You cannot do it like that. It will still store in the same spot. Its like a shourtcut on your desktop computer. The best thing is an app that switches internal and external space. Its on the app store, internal 2 external or something like that. I tried it, but it made both internat and external the internal, so it was pointless. It could work for you, though. Try it.

How do you submit a request to add a forum section for this device? It would help it get recognized!

There was a forum thread for requesting new device forums. Unfortunately, we need to show lots of development, kinda hard when we have no 100% without a doubt method of restoring our devices should things go wrong, as they normally do when first starting out.

Also that app is garbage. Didn't work properly for me. And that one that binds different directories - Directory Bind, methinks- was too confusing.

i currently trying to build our kernel from samsung sources.

can someone try this please : adb pull /proc/config.gz and send me that file ?

it will download a file named config.gz into the directory where you wrote the command.

i made it on my old HTC Desire, and its working fine, but of course, i can't use that file

it's just to grab the config file from a working kernel

i can't do it because like you know, my phone is dead

Coming from a Unix/Linux background, i'm pretty sure my method would work because FSTAB is NOT a shortcut, it is the way Linux mounts the partitions and on my server computer if i want my 2nd drive mounted to /mnt/hot_dang_diggity i just write it in FSTAB which tells the system that this disk is accessible there. The same thing can be made on android, and no i won't use some ready-made app to do something simple like editing a text file (you probably used it because you don't even understand how FSTAB work don't you ?) ;)

EDIT: either that or you know WAY more than i do..

Hopefully now we can get an insecure kernel or maybe even an overclock!

OK. Two choice now.

You did not install adb device driver on your computer or
usb debugging is not enabled in developper section of the parameters

As an example, on my HTC Desire, i got this...

Well, you got it now from another user, but you should have caught when I said "Terminal Emulator". As in, directly from the phone. I really should stay away from stuff like this when I have a mind block due to sickness; clearly I have no idea what I'm doing. I am trying to help though.

This phone is really popular in my small town. I know 4 people that got this phone shortly after me. They are all jealous of my custom transition animations LOL :) I mixed a bunch of animations together and the result was good.

Hey guys, any good android launchers out there that can make my phone faster?

Technically speaking, a launcher can't make your phone faster, however a good launcher can have minimized RAM consumption, therefore making your phone seem more smooth as a result of free RAM (your phone doesn't have to call out to other parts to free RAM when there is already a lot of free RAM). I recommend that you use Smart Launcher if you want a basic yet eyecandy launcher. Another good one would be Nova Launcher, or even the CM9 Trebuchet Launcher! (Trebuchet Launcher worked on my Ace II X).

Bro,
there's nothing to be proud to have a GT-S7560M, Samsung don't even support the device itself.. Can they just push android 4.2 update... -_-
From a Mad costumer loll :crying:

Be patient. We don't need Samsung. Once my phone is unbricked, I can build a ROM. Though I have no experience, it's called trying that makes a developer. We all have the potential, the opportunity. But we all just need to use it. Even if Samsung did release an update, I don't think that they'd jump us straight to 4.2. Heck I don't think any Samsung Android devices even have official 4.2 at the moment. Anyways we have a better chance getting a ROM from one of us on this thread than from Samsung. Samsung is literally hopeless . The phone is good (once bloatware is removed of course) but the support is terrible. Luckily I have a good year and a half left with this phone (until my contract expires) and then my next phone is gonna be 2014's new Nexus.

    I'm leaving for vacation tomorrow, so I won't be able to provide you guys with a build of OmniROM 5.0 before the end of the year. I would love to just release the alpha build out into the wild, but literally nothing is working (no audio, no WiFi, some force closes) so I would rather wait until I fix up a few of the issues. Fortunately, I do have a bit of a treat for you. I have a near-perfect build of OmniROM 4.4.4 for you. By near-perfect, I mean that everything is working except for Bluetooth, full camera resolution, and rendering images in native Chromium webview. Everything else should be working. I don't think that there are any other significant changes in this build compared to the previous one I uploaded back in October. If I have time to work on OmniROM 4.4.4 in the coming new year though, I will try to get things working nicely with ION. For now, you can download the new build of OmniROM 4.4.4 here. Happy holidays and have a great new year! Long live the Ace II X!

    How to root the GT-S7560 Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 X

    Okay so I rooted the GT-S7560 or the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 X using the Duos method mentioned in this thread. This phone is showing up everywhere in Canada right now through the usual channels and I wanted to clarify the process a bit for others who stumble upon this thread. I have attached a zip file containing the files I used and a word doc with instructions. It's the same as the Galaxy Duos except for entering recovery I could not figure out the button configuration to do it so I used ADB and sent the reboot recovery command. I later learned the vol button is a rocker and to press the center of the vol button the power and home all at the same time to enter recovery.

