Can anyone confirm a successful conversion to ext4?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sirilpta:
Can you mention all the steps that you carried out to convert to ext4 and all the errors encountered by you...?

send from gt-i9003 using android keyboard
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] harshs23:
Steps I took till where I got -

1) XXKPE via odin

2) ddkp3 (twice) via odin

3) Universal cf root

4) installed addon apk and tried conversion, all partitions except system got converted

5) tried skins ext4 script after ddkp3 nandroid but after conversion refused to restore the system partition and hence as there was no option, restored my ddkp2 backup which was ext4.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sirilpta:
You can see that our phones system storage space is about 324mb. When you deodex there will be some amount of mb of free space. As you said that the error is not enough space i think its related to deodexing. But not sure.

Try to convert to ext4 after deodexing. I know this makes no sense. But you can try it...

Most important bug: Is the push mail or push message synchronization issue fixed on this version?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
Unfortunately not, users those who have updated have reported that same bug still exist.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] harshs23:
anyone successfully converted to ext4 on DDKP3, please confirm.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] shailm_85:
the app u r talking about is an addon not cf-root u will have to Flash "bagaria-09.GT-I9003_PDA.tar" as a PDA using Odin software

that app is for Converting Stock "rfs" file system to "Ext4" file system.

But before doing all this Backup as much as you can & Most important u will have to learn about flashing, Roms, etc.

also i wouldn't recommend Converting to EXT4 just yet.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
I was one of the lucky with no push bug (KPQ - cf-root by amit). Now, suddently, whatsapp stopped working properly. Gmail worked for some days. (I think I reinstall everything when I'll have some spare time and see if it'll fix this [I changed a lot of things on my phone and probably the problems are a consequence of all the changes]). However only Gmail and whatsapp have push problems.

That said, try to see if other apps have this problem too.

Here some apps that work fine for me: K9mail, Facebook messenger, Facebook (for this one push notifications work thanks to an old trick, search for: "blackberry android facebook push")
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] marselcj:
@Namaless, please answer to my post!! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Namaless:
Use this guide:

- Install xxkpe with latona.pit and repartition enabled.

- Install ddkp3 without repartition.

Stop, try with this procedure.. the kernel stock is the original kernel found in stock rom, in this example is ddkp3 kernel :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] marselcj:
Ok, thank you!

I have flashed DDKB3 over XXKPQ and maybe this created a conflict...I don't know.

I will try as you said.:)

Maybe namaless is one of those lucky people for whom it works by default! I'll wait for someone who had this bug to really confirm whether push is fixed in deep sleep.

To you not working, use stock kernel? You has factory reset before? If to many people working, you have a problem, not problem related to rom :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] progitto:
Just checked completely stock firmware and then with amit universal root. In both case push notification (i've tested with gmail and gtalk stock applications) won't work. My network operator are 3IT and WindIT.

As written in other threads probably this bug is not in the kernel but in the framework, indeed CM9 and MIUI seems to be not affected by this.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] marselcj:
Yes, I use stock kernel. I did a hard reset before flash XXKPE stock with latona, did hart reset again and then I have flashed DDKB3 stock. No CWM, just DDKB3. Hard reset again, and that's it.

I have the Gmail sync issue on 3G network on every GGB firmware, but not on Froyo firmwares.

My network is Orange, Romania coyntry.

So, I think there is no more think I can do to fix this problem.

Thanks to all!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Namaless:
MIUI and CM9 get same problem, I have already tested and not working push notifications.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] harshs23:
Can you please confirm your steps of flashing, are you using Amit's CF root or Skin's, did you deodex first? Really appreciate your response, can't figure what's wrong. Please confirm.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Namaless:
It's simple:

- Install xxkpe with latona (re-partition).

- Install ddkp3

Try push notifications. For me working, I'm try xxkb3 for check the time for push notifications.. it's same time, 5/10 seconds after send email.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] harshs23:
That's what I tried twice -

1) XXKPE with PIT

2) DDKP3 twice

3) Universal CF Root (latest) - Amit

4) ext4 addon apk

5) tried converting to ext4 but after backing up system partition and converting to ext4 the restore of system partition fails with error message - not enough space? rolling back to rfs starts..............

Then I tried the above process with XXKPQ but surprisingly resulted in the same thing.

All other partitions get converted successfully except system.

As of not am on DDKP3 rfs, could it be that the latest kernel has ext4 support issues for system partition?

Am waiting for Ganesh's version, will backup and retry the above process with the skins ext4 script and see how it goes.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
You're just suppose to flash xxkpe twice, not ddkp3, as it may be partition wrongly. That's the only reason for flashing xxkpe twice with pit file.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] harshs23:
Well some say XXKPE twice and some say the single PDA file twice, I've started flashing them both twice, maybe overkill but it works for me. :D

Update -

followed the same flashing procedure as listed twice before in the thread, the only difference was the CFRoot kernel, this time tried Ganesh's DDKP3 version released today and the ext4 conversion went through without a hitch via the ext4 script. :):):):):)

It's the latest CFRoot by Amit, that's the possible culprit, does not have ext4 support, may have been missed during compilation.

@Namaless , push notification bug has not been solved. I have been trying it for some days and no notifications in whatsapp, which is the most important for me. I also tried VurrutRom v1 [KP3], which consists in kp3, deodex, ext4, some interesting apps and las VurrutKer... and nothing... Is the same as always...

BUT, there is an interesting thing. Yesterday I opened samsung apps and it directly updated something... "samsung push service" but no asking me. It did in his own. I went to /data/app and it was there. It is a samsung patch to solve push problem. I will tell you how is it going and how battery drains.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] progitto:
It's not a patch for the firmware, it's a samsung bloatware related to their samsung app store.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] progitto:
So this is not a patch, push notification must be fully functional in deep sleep.

There are some program in the market that are designed to prevent the phone to go in deep sleep, i don't think that we need also this one from Samsung :)

For the notification can be useful JuiceDefender that can force app sync process at scheduled intervals, obivously this is not push notification but can be a resonable workaround for now.

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

Try two install two times the XXKPE firmware, remember to repartition; then wipe all from recovery, then flash KP3.

After this you can flash the kernel as PDA via Odin.

Check also the md5 of your download, a corrupted donwloaded file can be the cause of some problem like the one that you are experiencing.

Have you tried before a overclocked kernel? It's possible that your CPU can't manage correctly the increased frequency

Flash DDKP3

Its very difficult to flash???

I just flash on PDA via odin (even my previously rom from dxkp9)

After i complete flash, sure keep looping samsung logo then i remove battery.

Just hold volume up , home and power button for recovery mode..

Just factory reset. (b4 do this copy all ur internal sd card to ur pc 1st for backup)
