But a dev with username Clark44 has been over the in GS3 Threads and is absolutely slaying it with his Rom...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1748818

It happens to be the very first Galaxy SIII Rom that has the Aroma installer and about 15 or so boot animations, as well as Update Me, making the install of mods and UI stuff EASY PEASY! :victory:

He is also making and sharing some unique mods to all other dev's, like a universal modem installer that utilizes the Aroma Installer...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1816530

kbeezie, you seem to be on a twofold mission to be the most helpful person on our forum and to re-establish our faith in this community. Well, the little things like this help a lot.

I remember the days when everyone shared everything they learned about android. Then many lost their way, and open source seemed to become everyone's pet secret.

I understand getting huge chunks of hard work ripped off is crappy; when you've worked so hard on something and someone just yoinks it for themselves.

But when someone who isn't learned in code drops by and sees this, it makes them just a little more excited about typing stuff into terminal emulator. And I bet that's how a lot of great devs are born.

Cheers.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
Kbee u know how to set how much % of zram to use? Thank in advance :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
In Mimicry 1.3.2 RC1 (soon to be released as 1.3.2) the zRam setting has been fixed (ie: setting it in 1.3.1 does nothing), so that you can pick 10%, 18%, 26% under performance setting (ie: that % of total ram).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
I'm not using that Rom anyway..using ice sensewich atm.. :o
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
Ahh ok, well the kernel would have to have zRam (formerly compcache) support enabled and a script to set it up. I don't know if the DataSwap mod in my signature would work for a sense rom or not (it might, it's very simple).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
Wat I know is swappiness is using sd card,and zram is compress the file to disk and wat is dataswap? O.o
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
Simply put a swap file on your /data partition (ie: faster and more fluid than SD-Swap, and after a reboot is recreated on a different part of the chip so it's not working one part of the chip all the time like SD-Swap does).

Click the linky in signature it goes into a tad more details. It's generally recommended to use it with Sd-ext since that way you split the I/O between two devices.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
So wat I do is just flash that zip in attachment?isn't that for elitemod only??:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
So now wat should I do? Can I just extract the file of 80dataswap to init.d? And the sdext? And set permission to rwx rwx rwx? How much data swap is ok? 128 or 64 mb? If I enable data swap,will my data partition decrease ? :confused:

I'm still kinda confuse with dataswap and sd ext after reading up..still don't really understand..hope someone can simplify for me to understand :rolleyes: thank in advance :o
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
No you just flash it, it uses the aroma installer to let you pick and choose options and no its not just for elitemod just the original code came from elitemod.

And yes dataswap uses /data space (which is negligible if you have an enabled sdext partition on your sd card since data/app and /app-private get stored there instead.)

The big question is whether or not you do enough on your phone to actually need the benefits of swap. It usually helps multitasking or performance of memory greedy apps

Sent from my T-Mobile G2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
After I enable the data swap..its pretty fluid....I already have a sd ext 122mb after I activate I left only 24 mb free and all the apps vanish..left only like 64kb in that app..unable to open..any idea? :(

How do I check if my data swap is working? And setting for it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
128MB SD-EXT is extremely small (and I've no clue why anyone would make one that small, maybe an extremely old school method of apps2SD suggestion), the SD-EXT partition must be at LEAST as big as your /data , so 2GB Sd-ext is recommended as a good fit. So if you wish to use the sd-ext feature you need to re-partition your SD card with a bigger SD-EXT partition.

Dataswap would show under typing free in the terminal (or adb shell) on the swap line.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
Idk how I get 128mb of sd ext and how do I check the data swap with terminal?? The command free?? :confused:

Mind post me a link to make to make bigger partition of sd ext? Thank you in advance :rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demkantor:
in terminal type

free

if you have 4ext recovery you can check it there as well as change your sdext partition. you should also be able to partition your sdcard via clockwork
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
Using cwm to make sd ext? All my data will be erase right? Have to wait till next 2 week since I have exam..:(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demkantor:
you can backit up first and then restore it. if you change to 4ext recovery it can partition without a wipe, one of the many reasons I recomend it over clockwork
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
Using either ClockWorkMod or 4EXT Touch Recovery ( I prefer 4EXT ), make a Nandroid backup of your currently installed rom.

Then Toggle USB Storage and copy ALL the content off of your SD Card onto your computer.

Using either CWM or 4EXT Repartition the SD card (all data will be lost on the card):

At least a 2GB SD-EXT (1GB is the limit, do not make one smaller than 1GB) partition.

Skip the option for SD Swap (ie: don't bother with a swap partition on the SD Card if you're going to use DataSwap)

And in 4EXT if you're asked for a size for a second SD-EXT partition, skip it, only the first Sd-ext partition will be supported.

If asked for a filesystem type, choose ext4.

THEN Toggle USB Storage again and copy back all your SD card data (which will be going onto the FAT32 portion of the SD card).

