i have htc aria 2.1... i partition my sd card using rom manager however i got an error when i opened the link2sd and selected ext2 as shown in aditya.png attachment... same goes for ext3... while for FAT32/16 it shows other error as shown in aditya1.png... pls help me i want to run this app... one more thing when i see storage info in link2sd u could see the pic shown in aditya3.png
its trying to write to /system which is undo-able due to s-on(security on) it disables write(when not in clockwork) to /system
Hello, my first post. I'm having the exact same problems as the OP. Did you ever get it working? What is the solution? From what I can gather from the previous post, I need to somehow turn "security off"? I will search a bit.
BTW, I'm on a rooted Aria, stock ATT ROM 2.1. Thanks to anyone with some insight!

Hello Guys,
I'm pretty new to all the Custom Rom things around here...
Yesterday I've installed the new MoDaCo 3.0 version for my hero, i had 2.3 or what so ever. I installed the rom, and then formatted my sd-card up to EXT4 via the adb tool. I'm sorry i can't remember if i first formatted or i first put on the new rom.
The thing is: in the List it says that Apps2SD is fully included in the update. I was not able to find the changes.... i tried it my self afterwards by installing the 2 files with a terminal, but the app2sd says its not working i should read the tutorial.(which i have) although it says 100mb space free now... and before the update all my progs filled up to 30mb.
So Q1: how do i install this version right?
and Q2: i still don't get any animations for my htc Clock (with the flipping pages) and i couldn't find any preferences. how do i get it to work? (and is there a prog where i can choose all my preferences, i get the feel i can't change all the things in the HTC-Preferences Dialog.
I Hope someone understands my problems ;-)
can you please state the exact error message from apps2sd?
it should work automatically on mcr. try to partition your sdcard again (btw i'd suggest ext2), then wipe and reflash mcr. that's it, the rest is taken care of. if you still think you have problems please search for it, there are numerous threads where i explained in details how you can check whether it is working or not.
as for q2: can also be covered by a search. in short: no animations any more.
thanks for the input, search actually did help me out for the clock problem ;-) (no possible on modaco hehe)
and I'll try the formatting and re-rom again, hopefully it works.
thx!
great place here
Hey guys,
I was updating voodoo to my phone from stock Eclair and I got stuck on VIBRANT logo page for over 2 hours.
So I figured mine's dead and upgraded to JK2.
Now everything works fine except I can't install any app from the market. It simply says I have not enough storage to install. And sure enough, in settings it says 0.00b under Application Storage while phone storage has 12gb left.
After JK2, I cleared cache and I think I did everything right.
Can you help?
anyone have any clue?
and whenever I try to downgrade to 2.1, I will get the S logo then it'll just have blank screen.
What am I doing wrong?
up trying to fix this for like 4 hours and can't get it to work!
I had the issue with 0 app space after flashing obsidian 4.2 with ulf.the issue was fixed after going back into cw and setting up a lag fix and letting it do it's thing to reformat the file system.

I am starting a new thread here since I did not got any mention of the problem that I am facing right now. Please help.
My device was on stock 2.2.2 ROM until I upgraded it to the 407 ROM sometime back. It was working smoothly till yesterday before I tried to root it. After installing the streakmod, I booted the device in recovery mode to apply the update of superuser.zip. However, though I am able to see superuser icon in my menu still Busy box Installer tells me that the root user rights cann't be acquired.
This was just the tip of the problem.
Now when I restarted my device, the Dell logo is coming up. However after sometime, a message is getting flashed saying that
"File system check returned status 2048. ( I dont remember exactly what file was mentioned but it was pointing to system directory. ) Please send this unit to the software development for debugging. Formatting your device".
After that I again flashed the 407 recovery and the respective package in the device. However, the problem still persists and the same message appears after 2-3 reboots. Even the stock browser is throwing up an exception and Wifi option says Error beneath it.
Before I flashed the stock 2.2.2 ROM, I had the following config for the phone -
Android version - 2.2.2
Baseband version - GAUSB1A134700-US
Kernel version - 2.6.32.9-perf
OEM Version -GAUSB1A134700
Build number - 15274
Please help. I am very much in love with this device and dont want to switch to some other phone.
Sounds like it coukd be your internal sd ard has gone bad, i was also getting the same message and my device formatting so i swapped it for a 2gb sdhc its been fine ever since

