This seems very normal.

You have to remember that 1gb is being used for ext

Some little extra is used under formatting

As for internal memory this is also normal as you installed the ROM with 177mb partition and the ROM used 50 in installation.

All normal mate don't worry :)

Hi marcusloosewire99,

thanks alot for your support.

That's what daddy wanted to hear - so its the seventh (of eight) device where it works like a charm.

I think this annoying beep was my "out of memory" monitoring notification - and i will make it a on/off preference option on final release.

I am still awaing the test results of two other guys, then i think i'll release it tomorrow.

I will talk to Danny if he would like to see its release in a seperate thread or within this one as it.

And ... maybe he is willing to cook DalvikMover into his next release :rolleyes:

Btw.: The style of the screenshots of course differs from the one in your beta release, since i modified the style to make it look a bit more pro :D

If you want to get this release, please get the updated version from the link i gave you :)

I really appreciate you testing - thank you very much, mate :)

Yours, Stephan

Looks like I was the only one with problems then, Stephan. Good news for you. :D

Dan, may I suggest that in order to reduce the overall size of the ROM in any future build, you include an option to move all audio files to sd card. I always delete all audio files prior to flashing (already on sd card) and manage to get away with a 7/152/7 partition. This will help those people who either want to move dalvik to internal memory or just want more memory for additional apps. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brush2:
Hey sandymac :)

Yeah, really strange why you got these problems. But i don't want to say it's not reasoned by the app.

Thats why we call it beta testing and i am happy for every information.

So i really appreciate your support on this!

Thank you, Sandy

DalvikMover for TMOUS?

Hi guys,

i have some (maybe) stupid questions about the TMOUS version of HD2 regarding DalvikMover.

Because i own the EU version of it, i don't know anything about it's default system folder structure.

I am only asking because it would make sense to move dalvik cache to device memory, if not already by default!

If dalvik on TMOUS is located on /sd-ext by default like in EU version, TMOUS owners would benefit of a "fast dalvik" on /data as well.

Here my questions:

Is dalvik cache located on phone memory in TMOUS devices in this Rom?

If not, how much average space is left on /data after flashing this Rom?

Does the TMOUS version use /sd-ext for system file storage, such as sys-parts, framework?

Thanks in advance,

Regards, Stephan

Awesome Rom but getting slow

Hi guys I have flashed this brilliant 3.7 stock version

My config

7/172/7

2gb sd etx4

512mb swap

TMOUS

32gb micro sdhc transcend class 4

Ocked to 1305 mhz

sd boost 4096 k cache

80+ apps installed restored using titanium pro then wip dalvik and fix permissions done

Now the rom runs smooooth

but at times it becomes very slow and laggy otherwise everything is fine. I am using system tuner pro with autokill option set to very agressive

Please advise

Before install i followed this

Winmo 6.5 > Task 29 > flash 7/172/7 recovery by clicking daf.exe and then installed the rom

Please help

Thank you

T-Mo, sig stats, 3.7 = AWESOME rom! Been using for several days and it still gives me no lag or trouble. My issue below is really making me sad I cant fix this...

-----

Just want to bring up the GPS issue again.

The GPS will connect fine to like 8/8 under gps status app, and it will navigate fine in maps - navigation. But after maybe 5-10 min of using it, it will just 'lose' signal. Going down the highway, or stopped even, not under a bridge/tunnel O_o

I turn off GPS, turn it back on, back out of navigation and when maps pops up the gps re-scans. Reconnects, then i go repeat it all over again, maybe it losing signal after 1 min, or 5...its random.

Anyway, trying to drive for my job and the navi is making it hard lol. But this rom is perfect otherwise so I cant leave lol. But tried uninstalling maps but being a sys app I guess it doesnt like to be completely removed.

Just a heads up if someone plans on using it, try it first see if you have any problem before you go out ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] uwo83m:
Used to have this as well on stock 3.6 but since 3.7 is the bug fixed for me also on stock...

A really great Rom from dansta...Thank you

I couldn't use it on 3.6 for a long time because of the sms issue for me but 3.7 is perfect :) no sms issues anymore...

Only angry birds space gives me force closes... :) but not a huge problem.

Anyone else on this?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
You could try reducing sd boost and also OC until lag stops. I leave all on default and no lag. Also, I never use autokill programs as they are more trouble than they are worth. :D

---------- Post added at 09:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------

Sounds like low RAM problem. :D

---------- Post added at 09:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 AM ----------

Stephan, I'm sure Dan or a TMOUS user will correct me if I am wrong but the TMOUS guys have 2 options when installing the ROM.

If they create an sd-ext then the ROM will install same as a Euro with Dalvik and apps on sd-ext therefore the folder structure will be identical to the EU.

If, however, they don't create an sd-ext and use the correct partition (obviously) then everything is installed on internal memory, including dalvik.

Benefit as I see it for TMOUS users using the sd-ext will be to have dalvik on internal memory and apps on sd-card. This being the best of both worlds. What you need is a TMOUS with an EU setup to test and report back. :D

---------- Post added at 10:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 AM ----------

Alex, no offence but couldn't resist making the comment. Call me old fashioned but personally I don't like Sense 4 so no point in doing it as I don't benefit. :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
I did have the rom setup like that on a version in the past but the issue with that was the media files would not show on the tmo setup! But ill try do something with the script or in the aroma installer to give you guys that option!

Ill look into it!

you just answered your own question! " I am using system tuner pro with autokill option set to very agressive" The rom has mods already in the initd.gz for autokill, so system tuner pro could be causing issues!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brush2:
Hi sandymac,

sounds good - i am not sure if there's a reason to move dalvik from phone to /sd-ext for TMOUS owners,

since it appears to me like installing rectangular tires on a bicycle - in hope to be faster this way.

