[Q] Mounting internal memory in recovery topic

I successfully ported TWRP for my OT-6012X with almost all functions working but i have one problem. TWRP need /emmc (internal memory to store settings, etc) but I am unable to find method to mount internal memory because my device have no dedicated partition for internal memory but uses folder on of mmcblk0p8 (/data/media/) instead.

My NAND is EMMC and here are device emulators from android:

dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.0/mmc_host
dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_host

But in recovery all I could mount is here, you will spot there is no any emulated drives :(

Code:

Here is an idea: How about to create some script which will mount /data and create symlink /emmc -> /data/media/ just to get rid of error messages from TWRP which appears each time TWRP start (while trying to load/save config, etc...)

Question: How can i create script which will start automatic as TWRP load to mount and create that symbolic link? Is there any trick like init.d or so? Can i put my code in init.rc? Any suggestions?

[Q] How can i change mounting position in a rom?? topic

Hi all!

I'm having some problems with the porting of a rom, my phone is a clone of the phone from which i'm taking the rom (My phone is NGM Legend 2 and the original is Blu Vivo 4.3) the only thing which is really different are the mounting positions of the internal memory.
In Blu Vivo 4.3 the system partition is mounted on /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 and the data partition is on /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 while in the mine they are mounted on /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 and /dev/block/mmcblk0p6.
I changed them in the updater-script so i'm able to install the rom, but i had to replace the boot.img with the one from my rom because the phone wasn't booting up, but i can't install any app from google play store (error 110) and any apk ("app not installed" error).
I would like to know if the problem are the mounting positions and if there is a way to fix this!

Thank you!

[Q] Mounting NTFS partition fails. topic

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (n900a).

I was able to attach external hard drives formated with ntfs filesystem to my previous phone the At&t Note 2 (SGH-i317) without difficulty. Using an OTG cable after installing Paragon ntfs & hps+. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....mounter&hl=en

I have just recently upgraded to the n900a and I have discovered that while Paragon ntfs/hps+ driver can see ntfs drives, it cannot mount them. So I installed another application called Roehsoft's Partition toolkit https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...t.ptk.sd&hl=en which also has the ability to see ntfs/hps filesystems.

Roehsoft's partition toolkit immediately sees the drive but when I attempt to mount it gives me the following error message.

ERROR; ntfs-3g-mount: mount failed: Permission denied

Is this caused by Knox or SELinux kernel enforcing?

I suspect it's the later because search results seem to point to Linux issues.

Can anyone help?

[Q] PACman,USB Not Mounting ? topic

[Q] HTC Rezound, after mounting SDcard, media on sdcard not showing up topic

Hi guys. i took the sdcard out and loaded more mp3's into it as i have in the past. i put it back into the Rezound and turned the phone on. then i "mount sd card" in settings. but the music and the pictures on the sdcard are not appearing, even though the phone shows it being mounted with the space available.

i've double checked and the data on the sdcard is good. it was working fine until i pulled it out and uploaded more mp3's on it. now the phone knows there is a sdcard in it, but the music app and camera/gallery apps are only showing files from the internal memory.

phone is rooted, i've frozen some apps and stuff with titanium backup, but i haven't changed anything recently, and it was working fine until now.

THANK YOU in advance!!!
