Please use Google translator to translate from your native language to English, no offense but I got a headache trying to decipher what you said and like everyone else all I could make out was your phone doesn't work and your carrier couldn't help, which is obviously because they dont carry the device, my suggestion would be find someone who can flash the phone to your carrier for you or buy a phone that belongs on your carriers network and follow an online guide to donate the phones info to the evo to get it working

Hi

i'm trying to use DT a2sd, it moves succesfully apps to sd, and also caches to sd, but when i enter "datasd" command it prints out several lines too fast and then restarts, but after restart when i enter "check" command it says that datas are on internal memory. how can i diagnose that, or what is the problem?

at least, where are the log files?

also, is it possible to move datas but not cache?

thanx for all :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
Just download a2sd gui from market, it's app made by darktremor to configure the script.

Easier and less hassle than command line, btw this thread should be in Q&A.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmad598:
sorry for posting in wrong place.

but i have a2sdgui and it doesn't have datasd function. am i wrong?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRSolebum:
It is there but, you have to activate advanced settings or something similar, not quite sure how it is called. But I wouldn't recommend it data doesn't consume much space and moving it to SD will slowdown your device.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmad598:
i can't find it, even when i press menu button nothing happens. is there anything wrong with my device? i'm running a2sdgui 1.0 on latest miui.

i have near 90 apps installed (beside system apps) and when i chose to move & rebuild dalvik cache to internal memory, 110mb of data moved to internal. is it unusual? this is my current situation, according to titanium backup:

system ROM: 262mb total -- 122 mb free
internal: 154 mb total -- 16.9 mb free
sd card: 14.7 gb total -- 5.02 gb free
sd card (a2sd): 1.05 gb total -- 888 mb free

i think the ratio of used space on sd-ext to used space on internal memory must be more than this, am i wrong?

if i'm right, and there is a problem with a2sd functioning, then these things happened to me to get me here: i set upped a2sd with apps on sd, and i had near 800mb of apps on sd, and internal nearly full. then i decided to move cache to sd to get more space on internal, but my system slowed down and i was forced to move cache back to internal, but surprisingly it had no space. after several data/app wipes and reinstalls, i still have problems like above. what should i do, and what is wrong?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Any DATA2SD cannot be used "on top" of any A2SD-script because they work too different:

DATA2SD-script moves all internal data (/data-partition) to an EXT-partition of your SD Card. The size of this EXT-partition is now the size of your internal memory.​

A2SD-script moves all apps you install automatically to an EXT-partition of your SD Card. (but some app-data still remains in internal memory). With A2SD+ Dalvik Cache will also be moved to that EXT-partition. The size of internal memory does not change.​

Result: You have to choose if you want to use DATA2SD or A2SD/A2SD+. If both scripts are available for your Rom, I recommend to make this decicison conditional on the class of your SD card: If it has Class 4 or less, choose A2SD/A2SD+. If it has Class 6 or higher, choose DATA2SD.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmad598:
thanx for your info, but i'm not trying to use different scripts; it's only one script (darktremor's apps2sd, installed by default on miui) that has an explicit command for moving data to sd ("datasd" command).

i'm suspicious of a problem: i think there are some duplicate/legacy data here; i mean maybe in these processes of consequent moves, there are some data remaining from apps that are not installed anymore, or there are some duplicate ones due to currently installed apps. can this be the problem? because i have used backup ability of miui by itself, and maybe it causes these problems.

also to note: i've flashed again my rom, installing apps one by one without backup, and before installing them i've entered

a2sd install

command. after install, there was only near 18mb space remaining on internal. then i entered

a2sd datasd

and i then i had 60mb space on internal. but when i enter

a2sd check

it says me that data are not on sd. what the hell is going on, i don't know.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:

PART2

95allinone

This will provide a complete collection of tweaks avaiable, i hate this becouse, a lot of tweaks here are not implemented correctly , like:

#Part below here edited by me (changed values) Credits to Juwe11
if [ -e /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj ]; then
echo "0,1,2,4,6,15" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj
fi

if [ -e /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree ]; then
echo "2560,4096,5632,10240,11776,14848" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
fi

if [ -e /proc/sys/vm/swappiness ]; then
echo "20" > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
fi

zOOM zOOM :

echo "2560,4096,5632,10240,11776,14848" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

This is the same things that do superchanger, but this will be wrost for our phone IMHO

echo "20" > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

the right value ( in my cases ) is 0, i haven't swap of anyway we dont have to have a swap!

