e2fsck on Android phone

Hi,

Does e2fsck works for Android phones?

Otherwise, which alternative does I have?

Hi,

Maybe best served by posting at Android Forum

Have fun & enjoy!
:hattip:

I tried to post a thread on androidquestions.org, but there's nobody who wants to answer.
I can't even find my own postings, there's nothing!

I can't mount the partition, or do a data recovery, because, there's noting using lsblk!

How to show this partition?

I already installed libmtp, mtpfs, etc, but mtp-detect and mtp-connect isn't working for me.

There's also an usb entry for the phone!

Code:

$ lsusb | egrep -i 'SAMSUNG'

Bus 003 Device 005: ID 04e8:6860 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd Galaxy (MTP)

But what to do now?

Code:

$ mtp-detect

libmtp version: 1.1.12



Listing raw device(s)

Device 0 (VID=04e8 and PID=6860) is a Samsung Galaxy models (MTP).

  Found 1 device(s):

  Samsung: Galaxy models (MTP) (04e8:6860) @ bus 3, dev 5

Attempting to connect device(s)

ignoring libusb_claim_interface() = -6PTP_ERROR_IO: failed to open session, trying again after resetting USB interface

LIBMTP libusb: Attempt to reset device

ignoring libusb_claim_interface() = -6LIBMTP PANIC: failed to open session on second attempt

Unable to open raw device 0

OK.

I would say it is possible to do a file check on some portion of a phone but my guess is you'd have to boot to some alternate distro on it or some one of a kind android.

I guess the next best answer might be to look over at Cygenomod and see if they could do such a task. They would be the ones I'd suspect that have the knowledge for that task.
