When it comes down to it here's the order to get ext4 and nameless kernel on your GB rom only.

Wipe all

Odin EP1F/H Leak

Odin new CWM (orange) *MUST REINSERT BATTERY BEFORE YOU ODIN THIS

Wipe all again

In CWM Flash ext4 format all

In CWM Mount system, data, etc. NOTE* MUST MOUNT EXTSTORAGE

In CWM Flash your rom one that supports this... (preferably Eclipse touchwiz)

In CWM Flash kernel cleanup script

Odin Nameless Kernel *MUST REINSERT BATTERY BEFORE YOU ODIN THIS

reboot...samsung will flash about 6 to 8 times before it boots
[Verizon Droid Charge] ovismos:
You sir are a gentlemen and a scholar. This worked great even after I softbricked my phone. I just flashed the stock debloated ep1f rom and followed these steps....now im running eclipse tw rom with ext4 file system. Thank you. This should be stickied and/or added to the thread!
[Verizon Droid Charge] spongers:
Thanks for the full listed instructions, but have a couple questions.

If I am coming from the Nameless EP1F ROM, do I need to ODIN?

Do you have the link for the CWM (orange) you mentioned? I have the blue one.....not sure what version that is, but it doesnt have an option for ext4 format.

Info is much appreciated!

Look on front page of development Its right there [how to] simply ext4 gb
[Verizon Droid Charge] spongers:
Thanks, found it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] reflekt2099:
so what's everyone's assessment of the new ext4 filesystem on GB?

I personally, haven't seen much of a significant improvement in speed. I'm still getting the same lagging i was experiencing using GB on RFS. (i.e., using an app, then going back to home, and the screen taking forever to populate with apps/widgets; or, the phone getting unnecessarily hot while using a "strenuous" app like youtube or web browsing)

i am in no way trying to bash the efforts made here. i really appreciate all the hard work. but i really thought i was going to see significant improvements going from RFS to EXT4. instead, i think my phone is just as slow, if not a bit slower.

and as a side note, i would think that quadrant scores would increase significantly as well. on the RFS file system on GB (EP1F/H), i was getting scores of 1370 or lower. never quite reaching 1400. which is already pretty impressive for RFS.

then after installing the nameless kernel, i'm still getting around the same exact scores, never reaching or going over 1400, and this is with EXT4.

i'm a bit perplexed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mbh87:
I get the same thing on 2.2 with lagfix sometimes, dunno what the deal is. Also quadrant scores dont mean everything ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] reflekt2099:
quadrant scores definitely don't mean everything. but 1370 on RFS, and then the same scores on ext4? a little bit odd. but yah, my main gripes were with the lagginess.

i think i'm gonna try and go back to EE4 with voodoo for now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] 24BlackMamba:
on ee4 with voodoo im getting anywere from 1750-1900
[Verizon Droid Charge] navenedrob:
I understand your concerns with the kernel. I'm sorry that you are not seeing the Quadrant scores you would like, but this kernel does come with a disclaimer (bottom of OP), which might explain some things. I would advise against using Quadrant as a bench marking platform, as it is entirely inaccurate and more a developer's joke than a real testing tool.

In the mean time, please read up on file systems and educate yourself as to what they do, exactly, so that you may not be perplexed in the future. If you don't know the benefits to an EXT4 file system over and RFS file system, then you will need to read these articles.

1) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system

2) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4

3) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3

4) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext2

5) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_file_system

6) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journaling_file_system

7) And finally, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux

If you don't take the time to educate yourself, then you will continue to be perplexed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ovismos:
I dont quite know why theres no difference for you. But boot up for me now is a matter of 15 seconds, sd card scanning takes 1/4 the time. It is noticeably quicker for me, ive noticed with loading anything for that matter. Did you check to see if the kernel actually created ext4? I know some people were having that issue. I can usually tell by installing the android info app and look at the system file paths...mine actually have ext4 listed for the data and android folder files.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ovismos:
As you can see the ext4 file extensions as well as the rfs filesystem on my ext usb mounting. (i didnt mount it during ext4 conversion).

