OS or device - Motorola Droid 3

I'm not sure if this is even the right kind of forum to post this, but I imagine some dev has had this. When trying to move files onto my device using dolphin file manager on Ubuntu with KDE desktop the files never transfer. Anyone know why this is and if I can fix it. Is it a problem with ubuntu or with the device(xt860) It's a pain to switch to windows just to move a file. If a mod wants to move this thread that's cool. I wasn't sure where to post so here it went.

do you put the phone in mass storage mode?
is Ubuntu giving you any errors?
do you unmount it before removing the cable?
[edit] topic more suited for general. a mod will likely move it. [/edit]

Curious, do you have a memory card and reader available to test out? Imo try putting files on the card with the reader in ubuntu and see if you can read them on the phone, if not it's ubuntu.

Are you mounting the sdcard or internal storage?

With ubuntu and the phone in usb mass storage mode he would be auto mounting both, although that does bring the question to mind ... Are you sure you're looking at the right disk on the phone?

How do you know it didnt transfer?
On the phone, internal storage is /sdcard, external is /sdcard-ext. Are you looking in the right place?

I tried it multiple times, and I checked both the internal and external sdcard each time, just to make sure I didn't drop it in the wrong one. I also tried moving it through terminal commands just to see if it was a glitch in the dolphin package. I also tried another package "file manager" or something. I'm not at home to check the name. Everytimenothing. I tried unmounting the drives, and just disconnecting. Everytime, nothing. Did it in windows, and copied over right away.
PS. I also tried both moving, and copying, both show it on the card, but when I disconnect, its not there

Droid X2 SD Storage Flip-Flop

I was wondering if a dev would be able to come up with a SD Storage flip flop for the Bionic? I had always used the modified app that navenedrob had posted here for my Droid X2,

What a pain in the ass the two storage systems are.
I haven't tested this but it's just a theory since Linux is generally pretty flexible. Hypothetically you could just use the Terminal to unmount both the storage spaces, and then re-mount them but switch the addresses. See here:
/dev/block/vold/179:1 is the address of the external storage, named '/sdcard-ext'
/dev/block/vold/179:58 is the address of the internal storage, named '/sdcard'
so you could HYPOTHETICALLY type into the terminal:
su
unmount /sdcard-ext
unmount /sdcard
mount /dev/block/vold/179:58 /sdcard-ext
mount /dev/block/vold/179:1 /sdcard
and it should mount the two in each others' locations.
Again, I haven't tested this and my phone is on the charger right now so I'm not going to yet, but assuming that works it would probably just restore itself to normal when you reboot since I'm assuming there is a script that mounts the hardware locations to everything when Android loads.

The "script" is vold.fstab in /etc folder. I edited this and was able to change mount locations, but had random reboots when trying USB mount to computer.

Probably because when it's trying to mount it sees them still as what they really are instead of the edited vold.fstab. There is probably somewhere else you would need to edit to get that working correctly also. Or you could try something such as Auto Mount in the Market. Maybe it'd work.
Anyone have luck downloading that file? Seems like its down or its just me?

The problem is after the swap when you connect to the PC over USB it unmounts the internal memory, and dual-mounts the microSD card. If the phone accesses the card at the same time as the PC the phone will reboot. To fix this the init.rc file would need to be modified, but it reverts to the stock file on each reboot.

CWM zip originally by navendrob
Does not have full functionality yet! Read below!
Here is a CWM zip that I have modified that will flip flop SD storage locations. This is just to speed the process when someone figures out how to mount them to computer.
Important Facts
make your own back up before flashing
mount storage in CWM
Flash
This will mount the actual SD card as SDCARD and internal as SDCARD-EXT, but will not mount via USB to a computer. This will reboot phone and has already been discussed in thread.

