What we need to compile it ?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
Perhaps you should include some information as to what it is.
But let me do that for you, for once.
In short, this module would allow mounting of samba shares, to, for instance, play media from your network onto your phone.
yes please.....

This module for mounting Samba (Windows) shares from your Android phone.
1. Need Root
2. Unzip cifs.zip and put files from it in "/system/lib/modules" (by Root Explorer)
3. Install Cifs Manager from market
4. In Cifs Manager set path to your windows share, login and pass for it
5. Mount and use for play video or music without copying files to smartphone

Can you help with modules nls_cp1251.ko, nls_koi8-r.ko and nls_koi8-ru.ko too ?
ok, the modules are in the attached rar.
you can try grabbing the modules from here "htp://arago-project.org/files/releases/2009.09/ipk/beagleboard/"
and then edit the version string with a hex editor like xvi32.

utf8 support?
Anyone know if it support UTF8? I thought it does or maybe I am doing something wrong.
nls_utf8.ko loaded ok, mounting Win XP folders OK,
but I can't see Chinese characters
I am on stock 2.51 ROM
Thanks
I found it out after hours of searching, here it is for people who need to have International Characters support (UTF8)
In Cifs Manager, add share ----> option, you have to put in "iocharset=utf8"
It works well now.
Hello,
I would like to use cifsmanager apps but I see that our kernel doesn't have the proper module built in.
I just updated the kernel and modules using the latest available in the the kernel build service (following the incremental updates guide):
http://xdandroid.com/wiki/Incremental_Updates
but I'm not able to insmod the module.
I also tried to manually download the cifs.ko module and to load it telling to cifsmanager app where the module is, but I continue to receive the same error, no such device, like if the module isn't loaded correctly.
How can I solve this problem?
Thank you
Why not just use adb...? I don't see the need for CIFS.
If you can figure out how to get CIFS working, we can look about implementing it mainline.
Have you tried insmodding it after cp'ing the .ko file to /lib/modules?
ok thank you,
I tried to load the module using adb, but I think I'm using a wrong file because when I try to load it insmod return me the "invalid module format" output.
I'm using the kernel downloaded here:
http://zimages.googlecode.com/files/htc-msm-linux-20110914_084441-package.tar.bz2
somebody can tell me if is there a module that I can use with this kernel?
thank you

Make use of that "recognized developer" insignia you throw around there and commit something . (Or at least post something to the ML!!)
still doesn't work, shows the same message when insmod or insmod -f
btw, the kernel is modules-2.6.27.46-01356-gd4c73bd.tar.gz, maybe you should build a complete one? (well, i have never played with linux kernel...)

I think people just want the module available in the 'modules`uname-r`.tar.gz' file. That way they at least have the option of insmodding it...(*.user.conf etc) who knows what they want to do with it afterwards - I guess access their phone on a LAN from their PC?
just want to mount my share folder from my PC to Android, so that i can use the shared files online without copy-paste (it'll be quite annoying by copy-paste, especially when you want to edit file, because you must upload it after editing)

The fixed patch has been sent to Mailing List,now let's see if it gets approved..
#compiled new cifs.ko, md4.ko, nls_utf8.ko for the new
IMM76I build
kernel number
3.0.8-gda6252b
attachment "cifs_gda6252b.zip"
------------------------------------------------------------------
hi there, i have compiled modules for CIFS to work on the stock 4.0.4 kernel.
kernel number must match "3.0.8-g034fec9"
in the attached zip,
here are the list of files.
cifs.ko
md4.ko
#above 2 are required to have it work
#here are native language support.
nls_utf8.ko
nls_cp932.ko
nls_cp936.ko
nls_cp950.ko
#above cp9xx are support for chinese characters.
nls_euc-jp.ko
#above is support for japanese letters.
thank you.
additional notes.
apparently you do not need any other native language support apart from utf8
the trick is, during the mounting process, you will need to specify the "iocharset=utf8" under options.
eg
"mount //192.168.15.123/a /home/b/c -t cifs -o username=d,password=e,uid=f,gid=g,iocharset=utf8"
for cifs manager, just put "iocharset=utf8" under the Options, and you should be able to see all different charsets.
do remember you will need to load the nls_utf8.ko
once you have the module install,
you can use cifs manager to manage your mounts.
(you can also set cifs manager to load this module for you).
Thanks, I'll give it a try later today.

make sure that you have the correct stock kernel.
must match "3.0.8-g034fec9" else insmod will fail.
if anyone of you are running other version of kernel, i can try compile if for you as well, but let me know your kernel version.

Common Internet File System, is another name for SMB (Server Message Block) also known as Samba. It's most commonly used in Microsoft Windows networks for providing shared network access to files, printers and other services.
These modules allows you to mount a shared directory from your windows computer, on your phone.
I use it to watch movies and play Mp3 on my phone, which is stored on my (windows) media server.

this is the shared library cifs manager is complaining about.
hence you need to download and insmod it.

cifs help
Hi,
hoping you can help me out. i have an android tv box that id love to get cifs running on so i can use mount manager and download direct to my nas disk. could you possibly compile these modules for the following kernel???
$ cat /proc/versionLinux version 3.0.8 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.5.1 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2010.09-50)
) #8 PREEMPT Wed Sep 12 11:07:28 CST 2012
[email protected]:/ $
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
update, it's been a while and while I'm back, I noticed cifs and md4 are not available for the rom I'm currently running... so updated modules are below
Definitely not a developer. But I like to tinker and mod. Since I updated to JB I haven't been able to find cifs.ko or md4.ko
So I decided to compile them myself.
Hope this helps somebody. I'll try to keep these up to date as new kernel's become available.
cifs.ko & md4.ko when loaded allow cifs (aka samba, windows) network shares to be mounted and viewable as local media
Root is required
I recommend coping the files to /system/lib/modules
Modules can be loaded from cmd line
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/md4.ko
These can also be used by cifs manager which is available in the app store
just tell the app where you have stored the files on your device

Hi there,
I noticed noone seems to have ever bothered building cifs.ko (the Kernel module necessary to access Windows Shares) for
the Galaxy Note 10.1
So I build one. Actually it's two modules md4.ko and cifs.ko (md4.ko has to be loaded first).
I have successfully tested the module on my EU N8000 running XXALGA with CIFSmanager. Streaming a 720p mkv with
MXPlayer just works really nice.

if you break or damage your device while installing and/or using the modules. I am also not going to explain the steps necessary to actually
use the module. You should already know how to do it...or at least be smart enough to find out what to do
Enjoy!

Sounds like a very helpful piece of code.

Could you build a kernel including this modules for flashing via CWM so anybody can use it?

To compile you need the android ndk prebuilt environment. I followed the this howto: http://source.android.com/source/building-kernels.html (from Downloading a prebuilt gcc downwards).
Then you need your kernel sources (look at the android dev section here). In the package is a README_Kernel where you can get the make command to build the default config. From there on you just run make menuconfig and make to compile things.
