thats because that isnt done through CWM recovery at all. Depending on what script youre using with it (I used Dt's to get this, but its not the most elegant, and idk if PyroMod has this built in to work or not), but you go into terminal emulator, grant it su permissions, then type in a2sd check. It should check to see that the a2sd script is installed correctly and has proper access to the SD card. then it will tell you to type a2sd help for more info. Upon doing so, it will give you a list of commands in the script, as well as their descriptions. scroll through the list until you can find the corresponding command to convert your partition to the desired format (no pun intended) and enter it into the terminal. The partition should be formatted by the script, and possibly reboot (not entirely sure, as its been a little while since I used that one), but once its complete, you should have the correct format for your partition.

Sorry that was so long winded, but I wanted to be as detailed as I could. If you have any further questions on it, or if I was unclear on anything, just shoot me a PM or add me on Google Talk/Twitter (same user as here), and I can try to walk you through it.

Thanks for reply!

Currently I use Miui ROM 1.3.18 Android 2.3.3!

I followed this,to partion sdcard with Darktremors beta03

http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=158809660835039

First I partitioned sdcard,(it only shows "Ext" at recovery,no ext3 or ext4)

then flashed darktremor beta03.

If I check partition,then it shows "ext3".

To check partition,I did this:

adb shell reboot recovery

adb shell

parted /dev/block/mmcblk1

print

Don`t know how I can partition to ext4,maybe not possible with this

ROM!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmwils3:
That is entirely possible, idk if miui will do ext4. However, have you tried using the beta 4 of dts script?? That's what I used that could convert the partition format to ext 3 or 4.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ganii:
Will try beta 4,maybe works with this!

not sure if MikevHL is still updating this, but i loved the options here and wished it could charge while off.....

i have included damien667's modifications to MikevHL's recovery image here:

View attachment CWMMod-3.0.1.4-offmode-charging.zip

just flash from your current recovery then reboot to recovery and enjoy.

This is MikevHL's 3.0.1.4 from this thread, unpacked, added binaries from OTA recovery to allow charging while phone is in OFF state.

Enjoy.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spike84:
Hi everyone. I have a samsung galaxy s vibrant on android 2.2. I am a total noob with any modifications but am going overseas next month and wanted to unlock my phone. After looking into rooting etc. I downloaded odin and darky's ROM resurrection edition. I followed the prompts to go into recovery and wipe etc. and remove battery and turn back on. After using odin and restarting my phone now just flashes the start screen showing galaxy s GT-I9000. I can't enter recovery mode just download mode. I'm unsure what to do and even tried mounting another recovery file on odin which lead me to the same point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
Try re-flashing it and see if that works, sometimes that's all it takes. It's possible you just had a bad flash.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spike84:
I've tried about 5 times now and it seems to keep failing to boot after flash and sticking on the initial boot screen and flashing on and off. Is there a way to download and flash an original ROM and mount on odin to start over?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
Try getting into download mode. Hold and continue to hold up & down volume controls while holding in the power button. When the Vibrant logo comes up release only the power button. If you do get into recovery that way scroll down to install zip from sd card and install whatever rom you've got on there that you want to use. Let me know if that works or not.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spike84:
I can still only get into download mode. I've tried flashing again with both ROMs I have and they both are doing the same thing. Holy frustrating lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
Look for a hard surface... concrete for example.. now take your phone and throw it as hard as you can... Just kidding don't do that, that's a permanent reboot. I know the frustration, I've been there many times. You may want to go back and read through the noob guide, I'm not sure what else to suggest. Hopefully someone else will read this and have a better suggestion. Good luck.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spike84:
haha yeah the thought crossed my mind. I appreciate your help. I'm still reading through the forum. Most instructions seem to require me to reach recovery mode or usb debugging. My phone is no longer being recognized on the computer but odin is obviously still recognizing so I'm going to try a fresh 2.2 on odin and see if that works.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
Good luck, I'm rooting for ya. If that does not work and your close to a T-mobile store I'd just run it in and have them check it out, they may have to replace it.

Hi All,

I was wondering if I could put out a request for some APKs. I would like to have live wallpapers on Bonsai and have tried putting livewallpaper.apk and the picker into my Epic but I don't have Root Explorer and I can't seem to change the permissions on those files. Right now all of the APKs I found have Read Yes Write Yes and the other one No. All of the APKs in my app directory have Read Yes Write No and other one No. Could someone post those APKs with permissions set like that? I don't know if that is my exact problem or if it is worth it to buy RE for only that purpose.

