I already said this before I do not recommend superwipe, the rom itself has its own fullwipe built in which is done before flashes the rom, you should know that since you see the process being done while it's being flashed, do you have ext and swap partitions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
Superwipe is a myth, there's really no need to use it and when I use to use it on my G1 it always cauused issues. Just wipe with recovery if you need to wipe, data factory reset.

Yep! I got a 128mb ext partition and 256mb swap. I removed all people from my home and got about 1 hour left before sleep :p so I will try again without superwipe :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I hope you know that 128mb of ext will run out fast. I don't know if I put the requirements in the first post or not but you are required to have at least 1gb of ext and 256mb of swap
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SnowOokami:
hahah that might explain why it stopped restoring files :p:eek::rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Maybe, butbi still believe superwipe is causing issues
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
A ext and swap partition are not required to run this rom, but if you choose to utilize the patch you have to meet those requirements. 1gb ext partition. You don't have to use swap either but 256mb swap is recommended.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SnowOokami:
So if I don't flash the pershoot kernel it won't (try to) use the ext/swap partitions on my sdcard? I rather leave them to be unused than to remove them or change their sizes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I'm telling you by what I've seen to be honest

Ext/swap is better than internal storage, but if that's your choice then that's fine
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SnowOokami:
Okay! I totally wiped my phone including the SD card, created a 1024mb sd-ext ext4 partition and a 256mb swap. It seems to be working fine now! :D restoring my applications now and Ti seems to be working fine this time :cool:

I will let you know later today.

edit: wow! fast! and all my applications are restored!!

thanks for the help :-) I will give you some more feedback if I got some lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ernestnwanu:
I noticed you need 1gb of ext partition.. I use the 4EXT Recovery. Does that mean I need 512 for both partitions? It offers two partitions.. Or should I just pick 1024 for both? Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SnowOokami:
SD-EXT1 = 1024mb

SD-EXT2 = skip

SWAP = 256mb

:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
I'm working on a few recoveries for g2 that will support ext4 but not based on 4EXT recovery. I just have to finish up my last one out of three recoveries I'm making for the evo shift then I'll put them on rom manager.

Thanks for the feed back lol. It might get better soon who knows

I'm thinking of what else to do to it

I do miss my g2 though lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EndOfSource:
Stuid question I think but...where can I download it ?

Just installed the ROM...runs faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast (:

I'd love the "trackpad wake"-feature.

Alright so I opened up a testing thread for my recoveries here:

Currently I have only built one recovery but I am planning on building a lot more different themed versions of it once this one is tested and confirmed working.

I have a 32gb class 10 card... does making the swap file 1024mb improve its ability to use the sd card as a page-file type ram reserve, or is there no reason to go beyond 256mb?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
I just made a new recovery that allows partitioning to 512mb swap, let me know if your interested in testing it for me. I also fixed the screenshots in the general section testing thread. I have 512mb swap and it works great.

Also if you guys like the rom please rate it! Three stars is like a insult to this rom i.m.o.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SnowOokami:
Indeed it's a fast ROM! I just got one issue... sometimes when you press on a icon to start an application it takes like 3 secs to react! After that it's really fast.

Is that caused by the class 4 card I got?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
Could be animations. Download spareparts from the market if the rom doesn't have it and disable animations and it should speed up a lot.

As I saw a new miui build out so will I release a new build by Sunday if I'm not busy
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I will make this table if someone can do a backup of the next build and gives me the boot.img file that comes from the backup and with pershoot kernel flashed
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
I already compiled Pershoot kernel into G2 cm7, I'll pm it to you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ernestnwanu:
I'm willing to if no one else will. Loving this rom.

EDIT: One question: Does the use of 1GB ext partitioning mean I need to pick a higher setting than usual in the V6 Supercharger script? Thanks.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I need to look at the supercharger script then ill include it into the script
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
I noticed if has some ram stuff in it. As long as it doesn't interfere with all the current mods for swap and vm it should be fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ernestnwanu:
Any word on this? Still looking for that boot.img?

Sent from my Desire Z running MIUI.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
I think blahbl4hblah already has it if he's had time to get it. It's in the latest pyromod rom nightly the one that's based on cm7.2.0. But if you really want pershoot kernel just flash it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I won't be needing it anymore since I want to test something later today. I won't be able to dev that much to due personal reasons for a few days. I'll try to get the rom out before tonight
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
If I have time later I'll post a flashable patch to fix swap. I've pretty much finished up some of my other projects for the most part.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lowlife546:
this rom is dope

i was reluctant to try this rom bc i saw this thread had 3 stars for a while. Finally decided to give it a go after reading some of the comments and I gotta say I'm lovin it so far. Definitely deserves 5 stars. Only problem i've encountered thus far is the music app force closes and then wont work again until after a reboot. But this rom is blazing fast and gotta be one of the best I've tried. Thanks for the awesome rom

Swap Patch update For Miui PyroMod beta

Alright here's a flashable zip with Pershoot's kernel and swap scripts to utilize swap partition for. You still don't need a swap partition to be able to flash this patch update if you just want a good clean install of Pershoot's kernel. This will wipe cache's but not a full wipe so all your apps/data ect will still be there when your phone boots up. Just give it time to boot because depending on how many apps your have installed the longer boot will take.