Hi andy,
Thanks for the information. But I believe that the internal SD card is not user replacable. Is it?? How much effort it required on your end ?
Yes mate it is replaceable, theres two ways to get T it, 1 is to remove the lcd from the phone second is to cut away the plastic inside the phone battery bay to get at it, i chose to open mine as i didnt wanna start cuttin plastic, it is really easy to do you can replace it with upto a 4gb, anything higher and you have to edit files etc, i put in a 2gb sdhc been fine ever since, plus the phone will automatically format for you,

Cutting the plastic is an easy job and only takes a few minutes. The upside to this method is that it the inner SD card is accessible and it only has to done once. If you have any warranty left you void that. You could even remove it and make a backuo image periodically.
I replaced mine with an 8GB, class 10 card and the phone formatted it for me. There is more info here and here.
The system files are needed if you want to use the space for other than what the system uses it for. More info on using the internal SD for other purposes here and here. In my case I ended up with over 6 GB of system space to install apps. I can keep all of my apps on the inner SD Card.
Aah thanks for that marvin, i didnt realise that, now i know that im gonna upgrade mine

I had lots of problems with mine to i think it`s the 347 base band i read every post and downloaded DSC and it works great read all there post there is a guide to follow you will have 407 running in no time REMEMBER TO READ
One thought here for the OP: why not upgrade to 360 first before trying to upgrade to 407? That might solve your issues. I can't verify whether it would work or not, since I never used the official ROM to upgrade. I upgraded the baseband the hard way and use a custom ROM.
I don't remember how off hand, but isn't there a simple procedure to test your SD card first to see if that is in fact the problem?

It's been posted many times. Info in this link.
My internal was gone bad too and crashed 4 times in 2 months. after functioning very well for the first 2 months. It appeared a read write block error on the internal SD repeating the error 4 times proved the defect.
I replaced mine without real trouble with a 8 Gb SD class 10.
just removed the old one and replaced with the new one.
mind you i tried several cards and not all were installed properly.
Now i have a huge 6 Gb for my apps and no need for App2SD or Link2SD anymore. can swap any external SD without problems for any apps that way. everything is now installed internal including maps of 6 countries for europe.
On youtube you'll find a lot of movies how to dis assemble and reassemble the Dell Streak 5.
Grts
Ted.
Please correct me if I am wrong. All the applications get installed to the internal memory by default. I don't face issues when I keep them that way. When I acutally try to move the apps to SD, sometimes the move does not happens on first attempt. Sometimes it does. I think that's where the problem lies. Is it possible that due to a corrupt external card, the streak is getting checksum error and formatted on restart?
That.s a good guess if you can repeat it afew times it has some bad blocks when software is bad removing and installing wil not solve that. It only took me as many as 4 times to be certen about it.
No genius needed for that.
I had 230+ aps installed and som other data I always wanted to have so internal is my choice. General I used 2.5 Gb .

The dev can set it up so that the app is installed to the SD card. Few apps do this, but not every app defaults to internal storage.

Alright !!
In the mean time my internal SD contains 333 aps now including 7 country map data of europe stored. My external is free for any use. Very cool when mounted by PC and no broken apps.
This streak is so cool now and despite the fact that it is an older device it still can compete very well.
The only disadvantidge is the longer boot and long refreshing the app list in the app drawer after first boot and backup apps.
Just my 2ct

