Hi,
I cant mount and wipe :
/data - it write : cant mount /dev/block/stl7
/cache - it write : cant mount /dev/block/stl8
/dalvik-cache - it write : cant mount /dev/block/stl7 (File exists)
it does not matter if I have JPQ or JPS, deodexed or stock - problem i same ...
any tips ?
Delete all partitions from your sdcard, format it (not in CWM, with a 3rd part program) and then re-create partitions (from CWM).

I did this already and it does not helped as it result to this state
I created partitions with CWM included at Kyrillos 7.0
I checked there are no difference at this CWM and CWM included at Kyrillos.
But I get same issue when I used later stock ROM and deodexed too with G3MOD 1.7 kernel. There was first time I see wipe issue ...
Now I am trying gparted, we will see. ..
OK, tested, I exactly did it like You said and unfortunatelly it does not work, I get same results :-( ... and what worst I will ahve to again move 32 GB of data -**** :-(
any other tips ? different kernel usage etc ?
thnaks for any help ...

when i had this problem once, the filesystems were gone from EXT2 / EXT4 to RFS after flashing a new rom.
i don't know which filesystems u use...
have a look into /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/fs.current , if u use g3mod kernel. (for fugumod kernel it's /sdcard/Android/data/fugumod/fs.current)
put a file "fs.convert" in /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/ (or .....fugumod/)
the file looks like attached... (!!! cut off .txt extension !!!)
after that you have to reboot (!!! not into CWM !!!) and WAIT PATIENTLY for the kernel to convert the filesystems.
After that you should have no problems anymore with the CWM recovery.
good luck!
/data + /cache deleted - pfeeeeeeeeeeeeee !
ufff,
as noone knows and nothing work, I tried some stupidity
I changed permission to /data and /cache and tied delete them manually (mean after it there were no /data and no /cache directory.
NO flash JPS helps, no wipe data helped , I though phone were to the hell , as I always stucked at screen lock , then I see some error message setup cant process, forced closure and phone restart .over and over again
I tried flash Kyrillos 7.0 OC and it works - I am back inj game again
anyway I think there have to be made some changes to CWM, because :
- Kyrillos ROM -all wipes and mounts work
- G3 MOd kernel - wipes and mounts does NOT work correctly
- other kernel after apply CWM - wipes and mounts does not work correctly
as i told you: after flashing JPS all filesystems are converted to rfs
you can also use g3modAPP to change it (only under g3 kernel i think)

what does it means to me ? - as Kyrillos 7.0 is JPS based too ...
If I will convert rfs to efs (?) will CWM work to me even at JPS ?
what partitions have to be converted to make CWM works ?
If Kyrillos use rfs too, can be CWM files riped backward from Kyrillos ROM /system to stock/deodexed JPS ?
I need JPS stock + fugumod ultra + 5lockscreen_extended menu + CWM
And I tried CWM at JPQ , same issue - cant mount /wipe

Ok, I will try, I did no tee your post because of some page error (my side ) thanks
if u use STOCK rom there is NO CWM.
Even NOT if u use fugumod kernel.
CWM is included in custom ROMs e.g. Kyrillos' ROM
and in G3mod kernel.
If u want to have CWM you must use one of both.
When u have flashed a stock rom, the filesystems are converted to RFS.
Look into above attached file and u will see what is usually used for partition filesystems.
mmcblk0p2 ext4 (external sd-partition)
stl6 ext2 (/system)
stl7 ext4 (/data)
stl8 ext2 (/cache)
Further, when u wanna use the external partitions on the sdcard u have to use Kyrillos' app2sd script in /etc/init.d
To convert the filesystems is a just suggestion - it should also work with RFS (though i'm not sure about that....)
but you have to look at /sdcard/Android/data/fugumod/fs.current to see what filesystems are used.

