[Q] SGS2 repair vfat sdcard filesystem topic

Hi,
Couple days ago something strange happened to my sgs2. I had about 300 pictures in internal /storage/sdcard0/DCIM/Camera/ and now i cannot access it. File structure looks ok but i cannot make any operation on pictures (open, copy, move) because i got following error:

Code:

---

/system/bin/sh: cat: 20141203_152954.mp4: I/O error

---

When i run dmesg then i see multiple lines as follow:

Code:

---

<6>[  107.195656] mmcblk0p11: rw=0, want=8631652, limit=8626176
<6>[  107.195687] attempt to access beyond end of device
<6>[  107.195712] mmcblk0p11: rw=0, want=8631596, limit=8626176
<6>[  107.207911] attempt to access beyond end of device
<6>[  107.207941] mmcblk0p11: rw=0, want=8631596, limit=8626176
<6>[  107.210995] attempt to access beyond end of device

---

I copied whole mmcblk0p11 using dd and tried to restore images using scalnel, magicrescue, recoverjpeg but I got just some old pictures, not this which I want to restore. I also mounted this image and tryied to restore from it using other tools but this also failed. After all I opened one of image file in hex editor and it looks that about first 500B is filled with something but rest of file is filled with zeros...

I also i runned fsck_msdos from rocovery mode without success.

On the internet i found that "attempt to access beyond end of device" mean that file system is destroyed and i have to resize partition to repair it.

And now i stuck because I have no idea how to do it in proper way (to not lost my data).
If anyone can describe guide step by step how to repair it, it will be great :)

I am using offical samsung rom on gt-i9100, android 4.1.2, kernel 3.0.31, I9100XXMS7

[Q] Problems with SD-Card and with CWM topic

Hello friends of XDA,

First, Merry Christmass to all of you!

I have problems with my internal sd card and with cwm after updating from Insertcoin 4.4.2 Sense to 5.0.1 GPE from Santod. Files which I've used for the update can not be deleted. I can delete them with a file manager or with my laptop but they keep coming back.

Also, i can't find backups made with cwm. They do however are stored, as I can see that after backupping my sd card is smaller at free space.

Any clues?

Thanks in advance

Sdcard - ntfs - twrp topic

First off happy holidays to all. <br />
Had a sdcard question. <br />
<br />
I was trying to copy a movie to my sdcard and it was telling me it was too large of a file (4.2gb). So I reformatted it to ntfs bc I remembered there is no limit for in that storage format. <br />
<br />
Now I can't view my sdcard in twrp any longer? Is that the reason? Does it need to be formatted back to fat32?<br/>

[Q] Swapping SDcard from external to internal gone wrong. topic

I have a rooted and unlocked C2104. I tried swapping external and internal and ended up changing mount points that is my phone now recognizes my microsd card as internal. Now since the microsd card does not have bootloader and other nand files, it does not recognize it when i use power button. I find only 2 solutions throught internet:
1: To replace the motherboard.
2. To make sdcard as internal and install bootloader into it to make the phone boot from it and then flash ftf via fllashtool.
I dont know if it can be done, but if anyone can please give me the size and mountpoints of nand partition then i think i can pull it off. Help me please.

CWM/TRWP can't mount sd-card or data. Perhaps wrong rommanager? topic

HI

i need your help.
I have an Photon Q 4g LTE and want to update to CyanogenMod.
Via Fastboot and ADB i can upload CWM/TRWP successfully.
But when i start it, it cannot mount data and SD-CARD. External SD is ok.
Even if i use external-sd i cannot flash custom rom. If failed by not mounting several directories.
In another thread for Samsung i found that there are "bad rommanager" which has a virtual recovery on SD, This makes sense in my case, i cannot have access to SD-Card (internal). But i cannot find any hint how to get and flash a new rommanager. Only via app. But i have no stock rom.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you in advance.

[Q] Cannot open /sdcard topic

Hi guys,

I'm looking for some help here.
I'm trying to run Cataclysm Rom on nexus 5. I already used it with kitkat but when i installed STOCK lollipop and then try to install Cataclysm i cannot open my sdcard dir. I get this error, even with su:
opendir failed, Permission denied. Then i cant even make downloads to my sdcard.
But from recovery i can open it and access to all the files in /sdcard. It seems that something is wrong with the permissions.

Of course i made factory reset before install Cataclysm and also wipe cache and dalvik.


Anyone know what might be happening?
Thanks in advance!

I installed an arch linux on arm image at my micro-sd-card (samsung 32G, class10 (maybe too fast?)), flashed u-boot-stuff (sorry, right now I'm not allowed to post links, but google ->U-Boot for Rockchip will point you to the androtab page), but I can't get my tablet to boot from the external microSD.

Is there a way to flash the kernel to CWM-partition and have it boot from microSD ?

CWM doesn't offer the option to boot from usb or external sdcard.

Can anyone please help me with this issue ?

I'd love to boot arch linux on my rk3188 tablet, and I think there are not so many steps to get there, most things already seem to be done...or am I wrong? :)

factory reset and /sdcard topic

Sorry if this is a noob question... But the N6 is the first phone that I've had with internal SD storage. What kind of wipes will erase the /SDCARD directory? The reason I ask is if I'm doing Titanium backups to /SDCARD, does that mean I occasionally need to move those files off before I do any kind of reset / flash?

[Q] Wanna save photos and videos taken by camera app inside micro sdcard topic

Hi to all members and developers of Xda,
I just bought Redmi note 4G and start to encounter a problem.
8GB internal storage is ok for the apps but for the videos and photos, i am sure that it won't be enough for me.
So I bought an micro sd card 32GB.
However, I still cannot find a way to let camera save in sd card. (Camera 360 also)
I am aware that this is because of kit kat.
My phone is already rooted.
Is there any solution for this using root permission?

Thanks
Phyo Aung Khant

[MOD] Save apps to sdcard (Surface RT) (Working) topic

Took many post's wats and finally got a working one!

Assuming that you have:

• Not modified the registry.


• Surface RT with Windows 8.1


• Patience (Essential)

First: Taking ownership.

Use

Code:

---

takeown /F "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" /A /R

---

Second

Let's remove the C:\Program Files\WindowsApps folder (As we have already taken ownership we can do this) just use "SHIFT+SUPR".
There is also a way to preserve already installed apps, this shouldn't affect but in the proccess I just deleted everything, anyway, you decide...

Code:

---

robocopy "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" "D:\WindowsApps" /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT

---

and then just use "SHIFT+SPR" to delete the folder.
Assuming that your news apps folder is at "D:\WindowsApps" change it to the directory where you want to have the apps.

Third

Now let's create the symbolic link

Code:

---

mklink /D "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" "D:\WindowsApps"

---

Restart
Try to install an app and... d*mn! Error 0xd00000bb :confused:
Don't worry just right click over the new app directory, in my case "D:\WindowsApps" and choose properties... then Security tab and then Advanced now we must be sure that there is the "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES" with full control if it isn't then just add it. Enable inheritance and tick the option "Replace all child permi..." then ok and wait... when it's done go to the Windows Store and click "Retry" and.... voi lá :D :D app get installed.

Be hapy :good:
