[Atrix 4G General] djdino:
Okay, I just did a restore. It boots up fine. However, I stil cannot get SuperOneClick to recognize my device. I'm getting the infamous "waiting for device". I have Debuggin enabled and dismounted internal and external SDcard. Even when I don't have the device plugged in, SuperOneClick still freezes. I've tried 1.6.3 and 1.7.0 versions.

I'm running Win7 32Bit Enterprise and even tried on my XP Pro machine and still the same result. Yikes.

Thanks guys.
[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
Have you tried reinstalling the drivers?
[Atrix 4G General] djdino:
Yes I have sir. I even tried on a difference PC that never had the drivers installed.
[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
Try another usb cable. Might be a bad cable, or could even be a port.
[Atrix 4G General] djdino:
Thanks! I just tried that. I have 3 different cables and different usb ports. Could the problem be pointed back at SuperOneClick?? Even without the cable, it just 'waiting for device'. Not even an error message feedback.
[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
I don't think so. It possible, but at this point I would just warranty it and try a new one.
[Atrix 4G General] rjayflo:
Unroot if you used superoneclick. Atrix already has busybox and superoneclick installs it again. DG recommends adopt to root your Atrix
[Atrix 4G General] djdino:
How could I unroot if SOC can't even recognize the device? Thanks.

I know I should not be starting a new thread, but I think this is relevant. Many of us here are using some sort of popular method of increasing our data storage, be it either firerats or data2ext. I will submit that they are both very useful, and I personally use data2ext v2, and it works excellent for me with a nominal setup problem. I have also done firerats, which I believe is good for some folks, but just not worth the effort and tweaking for me. Data2ext is easier for me to set up and maintain between ROMS, never had market issues, and my space that I set is constant (I currently work with a half gig, gives me plenty of app room). I would be interested in any discussions which validate firerats as the better choice given a specific situation. The bottom line is I know we all have our preferences, but make an argument why one is better than the other. The newer guys want to ask, but are afraid to. State your case.
[Hero CDMA General] cortacanya:
FTW.....this thread makes sense because i cant make sense of which one to use. firstly because all attempts have ended in bootloops, secondly whenever i did think i got it going and checked stats nothing changed (obviously my fault) but after several dozen attempts you start to lose faith and don't want to ask questions because you get dragged across the coals for asking hows and why's. I use Amon Ra 1.6 / Asop mod 3/7, S-Off unrevoked method, "ondemand gov / min 267-max 710, JIT enabled, Comp Cache 18%, VM is at 32, CWM 3, Titanium B is my best friend, Radio is 2.42.02.10.29, Class 6 16 GB SD Card, partitioned thru Amon recovery "0" swap/ 1024 on ext4. fix permissions thru CWM after every new ROM update and reboot, every new update i wipe dalvik cache 3 times, only flash Gapps if its updated, i reboot (pull battery/ bootloader reset device/ reboot thru recovery at least 4-6 times before getting nervous, nandroid back up, nandroid back up, nandroid back up, I have SDK etup on my MAC, ADB only works using "./fastboot" commands which are limited on information on the internet, signed many consent forms stating that i hold no-one responsible for my learning curve and that any modifications to my phone might potentially set my phone on fire and unleash lucifer on orphaned blind babies ....obviously i have kept up and read alot of the forum extensively but yes the new guys would like a hand once in a while, the language is difficult and the native are at times are restless., yes i like learning something new and yes i like being taught, yes i want to breathe life into it, yes i want to see incredible benchmarks that make my phone proud, yes i want to see ridiculous battery life to brag, yes iwant to do all i can to see my old dog do new tricks, Yes I love my hero..... <whew> apologies for the rant but had to let it out... i will be reading this post quite a bit if questions can be answered with patience. ;-p

@cortacana

Well I don't think your recovery supports ext4 with 1.6 RA. If you want to use data2ext. Try ext2 and RA1.7 and down grade your ext to ext2. And if your going to use firerats you don't need your sd/card partitioned. If you want to use data2ext ext 4 your ext is correct but I think you need the newer cwm recovery that supports ext4 I think or RA1.7 Well hope this helps. Good luck.

[Hero CDMA General] cmason1015:
FWIW...

I tried data2ext set at 512M with aospCMod and CM7 RC2. The phone reported it had 473M. It worked fine for a day or two, then I started getting all kinds of FC, especially with Google Maps, and several apps just started failing to open.

