8GB is the size of the emmc chip, but this is divided into several partitions - like recovery, boot, firmware and a few others. So that you can't use the fully 8GB is perfectly normal, and is the same for all phones.

Having the 10.1 stable and getting the reboots now as well. I haven't had them during the nightlies and I have the feeling, that they become more frequent. Will try to remember to do the log dump next time.

Before flashing of CM10.1.3 I checked the ZIP package, and noticed that the ROM is deodexed. Android Kitchen also says the same. But after flashing I checked /system/app folder on the phone and there are *.odex files. How is it possible?

Note: Flashed via TWRP recovery. There were no errors/problems during flash.

Sounds weird. Are you sure it's an official release? Where did you get it from?

Hi!

First of all thanks for this great ROM!

Got it from official site:
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/42550/cm-10.1.3-serranoltexx.zip
It is still on my external SD card. The size is: 174 480 692 bytes -> double checked: there are no *.odex files in the ZIP package. But they are under /system/app!

Except this weird thing the whole ROM works well.

Is it possible to deodex it using xUltimate or any other tool?

I suspect it might be leftovers from gapps in stock rom, if you didn't format system before flashing CM. You can probably just delete those odex files.

Wait, in the updater script there is format command. So the /system was 100% sure formatted. :confused:

I have an idea: Will get from phone the apk/odex files using "adb pull" and next try to deodex them.

Update:
Whatever, I successfully pulled apps, deodexed them using Android Kitchen and put them back to device using following commands:
Code:
$ su
# stop
# mount -o remount rw /system 
# rm /system/app/*.odex
# rm /system/framework/*.odex
# cp /sdcard/tmp/apps/* /system/app/
# cp /sdcard/tmp/framework/* /system/framework/
# mount -o remount ro /system
# reboot

SD card

This CyanogenMod is very good. I have had my phone a couple of months and just got round to installing this Custom ROM. Just a question, I can't seem to find a way to format my SD card. Is this a known issue?

Yep, this is a known issue. Folks are in charge of this, a fix is on the way as much as I know.

EDIT: There it is on CM 11 Nightly (Kit Kat 4.4.1)

Can someone help me think - I think I've majorly screwed up. I was trying to get Greenify to work so I installed SuperSU over Superuser. But I decided to uninstall (the clean installation) - how do I update the Superuser binary? Would a reinstallation of 10.1 work? It appears I still have root access however, I don't get any Superuser prompts.

storage and compass

Hello.

Yesterday i've flashed this rom and immediately 2.7 GB were occupied and I had only 2.7 GB free? Is this normal?
Another thing has to do with the compass, it’s not working! Is there another one with the same issue? Is there a fix?

Thanks in advance.


EDIT: For the compass, this results (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48000142&postcount=126)

Mates, try this:
1. Start some "Compass" app - see that it's frozen (do not close app or turn off screen).
2. Take phone and move your hand as if you want to write an infinity sign several times.
3. See that "arrow" in "Compass" start moving.
4. Exit app and start it again. Check that it worked or not.

Hi!

First of all, thank you @arco68! Very nice alpha like everyone else says. :)

I don't know if I've done something or I just don't know how to do it but is it possible to move apps from phone to the Sdcard?
Also, I bought a cheap S-view cover from china but the phone doesn't react when I open and closes the cover. Bad cover or is this because of Cyanogen?

Thanks!
I have the same requests as mentioned above! Please make them happen.
