General :: Force Mounting Root On USB?
Mar 22, 2014
yesterday my phone fell off my hand, so the touchscreen is unusable... so the phone. The trouble is that I'm... well... not very clever at all, so all my contacts are on the phone itself, not the SIM card or my Google account. That's why I need to get into the root files with my computer, to find out the databases files.
The USB debugging mode wasn't activated I think. But I'm pretty sure there's a way to force mounting system files, even with a command line...
My phone is a "Le Mobile Sosh", a branded Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini with Android 4.2.

I hame an xperia tablet S and a dock hooked up with hdmi to my TV. I want to hook up my external HD to it for HD movies and what not but it will only read the HD formatted as Fat32 and as most of you know, it will only accept files up to 4gigs. Well that kind of kills HD. I also cannot root my device as it is release 6b .

I used DroidMod to root when I had 2.01. When 2.1 became available, I "un-rooted" then forced update to 2.1. Well to be honest, it is really slow and laggy. I now want to go back to DroidMod, but nothing I have tried seems to work.

When I connected my phone through cable it asks for formatting internal storage... After that I'm unable to mount sd and external sd also.. When I'm mounting sd card it shows "preparing sd card" and within a second it shows "sd card safe to remove".

Since my last upgrade of cynaogenmod nighties yesterday on my galaxy s2, my internal AND external sdcard are not mouting anymore
I tried to understand why and I found that my /storage folder was empty. I think it should have been populated by /init.smdk4210.rc script :
Code:
...
on early-init
export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /storage/sdcard0
export SECONDARY_STORAGE /storage/sdcard1
mkdir /storage 0775 system system[code]...
I would like to retrieve my internal sdcard content.

So the past few days i have been working on porting clockworkmod to my tablet Vexia Navlet 2 White (cpu telechip tcc892x, board m805_892x_evm), i have setup a build environment and managed to make a bootable CWM but have reached a bit of a wall, my recovery dont mount anything.
And so i have a few doubts:
1 - In boardconfig.mk
I have these lines
Code:
BOARD_BOOTIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x00a00000
BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x00a00000
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x19000000
BOARD_USERDATAIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x39800000
BOARD_FLASH_BLOCK_SIZE := 131072
The size must be set based on the cat /proc/mtd result (or so it says on the different guides i found)
Code:
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00a00000 00200000 "boot"
mtd1: 00600000 00200000 "kpanic"
mtd2: 19000000 00200000 "system"
mtd3: 00400000 00200000 "splash"
mtd4: 09600000 00200000 "cache"
mtd5: 39800000 00200000 "userdata"
mtd6: 00a00000 00200000 "recovery"
mtd7: 00200000 00200000 "misc"
mtd8: 00200000 00200000 "tcc"
After searching on the forums and googling i saw that some people use the hexadecimal value of the column size but other people convert it to decimal, what is the right way? are both okay? is the code from my boardconfig.mk up there ok?
2 -
Code:
BOARD_FLASH_BLOCK_SIZE := 131072
This value, after researching it seems that this must be the decimal converted value of the erase column
Code:
mtd8: 00200000 00200000 "tcc"
In this case 00200000 (hex) -> 2097152 (dec), but if i set this value i get and boot.img too big error, i dont know if this is the reason of the mounting not working, but leaving the default value i can make it and the recovery boot.

I have a multimedia player in living room and have made ISO files from almost all my DVDs. Easier and faster for all the family.
I have a TF101G (Asus Transformer) with ICS custom ROM and I would use it to play movies. So until now, I ripped my ISO files (themselves ripped from DVD) and converted them into avi or mkv files. I'm tired of doing that and wonder if there would be no one way to read the ISO files.
Code:
mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/file.iso /mnt/somewhere
But then?
1. Is there a reader for unpacking ISO files and play them? Apparently Daroon Player can do it but I do not understand how?
2. Would it be possible, once the reader identified, to create a script that mounts the ISO file and read through the player? How can I do this?

Each time I try to access my "gallery" I get a force close. It will let me open the main gallery folder, but as soon as I select a sub folder it force closes. Any ideas why this may be happening or how to stop it? I don't know if this is a root issue or not but i figured some of the most "informed" people hang out here. Its making it very hard to customize anything.

I've installed LinuxOnAndroid with Fedora 19, I'm trying to get the /dev/fuse /sdcard to mount with exec permissions.
Currently it's only mounting /dev/fuse without execute permissions.

i want to write a update-script that makes some changes on the phone, but before i can extract files, set symlinks, etc. i have to mount some partitions.
The format of the partitions is MTD, but i don't know how to find out which block is for /system, /hidden, /data, etc. and where is the block?