I have stock NON deodexed and CWM works after conversion
I had no proble mount all and wipe all
I have ext4 as sd-ext

bro if ur using g3mod then just convert all filesystems to ext2 using g3mod app ..............................its tested n m pretty sure tat it'll work

no, I am using Fugumod 1366 only, I get best results and most stable instead of G3MOD kernel 1.6 and 1.7
but I am not sure about ext2 vs ext4 someone test it on PC and ext2 get better speed results

Hi All!
I just made my first custom ROM:
It based on stock 2.2 JPF: only modification is rooting and converting to ext2 data system and cache partitions.
Flash it after flashing full stock JPF (My ROM don't contain bootloader, modem etc, so you must first flash stock JPF)
DON'T wipe after reboot, it will format you data and cache partitions back to RFS. I don't changed recovery binary, so please don't wipe if you want ext
ROM works OK for both rfs and ext2, so it will work, but no point to use my ROM with rfs
Any feedback is appreciated.
Update:
My JPM ROM converted to ext4
Stock firmware, only changes are rooted, busybox, fugutweak, (removed Layar and thinkfree for space, ext4 left less space for users ;( )
quadrant score is 470
Used apollo5801 kernel with modified initramfs to allow ext4 ext2 and rfs FS on all partitions, it use possibility to have data2sd
As for me, use ext4 for /system is has no much sense. Better use ext2 for /system and /cache, wile using ext4 for /data
/system normally is R/O, /cache has no vital information, so it better to use it with ext2 for performance
URL for ROMs:
My JPF ext2 ROM: http://www.multiupload.com/KQBT92RM0U
My JPM ext4 ROM: sorry, link removed, it has issue with WIFi
Interested in it. Give a detailed list of steps, please.

Hello,
I am interested in your ext2 ROM.
It's not quite clear for me how to flash it. I mean this: "DON'T wipe after reboot". Do you mean I should not do a factory reset? What about factory reset right after flashing stock JPF?
Would you write a detailed list of steps?
Thank you.

My ROM is kind of POC, it's not customized or so, main goal is try ext2 instead of rfs
1 - Flash stock JPF firmware.
2. - After flashing stock JPF you may do "wipe data/factory reset", or don't do factory reset.
3. - Flash my ROM.
4. - After reboot don't do "wipe data/factory reset" or "wipe cache partition", just choose "reboot system now"
If you do all right, you will get system data and cache partitions in ext2, only efs partition will stay in rfs.

With a factory reset, the partitions will be converted back to .rfs?

Hello
system partition in any case will stay in ext2
"wipe data/factory reset' will reformat data and cache partition to rfs
"wipe cache partition" will reformat cache partition to rfs
Because of this don't do factory reset if you want test ext2 for data or cache partitions
P.S. looks like we need tweaked/custom recovery, if you know any - send me a link, pls
does it is working
I flashed your ROM
Hello,
I flashed your ext2 ROM just now.
Everything seems to be OK.
mount shows:
"/dev/block/stl6 /system ext2 rw,relatime,errors=continue 0 0
/dev/block/stl7 /data ext2 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,errors=continue 0 0
/dev/block/stl8 /cache ext2 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,errors=continue 0 0"
It is rooted and has busybox installed by default! Thanks.
Stock JPF upgraded by your ext2 ROM still workes well.
I also use Link2SD with 2nd (ext2) SD card partition for selected programs.

From my ext2 ROM: overall performance index by Quadrant increased from 325 to 520 after converting from rfs to ext2
ext4 is must be faster than ext2, but it uses more CPU, so need to get real user experience.
hi mumbozver,
what do you think about deodexing? does it make sence make ROM deodexed if this ROM is converted to ext2? i have heard some thoughts deodexed rom is not faster than non-deodexed... the higher performance is reached by ext2, not deodexing. is it true?

Deodexing is increase first boot time after flashing and decrease available space in /data partition, but increase space in /system (you will get half of space, that you are wasting in /data. In deodexed ROM you need to store odexed "classes.dex" in /data/dalvik-cache and zipped deodexed "classes.dex: inside *.apk or *.jar files on /system).
So you will get lesser overall free space in you phone and slower first boot. Thats all about deodexing performance.
Main reason to get deodexed ROM is ability to change themes, and possibly put in /system some program of user choice, so programs will survive factory reset. But in my ROM factory reset will convert /data and /cache partitions back to rfs, so deodexing in my point is not needed.

After Gallery3d removal it run something about 2 days.