Id check to see if youre actually using ext4.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RichardZu:
i finally got the ext 4 to work but now i lost the capabilities to mount my sd card. So i have a bunch of grayed out apps. I cant go into CWM and install anything from the card because it wont mount.. Please help
[Verizon Droid Charge] addictedhacks:
I guess I would try reodining CWM...
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
Try odining the latest orange cwm 4.0.1.4 (you need that version of cwm to flash the kernel to begin with). Also some people have reported having this problem fixed by wiping data/factory reset before installing. So:

flash new orange cwm in odin

wipe data

mount partitions in cwm (all of them)

flash ext4 formatter in cwm

flash rom (compatible see OP for a list of roms that work) in cwm

flash cleanup script in cwm

flash kernel in cwm

reboot

The wipe data step is arguably a waste of time because your flashing a formatter anyway, but some people have had issues. Sometimes even after a fresh install wiping data can help. Hope it works for you, it did for me.

[Verizon Droid Charge] spongers:
Is anyone else having major issues with this Kernel? Everytime I reboot or change the battery (I change it at least once a day as I always have a spare charged because this is my work phone too and I am on it a lot) I have to uninstall and reinstall every single app to get it work, otherwise they force close (even gmail and google maps). I am running this kernel and cwm, with the Eclipse GB ROM.

How would I go about switching kernels and going back to RFS?

EDIT: Prior to this kernel I was running stock with Eclipse GB and having no problems what-so-ever.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
Try doing a fix permissions from inside CWM, others have reported this fixing the FC issue. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling from scratch and be sure to wipe data before.. Hell even after wouldn't hurt, and it doesn't take long. If you reinstall be sure you follow the instructions to the letter, even steps that seem unnecessary must be done, and must be done in the order listed and to the letter or it won't work properly!
[Verizon Droid Charge] spongers:
I have tried the fix permissions, that didnt help either. On install, I did follow the directions to install, but on the wipe, do I only need to do the "wipe data/factory reset", or is there another place inside there to wipe?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
That includes wiping cache, but I still do a manual cache wipe just to be sure. It's the option directly underneath that. I wipe data before the install and sometimes afterwards too.. Look at my post a few above this with the steps, but since your doing Eclipse and not Gummy you can follow the instructions in the OP just be sure you wipe data before starting that process.

Also, did you mount the partitions in CWM before you installed? Your on the correct CWM eh? (orange text, version 4.0.1.4) And I'm assuming you were already on the GB leak prior to attempting all of this, which is another prerequisite.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spongers:
I am on the orange version of CWM. I also wiped, and was on the leaked version of the GB prior to wiping data and starting this process. It works most of the time as long as I do not reboot or change out my battery, which sucks cause I change out my battery every day because the battery on this thing gets eaten up by voice calls.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
Yeah it sure does get eaten by voice calls, and when you change out batteries it makes it very tough to calibrate either of them.. Not to mention I don't think it will store calibration stats from 2 batteries so it would never really work correctly. Calibration has been my battery life salvation, it works exceptionally well.

I'd still try again starting from scratch, wiping data before running the formatter and after you install the rom and before installing the cleanup script/kernel. Might not hurt to reflash the cwm too. If none of this works perhaps navendrob has some insight that I don't since he's the developer.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RichardZu:
I got it to work. What other roms work?
[Verizon Droid Charge] RooftopFiddler:
EP1Q?

