Hello Fellow Sensation Owners!
A couple of days ago someone asked about the Sensation's internal storage layout, which got me curious, as we get 1GB of storage to data partition, about 700MB for system, and where does all the rest go? boot is just a couple of megabytes, and firmware (combined), is 400MB.
When I searched google for it, I couldn't find any mention of the Sensation's partition layout, and barely found how to get it by myself. So here I am, creating this mention/guide (for future people who like me want to know what the partition layout is).
To get the layout and sizes, I used the df command in the shell, which gives a nice table with all (mounted) partitions, with information about them.
The results I got were:
Code:
Filesystem Size Used Free Blksize
/dev 271.7M 52K 271.6M 4096
/storage 271.7M 0K 271.7M 4096

/system 787.4M 388.8M 398.6M 4096

/devlog 19.7M 14.8M 4.9M 4096
/storage/sdcard0 14.8G 13G 1.8G 32768
/mnt/secure/asec: Permission denied
/mnt/asec/com.quoord.tapatalkxda.activity-1 5M 3.2M 1.8M 4096
Note: I got this list on Cyanogenmod 10.1, a different ROM might bring
different results.
There are a few points of interest here:
1) There are 5 empty partitions, 271.7MB each.
2) Apps stored on the SD card are listed as individual partitions - in my case - XDA app (also tested on Sony Ericsson Live With Walkman - same result).
3) /mnt/secure/asec needs root access to be read, and after enabling, it seems to be mounted to the same space as the sdcard. this partition is actually the Android_secure foldier on the SD Card. This makes me suspect that some of the empty partitions are also mounts of the same partition from different directories inside it.
4) My suspition is most probably wrong, as the sum of all partition sizes amounts to about 4GB, which is what listed on the spec sheet.
5) /boot partition is not listed, which makes me believe some more are not actually mounted.
To know if there are double-mounted partitions, I checked the mount list on /proc/mounts by using this command:
Code:
[B]CAT /proc/mounts[/B]
I will post points of interest I found as It's quite long and mostly messy:
Code:
rootfs / rootfs ro,relatime 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid,relatime,mode=755 0 0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p28 /devlog ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc 0 0
We can see something interesting - /mnt/secure, /mnt/asec, /mnt/obb, /mnt/fuse, /storage and /dev are all mounted from tmpfs, which is not an adress on the mmc. I have no Idea what this means, but it explains all those partitions seen before - They are the same space (probably like /mnt/secure/asec - folders inside a bigger partition).
This thread is meant for me (and probably other curious users) to understand how the sensation is formatted.
Also, to keep a clean explanation of what each partition actually is (for begginers and to have it organized), here is a list of partitions with explanations about them (all those I know are included, some are basic knowledge, list will be updated).
/data - where your apps and basically all your data that is stored on the device is
/system - where system apps, frameworks, and the rest of the OS is (excluding kernel)
/boot (not listed) - kernel
/storage/sdcard - no need to be imaginative here - the SD card
/mnt/secure/asec - the android_secure folder on sdcard
/cache - app cache - where temporary data is stored to speed up apps
What I'm trying to do here is to create a clear and comprehensive explanation of the Sensation's NAND layout, so anyone looking for it could find it. For non-devs it's of not much use, but nice to know. Also to keep a clear way to check it on other devices (had to dive to linux websites to find some stuff here).
Would be glad if someone more knowledgeable than I am would add/correct me here, to make this helpfull.
To your Enjoyment/feeding your interest.

Nobody can repair Nand memory's, probably your entire motherboard needs to be replaced.
All the tmpfs filesystem mounts are temporary ones and are on ram..

I remember the HTC Desire, you could actually change the partition sizes to however you see fit using thalmus HBOOT patcher. It's a shame nobody managed to do it on here as I use AOSP which hardly uses any internal memory

Whoever said this device is 4GB was drunk.
can you tell me please witch mmcblk is hboot?

Could someone with root access tell me how are the partitions laid out in the Transformer, and their sizes? How much space is there for /data , for example, for installing stuff?

Here is the Download link to the Recovery-Dump.img and Boot-Dump.img
http://www.mediafire.com/?4f68dnxaohbc3sh
is there ANY WAY you can do a system dump?
i PMed you
there is a custom recovery being built as we speak here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309454&page=10
Not to hijack the thread, but can either of you provide me with a system dump of the Conquer?
I got a hold of a Conquer the other day and apparently it has a messed up firmware (device reboots when I try to use the camera). I tried to do a factory reset, but the result is the same. I'm hoping to get a hold of a working system dump so I can re-flash it and maybe do some development on it.
Any help would be appreciated!
I don't have this phone anymore but I did a wipe in android recovery and it worked to fix when my phone was in a bootloop

A brand-new Galaxy Nexus, rooted, installed many apps w.o. problems. (e.g. sshd, Total Commander, ConnectBot, OpenVPN, ...) Tried to install Midnight Commander as seen here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1243699&page=6
No success, so I tried from scratch, copied files into /system dir and subdirs. It works. But in some subdirs the mc has no read-permission, e.g. /system, /data... I'm wondering, able to listing contents of these directories directly from console. Also able to copy files into /system or /etc with F5.
Any Hints?
Thanks, Charmin.

