Phone SD card mounts to /dev/sdh (not /dev/sdh1)

I got a new Android phone (<3) the Samsung i7500. Its internal and external SD cards mount to /dev/sdh and /dev/sdi respectively. I found out with dmesg:
scsi8 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usb-storage: device found at 7
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
scsi 8:0:0:0: Direct-Access Samsung SAMSUNG Android Mass PQ: 0 ANSI: 2
sd 8:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg8 type 0
scsi 8:0:0:1: Direct-Access Samsung SAMSUNG Android Mass PQ: 0 ANSI: 2
sd 8:0:0:1: Attached scsi generic sg9 type 0
sd 8:0:0:0: [sdh] Attached SCSI removable disk
sd 8:0:0:1: [sdi] Attached SCSI removable disk
usb-storage: device scan complete
And fdisk doesn't list them. And these are actual partitions, not disks. I mounted them, and they have the stuff I'm looking for. Why is it like this? One bad thing about this is that fdisk -l doesn't list them, and I have to use dmesg to look at where they pop up each time. That's rather unnecessary IMO.

I suppose that the filesystem could have been written to the raw device and not to a partition. This is fine as long as you don't need multiple filesystems on one device (i.e. multiple partitions).

[solved] Consoles on /dev/vc/* not /dev/tty* after upgrade to 2.6.31

Dear all,
After upgrading to 2.6.31 from testing, I am finding that the virtual consoles are now in /dev/vc/*, and not in /dev/tty*. This breaks initscripts and suspend to disk.
According to a news post a while back (http://www.archlinux.org/news/454/) the change from /dev/vc/* -> /dev/tty* was made in order to comply with kernel documentation, so I am assuming this reversion is unintentional.
Anybody else having this problem?

Right, I worked it out. There were some files in /etc/udev/rules.d that no longer belonged to any package. After moving these files to a different directory, console device names were back at /dev/tty*.

I am so confused. I am thinking about buying an iPhone 4S but I want to use those card things that you can put the code in for the phone is this possible? I'm not talking about the 50$ unlimited card just the regular 20$ cards that hold mins and texts...

As far as I know there is no US cell carrier that allows pay as you go with an iPhone. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone 4S at an Apple Store and try it with a non-supported carrier.

You just made a very expensive mistake, especially if you can't return the phone.

I can't redeem my iTunes gift card, my phone is un activated, help desk has not helped. What does it mean my phone is un activated and how can I redeem my gift card for my 5c living I. The Caribbean

There isn't a phone number for iTunes Support.

If you have a credit card on your account then its details have to complete - and asking for their details is also a way of checking that you have a valid billing address in that country. As long as you are buying content for yourself and not trying to gift content (you can't use your balance for gifting) then the purchase price (plus any applicable taxes) should be deducted from your balance. If it's not then you contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

/dev/shm not mounted /dev busy

Recently I was trying out a boot disk I had made, and basically, I switched it off several times due to it booting the completely wrong kernel.
Now, I'm getting to the stage "Checking File systems" and then comes up [Failed]. I then get a message saying Reboot required, and that it will reboot in 15 seconds, just a few seconds before it reboots I get "/dev/shm not mounted, /dev busy" or something similar.
I've booted up my sysresccd, ran "fsck.ext4 -fcv /dev/sda2" to force a check and scan for any bad blocks, it came up clean, then I rebooted and got the same error, so I copied the kernel and system.map over to /boot to make sure there's no corruption and reinstalled initscripts and util-linux-ng, rebooted, same error.
Tried different kernels, I've checked fstab and menu.lst, no problems there, so I still don't get why I still get the same problem.
Anybody know of any fix other than reinstalling arch?
EDIT: Editing /etc/rc.sysinit and commenting out the fsck part made it work, finding out why fsck failed now.

Where did you buy this unlocked phone?

Ordering a phone at retail price from the site, not eligible for upgrade

I am planning to pay retail for the iPhone once it becomes available for pre-order (judge me as you wish) but I have never ordered a phone from the website before, upgrade or not. I am not the account holder, that is under my mom's account on the website. Here are my questions -
1. Am I given the option to pay for the phone with any credit/debit card or must it be the one associated with the monthly bill?
2. When I go to upgrade the phone it says upgrade is not available on any of the lines (which is why I am paying retail) - does it still allow me to select the phone and then take me to the next page and show that I must pay retail and then I start the checkout process?
3. Must the purchase be done on the account holder's account?
4. Will the four digit Billing Code be needed to purchase the phone? What other information from the account holder is needed?