UPDATE: i have been using he card now for some time but experience some systeem freezes, nog fatal but for a few sec andere up. I am ging to install he Same brand 4Gb card class 10 and that should be more than sufficient for my needs. Internal up to 16 GB is not an option i guess. IT would be even worse i guess.
Hi.
I'm a noob, & this is my 1st question in any forum whatsoever, so please be gentle.
this is a serious problem, for I am just minutes away from bricking my device.
HTC started rolling out the official ICS update OTA for the evo3D, and my device said there werew no updates available when I checked manually. so I did what everyone would do, try to install it manually. so after a bit of google, I found out that you can do so, by downloading the OTA files to sd card, and followed these instructions ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1732984 ) . after that, I had 3 files in the root directory;
(1)
S_OFF_4EXT_RECOVERY_OTA_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Eur ope_3.28.401.1-1.20.401.8_release_2627623qpt0ma8rnwgn0qq.zip (which is the OTA files, 274MB)
(2)
PG86IMG.zip (containing radio,adsp,boot,sbl3,sbl2,sbl1,rpm,tz, and rc data - all are .img, and a little text file.) size was 18MB
(3)
root-OTA-ICS.zip size was like 6MB
so I powered on the device while holding the volume down, and went into HBoot (which mine is version 1.49.xxx.bla blah) and the options were "fast recovery, reset, all that, but: it shows those options for like 2 seconds, then goes automatically to read PG86IMG.zip, listing the files above. it asked me if I wanted to start an update, and being the noob that I am, I obviously said yes. it updated all those files above, and asked me to restart. now I can't get past the HTC splash screen boot logo. the screen just goes black after that.
If I boot into recovery without an sd card in, it goes to it, with the red /!\ icon, and when I press volume up and the power key, (after re-inserting the SD card) it says
"E:Can't open /cache/recovery/comand"
"E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)" three times.
then there are blue options above,
"Reboot system noe, Apply update from SD card,wipe data/factory reset, cache,"
so I selected "Apply update from SD card"
I get
"E:failed to verify whole-file signature.
E:signature verifiction failed
Installation aborted"
Please help!
PS, I don't want to loose all my contacts, data, msgs.
and is there a way of mounting the SD card to the PC so that I can copy files to and from the MicroSD card? - or any application/command prompt which can do so?
Sorry for the long post. I just wanted to explain everything so you know where exactly I'm at.
Thank you so much!
What carrier are you on?

Gsm... And cdma!
well, my device is unlocked.
I think I have the Europe variant, (because it has a GSM simcard slot)
but I bought it from ebay, and it had a number tag on it, so I think
it was one of those early prototypes, because in the options (when it was still
working) i had an option to select CDMA only, or GSM & CDMA. (radio type)
had it since november last year... worked fine all the way...
Thanks!
All gsm phones actually give that option so simply enough, you have the gsm version. I would be fairly certain that with the update via pg86img all your data etc would have been lost anyway. Have you *tried* using a stock pg86img??
You could also try the htcdev unlock via fastboot via htcdev.com and than flash a recovery with fastboot and install a gb rom.

oh, and reading/writing to sd card?
oh noooooo! :crying:
are you sure all my data will be lost?
all my new contacts, etc? noooo!
anyways, where can I get that stock file?
or should I just follow the second link (in my post)?
and is there a way to mount the SD card to my PC
(so that I can download that file there) - or maybe
a command line/*.exe application which can sync
in to the SD card to read and write while the phone
is on (either in Hboot or recovery)
thanks so much for your help so far! :good:
OK, so a quick update,
I finally got hold of acces to my SD card on my PC using a card reader,
and I replaced the PG86IMG.zip with the one from the second link,
repeated the update (which got me into all this mess in the 1st place)
and now my phone boots normally. :victory:
I lost all my messages, but got my contacts from my google account,
and some I have saved earlier in my SD card. some of the apps also retained!
now, when I manually check for the OTA update, I get the notification,
download it, verifies it, and reboots itself to install.
when the progress bar is a third of the way, a red questionmark ? icon appears,
update stops, and reboots back to gingerbread. done it 3 times now!
any pointers as to what is causing this?
my HBoot version is 1.49.2012, and it says "S-OFF"
thanks again people!!!

from what i've heard is you need S-ON to do the official ICS update S-OFF is for flashing custom roms only
Hi guys,
I have a very delicated problem with my HTC ONE. Last night I began to unlock my bootloader to install a root. That worked quite well.
So I did everything after the manuals and it worked fine. BUT then I tried to move the trickdroidrom onto the device and it wasnt possible.
Since then I am not able to access my mobiledevice neither from windows nor from mac. Anyhow i managed to install a filemanager and my htc one told me then that "no sd card is mounted"
I really have no clue how to manage with this. I am a beginner yes, but i already used google and the forum search but i only find things that tells to to at least put something on my device to go on...
soo pleeeeease! i need your knowledge to get my phone work again :/
thank you in advance
PS: What I already tried is: mounting all the folders via recovery. but sdcard did not mount and of course external sdcard (probably because there is none
PPS: I tried to download trickdroid via htc one and it says Phone Storage is requiered to download trickdroid:7.5.0.zip

For all idiots who made the same mistake!
I have flashed some TrickDroid Kernel which made the whole system not workable...
if u done the same idiotic thing than download some htc stock kernel and flash it again afterwards it should work again.
