I am currently running Superram 1.5 and am trying to increase the "internal" storage of the phone. I have skewered the forums and I understand this involves increasing the Data.img size beyond the initial 256mb compaction. Using TopoResize I have resized my data.img to 1.9 GB, however, i still had access to only 256 MB. I reinstalled Superram 1.5 and tried again with a fresh data image and also failed.
Can someone point me in the right direction, please?
Is there an XML i am to edit or something so the system recognizes the change?
App2SD just isn't cuttin it.
Much thanks to anyone who can help.
Well once the data img is used I don't think you can simply just enlarge it, it has never worked for me that way.. The only solution I can think of, is for you to get a new data image, a bigger one than the one you currently use, and restart your rom with that data img. You can find lots of Build threads with blank data images in them, eg. JDMS/MDJ. If you want to back up stuff, use titanium backup from the market.
data image resizing
Firstly, that should read "scoured" lol -not skewered. And "compaction" should read capacity. Sorry, was trying out swype with XDA App.
Now, more impotently. When you say "restart your rom," you mean to just substitute one image file for another in windows and restart superRAM, correct?
I will not have to reinstall SuperRAM 1.5?
Also, since superram runs off the RAM of the device, will using a image file from a different build cause a problem?
Finally, has anyone out there increased there Image file in size via TopoResize and had success? Was it before the initial launch of your android build or after?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks all

I big to differ. It can be increased. I used to do that during my android SD days.
@OP, you haven't scoured "a lot" yet. Search for datai.img maker, it can resize and create data.img.

Issue resolved
Issue resolved.
In the interests of others who may encounter this problem, here is the solution.
Simply get titanium backup and back up all your apps and info, then find a 2GB image from another build and substituted the old image file (data.img) with the new image file (renaming in appropriately) and used titanium backup to restore mostly everything. Titanium backup does a very good job restoring, even Astrid tasks returned, yay.
I originally didn't what to attempt this because SuperRAM is a unique build in the way it runs but there seems to be no issue.
One thing did come up, however.
I attempted to use a 4GB image as a replacement at first and that did not work.
Something about it being too large.
I read someplace that android has a difficulty with image files larger then 2 GB, can someone confirm?
Resize
@Jose - I have tried using toporesize, It seems to increase the size of the data.img but only allow me to use the original 256MB. End result is ineffective.

Easy enough mistake to make, but toporesize is data.img maker. To OP (and for posterity's sake), I don't know if you tried it but if you tried making a new data.img using toporesize/data.img maker, you "should" have achieved about the same effect. Glad you got this solved though.
Hey Guys. How are you toady?
I come here with new problems! Probably this thread is solved but i got problem with Toporesize.
Anyway I solved why my Android crash all the time! Was the sd and now I installed few games but I will be glad to install Chainfire also but no way to go true because I do not have storage enough.
I try to use toposize to resize my data.img (inside i have many app and I did a backup) but I got this error, see pic.
If I make the fresh data.img no problem, but the Android do not turn on with "new" data.img, i looking just to resize mine without compromise it.
someone know how to do it?
I was wondering if anyone is interested in beta testing this app. It will scan for all usb drives attached and give you a list to mount or unmount. It supports ext2, ext3, ext4, fat32 and ntfs.
The app will support up to 50 devices, i'm not sure how many the tablet can handle though.
* Requires root and busybox.
EDIT: APK updated on May 29, 2011 12:39 PM CST (v1.1 beta 2)
EDIT: APK updated on Jun 2, 2011 07:54 PM CST (v1.1 RC1)

...just installed it, started it...then it crashes....
@GeneralSmart. I just updated a new apk to the OP, please try it and see if works.
Once HC3.1 comes around, it should auto-detect plug/unplug and I can do an auto-mount option. Also thinking about adding an option to mount to the drive label instead of device id. (ie. /mnt/MyDrive instead of /mnt/sda1).
This may work on other devices too (Xoom, Asus), but I don't have any to test. I wonder if i can root a xoom at bestbuy.. lol
Works now...thank you for your work! (could been my fault cause i had no busybox installed, sry)
schweet.................
B'dazz man. Imma start using this to change some files in the system partition. THANKS MAN!
OK, when I connect a 16GB thumb drive it is detected
/dev/block/sda1 (/mnt/usbOTG) Type: fat32 Size: 14.9G Label: B041-B354
When I tried my 250G Passport it doesn't recognize it. My Xoom hasn't been able to recognize it at all.
Also, when the thumb drive was connected, I selected unmount all (in order to safely remove it) and it temporarily messed something up in my file system. i had lines overwritten in ES File Explorer saying "SD card is not mounted" but my external sdcard was still mounted.
Anyway, that's the extent of my beta testing so far. I don't know if my explanation was clear, so ask any questions, and I'll try to answer. I would like some way of mounting the Passport, if possible.