[Q] How to flash a ROM with out USB

I started this thread in the "General discussion" section about this but I'm starting to think my problem might be more SGS specific.
My problem is that my phones USB connection stopped working then I foolishly reformatted my system partition with out having another ROM with which to replace it. I still have "ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.3" installed but am unable to find a way to install another ROM. Most people seem to say flashing from an external SD card is trivial with CWM but I can't work out how to do it. Does anyone know a way to flash a ROM from the external SD card with CWM v2.5.1.3 on an SGS, or any other way I could get an image back on my phone that doesn't require a working USB connection?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Go into update from zip as usual then scroll down to external sd... if that's not working go into advanced and check if external sd is mounted

Yeah, I think that might be the case. There is an option to "mount /sd-ext" but I don't think that actually mounts the external SD card. I think it has something to do with an "extended" or "extra" partition. In any event, when I select the option I get this error:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2
(File exists)
Error mounting SDEXT:!​
Also, I can't see an "external sd" option under "update from zip". Under "install zip from scdard" there is an option to "choose zip from sdcard" but this doesn't seem to access the external card.
Any idea how I might be able to update to a later version of CWM?

Since the phone is worth over £200 I would get it fixed you should look online and see how easy it is to fix you might be able to or know someone who can fix it at a cheap price (that part is most likely on sale online for way less)

Well, here it is: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Samsung-...Parts_Tools&hash=item2571b036fe#ht_1558wt_952
Just have to work out how to do it now.
I had the phone in pieces the other night trying to clean the port and that socket seem pretty firmly attached. Have to see if I can turn up any instructions. There are lots of sights saying they'll do it for you but haven't been able to find any instructions on how to do it myself yet.

There is a file on my internal memory I cannot delete. How do I get rid of it???

The name of the file in question is:
í/à=√f+ⁿ.bí£
Yes, that filename has a forward slash in it!!!!!!!!
How do I get rid of this file??
It is preventing me from running NanDroid backups, and I cannot format the partition (bizarrely).
I suspect the filename is corrupted.
If I run ls -il I do not get an inode number, just a series of question marks ?????
Have you tried renaming it and then deleting? Try also a different file manager if that doesn't work (Solid Explorer Trial shouldn't have any problem)
It can't be renamed unfortunately.
I have used a variety of android file managers with no success.
I'm rooted on CM10.1 and have tried CWM tools also.

The unlocker tool didn't do the job I'm afraid.

Hello.
I have exactly the same problem as you. Could you explain the way you format the partition? I tried with 3 different usb format tools but I cant find the way to format it from my computer, they dont detect my internal memory as a usb drive and I dont know how to do it
Thank you very much.

I had the same issue with multiple files not deleting. The solution I found was the following. I have Chasmodo's Asylym ROM installed, and its kernel has the TWRP recovery, and in advanced settings of that recovery mode you have the option to pick what you want to mount. I connected Note to my PC and picked Mount USB storage in TWRP, and the phone's internal storage was now accessible on my computer. After that, I just formatted it on my PC using the usual method: right click on the drive, Format, picked FAT32 and quick format. It cleaned the entire thing and the freakin files were finally gone. Do keep in mind that this wipes your entire internal storage.

Hi
So sorry I haven't replied earlier, I removed the subscription from the thread once I nailed the problem.
Basically you have to connect to the N7000 as a mass storage device.
There are different ways of doing this depending upon the Rom you are using.
This mounts the internal and external drive on the N7000 as drives in Windows.
Then using a FAT32 formatter you can format the internal drive.
It's that simple.
Take it easy.........FF

When I face these problems on Linux, usually I use " rm -i * ".
That is the interactive mode of "rm".
So basically the system will ask you to delete each file it founds on the directory. You'll answer "no" for each file except the one you want to delete.
The system should be able to pass the right info to the rm command (I think it will not pass the name but the inode) to delete it.

[Q] HD+ Something wrong with internal storage after wiping

I just installed CM11-3/28, and it's working perfectly so far.
I was stuck at the cyanogenmod robort the first time, so I wiped data and installed again. It succeeded this time, but the internal storage is now only 27G in all. I guess the original data was somewhere on emmc, but no idea how to find and remove them.
Wish some help, thanks:)

Look in /data/media. You can remove most of the stuff there. Just leave the 0 and clockworkmod folders and their contents. The rest is old stock media files you probably do not want. But 27GB for internal storage is not bad since it does share the 32GB with the CM11 /system files and /data files.

