Your link to the CM wiki states that the apps2ext solution was integrated into the framework, not a script that tricks the phone into thinking the ext is internal memory...

Here you have Firerat (no relation) providing a solution to the apps2ext problem, where "the base is from CM5":

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...p2sd-built-in/page__view__findpost__p__166163

Note that Firerat states that it is not perfect, but "better than scripted a2sd solutions" (read Darktremors)

Here is the xda Darktremors thread, with the title containing "Script" and "a2sd":

Ok. Thank you. :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Hi guys, thank you very much for all the useful information! So, as you say, it's a maintenance nightmare...does it means trouble when updating the rom? What are the risks? I'm gibbs search a little bit regarding this dark tremor...thank you!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Darktremor isn't the nightmare, the repartitioning trick is. I would recommend using Darktremor, and staying away from the fancy stuff, unless you are really confident about what you are doing...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Ahh ok, from what I saw it involves a bunch of options in the boot menu. I was doing the goddamn backup of the SD card, it took ages. Now I'm ready to start. It's a pity there isn't yet a partitioner that makes the partitions without erasing your data (kind of partition magic of sorts).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] momomok:
Isn't GParted able to do this?

Btw, if you don't want to play through recovery menu, go get S2E from Market, it is free and it works great IMO ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Sooo here I am again!

I'm not sure at all if this is working. After booting the first time (it took a looong time), I was greeted with a "welcome to Nexus One" home screen. I have lost all my data, apparently. Not very sure regarding that.

I'm also not very sure if this is working at all?

Let's see, I made a 1024MB Ext4 partition, inside the 16GB SD card. Now when I see Manage Applications, it shows me 136MB free...But I don't get it, wasn't I supposed to have more space?

The other possibility I'm thinking, it's just listing the internal memory space, while all the applications are in the SD Ext4 partition.

If that's the case, then if I install stuff, it won't be listed, and I won't be able to know how much space I have left, right?

I don't know, can anybody clarify this? Thank you!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
If you're using the DT script, you need to activate it by typing either "a2sd install" (apps only), or "a2sd cachesdreset" (apps and dalvik) into a terminal emulator (need to type "su" first, to get superuser rights).

To see better idea of the space allocations, use Titanium. It has a nice breakdown on the first page...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Yup, I typed the commands from the adb shell, which I reckon is the same. But now everything seems like a big loss in contacts and stuff.

I have a question: If I install a new rom (cyanogen nighties, I'm running), will I lose the DarkTremor script? And if I restore a full backup made with Clockworkmod?

I'll try to fight with Titanium backup, but for each app to restore I have to manually accept the installation...Seems a lil bit pain in the ass :P
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Are you sure your contacts are set to sync? You can lose that setting from nightly to nightly...

When updating between nightlies, I believe you can flash the nightly then the DT script and all should be good (I always wipe).

The DT settings etc will be backed up with CWM backup, so you can restore that and it will include the ext also.

If you buy Titanium Pro, you won't have that problem... xD
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] momomok:
Manage Applications only shows how much ROM space is left

If your really want to check the space usage, you could try Free Space or Titanium Backup from the market
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Great, thank you! Now it seems to be working. Still I have some crashes at start (amazon app store, and lookout, AFAIK).

Also, a doubt: When mounting the SD to be accessed through USB from the PC, can I still access the EXT4? Or do my apps get unreachable? I'm having some issues with some apps claiming not to be installed from the market, even when they are, but I didn't figure out the pattern. Clicking on install in the market will download the very same app, and will show it now as installed, without losing the data. So far, it gets changed, so it doesn't need to be repeated (with that same app at least). Weird.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Try the market fix in Titanium Backup. If that doesn't work, you can try long pressing the specific app from Titanium, and forcing the market link.

If that doesn't work, delete data from Google Services Framework, then from Market, and reboot...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Ok, I think it's behaving now. Thank you very much for your help guys!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Hm, I'm getting confused...System space keeps getting lower and lower. I have a warning signal of low space again :(

SD Ext is rather empty, but the "internal" partition is having only 19MB free. How can I check the apps that use that part/move them to the ext4 SD partition?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
What are you using to move your apps to SD?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
Nothing...I thought the script would do it by itself :?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
So you're using the script, and I presume you ran the "a2sd install" command, or one of the others?

