-------- 29/08/2011 --------

UPDATE:

update.zip (19.61 MB)

update.zip (mediafire.com link)

Changelog:

- ext4 support bugfix

- BLN support

- Only use busybox in /sbin. Now, no one can break CF-Root's busybox.

- Fix some script in /system/bin reported does not work with CF-Root (am, bmgr, ime, input, monkey, pm, and svc).

With deodexed /system/app and /system/framework, USB and WiFi tethering failed to start. Restoring back /system backup, resolve the problem :confused:

Is a wise choice to make a nandroid backup before doing filesystem conversion using ext4 Manager.

-------- 26/08/2011 --------

UPDATE:

update.zip (19.94 MB)

Have a critical bug in init.rc, do not use this for ext2/3/4 fs.

Big thanks to ilarrain and koush! Using ilarrain's patch for pm2.c, now I can use my own compiled kernel for CWM4 without recovery boot loop :D

Changelog:

- CWM v4.0.0.9, ext4 support

- Auto install CF-Root after update, no need to delete /system/cfroot manually

Zeam Home Screen

Firmware Version

CPU Spy Info

-------- 24/08/2011 --------

UPDATE:

update.zip (12.57 MB)

Changelog:

- Using the latest smartass, interactive, and interactiveX source from erasmux

- Fix bug with cpufreq stats, now the CPU Spy can display the CPU Time In State. Possible problems associated with SOD because CPU frequency is too low. May be Sleep Of Death starting from Sleep tO Deep :D

NOTE:

Remove cfroot directory in /system to force reinstall CF-Root!

-------- 23/08/2011 --------

I am planning to upgrade to official Indonesia Gingerbread (2.3.4 DXKP9), so I have to flash my device to Froyo. But before go to Samsung Service Center, I tried the implementation of CF-Root in Froyo and here's the result:

update.zip (12.46 MB)

Flash it using Galaxy Ace standard recovery.

It has been tested on Froyo DXKC1 and may not be problematic in other Froyo. Everything at your own risk!

Almost same as CF-Root for Gingerbread, except:

- No tiny RCU implementation

- Have smartass and interactive CPU governer, thanks to psyke83 from http://www.madteam.co/

- Default have 32MB zram swap, thanks to psyke83

- Android Scribble 2.0 boot animation from here, thanks to GLa'DOS

- No BLN support

- The CWM part no ready yet

To enabling smartass governer:

propset persist.tweak.gov_smartass enabled

To disabling smartass governer and back to ondemand governer:

propset persist.tweak.gov_smartass disabled

Reserved for future update?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] mdfzhi:
one thing caught my interest, since when u implement smartass cpu governor? any chance of it getting to cfroot for kpn/kph? as always, good job :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] izador:
does it support EXT4 ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] consegregate:
I just jizzed to this topic. 2.2 is actually much faster and lightweight compared to 2.3 and with cfroot I might give up custom roms for 2.3 for a while... :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] ketut.kumajaya:
Of course yes.

Yes, but the CWM part not ready yet. Do not use ext4 Manager to convert your fs until the CWM part ready.

I am thinking about dual booting.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] skynet28:
Dual booting..wow..as always you come with new and fantastic ideas.

Without reflashing again and again we can have two ROMs.

I wish I could multiboot between different custom ROMs!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] consegregate:
Will take a lot of work! I'm no developer but I sure know that.

Though cwm must first work with froyo.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] fla.sh:
Huge thanks to you, ketut.kumajaya.. You made it again!! I'm planning to make a froyo ROM, but I can't find CF-Root for froyo.. And now you made it! :D :D :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] QNBT:
Would be mostly appreciated (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x99)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] izador:
coollll, 10x :-)

there is CWM, maybe it can fit ?

