1) Yes you can .
2) The ext4 manager is usedun conjunction with CF-Root to make all your partitions convert from RFS to Ext4

Has anybody tried to run ntfs on Razr? Will it be possible?
Sent from my XT910 using XDA App
Do you mean external storage with NTFS? On my tablet I use an app for that.
I can release a kernel module for mounting NTFS partition on RAZR... I'll watch at it when I'll be back home (3hrs).
is this about getting a thumb drive to b mounted to the razr? If so can u make it foe he Verizon droid razr too....

Compiled.

Uncompress and insmod
Wouldn't we need to modify vold to be able to mount NTFS?
(ofc. you could mount it manually but...)
@pajn
Obviously. This was intended for manual mount.

I was just trying to mount an external ntfs drive tonight and ran across your post. Could you please explain how to do the insmod? Thanks for the help
su
insmod /path/to/kernelmodule
@kholk
Okey. Hopefully someone does that soon so we can mount any filesystem that the kernel supports with vold
Thx.........
Hi
What am I doing wrong
[email protected]_spyder:/# insmod /mnt/sdcard/ntfsmodule
insmod: error inserting '/mnt/sdcard/ntfsmodule': -1 Invalid module format
Thanks

When you extract it, you should get "ntfs.ko".
I fill quite stupid. inmod command works for me, but I don't know how to mount external drive. I try something like mount -t ntfs /dev/block/sda /mnt/usbdisk_1.1 , it finished without exception, but usbdisk_1.1 was empty.
Any suggestions for noob?

Thanks kholk, now it's works. I can read from my external HDD.
It is possible also to write to ntfs partition? Cause it doesn't work for me.

Will this work for the vetizon version too?

I found that for Samsung galaxy s2 that copy ntfs-3g to system/bin. I suppose that we cannot do that while we have locked bootloader.
We have on our Razr /bin/ntfs-3g. It is possible to use this to have possibility to write to ntfs partition? If I try to run it, I get errors with missing fuse. If we have fuse for our kernel we could maybe use ntfs-3g.
Can anyone help?

I must use umask=000 to see something. I cannot use -t ntfs-3g it throws me Device not found. I try to use
mount -o rw,umask=000 -t ntfs /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk_1.1, but still no writable access.
When I try
[email protected]_spyder:/# /bin/ntfs-3g
It returns
Mount is denied because setuid and setgid root ntfs-3g is insecure with the
external FUSE library. Either remove the setuid/setgid bit from the binary
or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root.
Please see more information at http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged
From what I read, ntfs-3g don't need to be compiled to specific kernel version so we can use from sgs2 or maybe build one. But fuse is kernel specific.
Any idea?

u have to run a script to mount the same
AFAIK an ext4 mounts better compared to fat32 for u

1. Partition the SD with CWM (easiest method) and you can be sure that the second partition disk type is of ext4 (latest CWM).
2. Rename other scripts in init.d, so that it gets executed only after the mount script has run (prioritize mount script).
3. Ext4 has many advantages over its earlier versions. So update the mount script's disk mount type to be ext4 (mount -t ext4).
4. If you are using low performance SD please update the script to mount the disk without mount options such as noatime.
5. Never add ext4 tweak if you are using mount scripts, it causes data corruption.
6. If you don't want the script to move certain folders in data partition then add the folder name to the moving data to SD ext.
Using a mount script is very easy, these points make it better.
BTW, I suggest you to try INT2EXT for EXT4 (with the above updations) the next time you reset your device.

Ok finally i observed that u disabled noatime, norealtime and zipalign code from the original int2ext4+ script..but i still dont understand what does that code do
Code:
-o nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=0,nobh,data=writeback,noauto_da_alloc
BTW thanks nanba for all the help dude..

Those are the options available while mounting a disk. You can Google for each one, read the Linux pages.

I prefer reverse mount than symlinks and for speed I leave dalvik cache on data partition. You can try that too.

Hi! I'm trying to install a rom and a ext4 file system is needed. But when I try to format RFS to EXT4 it's always failed. e:cannot format /cache (forgot the message)
Does anyone know how to properly using multi formatter?
