Guest dread123 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 was trying to install from recovery- but it was using your new recovery i think, should i try the old recovery? had bravo v2.rom already installed -done a full wipe and still got the error? will try again?

Guest oclock Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 when i choose zip from sdcard finding package opening package installing update copying files E:failure at line 3 copy-dir Package:data DATA installation aborted thank you. this error has really something to do with the fact that I am installing android.tether in /data... i have to look at it in the evening... do you have a2sd installed? tried the old recovery method and new one?? what do you mean with 'old recovery method' ? oC
Guest dread123 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 the old usb method of pushing files through recovery.bat and tried new fake flash method :)
Guest Lollylost100 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) A2SD doesnt seem to work for me. When I try to install an application from the market it says: Insufficient space etc. I have flashed the rom and set up my memory card with SWAP=0 EXT3=1024MB and the rest for normal usage. I use a Transcend 8GB Class 6. Edited June 10, 2010 by Lollylost100
Guest Lollylost100 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 Also, after insralling ROM I can't seem to get into recivery mode with the fake-flash metgod. Still haven't tried the PC recovery.
Guest onthego Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 I'm pretty sure it's the ROM + my inexperience. I reflashed with a stock 1.21 ROM and everything is sweet now. A lesson learned. I'm having the same problem. -Rooted a Telstra 8183 w/Modaco root method. -Used the rooted 1.21.xxx here - 3 O'Clock Version -Wireless Tether works awesome, but the Market will not let me install any apps. I get the same "insufficient space" error msg. I have about 138MB on the phone, and 1GB on SD Card of free space, as per my settings->SD Card readout. -I have tried multiple SD cards, wiped the phone, re-booted, re-logged in to market place - I am not using APP2SD at all, and don't really intend to. Any help ???
Guest oclock Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 Hi, as promised I tried to reproduce the error with my device: I started recovery and flashed a few times in a row "3 oclock am", then I flashed stock 1.21 and again "3 oclock am". I do not get any errors (no error in line 3). Then I booted the phone and installed 3 random apps from the market. Again: No problems on my device (no "no insufficient space" error). Lollylost100: You wrote that you got problems after you installed A2SD. Can you please try only my rom, without A2SD. Before you flash, uninstall A2SD and do a 'factory reset', please. onthego & Lollylost100 and everyone else with the mentioned problems: Please use the command "adb shell" to connect to your phone. Then enter the following commands: >su >ls -l >/sdcard/root.txt >cd data >ls -l >/sdcard/data.txt >df >/sdcard/df.txt Please post all three textfiles here together with a short description of your problem ("line-3 error", "insufficient space"). Sorry that I do not have better news for you, but I cannot fix problems that I do not understand completely. Idea regarding line-3 error: This problem could arise, if you have A2SD installed (and only then). During update the sdcard partitions are not mounted and thus /data/app is a dead symlink and then the update process throws probably an error, if it tries to copy something to this folder. Solution: 1. I do not install android.tether in /data/app, but in /system/app. But then you cannot update it easily. 2. I do not install android.tether at all, but let it up to you, to do it manually. 3. I let it up to the user to uninstall/undo A2SD before installing my ROM, because I do not officially support it. I have currently no idea why you get 'insufficient space' errors. On my device and many others this ROM works without problems. Here I need your help, if you want that we sort out this problem. Best wishes oC
Guest bob463 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 Hi, First, I'm really a newbie with all of this, so I'm sorry for my questions :) Can I install this rom with the new fake-flash? I have preformed a nandroid backup for any case. I just wonder if I can restore this rootedupdate.zip with the fake-flash. Let's say it worked, will I be able to restore the nandriod backup after installing this new rom? Is the fake-flash workoing with this new rom?
Guest alexspy Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 oC Thanks for spending time to make the perfect 'vanilla' ROM. It's exactly what im looking for.

Also, is there any chance, although this is a vanilla rom, to remove that ghastly startup sound by default? Thanks again, hope this is helpful.
Guest dread123 Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 best option is to keep tehter off mate, that way we can install ourselves via the apk thats floating around. I would love tohave this basic rom but instead have to use others which have been messed about with. uninstalling as2d is far too much hassle. thanks

I had the same error (with and without installed A2SD)! But I solved it (but don't know how and why :) ...) : 1) copy the 3 o'clock and a2sd zip files on sdcard 2) recovery mode 3) wipe 4) install 3 o'clock 5) install a2sd 6) partition sdcard (256mb swap, 1024mb, rest) 7) reboot phone 8) phone booted "normal" and everything worked like before... ( 9) restored my Titanium backup -> no need to install/adjust/... anything *happy*) Hope it helps. Patrick Edited June 11, 2010 by mcpat

