[Q] CM-10.2 Swap SD help? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys! Thanks for taking a look at my question!
To start off I'd like to say sorry if I misplaced this thread.
Ok so last night I flashed TeamChopsticks' CM-10.2 ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Exhilarate. If you have this phone, you'd know that is only has 1.12GB internal storage and 1.40GB internal SD space.. So, like on my last ROM, I decided to swap my SD cards- but for some reason in my build.prop file I didn't find anything that has to do with the SD swapping. I've checked to see if I have a vold.fstab and don't, so I'm guessing it should be in my build.prop. Please help? I don't know what I'm doing wrong.-.
Anything would be appreciated!

Bump, please guys. Even if it isn't for the phone, or just advice. Leave a comment?

I have a previous post that might be of use LINK. Definitely don't flash the zip itself though as your build prop will be different.

Lol thanks! It actually didn't work though *thanks anyways*

Is there a way to switch between cyangenmod and a custom stock rom?

Hi
I was wondering if theres a way to switch between cyangen and a stock rom, i want to try out cyangen but it doesnt seem to have enough of the features i regularly use but at the same time i would like to use it for roms only so i can use my ps3 controller with it.
- Going to another ROM from CM7?
You can go back and forth freely between CM7 and other ROMs via ROM Manager or ClockworkMod recovery as the file systems are the same and nandroid backup/restore works to go between ROMs.
That's what it says in the first post of cyanogenmod rom

I know you can do a nandroid backup but i was thinking more along the lines of running it off the sd card or somehow partitioning the system partition so you have 2 of them there. If i did the nandroid way, i would have to keep a large portion reserved for the backup and i would have to do it every time i wanted to play a game which would ruin the life of the flash memory and it would be a pain generally. I saw on All About Android there was an app called boot manager but i dont know if that will work on the SGS II

There is some experimentation with that at the moment, apparently it kinda works, i know there is a thread about it.
Search for boot manager sgs2 or sgs2 dual boot and it should be there.

Think the thread is in themes and apps section, just to narrow it down. Look for multiboot as search term.

i always back mine up on the internal sd card andhave a rom in there just in case..others may do it differently, but there are many options recovery allows you to download from pc via usb... but its better to always have a back up on your internal card in my opinion.. because in some cases you can lose access to the external sd card..just my opinion..just remember to take your time and read/follow instructions VERY carefully!!!:laugh:
sd card
if you dont have room on internal sd card..then yes get an external sd card(you should always have one) and move some stuff over like media..etc

You might be misunderstanding on the sd card, you have an internal sd the phones drive, this is where I put my ROMs to flash. The external sd that you can put into the phone is or can be your backup, I use an external meaning I can remove it, this is where I put my backups of items.
I only use the built in drive internal sd for storage of my ROMs to flash. There are lots of video on this subject, just do a youtube search on the subject.
While we are at it, if you are on a computer check my links in my signature, I have a {General information and Helpful Tips} section for some good reading and the GNote Super page also for all your flashing needs. And you can PM me or just keeping posting lots of good folks around that will help.

Honestly, you need to use the search function. Read everything you can. If you have to ask if you're wrong, you're wrong about something. I know you don't like to hear this, and I also know you don't want to ruin your device. If you don't take the time to read and research, you won't understand the Rom that you flash anyways thus leading to more questions from you that can be solved by searching and you will only annoy the developers and ruin things for everyone because you developed bad habits of wanting things dropped in your lap. No one is here to hold your hand through the process when there's a wealth of information at your fingertips. All of the people that have accomplished flashing their phones have done so without a thread like this begging for a walkthrough. With all due respect, follow the rules because nobody is responsible for damage to your phone, but yourself.
Finally got the rom installed and working...just restoring my apps and data....but it's asking for permissions to install apps for each app...I'm using titanium backup app...thanks a lot u guys...(who ever helped)

I wasn't asking them to thank me. I was reminding them to thank those who helped them. You would know that if you read as per the forum rules. You know what else is part of the forum rules? Using the thanks button. Imagine that. Perhaps you should spend less time trolling me and spend more time watching the Official XDA Welcome video. Seems like you still need it. I'll link it for you so you don't have to search. Don't forget to use the thanks button!

[Q] ICS on Archos101IT

Hi guys,
I am new in this. I have downloaded all the files that bizcuite mentions (I think). One of my questions is, is the zlmage file the same as the kernel file. If not where can I download the kernel?
When I try to install the zlmage the archos says that it couldn't find any zlmage, while I have put in on the internal sd card. Also I get the question to put in the last disk because it is a zip file.
I hope someboy can help me. I have been reading as much as I could find in this forum, but it won't work.
Thank you.
Regards,
Nino
I bet you didnt reach as much as you could. zImage is the kernel file and it has to be renamed from "zImageBLABLABLA.zip" to "zImage" without extension or something else like a date of the build etc. You have to put it inside the recovery not inside the SD card.

Thanks for your reply. I think this is what I am doing wrong.
What do you think is better on the Archos 101 G8, Urukdroid or ICS based on CM.

Hi guys,
I have downloaded all the files as mentioned in the manual. Have installed the zlmage and initramfs.
Then I have put on the root of the internal sd card the image of ICS and renamed it, copied also the ICS 512 mb(data.img.tar.gz) file and have made the .lst file. (all done through the update firmware menu)
Still I think I am doing something wrong because when I go out (push the on button as confirmation to update) of the update firmware menu it gives me a failed to update firmware message.
Hope you can help me.
Sorry for my ignorance.
Thank you.
Nino

Are you using an E970 kernel?
I took your advice and flashed mystery emotions kernel and still no luck i dont even have an option in storage to mount sd if i sent you the zip would you be willing to take a look everything works perfect except for this. Im not sure if it is because the e975 doesnt have external storage and i have to edit something. Thanks in advance
Follow the little guide at the end of the op.

Simple framework edit that was used for N4 conversions. Should work the same to get the SD card working. If ya can't figure it out (took me a while) upload the framework-res.apk on here and I'll fix it up for ya.

As most of you I have the same problem with my SD card. I started "playing" with my phone yesterday....
I have Xperia Neo V and i installed today CyanogenMod. - It looks fine but ... no apps. Furthermore I tried to create partitions over my SD card with
MiniTool Partition Wizard. I tried to install the Jelly Bean, but I get the message that sd card cannot be mounted. Can somebody help me with details over the procedure? (download links and steps)
Thanks in advance
I think the instructions are too fuzzy for me ...
Hi @spirto82 you originally posted your question into a HTC One S thread, so I moved your post into the proper device forum.

I think you've created a wrong file system while partitioning. Mind elaborating what file system did you select while making the partition?

I formated the SD as an NFS partition and as Primary and solved the problem! Indeed it was the file system type!