This was linked to within the Froyo Tips thread above however the link connected to a Blog where the blogger no longer wished to support the advice contained therein. He also appears to have taken down his blog completely since then.So here is the guide to installing your apps to SD by default by using the Android SDK and your phone attached to your PC under Disk drive while having USB Debugging active, to have all apps you download install to SD by default.

my internal SDCARD is corrupted and the /data partition is unusable.
My device is i9003 and it's running on MIUI at the moment. By default MIUI didn't detect my external SD or my internal SD but after editing "vold.fstab" I was able to mount the first partition of my external SDCARD as external memory and everything was good, I could finally use the camera and pretty much do everything else.
But I was still unable to mount the second partition of my external SDCARD as my internal memory which meant none of my messages could be saved and the phone would pretty much go back to factory settings after a reboot, this apparently is because the /data partition (present on the internal memory) stores all the user data such as the time, the theme I'm using, etc and not having a /data partition meant none of these settings were really saved.
Having no internal memory also means I cannot install any apps such as Link2SD.
Moving on, after many hours of googling I found out that it might not be possible to mount the internal memory using "vold.fstab" and the only way to do it could be by mounting the memory manually during init.
I want to use the second partition of my external SDCARD as internal memory, this is likely to solve all my problems and make my phone usable again.

Let's say I need to exchange my phone for whatever reason. Can I unroot by simply force updating to 2.0.1? If so, can someone post a link to the update file.

I am using SGS2 i9100g.
I have flashed from CM10.0, JB4.1.2 to pacman 3.00, JB4.2.2
ISSUES:
1. error mounting emmc and cannot detect external sd card
2. When i want to use camera or gallery, there is an error saying "No external storage available"
Attempted solutions:
I have tried the following but it does not solve my problem
1. re-flash the custom rom and gapps. (full wipe with wipe cache and dalvik cache)
2. reformatted my sd card to fat32.
3. went to recovery to unmount and remount my external sd card
4. tried to mount emmc in recovery but returns an error "error mounting emmc"
5. off and on and also rebooted my smartphone
6. tried these codes shown at the bottom(to manual remount)
- I have a storage folder which has sdcard0 which contains nothing, sdcard1 which contains my file in my external sd card and a usbdisk0 contains nothing also.
- Now i am not sure which is the cause of the problem where i cannot use my camera phone and gallery

I have a rooted Fascinate. After a second re-root my SF has been very buggy. My first root was successful. I messed something up trying to install voodoo and had to flash back to stock. Now, after a second buggy root I am faced with many freezes and FC's. (primarily in com.android.settings, but will float to various apps). Battery pulls don't seem to help. After a certain amount of using my phone, hopping WiFi, maps, email, just normal use, something will need to FC.
Within the next few days I plan on un-lagfixing my phone & un-rooting it. Ultimately I'd like to take it back stock and not root. This leads to my question: what is the best way to flash stock. I don't want anything left. I can tell there was something left from my first root because ads still do not show up. I had an ad block program installed on my first root.

Rooted 2.2, stock kernel etc. No ROM changes (yet). Trying to xferr some media files from internal mem to SD card. Shouldn't be this hard! USB Debugging checked, rebooted phone, stock charging cable. Connect to PC, select "MOUNT AS DISK" option on phone; AUTOPLAY pops up, but then windows explorer refuses to open and locks up. Only fix is to unplug phone from computer. Booted into Clockwork Recovery and tried to mount system. Now when I plug phone into PC, I show two new drives (good) but then when I click on them in explorer, it says "Please insert a disc into external drive" (BAD). I don't think this should be that tough! Is this a rooted phone issue? A windows issue? A general Android OS issue?

Didn't have a problem with this before on my EVO and can't recall any settings I might have changed to cause this problem but when I choose the "Disk Drive" connection for "Connect to PC" it takes a long while (minute or so) for the drive to mount. I have the default connection to "Charge Only" but when connected to my computer and I choose the "Disk Drive" option the mount is SLOW. It SEEMS to get a bit quicker if I RE-choose "Charge Only" and then go back to "Disk Drive" to mount the SD card, however, like I said above, it is MUCH SLOWER than before. I used to choose the Disk Drive option and the mount would occur RIGHT AWAY. But not it is slow.
I have installed various apps over the weeks but only recently experienced this slowness. I recall some information about USB debugging conflicting with the SD mount but that option is turned OFF on my phone. Anyone know of any apps that might be known to conflict with the SD mount?

It still says 'charge only' and not 'disk drive', yet when I plug it in I can still open the folder for Evo to view contents and on the phone itself, the SD card is unavailable.
I don't know what exactly I did to cause this. Its especially strange since it says charge only on the phone. Are there any common setting or app culprits for this?

Has anyone else noticed (after froyo update) that Verizon has added a drive when the phone get's mounted to the PC? One is for the phone, two is for the SD card and the third has some kind of Verizon software/drivers on them.
I know that this has been posted before but I've had trouble finding it by searching the forum. Does anyone know what this software is and if i can remove it so it doesn't appear every time?

Wasn't sure if this should be in the troubleshooting section, since there might not be anything wrong. When I mount my EVO, all I see is my 8 gig micro SD card and no other volume. I was assuming that if I wanted to root, I'd need to actually see the EVO its self and not just the SD card.