*wifi dont turn on .... get error when trying to enable it

OK found the problem used DKC1
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] izzoe:
Wow.. Just flashed to Froyo to get my GB update.. Much appreciated for CF-Root adaptation.. This make it Ultimate Froyo (coincidentally a nice ROM name XD) before getting my official GB upgrade..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] ketut.kumajaya:
Actually I want to bring CF-Root to my wife's Galaxy 5 using psyke83's Galaxy 5 kernel for CyanogenMod.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] CallMeVentus:
WOW o.o a Froyo ROM ?!!

This patch fix SOD then?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] ketut.kumajaya:
Using smartass governer, have set it so CPU mode only in Deep Sleep, 245MHz, and 800MHz. Jumping from Deep Sleep to 800MHz. No SOD so far :D Not sure about battery usage and no report since Froyo not popular here :(

What is the major difference? I see that the Freedom kernel has a separate download for RLS1 vs the Nightlies...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steven 1:
The nightlies are built and torn down every day and have many experimental elements in your phone that may cause it to be unstable while rls1 is pretty much the finished product until a new update is implemented (reason for nightlies
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m20120:
I also believe the Nightly build is not optimized and requires more space than is available in the system partition. This is one of the reasons that I have been told that the nightly needs a special build of the kernel.

Hi

Thanks for a very informative forum.

I bought a Verizon in the U.S. for 14 days and will be using this in Norway, I have read that there are some ways to open this to other telephone operators but has not been able to find something that works in Norway.

Does anyone have any tips?

You need to either get SIM unlock code from Verizon or an unlocking website, or use an xtc clip to s-off and sim unlock. Then you should be good to go with sim cards.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] hah2110:
Does anyone actually feel like the the MT4g Slide can replace your point & shoot camera?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _atlien_:
Mine has. I take lots of photos and since picking up my MT4GS I don't take the point and shoot out with me anymore.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] hah2110:
Bump.... anyone else? For example, I'm going on vaca to California and want to know if it is worth it to buy/bring a small camera.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
My digitial camera is a bit older now, it's a kodak model I picked up from circuit city (yea, that should tell ya something if you live in the u.s.)

Even so, my digital camera is a 10 megapixel camera, and I think the ccd in it is better then the one in the phone. The HDR option on the phone makes it compare pretty closely though.

I'm not entirely sure about direct comparison of picture quality between the two yet, but comparing the stock camera app on this phone to my pocket camera - the answer is yes, it can replace my digital camera, for me.

The kodak was still an entry level camera at the time I bought it (around $150 several years ago) but it gives me more adjustment options in manual (program) mode.

Specifically: I can set my iso to 1600 and 3200 whereas the phone only goes up to 800 - and I use this at night to get better pictures in darkness.

A couple other small adjustments my digital camera offers me that the stock camera app doesn't for the phone. But really, this is the kind of nit-picking that says the next step up from the phone is a DSLR, at least for what I have.

The sweep shot option on the phone is many times better the the panoramic option offered on my digital camera, and the phone takes pictures much more quickly then the digital camera does.

The effect settings on the phone are pretty sweet, I can take the picture that way instead of adding it after the fact. Too, the phone will let me make some edits to my pictures using apps I can get (even some free ones that aren't bad.)

I am not sure of the quality being offered by current model digital cameras, but aren't they up to something like 14 megapixels now?

If you're trying to be a professional photographer, then just carrying around a phone as your camera is a joke. From the casual picture taker perspective, the phone is pretty awesome.

I suggest running around with it and snapping a whole mess of pictures where you live now. Take a day, and pretend you are a tourist in your own town. Find your local landmarks, or anything that looks cool in your town and snap pictures of it all.

(make sure to find one cool looking building, one cool looking tree, and snap some pictures of crowds and traffic)

Mess with the different modes and settings, and try to take the same picture multiple times with the different settings.

Come home and put all the pics on your computer, print a few out, and see how they look.

If you are only going to end up with 4x6 and 5x7 pictures that you print out when you're done, the camera is sufficient. If you are trying to make poster sized professional prints - get a DSLR.

From what it sounds like, though, the camera on the phone should be fine for you.

