Wallpaper set and save, I tried the rm command it wont work for a stale file is there any way to do this.
unless you really mounted a network drive, there's no way you can get a "stale NFS file", so the file system is corrupted.

So I have wallpaper set and save as being stale, does that mean more files will become like this, and that my ext2 partition is bound to fail, cause I can live without that wallpaper program, as long as the rest of my stuff is stable. Does this mean more files will eventually become corrupt.

Not necessarily. nfs stale file handle just means that nfs cannot resolve the nfs file handle that ext2 encoded for it. there could be many reason for it. lots of time, remount would fix the problem.

How would I do this remount process exactly? And would I be risking anything?
What exactly are you doing. Where are you getting this error?

I'm trying to install the program wallpaper set and save but the phone won't let me cause its a stale nfs file on my memory card ext2 partition, and I wanted to know if there is any way to fix that
Rebooting the phone does not solve it? If not then u might have an issue with your sdcard.
No reboot didn't help, this is the only app that does this so I don't think its the sdcard. I think it was a bad installation, and now its stuck somehow, oh well hopefully someone might find a resolution for this.
I was wondering would it be possible to move my apps back to the phone, and then delete the wallpaper set and save from a program like linda file manager then put them back on the sd card.

do you have adb setup?
just do "adb shell ls /data/app/" and see if that wallpaper app is there... if it is try to remove it "adb shell rm /data/app/<name.apk>

nope that didnt work, will it be possible to move them back to the phone, I used recovery mode to put them on my sdcard, and Im on RC33mod, can I do the undo copy.sh app or do I have to use recovery again.
I dont know about the copy.sh script, but u can do it by removing the symlink in /data/app
And then copy the app dir from sd back to /data

Sorry Im not to savy with all this, How would I go about doing that.
so there is no other way of me getting rid of wallpaper set save stale nfs, and reinstalling it, cause I cant get it on my phone. thats the only program and I like using to set my wallpapers is there another way.
you could always mount it in linux and run fdisk. delete that partition and remake it. that is what I had to do to clean up my /system/sd directory from stale NFS handles. If you need more help with this let me know.
Hey Guys whenever i download any apps from market i get the error Install Unsuccessful .... Insufficient storage ...
What to do :-/
Rom Hell Fire v7.2
UOT Kitchen Flashed 1
Overclocked 729 Mhz
Wildfire
delete apps or move some to SD card? If your memory is full it's logical you can't add apps
Sounds to me that a2sd is not properly set up.
I been having some issues running out of storage internaly. and after some fiddeling around with a2sd it was ok. And how to do it is posted in this rom's explanation on how to install it.

The ROM takes about 10 minutes to start for the first time since the beginning makes for a facility, I recommend formatting the memory trageta do a clean install or possibly delete the folders: ANDROID, LOST DIR ANDROID as these folders SECURE conflicts created by data from the old roms
I recommend making partitions ie swap64mb ext512 and the rest as fat32 mind too expensive or necessarily recommend formatting the card will memory or possibly delete the folders in the same android, haer all the wipes, the Rom takes a few minutes to make first start since being installed all the extras on the first boot takes 3 to 5 minutes, once this echo this start and made previous settings obligation is to do a reboot for full functionality telefeno
Installation of the rom:
1. reboot in recovery mode
2. we wipes all
3. selected to install update sip
4. restart the tlf
5. enter the terminal console and register the following:
his press enter
# a2sd cachesd or enter
the phone will reboot and have about 150 megs of free internal memory

Hi all, i have same issue.
Yesterday i finally rootat my Wildfire and put Cyanogenmod 7.0.3.stable on it.
Its very nice!
BUT cant allways install apps from market. I have 87mb free on inside memory and 1,7gb in sdcard... So what is problem?
What i need to do? I can full wipe all my data from telefone if somone tell me how i can do this..
Can somone help?
Use dalvik wipe from xrecovery to clean ur phone data..

