Native NTFS support

I tried formatting my sd card to ntfs, and discovered android can't read ntfs (sees card as blank and offers to format it).

Is it possible to have native ntfs support (without installing mounting apps like paragon)?

I wanted to have ntfs, to be able to copy large files on card (some HD movies, etc)

If that's possible, can next releases of viperS have built in ntfs support?

Hello,

First off, I'd like to say that this is a great ROM (I used 1.01 and then switched to AOSP/CM) Being back to Sense feels great. In all my flashing (Cm/PA/DKOS?ARHD) I never had a problem restoring apps after backing them up. When I flashed this after a full wipe (through ext4 as well as Aroma) I've been having problems restoring apps. It happens if i choose App Only AND also if I choose App+Data. I tried googling this, it only shows up tutorials. I'm sure I know how to back-up and restore using Titanium Backup.

Would a Logcat be needed for this?

I'd appreciate all help with 'thanks' :)

Re: [ROM][Sense 4.1][20.01] Team Venom presents: ViperS 1.6.3 - welcome to the future

My reply wasn't to you :p I think you should use a kernel that supports usb otg for starters... If you need real help then you will need to supply real logs, it shows you how to debug in the thread you linked above :)

Sent from my HTC Sensation with Beats Audio
[HTC Sensation] msavic123:
Logs are not needed, as this isn't a bug at all, it's trying to provide new functions to the phone :)

kernels supporting otg have nothing to do with abiliity to read/write file systems not standard to linux.

and bricked kernel, even though claims to have "basic ntfs support", can't mount sd card formatted with it.

seems you don't really understand this topic, do you :)

yes paragon helps this, but it's not native fs support, and you have to mount volume manually.

I had kind of same problem. It was due to a bad battery (my old anker). When the battery was down I had to charge at least to 50 % for the phone to boot. Now I have a new battery and everything works better. No reboots sinse then and no more problems booting when battery is low. 5 - 10 % is enough to start.

Hello. Quick question. Every time i listen music, i have to set repeat all melodies, because when i close the app, the option is resetting ...very frustrating. Others with same problem? Do you know if elegancia have this problem(it's a long time from last flash). Thank you.

Ps: battery:anker( after multiple 0-100%, 2171mAh), 1h talk, 5h screen on(just reading with Aldiko), bricked 1.4 (before install, used pyd x kernel reset, and kernel reset mode from a...banned dev), kernel tuner app.

[HTC Sensation] psychoshrink:
BUMP! Any help, please?

In the meanwhile I flashed latest build of AOKP and the very same apps that weren't restoring are getting restored perfectly. What am i NOT doing correctly? I was on Viper 1.6.3 and and many apps e.g swiftkey/asphalt/etc were just not restoring. Now I've resored all successfully. I really want to use Viper and Sense. PLEASE help me out guys!
[HTC Sensation] sam854:
Thank you very much for getting back to me!

i did suspect it being my battery but thought it couldn't be because if i was to restore to an older backup then it would start up (and so thought it cant be the battery if it can start up now!)

are you certain it was your battery causing the problem?

but i think you might be right as i think the problem was more likely to happen if i had wiped the battery stats...

thanks for your reply!

additional swap space in cache partition

Sirs, I wanted to discuss the idea of using the /cache partition as (additional) swap space in my post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37222914&postcount=23070. After receiving no comment, that interferes with this idea, I developed a script for creating a swapfile in the /cache partition - see attached init.d script.

--- THIS IS BETA - so it refers only to the experts in this forum ---

The script has to be stored in /etc/init.d - please refer to the instructions at the beginning of the script. I have developed and tested the script on ViperS 1.6.3 and it works perfect for me. With the initial settings it will create a 75MB swap file in /cache/swap/swap.img. If it is used together with zram, the space is added to the zram swap space and will be used in addition to it, after zram is fully used. Of course it can also be used without zram. It will recognize, if the size of the file is adjusted and recreate it after the next boot.

