hey,
thanks to sirkey's xkernel and flykernel we have OTG working fine on RAY!!
Here's my question
1)Is it possible to unmount sd card and mount flash drive as sd-card ??
2)if (1) is possible , is it possible to boot without sd and mount flash drive as sd ???
Because i need to play games on my ray , but i dont have enough space on sd, so if above is possible then i can run games with flash drive inserted !!!
For admin:
{after receiving answers, i will convert this thread to ( [TIP] ) if it really works }
Even it is possible, using OTG too much will result over-heating on USB chip.
But still worth of it right !!!!
I may not more than half an hour.....
Or a movie !!

I'm pretty sure I watched some movies off my 64gb usb stick to test this function.
However, the point has already been made - doing this regularly probably isn't very good for the device.
Just buy a 32gb SD card, it really is quite a lot of memory!
I have also read that some 64gb sd cards work on the Ray.

Hi,
I got my Optimus one not long ago and I bought kingston 8G for it though it would work fine. The phone read the card well and show the memory correct and I can use it pretty good on my phone. The thing later I found out is the phone itself restart after the idle time exceed 1hr which is crazy. The phone works really good until I upgrade my original sd card (samsung 2G which came in with) to Kingston microsd 8G. I don't know where exactly is wrong, and I couldn't return the sd card either since it work fine on both phone and on computer with card reader. If someone got same problem with me, please let me know or help me out!! Thanks in advance.
I think it is a firmware problem,Mine and others do the same with the standart 2G card...
Firmware keeps updating itself when I go on WIFI connection. I don't know about these stuffs either. But now, the problems are ended..the phone doesn't read any card anymore whether 2G or 8G, it keeps saying that "sd card removed. Insert a new one". I've tried restart again & again but the message doesn't go away and my phone decide not to recognize the card.Both of the cards work fine on computer. I think I need to visit the shop where I bought to check on it. Btw, is that problem considered in the warranty case? I don't know.. It wasn't even a month with me. So sad!

Are you using any app2sd ? If yes, it could be a problem also if ur using an app storing data on your SD card. It makes you're cell restart.
I have the "mount / unmount" problem on my LG, I saw on a french forum that it was better to try with another file system, sometimes it was solving, sometimes not. I don't think it's really a card problem, I gave my LG GW620's sd to my girlfrend and her old samsung is using it without any problem's, but on mine it was crashing every 30mins....

I have the same problem but more problem when my LG O1 didn't recognize the card and I couldn't mount or format the card on my phone.
This happened when I partitioned the card. My PC still sees the card well but my phone doesn't.
I read a lot of posts from a lot of forums and I did try every guides steps by steps but it seemed as the LG O1 doesn't have any button-press-combination as others. For ex: when I pressed Back + Power On, nothing happened as It was said that the phone might come to FastBoot.
As help on this issue will be in much appreciated.
I fixed it. If your PC still recognizes the sd card, it's ok. Go to Manage (right click on My Computer) -> Device Management -> Storage -> you should see your card there. Try to delete volumn or format the EXT2 and Linux Swap.
Put the card back to your phone. It should recognize the card and then, unmount and format card and mount it back. Done.
I have a small question. What is the best class for this phone? The class 10 is fully used by phone or does not reach that read/write speed? Some micro sd class 10 are declared between 20 and 30 MB/S. The p500 has these capabilities? Or a Class 6 card is enough?
Thanks
UP!
The price for 32GB class 6 is very different from class 10.
Lg Optimus One is able to full use write/read speed of class 10?
Thanks
Help! I inserted a sandisk 4gb class 4 and my phone didn't recognized it (i got the 'SD card removed. Insert a new one.' notification). Then, i inserted back the original 2gb sd card from the box, but that notification is still there and it can't be recognized. But both my PC and a another android device (a galaxy tab) can detect it. So, i tried formatting both the 4gb and the original 2gb with the galaxy tab and inserted it to my O1 but nothing has changed. I tried updating to the official V10E firmware but it makes no diffrences. Any help please?

For future, don't remove SD card during phone is running because of app moved to SD card. Especially when you plan insert new one, and if you do that with custom ROM with app2sd its equivalent to suicide.
Is mass storage mode works? Is MS works in curstom recovery? Did you try format memory card in phone? Delete of caches?

Thx for the reply,
I haven't install a custom ROM yet. All i did was enable JIT+HW accel from a thread here.
1. Mass storage didn't work. It just appears as a new drive which i can't access.
2. I updated my O1 to V10E... I lost root, custom recovery,etc. so i can't try that
3. I formated it with another android device (a galaxy tab)
4. How do you delete the caches???? Sorry, new here
You had got me. For now I have not idea how to proceed.
Anyway, remove battery, remove SD card, clean sd card with some soft cloth, check if metal contacts looks fine (try clean that if not), insert SD card, insert battery and try it again.
If this not help, you can try some shaking and so on. It's sounds crazy, but I know one guy whose shaking helped him to flash firmware to phone, which not works at all. Maybe it's some cheats for all these issues.
ad 4) You can delete caches via custom recovery, but related to 2) you can't so, this hint is useless.
I did everything u said. I checked the SD card & the slot and they seem ok.
This might sound dumb, but what do you mean by 'shaking'? Which part are you suppose to shake?? Sorry, im still new to androids
BTW, i went to the LG customer care. The technician checked it and said that they are going to replace the SD card slot. She said that sparepart (the SD card slot) is going to arrive sometime in mid-January due to the holidays.
By the shake I mean grab phone and do quick movements with phone from left to right and back.
But it seems, that you have some trouble with hardware part(s) of phone.
Just played with it today and already feeling very limited . So came right here to XDA to root / install custom rom.
Many tutorials seems to be based on using SD card, i dont own one right now , I have a microSD card for my Xperia X10 , but its currently in use and has data/apps in it , so i cant format it . Is there a way to root / install CWM / Install CM 7 without SD card ?
Also if I am to buy a microSD card , which one to get ? i mean i am not going to store videos on my NT , so will a 4GB be sufficient ?and what class should i buy ?
Also why is it taking long time to charge from laptop / USB ? I cant use wall charger for now , since i dont have a converter yet. is there a way after rooting / installing CM7 to better the USB charging ?

