====== Filesystem Maintenance ======

===== Notes =====

  * Can only be done within TWRP Recovery either via built-in Terminal or over ADB
  * Ideal to do before a clean ROM flash, after an improper shutdown, and/or after configuring all apps/copying over all data

===== Quick-commands =====

==== ext4 ====

=== Encrypted ===

  * This expects ''/data'' and ''/cache'' to be ''ext4''
  * This expects ''/data'' to be encrypted
  * Boot TWRP, enter encryption password, and immediately run the following from a computer

  adb shell "umount '/sdcard' && umount '/cache' && umount '/data' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p41' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p26' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p21' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p1' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/dm-0' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p38' && mount '/system' && mount '/data' && mount '/cache' && mount '/firmware' && rm -Rf '/data/dalvik-cache' && fstrim -v '/system' && fstrim -v '/data' && fstrim -v '/cache' && fstrim -v '/firmware' && sync && umount '/system' && umount '/data' && umount '/cache' && umount '/firmware' && reboot"

=== Unencrypted ===

  * This expects ''/data'' and ''/cache'' to be ''ext4''
  * This expects ''/data'' to be unencrypted
  * Boot TWRP, enter encryption password, and immediately run the following from a computer

  adb shell "umount '/data' && umount '/cache' && umount '/sdcard' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p41' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p26' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p21' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p1' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p42' && e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p38' && mount '/system' && mount '/data' && mount '/cache' && mount '/firmware' && rm -Rf '/data/dalvik-cache' && fstrim -v '/system' && fstrim -v '/data' && fstrim -v '/cache' && fstrim -v '/firmware' && sync && umount '/system' && umount '/data' && umount '/cache' && umount '/firmware' && reboot"

===== Information =====

  * ''/dev/block/mmcblk0p41'' is ''/system''
  * ''/dev/block/mmcblk0p38'' is ''/cache''
  * ''/dev/block/mmcblk0p42'' is ''/data'' and ''/sdcard''
  * ''/dev/block/mmcblk0p1'' is ''/firmware''
  * All 5 partitions are ''ext4''

===== Unmount Partitions =====

  umount '/system'

  umount '/cache'

  umount '/data'

  umount '/sdcard'

  umount '/firmware'

==== AIO ====

****

  umount '/system' '/cache' '/data' '/sdcard' '/firmware'

===== ext4 Filesystem Maintenance =====

  e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p41'

  e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p38'

  e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p42'

  e2fsck -y -f -v '/dev/block/mmcblk0p1'

===== Mount Partitions =====

  mount '/system'

  mount '/data'

  mount '/cache'

  mount '/firmware'

==== AIO ====

****

  mount -a

===== Clear Dalvik/ART Cache =====

  adb shell

  mount '/data'

  rm -Rf '/data/dalvik-cache'

===== fstrim =====

  * If done immediately after booting TWRP, ''/data'' and ''/cache'' are already mounted, but ''/system'' and ''/firmware'' aren't

  adb shell

  mount '/system' && mount '/firmware'

  fstrim -v '/system' && fstrim -v '/data' && fstrim -v '/cache' && fstrim -v '/firmware' && sync

==== Quick-command ====

  * Run after booting into TWRP

  adb shell "mount -a || fstrim -v '/system' && fstrim -v '/data' && fstrim -v '/cache' && fstrim -v '/firmware' && sync"

===== Erase Everything =====

  * This **requires** a radio re-flash ((can use ''flash-base.sh'' from the latest [[#factory_image | Factory Image]]))
  * This does not erase the bootloader nor recovery

  sudo fastboot erase 'all'

===== Flash Base =====

  * Requires a Factory Image extracted to ''~/Downloads''

  sudo fastboot flash 'bootloader' ~/'Downloads/shamu-'*'/bootloader-shamu-moto-'*'.img' && sudo fastboot reboot-bootloader && sleep 5 && sudo fastboot flash 'radio' ~/'Downloads/shamu-'*'/radio-shamu-'*'.img' && sudo fastboot reboot-bootloader

====== Ideal Stack ======

  * As of: 2017/10/28

  * F2FS TWRP
  * LineageOS for easy microG + UnifiedNlp
  * FrancoKernel
  * microG
  * Magisk

  adb shell

  su

  pm disable 'com.android.email'

  pm disable 'com.google.android.apps.gcs'

****

  adb push ~/'Downloads/FastLacellsGenerator-master/lacells.db' '/storage/emulated/0/LocalGSMBackend/lacells.db.new'
