[Q] Market app download problem - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hi all,
I have a question,
My brothers girlfriend recently got the Galaxy Ace(S5830) wich came equipped with gingerbread 2.3.3 and the new market.
Whenever she wants to download a big file like the game "Alabama Smith Lite" wich is 47,94 mb she gets the error "Not enough space on device".
When my galaxy S(I9000) had this problem i used the CWM update zip to change the cache size.
Is there something like this for the galaxy ace?
I tried the search function but only came upon a topic that is for the device running CM7 and had download troubles.
Is there a way i can solve the problem on the galaxy ace?
The phone is running with these firmware specs (stock rom):
Android version: 2.3.3
Baseband: S5830XWKP7
Kernelversion 2.6.35.7-perf-CL484646, [email protected]#1
Buildnumber: GINGERBREAD.XWKPU.
I hope someone knows a solution for the problem.
Greetz,
Walter

Move your market cache to sd card.

Hmm must i do this through adb or is there another way?

Use adb or terminal emulator-
adb shell
# cd /cache/
# rm -R download
# mkdir /sdcard/marketcache
# ln -s /sdcard/ marketcache download
# chown -h system.cache download

Ah nice. Thnx for the explanation. When i used the method i will post a replay or edit this message if its still the last one.
Thnx again.

i tried using the commands but
at first i forgot to root the phone to get the cd command to work.
Only now when i try to do
# ln -s /sdcard/ marketcache download
i get a link failed Read only filesystem.
i tried the following
call adb shell sysrw in my cmd prompt on windows, wich gave me a permission denied,
next thing i tried a remount wich did nothing, as superuser it gave me a not found error, and in normal it gave me a permission denied.
I also tried using a terminal app on the mobile, but that also gave me a link faild read only filsystem error.
The remount command i saw when i googled the error but did not help.
What can i do?

"whoami" unknown command (Please help tried everything)

Hi everyone,
I'm really baffled by this error im getting now. Just re-did the root on my X10a and everything is working great. SU is advising me when things request root access and it sets to UID 0. FINE. But when i go into terminal and hit whoami i get unknown command. Last time i had this i did ttxdragon (i think is his name) method and it fixed it but now nothing gets it to work. When i hit su i get the # and am able to mount the os in adb and in terminal, also to delete system apps using #6 in the root guide but the whoami command comes up as unknown command. This is driving me nuts because everything seems ot be configured properly and i have proper root access from what i can see. Please someone help if you know what i might be doing wrong.
Also i just re-rooted using the new 5 Step method for X10a.
Your help is much appreciated.
Edit: Also wanted to mention i got the busybox app from the market also and it installed fine as uid0.
Regards.

Easy, instead of running simply:
# whoami
Run:
# busybox whoami
Done!
By the way, you can simply type
# id
too
Haha! Thank you your a saint! I'm still learning everyday
Thanks again.

Samsung Galaxy 3 GT-i5800/i5801: Enable Live Wallpapers

Due to "high demand" here's a dedicated thread to explain howenable live wallpapers on Samsung i5800/i5801. You can find original tutorial by ali_alex here:
1) You need to root your i5800/i5801, you can find a tutorial here. An alternate method to root was described here
Video for the same see this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cus0yaC5ayY
Hope OP doesn't mind just trying to help - thanks hari
2) Download and unrar "sdcard.rar" (attached to this thread) in your SD Card
3) Download Terminal Emulator from the market (http://www.androlib.com/android.application.jackpal-androidterm-zxnC.aspx)
4) Start terminal emulator from your i5800/i5801 and write (in orders):
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw,codepage=utf8,vfat,xattr,check=no /dev/stl5 /system
cat /sdcard/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk > /system/app/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
cat /sdcard/libRS.so > /system/lib/libRS.so
cat /sdcard/librs_jni.so > /system/lib/librs_jni.so
reboot
When you write "su" and press enter, terminal ask for root permission, give it
5) Once rebooted you can use live wallpapers
Thanks, it works fine. Very nice tutorial!

Live wallpapers not working on a rooted phone
I've sucessfully rooted the phone using adb and the root.rar from the thread but I cant seem to enable live wallpapers.
Tried the manual transfer of files as well as adding the files in the update.zip file before rooting.
Here is a transcript of an adb session
Code:
C:\root>adb shell
$ su
su
# ls /system/app/LiveW*
ls /system/app/LiveW*
/system/app/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
# ls /system/lib/librs*
ls /system/lib/librs*
/system/lib/librs_jni.so
# ls /system/lib/libR*
ls /system/lib/libR*
/system/lib/libRS.so
#
So, I know i have the files in the right locations. Now, what am I missing. The Live wallpapers option doesn't appear at all in the "Select Wallpaper from" picker along with "Gallery" and "Wallpaper gallery".
Would appreciate some help.
Cheers.