DT isn't much better than Froyo at moving apps to sd, so don't expect too much from it. What it really is good for is moving your dalvik to sd, which will give you about 80mb more space. Try the "a2sd cachesdreset" command...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaDInDy:
If you have SD card class 4 or higher. I recommend D2SD script. It's Fast and Stable more A2SD.

[Galaxy 3 General] vleutmans:
Hi,

Currently i'm using kyrillos 5.5 (based on froyo 2.2 JPM).

I just want to share my experiences and things I did to get my phone running nicely.

- disable "sensor aiding" to get rid of 100% cpu-usage after exiting any GPS based application (also involved in camera crash). you find this setting in settings-'location and security'.

- with kyrillos rom 800 Mhz version, use setcpu or no-frills cpu governor to 'anything but conservative', so I chose (with setcpu) min.800mhz max.800mhz performance, and for screen-off profile 166-800 mhz on-demand governor. Cpu governor at conservative can stick your CPU at 83Mhz..which causes mayor lag as you can imagine.

It's assume it's not a Kyrillos issue, but fugumod (2.4 beta3) problem.

BTW somehow, the 800-800 Mhz. doesn't drain my battery much.

- I finally re-formatted my sd-card to fat32 (so no ext2 ext4 partitions anymore) to keep all memory caching/swapping in RAM and not to sd-card which could wear-out the sd-card in the end. I use class-2 card so could cause more lag because it's too slow for swap/cache/dalvik. Beware that you cannot install too many programs or you run out of memory..but hey do I need 50 games/apps on my phone ?

- I use zeam launcher as this launcher seems to use less memory (only 1 process too, not two as many other launchers). only disadvantage at this time is that auto-rotate doesn't follow your settings in phone, it's either on or off for zeam itself.

Ok I hope I help a lot of people with these tips/tricks.

If you have any additional tips/tricks, please reply so I can learn from it too :-)

Br.

[Galaxy 3 General] anant.0097:
That is some nice info...... I would like to add some myself....

For Battery:-

Disable data connection when not in use - drains battery like hell.

Disable Auto Sync - saves some processes and battery.

Brightness - lower screen brightness - the less brightness you keep the more the battery

The video player has it's own brightness so check that too.

Don't use task killers like ATK if you are a newbie and don't know much about system process..... if you kill all the process, some just start again as they are necessary.... instead use the stock task manager or watchdog.

Undervolting - ADVANCED USERS ONLY - please who know what they are doing can undervolt the cpu which increases the battery life by a noticeable margin.... for this you can use an app called pimp my cpu.

Stock Gallery - Spare from Using the Samsung stock gallery, it's a huge battery hog!

For Performance:-

APPS - VERY IMPORTANT - even though we have ext4 partion on sd card we do not have a super-phone that can handle 50 apps running in the background.... so keep passive and active multitasking to a minimum ;)

Tweaks - for increasing performance on our phone you can enable JIT, change file partitions, install overclocked fugumod (800 mHz), fugutweaks.

Widgets - well although widgets are fairly usable and state that application is not actually open but infact they have processes and too many widgets on your home screen can affect your phone's performance as these processes stay even when you are not on your homescreen.

Keep the phone memory reasonably free - i mean the phone storage....
[Galaxy 3 General] hodostamas:
- quick call end: settings/Accessibility/use power button to end call

- quick call pick-up: settings/call/all call/pick up a call with home button

- disable mobile data: long press power button/disable mobile data

- not for froyo but usefull: press more than 10 sec the power button-->hard phone restart

data connection for me, doesnt causing battery drain..
[Galaxy 3 General] anant.0097:
actually what i meant by data connection causing a huge drain was that it consumes more battery.

With all the specified things done i managed to squeeze a hell load of battery..... two days straight of heavy usage ........ sent around 500-600 messages.... talked for about six - seven hours..... and angry birds for 40 minutes before i got the low battery signal!.

addon to tips and tricks on froyo 2.2

Hi all,

I would like to add an already known setting to many and that is :

"switch on USB debug mode" in settings-applications-development.

This fixed for me a lot of frustration with navigon , when used in the car.