So I switched over to Firerat's with CM7 RC2 and haven't looked back. I've got 340M for apps, but it seems much more stable.

It could very well be that my sd card simply won't support having my /app partition on it (although it did fine with the app2sd function that came with CM6).

Cheers
[Hero CDMA General] AjaxBU:
I had the same problem and have been meaning to do firerats. How simple is it to set up?
[Hero CDMA General] laie1472:
The instructions state the recommended partition is 1024 and you tried 512 could be your reason for fc's. And did you try ext2 or ext4?? I've been using ext2 with and I have my partitions at

1024 ext2 swap 0 and the rest fat. That gives me 0.94gb of internal mem and I've had not one problem. But a all phone are different.

[Hero CDMA General] AjaxBU:

Thanks, I started to do it then realized that I had CM recovery 2.5.0.7...which doesn't have the option to partition the sdcard.

Thanks for your help, I just went through with the backups, changed recoveries, and did a full wipe before I updated. Unfortunately I ran into some problems with gapps, and had to do it all over again. Anyway, as of now data2ext2 is working. Hopefully this will work better than the ext4.
[Hero CDMA General] laie1472:
Nice. Good Modding to get it working. A did you do the boost as well????

Yea its me again with the

Modified Hero
[Hero CDMA General] AjaxBU:
Never heard of the boost what do I need to do? And for what it's worth I didn't see an increase in quadrant scores. Class 4 card. Not that I care, since quadrant scores mean nothing but is that normal?
[Hero CDMA General] laie1472:
Not sure on the quadrant scores never did one since I've been rooted. So not going to be able to help you in that department. But to enable the boost from terminal type su hit enter then

Type

busybox mount -o remount,noatime,nodiratime, /mmt/asec/ext/ext2 /data

Should see the # sign

Then type reboot.

If you flip your phone horizontal you can see the command better. IMO.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks man. So far so good. For some reason I don't have my crt animations...but everything else is great. I haven't seen a real performance boost yet but I have plenty of room now--which was my goal.
[Hero CDMA General] laie1472:
CRT Animations are in cm settings in the rom. And the more you use it the better it gets. How much room were you able to get??

Yea its me again with the

[Hero CDMA General] AjaxBU:
Yeah for some reason they don't work anymore even with it checked. I set aside 1gb and have about 900mb free now. I'm cautiously optimistic, ext4 became an FC fest after two days.

Na you should be good. And did you do a fresh install?? Because I just checked mine and there working fine.

Yea its me again with the

[Hero CDMA General] AjaxBU:
Yeah, wiped and formatted--twice. It's no big deal, CRT animations look cool but it doesn't make my phone any better. Again, thanks for the help man. Super easy to do, much easier than the ext4 and it's working great.

Firerats MTD

Well...Firerats is simple to set up if you pay extreme attention to detail and go step by step exactly as it instructs to do. I have been having multiple problems with Firerats on my Hero200 though. My stats are in my signature and I hope you all will find my comments useful/helpful/or consider my opinion. I'm bout to restore my backup and not use Firerats and try out the Data2Ext. Any help with any of MY problems is greatly appreciated if anybody knows any more hints,tricks,or tips for me. Here is my comment from the Firerats thread:

[MOD][RECOVERY] Firerat's Custom MTD Partitions (resize Data,System and Cache)

So,I did this mod,I'm using MTD 100 18.I used ADB to reboot into recovery,everything went fine and worked great but now I cant obtain an IP address from my wifi here at home. Has anybody else had this problem? I'm thinking about possibly doing it like this:

1.Wipe data,cache,dalvik

2.Flash Recovery patch

3.Reboot normal into operating system

4.Go into ROM Manager

5. Flash new ROM and then Flash the boot.zip

6.Reboot the phone

Anybody have any comments or ideas for this or my problem? This happened to me before as well. It just won't obtain an IP address from an N++ Wireless Router. WTF!? IDK,hope to get some answers back from everybody!