Zipalign Runtime, it will just implemented by a lot of script, this is also the wrost IMHO zip align script i've never seen

for k in $(busybox mount | grep relatime | cut -d " " -f3) ; do
sync;
busybox mount -o remount,noatime $k;
done;

this will break 00remount script

for i in /sys/block/*/queue/scheduler ; do
echo "noop" > $i;
done;

if kernel support i suggest deadline

# Tweak kernel VM management
echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
echo 10 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio
echo 4096 > /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes

??? WHAT? again?

echo "interactive" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo "cfq" > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/scheduler

see upper

echo "deadline" > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/scheduler

What? another change?

this is good:

# Copyright @ CRANIUM ROM
echo "500" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs
echo "1000" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs

#End Cranium Tweaks

Conclusion: 95allinone is simply a addiction of all tweaks avaiable in one script without any review and improves for our phone ( in this case, this work ), this will only increase the boot time and break others tweaks installed ( some )

99V6_Superchanger

DO NOT USE THIS, THIS IS EPIC FAIL INIT.D SCRIPT!

mount -o remount,rw /system
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock6 /system

*facepalm*

in my terminal:

# su
# ls -la /dev/block/mtd*
ls: /dev/block/mtd*: No such file or directory

anyway this is not init.d script, this is v6 script , this is not compatible with init.d ,
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] luiseteyo:
Wow!! very good thread!! I am setting up a custom rom, could u tell me what of these could give my rom a better battery life? Thank u man!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] shy.less:
Battery life is influence by:

Running Apps

Governors do you use

Memory Manager ( #1 addicted )

If you set /etc/init.d script to set conservative governor and implemented v6 without any stupid app like facebook or bloatware samsung, and your battery seems infinite :D

in the past i used SCH Rom , its used only v6 and most important tweaks , without any stupid bloatware, battery seems very infinite ^^ like 2% in 5 hours under 2G network
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] luiseteyo:
Ok, sorry for my noob question but I am learning a lot of things this days.. where can I find a tutorial about how to set a governor or a frecuency by default in my kernel? Thank u very much
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] shy.less:
I'm noob too

for frequency are too kernel releated to be generalized,

or if you using XDA_Bam kernel

39frequency

#!/system/bin/sh
echo "300" > /sys/power/overclock_opp1
echo "600" > /sys/power/overclock_opp2
echo "800" > /sys/power/overclock_opp3
echo "1000" > /sys/power/overclock_opp4

anyway you can create init.d script like

40governorbattery

with:

#!/system/bin/sh
echo "conservative" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

and see if it stick ^^

Hi.

Are there codes that can remove or dissable the TouchUI aka TouchWiz interface on the i9003 and just use the android deffult launcher?

Another thing something that will easy-up my ram usage and allow more usable ram?

If so how do i implement them?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mhrlive:
I just want to add a cool sound and audio tweaks using MagaBassBeats_Mod

First download the MagaBassBeats_Mod_9003.zip file from the xda forum.

Now copy it to the sdcard.

Reboot to the recovery mode.

Now select install from zip file and chose internal sdcard.

Search for the zip file, hit power button, and chose yes.

That's it now you can enjoy a great sound quality.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
I shall try to explain the situation best I can.

A long time back, I rooted my S2, then I thought I would sell it, so I wanted to put it back to stock and unroot, which I did.

Now months later, I decided to root the phone once again and put another rom on.

To cut a long story short, currently my phone wont accept any roms of any kind.

If I install CM7, MIUI, Sensation Rom, all of them seem to install a kernel as well, which causes the phone to panic upon boot. Which puzzles me, because if they are made for the S2, then why are they causing problems with my phone?

The only kernel that works for me so far is CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KE2-v4.0-CWM4. This allows me to access the internal SD via usb and put on roms. But I can't install them. As every time I do, I just either get a kernel panic or a black screen. I even used this guide, which should be foolproof and all I get is a black screen.

