Sorry, for creating a new thread, but the others are getting so deep reading through them, and I have seen a few others with this problem, moving /data/app and /data/data
Below is EVERYTHING I have done. Ive installed the modded JF1.41 that includes the modded mountd.conf and init.rc. Everything works.. essentially.
busybox df -h shows the proper mount as /system/sd, system/sd exists.
init.rc contains
mount ext2 /dev/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd noatime nodiratime
mountd.conf contains
block_device /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
The commands I run are
busybox cp -a /data/app /system/sd
rm -r /data/app
ln -s /system/sd/app /data/app
busybox cp -a /data/app-private /system/sd/app-private
rm -r /data/app-private
ln -s /system/sd/app-private /data/app-private
cp -a /data/data /system/sd
rm -r /data/data
ln -s /system/sd/data /data/data
reboot, and I get the error.
Ok I've narrowed it down to the data/data move.
I did it again, this time using the Batch files that were posted in the other thread(Great work!) Everything worked until I moved the /data/data..
adb shell mkdir /system/sd/data
adb shell cp -rp /data/data /system/sd
adb shell rm -r /data/data
adb shell ln -s /system/sd/data /data/data
These were the commands used. Please help
Immediately upon reversing this using
C:\Google\SDK\tools>adb shell
# rm -r /data/data
rm -r /data/data
# busybox cp -a /system/sd/data /data/data
busybox cp -a /system/sd/data /data/data
#
I was able to install applications again.
busybox df -h

I have created a large partition, 2.3GB on an 8GB c6, so its not a space issue, I have previously formated the ext2 partition with paragon and still have the problem. When I move /data/data my phone displays 67MB free. Thats when the problems arrise.
the /data dir should look like this
#
Code:
cd /data
cd /data
# ls -l
ls -l

/data/data dir on the sdcard should look like something like this:

Looks right, not sure why I'm getting the error, as I am using the Data2ext2.bat which as stated above contains
Code:
adb shell mkdir /system/sd/data
adb shell cp -rp /data/data /system/sd
adb shell rm -r /data/data
adb shell ln -s /system/sd/data /data/data
Have rebooted afterwards with and without the USB cable attached to the computer.
Thanks so much for any help!
Has anyone else encountered the insuffecient space problem after the /data/data move that has found a fix for it?
I am also using rc30 mod(1.41) not ADP1.

i did before but i only moved apk files at that time... i reinstalled jf41.. now also you using the old command to move data/data ... see the updated thread will fix your issues with foreclosing and possibly the low space..
I've had the same issue as well. I downloaded an application from a site OTA and had the "low disk space" issue. I could download to pc and put the application on the SD card manually and that works fine.
I am newbie on android , and I just though of few question after reading some of the partition. http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...plained-boot-system-recovery-data-cache-misc/
But what I do not understand is , are those partition a folder or real partition ?
As for commonly known , Windows partition consist of either 4 Primary partition or 3 primary 1 extended partition.
-Master boot record partition
-Primary (max 4 , min 0)
-Extended partition ( multiple logical partition )
What about android ? Let me know whether I am wrong
-/boot ( equal to MBR )
-/system /recovery /data /cache /misc (1 parimary partition with different path like /system32 , /Programs files /My Document and etc)
-/SDcard0 (Extended partition )
External SDcard = something like external hard disk.
Overall any android Device have 2 partition ,1 Primary (/system /recovery /data /cache /misc) and 1 Extended logical ( SDcard0)
Please correct me if I'm getting the idea wrong.
Any expert here able to clear out or confirm them ?
Kindly let me know the correct answer.
I am just a starter
It's a hard question ?
Even for a dev too ?

I'm not an expert but as far as I know :
android has 5 partitions ..
/boot
/system
/recovery
/data
/cache
and there Is the SD card partition
/sdcard
Boot: Contains Kernal and Ramdisk ,, Without This Partition The Device Simply Won't Boot
System: Contains The Entire Android System,Android User Interface and System Apps
Recovery: Another Booting Option For Performing Advanced Recovery And maintenance Operations
Data: Contains The User Data Such As Contacts,Messages ... etc
Cache: Where Android Stores Applications Components and Cache
Hope It Helps

