roosh problem
 

i didn't realise how inportant installing roosh was untill i needed it!!

here is my problem

yesterday my phone started playing up, so did a bit of digging to find my root is full 100%!!!

app manager will not work!! cant install rootsh

can not uninstall programs to free mem

what do i do?

Re: roosh problem
 

I would re flash and start from scratch...

Re: roosh problem
 

Try rebooting first. That automagically frees some space sometimes. (There was a thread on that at some point, but it was tl;dr for me, since I knew what to do about it anyway (although not why it happens))

having problems tring to flash too!!! is that my last resort??

when i tryed to flash is came back to me %M and stopped!

Re: roosh problem
 

Place the file in the same directory as flasher
C:\Program Files\Maemo\Flasher3.5\
and type the name of the file YOU downloaded.
Use tab to complete filename (example RX(TAB))

Re: roosh problem
 

thanks for that i found a tip to change the file name just to os.bin to avoid a miss types.

however over one wall to hit another!!!

cannot get USB to be reconised (windows 7 64bit) also tryed vmwear in XP..

now it says waiting for USB device

Re: roosh problem
 

The simplest thing would to try on an XP or Linux machine if you have one available. If not, it might help if you tell us what flashing guide you're following.

Btw...

Turn off the light,
take a deep breath and relax.

You will be fine as soon as you locate the right hoops to jump through.

Re: roosh problem
 

turn of phone. hold the u key down and insert usb while holding down u key. but both 7 and xp say instaling device and then device unpluged.

Re: roosh problem
 

Windows says device unplugged, or the flasher program says it?

Re: roosh problem
 

sorted!! held the power off key untill it piped. then pluged back in and flashed in xp under vmwear. ;-) feww

Re: roosh problem
 

Good good!

Now go convince someone that the root partition is too small.

Re: roosh problem
 

It was while I was following that particular wiki that I ended up having to reflash my device last week.

The root partition is too small. (Or the wiki would not have existed in the first place.)
