SUCCESS!!! I just got MIUI ICS booted on my Fassy! I'm getting a constant force close on com.android.phone though, but I'm working on it. Huge thanks to xboxfanj for the tips/advice. I really appreciate all your help.

I'll be releasing this as a beta as soon as I can get the force close problem fixed as well as verify calls/sms, etc are working.

Amazing...can't wait for the release and try it out.

Now, download the nexus s build from here http://bigota.d.miui.com/2.1.20/miui_NS_2.1.20_9273d58214_4.0.zip

Then deodex it in dsixdas kitchen. Then copy the deodexed app and framework folders and that should fix fcs and possibly other stuff.

For anyone experiencing constant Force Close errors, this may be caused by a filled /datadata partition.

Symptoms: Constant Force Closes

Verification: Access a command line (Terminal Emulator, ConnectBot, SSHd, etc) and run the following commands:

Gain root, if you don't have it already:
Code:
```
su
```
Run the following command to check the /data/data path.
Code:
```
ls -lha /data/data | grep data
```
If the above line has a d instead of an l for the first character, and/or the end of the line doesn't indicate a link pointing to /datadata, STOP! This means you don't have this problem, and you've probably run some other script or app that fixes this.
Code:
```
lrwxrwx--x  118 system   system      4.0K Feb  3 15:28 data --> /datadata
```
Check the disk utilization of the /datadata partition:
Code:
```
df -h /datadata
```
If Usage is at or near 100%, this is your problem.

Reason: For a reason I've not been able to find CyanogenMod partitions your device such that application data is stored on a 150MB partition....not very big. If you have a ton of apps, it's very easy to fill this up.

Thankfully the data is accessed through /data/data, which is just a symlink to /datadata. Since /data has plenty of space, we can just remove that symlink and replace it with the actual data.

Solution: Access a command line (Terminal Emulator, ConnectBot, SSHd, etc) and run the following:

Remove the symlink.
Code:
```
rm -f /data/data
```
Replace with a new directory.
Code:
```
mkdir /data/data
```
Copy the data.
Code:
```
cp -pR /datadata/* /data/data/
```

Reboot the phone, and your problem should be resolved. Since this applies to any device rurning CyanogenMod or CM-derivative (like MIUI), I may create a separate post to document this.

$ rm -f /data/data
rm: /data/data: is a directory
$ mkdir /data/data
mkdir: can't create directory '/data/data': File exists

Sounds like your /data/data isn't a link, but an actual directory. Could you show me the output of:

Code:

ls -lha /data | grep data

Dustin1980 · Feb 3, 2012

$ ls -lha /data | grep data
ls: can't open '/data': Permission denied
$

Thanks for your help.

You need to be root. You can just run su to gain root. Btw, is your device actually suffering from this issue, and is your /datadata partition full?

Dustin1980 · Feb 3, 2012

Currently it isn't full but that's because i don't half many apps on because when i get a few installed even if i move them to the sd my phone gets full and i have to remove something...they are lots of games i'd like to leave on the phone but can't because it takes too much space.

$ su
# ls -lha /data | grep data
drwxrwx--x 118 system system 4.0K Feb 3 15:28 data
#

Gotcha. I'd say avoid this unless it becomes a problem. I'm guessing the CM team has a reason for configuring it this way.

This means /data/data isn't a symbolic link, like normal, but a directory. It appears you should already be fine. I wonder if you haven't run one of the app2sd or similar scripts, as those may perform the same thing.

Dustin1980 · Feb 4, 2012

you know now that i think about it It may have been included in a supercharger script i ran...i thought it was all the apps i removed and the clearing of the cache that stopped the FC issues and it was going to come back...

Thanks for your help and thanks for helping the community

No problem. I'll update my Verification steps with this check.

Which of Ricks extended settings works best with 2.1.6? Is there any other way of getting rid of the carrier logo?