I would be very pleased to have comments to make it better - please PM me (I don't want to spam this thread).

If you like it, please press THANKS - have fun! :cool:

PS: As always: I am not responsible for any damages or whatever - even if your guinea pig dies - use the script at your own risk!
[HTC Sensation] jojo-g:
I'm quiet sure that it was a hardware failure (battery). I'm sure as problems return when I change to my old anker battery and problems disappear when I change to my new battery. Wiping battery stats is no solution. "Jumping" capacities after reboot in my opinion is mainly affected by bad battery.

Re: [ROM][Sense 4.1][20.01] Team Venom presents: ViperS 1.6.3 - welcome to the future

You can also paste it on yank 555 swap form he will also look into it and make it even great:D:thumbup:
[HTC Sensation] delta-roh:
Thank you - I had a look at this thread - it is for a swap partition on sd-card. My script uses a cache file on the internal cache partition. This is specific to the Sensation - I don't know, if it will also run on other devices. By the way - an sd-card has a limited number of read/write cycles - so a cache partition may harm the sd-card or shorten the livetime.

Maybe I gonna post my script to this thread later - meanwhile how about giving my script a try ... :D
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
Re: [ROM][Sense 4.1][20.01] Team Venom presents: ViperS 1.6.3 - welcome to the future

Giving it a try now and can u tell me what are its adv and dis adv :D and can I use 110 mb swap instied of 75

UPDATE-: working gr8 with 112 mb swap will use it please tell its dis adv also

Keep up the good work :thumbup:
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
I can tell some of my oppinions:

- it has the same adv and disadv of softswap

- it saves disk space

- it is cache partition so it has more chance to be wiped than /data (data will never be wiped unless you do a fullwipe). if it is wiped, swapfile will be automatically created again and if this process repeats frequently, emmc will be more or less degraded

- cache partion is required for some roms in order to install ota patches, install themes or something else. this will take a certain space so sometimes, the roms can't install these things

- this script is based on yank's script so it will generate some logs -> trash :)

- cache partition has a limited capicity so it can't handle a large swap file

- I dont like zram. it is also discussed in hardswap thread why it is not recommended

- this can be used together with softswap

correct me if Im wrong
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
Re: [ROM][Sense 4.1][20.01] Team Venom presents: ViperS 1.6.3 - welcome to the future

Thx for your openion here is mine Soft swap also reduces the internal memory as I install many apps that's why I used hard swap insted of soft one with this I get all what I recommend both internal and external space is free and it is much faster than hard just like soft :thumbup:

[HTC Sensation] delta-roh:
My script does not base on Yank's script - it was developed from scratch. But yes - I write a log-file, but that is overwritten by each run of the script. The script has nothing to do with zram, it can be used with or without it.

Unfortunately this is a known issue with the sensation. You will always get different values after a restart, but it will soon settle down to the correct value. Wiping battery stats does not really do anything. Don't think there has been a full fix for it yet.

Well really i think that is and android problem because i also have it on my dad one x and also on the G Nexus. Isn't a problem, is a MINOR problem, i think that the rom has a lot of speed, in fact i installed 100 apps and 5 lauchers and still i don't get any lag.....

Heres darker version, tell me how it looks.

I didint use VTS at all, its rather simple..

You need to change 2 9pngs inside res\drawable-hdpi - input_btn_common_key_rest.9.png and input_btn_function_key_rest.9.png.

I think you can also decopmile images using VTS also than change them, but i i did it via android-sdk draw9patch.bat and xUltimate-d9pc for compiling them..

And you cant use complex images, you can add solid colors with a bit variations, or you will have pixelization..

Basically google a bit how to properly change 9.png images, i dont have time to make guides :)

I get much less overnight drain with Bricked than with Faux but Faux is a lot smoother to use so I figure it's worth the trade off.

Bricked 1.36 typically drains 5% to 7% overnight (typically 8 hours) while Faux drains around 15%.