Are you going to make a Nameless Kernel for EP1Q?
[Verizon Droid Charge] addictedhacks:
How about is it possible this will work with ep1q? lets test it out...
[Verizon Droid Charge] RooftopFiddler:
I'm currently testing it out too. I heard that it works.
[Verizon Droid Charge] fortesquieu:
Just out of curiosity, for those running EXT4 on GB roms, what's your quadrant scores? I know they don't mean much, just curious.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
This should work on EP1Q. I also am working on putting a hacked EP1Q kernel for the leak as well that supports EXT4, just trying to get it setup so you can have all partitions formatted as ext4.
[Verizon Droid Charge] addictedhacks:
i pretty much figured it would work
[Verizon Droid Charge] DirgeExtinction:
Does this kernel work on all GB roms?
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Yes, it should. Though any fixes or problems related to the kernel will follow the kernel around. I don't think there have been any major kernel changes, but you may introduce some new problems as well mixing ROM/Kernel versions.
[Verizon Droid Charge] wampuscat:

http://www.boxwave.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-101-p7510-accessories/bwdd/zzzk

I have been buying BoxWave ClearTouch Crystal screen protectors for all of my devices for years, and they are PERFECT.

No solutions, no bubbles, 100% clear, you can clean and re-use them, they are static-cling, they fit perfect, very scratch resistant, etc..

I have these on my Canon 5D MkII camera, my Droid X, and other things.

My Droid X has had the same one on for over a year now when I first got it and it is in near-perfect condition. No I am not a salesperson for BoxWave lol.

Although there are some accessories out now for the 10.1, the screen protectors are not yet. I emailed them and they said they will be soon though.

That FlexSuit case looks cool but I think it's similar to those really cheap ones on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200624247046&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] jeandujardin01:
cheap one ?! LOL

it's the same !

must be the regular price & boxwave just wanna make some more bucks

Boxwave:

Regular Price:

$34.95

Web Special:

$19.95

ebay :

$10
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] just4747:
I doubt it's the same. I am sure the BoxWave one is better quality and that the design is slightly different as they usually have higher-quality products. Similar though, yes...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] dive_junkie76:
Didn't see it anywhere on the site but do you know if they make screen protectors for it. If you say they are good and aren't to crazy on price, i'd be interested in picking one up.

Yeah they said it will be released soon. Ill be gettin one.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] knowwhere2stand:
Since all of the information here has helped me out substantially since receiving my tablet, I wanted to let everyone know what is happening with Boxwave.

I ordered "FlexSuit , Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 P7510, Smoke Grey - Qty: 2" for the I/O model (for a colleague and myself). The package took several days to ship and about 3 weeks to arrive in Vancouver, Canada. The package contained 2 x smoke flexsuits for the Xoom. Upon notifying Boxwave, I was told that it would be corrected soon by cross ship and Boxwave would reimburse me up to $5 USD since I would have to pay for the Xoom cases to be returned. I told them it was unlikely I could return these items for that little from Vancouver, and requested that they send a preauthorized envelope. The support person got back to me a couple of days later letting me know that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 flexsuits had been discontinued and that was the source of the confusion, and said preauthorized shipping from Canada was not a possibility. They could now authorize more than $5 for the shipment.

Anyway, I will have to return the shipment out of my own pocket to have any chance of a refund.

Does anyone know if the antiglare screen protector dulls the screen's color or output? I have the Invisible Shield, but has its corners messed up from the media dock. It also seems to pick up little "dimples" over time. For some reason, my Evo 4G kept getting the same dimples over time and done know what causes it.

kind of a long shot maybe but thought I'd ask anyway...

I'm currently playing Metal Gear Solid through FPse on my Sensation.

I'm on the part where you face Psycho Mantis.

well, long story short, you are suppose to switch to port 2 of the controller so he can't read your moves.

problem is, there is no port 2 on FPse or the a way to trick it through the Sensation that I know of.

anyway, anyone know of a solution to this?

yeah, kind of a long shot but thought I'd ask.

Thanks. :o
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:

there is no way to do it with fpse, but you could with psxdroid...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] crockashat:
Ok I have STFA and I did find the method to wi-fi tether (and was able to WI-FI tether my G2xand the wife's SGs4g to the TF101) . Still I am looking for a way to tether my phone to the TF101 via USB. Wi-fi is ok, but it chews battery, and I just dont feel its as secure either. I noticed that I can connect my G2x to the TF101 via USB and it will see the external SD card, but it will not see the internal storage of the phone and under the settings tab the USB tether option is greyed out and cannot be activated.

