when you connect your phone via cable to the pc does it make that sound to show that a device has been connected?

if not, try other usb ports. it should come up in the notification area (aka system tray) that a device can be unplugged.

I'm trying to make an auto install script within the initramfs. I've got everything working, including automatic fdisk, but I cannot get mkfs.ext4 to work on the Android kernel, and there is no version of Busybox with the ext4 applet. Does anyone have a mkfs.ext4 that runs successfully on Android? When I run it from a terminal the output is

mkfs.ext4: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")

Here's my code if you want to see what I'm doing.

mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /tmp/mnt
if [ -f /tmp/mnt/mysticfw.tar.gz ]; then
$FDISK /dev/mmcblk0 < /home/fdisk.input
$MKFS_EXT4 -O ^huge_file /dev/mmcblk0p2
mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /tmp/tmproot
mkdir /tmp/tmproot/itworks
tar -xzvf /tmp/mnt/mysticfw.tar.gz -C /tmp/tmproot/
sync
#rm /tmp/mnt/mysticfw.tar.gz
umount /tmp/tmproot
fi
sync
umount /tmp/mnt

It automatically partitions the stock Android block and installs a tar.gz from the internal storage to simplify my unsquashed 2.1.4 filesystem install, and the only part I can't get working is mkfs.ext4.
[Gen8 Android Development] msticninja:
Found one! It's 3 MBs though, so if anyone has a smaller one, it would be very nice.
[Gen8 Android Development] shklifo:
Why do you don't use the mke2fs from Uruk for example (the easiest way) asking $auron if it's ok for him. His size is only 49KB.

Find it like the following on Uruk installation:

[COLOR="DarkRed"]
# mkfs.ext4 -V
mke2fs 1.41.3 (12-Oct-2008)
Using EXT2FS Library version 1.41.3
# find / -name mke2fs | xargs ls -l
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30584 Dec 15 03:46 /system/bin/mke2fs
[B]-rwxr-xr-x 5 root root 49248 4 Jan 15 13:14 /usr/local/sbin/mke2fs[/B]

#/usr/local/sbin/mke2fs -V
mke2fs 1.41.3 (12-Oct-2008)
Using EXT2FS Library version 1.41.3
[/COLOR]

and don't forget to add "-l" on FDISK command and change the device mmcblk0 with mmcblk1 ;) on the lines:

$FDISK /dev/mmcblk0 < /home/fdisk.input
$MKFS_EXT4 -O ^huge_file /dev/mmcblk0p2

Cheers,
[Gen8 Android Development] msticninja:
Why didn't I think of that? Thanks.

But regarding mmcblk0/1, I'm replacing the stock Android, so the fdisk.input file contains the commands to delete mmcblk0p2 and p3, and make a new partition in the unused space. I hate using space on my Internal Storage, so I'm using Archos' space. :)
[Gen8 Android Development] shklifo:
If you are using the mmcblk0p2 as rootfs as you say (and you are expanded tar archive on mmcblk1p2), than you have to change the line:

with

;)
[Gen8 Android Development] msticninja:
I know, that's my current data partition, I'll change it once I'm done testing. The tar file just has a test file in it, so when I boot back into block1, I can see if the IF statement was executed by seeing if it was extracted to block1. I'll also have to change etc/mountpoints once testing is actually finished.

One more question since you're so quick. :) I think I have everything working, except it needs a reboot in between the fdisk and mke2fs commands to reload the partition table. I'm trying to use partprobe instead of rebooting, but it hasn't been cross compiled to work on Android, AFAIK. Have you seen a way to reload the MBR without rebooting?
[Gen8 Android Development] wdl1908:
I'v been looking at the recovery_lib.sh in the recovery boot image and can't find anything special to re-read the partition table. And yes they also use fdisk to repartition. So I suspect the driver for the block device does not cache the MBR and you can just mke2fs after the partition table is created.

I can't remember from what firmware that recovery boot image was but I think it's from the 2.1.04 and they do some repartitioning there for the swap space.

