Tab 2 and Swapsd - Galaxy Tab 2 General

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 P3113 with 4.1.1 installed . Rooted it with no problem .Was going to use swapsd on it since i use it on my Samsung exhibit ii 4g . It wouldnt flash on my tab , so i downloaded the apk from jocala .
The apk installed fine , but after a reboot i was getting many errors , unfortunatly , ******* has stopped . Was coming up with at least 15 different programs, display, storage , mtp ...etc
So i did a factory reset , still had the problems . wiped cache and tried a few other things . Started to download a stock rom , and remembered what swapsd actualy did . it modified the file vold.fstab in the /etc dir , luckily it made a backup of the original. I had to go to the play store and download es file explorer ( a horrible program, root explorer is much better ) . Set it up to allow root access and root dir . Went to /etc and deleted vold.fstab and renamed the backup to its original .
I dont know if anyone else has had this problem , but just in case someone uses swapsd and has the same problems, this is the fix for it .
Also , does anyone know if there is a way to use the external sdcard instead of the internal ? Samsung needs to allow us to install to external sdcard .

There is a workarund. Search for an app called FolderMount. It's here, on xda.

You can use this:

Because you are on firmware that is below 4.2
I use folder mount because I'm on a ROM that is 4.2.2, i can say that both work well, but you can use the former to entirely swap your SD. Just follow the instructions and it works well.

Directory Bind not working properly on CM 10.1

hello , i'm about to move my games into external sd card using Directory Bind on my p3110 CM 10.1 . I've followed step by step mentioned to apply binding , and everything went ok without "error message" . but the problem is the data not actually "binded" , when i start the games it keeps asking for download even though i already bind it and it successfully transferred into my extcard . i dont know if it related to the ROM itself but anyone have ideas ?
thanks :good:
use foldermount just search this forum and download it
It's a known fact DB doesn't work on 4.2.x. Since the app has been abandoned for quite a while, look for alternatives.

hey see
go to app prefrences and make sure only three things are checked (bind on boot) and (alert on unbind failure) and (dbt mgmt <am not sure of its name but it is the second last option>) and then:
1) move files manually from sdcard to extsdcard eg: from sdcard/Android/obb/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftM4HM
to /mnt/extsdcard/Android/obb/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftM4HM
** make sure the path is similar each and every file except the diff btw extsdcard and sdcard like if u copy from obb folder create a folder on extsdcard called obb ok
** also after u create similar paths move the data inside the folder u want not the folder itself eg here u shud move what is inside com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftM4HM
2) once moved go to directory bind make a new bind and choose the paths as usual but instead of ticking transfer files dont and just click add
3) then click on the grey icon on the left of the screen to make it green then enjoy!!!!!
plz press thanks if this helped dont just say it

[Q] Help installing clockworkmod (where is /.cust_backup ?)

OK, I have a U8800 (normal, not pro), and have installed the official android 2.3.5.
I have also rooted it (don't know how anymore, I followed the directions in on of the forums).
I would like to try a custom ROM with a new android version (hoping to increase battery life, and have troubles with some apps at the moment anyway). I was thinking about Aurora ICS 4.0.4 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1492957)
However, I don't understand how I can install ClockWorkMod (http://forum.xda-develpers.com/showthread.php?t=1377390).
Specifically, how to find/mount the /.cust_backup
I have ES File Explorer, and made my root visible (so /)
However, there is no subdirectory that starts with a '.'. So I cannot find /.cust_backup
There is a /cust , but does't seem to be it.
Can anyone give me a hint?
Thx,
T
You have to set Es File Explorer to show hidden files. In android, every file/folder whose name starts with a "." is considered an hidden file, that's why it's not showing it.
Root explorer works better in my opinion but its a paid app.

Search root eplorer using 4shared. Install and find cust backup. Easy bro

When I had error 7 I changed out my SD card for a higher class and it worked fine after that. If that doesn't work for you I suggest trying what @Richcar says. If all else fails, try flashing a newer version of CWM or even better flash TWRP.

[Q] Rotation not working + gyroscope calibration missing

Hi there,
i am having problems that i cant use the rotate of the s4 (currently with 4.2.2 dbt)
after a hardreset everything was fine. then i uninstalled some samsung apps which i do not want to have on my device with titanium.
since then the rotate is not working again.
does someone know which of this apps is mandatory in order for the rotation to work.
the suggestion to calibrate doesnt work for me either because this section is missing under my device settings (even after a hardreset).

Your autorotation stop working because you removed Samsunghub and if you have a custom Recovery try and do this mate download and flash this file via recovery.

hey thank you for your quick reply.
wouldnt it be enough to recover samsung hub with titanium. i have made a backup of all that stuff in the pictures before deleting them.
if not, how do i have to add this file in CWM?

If you dont have a customer recovery but your phone is rooted . Extract the file to your pc then copy to ur sdcard Then open root explorer >copy/paste the libnustl_shared.so in system>lib and change permission to rw-r-r then reboot. And if you have a cwm then download the file .and copy to ur sdcard and boot into cwm . And flash away

ok.. cwm did not work for me as well.. the file was still missing though installing the zip via CWM.
but anyway.. i finally was able to copy the file manually after having some problems with es file explorer.
after setting the permission and rebooting i was able to use the autorotate function again. .
thank you a lot for helping me out and not letting me start by scratch again. and also not forcing me to install samsung software on my device.
now the only question left... why am i still missing the gyroscope option under the device settings..?!?! :-/
i have never seen this option on my device at all.

My Files File Manager Missin

My first post being a week old android user after moving from ios so please consider the stupidity i'm about to explain .
The problem i have is with the N900 exynos model with 4.4.2 ( rooted )
Today i installed s5 file manager port for my note 3 According to the instruction ,
I installed it and restarted but saw no change . So i replaced the secmyfiles2.apk file
In system/app and system/priv-app , deleted the secmyfiles2.odex and restarted
And got the warning "UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable." . When i clicked all apps , my files app was missing , not just from the launcher but app manager too . So with hopes to get it back , I WIPED DATA PARTITION and did a full reset . and when the reset was done n i opened my apps , "my files " app was missing , not just from the launcher , from all apps as well . Now that file in system/app has a generic apk icon and " parsing error " message appears when i click it . Also , the s5 file manager apk that i downloaded installed previously but now it ends with an error " App not installed " when i try to install it directly . I cropped the screenshot to shrink the size due to upload limits . Please help me solve the issue . Thanks

I would , but I'm selling it to get N9005 and the buyer excepts all stock apps with root , flashing new firmware is not an option for me
Coz my internet is way too slow . Btw , can the problem be solved if i have N900's original odex and apk from system/app and priv-app folder ? If yes , can anyone please share
cop)y it in priv app and give permissions

1 : no

No luck still now the app icon is showing up in priv-appfolder and i have ticked all permissions but its still not showing in launcher or installed apps . Please dont give up on me
you must boot again.....
Yes , I put the app and odex in system/priv-app and restarted but it had no effect , tried putting it in app folder and restarting too n still the same . I even gave it a full reset to see if I have some luck but the file manager is still missing
I have attached a screen shot of my " about " to see if it helps regarding the
Odex and ask compatibility or similar .
Last solution is flash stock with odin...

any idea why the file manager doesn't install like it used to before the problem occured and now says " app not installed " ?
I send you N9005 files... maybe not compatible with N900......
Yeah I think so too . Any way I can get the N900 files ? Downloading a stock
Fi for n900 will take forever with my Internet . Would be better if I could get the files for test .
