That works or use solid explorer or root browser. Navigate to...

/system/etc/init.d/98SHOCK

Open it with text editor...

Scroll down to...

rm /dev/log/main

Change this line to...

#rm /dev/log/main

Save file and reboot. Alogcat, logcat, and any other log app will work. It will also fix 'Waiting for device' when doing manual ADB logcat and choosing filtered dump that includes verbose, debug, info, warning and others.

Hope this info will help others looking for answers when logging is disabled by kernel or by ROM and no option to enable it through settings or app controls.

Its not a security thing. ROM and kernel devs prefer to disable it because it will be constantly running and will be a drain on the battery and performance. Now I'm not 100% sure that when it is running if it continuously saves the log or not. If it does then the size of the recorded log would grow rapidly based on how much the user uses their phone. It is also disabled to increase speed and performance of your phone without bogging it down.

Youre fine bro.. I know what you mean. :)

And yeah, Ubuntu for phones got released, not sure if its officially for the Verizon Gnex but.. it's still pretty cool
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Asmodicus:
I'm just so uninterested in that whole Ubuntu thing. Maybe I'm just not cool enough or something. Lately, if it doesn't have to do with the gnex, and toroplus in particular, it's just difficult for me to feign any interest.

I read today that DaXmax is releasing an update for Xylon, including one for toroplus, so I'm pretty stoked about that. I have to avoid looking in the Xylon forum thread, though because of all the... well I don't want to slander anyone, so I'll just say "users"... who keep asking and asking for the update to be released. It's like they just can't be patient and wait for the official release and keep asking each other for unofficial builds. It's maddening.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DoesntPostAThing:
I'm not that interested in the Ubuntu thing either. I rely a lot on Android apps, which will be missing on Ubuntu. If I barely bother enough to switch ROMs every once in a while, I most likely won't switch to a completely different OS. However, the UI does look modern, and the notifications are something Google can learn from and hopefully release in KLP.

Dual boot wont work due to JB boot partitions being much different than what ICS was.

The original devs for Boot Manager app abandoned the project to work on other stuff. They handed the app over to another more experienced coder. The new dev never kept his promise to continue work on it and keep it running.

The Nexus was actually a highly supported phone over others for this app and dual boot. Will the devs return to it? Probably not. Will dual boot ever come to the Nexus again? My mind says no. Is it possible to fix the app or make another one to support the Nexus and get through boot partition issues and any other obstacles? Absolutely. Downside is you face a humongous task to get it going again or make one from scratch and must constantly pay attention to developmental changes.

Not really sure where they were going with their explanation. My Toshiba Thrive tablet has an option for SD card slot and never found anything confusing when using it.

Speaking of apps... I love how more and more devs are adding floating options or solely float apps. Now that's a way to help multitasking a whole lots more.

Aircalc is full float app. One of the logcat app has float options. I've seen a couple browsers rely purely on floating (not the greatest yet). There's a floating terminal app that works extremely well.

Floating apps would help eliminate the need for recent button or cut down the reliability of it.

A bit off topic but thought I'd throw that in with the multitasking convo.

I tried it. My first opinion, not to be rude, was a "what the f is this sh*t?" when i saw the bootanimation.

Once i signed in and let everything settle i went straight to settings to explore the cherry pickings. Reminded me of Sourcery ROM but without all that weird wizard and magic feel.

Then i see orca this and orca that and i felt like i went to seaworld and came back with a seaworld sponsored nexus.

But... the vast options and customization made me quickly forget about the above mentioned.

Only disappointment was PA integrated into it but not cleaned up like PA. You could have a DPI of this or that but something else got messed up by you changing the DPI. Phablet seemed weird. Tablet UI messed up system stat info when notifications accumulated.

There were a few other issues and a confusion of using Xposed app for for DPI changes.

Speed and performance were pretty good despite the endless amount of tweaks and customization that would usually weigh heavily on performance of the phone.

The ROM is still being worked on but is stable enough to use.

Zram expands ram capacity by compressing part of the contents.

To be honest I prefer ksm which seems a little less laggy.

Ksm is a kernel feature that merges two pages of memory like one when the contents are exactly the same and duplicates the page when a write occurs in one of them.

Ksm and zram may be enabled from performance settings in cyanogenmod.

KSM and ZRAM are two different thing and can't really be compared. You can't really prefer using one over the other.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Riekr:
i was trying to keep things simple as the final effect is almost the same even if the path is completely different ;)

btw (since we go technically speaking) if you disable zram there is no ram paged to disk.. hopefully.

prefaction for everybody: i will use a lot the term "page" since memory in (many) computers is splitted in pages. "paging" refers to the ability to swap pages from a device (ram) and another, usually slower, one.

the main difference is that zram creates a compressed pool of memory pages used like swap so on heavy vm pressure kernel decides what active pages have to be moved (swapped, paged to zram or paged to disk if you use some swap file). the main effect of this procedure is that on heavy load the system becomes laggy specially if the paging destination has low write speed (solid state disks) or the compression is too high (zram but i don't know if this is tuneable). The good news is you can adjust swappiness in proc in order to best fit this procedure to your use of the device. the lower the swappiness the lower the chance for ram memory to be paged to something. the lower the swappiness the higher the laggyness will be when in need of more memory.

on the other side ksm (kernel same page merging or some other acronym) tries to compare memory pages in the spare time and when it finds duplicates pages they will be merged into 1 single page. This means that you don't have to wait for the vm pressure to be so heavy to need paging, when the screen of the phone is off or the device is idle ksm will free some more ram for you wich will be available with no overhead when needed.

there have been at least a year of discussions on the linux scene about ksm performance specially on handheld devices about power consumption, but on /sys/.. i can see a lot of good statistics about ksm.

cm team decided to disable ksm and enable zram with at 18% by default. i feel better with ksm from my tests but i'm happy to know about other experiences (i may take another look to zram).

finally: i think on stock there is neither zram nor ksm so basically one can live without this post :D

hope to have used an at least readable english ^^'
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chadouming:
Pretty great english, probably better than mine xD. But yeah, seeing it in that way it's kinda similar. But it's not totally similar. KSM remove duplicate page so save ram. It can be used when you are not missing ram. Zram is adding swap to device and put that swap in a compressed ram disk. So it's basically only used when you dont have enough ram. KSM is better in term of what it does. But zram "virtually" allow you to have more ram than what you should. Note the quote cause it's important. Yes it allow you to put 1.2GB ram in 1GB ram. But at the cost of cpu cycle to compress/decompress the file on every access. I didnt take in consideration ram operation as it's probably not noticeable. So more you are out of ram worse it get. That's only some kind of vicious circle.