I am not the account holder, that is under my mom's account on the website. Here are my questions -
1. Am I given the option to pay for the phone with any credit/debit card or must it be the one associated with the monthly bill? You can pay with any method you choose - immediately with any card, or add it to the bill (if qualified to do so).
2. When I go to upgrade the phone it says upgrade is not available on any of the lines (which is why I am paying retail) - does it still allow me to select the phone and then take me to the next page and show that I must pay retail and then I start the checkout process? Yes, it will only give you full retail pricing options. However, I have heard/read somewhere that initially, pre-orders for the iPhone will ONLY be available to those who are currently upgrade eligible. We'll have to wait and see...
3. Must the purchase be done on the account holder's account? I believe so, or you must be an account manager to be able to do anything that affects the plan, billing, etc.
4. Will the four digit Billing Code be needed to purchase the phone? What other information from the account holder is needed? I don't know the answer to these - and it may be a moot point anyway if you are not currently upgrade eligible. You may need to wait till the release date to try and order, rather than do a pre-order.

Can I use my new 4gs on a line different then the one it was upgraded on. I have many phones on my account. I am not eligible for upgrade but I had to buy two new phones for others. Can I give one of them my old iPhone 4 and take the 4gs.?

Yes.
Just call your provider and tell them what you want and they will help you get it done properly.

HT1918 I cancelled a payment through PayPal. How do I update the payment for that charge? I looked at my payment information and it has my credit card information. I'm not sure where to update the PayPal part of payment.

Hi Xellana, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I'm looking for information and pricing on possibly upgrading the processor from the PowerPC to Intel.
While anything is possible if you had enough money... NOPE, you can't change the CPUs to Intel, nor can you get any faster PPC upgrades for it. It'd be far cheaper to buy a new IntelMac than to replace everything inside the G5, and I mean just about everything, then figure out how to machine the case & such to mount Intel Logic Board, Graphic Card & such.
Sorry.

Is the English sim from the original carrier as that is usually the message you get with a carrier locked phone.

I am trying to send photos to the cloud from my phone to my iPad but they are not appearing in the stream. I have read the instructions and I think I am doing it right or am I missing a part of the process?

HI,
Have you done this before ? And if so, is photo stream turned on on your iphone and ipad. and as Alfred DeRose pointed out they must both on the same icloud account.
If you're new to this, you might want to do some research. Photo stream is different from camera roll and albums. Many have been on this sight looking for their photos stored in icloud after restore, etc. and they're not there. Also, after thirty days icloud deletes your photos from photo stream.
So if you're not aware, you might want to google your question. We're using the camera connection kit soon and I am learning about it. From all I've read, I'm also not the biggest icloud fan. I use dropbox. We plan to put photos taken on ipad with a camera/iphones into albums on the ipad. We'll keep all on the sd card until (and after) they can be uploaded to a computer.
An example of an article we can learn from -

Hope this helps.

I have purchased Iphone 4 from US and its not having sim in it and rt now when i have updated this to io5 ,it is showing "sim card inserted in iphone is not supported" and i am not able access aything."

I have purchased Iphone 4 from US and its not having sim in it and rt now when i have updated this to io5 ,it is showing "sim card inserted in iphone is not supported" and i am not able access aything."
Earlier i was able to use all application in this using IOS 5.0.1.
I have format it and after that i am not able to use it.
How to restore my itunes to 5.0.1???

Well, welcome to the world of "hacked" phones. If your purchase was from the US, you obviously purchased an iPhone that is locked to a US carrier. The iPhone must have been jailbroken and unlocked via software to accommodate your foreign SIM card. Now that you have updated the phone, it is locked back to the US carrier. Only the carrier can authorize Apple to unlock the iPhone and none of the US carriers will unlock the iPhones. Best suggestion is to sell the phone and obtain a factory unlocked version directly from the Apple store.
To answer your other question, there is not a supported method to downgrade iOS.

Save an image file in my phone/ memory-card memory.

Hi everyone,
I want to save a file (an image file) in my phone/ memory-card memory.
i've infact captured it from camera and now want to save in the memory not in the RecordStore.
What should i do ?
Please help me.
Thanks in advance

hi,
You will need the pda optional package jsr75 for file connection. Then create a byte vector from the image and then write the bytes to the location
byte[] bytes = ... // from input stream
String filePath = "file:///c:/"+aFileName;
          System.out.println(filePath);
          OutputStream os = null;
          FileConnection fc = null;
          try {
               fc = (FileConnection)Connector.open(filePath);
               if(!fc.exists()){
                    fc.create();
               os = fc.openOutputStream();
               for(int i = 0;i< bytes.length;i++){
                    os.write(bytes);
          } catch (IOException e) {
               throw new IOException();
          }finally{
               if(os != null)
                    os.close();
               if(fc != null)
                    fc.close();