Same problem on ICS (cm-9.0.0-RC1-maguro.zip)...
I do not have the solution but I may have a clue. When mc attempts to access /system, strace shows:
Code:
chdir("/system") = 0
getcwd("/system", 4096) = 8
stat64("/system", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
stat64("/system", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
stat64("/", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open("/system", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY) = 3
fstat(3, 0xbe98d868) = -1 EOVERFLOW (Value too large for defined data type)
close(3) = 0
Hopefully someone will find that info to be helpful...

I tried midnight commander on the standard AOSP ICS via the emulator that comes with the SDK (platform 4.1). No problem! Access to any directory (i.e. /system) is error free...
This issue appears to be specific to Cyanogenmod (at least with my version cm-9.0.0-RC1-maguro.zip).
Is the source code (w/ android specific configure options and patches) for this version of Midnight Commander available somewhere?
I decided to build my own version of Midnight Commander so I could fix this bug for myself. You can find it here (in n00b URL syntax):

Why not use Ghost Commander? Free and works well, it's available from Google Playstore.

Ghost Commander looks great and I'll probably use that too... It's great to have both!
The Ghost Commander is a GUI app that runs on your device's screen as a normal Android application does.
This version of Midnight Commander that I've made is a console app. It runs in a terminal. So, to use it on your device's screen, you would first need to start a "terminal emulator" application. But that's not where it really shines because (on a phone at least) it's very small and the default soft-keyboard does not have function keys, etc..
This version of Midnight Commander is ideal if you are using your home PC (with a full keyboard) and you SSH into your device. For example, if you are running DroidSSHd on your device and you use PuTTY from you home PC to connect. Now you're really cooking!
So they're both good (but different)...

Hello guys,
I've double checked MC and everything seems ok, on my phone it works (it has 16Gb internal memory from which about 10Gb are assigned to /storage/sdcard, and I added 16gb external SDCARD which it mounts under /storage/extSdCard).

The only question that now comes to mind is if you somehow formatted the the /mnt/sdcard with ext2/3 filesystem ? Or is it FAT32 single partition ?
Hello viulian,
thank your reply .
I think you are right - it depends on filesystem type (and it size also) .
Large /mnt/sdcard/external_sd (vfat) is listable,
but large ext4 partition /system and /data is NOT listable.

I have p3100 8GB and I saw that internal storage is only 2GB. is this normal? if not, what should I do?

It is 8GB total between all items stored. You have /data, /cache, /sdcard, /system, and then a couple other random items as well. The total of all of those should be ~8GB.

But isn't 2GB too low? Its only 2GB and I cant instal apps to sdcard.
sorry for my bad English.
I have about 3gb of storage not counting the space my apps take up.

Tab2lite beta 2
Storage lists my total space at 4.6gb.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app
The memory layout on the Tab 2 is a strange bird. The 8GB is divided into two partitions of equal size, and you will always see the internal memory and virtual SDCard being of equal size. You really only have 4GB to actually install anything programwise. With Ice Cream Sandwich, you cannot move apps to the ExtSDCard because of Google's far-seeing "wisdom" that said that we would not ever need more than what they gave us in the Tab 2. There ARE some apps that will allow you to move some game files to the ExtSDCard like GL to SD(Root) and Directory Bind, but there really isn't a long term solution yet on how to move apps to the ExTSDCard consistently without need of special apps. I imagine that it may take a major ROM tweak that will allow this function. There is also a 1GB dedicated cache directory that needs to be cleaned ever so often otherwise Google Play will not allow you to install anything once the cache is filled. There are a number of utility apps available in the Play Store that will optimize memory and clear the cache...

So what should I do to get 4GB free space instead of 2GB ?

This is not right.
There are several partitions of the 8gb flash memory, not two. Not being able to move apps to an sd card is not an ICS issue but a modification made by Samsung. The cache never needs to be cleared, its size is 688mb not 1gb, and if you want to clear it (even though it offers no benefit whatsoever to do so) you can do it from the menus in ICS.

Do you have a terminal emulator app? adb? It's hard to fix your problem if we don't know more.