My phone has been in this useless state for 24 hours now and I've googled until I feel asleep at the keyboard.

Im hoping someone can seriously help me with this, as I don't pretend to know what I'm doing.

I was on ICS before this happened.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
If you want your phone back then use the method in cnet to get it working again

and about the roms issue, did you factory reset and full wipe your phone before installing a rom?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
I reset and wiped everytime. If I follow the cnet instructions to the letter, it just hangs on the Galaxy S2 logo when you turn on the phone and doesn't go any further. The only solution is to put on the kernel I mentioned above to get access to the SD card on my pc.

I now have managed to get CM7 RC working, but that's not the one I wanted. I wanted to use the Sensation rom, but that installs its own kernel which my phone, for some odd reason, doesn't like.

My phone details now are:

CM Mod 7.2 RC1

Kernel 2.6.35.14-g68ea119

atinm@wolverine #1
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
1.Boot into recovery

2.Full wipe

3.Wipe cache

4.Advanced->Wipe dalvik cache

5.Install sensation rom zip only

6.Reboot

7.Wait for 5 mins
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
I followed your instructions precisely. I then installed SensatioN_ROM_3.0_ICS_i9100.zip from this thread

It installed, installed a kernel, flashed modem and said done. I then rebooted and waited.

It comes up with the S2 logo with the triangle, fine but now It just shows a battery symbol with a circle in the middle. After a while it goes to black and then comes back. Like its rebooting over and over.

I unplugged the usb cable and instead of the batter I just get the logo with the triangle. That stays there for a while, goes to black and comes back. Over and over.

I can't even get to recovery. Only thing I can do now is go into download mode and start over, put on the kernel I know that works, install CM7 RC1 and then at least I have a phone. But why sensation rom doesn't work is a mystery to me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
Don't install anything else

Repeat the steps without any modem or anything

Any try to redownload the zip
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
How do I stop the install of the modem? The thread only shows one zip file and if I install that in recovery, it installs everything. I can't chose what parts to install. Do I have the wrong zip?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
Just install this zip by the method above

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Bzv8B0L32Z8lZ2hSanUtVHpSb0tFUlhkRVQ1RFhEUQ

Nothing else
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
While it downloads from google, I just want to clarify.

Wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. Then I go to install zip from sd. Find SensatioN_ROM_3.0_ICS_i9100.zip, then it installs. But the last time I did this, it scrolls up saying it was installing file system, then flashing kernel, then flashing modem.

Am I doing something wrong here?

And that google link is slow as hell, quoting me 7 hours to download it. Got it from hotfile instead, going to try that one.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
Yes it should work like that if you have a i9100
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
Done exactly as you said. I downloaded it from the hotfile link instead and installed it.

Came up with the same thing.

Cleaning Old System files

Installing System

Data Files

Symlinks

Flashing Kernel

Flashing Modem

Ready

Then I reboot and the same looping over and over. Can't access recovery. Only solution is using odin to flash the kernel I used before and be forces to use CM7 since nothing else works.

It's so confusing as Im using the same hardware as everyone else on the sensation rom thread, but it wont work for me. at all.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
you sure you have i9100?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
GT-I9100

I'm totally puzzled. MIUI doesnt work, Sensation doesnt work and stops me from using recovery. The only thing that works is kernel CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KE2-v4.0-CWM4.tar then install CM7 RC1 which upgrades the recovery to version 5 and the phone works. But only on CM7. If I try to install any other rom, it dies a death.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
And don't tell me that you flash cf-root after flashing every rom from recovery
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
No, I only flash that when the rom seems to corrupt it. Like when installing sensation. The only way I can access the SD card to put on another rom is to install that kernel.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
This is really weird

Maybe someone else can help you
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
ok lets try again........

1: forget everything [ideas you have.]

2: go into clockwork recovery

3: format every partition including system / boot [remove your sdcard before starting]

4: use odin and flash stock 2.3.6 LA2 [u can flash whatever you like] and let it boot.