    I seek no credit, just trying to make it easier for the next.

    I have tested root on a couple of apps and everything seems to working great with no issues.

    BA2X 2.0 release 2!

    There comes a time, when people still on stock, are left out on the awesomeness of a slightly newer kernel version. Luckily, BA2X 2.0 has come to the rescue - it's been patched up to Linux kernel version 3.0.31, so it's consistent with CM. I've decided to make the default max frequency set as 1152 MHz, just because I don't feel like making custom frequencies for many different people. I think the most common wall that people hit with CPU frequencies is 1200 MHz, so I've lowered it just a smidge before that. If anyone faces any problems, let me know. I'll be uploading the updated sources to Github shortly, so you can indulge in them if you're that type of person. Besides a newer kernel version, there are a few other little changes to bring it more in line with the CM10.2 version of BA2X 2.0. Most notably, the GPU has been given the overclock treatment - there are 3 GPU frequencies for the system to throttle through - 100 MHz, 200 MHz, and 300 MHz. Battery life shouldn't be too bad, in fact it should/might be a bit better. You can download BA2X 2.0_r2 here. And if you don't like it, you can uninstall it using this flashable zip. The uninstall package installs the stock kernel and modules from the latest Canadian 'NA5 firmware so if you are having any issues even after installing the uninstall package, take the appropriate boot.img and /system/lib/modules folder from a ROM that works fine for you.

    I don't know why, but I seem to only get AnTuTu benchmark scores of around 4700. It might be because I lowered the minimum GPU clock speed to 100 MHz. Or it might just be that I have too many resource-hogging apps installed :p Just for safe-keeping, you can download the previous release of BA2X 2.0 here. Can someone post their AnTuTu scores on BA2X 2.0_r2?

    The next release of BA2X 2.0 will probably include something drastic new change, in a good way, because I cannot think of any other little modifications to do to the kernel source, so I'll have to try some bigger things. I don't want to be a downer if I can't deliver but personally, I wouldn't mind BLN, user-definable GPU clocking, f2fs support, and another kernel version upgrade would be nice too. I'll try my best when the time comes, and I'll see what I can whip up to make an Even Better Ace 2 X kernel... :D

    EDIT - The above download link is for BA2X 2.0_r2 with a maximum clock of 1152 MHz. Other frequencies can be downloaded below:
    1114 MHz
    1209 MHz
    1267 MHz
    1305 MHz
    19
    BA2X 2.0_r1

    The time has come... for the successor of SeannyM's BA2X kernels! BA2X 2.0 is based off of SeannyM's BA2X source, which is in turn based off of stock source, so BA2X 2.0 is like the grandchild of Grandpa Sammy. Don't know why, but I feel the need to keep that last sentence. Anyways, included in BA2X 2.0 is the following:
    • More CPU governors and schedulers
      - Added SavagedZen, InteractiveX, lulzactive governors
      - Added deadline scheduler (it was actually disabled in the kernel source, so I enabled it)
    • Disabled Loadable Kernel Module Authentication (lkmauth)
    • Frandom entropy generator module enabled on boot (in init.rc)
    • Vsync enabled (in init.rc)
    • USB Mass Storage enabled
    • Built with Sabermod 4.7.4 GCC toolchain = super smooth w. optimization
    You can download it here. I've only made a version clocked at 1.21 GHz for now because I think that's before the "wall" that most people hit. You may request an alternate frequency, but I may only make it for you when I have time (I won't go out of my way unless you're requesting a lower frequency because your device won't boot with this frequency). Happy holidays! BTW, Mod Pack II X v0.6.2 is out now too! I suppose I'm going to take up BA2X as a new project for this device alongside Mod Pack II X. I've got plenty more to do for both, and I think I might try building some ROMs in the new year...

    NOTE: THE DOWNLOAD LINK ABOVE IS FOR STOCK ROM. IF YOU WISH TO USE BA2X 2.0 FOR CYANOGENMOD (10.2/11 and maybe 10.1), DOWNLOAD THIS PACKAGE AND INSTALL IT VIA CWM.

    EDIT - I will put up a link for BA2X 2.0 for CM as soon as I get to making a working one, which requires that I find a suitable toolchain version. I'm a human being, so don't expect me to feel like pumping out stuff all the time.
