can someone explain why i have a folder 0 which i got here Computer\Nexus 7\Interner Speicher\0 ? all my former files are there. but folder Computer\Nexus 7\Interner Speicher contains also a lot of data from apps.
i think i have this folder since pa 3.0
any clues? what is the root folder now? because it used to be the folder where now everything moved to folder 0?!
thanks
Old news that could have been unearthed with a quick search. It has nothing to do with PA and everything to do with Android. 4.2. Google included multi-user support for tablets. As the primary user, your individual files are in data/media/0.

OK, so the debate over partitioning in CM10 is all but done and I'm not going to discuss it here.
I've been building CM10 for my own use with the partition layout change reverted and this works nicely for me. But what about people who can't compile the source for themselves (for whatever reason)?
That's why I'm posting this brief guide to what I'm calling "fudgedating" (its like updating). Using the method below you will be able to stay up to date with all the CM10 nightly updates (except kernel changes) without compiling or doing anything difficult.
ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BEFORE FLASHING
I'VE TESTED THIS WITH CM10 NIGHTLIES FROM 23082012 & 22082012 BUT IF IT FAILS TO WORK FOR YOU THEN I'M SORRY, THAT'S LIFE. RESTORE YOUR BACKUP & MOVE ON
What you'll need:
1. My cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip file (my nightly that has a working kernel with the old partition layout)
2. Any current Nightly zip of CM10
3. A computer with a Zip-capable archive tool
What you need to do:
1. Make a copy of cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip and call it something like CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip
2. delete the /system folder from within CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it)
3. extract the /system folder from your official CM10 Nightly
4. add that /system folder to your CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it)
Now you have a CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it) containing the kernel and partition layout from cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip and the system from the CM10 Nightly.
Copy CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it) to your SD card and flash it in CWM.
Reboot & profit
NOTE: currently you can NOT flash any custom kernels because there aren't any that support the latest CM10 while still having the old partition layout.
Whenever you want to repeat the process for a new Nighly, just do steps 2,3 & 4 again and flash it as before.
Please don't flame this thread. If you think its a bad idea then please state only technical objections to support your view.
All credit to Team Hacksung & Pawitp for the awesome effort that continues to go into CM10.
Well... old partition nightlies worked very good for me.So I will try this.
Anyway I noticed there are some jb ROMs with less changes than yours calling theirselfs stable so far etc.
Will you make thread of cm10 (or call it like you want) with old partition and newest nightly?
Thanks. Sorry for poor English.

Thanks but I don't want to start the hard work of maintaining a ROM thread. This is just instructions to stay up to date.
I do compile my own CM10 which you can download by clicking on my signature. Again, I won't be starting a thread for this as its really just for me but I don't mind sharing.
I will change the thread title though.

That's good to know. I think we both must have phones with the faster NAND because I didn't see any improvement when the official partition layout changed.

No need to wipe.
If you are flashing a new build over a previous one then you also don't need to reflash gapps

Managed to install your rom, and I got what I want. However I have a probler with Adaway said: /data/data/host not enough spare. Try Adfree solve the problem. Anyway thank you for the idea and rom.
Edit: Just discovered that System had only 300k free space out of 350MB. Maybe I have to delete some not important apk (like those live wallpapers) & unused ringtones.
Edit2: After deleting Chinese & Korean fonts Droidsansfallback , MTL* & Nanum Gothic, I got 12MB free space and Adaway runs smoothly.

That's fine. I think pawitp might get a bit lazy with the system size now that his build has a 2gb /system
Maybe I'll have to trim it down in the future.

A rom more in line with the Slim Bean philosophy (about 280mb system with google apps) would even allow you to create a larger datadata partition (at the expense of unused system partition space, circa 80mb) and improve usability. Using this mind-frame i guess we could gain some 50mb to datadata while still keeping 30mb free in system for people who want to add some removed system apps.
Nevertheless, this is your rom and ultimately your decision.

Its a good idea & perfectly possible. Pawitp just asked for some chip id data in the CM10 thread. It looks like lags could be associated with phones having the older Samsung MoviNand chip. Newer devices have a Sandisk iNand (same as Nexus S). I have the Sandisk so that's why the new partition layout made no difference to me. I'm not sure that increasing datadata would help. I don't use it because I don't see any gain in practice.

I'm able to open .odt and .ods files, but haven't found a way to edit the documents. Is there any app that allows to do it?
Also, why do i have so many problems opening documents directly from my usb pen? Usually it gives an error

There is currently not a solution for editing odf files on android. However, the LibreOffice team is hard at work porting the entire suite to Android.

