:o what have orange done, it should be a crime

Try another file manager, some cannot see some files....try xplore

edit: so it is there ?

because you are on ics with stupid mtp, no usb storage lol, some files cannot be seen, I had this problem other day.

[Guest shootomanUK]

[Guest]

wait it might be file types in windows not shown

I think it is mtp which is what ics uses, there is no mass usb storage.

[Guest shootomanUK]

ok i got it, its 565MB does that seem right ?

[Guest]

Yeah mine was 409mb.....all that extra is orange bloat :lol:

[Guest shootomanUK]

ok ive zipped up the system.tar so its only 329MB now easier to upload

[Guest shootomanUK]

where is best for uploading ?

[Guest]

mediafire maybe, but you will have to zip it up into a split archive.

Are you ok to pull system.img too lol, only if you are ok for bandwidth, could be useful in that we can directly flash it through recovery and may find a way to get onto orange for those stuck on xolo?

ok how do i do it ?

[Guest]

First do:

adb shell

su

cat proc/partitions

[Guest The-Bledard]

Upload it on dev-host, better than mediafire... here is the link :

Try this:

adb shell

su

cat dev/block/mmcblk0p2 >/sdcard/system.img

It will probably hang a while if it is pulling

now check sd card
