*REQUEST* Firerat's Custom MTD Partitions (resize Data,System and Cache)

can any dev. make this happen for our EVO 4G please? I included a link to the thread were the mod is. This mod enables a person to decide how big the partitions in their phone should be. (ei system, data, cache, etc). Its awesome but I just have it on my hero which i gave to my brother and it wouldn't hurt that everyone could have more space for apps on their phone.
Thanks everyone!!!

Ok, I think I see the problem
Not at home right now,
But in the mean time you should be able to flash the remove zip and return to stock
Looks like a copy paste fail and I'm excluding userdata what I shouldn't be
May also be escaping when I shouldn't be
If you have problems flashing the remove zip you can mount cache manually via adb shell
( you can also flash_image a standard recovery.img via adb shell )

Thanks. Just reflashed recovery and restore the nandroid and everything is fine. I am glad there is no permanent damage done. Cannot wait for the working version!

changed the 'remove' option
to revert to the stock MTD layout set system size to 0 in mtdpartmap.txt and flash the recovery patcher
e.g.

Great! now the recovery error is gone and the mod is working on my EVO, beautifully. More than 600M for /data. Thank you so much, Firerat. You're the best!
Code:

PS. It seems /cache and /data now share the same space. It is new to me. Does that mean there is only one size need to specify in mtdpartmap.txt?

you still need to specify size of cache , the minimum is 2mb
on your phone /cache is actually a bind mount of /data/cache
its there if anything needs to use it, for instance your rom may want to put dalvik-cache in /cache/dalvik-cache
it will actually be on /data, the advantage is that you can make better use of what was free space on /cache

That's indeed a nice advantage. A million thanks. Now I can throw everything in the phone storage without worrying about the space.

How do I flash this? It doesn't show up in the list of zip files in recovery. I tried renaming it and extracting it but it doesn't look like it's in a flashable format.

i think you just need to rename the file's extension to xxxxx.zip (because .zip's are the one you flash in recovery), but then again I have not used that file. So not responsible for damages or anything. Try it at your own risk buddy.

FR-AutoMTD_partitionPatcher , is linux shell script to shoehorn the boot patcher into a rom zip ( so the end user dosn't need to flash the boot patcher , its automagic ) ,, you don't really need it
to get back to stock layout,
do the mtd 0 thing
nand backup
flash the recovery patcher
format system cache and data ( I recommend clockwork recovery )
reboot
nand restore ( providing the backup will fit stock ! )
flash boot patcher
your done
Note, v1.5.7b is newer

Had this working well on my Hero, so I'm looking forward to putting this on my new Evo as well!

[Q] {URGENT} SDCard won't mount or format!

Hello, this is my first post but been seeing lot of threads here with lot of help, so I thank you all before you start helping me.
I have my HTC One X, tried to update to Jelly Bean using Dragon's ROM, all went fine but the phone got stuck on HTC logo.
Since that I can only start on recovery (ClockWork Mod 5.8.4.0), HBOOT (0.94) or fastboot.
There is no way I can access the SDCard from recovery to flash the rom.
I tried factory reset with no luck, wipe cache, wipe data.../factory reset. all with no luck! Every time I try to format my sdcard it says:
"Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure..."
"Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!"
"Skipping format..."
If I try with "mounts and storage" then "format sdcard":
"Formatting sdcard..."
"Error mounting /sdcard!"
I must say that I can use "Mount USB storage", did format with FAT32 on Windows & Mac, no luck. Also tried using parted with adb shell, formatting on ext2, but no luck.
Here is my "recovery.fstab":
~ # cat /etc/recovery.fstab
# mount point fstype device [device2]
# /recovery emmc recovery
# /boot emmc boot
# /system ext4 system
# /cache ext4 cache
# /misc emmc misc
# /sdcard vfat /dev/block/sda1 /dev/block/sda
# /internal_sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p14
# /data ext4 userdata
# /devlog ext4 devlog
/recovery emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p5
/boot emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p4
/cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p13
/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p15
/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p14
/system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
/misc emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p17
------------
And here my fstab:
~ # cat /etc/fstab
/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 /cache ext4 rw
/dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /data ext4 rw
/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system ext4 rw
/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 /sdcard vfat rw
---------------
There is no way that ClockWork Mod can read my internal card for installing any zip. Any help would be really appreciated, even I would pay if necessary.
Thanks in advance for all the great work you guys do, and hope to get my phone back working!

If you mean the skydragon rom, ypu have to update hboot to use it.
And for the mounting problems... Try reflashing recovery.
I saw "fastboot oem format" somewhere and I aint sure what it does, but it might be worth a try.

Someone could please tell me how do I restore my phone as it came?
I have downloaded a RUU, my version main is: version-main: 1.28.161.9
When I click the RUU it does nothing, someone please help?
Thanks.

You have to relock bootloader first: fastboot oem lock.
Then run RUU with admin rights.

I have fixed my phone running the correct RUU.
Right now I am using Android Revolution HD 9.8. How can I update my HBOOT to run Android Revolution HD 18.0?
Best regards.

Two choices: Use a JB RUU or flash the correct firmware for your cid.