I'll check it again and get back to you.
[Gen8 Android Development] wdl1908:
I just checked the recovery image from 2.1.04 and after the fdisk commands there is nothing to re-read the MBR the next commands executed are mount commands to check if the fs is present I suggest you look at the /etc/scripts/recovery_lib.sh yourself it could give some clues on how to do things.
[Gen8 Android Development] shklifo:
For me too, it have nothing to do with a reboot to load partitions table and access partition to format them with the choised filesystem.

You can delete any partition on linux (except rootfs one ;)), recreate them and directly format them as you like, reboot isn't necesary.
[Gen8 Android Development] msticninja:
Thanks for all the replies, very helpful, but I'm stuck. :) Fdisk seems to use ioctl to reload the partition table, so you don't need a reboot if everything on the device is unmounted before writing the partition table, but I'm having very strange issues with mke2fs now. I've had the whole thing work twice now, but when I flash back to stock, then retry the script, it usually does everything except the formatting. Here's the code:

mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /tmp/mnt
if [ -f /tmp/mnt/mysticfw.tar.gz ]; then
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
umount /dev/mmcblk0p2
umount /dev/mmcblk0p3
umount /dev/mmcblk0p4
fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 < /home/fdisk.input
mv /tmp/mnt/mysticfw.tar.gz /tmp/mnt/mysticf.tar.gz
sync
umount /tmp/mnt
log_and_reboot
fi

if [ -f /tmp/mnt/mysticf.tar.gz ]; then
rm /etc/mtab
touch /etc/mtab
mke2fs -T ext4 -O ^huge_file /dev/mmcblk0p2
mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /tmp/tmproot
tar -xzf /tmp/mnt/mysticf.tar.gz -C /tmp/tmproot/
sync
mv /tmp/mnt/mysticf.tar.gz /tmp/mnt/mysticdone.tar.gz
umount /tmp/tmproot
rm /etc/mtab
ln -s /proc/mounts /etc/mtab
fi
sync
umount /tmp/mnt

I have it reboot after the fdisk just in case, and the fdisk works perfectly, so the second IF/THEN is the issue. I had to retouch the mtab just to make sure it's empty, as mke2fs fails if mtab doesn't exist(at least in terminal), then I relink it to /proc/mounts as they do in the stock firmware. Here's my mke2fs.conf:

[defaults]
base_features = sparse_super,filetype,resize_inode,dir_index,ext_attr
blocksize = 4096
inode_size = 256
inode_ratio = 16384

Is there a way to echo the output from my script to a file like dontpanic so I can see what the error is?
[Gen8 Android Development] shklifo:
Simple append (">>") and "echo" doesn't work to a redirected logfile?
[Gen8 Android Development] msticninja:
I've only learned what I've needed to learn over the years, usually with endless google searches and reading through man pages, so I've never tried to log outputs, because I could always see the output in a terminal or onscreen during boot. Android is the first time I haven't been able to actually see the boot process. :)

Once again, thanks for your help. I probably could've googled this, but I kind of asked as an afterthought. I didn't even think about redirecting. So if the mke2fs line is the one I want to log, I just add "2&>> /tmp/mnt/logfile" to the end of it, right?

Also, thanks for your original thread about booting from Internal Storage, I never got around to developing on Android until you posted that, and I realized just how similar Android is to L/unix(e.g. exactly the same).
[Gen8 Android Development] shklifo:
ehm, no.

In your case must be like the following:

"your command" >> /tmp/mnt/logfile 2>&1

That means redirect all messages from STDERR (2 - standard error) to STDOUT (1 - standard output) and all messaged collected on STDOUT to the redirected log file /tmp/mnt/logfile, or more comprensible redirect all mesage including error ones to the log file.