Since I am still kinda a noob to Android devices I need to lean on those that have a much better knowledge than myself on subjects like this.

Do any of you know if it is possible (or can be made possible) to find and install drivers that would allow USB tethering between Android devices? I have an LG G2x (P-999) the wife has a Samsung Galaxy S 4g and both phones (running Froyo) and the TF101 are rooted -- the only one with a custom ROM is the transformer (Prime 1.5 Honeycomb) the phones are strictly rooted and deodexed (so far, not to say that won't change in the future)

Any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance for any insight into this dilemma.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoTeC:
Welcome Crockashat,

Why do you want to tether via USB? It kind of defeats portability doesn't it? Just asking...

FYI, Just today XDA-Dev Transformer added a Q&A section where your post may get better attention.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
Because hes probably using the dock with the Transformer and he doesn't see a reason why not to "USB tether" it?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoTeC:
Really? To a phone? I don't get it... :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PhoenixFx:
You can't expect Windows level driver support with Android. I don;t think you can find proper drivers for it yet.

Before Wi-Fi tethering, people used USB. Even now some may prefer it because wi-fi tethering kills the phone battery very quickly. Little over a year ago (before I got my Galaxy S) even I used to tether my old Nokia over USB to my notebook when travelling because of battery issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoTeC:
I guess I understand about the battery drain. I just can't get by the wires... Seems so yesterday... lol
[Eee Pad Transformer General] crockashat:
Main reasons are-> battery drain, & also reliability/security

Thanks for the replys, Yes the main reason is chewing up the phones battery, and its hard to say which is more secure a wi-fi network or cell networks, but when it comes to reliable connections -- hardwiring wins hands down.

I don't know if these would be considered window's level drivers, I have read where a few have managed to use PUTTY to modify their USB cellular dongles (which are windows based devices) to be compatible with the A-TF, where I am trying to use an Android based smart phone, not sure, not my area of expertise.

I bought the transformer for my wife, but the more I have used it, the more I think I may be able to use one in place of a laptop for work most of the time. My line of work sends me into alot of noisy (EMI) areas and wi-fi connections can be kinda flaky due to the amount of similiar frequencies being brodcasted at a higher signal strength than a typical cell phone/netbook wi-fi signal being used, it does also effect cell phone signals as well but nowhere near as bad as wi-fi signals. Don't get me wrong it is nice to be able to tether over wi-fi as well, I havent done it yet but the auto-tether app where I can connect without even having to pull my phone out of pocket is something I do want.

I have to carry around too much crap already, and if I can reduce some size and weight by finding a way to get this to get the USB tethering option to work between an Android based smart phone and the Asus Transformer, it would be great.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] travisd4est:
Is it possible.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I'm pretty sure it is but personally I wouldn't try it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
If I remember correctly you can't. You need to be fully rooted meaning s-off. Basically s-off means radio sercurity off,among other things turned off. If you try to flash anything through clocklworkmod recovery without s-off,either nothing will happen or your phone will be bricked an you will have to buy a complete new phone. Best thing to do is fully root(s-off). If you need help rooting your phone,send me a pm,an ill help you out.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
You're right that you must be rooted to flash in recovery, but you do not flash radios in recovery. They are flashed in the bootloader, and I'm not sure root access is required to flash a PD15IMG.zip file in the bootloader. I'm leaning towards root not being required, but I don't know for sure. Might as well go ahead and try it. The worst that could happen is you get the "access denied" message and the installation aborts.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
I was thinking that about the radio, I just flashed my first one. After having my phone rooted for 6months. Only reason why I said root the phone. Is to make sure he has full control over the phone. An it takes some risks out,some but not all.

Radios can be flashed in bootloader - otherwise stock firmware updates wouldn't be able to upgrade radios - but they most probably need to be signed to be flashed by S-ON bootloader. In that case, the answer to the OP would be "no".
