not, the kernel from sansung have a lot of hacks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rubenyz:
Hi Rafael, can I have the RZRecovery (zip file) for this device, because I want to mod it and change background etc ?

You've included the recovery in your kernel, a permanent recovery, but is it possible to install it for once?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
I had talked about making a temporary RZrecovery, and still not changed my mind.

I was trying to put two types of partition in CWM, the problem is that no custom recovery support RFS. Only mount the RFS, can't support wipe or format.

Hey Rafael can you tell me how to mount boot.img in linux?

I tried "mount -t vfat -o loop boot.img /mnt/bootimg" and simg2img but they both failed

Also It might be important to note that I'm trying to mount the stock boot.img

what is about checking update source from s5360?

is there anything new. can we have hope again?

Sorry i didn´t see that there is a thread in general section.

The second step is flashing the Format all to ext4 zip? Or wipe the partitions in cwm ?

Sent from my GALAXY ACEi
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
in CWM have option to format /system, /data, cache or use the zip file to format all.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
I never tryed to mount android boot.img in linux. and i don't know how to do.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
anyone have this problem?

i go install flashplayer to test.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
yes.

flash latest kernel, format all partitions in ext4, flash your rom and after the kernel modules.

EDIT:

Only need format to ext4 if you have installed stock rom with ODIN and not have formated in ext4, after have formated to ext4 not need to format anymore.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] -Anderson-:
But the Rom comes with a different kernel..

Sent from my GALAXY ACEi
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] LaShto34:
Yes, me too.

The developer of the rom said that's the reason he still has in his rom an older version of your kernel (from 05.10.2012, I think).

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] makeyourself:
With regards to rfs/ext4, I'm slightly confused as to what I need to do to make my nandroid backup restorable, particularly as the situation appears to have changed a couple of times recently.

My partitions are currently in the following formats:

system - rfs

data - rfs

cache - ext4

sd-ext (a.k.a second SD card partition) - FAT32

boot - unknown but probably not changeable anyway from my basic understanding of things :)

I have the latest kernel revision (#20120241848) and my latest backup was made using this. Is there anything I actually need to do before restoring this backup?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] bestson:
U need to run the ext4 zip first if you never done before, do check under the backup file and md5 script if everything (ext.) has been set to ext4, if not then change it.. that's what I have done :highfive:
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] makeyourself:
Ok thanks so basically I need to change backup tar filenames and inside md5 file from rfs and vfat to ext4, run CWM script to format everything to ext4 and then I can restore?

I thought this may have changed again but obviously not :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Androidnow:
Can anyone just explain to me how to restore backup?? i have problems restoring it. fails to restore. what should i do? Didnt understand the ext 4 procedure. :confused:

EDIT: i have fat 32 and ext 3 as partitions
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] bestson:
Cheers then.. let us know if there's any issue.. :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
The correct file names.

boot.img

nandroid.md5 <-- this file need to change names inside to match with file names.

cache.ext4.tar

data.ext4.tar

system.ext4.tar

sd-ext.ext3.tar
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] bestson:
as usual.. always care.. salute.. :D

btw.. I was wondering about kernel development since one thing I know is we don't have bmcxxx source for oc is it? so the most thing to do now is themes and some common fiturs tweaking... hope there's source available soon.. cheers :thumbup:
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] makeyourself:
Thank you Beeston and Rafael. Yeah will do Beeston, I'll only use the backup if and when I need it but I wanted to check that it was valid and that I knew how to restore it in the event of an emergency so I didn't get caught out :good:

Edit: I didn't realise I have an extra file called ".android_secure.vfat.tar", (as it's a hidden file I only noticed when I looked inside the md5 file). I take it this one is for the first partition of my SD card? Is it OK to leave it in vfat?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] scuarapopas:
Hello evrybody and thanks to the Dev.

So at the end, I understood that the MAX REAL CPU clock is 832 MHz, even some governor shows 956, it is correct?

Anybody can confirm?

Rafael what do you mean in new revision of your kernel "add ext4 journaling disabler for "system", "data" and "cache" partitions." ?? We don't need to format /system, /cache and /data to ext4? This partition stay in rfs?

