I use minitools partitions

First method (µSD on the phone)

:

Mount SD(s) with your phone on the PC

Open minitools parttions

Select your external SD

Right click and choose 'Delete'

Select your external SD

Right click, and choose 'Create'

In the opened windows, choose primary partition, linux swap, put the size to 513 MB(you've 512 after), don't name the partition, and 'none' for assigning the drive letter

Click on 'OK'

Right click again, and choose 'Create'

In the opened windows, choose primary partition, ext4 partition, put the size to 2 GB(like you want), don't name the partition (you can name it, I didn't do it), and 'none' for assigning the drive letter

Click on 'OK'

Right click still once, and choose 'Create'

In the opened windows, choose primary partition, FAT32 partition, put the remainder of the size , named the partition like you want, and put a letter on it, for that your PC can see it.

Click on 'OK'

Select 'Apply' in the menu of minitools parttions

Second method (µSD in adapter plugged to your PC)

Instead of trying swap to sdcard, why don't you try the new zram?

Thank you very much :D now it works fine :)

[MENTION=2875350]franzyroy[/MENTION]

I thought you can't partion your sd when its in your phone? I always got a bootloop when I tried this method...

[MENTION=4196889]DerTeufel1980[/MENTION]

What's the difference between zram and swap?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
No bootloop for me!

zram and swap

:

So zram is called compcache before.

In fact it works as a swap partition by compressing a portion of your RAM, and virtually increasing its capacity.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TommeleTBone:
testing zram, which values should i apply?

I did enable it in the performance settings to 26%

150MB through Devil Kernel Manager

anything else i need to consider?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
Check swappiness value in devil kernel manager.

Check if it is working, by using terminal and enter the command:

free

In my case, there is no swap partition created

Nice description! One point:

In my case, maybe one year ago, I've had to create the ext4 partition after creating the FAT to make it work with Link2SD. It really wanted to use the second partition. I'm not sure if an update solved that. [MENTION=2875350]franzyroy[/MENTION] Do you use Link2SD?

---------- Post added at 09:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 PM ----------

What could be the advantage?

I thought zram needs more cpu resources and is - for that - second choice in case you don't have swap partition...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
These are the speeds measured with an older compression

http://code.google.com/p/compcache/wiki/zramperf

Although it is running on a PC, it should show, that zRAM is much faster than sdcard throughput

The better is to test what is best for you. I don't know.

Thanks for appreciations.

No, I don't use Link2SD but I created if I ever needed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TommeleTBone:
a little more grafically...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grinder777:
Thanx for the app tip...

Zram was not to activate by devil kernel manager but with system/performance settings!

Feels good... Let's do it it's job a few days :)

SGS - Devil 4.3 - Helly Bean - Cobalt Sam-X - Thnx2all
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
I've like you, 0 for the swap, however, I created it. Why is it like that? It is true that when I look at the contents of the SD, I see only a FAT32 partition. It seems my phone has formatted my SD, so it doesn't accept the swap partition. Why that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grinder777:
You can check if your swap partition is still there with the command

fdisk -l dev/block/mmcblk1

Right now I'm at zram, so my swap is not mounted - but to see...

If it is there, you just have a mount problem...

;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
Thanks! ;)

Yes, it's true, you're right. I can not thank you, I have exceeded my quota, so thank you like that![
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
A bit strange what I've.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grinder777:
Yep... I think you lost your swap and your ext4...

You need to partition again. I would not use the recovery for that, not sure if it will format your FAT too... Use a PC, with gparted live cd you will not loose your FAT contents.

SGS - Devil 4.3 - Helly Bean - Cobalt Sam-X - Thnx2all
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
Yeah, except it several times as I did, and that each time the partitions are deleted. So it may repeat the same. There must be a reason. I must find out why.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grinder777:
Something you're doing wrong... ;)

I never lost my partitions - and I don't have an idea what to do to loose them :angel:

Don't forget:

Have fun!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
I have no idea about it either. I will see tomorrow ... not too bad, my phone works fine.

Thanks for your help!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TommeleTBone:
ZRAM-testing:switched from 26% back to 18%, as i had some laggs and hangings, right now seems to be more reactive...let's see..:cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grinder777:
Try to bring your swap to 3rd..

I mean,

Partition1 - FAT

2 - ext

3 - swap

Perhaps, some mechanism in linux is checking the first partition in case of trouble - and destroys it by trying to repair...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ST3MC:
Can u please tell me what is the swappines value in the devil kernel manager? (I accidentally changed mine)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
Results is same...

Format like said above

Once made, I saw all partitions on my PC with minitools

Disabling USB storage

Phone said my external SD is empty and ask to format it

I don't format

Set again swap in Devil kernel manager

Reboot

Look how is the swap with the Terminal: 0 (so not swap)

Enabling USB storage to see how are the partitions (don't see the external SD like the last time)

However, my phone works better like that.

Weird!? :confused:

I use swap last 1.5 year and its working fine. My procesor is same as you discribed in above.

How to enable zram ? Only tick in setting/performance/zram or i need to do someting extra because cyancore kernel thread TS made a inti.d script. And some one said for zram we also need to create swap partition on sd card.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Facebooook:
No problem with swap.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
I didn't say that I had an issue with swap... just said that my linux partitions (swap & ext4) were deleted when I remount my external SD on my phone. Not same, maybe an issue with my SD... or other.

Edit

:

I gonna try with another.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grinder777:

how can I do?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
Delete!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
If you want to flash it by ODIN. I did it in following this tuto (thanks to him).

