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.
OTA update failed, the phone spontaneously shut off and rebooted to the beautiful "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and may not work properly." screen. After being greeted by said screen, the phone reboots and goes to the same screen. Recovery doesn't boot. Fastboot doesn't allow me to flash any image (even signed from google). If I boot into fastboot and do a "fastboot continue", the phone boots to a blank screen with adb running in recovery mode, but with the port closed (can't flash a recovery OTA).
Someone please help. I've tried all solutions I could think of. I don't know what is left.

I wonder if the OP unlocked the bootloader and rooted. If so, they might not take too kindly to replacing the device. If it's stock then head there today and get a new one. How about a factory reset attempt?

Impossible to factory reset. Recovery does not boot. Bootloader is locked, as fastboot flashing unlock returns as invalid.

Same "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and may not work properly.", and recovery fails to boot. Nothing on the display, phone either shuts off or boots to charging mode.

What was your situation before this started? Unlocked? Rooted?
Edit: I see you were updating.

Recovery is sometimes not easy to get in to. I had to do it 3 times in a row before I got it to take. So I'm sure you know it's hold the power button and then hit vol up. But if you don't get it just right it will reboot or turn off. Does adb work?
Ok so this is getting weirder by the second. Just saw a teamwin recovery screen pop up...
I purchased this device second hand and used it with no problems until the first update, but it definitely looks somewhat tampered with. Any advice?
This occurs when I perform a fastboot continue. At that point I have adb up in recovery mode. But since I see nothing on screen, I can do nothing. Can't sideload because it's not at the sideload screen. Suggestions?
EDIT: Okay, so I have a VERY basic adb shell up through TWRP. I can't access TWRP directly because it "hasn't started". Ideas?
EDIT2: adb shell has basic busybox commands and is running root. I have downloaded a new TWRP image. What is the partition where the pixel has its recovery? Under /dev/block/mmc....?
Can you get into bootloader?
Which slot is active?
Can you
Fastboot set_active _b
Or
Fastboot set_active _a
And try getting to recovery or booting?

b slot is active. Will reboot now and (attempt to) switch to a. Found the appropriate fastboot by googling, please hold...
Code:
Setting current slot to 'a'...
(bootloader) Command is not supported.
(bootloader) Please unlock device to enable this command.
FAILED (remote failure)

What a surprise
Also to clear up, the only way for me to get thrown into this psuedo adb shell in TWRP is to "fastboot continue" at the fastboot screen. Recovery fails to boot. System fails to boot. Fastboot is useless because oem unlock is not possible.
Partition table dumped. Any ideas for where the recovery resides?
Side note: I have never ever seen this many partitions on any device. Ever.

May I suggest unlocking the bootloader now that you have things going better for you?
Did you ever get the system to boot up?
Can't FRP is locked. Guess the FRP partition got screwed.