You'll then have the SD card with data again, but this time with a 2GB SD-EXT partition on it.

If you have a Rom backup Prior to the SD-EXT enabling (which was advised to have to begin with), you can restore that so that you get your apps back, and then re-enable SD-EXT now that the partition has enough storage to hold all the apps.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
U mean I can reset my sd ext without formatting the sd card with 4xt recovery? And after I install app over to sd ext partition..the app can't be found anywhere,any idea?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demkantor:
yes but it is a good idea to make a back up first just in case

as for the apps hidden this may be due to the rom you are using, some don't have sdext enabled out of the box
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
Does this mean the data swap activated? The second pic with white background is at the /data/local..and i can see swap from 100000something bump up to 1620000 something at the swap line in terminal
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
To me it says 'failed' on the screen saying that the init script doesn't exist. Which probably means you once had a swap file from a previous install, but its not longer being setup. Also you shouldn't be running the init scripts from a phone terminal, it's supposed to be run automatically form /system/etc/init.d
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
You shouldn't be manually moving any apps to sd-ext, should be using an enabler script that does that for you automatically. Not all roms (well most) do not automatically see and use the /sd-ext mount without the assist of an init script or app (ie: the enabler in my signature will find an empty sd-ext , move the apps from internal memory to it, and then link /sd-ext/app* to /data/app* so the OS doesnt' seem to think anything has changed).

And while you can repartition the SD card in 4EXT without reformating completely (in theory), there's still a chance of data loss, and the size of your sd-ext is completely dependant on where the files are sitting near the end of the SD card. You want to be able to have no less than a 1.5GB sd-ext on the SD card in order to have plenty of room to hold the apps from the internal memory.

The best approach is still to backup your card to the computer, re-partition it completely and then copy back your FAT32 content from the computer.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Steven How:
I ran the script from /system/etc/init.d using smanager..I use the /data/local to check only
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
I'm not familiar with smanager, shouldn't have to use any separate apps, on most ICS(4.0) roms the executable shell scripts under /init.d are executed upon boot up.

Then choose the option root.

A goldcard (goldcard creation process is completely integrated in this procedure)

Temproot

To downgrade the mainver on the device

A HTC signed firmware package from a suitable OTA update.

If he said fail try it again (me did it the 3 time)

When jou phone complete s- off is choose the options back the stock. You must have a ruu for that.

[ READ CARFULL THE MANUAL !!! You are not the first with a corrupt boot loader.]

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SadieNibblesworth:
Hey guys, I need some help,

I have been using CleanGB v1.1.2 for a long time. Recently, I've been having a huge problem. Whenever I use ANY ROM, after about ten to twenty minutes, my phone just becomes *slow* as molasses. It's unnerving. It could be at the bootloader screen... it could be in the ROM itself... but if I'm using ANYthing but the stock ROM with everything unrooted, the phone just goes slow-as-*&#^-as-*&&& and I have to pull the battery out after ten to twenty minutes.

Any ideas?

My ROMs aren't corrupted. I've tested them all and I've tried installing and rooting from different computers with the same problem. I have tried CleanGB v.1.1.2 and People's 2.2.1 and Thunderhawk 5.1. All have the same problem after ten to twenty minutes.

EDIT - I should add that I have rooted (even as of today) other people's Epic 4Gs and none of them have had the same issue as mine, so I know there's something going on with my phone, in particular.

The only thing I can think may be doing this is that I use the CWM flash + the FC09 rom method to root my phone. Maybe I should be rooting it using Odin as I used to do back in the day.

When I go back *from* the root to the unroot, I always re-partition and time reset in Odin with a stock ROM. No problems after that.

Hoppingfully yours,

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Sadie, I root by odining cwm with auto reboot unchecked, pop battery out and in, 3 finger to cwm and flash ROM of choice. It definitely sounds like a strange issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SadieNibblesworth:
Hey KG,

Yeah, I think I need to go back to performing the rooting procedure from ODIN. I just can't seem to find the links to that online. God, I've turned into an ultra-n00b again.

What do *you* think is the best way to root using ODIN? I think the problem is that I've been rooting using the easier, flash-to-CWM in Odin and then flash the rooted ROM from CWM. I think I need to do it all from ODIN and repartition at that level.

Is it happening with your new phone as well? I recommended flash the rom of your choice do not install any apps for a day or two. If all is fine install one app a day till you find which app. My guess would be a app that you use that needs root because it doesn't happen on stock. Just my 2 cents.

It's all about personal preference. The Nexus has data speeds with a theoretical max of 21 Mbps where as the S2 is 42.

Phone is rooted and is not bricked. Phone only has stock recovery, so not sure if rom or kernals can be flashed that way.

Can Stock Recovery "apply update from sdcard" be used to flash correct kernal, unroot to stock using HOME_SPH-D710_CL852097_user.tar.md5, or re-root using SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED-OneClick.exe can be flashed?

If not, how else can this be fixed?