More info:

[*]Pershoot's kernel is included in this Patch which does support swap and seems to be really usefull when using Apps2ext and running heavy loads or memory intensive apps.

GPL Kernel sources:

Pershoot's xda G2 kernel thread

All kernel discussions should be on his thread and not this one.

Kernel source code
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lowlife546:
I'm a little confused I thought swap was working before as long as u flashed pershoot's kernel? In ADB shell when I run "free" it looks like the swap partition is being used.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
This kernel is sparksco's kernel
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
It's just pershoot's stock kernel that supports swap but if it's working that's great but swappiness won't be set so swap probably won't work very good. If you flash the .zip swap should work a lot better.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lowlife546:
thanks gonna try it out and i'll report back after using it today
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ernestnwanu:
Flashed the patch. The rom is flying. Thanks.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lowlife546:
Indeed it does seem to utilize swap better after applying the patch. Also battery life is phenomenal with this rom. After 10 hrs still above 50%.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Okay guys be ready for stable, official eta is unknown still haha
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
Just wait blahbl4hblah and I are testing some new mods that should make the roms even better haha.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Now that I'm done with working on my sensation, I can focus on G2 again

Just be patient :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lowlife546:
Can't wait to see what you guys got for us in the stable build. The beta is already running super smooth. Even flashed it on my gf's g2. She was running cm 7.1 rc1 and doesn't like me changing anything on her phone, but she's very happy with this rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jivebunny:
Loving it so far, running pershoot with swap kernel and it's the smoothest I've had! And I've run quite a few ROMS... *thumbs up*!

EDIT: And the battery life is also very nice!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Redmed427:
Anyone go from ILWT to this? I'm getting excellent battery life and would like a change up for a while. But battery life must be comparable. Needs to last at least 10 hours with heavy use. About 3 hours of display use time
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
You'll get more life from this rom. I think I remember seeing someone say that they got about 10 hours and still 50% on heavy use. But everyone's experience may be different so why not try something different
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Redmed427:
Flashing now. Will post back with my usage time and stuff
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jivebunny:
Mileage may vary but I got 35% left at this moment on 11 hours avg. to heavy use. Still decent if you ask me, especially with this responsiveness. Not running stock kernel btw.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Everyone wants this stable soon well you'll get it soon as I will release one either tonight or tomorrow
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
Yeah the battery life should improve some more for the stable version depending on if blahbl4hblah adds in some good kernel tweaks. We'll look at the kernel source and see what types of things we can change around to make the battery last with still good performance. But remember that we need you guys to help report how the rom is running on each release so we can try to improve things. Thanks for all the feedback so far to everyone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickeedoo:
Downloading and will test it tomorrow, I'll post back with my comments. On another note, I have a really big problem with my phone. Battery reads are all over the place, and it only ever charges to 70-80%. Bad battery or some calibration garbage? I flashes roms a lot, but should that cause this?

Do you guys experience quite a bit of lag on this phone? I suggested this phone to a friend of mine on T-mo who insisted on having a keyboard.

She complains that her phone lags quite a bit and when she was showing me it, it does have a lot of lag.

Going through different home pages, there's a noticeable twitch as the transition is not smooth.

Main complaint is when playing games like fruit ninja, you can't really go through a game with out it freezing for a second or two. Once it completely froze on her.

Any possible fix without Root, since I dont wanna go through all that haha

I know I read reviews on this phone being quite fast so I dont really know what the problem is.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
She's better off rooting. You can get rid of all the bloatware that way.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tankmaster90:
In that case whats the most stable ROM here?? That will be the most important as I'm sure most custom ROM's will speed up her phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
Ummm i would send it back and get another. I noticed no difference in my games when i debloated and i never have had issues like what your friend is having.

Ive have games since day one like: order and chaos, sentienl 3, need for speed shift, heavy gunner, sim city deluxe and many more

I GET ZERO LAG. The games i just listed have intense graphic rendering as well, much more than fruit ninja. I got this phone for the original purpose of gaming over the g2x. If my phone had an ounce of lag it would be replaced lol.

Could of got some bad chips.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
+1, I had no problems playing Fruit Ninja and Veggie Samurai, among other games, pre-root. See if you can get a replacement.