I use a Galaxy 3 I5801, with DDJP2 stock and rooted.
I tried to apply kyrillos' new Honeycomb theme by flashing the zip file provided in the v5.0_Extra_package by renaming the file Honeycomb_theme-signed.zip to update.zip, and putting it in the sd card root folder.
But, in recovery mode, if i select SDCARD:update.zip option, it says :
E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0
E: Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Any solution to this?
Note: I was using kyrillos rom v4.1 oc before this, and I had used Madteam app2sd to partition my 16GB sd card, with 1GB app2sd space.
Would that be causing this problem?

You need CWM recovery to flash update.zip files .. DDJP2 has stock samsung recovery .. Flash any of the custom roms with cwm and you will be able to flash update.zip .. If you don't wasn't to flash a custom rim ask mumbozver for his cwm installer and run it for your phone...

In the newest versions of G3Mod you can have all filesystems. So no need to revert back to rfs, you can just flash!
Happy flashing!
It was only for the early version. You can flash kernel at any file system you want.

With G3Mod Kernel, all you have to do is create a file named "fs.convert", put it in /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/ and reboot
In fs.convert file you have to put:
Code:
stlX file_system_type
Where X is the partition number and file_system_type is, well, you know XD.
If you want to convert various partitions in a row, it should be like this:
Code:
stlX file_system_type
stlY file_system_type
stlZ file_system_type
Remember:
Code:
stl6 -> /system
stl7 -> /data
stl8 -> /cache
For example, let's say I want to convert /system to ext4. So i create the file and write this in it:
Code:
stl6 ext4
Reboot, and done
hadi_xman said:

In terminal emulator (or adb shell), run the command "mount" and it will list all partition with it's respective format and mount options. Just look for the partitions you want to check

I flashed the kernel G3 mod Lite and installed the g3mod app by Dumpy and modified the file systems as said. After that I'm not able to see my partition. I was previously using Fugumod 2.4 beta3 and i had my sd card partitioned using Minitool. But now i can't see my partition even in Titanium BackUp. When changing file systems using g3mod app, i didn't change anything in mmcblk0. It was left as "rfs". Do i need to change it to something else? Thanks.
P.s. Do i need to activate data2sd?I didn't as I was already using App2sd by kyrillos and after this conversion i lost all my user apps. and my phone's free internal memory is now just 85MB. Previously it was 145MB.

How is your mmcblk0 rfs?? It should be ext3 or ext4.
Ah! It was not. I forgot to change it to ext3 or ext4. When using g3mod app i changed the file systems but left my mmcblk0 as rfs. Now I can't access my memory card using My files. And in "SD Card and Storage" menu it says "unavailable".Any suggestions? Would it work if i flashed g3 kernel and used the app again to change my mmcblk0 to ext3 or ext4?

The app shows all partitions as rfs by default.. As he said he left mmcblk as it is and changed the others.. Hence the partition got converted to rfs

i also have a HTC tattoo on which i also have CWM
on the tattoo i have the option of converting ext2 to ext4 ie on the system CWM
we dont have the same and im not confy with the above mentioned tools. so will Madteam apps work for me
and again another reason for this confusion is that recently i have been having alot of problems with the cooked roms not working well and i feel maybe this is because of me having ext2 & the cooked roms need ext4.Do correct me if im wrong here

umm.. if u really want to use minitool or gparted.. then y takin so much pain to use cwm to partition.. partition ur sd directly to ext4..
FuguMod and G3MOD kernels are capable of converting file systems of sd-ext partition too
add this line to fs.convert and making the partition through cwm(and btw i think it makes ext3 partitions)
anyways here's the line
Code:
mmcblk0p2 ext4
hope it helps

IF you made a partiton,convert it to ext4-helps a lot (in other ways too because ext4 is far more better than ext2)
the partiton isnt needed for any cooked rom
it is just an addon so we can get more space for apps
If you can specify what kind of problems you are having and on which rom then i can help more
Im using stock rom and hell fusion kernel, i made an ext4 swap partition but when i try to use swapper2 to use that swap partition, it say function not implemented. Is there any rom/kernel support ext4 and swap partition? since i also used gyperion 9 and it's not working too

I think Merruk's Kernel supports swap partition.
Give it a try.