5: now use cf-root and root your device [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 ]

6: i assume you know your way from here.

note: its very important to format system / boot partions

if yo dont have cwm or you want to try from scratch heres the latest cwm

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
Thanks for info. Just to clarify, the cf-root link contains loads of different ones. How do I properly know which one to use or doesn't it matter? And as for the stock 2.3.6 LA2, again, where do I find that? Reason I ask dumb questions is I don't want to assume and try the wrong one and come back here and complain when it was my fault, I just want to be 100% sure, so again sorry for the obvious questions.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
I flashed I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME then CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5.

It seems to be working fine now with the default rom. However, when I go into recovery to say perform a backup or mount the sd card, It won't have any of it.

When I try to mount the sd card it just says "error mounting sd card" and when I mount usb storage it says "unable to open lunfile (no such file or directory)". So I don't want to try another rom yet.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
lol when i said or what you want i meant from GB you flashed a ICS ROM. well do this and this time just do what i say......

use odin again and flash XILA2 . after boot dial *2767*3855# [a must]

after reboot you should be running a problem free ROM.

now from CF-root find LA2 and flash that now play with it a while and than you do whatever as now you know where and how to get back to working ROM.

plus after LA2 you will find everything on your phone works so any problem you get on other roms is not hardware :P

recovery issues should be fixed now. otherwise use odin and again flash that cwm file i posted earlier. you wont loose root

Download ROM from Here
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fucooo:
mate, make sure your phone is actually the international version GT-I9100

without the G in the end, like this one GT-I9100G.

if so, reset your phone to the stock rom, flash a CF-Root kernel with CWM

then follow the guide giving in the previous reply

1.Boot into recovery

2.Full wipe

3.Wipe cache

4.Advanced->Wipe dalvik cache

5.Install sensation rom zip only

6.Reboot

7.Wait for 5 mins

when you see the battery log in corner and noting else, wait till the screen goes black, then plug the battery out--then in-- wolla the device should run smooothly

I have the sensation rom 3- working like a charm. I admire the interface very much!! and the ICS keyboard, which supports my language.

Hope this helps!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
Tried that. The rom is force closing all over the place. Can't even get past the touch the android to begin part. When I tried the emergency dialer and entered the number, it just says its not a valid number. Just to clarify further, i am on O2, UK.

Update: After much painful searching I found a UK O2 rom and I am now in the process of installing it. Will then flash the kernel and see what happens. Will report back.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
After much work, it seems that I now have the phone back to a better state. Running MIUI so thats a great start.

I just have a few follow up questions to stop myself from doing this again.

Is it ok to ever install any ICS rom like Sensation? And is going back to this MIUI more work because of it?

Thanks so much for the information, really do appreciate it. I will play with the phone a lot more and hopefully wont have to report any issues.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
iv not tried any custom ICS yet as im more of a stock / miui / cm9 guy :)

but for future yes you can try custom ICS roms, what im getting from ur problem, its best to format system every time as you are having issues without it, even the code doesnt work means either you didnt tried the stock rom or you typed it wrong.

in short when you format system partition "all ROM data get wiped" and you get blank partition to start thus limiting any issues.

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 PM ----------

also when you flash stock ICS ROM or any custom ICS ROM that has modem, you get ICS modem installed, so when you try GB custom ROM that doesnt have modem [most dont] you might get problems so better to flash stock first via odin every time you flash custom ROM from one base to other. that is Gingerbread to ICS or ICS to GB
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X82X:
For anyone interested in how I fixed this issue.

I couldn't find the right stock rom, since multiupload is down and there are no mirrors, I had to do some deep googling to find one that worked.

In the end I found I9100XWKJ1_I9100O2IKI1_I9100XXKI4_HOME.tar which is O2 branded, no problem. This returns the phone to 2.3.6 stock.

I then flashed CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_KI4-v4.4-CWM4 via odin.

I am still having trouble mounting usb via recovery, but I booted up phone and used the usb option there to drag over MIUI. Went back into recovery and installed.

Now running the latest MIUI, rooted and working perfectly. I'm not confident enough yet to try other roms, as for now I'm happy. But I must again say thanks for all the help given, really did point me in the right direction.

Currently, I'm still unable to access usb from recovery, even though I can from MIUI once booted, but for now, its working great.

Here is my current settings.