So sorry for that><, actually I am confused myself. I have two questions.
The first is, total space of Nook should be 32G, but it now shows only 27G on my device, I wanna see if I can find out what the 5G is when connected to my computer. But under USB debuging mode, it still shows only internal storage(27G) instead of the whole emmc(32G). So, according to your first reply, is the 5G capacity system memory? If so, I don't need bother.
The second one is still about connecting to computer. I can visit data/media on my device but not on my computer, how can I get root access to Nook from my computer? (I found this, but haven't tried yet http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587717)

I don't know why you think you need to have access to root with your PC when you have it directly on the Nook. Just use your root file manager to look at and delete any unnecessary files as I described earlier. Those locations are the only ones to get rid of. The rest are required so don't mess with them. And the maximum you will have will be about 28GB since the rest is used by files necessary to operate CM.

To back up leapinlar, even android in settings -> storage, shows 27.01GB total space for me. Not more. Like he said, that's all you get. Normally, any hard drive that says x amount will have less - the one is your computer does as well (normally). That's how it is.
While its really good your learning, like leapinlar, I'm getting the feeling like your pushing to crash the device. That's fine if your confident that you can bring it back from that or don't care or have someone else around to fix it. Don't let anyone stop you from learning but just remember - if it crashes - you'll have to deal with it.

[Q] Imternal sd awkwardly partitioned

Hi all,
I noticed that my internal sd card has two 0 folders, they are like so
Sdcard/0/0/
Everything from internet saves on the first /0/Download for ex., i am now on arhd 51, but previously on archidroid everything saved inside /0/0/Download, is there any way to fix this, or repartition or something without need to wipe all the data in sd? Because everything is messed up and i don't know any more wich uses what folder and so on.
Thx in front.

can you post some screenshots of the two folders and their content, perhaps i can tell you what to do?
Edit: you can also copy all the files in one of the 0 folders to the other 0 folder and delete the empty one, i asked for screenshots just to make sure if there is any important file in one of those folders that maybe will cause problems with functioning of other apps or system settings if you replace it.
Here is the /0/0/ and i cannot delete archidroid folder or clockworkmod folder (write protected), also if i copy pictures from 0/0/DCIM/Camera to 0/DCIM/Camera, they are not shown, even after reboot when mediascanner is running, when i transfer them back they are imediately shown.
Edit: i can delete archidroid and clockworkmod folder, but via phone, not via pc, but the probem with transfering pictures to now used DCIM still persists.

oke bro, here is what you should do everything personal and important to you like pics./music/documents copy to your external sd card or to your pc if possible both should be safe. format your internal sd card of the phone in recovery mode after everything is restored back put your files back into proper folders and all should be fine again. you are rooted and have custom recovery installed right?

Yes of course i'm rooted with twrp, i tought there was some other way than getting in all that copy paste, but i'll do that and then it must, just must work.
I think i messed something up in archidroid installation when it asked for EXT4 repartitioning or something like that.

yes that must be it, as i had read somewhere on these threads a similar problem like yours its better to avoid changing or setting options from which you dont understand what they do like EXT4 or F2FS partitions unless you know what you are doing. at least thats what i do to avoid any problems with my device

Yes, i know now for future, but, one more question..
It's 'calculating time for copy...' now, i see it'll take ages to 'calculate', so, is there any option to just mount the internal sd card, i remember i could mount it via CWM on my old S2 and everything went quick, but i cannot mount just SD anymore, only as a 'Media device', it seems quite slower..
Do you know an option to do that?
Edit: Disabled indexing, it's flying now

I do recommend using philz touch CWM advanced edition or just the CWM touch version as a recovery choice (especially philz) rather than Twrp, but its all up to you..
I was on philz quite a while, now testing twrp, i did the wipe, everything's perfect now, but i accidentaly deleted my pics coz' they were in the 0/0/ and i deleted the second 0 thinking i don't need it
I got a little shock but i'll recover
