Can you post the output of a2sd check to verify that DT is set up and functioning correctly?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeppeMan:
a2sd is working because my apps are all on my ext3 partition, checked it in Titanium Backup. If it was not working then I hadn't enough internal memory (only 4mb) to install all my apps ;)

Tried another SD card too, same result, it's something with /data I think not wiping correctly or something.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fautpasycraindre:
Have you try to manually delete all files in /data ?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
or even just looking at the contents of that directory with ls -al /data? Should indicate all the files there, along with the size of files and directories - will also verify that all of your symlinks are in place and functioning.

Everything looks fine there, for the most part.

How many apps do you have installed? Keep in mind that each app will still have some amount of storage in /data/data - it can add up if you have 180+ apps installed.

Your /data is really high ! It should not be that big! Could you check the size of folders "app", "data" and "backup" ? (or list 1st level folder size in /data if it's ok for you)

EDIT:

In Astro app, when I go into /data it says it's empty..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fautpasycraindre:
Command is :

du -m -d 1 /data

du = disk usage

-m = size in megabytes

-d 1 = depth=1

About Astro, it's the same for some file manager as you need explicit root access. That's why before exectue "du" command, you may have to type "su" to get root privilege.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fautpasycraindre:
I don't understand !

/data = 149.3MB

/sd-ext = 105.2 MB

So /data (real size) = 149.3 - 105.2 = 44.1 MB

/data du = 7MB

44.1 - 7 = 37.1 MB missing !

I'll check closely back at home, cause i'm at work now..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeppeMan:
thx man, I hope you find the solution :)

What I don't understand is why /data is not fully wiped..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fautpasycraindre:
I don't understand where are the hidden datas !

Have you try to wipe data with clockworkmod ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
1) install the newest Amon_Ra's recovery (2.1.1 or so), try to wipe /data, see if you gain your space back.

2) install the newest Clockworkmod recovery, do the same.

3) if you still have some space missing - you might have bad blocks in internal flash memory.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
This, and you can also use the option within recovery to export the recovery.log to your SD card. You could post this log (or look through it yourself) and we could see if the wipe process encountered any bad blocks that could not be accessed.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeppeMan:
If I flash latest ClockWorkMod en boot into recovery, my screen goes black and nothing happens. Had to pull the battery out to boot normal again. Only AmonRa is working... If I search the internet it seems that this is a common issue.

Ok, wiped /data with AmonRa recovery and copied the log to SD. It doesn't look good :( Can bad blocks be fixed? Don't think so :(

What should I tell HTC? I'm flashing custom ROMs, bootloader is unlocked, bad blocks, repair it now ! xD
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
WOWSERS! Yeah, you've got a few bad blocks!

Unfortunately, there's not really much you can do to correct them. It's a hardware failure.

I want to say that I had seen a thread somewhere here where someone returned (or was going to return) a phone to HTC due to bad blocks. It IS a hardware issue, so I don't think HTC should have any problem with replacing the phone. Maybe poke around and see if you can find that thread?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeppeMan:
But how can I explain this to HTC? I can't just say that I unlocked my bootloader,.. en discovered it in a custom recovery :p

HTC -> How you know mister that you have bad blocks?

Me -> I just know it, trust me :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
My thoughts:

Bad blocks on your /data partition would affect you no matter what ROM you were running - even stock and unlocked. You could tell them that you noticed that your available internal storage was severely decreased beyond what you thought it should be. If pressed, you found troubleshooting techniques on the internet to help diagnose what the cause could be, and eventually concluded that it must be a hardware issue. Even after doing a full data wipe / factory restore, you were still unable to access the storage that you should have.

Don't lie or mislead, but do emphasize that it is a hardware issue. Try to do a factory restore (at least, flashing an official Android release) before returning it, just to give them fewer things to potentially blame.

Granted, I've yet to personally need to deal with HTC's support, but I've heard good things.

Best of luck to you.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeppeMan:
Ok thx, I will call them and explain it.

I'll report back!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeppeMan:
Ok, I called HTC.

I told I had an update to android 2.2.2 and after the reboot my internal memory was only 4mb, after that I did a factory reset, but that didn't help. Then I said I searched the internet for solutions and told that the bad blocks was a common issue.

He said that a factory reset should solve it, but in my case it didn't help :p So the bad blocks could be the reason :D

But...

I'm from Belgium and the device has to be send to United Kingdom, so it will take a long time before I get back my N1. He said that because Nexus One is from Google there is no repaircenter in Belgium... but it's still an HTC device, not?? :rolleyes:

I bought my N1 from an internet store, I will try to change my device first. If that not helps then i'm forced to send it to the repaircenter in United Kingdom.

Yesterday I received my new N1. I installed CyanogenMod 6.1.1 with app2sd and Wildmonks kernel. Everything is working like it should be :)

But i'm scared to flash other ROM's because of the bad blocks. Maybe this N1 is build in the same week like the other one. So it's possible that I have the same memory and because of that I can have the same problem.

Even if Eden sucks, and the device has software issues, as long as the device is kept open, the community will not really care to much because there will always be the option of having custom roms and the like. Notion Ink has made an amazing piece of hardware, and they should be proud of that.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lawgone:
Hi everyone, I don't know if this is the proper section to post my queries, but please bear with me.. I just registered last week.

Alright, I have some inquiries regarding the phone and all its stuff. I'm planning to buy Xperia X10 Mini and it will be the first time that I'll be using an Android-run device.

I have quite knowledge on iOS since I have an iPod Touch, so almost everything that I read here are jargons for me. I'm not that noob in terms of technical comprehension, though I don't consider myself as an advanced user, perhaps just an average hobbyist. So let me start folks.

1. I'm confused between having the X10 Mini or the X8, which is which? Any suggestions?

2. When you say "rooting" or "rooted", is it the counterpart of "jailbreaking" in iOS?

3. What will happen to my warranty if my mini is rooted?

4. Will this "rooting" thingy brick my mini? (should I failed)

5. What is xRecovery? I'm seeing a lot of those in this forum.

6. What's JiT overclock?

I'm trying to think other questions, but I guess I have to buy first that phone. :D So hopefully anyone can provide me advices, thanks in advance guys.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lawgone:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Skaldinho:
Sorry, but common sense would say to you to use search button just up here... On every of those questions you would find plenty of answers.

And your first question must be joke right? You couldn't even type X10 mini and X8 to google?

I am normaly not like that, but this was just too much for me :mad: And you even complain...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] deano309:
1. Check Settings -> About Phone -> Model Number

2. YES

3. No Idea (You could always argue an app from the market did something if you need to claim)

4. NO

5. Allows Backup/Restore options of your entire Phone memory and installation of custom roms/themes as well as more advanced features including being able to replace protected files whilst they are not being used (During boot)

6. Speeds up performance using JIT enabled files (Tried and tested)

BTW: The search or google options are indeed a good place to start for answers, I only replied because I had nothing better to do!!! LOL :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lawgone:
Thanks for the reply. Sorry for being too lazy to do research here in this forum. Well, this is not the most organized forum that i've been to.. a lot of topics that are cluttered. Besides im new to this android stuff. Anyway...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pongscript:
Yow Kabayan,

1. I'm confused between having the X10 Mini or the X8, which is which? Any suggestions?

x10mini is the small black device with small screen and builtin battery, x8 is the white device which is in middle of x10 and x10mini. though its price point is way lower than x10mini.

2. When you say "rooting" or "rooted", is it the counterpart of "jailbreaking" in iOS?

its like jail breaking but without the caveat of warranty issue. since android is an open os(if I am not mistaken)

3. What will happen to my warranty if my mini is rooted?

nothing. as long as it still working. you could re-install the rom using SEUS anyway.

4. Will this "rooting" thingy brick my mini? (should I failed)

root access is granted by using installed application, which does not affect the over all usability of the phone, though ROM modification is more likely to destroy your phone than rooting it. though rooting is required before you could install custom rom.

5. What is xRecovery? I'm seeing a lot of those in this forum.

it is a boot application which enable you to recover your phone(if only you have the image before hand), or install a custom rom to your phone(which is like recovering your phone, but instead using rom from different devices or custom made by other user/developer.

6. What's JiT overclock?

it is a new dalvik implementation stuff, which is an experimental, under-development or ongoing development for application optimization/runtime, which compile the application to native machine language. means faster games and application.

overclock is different - its more of increasing your device CPU hz.

I might be wrong on some point, but that is currently how I know the android, Im using x10 mini. my first android. though rooted, jitted, link2sd, I still haven't tried custom rom.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lawgone:
Maraming salamat kabayan!

Actually prior to your reply, I have already rooted my mini, with APP2SD + DC2SD and xRecovery.. I haven't tried the Jit stuff though, I'll still study how to do that. It's so hard to get direct answers in this forum so most of the time, I'm doing my own research. (unlike other forums that I've been to, though it's for iOS or PSP stuff)

So you are implying that custom roms are not that safe? Did I understand it right?

FYI,

It does work on my LAN on the A7. I just did a video chat between my Notebook (Win7 64bit) and the A7 using the Linux server code on my home Linux server.

Before opening (port forwarding) anything through my firewall, other than the TCP port the server runs at, does anything else need to be configured (ie - UDP forwarding, etc.)?

Also, any change you will change the server code to force a password to prevent unauthorized access from others if you run your own server?

Thanks,