RZ RECOVERY
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] refazta90:
Wow, FINAL??!!! Thank you Rafael. You are my inspiration. :good: :o
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
if you flsh the rom in ODIN need reformat in ext4 only the cache and data for mount in recovery.

CWM recovery only support EXT4 for works correctly.

if you make an backup on RFS you need rename files from rfs to ext4 and change inside MD5 file for match the file names.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:

If you can't mount system try this: reflash kernel(boot.img) but don't reboot system should be mounted now, format system, then restore your backup.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Styrke:
Maybe your backup is corrupted.install your custom rom then check with winrar or winzip your backup files if they are corrupted.if not you need to make a new nandroid.md5 with new md5.

use this command example in cygwin terminal : md5sum system.ext4.tar >> nandroid.md5

hi

someone try to install the final version ?

when i install the final version the phone stand on the kernel logo and nothing happens

i try with stock rom , custom rom , i follow the installation step by step but every time the phone stand on the logo

an idea ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] saeed14i:
Which final version? Cwm or rz or stock recovery? I flashed final kernel stock recovery version without no problems
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
kernel with CWM and RZR is for:

/system EXT4

/data EXT4

/cache EXT4

/sdcard VFAT

/sd-ext EXT3

kernel with E3 is for:

/system RFS

/data RFS

/cache RFS

/sdcard VFAT

/sd-ext EXT3
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] bestson:
you need to format your system with cwm to get the rfs format system, then try to odin the stock rom.

use the final version with cwm not rzr.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] jmsonicbox:
which file is in the following step?

select the file ( Select_you_rom_file.zip )

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Andraxo:
same question im confused too please anyone help us?which file?im using stock rom
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Qeemi:
If you are using stock rom flash E3 version.

If you are going to flash a custom rom, the "select_rom_file.zip" is the "zip" of the rom that you are going to flash
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Andraxo:
even in the E3 version there is the step when it says select the file ( Select_you_rom_file.zip ) should i just skip it?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] freakzoide:
Same problem here...

Even tried going back to older version of Kernel, with different custom ROM and it doesn't go past the Kernel Logo.

Also followed the steps and used the correct files, with no luck.

Will try to go ODIN later...
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] jmsonicbox:

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Androidnow:
Yup....you just flash the e3 kernel over your stock rom. It should work without any problem.

EDIT: flashed kerned everything went great thanks everyone :) one last question do you guys know the best setup for 3D gaming?is lionheart the best or should i use performance?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Androidnow:
Performance would be my choice. Set min max at 832
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] GermainZ:
Just to clarify: selecting performance as your governor will automatically make your phone stay on the highest defined frequency.

So if you set your frequency range from 156Mhz to 836Mhz, and select the performance governor, your phone will stay at 836Mhz no matter what.

While it might make sense for gaming, don't forget to go back to another governor once you're done gaming if you care about your battery.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] freakzoide:
can't start on download mode.. only on recovery.

Any ideas? I can't restore my phone anymore! :|
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Androidnow:
Yaa you are right.....he asked for gaming so i just told him the setting for that. 832 min max was for just to make it run at 832....if he just selects some other governor. (secondary precaution) :p

Absolutely...once he is done with the gaming stuff he should change back to the previous settings.

And thanx for adding that too. :thumbup: helpful for newbies :thumbup:

Now when i was reading all replys of this post, rafael´s respond how to solved it. Oh no! i was to late haha but well am gona still using ext3 for now

Am using the new version with 936 overclock and i am using this overclick and it works very good. Thanks a lot rafael! u had made a very good work with this kernel

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
sorry of missing to reply you!

ext4 for sdcard is not good, damage you sdcard.

ext4 have journaling enabled by default, in ext3 not. :good:
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
These frequencies I will not even try.

Just tried a frequency that I knew I was safe!

Galaxy Y only able to 900Mhz using the same bcm21553. At least that's what I've seen in videos on youtube.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Qeemi:
So 936 Mhz is the max frequency the phone can reach?

And why we can reach 936 and galaxy y only 900 Mhz?

btw,what will you do now? Will try to fix the bug of contacts,or add more frequencies range (832,860,890,920)?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
Yes, I search inside source code to find mistake. if is a mistake. more probable incompatibility.

but in certain roms the phone can read sim contacts.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] Rafael.Baugis:
more registers for freq table cause bug.