When it picked it up, was it already mounted? Or did you have to click mount and this you got the line above? That looks like an Android auto-mount and you should have still had a "Mount" button next to it. Clicking it should have changed the mount point to /mnt/sda1 (or something like it). Where then it would be mounted on both paths (at least that's how it works on acer). Then unmounting should change it back to (/mnt/usbOTG), which can't be manually unmounted for some reason (again, that's how it works on Acer).

Can you check if the drive type is Basic or Dynamic in the windows drive manager (see screenshot http://screencast.com/t/EZwRgotf)
I havn't tested a Dynamic drive, so not sure if Android has the drivers to handle it. If it's Basic, then something else is going on.

Did it mess up the filesystem on the USB drive? like currupt files or the FAT? It sounds like ES File Explorer may have just freaked out because an mount dissappeared that it was currently browsing. I'll download ES File Explorer and play with it and see if I can duplicate the results here.
Thanks!

For the brief time that I had the Asus TF... it auto detect the USB/MicroUSB...etc plus when you click ( lower right )...it also gave the option to unmount too.
Thanks for this app... I've been wondering why we do not have the unmount option with our A500... seems pulling a usb device out without unmounting first is a recipe for corrupted files and defect device at a later point in time...etc
Works great for me, first try. Pretty frickin' sweet. Good work, sir!
i guess im the first to try multiple devices on here? it works great, sees all devices attached. great work! now my hub can go with me and my tablet when im on the go
Works fine in my Iconia, but needs to install BusyBox older version of 1.18.0.
Crash about 30% of time.

ok thanks for yr reply i have 180mb partition this was enough for the last update though? i'm going to wipe data and go for 190mb see if this makes a difference! the only thing about making the partition bigger is don't you get less space for apps?

you need at least 190 mb for the system.
data partition is smaller then, right.
but a tip : install the update in 190 mb , get a root explorer of your choice and delete /system/app/appyoudon'tneed.apk
or titanium backup / root uninstaller etc.
you can delete /system/media/bootanimation.zip and system/media/audio/ui/bootsound
also tts folder if you don't need it.
do a backup , resize the system again ( check with root explorer / titanium how much is free , eg 40 mb free) -> 150 mb partition
restore the backup.

Just trying to work my way through GMPOWER's tutorial on rooting the Nook Color.
I have some REALLY basic questions that are probably covered in the instructions, but if it's NEW, which it is for anyone reading here...it's confusing:
For example,
1. What is meant by the bold, red warning........"You must do a complete wipe before installing this package." Does "wipe" mean FORMAT? If yes......format what? The NOOK? The SD card? Both?
2. In the video included in the tutorial, there's reference to an unZIPing program being required to 'uncork' the downloaded files. The narrator says to right click and unzip the files. (When I right click on my zipped files, the only command I see that MIGHT an unzip function is "Extract all". Is that an unzip program?)
3. The most 'complicated' process of all, (to me, anyway) the selecting of the files and unzipping them and "flashing" them (is that just another word for copying or installing?) is passed over so quickly and with the camera so far away from the screen in the video....it's very difficult to see and understand exactly what is happening. For example, at exactly 4:06 into the video, the narrator says to right click on the CWM file.....at which point, it looks like he actually LEFT clicks it and it opens to show TWO files.....and he then RIGHT clicks on one of them, but doesn't say what it's name is or what it should do.
Sorry to sound like a whiney noob......but, remember, only noobs are watching this; otherwise we wouldn't be watching it!
Can someone please elaborate on the click here.....now do this......then do that.......then you will see this......and now you have to do these? I'm sure I speak for more people than just myself when I ask this.
Thanks very much for any help.

I'm running CM10 and have not seen the video you speak of... But I think I can help with some of what you're looking for.
1. Wipe and format are often used synonymously. For example wiping your system or data partition on your device is the same as formatting. If the video is talking about the SD card, the same philosophy applies. A formatted card is ideal before starting.
2. Again, unzip and extract are somewhat synonymous. What program they are likely referring to is 7zip. It's a powerful compression and decompression utility.
3. Flashing describes the process of installing a package(ROM, zip, etc...) from one media(SD in this case) and installing it to a normally read only media (the Nook's internal drive. Including the system and data partitions of the disk) This is usually done through a recovery program that starts up instead of the normal OS. In most cases it is Clockwork Mod recovery (CWM) or something very much like it.
Like I said, I haven't seem the video and never went the manual nooter route. I totally wiped stock nook and went the CyanogenMod route. So I can't comment on the video's vagueness in this case. Maybe another member has some insight on this.

Yes, that means you have windows explorer looking at the drive. That locks it so it cannot be written to. Close windows explorer and try again.