The partition is actually real partition like what we did to a hardisk ?
Possible to have 5 partition on a Flash drive ? as for window , maximum is 4 primary partition .
The question you are asking requires a bit of an explanation, but I will do my best (forgive me if I gloss over some things).
When a windows PC boots up, it initializes CMOS which searches for the hard drive or other boot device based on the order set up in BIOS/CMOS. Once it finds a storage device it attempts to boot that device (i.e. hdd=hard disk drive, eMMC=electronic MultiMedia Card). There is a bit set somewhere that determines what type of filing system is on the drive. In linux, you can see the partition table by using fdisk (devices are located in the /dev folder and look like /dev/sda or /dev/mmcblk0, depending on the type and how many there are). Therefore the command would be 'fdisk /dev/sda' and let's take a look at that...
Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.32.1).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.

Each partition stores data differently. Windows 95 all the way through Windows ME uses FAT (File Allocation Table) and doesn't use user permissions on files. NTFS (Windows NT File System) is the updated version of FAT which had its evolution and caveats. NTFS is the Windows standard now because it 1) can handle file systems larger than 2GB and 2) has the ability to set user file permissions so only the owner can read/write/execute certain files. Android uses ext4, which is a linux file system. The difference is that linux doesn't have drive letters. In windows, C:\ is your normal hard drive, A:\ is a floppy drive, and all disk devices (Thumb drive, CD ROM drive, tape backup, etc) have a letter and are almost always "mounted". In linux... the "root" is / and every device is either mounted as a subfolder or listed in /dev. So if I do a ls /dev I get this as a result (ls is the same command as dir for windows/dos):
ls -l

As you can see there are a lot of devices, and some of those are pipes/other linux things. To get a list of BLOCK devices, we can either use the lsblk command or we can go into the /dev/block folder and type ls...

Here you can see my sdcard (mmcblk0) and my primary hard drive (sda). The number at the end represents the partition number. As you cans see, I have 11 partitions on my hard drive on my laptop and my sdcard has 2 partitions (in liunx the first of almost everything is 0 instead of 1).
Those ARE real partitions... but the storage isn't exactly like a hard disk drive. All of the information is saved on memory chips in the phone, whereas a hard disk drive (HDD) uses magnetic dust to signify bits (if more dust is on the top of the sector it's a 1, and if more dust is down it's a zero). Also, there are MANY more Android partitions than the partitions that you listed.... using the "cat" command you can print a text file to the screen in linux (including Android) and the /proc/ folder has a bunch of text files with information about your device. Typing the command "cat /proc/partitions" on my ZTE prints this out...
$ cat /proc/partitions