try istalling darktremor a2sd script (need to be istalled from recovery if not already integrated into your rom) and download a2sdgui from market, it's a gui for the script mentioned earlier. into recovery you have to partition your sd card too (advanced) 1024mb ext and i suggest 64mb swap, then open the app I told you (a2sdgui) and move everything to ext, dalvik cache too.
I agree with the poster above.
if you have issues with a2sd, I recommend installing A2SDGUI from market. (I assume you already have darktremors a2sd script installed). I had darktremors script working fine, but after flashing a zip file, it was not working. So I installed the A2SDGUI from darktremor and fixed the script. Now it is working. Just search the market and install it. It is great. Now I have around 168 MB free after all the installed apps.
Hope this helps,
SOLUTION TO INSUFFICIENT STORAGE:
1. Use FROYO+ default apps2sd. It gives the option to force moving of 95% of the apps to sdcard. Even root is not necessary. You can move 95% of apps only after using the adb command "adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2". This command is not even needed in cm7. And this method uses the fat/fat32 partition of sdcard not the ext partition. Specifically apps will be installed to .android_secure folder in the root of sdcard.
2. This method includes creating ext partition on sdcard and using an app called "link2sd". This is a root only app. No scripts are needed. That app has option to even link individual apps to ext partition. Also links dalvik cache.
3. Creating ext + swap partition and using dtapps2sd script. Root is required. Also custom recovery is required for flashing the script. This might be the toughest one but it is pretty awesome. Moves apps , data, dalvik cache to ext partition. Everything can be done with commands from the terminal emulator. Or you can use the "a2sdgui" app for graphical user interface.

The GUI for the script is much more user-friendly than emulator terminal. And you can undo everything you did if it's not as you tought faster than from terminal.
I am not aware of how Hell Fire works. But yes for Cyanogenmod 7 I know there is a issue downloading a large application from the market. It won't download. Problem is the space.
Fix for this is few steps:
1. In Terminal type the following commands.
2. su
3. mkdir /sdcard/download-cache
4. cd /cache
5. mv download download.bak
6. ln -s /sdcard/download-cache download
Done... Now Go to market and download anything you won't get such errors..
If It Helps Don't forget Press Thank Button.
Thanks a lot!
I just get my new sd-card( 16 Gb) and install darktremor a2sd script + a2sdgui.
Works just like it says!
No more thinking what program van install and what not....
Well I just installed the MOdd Again ... and I was done
Though i bought Samsung Galaxy ace as its my second time the Touch Panel doesn't work ... first in Tattoo and den in Wildfire
So ... Thanx a lot guys for Helping

Hi,
REMEMBER
FIRST OF ALL, do a Nandroid backup, as well as a backup of your sd-card content !
You're doing this at your very own risk, I'm not to be held responsible if something goes wrong
Now that said, let's get going
In case somebody wants to check it out, here is the swap activation script I wrote (attached) as well as explanations on how to make it all work :
1) Partition your sd-card (Minitool Partition Wizard, 4ext, CWM...)
2) Boot your system with the partitionned sd-card
3) If necessary customize the 99swap script (attached to this post) and then put it onto your sd-card's root folder, you'll need it while executing the commands in step 4.
4) Open a terminal and type the following
NB: Change "mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p3" accordingly to point to the swap partition you've created in step 1.
5) Reboot your phone, start a terminal again and type free, you'll need to see something different than 0 in your swap line, look at the attached print-screen
Swappiness will be set to 50 by the script, which is a rather conservative swap use, made sense to me since SD-swap is slower than ram, better not to use it too agressively. Feel free to experiment with the swappiness variable in the script (values between 0 and 100, 0 meaning "try not to swap", 100 meaning "try to swap all the time")
If you want to try and have a question, just let me know !

