. #3 add a true Notification system, with real multitasking. Or just allow the Jailbreak community to legally do all the cool stuff. I have seen jailbreaked iPhone4's, and they are night and day cooler than the stock i4.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James.q:
Hi guys,

this might be really noobish question, but I hear a lot people talking about partitioning their SD card and I dont really understand what that means.. I tried to search, but all I could find were a ways of doing it rather than what it really is.

Now the issue: I have SGS with 32gb nokia class 2 SD card. So far I had only one issue with the card and that is when I put video files on it (no matter what format mp4, avi, mvk and so on) there is always a point in the video, when the it shows a lagy squared-like screen and skips like 1-3 minutes of video which really bugs me :/. Also, sometimes when I put flv files on it, they just stop after playing for some time (lag) and only audio goes on with video stuck.

I never had the problem when putting the files on internal SD card, they just play along..

as for the partitioning, should I partition ? Some simple definiton would be helpfull :) What are the benefits/risk of it ?

thank you very much !!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveStalker:
the video lag and the skipping maybe do to the fact that your sd card is class2 or it's ajust an older model don't know for sure i have a 16 gb class6 sdhc and i'm playing 720p video file downloaded from youtube and mkv and other stuff without any lag borrow from one of your friend an sd card and see if there's any difference as for partitioning your card i don't see the point in doing that
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James.q:
well I dont think that would be the case, because it handles saving 720p video from camera and than playing it without problems. The issue is not lagging, its more like skipping the part of a movie or, when playing flash not finishing the movie...

do you think I should try to return the card ? Because I really cant use a card for movies and thats pretty much everything beside music I have it for..

Hi.

I bought (in Bangkok) what I thought was a new Desire. It looked new and packaged etc. Joined this forum to root my phone and discovered it had MoDoCo r8.

Well, ok. I have Superuser on etc. When I go to boot it shows S-On. I am trying to delete some useless Google apps with File Manager but it says...."Permissions denied". Is this because of the S-On? If so..............How do I get S-Off? I am seriously panicking over 'bricking' my phone. :(

Reason I want to delete apps is because I keep getting warning messages about 'Low memory'.

I have App 2 SD and have moved what I can.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Try other programs with SU (like shoot me) to see if you have SU rights.

Also maybe a given progam you want to delete has started, and ca't delete because of that. Go and see if it is running and try to delete it after shut down.

However som custom ROMs won't allow you to delete some apps after flashed (I always remove them before flashing).

The easiest way to S-off is using Alpharev.nl (Stock ROM recommended).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Deleting apps on the system partition does not give you any extra space. Since you already have a custom rom, you are rooted and should be able to flash a rom with A2SD+. More info about A2SD+.

Also if you fear bricking your devices I suggest you don't S-off since you have no reason to do so.

Limit how frequently I allow my apps to sync

Turn off mobile data when on wifi
[Captivate General] jaydeekay:
how do you limit the syncing? in 'accounts and sync'? or each app?
