Just boot into recovery and flash the script. It will move the dalvik to your internal memory and you will notice an increase in speed, but the increase is minimal *in my experience*. Others have noticed a significant speed increase. You do not need to reflash Synergy and then run the script. Take care.

[EVO 4G Android Development] rlh82:
Excellent - I was hoping it was that simple!
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
'in my experience' is a good way to put that. It's entirely dependent on the phone and how you use it.

If you have a few apps, it probably won't matter.

Likewise if your phone is running fine with no lag, it won't matter.

However if you DO have a lot of apps, or if your phone is slow, moving Dalvik back to internal is a good idea...speeds it up and gets rid of the lag. Also flashing DT (DarkTremor) from synergy updater gives you various options zipalign on boot, (which Myn says shouldn't be necessary, but won't hurt anything to use), swap on/off, memory settings, etc. It's all a matter of preference. if things are working well enough and you don't care about tweaking stuff, leave it as-is. Otherwise flash it and see.

Nandroid your setup, flash it, and let it reboot itself a couple of times (I believe it reboots twice after the first flash, if I remember right) and see how it goes. If you hate it or it makes things worse, restore.

And you don't have to reflash Synergy...you can flash dta2sd anytime...it has absolutely no impact on the ROM aside from changing the way your a2sd works. Zero risk, zero impact. (Amend zero risk to say .0000001% risk...I've never seen it screw anything up but nothing's perfect).
[EVO 4G Android Development] rlh82:
Thanks for the details! I just flashed it, and am now in the first reboot cycle. I have a moderate number of apps (a lot of free games from amazon that I never use), and overall my RC2 installation has been amazingly fast after the full wipe and partitioning process. I'll post back later and let folks know whether or not I'm seeing any speed improvements.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Good deal. Looking forward to your results. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] corynat:
Is there a combination of rosie mods that will give me stock buttons and no landscape? They overwrite each other, so I either get no landscape with semi-transparent or stock but with landscape. I am probably missing something.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rlh82:
Alright, so I think it only reloaded itself once, though I wasn't giving my phone 100% of my attention. It definitely installed, as my internal memory was cut roughly in half, which I assume is the result of migrating the dalvik over.

So far performance is noticeably better, but not notably, if that makes any sense. It definitely shaved maybe a tenth of a second off of the load time of my apps, but the difference isn't huge. I saw a MUCH bigger improvement after doing a 100% clean install of RC2.

With that said, though, I'm glad I did it, as this gets my app launch time right up to the edge of nearly-instantaneous. It's worth losing the internal space to dalvik, but of course only if you've partitioned your SD card to take advantage of any a2sd script.

Verdict: Success!
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
If you haven't partitioned your SD card Dalvik is internal anyhow and it wouldn't matter. :)

That's about what I expected, given that you said you weren't having speed problems to begin with: Minimal, barely noticeable speed increase. Glad it's working for you. :)

And yeah you should have lost about 130mb(ish) once dalvik moved internal, but it doesn't really matter since all your apps are going to SD anyhow now. ;)

I am going to go ahead and release this status bar theme. I havent heard back yet but after looking at their statistics, their last post was in 2010.

I am still giving credit for the icon to "dafunk's" NGTV Taskbar theme that I found in a WM6.5 thread.

Exchange Active Sync

Hi Myn et. al,

Does anyone know if the default email program on Synergy support multiple Exchange Active Sync (EAS) accounts?

I know that the default HTC mail.apk does not, and still doesn't even on 3.0 Honeycomb.

Usefull to have a unified Inbox for my Coprorate mail and personal Hotmail accounts.

Is there anyway this functionality COULD be added to the base ROM? I don't like the idea of paying $ for a 3rd party application if we can make the native one work this way.

Any thoughts on the matter?

Danka,

Dannon

Is HDR actually working for anyone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mjwill1:
Waiting for this myself. :)

It's my understanding that we are all waiting for HTC to release the source code for the kernel. Once that is done, the devs will add the tun.ko module to the kernel and we should be good to go. We have to wait because the tun.ko module needs to be compiled against the current kernel source which we don't have yet, because HTC is dragging their feet. Maybe they are worried about Apple's lawsuit against them? j/k

[EVO 4G Android Development] rlh82:
No, it doesn't work, but as a photographer, I'm not sure how a camera like this could ever take a real HDR pic. I would imagine the HDR setting, if it were to work, would just crank up the contrast and sharpness of the photo some, which you could do yourself with the camera app's settings.

dtapps2sd

This is a noob question for most, I'm new to the entire dtapps2sd and things of that nature, I have an 8gig sd card that is partition swap=0 ext-3=1024. I hear people saying that moving your apps to the sd card and freeing up internal memory helps your phone run faster. I installed dtapps2sd this from the synergy updater in hopes of moving my apps to my sd card and free up some internal memory, I was able to move some apps to my sd card but some I was not able to. Are only certain apps able to move to sd card?