Hi JP,
This is a gem of a post! Thanks alot for the script and the detailed breakdown. Before I get into it though, I must warn you that I am more of a beginner with no coding/scripting experience (I don't know how to use adb or anything)...
Here's what I'm trying to do: I'm trying to activate hard-swap on my hd2 (currently) running the ParanoidAndroid by Xylograph. I've created 3 partitions on my 16gb class 6 sd card: first, fat32 (32k cluster), next, 1GB ext2 (default), 500MB swap.
Procedure:
1. I extracted the script and copied it directly to system/etc/init.d folder of the Rom (I looked at the terminal commands you posted and the first few lines looked like copying the file from the sd root to the init.d folder (it was just a guess though), so I figured might as well put it into the rom before I flash it)
2. Flashed the rom
3. To activate it, I typed the following into the terminal:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
mount -o remount,ro /system
exit
after the mkswap command, I did get an activation notification that a certain amount was assigned to swap. But my celebrations were cut short after I rebooted and used the free command to check. The entire swap row still read 0.
I was wondering if you can point me in the right direction... thanks!
Also, is there a way to create a cwm flashable version?

In fact you understood correctly that is was about copying the file to init.d.
By the way, these commands do the following :
mount -o remount,rw /system - Mount system partition in read-write
mount -o remount,ro /system - Mount system partition in read-only
So to format the swap partition "mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p3" there was no need for it, but it didn't harm in any way, so you're fine there
I guess what is missing is the "chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/99swap" command which will set the correct file access to the script so it can get executed at boot.
You might do the following in a terminal :
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/99swap
mount -o remount,ro /system
exit
It should be fine then.
Alternatively you could set the rights with your file explorer (in root explorer mode), they must be "rwxr-xr-x" (which is Read-Write-Execute, Read-Execute, Read-Execute), most file-manager will allow you to do that as well.
I've been working on the script variant for htc Sensation, it is more advanced, dynamic so it can find the swap partition by itself.
I'll make a CWM flashable as soon as I get to it that will handle everything except partitioning the SD card, obviously, for both devices.
As soon as I'm done I'll post the HD2 version here as well (very little change, between both devices, just the access path to the sd-card partitons to change (=1 line in the script).
JP.
Edit ------------------------------------------------
I just reread your post, if in fact you put it into the ROM zipfile, then file access should be correct !?
Could you post the following file (if it exists) :
/data/swap.0.log ?

Hi JP
You are incredibly helpful and I appreciate it!
I finally got some time off and tried out what you mentioned... but to no avail. I applied the necessary permissions through the terminal (chmod 755) as well as through the root browser, but it was still the same. After that I even retried the terminal commands, and included the "chown 0:2000...", but that didn't work either...
... and then I saw your post update...
About that, i just typed it into the terminal, and I got "not found".

Hi JP, once you told me it was the address to the file, i just navigated there using my explorer and lo and behold!, there it was (attached). If you must know, in my earlier post, the idiot in me just typed it in the terminal and the terminal replied not found.
I made my partition using freeware called Minitool partition wizard. Is 500mb too big for swap in your opinion? I was thinking of compensating for zram, and hence the size... thanks for your speedy responses...

Hmm ... strange, the content of the file looks like a logcat ?! Not what I was expecting to see
Give me a little hour, and I think I should be done with the flashable hard-swap and we'll go from there
Minitool is excellent, but did you pay attention to only create "primary" partition ? If it is a logical partition it won't work...
Can you insert your SD card into your card reader, start Minitool an post a print screen of it ?
JP.
EDIT :
About size ... I believe 256Mb is enough, even read somewhere t shouldn't be more than 256, but I think there was no specific reason given.

Here we go...
Minitool image attached... I typically pay attention to the partition type and made sure both of them were primary
About the logcat, I suspect you're right... I was trying to do one from my pc for the first time using adb and tried the only few commands I know (mkswap...), I think that's what you saw then...
Incidentally, do you feel if I reduce the swap size, the script has a better chance at surviving the boot?

What?
Delete one unused app from the /system partition. You should be able to do so within Link2SD. Just filter the system apps and remove one (make sure that something doesn't rely on it!) If you don't use app E-Mail (not Gmail) you can remove it, only the E-mail and not the provider. That should work, I have done it this way too.

