I ended up reverting back due to losing the usb ports and incompatibility with playing the hd wmv files I wanted large file support for in the first place. If anyone wants to revert and neglected to pull a backup copy of the original vold, I can upload mine.

ya i need orignal vold shouldve done that first. Maybe possible to use a router with hard drive for network storage so we can use network storage i know thats was a work around with the ps3 damn sony and their fat32 usage

Tolchuk maybe we can go into recovery do a system recovery and start over would that restore the old vold? and is it safe wont mess up should just restore with the root but without the files that we pushed after we did root

I'm not sure if it would restore the vold or not. I got mine working like normal by doing these steps:

You can download my original vold file here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/62706442/vold (right-click and "save link as". If it saves as a text file, you'll have to remove the .txt extension) I'll re-up as a zip file if necessary. * zip here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/62706442/vold.zip

To revert back:

1) Add this line back into your vold.fstab:

/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:0d.1/usb2/2-1/2-1.1 /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:0d.1/usb2/2-1/2-1.2 /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:0d.1/usb2/2-1/2-1.3

2) connect to your gtv with adb

adb connect "gtv ip address"

3) Push original vold.fstab (or the one you added the lines back to)

adb push vold.fstab /etc/vold.fstab

4) Push original vold

adb push vold /system/bin/vold

5) Reset permissions on the original vold from adb shell
adb shell (you will get the "#" when you are in shell)
chmod 755 /system/bin/vold
chown root.shell /system/bin/vold

I removed all of the files I pushed for the ntsf using the "rm" command in shell

For example, from shell (#):
rm /usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g

But it's probably not necessary. Just wanted to get back to the original in case a proper ntfs hack ever comes out.

Let me know if you have any trouble with these instructions.

I just realized that the NSZ-GT1 does not support NTFS usb drives. That really is very short sighted on Sony's part. Since I was too late for the Root, I SOL. :(