But ok - some TMOUS owner might see a reason to do so... :D

To be serious again; DalvikMover is already prepared to work on such environments - but of course only if a /sd-ext exists.

Yours, Stephan

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 PM ----------

Hi Dan,

i might been wrong, but i think you only have to create a folder structure on SD card like this:

/mnt/sdcard/media/audio/
........................alarms/
........................notifications/
........................ringtones/

filled with the sounds ofc, which will be included in audio file database.

Yours, Stephan
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Stephan, what I was saying is that if a TMOUS user opts to install as per an EU setup with sd-ext then dalvik is moved to sd-ext by default. Your program will allow the TMOUS user to move it back to /data. I may be wrong but hopefully Dan or a TMOUS user will confirm. :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] carl1961:
Some where in this thread is the 04ap2sd that keeps dalvik in nand .
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
This must be something due to the HD2 GPS Chip and drivers as the same thing is happening on Navigon Select in WP7, although by far not as frequently. Also, in WP7 it is enough to quit the App and bring it back up to fix it, whereas in Android and Navigon i had to restart the phone in earlier releases and since crypted came up with the tweaked config i can fix it by restarting the app. I have also noticed this in Sygic Aura occasionally and very rarely in Google Navigation, in Igo all i experienced was short drops of signal, but it would always come right back.

I am not too sure what that is but i think some GPS info must be flooding something and not be cleared right so it cloggs up at some point and begins to fail.

I have pretty much given up on the issue as it seems like noone will ever really work on that and find out whats going on. Especially since i have seen that also WP7 suffers from that i think it's something in the base drivers which are sort of the same on both plattforms ( i think, not sure) so it'd be something only people like cotulla could actually work on. I think it needs some driver reverse engineering at least to see whats going on.

After all, there still is that GB Bug which could also be the reason for this to happen.

All in all a very annoying issue without an apparent solution.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
What makes it even crazier is that I've never had GPS problems, regardless of what program I run. Just born lucky, I guess. :D This then points to hardware and revisions of chips. It is very likely that some are not working within their stated tolerance and therefore the GPS is crashing. ;)

thanks alot you both...

my sd partitioned with 256 swap..is that ok or i have to change it to 128?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
That is ok mate, the ROM will hardly ever use the full 128mb space, so 256 is too big and a waste of space, but it will still work. Not a problem. You only have to change it if you want the space back.

[EDIT]

Sorry, forgot to say: you might want to install Terminal Emulator from the market. If you do, you can launch it, then type into the console: "su" to grant superuser permissions to the app, then type in "free" and it will show you how much of your swap partition is being used.

Repeat that every now and again, especially when doing a lot of multitasking (many apps open) and see how the ROM is using the Swap. Learn from it. It will give u an idea on how much swap you actually need.

Oh, those commands, type them without the quotes of course.

and make sure your keyboard is not in caps mode, the terminal only understands small letters.

Hi Ralfjai,

for TBD ROM you need to flash a recovery with NAND Partitions of 7/172/7 or for TmoUS phone 7/277/7 megabytes of size.

Carl1961 published an installation manual, which seems to be up to date.

Please use this documentation to install it - but with NAND Partition size of 7/172/7 or for TmoUS phone 7/277/7 megabytes.

Good luck,

Hello :)

I have a question, size my dalvik cache is 221 MB it is normal?

Thanx :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brush2:
Hi zulwik,

did you mean while using DalvikMover and dalvik cache on /data?

If yes, it's like i wrote in DalvikMover post:

You have reduce the count of installed apps, or move back dalvik cache to /sd-ext if Android nags around about "low memory".

Please try to have at least 30MB free space on /data when dalvik cache on /data, or it might lag your device.

Regards, Stephan
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zulwik:
Exactly but I have 221 MB Dalvik cache on \sd ext, but on \data i have only 95 MB Free memory.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] marcusloosewire99:
Hi all.

some advice please. I am technically competent to flash a new rom in about 20 minutes or so, task 29, etc.

I have removed all the audio, but not UI sounds to the SD card and have used a 7/152/7 partition for EU rom.

I beta tested Dalvik mover and it worked a treat. I would now like to experiment in making the installation partition smaller to make better use of Dalvik mover, as i always seem very close to the 30mb mark and get the low memory warning.

I am happy removing unwanted app's via 7 zip etc, but how do I tell how small the rom partition needs to be once I remove unwanted apps etc, is it just trail and error or is there a more accurate method.

your advice would be much appreciated.

marcusloosewire99
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brush2:
free space

So that's correct, you might have not enough free space on /data to move dalvik cache there, until you remove some apps to get more free space on /data!

Thanks dansta for new version
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brush2:
custom Rom

Hi marcus,

how are you?

I am not a ROM chef - but since there's no reply on your question i think there will be only one option atm.

You will have to flash your custom rom - since file blocksize on "PC" presumably will differ from the file blocksize of (device) installation targets /data, /sd-ext/app and /sd-ext/sys-parts.

Check in terminal for diskusage of /sd-ext
# su
# du -csk /sd-ext/
and for /root something like
# du -csk /
But this of course depends on which partitions are relevant to you.

The second part is to use this partition sizes in flash.cfg (DAF.exe)

This is just an idea, and i might been wrong - but it's the only hint i have atm.

I hope i am not telling b*llsh*t, but since i don't know if you use a kitchen(does kitchen not have an option regarding this?)

this might be a way.

Yours, Stephan