Settings-SD & phone storage:

SD card available space: 5.10GB

Internal storage available space: 224MB

These are my stats.

Thanks.

Whattup Peeps!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] rlh82:
With any a2sd script running, all apps are automatically saved to your SD card in your ext3 partition. Install and load Titanium Backup and just look at the overview page to get a sense of how much data is in each part of your internal and external memory. If you don't see an ext3 partition in that overview shot, then something is wrong.

EDIT: It should also be mentioned that if you have your ext3 set up and an a2sd script running, AND you've gone ahead and manually moved ANY apps from phone to SD, what you've actually done is moved your apps out of your ext3 partition and onto another part of your SD card, which is a waste. You want them on the ext3 partition.

Just remember - with an ext3 and a2sd, your phone THINKS that however much of your SD card is actually internal memory, not external. It'll say it's on the phone, but you know better ;)

It means that its just a skin and not a full theme. Things like dialer, keyboard, systemui, taskbar etc... arent themed.

Thats why myn, djzager and I are polishing a Warm Synergy theme that has all of the above themed as well. I cant wait to get it out to you guys. I've almost put it out there a number of times. But somehow held off from doing so. Expect it on rls1 launch day. Maybe ill allow a few of you test in the next couple days :)

I pulled up Titanium Backup and this is what I show:

System ROM: 367 (20.9 MB free)

Internal: 446MB (235 MB free)

SD card: 6.84 GB (5.48 GB free)

SD card (a2sd): 959 MB (900 MB free)

Is this how is should look? Does SD card (a2sd) mean I have ext3?
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
This man is wise, listen to him. ;)

To take it a step further, you're actually slowing things DOWN by going into menu/settings/applications and moving them to SD card. They're already on your SD card, in a filesystem that's designed for Linux (which is the underlying OS for Android)...moving them to SD card moves them to .android_secure on your Windows filesystem on your SD card which isn't as optimized and will actually slow them down.

Addressing your comment about speeding things up:

When you run low on space in internal memory, it can indeed slow your phone down...but the primary point to moving apps to SD card in the first place is to increase the amount of space you have for applications while at the same time leaving your data partitions alone.

When you installed dta2sd it actually lowered your internal memory a bit because it moved your dalvik-cache to internal..this does two things: One it lowers space in /data and two it tends to make things faster since dalvik-cache runs better from internal storage.

In a nutshell, unless you were having lag or slowness problems initially, you really didn't need to install dta2sd. ;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:

whattup doug, I'm getting antsy about getting rls1 out there. I think we are pretty close wouldnt you say? Its getting polished pretty well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rlh82:
Yes, the "SD card (a2sd)" is your ext3 on your SD card. Notice how you only have 59 MB actually on that ext3? That should be much higher, assuming you have more than 59MB of app data total.

With what smw6180 said, it's pretty important that you go and move any apps you moved to your SD card BACK to "internal memory" (which means your ext3 - your phone just doesn't know that) to take full advantage of your ext3 partition.

So with all this talk about DTa2sd, I have a few questions. Forgive me if these have been answered previously.

1) Will apps still automatically move to ext3? I thought I remember reading that you had to open terminal emulator and put something in to move apps. Is this now automated?

2) So I just download the script from Synergy Updater, boot into recovery, and flash away?

ya know - i realized - in my detailed steps -

that i myself forgot to move ext-2 to ext-3 before i flashed synergy.

so TB reads whatever ext you have ?

I use CM7 as my daily..and really love this ROM and want to switch but there are a few little things that I miss about CM7 that when all added up might make me go back.

Was wondering if anyone here knows of settings, apps, widgets, settings file that can be edited, etc...that can do the same things. Would be a huge help...thank you.

1.) Make the camera app take a picture with the volume buttons instead of zoom in and out.

2.) Way to make widget sizes of of a single widget show up as ONE item in the widget list that when chosen THEN shows u the sizes to choose. Hate having to scroll through 100+ list where there is only like 30 apps and the rest are the various sizes of the apps.

Theres a few more but these are the 'huge' ones for me.

Also, I notice that the sense3 camera app, a few of the preset effects dont work. Panorama does, and a few more..but dots, and a few others dont. Is this a known issue or did I do something wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
1. It's always been automatic. You don't have to do anything. The major difference is that your dalvik-cache will move from the SD card to the /data partition on internal storage.

2. If you download from Synergy (and you're using AmonRa's recovery) you can just tell it to install. I recommend grabbing the zip from synergy updater or the link in my signature and flashing manually though. That way you can nandroid beforehand.

The only reason you'd need terminal emulator is if you want to do other things with a2sd...you can move dalvik back to SD card, or mess with memory settings, etc.

Yep. TB will read any ext partition on your SD card (2/3/4).

Interesting thought: I don't know if TB is looking for /system/sd/app or just an ext partition on the SD card. Technically you could add another ext partition on your SD card and shove something else in there...I wonder what TB would do in that scenerio...hmmm....