Download the CreateTarForKernel.zip attached

Extract it to CreateTarForKernel

Download a kernel zip and extract it in the CreateTarForKernel folder, only 'boot.img' file

Rename the boot.img (or whatever is the name .img) to zImage (remove the .img)

Launch tar.bat

And flash KERNEL.tar with odin

Lonk below

:

First

: zip to create kernel.tar

Second

: Devil kernel.tar
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
You can flash boot.img only with Heimdall (frontend or command line ). I use the second one. Much simpler than Odin.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
The odin version is missing the modules. They didn't fit into the kernel itself anymore.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
ADB won't work for galaxy S, as we can't use fastboot. Heimdall is the easiest command line option. I frequently have to use "heimdall flash --kernel boot.img" if I mess up :)

You can add them in /system/lib with an explorer (with activated root: Solid explorer or ES Files explorer). Then restart your phone to make it functional.

Normally, you've not to touch the permissions. Because these files are already in /system/lib. You'll just have to restart your phone.

hi

my january 2013 helly bean rom died : sgs crashed and did not boot again, even with dalvik cache clearing and usual tricks...

i made the rom reset to factory . sgs rebooted fine , BUT phone.apk was constantly waking the device up, draining battery faster than light...why?? *** this, i will never know. well let's move on to 4.3

so i installed the latest hellybean, factory reset, internal storage wiped, no tweaking, no social apps, no games, i frosted evrey app i dont need. i have no halo, no sidebar, no exposed, or any of those activated, only TRDS and the notification bar (notification on the left,tiles on the right)

sgs goes fine at boot but begins to lag severely after some uptime : after each night it gets very, very laggy (at least these last 2 days) making it almost unusable without a reboot, battery life is great.

also sometimes when i go to task manager (long push HOME), either the task manager shows no task (?) or it doesn't show at all : black screen, like the SGS is struggling although all bells & whistles are not activated...

just my impressions for that lastest rom after some months using hellybean 4.2.. i wait next version anyway, thx derteufel
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aycim:
I experienced this in a comparable way. Maybe it is the same bug with the systemUI, like it is in Mackay-Rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] matcho13579:
I think so, most probably it's related to Active Display feature...interesting thing is that the "bug" is present even when AD feature is deactivated
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
Which bug?

Gesendet von meinem GT-N7105 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] matcho13579:
That SystemUI.apk's memory consumption is growing and growing and after few hours the phone becomes laggy and unusable, after reboot everything is okay....and it's happening again and again
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I think this can't be stated as a fact now.

I am using AD for quite some time and although SystemUI RAM usage is higher than without AD, it never causes the phone to be too laggy that I need to reboot it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] matcho13579:
That's because I wrote "most probably" instead of "sure". But my phone got laggy after 14 hours without rebooting and now it's 25 hours and it's fine... I don't know why your phone is okay with AD and mine isn't, kinda weird
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aycim:
I also don`t think that it is only the AD, but it is a fact for me, that the pfone gets laggy after a few hours of using. And the android-system-app was growing also to ca. 85-90MB of Memory-Usage.

Another user (whom i forgot) discribed, that he had an comparable problem. He said had it only with CM-based Roms.

I startet testing the behaviour of SysUI in the latest CyanAOSP just now. Maybe tomorrow i can draw a comparison.

But i realy like Hellybean and its features, so i would be happy if this problem could be solved, that the phone gets laggy after a day of usage.

P.S. [MENTION=4196889]DerTeufel1980[/MENTION]: Respect to your Work! Go on :o

I did the same, I made a ROM without AD. It consumes less RAM for sure. Whether it is the solution for potential slowdowns, I don't know.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
What did you do in particular Devil kernel manager? Because I have not encountered this problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sas_sas:
Zram, swappiness, deepidle, devilidle etc...

There is zram option performance section in rom itself and Devil kernel manager has too.

Which one really effects to zram settings?

.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franzyroy:
I've not touch to zram, neither deepidle and devilidle... Only touch to swap and swappiness.

For the effects to zram settings, I know what it is but not the real effects.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] panblock:
What I can confirm is that since the introduction of Active Display and even though I never used AD, RAM consumption became worse. Like another user said, it's like a RAm bug that eats up all free memory and you need to reboot to fix it. For example before the introduction of AD I had appx 70MB of free memory and now I can hardly reach 50MB. Same setup

The power off issue is related to fastboot. just uncheck fastboot in settings - performance and the behavior will be normal.

Thank you :) i didnt noticed it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aycim:
I thought this is maybe helpfull to know for finding the reason for the bug with SystemUI:

I tried the following with first with Hellybean, then with Slimbean, both with the same Result:

Switching the RealDarkSlim ON and OFF had same effect like waiting half the day for SystemUI to grow.

After the first boot it had about 34Mb. With the "method" of switching the RDS it raised to about 100Mb while 10min.

the Maximum i reached with this was about 120MB for SystemUI. Android-System stayed at about 60MB. Then SystemUI got a FC and this also reseted the RAM-usage. I started doing this again, with the same Result.

So i think it is not directly related to ActiveDisplay.

Switching between the different performance-settings had no influence ( i testet not all)

Hi franzroy, How to use three partition together ?

Because if i create 1st Fat, 2nd ext4 and 3rd swap than swap doesnt work on phone.

If 1st Fat 2nd swap and 3rd ext4 than link2sd doesnt create mount script.

"For Link2sd app ext4 partition should on 2nd no."

And if i create 1st swap 2nd ext4 3rd fat than phone doesnt detect sd card and said format it.