Root is required
It does work, but the best of them, like the Galactic Core, slows down the phone alot... it just cant handle most of the live wallpapers.
Guess theres a reason not to have them in the first place
hey buddy,
wen ever i prompt of live wallpapers, a msg pop ups "the application livewallpapers has stopped unexpectedly. please try again"
Plz help. hav already worked on this4 hours. dnt want my efforts to go waste.
got it working
Got live wallpapers working for my i5801. It was a problem with the owner/group settings.
Incase anyone else has the same problem do this.
su
mount -o remount,rw,codepage=utf8,vfat,xattr,check=no /dev/stl5 /system
chown root.root /system/app/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk

Wallpapers works great! Thank you!
Friends from India
hi friends,
Even i couldn't get the Live Wallpapers in the First Go.With Same Error "Cannot Create ... : Read only file System"
but i guess the mistake is simple jus try typing as it is given even Caps,Spaces etc.
it worked for me.
And Thanks To the Admin for posting this it took me a little more than 5 hrs to figure out the correct file even after giving the links (there's a spl file for I5801 india) please try rooting through that.
Love this forum
I'm able 2 run first line but when i tried 2 execute 2nd line it gave me following error
cannot create /system it is a directory
wat is that special file i'm also from india plz rep me back 2 my email if possible send d file also my id is [email protected]
Rooting and installing the live wallpaper worked perfectly for me, although I had a little hard time typing the codes.
The only problem I face now is that my phone isn't coming as a storage device when I plug it in the USB. I tried the USB settings, Debugging etc in the phone. The PC detects it as "Samsung USB Composite Device". Any solutions to my problem?
Its probably a typo that causes the error. I suggest going to ur internet browser on your phone, to this website, and simply copy each kernal 1 line at a time.
also, I have enabled live wallpapers, and while its an amazing feature, i seem to have a problem, and that problem is that the phone switches off once in a day due to locking up and then restarts.
i have been at it for 5 god damn hours and nothing has happened....it jus keeps saying no such dir found....
its there u damn phone!!! look!!
what do i do to fix this....have read all the threads relating to live wallpapers....no luck!

Free up some space and try again" ..but all my application is wiped out so what SPACE ?? i have 3GB free space ..
PLS HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM ..IM STILL ONLINE .
SORRY FOR THE BAD ENGLISH
I have the same problem, however I think mine came rooted from factory.
Did you find a solution?
My tablet-pc has Model number: T05A and
Build number: crane_evb-eng 4.0.3. IML74K 20120322 test-keys
Is it a Chinese-Brand tablet? Sounds like a hardware problem going on, did you try to unroot it?
Maybe we find answer via Google: "android busybox factory-reset-after-every-restart-shutdown".
... I am not allowed to paste links here
Is it under warranty?

Solved
Problem solved (at least for me) with the following procedure:
1. Find a valid Android Device ID --- needed for apk downloader
2. Download BusyBox .apk from GooglePlay via codekiem apk downloader
3. Install Android SDK and ADB on PC
4. Install Google device driver for ADB
5. On PC in DOS-cmd-window: adb install stericson.busybox-116.apk (if failure: try with -s option)
6. On tablet: Install Busybox in /system/bin ( xbin = big mistake!!!)
7. Restarted the tablet-pc and found all apps and settings restored
I'm not getting it right
My friend has one of these :
Model number: T05A
He installed the BusyBox on xbin and his device is stuck on factory resetting every reboot.
I looked at CocoaBean solution but when I do it I get this :
4455 KB/s (5536756 bytes in 1.213s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/bb783.apk
pkg----5------:
pkg----6------:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]
Now I know the device has 1 GB of space.
I also have the exact same Tablet and was wandering, is there a way to backup my total rom and put it on his tables ?
My tablet is new with nothing on so its a nice device to image.
I'm also not to worried about his apps and stuff, he doesn't care just wants it to work again.
Any advice ?

T05A firmware
Guys,
if any of you needs to reflash your tablet and cannot find the firmware of the manufacturer for Elijah U9 (T05A), I've made a separate thread for it here.
By the way, CocoaBean, thanks for the files.

no need to apologize, mate....i also tried reinstalling but it does not fix the problem...
Meh, I don't remember what fixed it.. Maybe even clean rom install.. I just noticed one day that it works again
Don't know..
Try wiping cache and dalvik cache in recovery.. just a wild guess..
Do you remember what you did on phone lately?
Hi,
This is usually caused by a bad busybox binary. Root Explorer uses the df command from busybox to find used and free space. Other people who have reported the same problem have found that the df command in their busybox fails. You can confirm this yourself by entering a command such as "busybox df /system" (without the quotes) in a terminal emulator. If this is the problem then updating to a fully working busybox should get it working again.

error:su not found, when run a script file in android

my tablet is rooted with supersu.
I have copied the script as below in a text file, kept in root directory with necessary permissions.
su
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
stop adbd
start adb
I am running it in a terminal emulator with root access at tablet.
when running from $ i.e. without root( error message appeared as su not found).
when running from # (after executing su in emulator manually & deleting su from the file), it is running fine.
I think, script file need to be root permitted ?
Dont know how ?
can anyone help ? please.