Normally after connecting power to the phone in my car, I got popup menu with choice of how to connect, like choice of mass storage, mediaplayer etc. I pressed the back button to get rid of it. Then I started Navigon which showed lot of lag and FC many times during a trip.

After setting usb debug, I don't get this choice menu anymore, and Navigon works like a charm.

Furthermore if I want to transfer data from PC to SD card I still can do this by selecting mass storage in the notification bar of the phone.

:-)

Playing a youtube HD trailer(720P) is smooth on RCMixHD v2.0.

Recording 720P however is NOT smooth, so if you play your recorded movie, it is not smooth of course. Maybe you mean that recording 720P is not smooth...?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lcwt121:
I didn't record 720P video after flashing the RCMix S v2.0 / Insertcoin v45 / Insertcoin 1.0.8 (all are A2SD+ version) ...... so, it's not relating to video recording ... I think.

Actually, I wanted to find out what happened and I flashed the Insertcoin 1.0.6 yesterday ... I found that the playback of 720P video is also not smooth (same as RCMix S v2.0 / Insertcoin v45 / Insertcoin 1.0.8). It looks like Insertcoin 1.0.5 playing 720P at 30fps but the newer ROMs playing 720P at 15fps.

I just want to know is it my own problem or the others suffer the same?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LVL91:
Videocodec compatibility problem?

Have you tried another videoplayer like Moboplayer or Rockplayer for instance? (I haven't seen you answering this question yet)

On RCMix S v2.0 a 720P youtube HD movie trailer(Movie: The Road)seems to play OK, but maybe this isn't the right thing to test since I know youtube 720P is nowhere a 720P blueray rip. I don't think 720P from youtube is that much compressed, thus less quality in most cases.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lcwt121:
Same problem with Moboplayer. And I also tried Insertcoin v44 and the playback also not smooth, too. Is it due to other factors such as the version of Radio?

as you can see in my signature i come from a desire hd as well. compared with the dhd the sgs2 is superior in almost all things:

WAY better screen (although some people have problems with yellowish tint, dead pixels, ...),

far more processing power,

better cam,

WAY better internal speaker and sound quality (you can use the speaker phone with almost no distortion with high volumes),

nice look and feel (first i feared the "plastic" look, but i got used to it and like it now),

much less weight,

to name only what comes to my mind!

so if you trust me, switch to the SGS2, you won't regret it!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzens:
Thank you people for your replies, as I too am seriously considering the upgrade.

I have heard a lot of positive things about the speaker.

The one thing, is music quality through headphones, compared to the DHD. I listen to a lot of music and love the SRS. I use PowerAMP, and understand you can use an equalizer as well.

Your thoughts on music quality through headphones?

Much appreciated
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daivik:
The headphones fit nicer in the ear, because they're the soft rubber (circular-squidgy) style, compared to my old HTC hard earphones with only a thin layer of foam for softness.

However the quality still isn't that good, but then again I am comparing to Bose in-ear headphones which I've gotten used to over the past year.

The quality compared with my iTouch playing a song bought from iTunes, is better. I didn't think it would be but playing Poppiholla - so it's got the bass, treble and a range of different sounds, is better. Of course, the improvement is barely noticeable, but one thing I really do like, is the fact at the top right of the player there's a 5.1 surround sound button. This actually works. I could hear the sound of the song change and it sounded really good. It felt as if it were coming from behind me.

So yes, the quality of sound through ear-phones is damn impressive. I just tested it now. (also if you're playing music, you can tap the home button or unlock the screen and a small widget/console/3 buttons slide in from the top making it easy to skip, rewind/go back or pause the music)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzens:
Thank you very much for the reply, I use a pair of Shure SE210's which I am very happy with. It was just that I had heard lots of comments about the speaker but little about the sound quality through a decent pair of head/earphones.

Thanks again
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daivik:
I can say that both are good. I was streaming off my NAS Box this morning. Sound quality from it was really good. I had it below half volume and the speaker was a surprisingly good quality, and I was listening to rock (which if I tried to do the same on my Desire, would be very distorted)

Of course the loud speaker comes down to a fair bit of personal opinion, the fact that is on the back, but it's on the bottom of the back - the slightly thicker bit - which is in contact with the surface you put it on. I think it's the sound bouncing back off the surface that actually creates a good sound. Used it on a wooden table and table cloth and the sound quality was good on both.