(sorry if this is a bit rambly, i'm still waiting for my coffee to finish brewing after just waking up)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] hah2110:
That was very helpful. I don't have the phone and was considering getting it. Anyone else
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pmcqueen:
here are some pics I've taken with the MT4GS... has completely replaced my P&S cam since I bought it. quality isn't quite as good as most decent P&S cams I've used, but it's close enough that it makes sense not to haul another piece of tech around. overall, I'm impressed.. especially coming from the G2 which had a pretty lackluster camera.

(apologies for posting massive pictures, tried to size them down a bit)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] hah2110:
Pics look good. How would indoor/party photos look?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] hah2110:
BUMP......
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] napilopez:
Actually indoor photos are what surprise me the most. The low lighting performance is truly quite good for a phone. The only thing is that white balance tends to be a bit slow to kick in for some reason. When indoors or in a dark setting, the image will often start out very red. Point the camera at a white wall or something and the balance will fix itself right away.

Here are some photos taken indoors and/or with low lighting, no post editing done. Photos are lower quality because I'm taking them off of facebook:

Dim Lighting

During Sunset:

This one is pretty well lit but the dynamic range worked out nicely:

I applied one of the phone's stock filters to this one, but it was done in low lighting(just one tabletop lamp on the other side of the room):

This one is in daylight obviously, but its an HDR shot that came out nicely:

BTW, the phone has an "autoenhance" feature which is enabled by default. I prefer to disable it. Basically it sharpens edges and removes noise, but imo it makes the image lose some of it's fidelity at higher zooms. I therefore prefer to turn off the feature. I enjoy doing post-work on my photos so I'd rather reduce noise in Photoshop if I need to (rarely).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] napilopez:
Oh, and sorry for the double-post, but I will again re-emphasize turning off autoenhance unless you're taking photos in a really dark area and/or are tremendously averse to noise artifacts(which are still pretty minimal in most cases). While certainly it's no DSLR, nowhere near, it actually can replace most point and shoots and is the best phone camera you're going to find outside of the Nokia N8. Some say the Galaxy SII is just as good but I strongly disagree. Color fidelity is what matters the most to me in a portable camera(alongside decent sharpness) and this phone excels in that area imo. Besides, at the end of the day, it's the photographer that matters. Not to say you need to be a photographer, but use whatever light you have available smartly and you might be surprised with your results.

Gonna post a few more shots for fun. These are all completely unedited:

Panorama:

Hydrant:

And me:

Sorry I don't take that many pictures of people lol, but they look good and the flash does a good job of illuminating without being harsh.

Also, as a general tip, if you actually want your pictures to look better than average, you can have a little fun in photoshop or GIMP. I am unfortunately nowhere near being able to afford a DSLR at the moment, so I tend to try to compensate with some post work with image editors. I'd much rather do these images the "real" way(and keen eyes can see the artificial details), but this camera is good enough to get some nice post-editing work for artistic effect.

The following have been edited with a lens blur filters, grain addition, and/or color correction:

Me again:

Old-Camera Style Close-Up:

My Sister:

Nice Walk:

So yea, I'm by no means a "real" photographer, but I enjoy putting a bit more effort into my photos than the average person, giving them a bit of my touch that goes further than, like, instagram. Put some thought into your shots, and you'll see the MT4GS will be a powerful tool :P
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Seriously, I love this camera.

Tell me If Any Other Roms are there awesome like LeeDroid please :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saiiint:
I dont think is there any BEST rom for Your phone. You need to test and compare some roms and choose which is more handy for You. I personally dont like AOSP roms. My best for now was RCMix V2 now iam using LeeDroiD R5 that is awesome. Just flash > test > reflash new :) I got some advice for You.

Make appz backup and other things You need. Then try all roms what You want to try. Next You can choose from all of these roms which is good for You. This is best sollution.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parva4:
Bad advice. It crashed like hell for me and a few of my friends and the Leedroid HD ROM was far superior in both reliabilty and battery life. That's not to say that the AcesMod ROM will work badly but similarly other ROM's will work better for others.