OK,just found another problem along with this other stuff. I went into my ROM manager after the flash and everything was complete and it says : "You must root your phone for ROM manager to function.Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su" or "/system/xbin/su". Use Google Search on your computer to find instructions to root your phone." Anybody else ever get this? I'm starting to feel mad about this and may totally start over and use my nand to flash back to what I was running before. Any ideas and help is very greatly appreciated! Check my signature for my phone info!
[Hero CDMA General] laie1472:
Ok Look man first off you shouldn't post check your signature for your phone info when you just could have posted it among the six paragraphs you already wrote. 2nd of all- all you need to know about firerats is on the thread. Its more than enough info on that thread to help you correctly setup that mod. 3rd of all- you should have posted in the firerats thread if you needed help with firerats mod instead of posting on a data2ext thread asking about the firerat mod. Also hockeyfamily already posted a thread on how to correctly setup data2ext ext2 if you wanted to try it out. Also I fail to see how this is helping anyone when you post its easy to setup but your having trouble with it??? Imo just post in the firerat thread and I'm sure more than enough users will help you out. But you might want to post your rom, recovery,if your s-on or s-off, what version of firerats are you using and your exact steps. As far as your router try updating the firmeare. And change your wireless mode to a/g/b.

[Hero CDMA General] hockeyfamily737:
Bringing the thread back on topic here......These are my observations on both mods. My wife's Evo is running Firerats, my Hero is running data2ext 2. Firerats is much easier to set up and much easier to maintain, but provides much less data storage and no performance boost at all. Data2ext gives a lot more storage and a very nominal performance gain. If you run a lot of apps or are trying to squeeze everylast bit of performance you can out of your Hero Data2ext is the way to go. If you like to flash a rom or 2 every day and don't need a 1gb of storage Firerats is less cumbersome to use while constantly switching roms.....To break it down, my wife's evo after Firerat mod has approximately 600mb of available data storage. My trusty old Hero with data2ext has .94gb of storage.
[Hero CDMA General] PS4AndroidHacker:
This is very nice to know and great info;I'm gonna give the data2ext2 a try 2morrow as I'm having some issues with Firerat's. Thanks for your insight and sorry 4 going off topic before.
[Nook Color General] cameraz:
Sorry if this has been asked before. I searched, but couldn't find anything.

I am running Android 2.1 on my Nook Color. The Adobe Flash app apparently doesn't work with anything below 2.2.

Is there anything else I can use to watch Flash videos on my NC?

The Market has an "SWF Player," but it says "You need to install Adobe Flash Player Plugin before using this player."

I cannot find the plugin in the Market. Anybody got any ideas? Thanks.
[Nook Color General] therealguppy:
The only thing you can use to Watch Flash on your 2.1 rom, is the "Skyfire" web-browser which kinda has flash support, it will convert flash on the fly and allow you to watch content from the systems default video app.

Its not perfect and its pretty clunky, but its all 2.1 has unless adobe puts out a flash for 2.1 which i'm sure they wont. since they could have already and decided not too.
[Nook Color General] cameraz:
OK, thanks, man.

It's not really insecurity. The reason I ask this if I was the only person that felt this way. I upgraded from and Evo and I work for Radio Shack. Mostly everyone has an Evo and half the people don't even know how to use it. Honestly the reason I say this. The nexus line is not one of your everyday phones that everyone has....that's why.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SupaDupaFly24:

That's the point of Google having a phone. So that the true android users can have something crappy two year upgrade I want a rebate people can't have.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
the more people having the same phone the better

as it encourages more development and support

it also translates into more longevity before you need to switch to another phone
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyed:
First one is true, but more development is also encouraged by the fact that it is stock Android. I can imagine it's easier to develope on.

I don't know why the second one would be true. If many people buy a certain phone (for example the Galaxy S), the producer wants to make a second one, the Galaxy S II in this case. You, jealous as you are, buy that phone. Also, a unique phone is still cool after 2 years, because you can still say: look what I have! No one will recognise it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAndroider:

I've seen a grand total of 1 Nexus One and 1 Nexus S in the wild since the phones have been launched. The Nexus S being mine.

I didn't get the Nexus S to be a special unique snowflake, I got it because of the stock android experience and updates directly from Google. Though, other phones seem weird to me wince I'm so used to the curved glass display on this phone.

I'll honestly never understand people who feel the need to be special.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddgarcia05:
I don't have a nexus s, and I don't mean to cause any problems. I do feels like google has soldout the nexus line to the highest bidder. I was jealous of nexus users because the name nexus to me meant a developers phone and seeing one in the wild meant the owner knew a thing or two about roms and xda. It still means that, but thoses days are numbered now that sprint will be releasing the phone. I wonder if they're going to be insuring the phone. Again I mean no disrespect or anyone on the forums.