Of course, rooting and installing a ROM would be a good alternative to try. I'm currently using Bulletproof and I think it's pretty snappy.

Good luck =D.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Another thing could be to check for background processes from additionally installed apps from the market, but i guess you already checked that. There are some badly written apps obviously.

My phone has been very stable, only lagging when I use transitions for the first time upon boot up. I'm very pleased with it, actually.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
Dude, rooting is super easy. This may be the easiest phone I've ever had to root. There are several excellent guides here.

For stability, I highly recommend bulletproof 1.1. Undeads roms are excellent too, but imo generally are not as stable.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tankmaster90:
Well I may root it later but I told her to take it back.

I played fruit ninja on her phone for a bit to test it out. About 2 or 3 times the screen became unresponsive for a few seconds and then the swipes would lag the fruits would lag and be normal. Also a few times a menu thing popped up on fruit ninja asking me if i wanted to turn down the graphics of the game.

So there must be something wrong cause this is suppose to be a quite powerful phone from what I read and what you guys are telling me.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernodemon2005:
I have no problems with fruit ninja with my rom.

I don't know if you guys go to the actual site or not. If not, then you really need to. These guys make the best games for Android period, and now you can download tons of their games for our Revo's. Just go to the website, select the game you want, then use the drop down menus to select the carrier and phone model (listed as LG VS910, not LG Revolution).

Hi,

This is a small TOOL to UnPack and RePack mtz files for lockscreen editing.

I have found a thread in which OP has started resizing mtz lockscreen themes (MiLocker) for LDPI/MDPI.

This process involves unzipping couple of files, editing xml file & images and re-zipping them. So, for testing all this process is a hectic, i thought to have a tool which can do this process automated.

changelog V2:

can pull mtz files from sdcard

can push repacked mtz files to sdcard

Repack BUG fixed.

changelog V1:

Initial Release

1. Unpack mtz

2. Repack mtz

More versions will be coming soon but i need your inputs and suggestions for that.

I wrote a program which can resize the images based on percentage given...

And also found a logic to edit the manifest file. It almost gets resized but still some has to be done manually...

Can anyone help me out with some logic...???
[Android Themes] mutia:
first blood. downloading...

thank you ;)

----

report

after unpacked the mtz, the all image file in lockscreen/advance cant show. why?
[Android Themes] bittu4u4ever:
No they show up properly for me...

Double check your mtz file... else can u send me the mtz file so dat i can test...
[Android Themes] RockoDev:
one the mtz in lockscreen didnt show the images but the other mtz worked fine whats recomended to resize lock screen for hdpi
[Android Themes] bittu4u4ever:
So the problem might be with the original images in the mtz file... bcoz im jus unzipping them not dealing with the images...

for lockscreen resize u need to change the x and y values in manifest.xml file... and also resize the images for your screen resolution.

Thats all i can say now for resizing...
[Android Themes] pshemo:
Nice, but I don't know why it doesn't work for me. I changed one number in manifest.xml and the lockscreen theme doesn't work. It looks like the screen is blocked but there's no lockscreen. Even if delete it, cleare cache, uninstall and instal MILocker again. I can't even get original lockscreen working. I was playing with the "Zipper" it wouln't unlock screen even if I unziped it to the very bottom of the screen. It took several times it to unlock. I tried to change the length, so that it would unlock a bit earlier. It says it is applied, however can't see it where unlock screen should be.
[Android Themes] ljyudha:
i think your syntax is incorrect because everytime i repack it's always say like that. and all file that i was edited is been delete and nothing file in repacked_mtz folder. i love your idea please fix this

NB: file in lockscreen can't edit :(
[Android Themes] bittu4u4ever:
The number you have changed might not work with the screen... Try lowering your number by 50% for ldpi screen.

I used this tool and successfully changed a lockscreen to fit my wildfire screen...
[Android Themes] bittu4u4ever:
You need to follow these steps to edit and repack your lockscreen.

Note: Use v2

1. (option s) to select a file. (if you donot have files in orig_mtz folder you can connect your phone and use pull mtz files option 3 and use option s)

2. after selecting a mtz file use option 1 to unpack your mtz file.

Note: donot close the tool.

3. now you may edit your files manifest.xml and resize images

Note: if you have closed the tool reopen it and select the mtz file that you have edited using option s.

4. now use option 2 to repack your changed files and the repacked file with your changes is found in repacked_mtz folder.

5. you can now copy the repacked mtz file to sdcard/MIUI/theme or use option 4 to push the selected mtz file to phone.

I have tried the same and successfully resized one lockscreen...
[Android Themes] PcFish:
What percentage should I use for MDPI