For someone with s-off this statement is full of fail. With 110 apps I have 120Mb internal and 250 on sd-ext free. That is plenty of space. There are not enough good apps on market to fill that :p

Bottom line - you s-offed for the sake of it while not even scratching the real benefits of s-off. And yes, Sense 1.9 can fit into oxygenr2 ;)

i am on the MIUI XJ A2SD+

do you know what are the differences between a2SD and d2ext ?

except that the whole data goes to the ext partition are there real benefits like speed ?

and how's your battery ? mine is not so good on this rom

i really like this rom ... i love the camera options the most

but i think Oxygen is best on battery...still testing the Miui rom
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashutosh1313:
Thnx for replies

It really helped :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
Your post is absolutely full of fail, you arrogant prick.

I S-OFF'd because the modded ROM I'm using requested so. I have 1.5GB data supplied to data2ext and I've used 700mb of that. Let's not forget Angry Birds is 25mb each, Google Earth is 50mb, Skymap something similar, those 6-7 apps alone destroy the 147mb data a vanilla Desire has. The OP DOES NOT need to S-OFF in order to use Data2EXT.

Thanks for your pathetic lecture but you should keep it to yourself if you're going to arrogantly assume to be superior to others. I'm happy with the ROM in my sig.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
With A2SD+ it's just a matter of time before you run out of internal storage. Either messages, e-mails, facebook data (thumbnails, etc) will eventually eat into your 147mb internal storage and then you either need to clear out some data and/or apps or live with it.

With Data2EXT when you set, say, 1GB to it, your internal storage is now read as "1GB" instead of 147mb. Meaning it's a lot longer before you run out of room (I never have).

The downside is it can get laggy when installing multiple apps at once and when you've installed a lot of apps that can impact performance a little (though I usually find clearing the dalvik cache helps).

For me, personally, I wouldn't be able to use any other rom that doesn't include data2EXT. Next phone I buy is going come under close storage scrutiny.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
Did it now? :)

Thanks for your kind words btw. It usually comes out of ignorance and lack of arguments, so I'm kinda immune to that. You are entitled to your happiness with your rom, but you are not spreading around misinformation if I can help it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mite_jan:
yes i have noticed that even with a2sd internal memory is still a problem ....

do you think 512mb would be enought for data2ext ? (asking for this rom miui d2ext)

if not can i resize it with gparted preferably?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donverse:
See my signature. :)

What flavor of MIUI you like , depends on you (just like everything else of course!), but I am sooooo happy with MIUI, it's the best ROM I've ever used, and trust me, I tried a lot of them ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shapanor:
Running Supernova at the moment. So far am really impressed with the speed and stability. Went on without a problem and has allowed me to restore all my old apps with Titanium and install several new ones (with 850 meg spare so far). Just read and follow the instructions carefully and it should be ok.

PVT4 Erase 40000

S-Off + Root

8gig Class 4 Sandisk (1gig Ext 4)

Stock HBoot
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
Yes it did ;)

When he first wrote the ROM he said you had to be S-OFF on the stock Bravo data structure.

Dead giveaway.

Anyway, apologise for my attitude, but I didn't take too kindly to being spoken to in a condescending manner. I'm more than willing to learn, but I didn't make a mistake in S-OFFing my phone as wmjam's original thread did call for it :)

If you note, I did say that you don't need S-OFF for data2EXT

I wouldn't have said so, I think the mimimum most rom's suggest is 1GB. I know the wmjam ROM I'm using offloads a lot of the system apk's onto the data partition upon installation. I set it to 1.5GB (like this FAT32 + 1.5GBEXT +300mb EXT+ 100mb Linux Swap) and after installation around 600mb was already taken up.

So, I'd do 1GB mimimum. You don't need to set up like I have too. I was just already set like that so I went ahead (couldn't be arsed running gparted again)