Thanks again, hope this is helpful. data.txt is empty, because you forgot to call "su" at the beginning to gain superuser rights. Maybe you could do it again. The other two outputs look normal so far, at least I do not see anything unusual. So maybe inside /data some rights are set wrong? oC
Guest KHShapiro Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 Hi all I did this with a similar (same??) 1.21.405.2 ROM from Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694564 I've now included BusyBox with this release, as the ROM from Modaco doesn't contain it!... I've made a new A2SD++ (yes, 2 ++ not 1 +) Patch with the following features: Kernel base: richardtrip's UVOC v14 (or v11 if you experience issues) Kernel, with modified RAMDISK image by me to get A2SD working. Items moved to SD: /data/app /data/app-private /data/dalvik-cache I've also patched it so any SWAP partition you have created during partitioning of your SDCard is utilised. Previous A2SD Setups (and SWAP usage) on Stock ROM never worked. It does now! Download links: *PLEASE NOTE* Make sure you download the CORRECT PATCH FOR THE CORRECT ROM! The ROM was changed on 8th June, to include BusyBox. To check if you have BusyBox installed, go into an adb shell and issue the following command: #ls -l /system/xbin You're looking to see if everything in there lists as (for example): lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 chmod -> busybox lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 ftpget -> busybox lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 whoami -> busybox lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 lzop -> busybox lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 rmmod -> busybox lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 swapon -> busybox lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 crond -> busybox lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-07 18:45 hostid -> busybox If it does, you need to download the Patch for use with the ROM with BusyBox installed. If it doesn't list what is mentioned above, then grab the Patch which is for the ROM *WITHOUT* BusyBox, as this will also contain the BusyBox patch. Downloads: UVOCv14 BASE For use with the ROM from here WITHOUT BusyBox (Downloaded & Flashed before 8th June) For use with the ROM from here WITH BusyBox installed (as of 8th June) OCv14 BASE For use with the ROM from here WITH BusyBox installed (as of 8th June) UVOCv11 BASE (For is you experience random crashes & reboots, I've found this to be more stable) For use with the ROM from here WITHOUT BusyBox (Downloaded & Flashed before 8th June) For use with the ROM from here WITH BusyBox installed (as of 8th June) BIG SHOUTY PLEASE NOTE BIT This is for a FRESH UNMODIFIED STOCK WWE 1.21.40 ROOTED ROM FROM THIS MODACO THREAD ONLY which is found in POST 1 of this thread! THIS IS NOT FOR USE ON OTHER ROMS OR CUSTOM ROMS OR THE XDA 1.21 ROM If you flashed one of my previous A2SD+ Patches (either r1-a2sd-desire-dalvik-fresh-signed or r1-a2sd-desire-dalvik-upgrade-signed), then you WILL need to do a reflash of the stock ROM again (no need for wipe) as the previous builds contained a different version of BusyBox which would basically overwrite the one in this ROM and cause a heap of trouble... USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! PaulW21781 please excuse my ignorance, but i am having a very hard time installing the app2sd++ (i keep going into boot loop) and i cant figure out what i am doing wrong...can you give detailed instructions? thank you in advance

Guest alexspy Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 oC, somehow i might have unrooted my phone? Wifi Tether works but i get this: $ su su Permission denied Perhaps this is related to the market errors?

Wifi Tether works but i get this: $ su su Permission denied Perhaps this is related to the market errors? If /system/xbin/su is there, then it is not unrooted. Just to be sure and that we talk about exactly the same. You should have done the following: adb shell > su -> Now you should be root. If not, please try the following and tell me what you get: adb shell > ls -l /system/xbin >/sdcard/xbin.txt There should be an entry "su" with permissions 4755 or rwsr-xr-x ("s" is important!). Do you have that? Edited June 11, 2010 by oclock
Guest alexspy Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 (edited) oC i think we are talking about the same thing. Here is the output for that, trimmed down to show only 'su' and 'klogd'. -rwsr-xr-x root root 22128 2008-08-01 13:00 su lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-06-11 00:01 klogd -> busybox Im still getting Permission Denied when i execute the su command. Puzzling. I wiped everything before flashing your ROM. I tried Wifi Tether first, and it allowed it Superuser permission and it worked fine. Edited June 11, 2010 by alexspy

Puzzling. I wiped everything before flashing your ROM. I tried Wifi Tether first, and it allowed it Superuser permission and it worked fine. This is really strange. "s" is set, which means that the su-program has superuser rights. "x" is also set for everyone, so that everyone is allowed to execute "su". If you call it, you should be root. It works on my device and on others, too. I see no reasons, how you can get a "permission denied". Strange, strange. And you proofed that it works by using wifi tether ... Something prevents you from becoming root in an "adb shell"... You could try to install a terminal emulator from the market and call "su" directly on your device. Another option is to install "root explorer". This is a file browser with root permissions. Any ideas are welcome... there *must* be an explanation for this phenomena! UPDATE: I have a possible solution, because now I remember that it also happened to me, when I first started "su" weeks ago :-) Do the following: adb shell > su -> Now look at the screen of your phone. Superuser should popup asking for permission ... If you dont answer this quickly, then you will get "permission denied". This happened to me, because my phone was out of sight and I did not realize that my phone expects something from me :-) Maybe this will solve your "su" problem? Edited June 11, 2010 by oclock
Guest alexspy Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 The problem is, i can't install anything from the market! I looked back at some old Cyanogen mods where he had the same problem and he fixed it. There is a thread here. And a mention in this change log: Changes in v3.3.3 * Fix permission problems that can cause "insufficient space" errors in Market. Im not sure what else to try. I'll do another wipe and reinstall. :)

This could be the reason why nothing can be installed anymore. Try the following: adb shell > su > chown system.system /data/app > chmod 771 /data/app This will hopefully fix your market problem. I am curious now. Please try it ASAP :-)
Guest alexspy Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 Thats done it! We finally found the problem. I hope anyone else having this issue now knows to solve it. More importantly though, why did it happen and what can be done to sort it out? I don't want to use A2SD at the moment so this works best. Another concern is the startup sound and a problem i occasionally have where when a call is picked up the microphone takes time to activate. Thanks oC for your efforts! Please keep this as clean and clear as you can!