[Q] After restart doesnt start

Hi,
About a month I used rom AR and I was aware of her faults (which yesterday revealed that it is not true), that when I restart, phone must be connected to the pc, and start bootloader via fastboot and the Command Promt flash boot.img dissected from ROM. Fortunately ROM, stable, so I followed all the time does not restart.
Yesterday I got a taste for change (and I wanted to get rid of the problem) and I downladed at first 4.4 ROM from xda taktik then 4.3JB and finally cyangen mod 7.2 Problem unfortunately stayed at all the same. When restarting HTC logo flashes and then turns off the display and starts "black" will flash this is over, unless we do the above procedure via the bootloader.
Does anyone an idea how to fix it?
Thnx

Have you format system + data + cache in mount and storage after wipe data cache and dalvik cache? Try this, if not success I think the only way is download the latest ruu and run it. You will be go back to stock. And we can use tools to root and flash custom recovery.

@Pilsner12 what the state of your phone bootloader..?, is that just unlocked with s-on..?, or already s-off..?, and what a custom recovery you used..?
if your phone is just unlocked with still s-on...did you already flashing a boot.img from the rom.zip that you already installed..?

to JJeamy:
bootloader is s-on, with touched clockworkmod 5.8.1.5, ROM cyanogen mod 7.2
if I standartly restart phone, didnt start. I must connect phone to pc, run bootloader, than fastboot and from pc via command prompt "send" boot.img (prepared from cm7.2) than phone restart and start correctly.
to pauleversham:
I will try it again (but I thing everythning expect SD card was formated, wiped, etc..) If I run RUU rom, I lost root permision, or is it possible get rooted RUU?

so...you mean that you've already/ always flashing boot.img from the rom.zip itself after installing the rom from recovery...and that's mean your phone already can booting normally..right...?, so where's the problem exactly..?
anyway..if the problem you asked is...why you must always do a flashing boot.img manually after installing any new custom rom to boot normally is bacause you're still had s-on flag on your bootloader..that's why bootloader can't give permission to a custom recovery for flashing boot partition..
if you wanna running RUU...then you should be relocked your bootloader first..and that's mean your will return to the stock..so to rooting it again...you must unlocking your bootloader again..

Everytime, when I flash new rom, I have to flash boot.img. I know that. But problem is when I only restart phone, I need to flash boot.img otherwise phone doesnt start.
Today I find out:
- in clockworkmod I try to make a backup. Everything went great (back up boot image, recovery, system, data, android secure, cache) , but at the end I got a message: "No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext."
Before AR rom I had many other roms and backing up and restarting without flashing wors fine.
The last hint which you give me is my last solution. I wouldnt lose my root privileges. I had a lot of trouble to get it..

maybe you can try it to installing and using a different custom recovery..like 4ext or twrp..

I would like to try use another custom recovery, but how I can Unistall cwm ? I didnt find any manual..

you don't need to uninstall it..just flashing a new one (like twrp or 4ext) through fastboot..then cwm will be replaced with that..

Are you booting the boot.img or flashing it? Also, recoveries are not zips, they are imgs.

This is a link for 4ext touch recovery here.., extract this zip file first to get recovery.img file
This is a link for TWRP touch recovery here..
just flash this recovery.img file through fastboot.. "fastboot flash recovery the_name_of_recovery.img"

that's weird thing..i think there's something wrong with your phone partition..
maybe you wanna try it to return your phone to the stock first by running a RUU..to fix that problem...after that
you can tried to fully rooting again for gaining s-off using AAHK2 script by Phiber2000 from here..

Miroslav's CM11 flashing methods

Hello friends,
I have tried to flash every update of the Miroslav's rom unsuccessfuly. These are the metods I have tried:
SWETNES METHOD: ...Format system partition FIRST then flash ROM, then format cache, then do a FACTORY RESET (format data). First boot takes almost 10 min so be patient...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
NOTZIPPY METHOD: ...After flash and reboot my phone did not get past the cm logo, I noticed a lot of errors in logcat , so I reboot into recovery and formatted cache and rebooted again, them ROM booted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
MR.201 METHOD: ...factory reset then just flash the rc1 rom. gaaps is not needed as miroslav already added light gaaps...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
_CRASS_ METHOD:
As for installing here is exactly what I did:
1) soft reboot to recovery
2) backuped everything through clockwork recovery
3) cleared cache
4) cleared dalvic
5) factory reset
6) install miroslav rom
7) rebooted...it got stuck on the CM logo
8) After about 10 minutes of no go I pulled battery
9) booted to clockwork recovery
10) factory reset
11) installed miroslav rom
12) installed latest kitkat gapps from CM website
13) rebooted
14) after 3-4 minutes I was in the pin screen of CM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
LILOWEK METHOD: ...There was no rhyme or reason of why it installed. I simply installed it with gapps. No go. Format, clear all cache, install with gapps. Still the same. Did it again, and this time it went through. It booted in about 3 minutes. I suggest if you are having problems installing it to boot to just do it over and over as it will likely take at some point...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
_CRASS_ METHOD ON RC2:
Installed it today.
Wiped factory data.
Wiped cache
Wiped dalvic
installed miroslav rom
installed gapps
and it booted right away.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
REALYPSSD METHOD:
It took 2 tries:
Wiped System
Wiped factory data.
Wiped cache
Wiped dalvic
installed miroslav rom
installed gapps
Doing that didn't work, waited 15-20 minutes, was stuck at the CM logo.
Then I tried without flashing GAPPS, and it worked. I flashed GAPPS after I'd initially booted up once.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After I tried all these methods, I only softbricked the phone and had to unbrick it. I have a LG NITRO HD P930 and I use Philz Touch 6.19.3. SWETNES user suggest to use CWM 6.0.1.5 because he says CWM 6.0.4.5 has a lot of bugs, and MIROSLAV says he uses CWM 6.0.4.8 (I can't find it)
Also I want to know if in case I flash it successfuly, the rom MUST boot inmediatly first to LG logo then to CM logo or I have to wait watching the LG logo booting over and over for some minutes??
Any comments, suggestions?
Thank you guys.