Hi,
I am using cookies & cream 1.3.1 custom rom on my Nexus 7.
Now that 4.2 is out , I'd like to pass to a 4.2 based custom rom.
However, Cookies is discontinued and everybody is talking about a Paranoid Android ROM.
I am not able to find the thread.
Where is the exact thread for this rom ?
thx
Original development forum. C&C is discontinued in name only since Aaron said he'll be merging many of its features into PA 3.0.

Paranoid Android 2.99 thread is here.
And this is the thread for the earlier version (2.0-2.54) of Paranoid Android that's based on Android 4.1.
thanks. But this thread is in Galaxy Nexus forum.
So I assume it's not fine for Nexus 7 , is it ?
Thanks.

I think...
Paranoid Android runs fine on the Nexus 7. Just download and flash the grouper zip file. I'm staying on 4.1.2 because of too many issues with 4.2's emulated, fused, and symlinked directory structure, so I'm running Paranoid Android 2.54 instead of 2.99 beta 5.1.
thanks for this feedback.
when do you think it will be safe ffor moving to 4.2. ?
Maybe a month for most users.. CWM, TWRP, and Stickmount have workarounds already, I understand.
I'm reading my data from a USB flash drive, using an app that's unsupported, so i may never change to 4.2.
I'm using Stickmount. What's your app for that purpose ? What keeps you from using Stickmount anyway ?
BTw, should I update my recovery before updating to 4.2 ? (TWRP)

Not sure why the new file system freaks people out so much. For the most part you can just ignore all the symlinks etc. This type of file system is SOP on Linux (which is the embedded OS under android for those that don't know)
The intention of Google was for people to use /sdcard/0 for file management if you are the original/first user. That is not that hard a change from /sdcard is it?
Now that the recoveries are updated there is even less reason to avoid the file system. And perhaps the best reasons not to avoid is that this is the new file system moving forward.
For people who flash and tweak they especially need to gain an understanding rather than avoid it.
Exglynco, this is not directed directly to you. You just happened to express a dislike of the 4.2 file system.

Nexus 7
Clean ROM 3.0 - Leankernel 0.8.x
Ezas,
I actually upgraded to Android 4.2 the morning it went public, and went through the learning curve with all the other early adapters. I lost root, lost my CWM custom recovery and backups, and couldn't see my apps data on my flash drive for a week or more until Stickmount was patched to work with 4.2.
So, I've been through the learning curve, and rejected 4.2, because it doesn't do what I want it to do. I'm storing 10gb of backups and apps data on flash drives connected to my 8gb and 16 gb N7s. I use the orphaned Directory Bind app to bind the source directories on my flash drives to phantom target directories on my N7s in 4.1.2.
In 4.2, Directory Bind will bind the true source directory path (e.g. /mnt/shell/emulated/0/usbStorage/sdb1/xxx) to the phantom target path,(/sdcard/xxx) but my apps don't read their data properly, and Directory Bind won't accept the true target path (/mnt/shell/emulated/0/xxx).
mrmrmrmr, I do use Stickmount, but not with 4.2.
I can see my Nexus 4 in Windows 7 and transfer files via the USB port on my laptop, but not with Linux Mint 13 KDE. Is anyone out there able to see their Nexus 4 via Linux Mint or any Linux OS using the USB port on their computer? If so how are you doing it?

Thanks Donniezazen, I found that the Webupd8 method didn't work just right for me so I made some modifications some others finding this thread may find helpful.
First I did as Webupd8 said but when it came to using the Unity script I could not find it. So I created 2 scripts (in my user directory with permissions for my user) called
mountnexus4.sh
go-mtpfs /media/MyAndroid
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and
unmountnexus4.sh
fusermount -u /media/MyAndroid
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
made them both executable and then dragged them to my toolbar creating a widget. Then created an image of a Nexus 4 and an image of a nexus 4 with a red not symbol on it. Changed the widgets icons and locked the toolbar. Result is when I click on one it mounts my Nexus 4 and the other un-mounts my Nexus 4. Works for me.
VillainTheme System for the Nexus 5
Linked below is a template of the VR Theme System for the Nexus 5. I noticed that some of you had butchered pulser_g2's beautiful code to get it working on our device (as well as some incorrectly coded updater-scripts). So, I thought I'd try to do a more proper job (hopefully I did ).
All credit goes to @pulser_g2 and the Villain ROM Team. I just added some code to include the new /system/priv-app folder found in KitKat.

I know people have got it to work. But the few I looked at simply hijacked /system/app for /system/priv-app. This is fine as well, but they lost the ability to theme /system/app. Just thought I'd share a fully working version with everyone.