TIA,

DD

I believe its been mentioned before that ES File Explorer brings most of the Root Explorer functionality for free. I could be wrong though since ive never tried it myself. Worth a shot though if its just a permissions issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeerChameleon:
U can also use sdx stock app removal app, just put the apk in the adx folder on the SD card and go Into the app then to manage backups and got restore :)

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doggiedog:
Thanks. I have tried everything. I could not change the permissions using sdx or ES File manager. All I could do with those programs was access the system directories. Unless I am doing something wrong, I will either need to get Root Explorer and change the permissions or get altered livewallpaper apks.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esteway.619:
I think the frankenstine rom thread has a flashable zip for live wallpapers
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeerChameleon:
U don't need to change permissions in the sdx app removal app...

Set From My 3.0.1 Bonsai Epic 4g
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doggiedog:
OK. I think I may be confusing some people.

I would like to have Live Wallpapers in Bonsai since it's been removed. I did some research and found that you need to install the livewallpaper apks into the system/app directory. I did that using ES File Manager and rebooted. It didn't work. I did some more research and a few people had the same issue. The solution was to make sure the permissions in the livewallpaper apks was exactly the same as the permissions as the other apks in the apps directory. The apks in the directory all have Read Yes, Write No and Hidden No. All of the livewallpaper apks I found had permissions set up as Read Yes, Write Yes and Hidden No. I figure if I change the Write from Yes to No, it might work. I'm not 100% positive which is why I don't know if it's worth it to buy Root Explorer just to experiment. I'm hoping someone can provide me with the livewallpaper and livewallpaperspicker apks with altered permissions that have those settings.

Estewa_619, I will try that ROM. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doggiedog:
Tried the Frankenstein ROM livewallpaper apks and it still didn't work. The permissions are still set up as Read Yes, Write Yes and Hidden No. :(
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mis3:
This is very easy to solve. Go to midnight rom and download it to computer. Open up the midnight extras folder and you will find lots of zip files in there that are all flashable in CWM. Just extract the folder, then copy the live wallpaper zips you want onto your sd card, then flash in CWM.

Alternatively, what I normally do is download the rom you want to flash (Bonsai). Open it up on your pc. Navigate to system/apps. Paste the livewallper apks into that directory. Then flash normally. This will include any files you want in the system/app folder.

Hi guys,

I have a non-rooted Galaxy S running Froyo 2.2, Baseband version is I9000BOJP3, Build No is FROYO.BOJPB (note this is the official Froyo T-Mobile ROM)

I am able to use the '3 button recovery mode' however it is the 3e recovery mode rather better 2e version.

Well no idea about your ROM. So its on you :) . WARNING if something goes wrong I take no responsibility. READ IF ITS FOR YOU BEFORE YOU FLASH SOMETHING But you can flash a custom kernel.

I used Speedmod Kernel READ THE WARNINGS IN THE THREAD. To go back I backed up mine. If its only kernel you change should be easy to go back. But whole rom after you flash something custom not sure :) . Anyway this is how I did it.

1. Root is a must :)

2. Download SGS kernel flasher from Neldar

3. Backup your current kernel with the SGS kernel flasher (upload to email)

4. Optional Just in case backup your efs folder (SGS toolbox is nice for that) upload the back to your email

5. Flash the CWM version (with the SGS kernel flasher) you get on speedmod kernels thread.

6. Optional, now you can boot to the 2e recovery (Again SGS toolbox comes in handy with a shortcut and apply the goodies from speedmod or backup everything or flash what you wanted

the "upload to email" I added cuz there can always, even without this flashing go something wrong with your SD (internal or external) and is always good to have a backup. you can change email to PC etc :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
I completely agree with Pagot's instructions. SGS Kernel Flasher and SGS Toolbox give you all you need to swap kernels with confidence, then add CWM for Mods and you are now good to go.

I would suggest that if you don;t with to email the efs folder to yourself, upload it to Dropbox. I keep all vital backups for all of my devices there, so I can get to them at anytime, from any device.

Can someone help me with this? I've done some searching and can't find anything.

So far I've learned some basic linux, and about how you can add alias' to bashrc in order to do this. I can't actually edit bashrc on my phone though as it's a read-only system file. I understand that it shouldn't be messed with and that's why it's read only, but I can't even chown or chmod it, or edit it as root.

I know android is different, so hopefully someone can help me with this?

My goal is to be able to telnet/ssh into devices without actually having to type out the entire command having to remember all the ip addresses; instead I just want to be able to type in the name of the switch.

An example of an alias I want to add would be:

alias ciscoswitch='telnet 172.16.1.1'
