Is there a way to see if a provider supports fast dormancy or not?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jan-willem3:
Yeah you need to check logcat if it is wrong you will see that the phone is constantly trying to go in fast dormancy mode. Also you should see always 3g icon when there is no data transfered then fast dormancy works.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] clyder:
There is no 'fast dormancy' lines in logcat. And 3g icon is always on, so I guess that the fast dormancy is supported. Thanx.

WLAN not working

I tried the patch and copied the code into my build.prop

The data connection felt much snappier but my WLAN was not working anymore. Activation of WLAN was not possible anymore - I always got an error :(

After deleting the code everything is working again.

Any clue what command could have caused this problem?

I really want to use this patch, cause I also had less battery drainage ...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] codiak:
Try it without the ro.telephony.default_network entry
[HD2 Android NAND Development] rebuild:
Tried it but its not working without this line. Any other idea?

tweaks plus wifi calling

Quick question, I wish to have this, and also install the wifi calling on my hyperdroid; however for installation of the wifi calling app I have to perform this:

Comment or remove rild.libpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so

Code:

#rild.libpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so

Add

Code:

# WiFi Calling #

rild.libpath=/system/lib/librilswitch.so

...which is precisely the opposite of what is required to have these tweaks working; we need to use the libhtc_ril.so

Any workaround?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] oopsi:
Just a quick question: setting this Option to 0 will disable fast dormancy. Is this correct? Thanks.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jan-willem3:
Yeah sorry I will make it disable - enable.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rando81:
what effect do these tweaks have on 2G network users?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shorty1483:
Jan-willem, I have one short question. I called o2 Germany Hotline and they told me that Fast Dormancy is not yet supported. So I set it in build.prop to 0. They told me also, that in few places, they are working on NCFD pilot projects.

At the moment I am in Berlin, and I recognized that my phone is in 3G mode until I begin an active data connection (e.g. Browser). At that moment the signal switches from 3G to HSDPA. After it, it goes back to 3G. Perhaps Berlin Middle is such a pilot project place.

The question I have is, why is Fast Dormancy working, when it's disabled in RIL Tweaks?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] codiak:
I have exactly the same situation!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jan-willem3:
Network Controlled Fast Dormancy (NCFD)

As you see this means that o2 can control fast dormancy. Not a strange situation because if implented properly this give an advatage for the provider as well. However I didn't know that our phones support ncfd.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jan-willem3:
Edit: I guess this function works since we are using gingerbread roms wich have latest ril interface. I don't think this function is phone/radio related. Because NCFD is a new technology. Wich I don't think was supported when our phone was released but it might work because new radio's. You could test this by flashing a early winmo rom not the latest one ofcourse or an early radio.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shorty1483:
Could it perhaps also be like that because I use CLK with RIL-Wrapper?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] codiak:
No, as I am using magldr and RMNET :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shorty1483:
Hmmmm, weird thing. Only solution in my eyes could be, that Fast Dormancy could be selected over Service station.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jcsy:
Using RIL wrapper in

Hyperdroid CM7 with LCD density 240 (default)

you can change this to 160 if you wish for default , or 177 or 215 depending on your eye sight

tests prove slightly more 3G connections and optimized requests for HSDPA only when needed :)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Fast dormancy is an A Ok for Australia Telstra 3g :)

Would we save much battery just by disabling HSPA?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsip:
I'm running CM 7.1 RC1 (tried the latest nightlies as well..) in my Desire Z.

Recently my Wifi stopped finding networks. If I turn on Wifi in the settings, it displays no available networks (the remembered ones are still shown as "Not in Range" though), and says it is connecting. If I do however start Wifi Analyzer before turning on the wifi (turning Wifi on via the pull down menu thing) Wifi Analyser says "Turning on Wifi, please wait.." and then finds the networks available. After that my phone connects just fine.

Any idea what I could do to fix it..?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsip:
The latest Nightly (160) fixed it. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] chinoyray:
A lot of custom ROMs out there for the Android utilizes Dark Tremor’s A2SD which of course enables you to store your apps and phone’s dalvik cache in the SD card and saves you more free memory for more apps.

This is good especially if you download lots of games to your phone.

Requirements:

SD card reader – since you need to connect your SD card to the PC.

A partitioning tool. – I suggest Partition Wizard by Mini-tool – http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html

How to partition the SD Card:

Connect your SD card to your PC and let Partition Wizard detect it.

Delete all your current partition in the SD card. Make sure to back up your files first.

Using the partition wizard, create a Fat32 filesystem. Make sure that it’s set as primary and has a 32kb cluster. Leave space for the ext4 partition. (if your SDcard’s size is 4gb, then just allocate around 3.4gb for the Fat32 parition.)

Using partition wizard, create a ext4 filesystem on the remaining unallocated parition of the SD card. It is advisable that you allocate 512mb for your ext4 partition.

Once done, you can now flash/install your custom Android ROMs that utilizes Darktremor’s Apps2SD.

PS: I wrote this because I always see people asking everywhere on how to partition their SD cards.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] ingbrzy:

I admire you for searching that. I found that too. However, I'm getting tired of newbies asking around the threads and just getting that same answer.

That's why I wrote this. The intention of this is good. Don't spoil it. :p
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] ingbrzy:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] zuheltzer:
do i really need a card reader? Is it not okay to just connect phone to PC with SD card in it?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] chinoyray:
Nope. Most SD cards will have a problem when flashed that way. So better use a card reader.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] mooop12:
How do i know if the script is working? I've started A2SDGUI, but in the tab that should show me used and free space SD-EXT entry is the same as /cache, that is 24mb total (I've created 512mb ext4 partition).