Yes I have terminal emulator app.
I have similar problem. I have p3110 16Gb and after installing Tab 2 lite beta 2 (I tested all other p3113 rom,stock and custom, and they all worked without any problems), memory went from 16GB to 8G. I can't find a way to revert this(installed the proper stock rom). One other strange thing is that i can't re-partition anymore using odin,it fails on that process. Any ideas?

I wonder if this will work without busybox but you should run
$ su
then
# fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
then
# df
also
# mount
and tell me what you see.
It would also be helpfull if you could go to the '/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/' directory and tell me what you see.
For the guy that flashed tab2lite, you should proabably pm the dev and ask him for an odin flashable partition table for the 16gb version.
This is what i get.

You have the 8gb model and a custom rom. How did you flash this? I heimdal or Odin? What ROM are you on?
Your /data partition is messed up.

We can close this threat. I solved this problem myself. Formated data and cache and now I have 4.56GB of space. THank you matt30 for your help!!!
Hello,
I received my second Mi4C 16GB yesterday. It came with some unofficial "global stable" MIUI rom preinstalled (ordered from geekbuying).
I noticed the total capacity of the storage is different from the original Mi4C I bought a while ago (11.19GB vs. 11.31GB on the previous phone). I also noticed some other users and youtubers own phones with wrongly indexed total capacity of the storage as well. I briefly checked the partitions of the phone and it turned out the partition table is different from the stock one (aka the one with the capacity of 11.31GB). I suspect the reseller modified the partition table to be able to flash their own modified unofficial rom.
I've tried a few solutions, but nothing has worked for me so far (nothing reverted the userdata partition to its stock state as indexed by CPU-Z/Antutu).
1.) MiFlash with flash_all.bat script (tried a few fastboot roms) - doesn't work
2.) MiFlash with modified flash_all.bat script (with this line - fastboot %* flash partition "%~dp0images\gpt_both0.bin) - doesn't work
3.) MiPCSuite and flashing the latest chinese stable rom via it - doesn't work
4.) Some partition fix adb script I found on Hungarian message board - doesn't work
5.) flashing multilang rom via TWRP - obviously doesn't work
This is the original topic from xiaomi.eu:
hxxps://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/xiaomi-mi4c.142/
Left one - modified partition table, right one - proper partition table"hxxps://farm6.staticflickr.com/5612/30369274744_d51a097fde_b.jpg
Do you the proper way to return the partition table of the phone to its genuine state, please?
Out of interest, I would be interested to see both your phones running df (open a terminal, run 'su', and then when you have a root shell type 'df -h') so that I can see where your partitions are bloated.
I also have the issue, except to a greater degree : I have under 8gb in the data partition!

Hi, check this comparison:
hxxps://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5826/31305621321_0608b75a19_k.jpg
There is the exact same multilang MIUI 7 rom installed on both the phones.
I've seen some people on Chinese and Russian forums mentioning the same problem + a few other people responded on the local/eu miui forums.

Mine only has 9.4GB.
A shipped, bootloader-flashed official Firmware repartitions as necessary. All you have to do is flash an official rom (not the xiaomi.eu recovery-flashable roms but ACTUAL official roms flashed via fastboot). Im sure some of those would have a different partition table as per suited for ROM needs. Nothing to be alarmed of.

Doesn't work. I've tried flashing several different official Chinese fastboot roms via MiFlash - both the dev and stable ones - but the capacity of the storage remains the same.
A partial solution?

by opening twrp, going into format partitions, the advanced wipe this will destroy all data - nandroid it menu, then selecting the system partition and selecting format, then resize. I did the same thing for data and the partition gained ~3gbs! I'm not sure how reproducible this is, but it seems to work properly and stays cross-ROM
I know I didn't get the full 11.3G,but it worked somewhat...
Hope this helps you on your quest to downloading large files to your device!

Tested this, no need to wipe anything. Just resize it and you're good to go.
No data loss too.
I got 11.3GB after resizing. Thanks!

Can you describe the whole process step by step, please? What is the exact value as indexed by CPU-Z or the similar app? Is it 11.31 GB?
Jatsa - Boot into TWRP (I assume you have it)
Select the 'wipe' menu
Click advanced wipe
Tick the box that says system
Click resize partiton
One it is done, tick the box that says data
Click resize partition
Once done, press the back button until you reach the main menu
Click reboot
Choose system
Enjoy

From TWRP Wipe->Advanced Wipe-> check Data ->Repair or change Filesystem->Resize.
Done.
Glad to help.
Well, it doesn't work. The size of the partition remains still unchanged (11.19 instead of "proper" 11.31).
Maybe there are 2 variants.
100MB don't matter that much.
Exact size: 11856888.
