    SD Card won't mount

    Do you know how to use the terminal program on your Mac? If so, you might look at the man page for fdisk and see if it shows you how to set the partition(s) on the sdcard as primary partitions. Don't know if that utility program is avaialble on the Mac but almost all the common ones are. So...

    Root Samsung Galaxy Ace (s5830)

    You may want to look here: http://androidforums.com/ace-all-things-root/452326-samsung-galaxy-ace-all-things-root-guide.html It won't solve the issue of you Mac unzipping the rooting package though. That's a setting on your Mac that you'll have to find and at least temporarily disable. By...

    [DISCUSSION][POLL]interest in running ics/jb off SD?

    Would that just require a kernel with the loop driver already in it rather than being loaded during the init process? Just guessing ... I am running the mirage 2.6.32.9-073012 kernel in my ROM: the loop driver isn't being loaded as a module: # cat /proc/modules # [null output] # cat...

    Question on how to partion a sd card

    A swap partition is a bad idea for almost any way you will use your phone. The only thing a swap partition is for is as a place to move operating system processes to, i.e. running programs, not stored apps waiting to be started up, when your phone runs out of RAM (not NVRAM or sdcard space...

    [ROM][WIP]CM10.0.0-RC0-BobZ

    Well with no lockscreen and no adb functionality I think you need to reflash. I have adb access and the lockscreen but my phone still does random reboots so mine isn't perfect either. Until we have more testing/info it may take a bit to stomp out or work around the current set of bugs and...

    It would help to know what message you get when it fails.

    No internet access on one specific Yet important router

    Just a wild guess here. Go into WiFi Settings and check down at the bottom of the settings menu to make sure that you aren't on a fixed IP address. To access the Advanced settings while in WiFi settings use the menu button to bring up the Advanced settings. If you are on a fixed IP address it...

    [ROM][WIP]CM10.0.0-RC0-BobZ

    Sorry, no problems with adb. :cool: There is a new setting under Developer Options. Once you select Developer Options from the Settings menu and go into the list where you toggle Debugging on and off there is also a new toggle right up at the top of the menu that allows you to turn Developer...

    So screwed

    If you have a card reader then just reformat the sdcard, put a ROM on it and stick it back in the phone. If the card is toast you can get a new one for under $20. And that's for a good sized sdcard, not a 2GB unit.

    How can I?

    Open up a terminal window and run the 'mount' command. it will tell you what type of filesystem is on the /sd-ext partition.

    [ROM][WIP]CM9.1.0-BobZ

    One of the reasons that I kept using the Cm9 version was that when I tried to use the mass storage feature in CM 10 what happened was that the sdcard would be unmounted instead of attached. I just installed the 9-15-12 version and mass storage works as expected. I have seen comments saying...