Thanks very much for the suggestion, leapinlar,.....but I'm still getting the Lock error even after making sure ALL windows of Explorer are closed (especially any for the SD drive).
Dumb question: I don't think either the text from GMPOWER or the video ever state WHERE the win32 diskimager and/or the clockwork-3.2.0.1 should be residing when these operations are taking place. I would ASSUME they're all supposed to be on the SD card....but I've been wrong before when assuming!!
Also, when I first tried this, I noticed I had downloaded (and possibly extracted) the win32diskimager-source.zip (SOURCE) version as opposed to the BINARY version. Should I start over? With a cleanly formatted SD? (my formatting took a long, long time when I initially did it.......not using the Quick method, as I think I saw advised somewhere.)
Thoughts? Thanks!
EDIT: Actually, I think I just answered PART of my question: when I tried it again (after formatting the SD and putting ALL three zipped files on the card) I got a new/different error:
"Image file cannot be located on the requested device." So, I guess that means that at least the "eyeballer" image file CANNOT be sitting on the SD card while you attempt to "write" it there. Yes? No?
Therefore....by the same token....is it safe/possible to run the Win32DiskImager from the SD card.....or should it ALSO be located somewhere else during this process??
ANOTHER EDIT: Tried removing the image file from the SD card, then running DiskImage and selecting the image file that I'd downloaded and unzipped to my hard drive. STILL got the "lock error". Getting frustrated. Most grateful for any suggestions/help. Please and Thanks
You definitely need the img file on your PC before you try to burn. Having it on SD and putting that location in the image box will definitely lock the card. Try again with nothing on the card and no other program running.

You apparently have a lot of B&N stuff (apps, games, etc) installed (1.7 GB worth), but 3.35 GB should be plenty for installing more apps through Play Store. I don't know what your issue is.
Edit: You do not say, but I am assuming you meant downloading apps with Play Store. If you meant downloading some other way, like a browser, you need an sdcard to do that and you have not said how much room your SD card has.

OK....good feedback....THANKS!
1. Yes, I mean to download using Play Store (which currently is labeled MARKET. Presumably it'll update itself and change its name to GOOGLE PLAY when we get the storage problem solved.......will it?
2. I have next to no previous apps or media (maybe 4 apps and 4 books and 3 magazines) downloaded to the NC......but, perhaps it doesn't take much to fill this puppy?
3. I don't even have an SD card in it at this point. I removed the one I used to do the rooting because it booted to it when I started up the Nook this AM........and I assumed that was a bad thing.....or, at least unnecessary.
Should I erase the "rooting SD card"........or "keep it in a safe place" and use a new one for downloading/storing apps and media?
Thanks,
Mike

1. It should have changed itself immediately. That may be indicative of the problem.
2. Are any of the books kids interactive books? They take a lot of space.
3. If you did not make a backup with the CWM card, and you don't plan to restore the backup in the future, then reformat the card to use as a normal SD. But I recommend you do the backup and keep the card as CWM. Then get a new one.

1. Hmmmm. Hope THAT'S not a disaster. "Market" opens Ok and I can see hundreds (maybe thousands) of apps. But, I've used the search utility and searched for "Google Play".........."Google"..........and even "Market"........and no Google Play comes up in the search results. Shouldn't it?
2. No kids in the familly; no 'interactive' stuff of any kind that I know of....a couple of novels, couple of magazines.....sodoku, Evernote, YouTube, calculator, a little drum machine, flashlight.......mirror......holy crap, looks like wifey's been active after all!!
3. I DIDN'T make a backup with (of ?) the CWM card. Back up of what, exactly......the old disk image (operating system? Pardon my noobiness). Is it too late to make any required copies/backup? I just now copied the contents of the "rooting SD card" into a folder on my laptop's hard drive.......but I'm not sure if that's what you're talking about.

1. That may be the problem. It should update itself, but is not critical. The older versions of market temporarily stored their downloads on a separate partition named cache. That may be full from earlier downloads. Boot to CWM and there is an option to wipe cache. Do that. Then try to use market again.
3. The CWM card is capable of making what is called a nandroid backup. It backs up your entire operating system to SD so that if in making future mods, you make a mistake, you can restore your operating system to the way it was before you started making mods. It is too late to do that for you, but you can still backup what you have now.

I'll give that a try......booting with CWM and wiping the cache. (Out of town on family 'duties' and left the nook at home but will report back on Monday sometime.)
Thanks for "babysitting" me, buddy! Appreciate it. Have a great weekend. Later, Mike.
Hello again
Yesterday i had an accident with my phone...
i used the ultimate cleaning script flying around here and this formated everything... incliding my system and backups
after long hours of trying around i managed to exptract the system.img image and the userdata.img from the factory image and pushed it to my phone
i could boot again and used a backup lying on my hdd to get back to a working system
today now i was shocked when i wanted to get music on my phone again
i recognized that there are only 5,6 gig of space availabe on my phone :crying:
must havbe something to do with this stupid cleaning script... seems to have repartitioned my phone (i have a 16gig one)
could someone tell me how to get my storage back ?
thanks in advance

Also don't use scripts floating around that will wipe device. A script similar to that was required for the s2 hercules as there were some issues with the recovery not wiping certain partitions. The nexus 4 doesn't have any issues afaik so learn about partitions and wipe them as needed from recovery manually.
All along i keep saying not to use superwipes and stuff like that. There is a recovery for that!!!