I'm working in Unix environments and use them often ;)

And a good practice in developing is to use "echo" to the same log file, so you know the exact place the script is running, like:

echo "I'm just before the formatting step of the ..." >> /tmp/mnt/logfile
[Gen8 Android Development] msticninja:
Strange. The google searching lead me to believe the "2>&1" was before the location, and replaced ">>". Once again, thanks for the help.
[Gen8 Android Development] TjaXanK:
any chance of you getting this uploaded? :) iterested in this since I'm not that good with linux
[Gen8 Android Development] msticninja:
I could probably finish it, but I'm waiting for a new version of Uruk first, as his install script already gets rid of the linux steps, it just doesn't give you the choice to install to the internal memory yet. Once he does that, I'll add my changes to make it install to the Archos partition. The latest Uruk is also a bit too big for the archos partition. I had to cut my data partition down to ~150 megs.
[Gen8 Android Development] TjaXanK:
ok, I'm currently running urk with the new install system and it's brillant but it would be perfect if we could run it without cutting down on our storage space

Beste Ilan de Vries,

Dank u wel voor uw email betreffende de firmware versie 1.72. Deze is een aantal weken geleden offline gehaald, de reden hiervoor is bij ons niet bekend. Het klopt dus inderdaad dat firmware versie 1.32 op uw toestel staat en dat er op dit moment geen nieuwe updates bechikbaar zijn. Gingerbread (Android 2.3) is aangekondigd, wij weten helaas niet of en wanneer deze update voor uw toestel beschikbaar komt.

Als u verdere vragen heeft, of u wilt laten weten dat uw probleem is opgelost, dan kunt u dat aan ons laten weten door naar de ContactUs te gaan en daar in te loggen met je e-mailadres en het volgende ticketnummer 11NLCW07NLA000208.

It was pulled weeks ago due to SMS notification bugs and issues with random reboots.

Stick to 1.32 and make sure you leave USB debugging on to prevent the INIT process going crazy. Whilst you're at 1.32, get Visionary on it and Permroot it, apply S-OFF and then never run an OTA update unless you've read it's safe to do so, 1.72 broke root.

Well you can manual flash your phone with RUU to 1.72 if you wan't, but then you loose the option to root it and to install custom firmwares. see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=879525 If you only want to use HTC official released firmware this will be no problem for you.

[Desire HD General] AndroidLEK:
From translating what you copied off the email into English it states that Gingerbread was announced but the customer support representative did not know when or if Gingerbread will be released for the DHD.

I reckon that that they are going to skip the 2.3 release for the DHD and go straight to the 2.4 version for the DHD.

[Desire HD General] robE9:
I doubt that, since they told that some devices will get 2.3 but they didn`t said what devices, and 2.4 will still be gingerbread but will be actually a bridge between 1core devices and 2 core devices (not confrmed by google)

Any information about this will be most welcome.

Thanks guys. ;)

This would be good to know. Especially if the update includes more than what their website says: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/features/update-info.aspx

Copy and paste is good (not sure why they missed this from the start being that iPhone got mocked for this so much at their beginning), but I really think they need more in this update.

Does the update have:

- Updated BING to have navigation

- The ability to attach videos to emails/texts (I understand what they are doing here, pushing people to use their "Skydrive")

If it is a "yes" to both of these, I will be jumping back into Windows Phone 7 from Android. The Windows Phone 7 is super slick I think. The number of apps is lacking, but hopefully people will get on board (yahoo fantasy football, espn, etc).

From neowin.net:

Neowin received confirmation from multiple sources, that pins the first Windows Phone 7 update for March 8.

According to the sources - including someone well placed inside a European carrier - the update has been delayed due to last minute changes by Microsoft and/or OEMs. The update must then be tested by carriers for two-three weeks prior to launch.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] SirSpanky:
Updates:

The first update to Windows Phone 7 brings copy & paste, CDMA device support, large performance improvements and better marketplace search. The update, entitled "NoDo" will be the first in a series of updates over the coming months, according to Microsoft. "Mango" is rumored to be next update for Windows Phone 7, which is pinned to bring multi-tasking for third party apps, HTML5 and the IE9 browser engine to the platform.

Supposedly delivered either through Zune or via OTA - but as our ROM has been 'fixed' by the various cooks, i'll probably hold off from either...
