minicm9 3.0.4 is sooo fast. if i could buy nAa a mansion in hollywood, i most certainly would (but i can't anyway)

however there is this problem. accidentally i set swap to 32MB but i want it to be 256MB. any ideas on how to do this? cause i tried changing swap size but it just stays 32MB. any help is appreciated. thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 2010matej:
Me maybe!:fingers-crossed:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] khestrell:
whats this gapps business? why you came up whit this suddenly? it doesnt makes the phone slower than any other apps do. the point is to keep the number of installed apps as few as possible. so if you need gapps, flash it, if you dont need, dont flash it. simple as that. and this applies to every app.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] obynio:
Me too maybe in 1 - 2 weeks !!!

I will make it soon.today or tommorow. ;)

I reserved today and Friday.so,let me do it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CtrlAltDelIrl:
I imagine you'd first have to turn swap off before changing it's size.. If it's a parttion then it would need to be resized and if it's a file then it's just a matter of it making a new one..

Search the forum on turning off swap - you can use adb or the terminal.. Either way it's easy..

Speaker work, but there is a big problem in changing volume. [ full wipe / clear dev cach already]

Volume become smaller and smaller while pressing volume up [Vice versa]

Any manual fix for above problem?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
that didn't work either and now i'm stuck with 32MB of swap memory. thanks for your help though.

Where I can take source codes of a kernel of the Android of 4.0 Xperias x8?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
you can download it from nAa's github or from the link in nAa's ics kernel thread. but you won't get the ramdisk though. you have to extract it from nAa's ics kernel using Doom's unpack-kernelsin.pl perl script. good luck.

EDIT: anyone come up with a solution to the swap problem, that doesn't involve a full wipe, yet?

Might be a noob question, but, why is bluetooth automatically turned on when FM radio is used?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] obynio:
Because the radio use the bluetooth antenna as a radio antenna to receive the radio signal.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] nobodyAtall:
The correct reason is because wifi/bt/fm/gps are in the same TI chip. Specifically for fm to be powered the bt needs to be powered first.

News : JellyBean... :P In 1 month tops :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Eternalight:
Simple, mobiles that do not have an antenna built in to it "use" your headset/earphone/speaker wiring as an external antenna, without the cables it wont work. ;)

I suppose you could DiY one with the 3.5mm jack plug but meh, just use a headset or something or other. :rolleyes: :D

Hope that helps! :D:D:D

is voice search broken ?! after i press the mic icon the app just exits !
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Eternalight:
Hmm will subscribe to that, thanks Rohin.

The wifey sent me a text asking about using MMS with this ROM. Says she cannot receive MMS messages, just get 3g up. She is manually configuring the details & stated when configuring an APN network, MMS Protocol was not in the list of settings to enter WAP 2.0.

I will have to check her phone when she gets home due to me being on GDX at the moment of which i have no issues.

I'll poke around & see if i can find what she is talking about.

~j

---------- Post added at 04:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 PM ----------

Hmm...I think i found what she is on about.

Found Here

However looking at the configuration settings to simply send/receive MMS messages, she shouldn't need wap 2.0, then again, looking under the android manual setup, wap 2.0 is present.

Again i'll have to check her phone when she is home.

@ Matmutant

Sorry, Matmutant, I remember you have already reply to this answer:

I have seriuos stability problem too, with frequent system crash. I serched on the linked thread but I did not found the solution.

MiniCM9 3.0.4 nAa ICS v.4 OC 122-728, no swap, zRam default and other RAM compression ON.

TNX
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ponanovn:
Disable OC and wait about one day to see if it still crashes.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] khestrell:
Meanwhile i tested it, so i'll answer my own question.

First, without RAM Manager Pro, i started PowerAmp, Facebook, Gtalk, Adobe Reader and RMP itself. I was able to switch between them and the phone resumed the activities well and instant, instead of restarting them. Then i tried RMP, and no matter what option did i choose, i could not have more than 2 or 3 apps running in the same time, they rest of them kept restarting. So i guess it doesn't improve the performance at all.

Anyway, i'm amazed how fast is the 3.0.4.

It's JB, or you can try to modify statusbar on SystemUI.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] maxee23:
It's not too hard, you have to decompile systemui.apk and search in systemui.apk\res\layout\status_bar.xml, find the line that starts with

"<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock ....."

and add this line on top of it:

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.DateView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Date" android:gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/date" android:paddingLeft="4.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/clock" />