Each of those partitions stores different information in them. One is the cache partition, which is where all app data is stored. One is for the baseband (cellular radio chip), zram0 is RAM, system contains the Android system file (like c:\windows). Nowadays, there is an frp partition to lock the device if someone attempts to factory reset the device, the account information is still maintained (as the data and cache partitions are formatted but frp isn't, and therefore Android won't let you in unless you supply the username and password). The laf partition has to do with Fastboot (a PC command line program to change the partitions) and there are also vendor, firmware, carrier, and several others that I don't know the purpose of.
I hope this helped you and maybe some other people.
Hey guys,
I've begun this thread for all those who have devices which don't have a source code and as a result, no TWRP.
You can request a TWRP on this thread for those devices. Since these are not official builds, they won't be available on TWRP website, only here.
You need to post these things for getting a TWRP.
1. recovery.img of your device
2. Install DiskInfo from Play Store, enable the following settings in the Diskinfo app
Code:
Show mount path
Show partition name
Show file system
Expert mode
Unmounted partitions
Device Mapper partitions
Temporary filesystems
and post screenshots of the app.
3. Install any root explorer and send screenshots of /dev, /dev/block directory and /dev/block/platform/whateverfoldersarehere/ directory
4. Screen resolution of your device (720x1280 for example)
After this, wait for a few days until I post your TWRP recovery.
While requesting for the first time, do not quote this post, just mention me by
Code:
@Augustoandro
It will help in keeping the thread clean.
Here are the already available 100% working and validated recoveries:
1.Micromax Canvas Juice 3+ a.k.a. Micromax Q394:
https://mega.nz/#!OF8USCJA!ZfoNcfVegFIw6qjHN2az-Ni7n85xFEo4-ZaTSGZasvE
2.Chuwi Hi8 Air (Ported by Kellwa):
Move to this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/recovery-chuwi-hi8-air-twrp-t3875196
3. Doogee S90:
https://mega.nz/#!zJ9W3A4D!ZrfLAguHW5cBJ0fPsbeo0blG2a1d-lrdruNGo4m3Q-U
Note: Flash the zip from the thread below to disable dm-verity and forceencrypt, so that your TWRP can run without encryption errors.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389
Below are the recoveries that haven't been tested or have bugs. Feel free to work on them and make them better. But notify me when you do so, so that I can provide the improved TWRP through this thread to others.
1. Archos 50B Neon:
https://mega.nz/#!WN9wCQYb!LF4SAuLrwuI6um351mAgFIVJpGWifNRlD8-esc8fGnw
2. Gionee A1 Plus:
https://mega.nz/#!PV0SkAbb!egNFZEZYgWukl0Pi1KSAO3WXxpjuKrNqemvdDOpPzDI
3. Honor 7C AUM-L41:
https://mega.nz/#!vV8mBCjL!m-adiDl95-DjXr6XjRLJW63iG2z-tQPwqdyUSczmZSE
4. Honor 7C LND-L29:
https://mega.nz/#!jM9kQKjB!KBvOKKkyqn5UsHkYjFotn3-w5qGzsMMFOhcxB0knEIg
Notes:
1. Archos 50B Neon has Reboot Menu issues.
2. Gionee A1 Plus hasn't been tested yet, please test it.
3. Honor 7C TWRPs have a bug due to which /data is encrypted by default.
Try flashing the "dm-verity and forceencrypt disabler zip" from the thread given below
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389
If it works, contact me on this thread so that I can publish a new version TWRP for the Honor 7C devices with everything working.
CHANGELOG:
1. Fixed external sdcard or usb-otg not detected issue. Both can be read and used to flash files available in them.
2. ADB sideload fixed. Though it still shows "Starting ADB Sideload feature" when the feature is already working. You can check whether it works by typing this command
Code:
adb devices
If it shows output such as
Code:
1234567890ABCDEF sideload
then it means sideload is working.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
In case, the TWRP released upon your request shows that the partitions can't be mounted, send me the screenshot of the following command run from TWRP terminal.
Code:
find /dev/block -name by-name
THANKS TO CONTRIBUTORS WHO MADE THIS THREAD BETTER:
Thanks to @inguna for resolving the "SDCARD and USB-OTG not detected" bug and making MTP, ADB work.
Thanks to @seanybiker for pointing out the "dm-verity and forceencrypt disabler zip" thread and @avirus for testing out the zip and the Doogee S90 TWRP.
Also, thanks to @Zackptg5 for his work on "dm-verity and forceencrypt disabler zip".
Thanks to @aIecxs for pointing out that the mount paths of partitions in recovery boot might be different from normal boot, and also providing the troubleshooting method, in case such a situation occurs.
In case, you want to port a TWRP yourself, feel free to check out this guide:

Go into the Magisk thread, there are installation instructions for rooting using a patched boot.img
Flash the boot.img using fastboot.
Now, you have root on your device and can use any root explorer.

I requested for the things posted in the Original Post because many stock recovery.img have an incorrect recovery.fstab.
This happened in case of Micromax Q394, my own experience, resulting in OS Not Installed Error.
That's why I made those requests for screenshots.
Btw, did you check whether the TWRP you have is showing OS Not Installed error or not?
Just try rebooting to system to check that.

I have your stock recovery.img, I can create a TWRP but don't expect it to work since you haven't provided all the files I asked for.
I looked at the way Hovatek tool works, if the stock recovery.img has an incorrect recovery.fstab, the TWRP ported using Hovatek tool would be faulty even if it boots up.
Therefore, please provide the mentioned screenshots.

Hey, this one is a test build, I hope you have unlocked bootloader, flash it at your own risk, I have tried my best to avoid any bugs, but you may report if you find any.
Once you approve it, it would be available through the Original Post, i.e., the first post of this thread.

Thanks a lot! I will definately be donating you.
Do you mind me asking something before flashing your TWRP. I know nothing about TWRP porting and stuff but I have noticed it is nearly five times smaller than the stock recovery. Is it normal? Just a bit apprehensive. Sorry for asking :good:

Yes, TWRP and Stock recovery sizes vary, since there are different files in them.