If you don't have an SD card to work with, you could get root with this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354487
Flash CWM with this app:

And download CM7 from here:

Everything would be done internally.
As for the USB charging, it seems you're stuck with the slow charging until you get the adapter.

Oh, didn't know what version you were on. This method does not require you to format your SD card, but you'll need to use it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466583
Using a new SDCard (not one you have info stored on) make a new MSDOS partition table and add a 50 MB FAT32 partition as the first primary partition. Then make sure you enable to boot and lda flags.

But here it says to create a partition using gparted , IIRC after doing all partition , Gprated will erase the card and do the partition from the beginning ..
I have linux mint 12 as dual boot , I can use it there for partitioning.
Thanks a mil for helping me out
If your only gonna keep books and magazines then a 4gb card should suffice.. Movies and games will need a bigger card.. I got a 16 gb transcend class 10 from flipkart for Rs.1600.. its decent for that money.. oh and if you plan to run cm7 from externel sd card, you should know, the image itself is 4gb..

can you post the link to flipkart which you bought ?
image is 4gb ? :O , i would better run it from internally.. (280 MB right ? )
Have you reclaimed the B&N reserved space ?
Also which converter are you using for power supply ?
Guys its finally here...... ICS with " Tablet mode " for the Galaxy wifi/player 5.0 USA/INTER/KORN version.
Based off CM9 and its a AOKP ROM.
Link to main thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1638601
Video to show you what it is like:
What I found that does not work/problems:
HD video on YouTube, Normal 480p video works i think
Some graphical glitches not many though
Google chrome browser
Tablet apps from market can not be downloaded, although you can side load them and they will work
Usb mounting ??
Bluetooth
Camera on all ICS roms for this device
Overall though this ROM is great and try it out it the faster ROM yet.
Bluetooth and camera are not working either, deal brakers for me.

SD card doesn't mount either. I can live without bluetooth, camera, etc but my life is on my SD card.
Flashed it earlier and it does look promising. If we ever get a 3.0 kernel that would solve most of the issues.

I don't remember where, but I read that while the device is on, you take out the SD Card, then put it back in, and Android will mount it. I tried that and it worked, but I'm not sure how safe it is to do that. It certainly is inconvenient.

USB Mounting Issues
regarding the usb mounting issues, do you mean the external sd card doesn't mount when the device is on and you try to access it? For me the external card mounts fine. Before flashing the tablet mode mod I flashed the AOKP milestone 4 port so it might be an issue with CM9 and tablet mode?
I also noticed that I couldn't view the internal or external sd cards on my computer but I found an app which makes both cards visible to my pc. Its called Multi-Mount SD Card Lite and its available on the Play Store.

Yea i can not mount anything from the rom. Personally I just boot into recovery and mount all, so I have internal and sd card access.
That is weird. Once it is booted up, I pop the card out and put it back in. Presto-chango the card appears and I restored everything from Titanium Backup.

Hi every1, fairly simple question... but in true xda style you need some info.
Sgs3 ultimarom 8.0 running LOTS OF MASSIVE GAMES. Ive almost got every gamelost game. It will be a sandisk mobile ultra class 10 64gb micro sd card when it arrives. I currently use a 16gb (below) and with nothing but game data, 4gb music and my titanium backups I only have 300mb left. all of the games that use more than 200mb data in /sdcard/android/ are running off the external using directory bind. So I ordered a 64gb. Also I DONT WANT to use the 64gb as internal. I will be using directory bind. I know I have to use partition magic to make it fat32 (and still manage to keep 64gb). So cmw can use it. Correct?
My question is though would it be beneficial to partition it with 2 partitions 1 for games n one for everything else? WOULD IT BE FASTER???? Or shall I just dump them in a folder as I do now? If I do have 2 partitons will my phone mount them both without requiring an app to do it ? (like I do to mount ntfs - note I freeze this app when not in use as I dont want it always running)
Is there anything else I need to know?
Thanks everyone for the great community here! I love xda. Check it daily if not more! More than fb anyway and thanks in advanced.
O n if my search missed a thread that answers this, sorry please point me in that direction n lock thread...
you can use your phone to format it.
The phone won't recognize two partitions, and it won't make it faster
Hello ,
I guess i ****ed up my microSD card .
I had one 16 Gb A-data microSD card and for whatever reason , i try to format for APP2SD , that special partition, ext 3 or whatever .
But... not just i was not able to make it work , but when i tried to make it the way it was before ... it was stucked or seems to be a ireversible process.
I tried different methods but not one seems to work . I got to make a mention that the card was working just fine before i had that stupid idea.
No matter what , now windowx is showing to have only 1gb capacity, but... when i tried to format that 1 gb , everytime it fails.
flashnull , HPUSBDisk, SDFormatter, MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition, linux Gparted , every single tool i was thinking of was useless.
You guys are my last hope .
Thanks in advance for your help ...
Actually, the more you format it, the more harm you make, because sd cards are very sensitive when it comes to formatting them. I've successfully killed my 4gb microsd that way
