[android-beginners] is my sd card full?

2010-03-25 Thread Xi Shen
hi,

i am using htc g1, with openeclair 1.2.1. i am using a very old sd
card, it only has 128mb space, but i do not want to buy a new one.
today, i found i cannot install new applications to my phone. after
the d/l, the installation process failed, and says insufficient space.

i partitioned my sd into 2 partitions, 1 vfat, 1 linux swap. and i
activated swap.

in the setting menu, i see the following phone storage information:

sd card: total 62.58mb, available 62.56mb
sd card secondary: total 90mb, available 12.29mb
internal phone storage: 74。18mb

it looks like my sd card space is not used, and the secondary sd is
almost used up. what is a secondary sd?

how to fix this problem. it does not seem like i need to buy a new and
larger sd card.

 Apps do not install to the SD card, they're installed to the phone directly,
 so you need more space on your actual space. Apps require 2 or 4 times as
 much space as their actual size to install (can't remember which it is), so
 if you only have 18MB of phone space and you try to install, say, a 6MB app,
 it might not install as it might require 24MB of free space.
 Check the size of the app you're trying to install. Ultimately, you'll have
 to delete something else to make room.
 You can try deleting a smaller app to make just enough room, installing the
 one you want now, then re-installing the first one again since it won't
 require as much space to install.


i am pretty sure i were able to install many apps on my g1. but i
reset my phone, and re-flash my phone with openeclair 1.2.1 (it was
openclair 1.2.1, i just redo it). now, i cannot install new apps.

2010-03-08 Thread Xi Shen
Hi,

I just upgraded to OE 1.2.1 mod, and found the usb internet tethering does
not work. On my linux, ifconfig -a does not show the usb0 interface. It was
working when I was CM mod.