I am having the same issue as OP

You did not try my suggestion Try flashing the rom then the gapps with adb sideload after wiping everything.

i use philztouch cwm and have had no problem flashing 4.3/4.4 roms with it. i also rooted my n what not when it was on ICS. i think the option in developer section to update cwm wich gave me the newest 6.0.4.8 i think but have been using philztouch till now.
Ive only wiped everything and flashed rom with no problems so far

Thank you for your comments.

Yeah, I noticed your method but I am kinda stupid and realy dont get clear the steps. I found this guide to flash via sideload and I wonder if it will work with philz touch:

Maybe you got the same case as I am. Try to use CWM touch 6.0.1.5 . Then factory reset, format /system , then flash the rom. Loading might take several minute(mine was 10 min) then it will boot up properly. I already use philztouch,cwm 6.0.4.5,latest twrp but all of them not working for me in flashing this rom.
Here, I include the attachment for cwm touch 6.0.1.5 in case you're wondering where you want to find it.put it in the root of your sd card.
Then just run adb . Next, run the following command in the adb cmd :
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
Best of luck, not all guide work for many people and devices

I wonder if this has to do with the way the phones r "unbricked" ? But personally yes I say latest philztouch. Worked great for me. I have latest cwm installed right now 6.0.4.9 & I can't backup so I'll be going back to philztouch.

Another try
I would try hereric's unbricking guide.
Start on step 9, and instead of flashing the provided KDZ use the v10i , download it at lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=17
Good luck

Well, I have used the latest philz and it has not worked for me so I will try using CWM 6.0.1.5. And well, it is very complicated to me that stuff about the unbricking because of the "baseband" and other things I dont understand and everybody mentions. I am beginning to believe that it HAS to be flashed over an specific baseband, or am I getting it wrong?

I will try with this CWM 6.0.1.5. Thank you very much for the download So, with this method I can flash the RC3 directly? the 10 minutes you mention are with the LG Logo screen booting up over and over?

The link you provide mention a P936 and mine is a P930. If I install this, will the phone work allright? As I was saying to xxAirwickxx, is it necesary to install this previously to flash the miroslav's rom???
Thank to every one for helping me to get a stable rom in my phone. I really apreciate it. :good:

It's not necessary, but the KDZ provided is not the most recent build of the GB, the v10i is most recent.
There's no problema flashing it, there is the p930, the p935 and the p936 which are all variants of the same phone, 930 is for america 935 for canada and 936 for europe i believe.
I couldn't install SphinX , always got bootloop or it booted but some system apps like phone didn't start...
Try that and you will probably succed
also , i use PhillZ and i have no problema :laugh:

In order to flash via sideload, I use this guide very easy once you install everything (android sdk and components)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2318497

I tried hard and failed miserably
Well, its been a while since I started this thread. I tried the adb sideload, tried the CWM 6.0.1.5, tried a clean flash (factory reset, format system), waited boot loops for over 30 minutes and nothing. I did not flash KDZ v10i because that process has been always a pain to me. I will get back to CM 10.1.3 + Wind kernel + adreno drivers (the most stable configuration I know) and wait and see if miroslav fix this issue.
Thank you all for your time.

Yeah,I have tried all this methods but no luck......Just got the LG logo bootloop everytime!!(btw,my phone is su640)

I think people have changed there partition sizes in the past that is why the rom is failing to flash - here is mine and I can flash it

Encrypted Device - Can't wipe 'data'

Well, I decided to flash my phone and forgot that it was encrypted.
Went to TWRP, and wiped everything that it could, but it was stuck in '/data'. This means that my phone got pretty much reseted but the 'data' partition didn't.
The problem now is that I cannot install any ROM. I tried a lot of methods to remove the encryption and some worked, for example:
mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p19
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This meant that I could restart TWRP without having to put the PIN to decrypt it. But still, It kept failing on me, when trying to install a new rom, with the error:
unable to wipe 'data' -- unknown filesystem 'auto'
unable to format to remove encryption
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have no idea of what to do. I tried with DD also, to rewrite the blocks, but it just brought my encryption back.
Can anyone please help me ?