Hmm, Link2SD works but it won't work?
You need to delete some files in /system/ in order to create the mount script. Our system parition is too tall. So delete some files you don't need from system.
Example:
If you don't like E-Mail, delete Email.apk from /system/app/
And so on!
Recovery: That's normal! It isn't a problem, it's on every LG-P500!

Hello,
I would like to get some help with my SD-Build Android MccM MIUI.
First it started random crashes of the lockscreen. I could power on the display but it kept being black. I only could reset my HD2 and reboot my Android.
Now my Android doesn't boot anylonger. It opens the HTC-Boot-Animation und nothing happens. I waited about an hour.
I replaced the Android-folder on my SD-Card and Android booted again. But my contacts and the apps (their stored data) which I installed after the backup aren't available. With the old version, Android don't boot. If I only replace data.img with my backup, Android boots but without the apps.
My question ist, how do I get the apps-data (e.g savegames) exported from data.img and imported in my backup version?
Could please someone help me?
Greetings Marco
PS: Sorry, my English is a little bit rusty.

I am a little confused. Did you overwrite your data.img file or do you still have the original one? If you still have it your apps and data should be contained in there.
You should be able to read/view the file in Linux if you have a bootable Linux CD.
If you only have Windows copy the original data.img file to your PC and download/install this old program and unzip it. It should allow you to view the content of your data.img and extract things from it.

I'm sorry about your confusion.
I backuped the data.img file before overwriting it with an older backup to get Andoid working again. So I still have the file which seem a little bit corrupt.
These were my thoughts that the apps should be stored in there. I think I'll try both suggestions. Thanks.
Edit: Thanks for your help. I already had ext2explorer on my PC. And I could open data.img. Now I have to find the place where the apps stored (savegames ) their data and my phonebook. Any suggestions where to look for the phonebook and maybe the game tribez?

That gets a little more complicated.. Generally, the contacts are stored in a SQLite database. The location can vary depending on the ROM that is installed.
The simplest attempt, without getting too technical and installing a SQLite CLI is to look for the contacts database. Try something like this in the terminal window:
Code:
su
find /system -iname '*.db' |grep ontact
Hopefully, you will see something like this as a result:
Code:
/dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.contacts/contacts.db
/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db
You can try copying the files and see if they help.
Good luck!

Thanks again.
Found the contacts in data/... but copying it into the other data.img caused some shutdown of ...acore process/program. The same problem with the savegame. Process tribez is unsepected stopped...
Maybe I'm doing something wrong mounting the data.img. Do know the exact command for mounting the file correctly for writing data?

You are asking good questions but not easy ones to answer. The mount command is specific to your device and rom. I do not have any sd roms to look at.
Let's try a few things.
First, try to clear cache for the contact apps. You can use ROM Toolbox or the system's app manager. This may help.
Second, you can try to look in the ROM's system folder and see if you have something like init.rc (probably in root, if there) If you find it look at it with a text viewer and search for Mount. You may find the proper command line.
Last, and this one needs to be modified, you can try something like these in the terminal window. Keep in mind that your device names and file systems are most likely different!
Code:
mount yaffs2 [email protected] /mnt/cache nosuid nodev
mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /NativeSD wait noatime nodiratime barrier=0

Thanks for your help. I made it work.
As I use an older SD-Version of Android your last code I couldn't use.
For those who will have a similar problem:
With the programm file I checked the data.img and it is an ext4 image which I mounted in linux. I mounted the workung data.img file, too.
Next I deleted the folders which contained the contacts and of cause the savegame from the good data.img. Then I copied these folders from the faulty data.img into the good data.img. But I had to use the terminal and cp with option -a to preserve the ownerships of the files and folders.
After that I used fsck on the unmounted data.img and copied the file back on my sd card. Everything worked fine.
Thanks again and greetings from Germany
