Hi Mitre.
I'm back for a while, bloody thing.
I have been looking around the data folder to see what can be deleted.
Still looking.
I think i's the boot.img I need I think. Then again mate. I think you're the expert, not me

ah ok i get it now so you was just now trying to free up space in /data so you can push the cpio file to there
and got a file not found
edit i can make the zip but what img are we trying to get on boot.img i think is the best bet
i think maybe try to free up data a little first to see if we can push the cpio file

not sure on boot.img - maybe cwm5 recovery image (not too sure tbh) I will leave that with you Mitre

@buleeagle69 - to free up space try this, from a fresh cmd promt:-

Code: Select all

adb shell

su

cd data/app/

ls



now you can see a list of apps - pick one that seems big in size, then do this: rm name-of-.apk

eg if there was com.adobe.flashplayer-1.apk in the list, you would do this

Code: Select all

rm com.adobe.flashplayer-1.apk


Hope I have explained that, I am sure you get what I mean.

[Mitre]

Code: Select all

rm /data/data/app/com.adobe.flashplayer-1.apk

this would be the correct code to remove flashpler apk if indeed it is on th device

According to this /data/app is empty ?

[Mitre]

my only worry is that you would still have a corrupt busybox on your system.img
so may need to do both or carry on with this for a while to try give you CWM5 and then flash my clean 2.3

[blueeagle69]

Update. /data/data is empty too?

[Charlie]

WTF - I have just done those commands on my Excel, and I get a list of apps and I was able to remove apps, it does seem that partition /data/ is not there and/or corrupt on yours buleeagle69.

@Mitre - maybe the zip needs to be of /data/

This is so nuts

[blueeagle69]

I just listed my /data folder and it shows the following

app-private
misc
install-recovery.sh (I managed to push this)
data
property
lost+found
camera
dontpanic
local
app
dalvik-cache

But everything seems to be empty. Except Dalvik-cache and lost+found

[Mitre]

what i will do is make 2 zips for you boot and system and i will pm the link no ete but should be tonight
meantime
in your list
data should have apps in it
the rest could be empty cos you factory reset

[blueeagle69]

Thanks Mitre & Charlie
LS Data shows above, but that is about it.
In /data/Misc I actually get something

lbluetoothd
dhcp
bluetooth