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] AxleFolie:
Can I have ext4 on my 8GB SDHC Card??
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
It can be partitioned but not advisable if you use stock samsung 2gb class 2 for a2sd, yes a2sd will run but it may give you a poor phone performance. buy a class 4 atleast sd card.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
Yes you can partition ext4 on your 8gb sd card, i recommend 1gb for ext4 if you play heavy games. BTW you can adjust the size of partition using minitool partition home, search the forum for link.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] AxleFolie:
Oh btw i got class 2 8gb sdhc card..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
oh! you can try if you observed laggy poor performance it could be due to your low class sd card.

You mean you already have 420mb something on EXT4 partition? Yes that will do, and besides if your low in EXT later you can safely adjust the size using the minitool.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Bayint Naung:
If I install to SD card ext4 partition, Can I install widgets, themes, etc?

Or they won't work?

I read somewhere that this DT a2sd is moving entire application(making link to sd card)?

So if I unmount/copy files from sdcard, will apps(widget,...) still work?

I haven't tried it out yet. will give it a try later on...

Edit: I need to buy a good SD card. Current one's very slow... Which brand has good balance between cost & class?

Just asking ahead. :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] danish.:
3 Simple questions need a reply .. How do i check which class my card is ? What class is stock Samsung SD Card? And will i be able to use Apps2sd with ext2 partition cause i read that ext4 eats up more battery ..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
I recommend sandisk class 10, if its available in your place.:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
1. If class 4 above it is printed in the card. If there's no print then its a class 2 card.

2. Stock samsung sdcard is class 2.

3. Yes, a2sd can still run in ext2 partition, if you partition your card using CWM you can get ext3 a2sd can still run with it, but of course ext4 is recommended.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
You have a bad partitioning try to delete your partition using windows, and partition again your card, make a back-up to all your files.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] zuheltzer:
I see. Thanks. Will try again. Can I partition using CWM recovery?

ACING with XDA Premium
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
Yes you can.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] zuheltzer:
Ext4 right? Do i need to make a backup of all my SD card files?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Xozzi:
You did the same mistake as me - following the guide point by point.

The thing is, the guide doesnt mention that ext4 partition (and also the eventual swap partition if you got that) has to be PRIMARY as well as the FAT32 partition.

So..

SD STORAGE -- FAT32 -- 32KB CLUSTER -- PRIMARY

APP2SD -- EXT4 -- DEFAULT CLUSTER -- PRIMARY

(SWAP -- LINUX SWAP -- DEFAULT CLUSTER -- PRIMARY)

Hope this helps for you too!

Becouse mine just did exactly the same with 20/24 mb free :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] casiocas:
Hey

Hey chinoyray, you missed that part: "BOTH PARTITIONS MUST MAKE LIKE PRIMARY". Can you correct that in your first post in this thread?

THX man!

CHEERS! :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Xozzi:
Actually it didnt work anyway :S

But afaik they all have to be primary, so it's still an error in the guide :D

If anyone has a fix for this 20/24mb used - please let me/us know.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
No only EXT3 in this CWM version for ACE, in other CWM version like for LG it gives EXT4. Too bad for this version, maybe someone can request for an update of our CWM. Yes back-up all
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] zuheltzer:
Yeah getting that 20/24 mb used thing. Checked the partition wizard again and it did say I have 3.5 for FAT32 and 420something for ext4...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] royskeyz:
Hmm...maybe you guys use other partition tool, minitool partition home gives a false result, on minitool partition gui success but in actual it failed, the phone cant read the right partition. I only use CWM in partitioning mine, no prob.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] adeklipse:
Hey guys,

I've been browsing this thread from the first post till last and I've seen many people having the 24MB of SD-EXT on A2SDGUI.

I'm no expert (I just started this ROM-flashing business 2 days ago), but I think it has something to do with using the stock Samsung SD Card -- the one you got for free when buying the Ace. Am I correct?

I'm also having problems with A2SD and A2SDGUI. I've tried partitioning through GParted and CWM, tried formatting the SD Card 5 times(!), and flashed almost every single ROM I could find on the first two pages of the Galaxy Ace Android Development subforum(!!!).

Cheers, and thanks in advance! :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Xozzi:
Im not using stock sd card .. Ive got a 8gb sdhc so shouldnt be why.. Tbh i think its a bug with flash x2 rom becouse link2sd shows correct values but dt:app2sd shows only 20/24mb ;s
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] adeklipse:
Just bought myself a new SD card (8GB) and everything's working fine! (Were my suspicions right?)

But A2SDGUI is still displaying 24MB and system info according to Titanium Backup says I don't have an ext partition at all! But I guess that's because TB can't detect ext4 partitions yet.

I know it works because I downloaded Opera Mobile (18MB), moved it to the "internal storage", and (according to Settings > SD Card & Storage) it doesn't display any radical change in internal memory.

And ext4 Manager says that my /system/sd is indeed occupied.

I think it's because A2SDGUI can't detect ext4 partitions (much like the case for TB), even though its front-end can.

Hi guys,

I bought a new class 10 card to upgrade from class 4 and partitioned it according to this guide. The class 4 had a 512mb ext4 partition with a2sd enabled. I unmounted the old sd card and inserted the new formatted sd card (ext2- 512mb and rest fat32) and clicked 'rebuild and move' in a2sdgui with 'dalvik on sd-ext' selected. Now my phone is not booting. Tried the old card, no luck, still stuck on Galaxy Ace Logo with blue triangle in left top corner. Anybody has an idea whats happening?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] adeklipse:
Why not try all? :)

I don't know much about card classes, but ext3 is, IMO, the best and safest choice; it's relatively stable, and also quite feature-full.

Ext2 is very developed, and the most stable out of the three (ext2, ext3, ext4), but it's also very old, and does not support journalling (AFAIK)

Ext4 has more features than ext3, but it's still quite young, and not as stable.
