1.71/1.97gb almost out of internal memory

and i want to move my files in my sd card or external. whats the proper way?

and i want to buy 64 gb for this phone. is it possible that 64gb will work on this phone?

sorry for bad english..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Yes a 64 gb will work but in the meantime you can take my file out of this zip and place it in system/etc with root explorer or an app like that. Make sure you give it 644 or r-w-r-r permissions like in the attachment and owner:0-root Group: 0-root as well. See attachments. Once you do this reboot. After reboot your external memory will now be your internal memory they will be swapped like mine see attachments .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] edwarddlr:
after i swap it.. how to swap it back?

so i will just put the 64gb and it will work? no setting or no need for something or modification?

thanks man..

one more thing. what will happen to my files in my external? after swapping it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Just keep original one to swap back. No you do not need to modify anything to use the sd card. And whatever was on external will be on internal after swap.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Alarmmy:
I'm a little bit confusing here. There are 2 internal storages in our phone. The first one is 1.97gb for app, the second is 12gb for app data+personal files. So, what is swapped exactly?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] edwarddlr:
how to swap it back?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
The 12 gb will be swapped

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 PM ----------

Either save a copy of original voldfstab on your sd card, rename original voldfstab.bak and leave it in case you want to switch it later, or just change the line in the file back to the original which is sdcard0 and external_sd1.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] edwarddlr:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppn7:
Hi. There are 4 kind of display mode:

-dynymic

-standard

-natural

-video mode

Which one you use everyday ? Did you try another for increase battery life ?

I'm usually on standard modd the second one. I wanted to try natural but the colours are too ugly.

Anyone tried perseus kernel and change settings colours for the natural mode and see the change?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simone:
Natural and Perseus' Master Sequence is almost the same.

Natural seems to have more saturared colors though.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppn7:
Which one is the best for you? Natural had better white than perseus? Don't know what is master sequence can you explain please?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simone:
Master Sequence over rides the Samsung's screen display profile. I believe it gives me a better white than Natural or Movie display.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppn7:
You set this on STweaks ? Is this increase the battery life too?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simone:
No effect on battery life really.

Yes on STweaks. Go to Screen tab and check Master Sequence. Apply and that's it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuxonhtc:
Way off. Perseus offers near perfect color calibrations, while Natural is more closer to real colors, but still off.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simone:
Really? Haven't been paying that much to detail. When I was on Adam Kernel with Natural display I was satisfied with it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppn7:
But can i choose natural display for the real colour and calibrate the screen for the white with perseus
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simone:
This. Like I said bro, it overrides it thus selecting any screen mode will have no effect.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuxonhtc:
Well, natural mode is still way off - the whites IIRC still had that green hue to it. Perseus comes with calibrations that even beats iPad etc, read the thread for more info :) You can see when you compare it with an iPad to see what I'm talking about.

And read the Perseus thread for more info re: calibration, there are some interesting posts by Slimer777 on the same :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simone:
Yeah. I saw the iPad and Macbook comparison photo. Can't believe the color calibration could do such :angel:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuxonhtc:
Yep. Most of the difference people notice is contrast ratio, color calibration etc. - the whole PPI/resolution aspect is way too overrated. Now when I switch the calibration off, the icons seem horrible and blurry. The screen is crisp and gorgeous with calibration on.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aukhan:
I use dynamic as its more of saturated and I love them with red pill my kernel

Have a question about androzip pro on wicked....

I recently formatted my sandisk class 10 sdxc 64Gb via cwm and it shows 59.xGb total available, I have recently downloaded some discography torrents directly to it....

Looking thru settings menu storage it shows with local tibkup files and movies/music etc that ive utilized around 17Gb but looking thru androzip properties on extSdCard it only indicates 9.xGb free on the whole device.....Am I misunderstanding something with readout via Azip Pro...

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Meltus:
I expected it to be slightly more complicated than this but apparently not. I know that you can underclock with the use of applications but I thought I'd mention that it can be also be done this way too.

Note: I'm pretty sure this is modifying the Exynos but I've not had enough time to play with it yet so I'm not 100% sure.

WARNING: This modification will directly modify how the CPU works. As such I will not be held responsible for any damage this may cause. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Tested on

Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500 (most likely will not work on the i9505)

Omega v4.0 ROM

Perseus Kernel

Requirements

I9500

Root Access

ADB command knowledge or a Root File Editor.

How to set the max number of active cores

1) Locate the file

/sys/power/cpucore_max_num_limit

2) Change it from 4 to whatever (you cannot set this to 0)

How to set the minimum number of active cores

1) Locate the file

/sys/power/cpucore_min_num_limit

2) Change it from 0 to whatever (you cannot set this to 4)

How to check it's working

1) Locate the file

/sys/devices/system/cpu/offline

This file should tell you how many cores are disabled (e.g, If you limit the active cores to 2, the 'offline' file will read "2-3".

2) You can double check with the

/sys/devices/system/cpu/online

file which will tell you have many cores are active.

How to underclock

[Pretty unnecessary as you can use various applications to do this bit for you]

1) Locate the file

/sys/power/cpufreq_max_limit

2) Change it to whatever you want (as long as it's a valid frequency)

You can also lock the device to 1.6GHz by editing the

/sys/power/cpufreq_min_limit

file

The Min and Max frequencies can also be changed by editing the files in

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ikcs-cpufreq

Things to Remember

1) These changes are not permanent. They will revert back to their defaults on boot.

2) Limiting the Exynos to 1 core causes the device to get rather unstable and can cause reboots.

3) I haven't tested this fully; any damage this may do I will not be held responsible for. Anything you do here you do so at your own risk.

Quadrant Scores

Device running on all 4 cores

Device running on 3 cores

Device running on 2 cores

Device running on 1 core

Device running on 1 core with CPU clocked at 600MHz (why not? :p)

Ok, but... Why?

Good question. For me, this mod is completely unnecessary. I'm planning on making an application for this in the near future if anyone's interested.

Interestingly, there's very little difference between 2 cores and 4 in general usage. This may extend your battery life somewhat and perhaps cool the device down for those experiencing overheating but apart from that it's fairly useless.

Enjoy!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] UpInTheAir:
You could easily echo the commands in init.d scripts. Set sleep first to allow device to boot smoothly
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Nasty_z:
An application would be useful, very useful. If you could release an app, I'd be really grateful.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Meltus:
I'll try and knock one up quickly later on.

For the battery conscious among you I've been running my phone on 1 core all day by accident, I must have forgot to change it back, and it seems to have been both stable and pretty efficent, battery wise. I'll do a proper test when I next fully charge it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] bala_gamer:
mate, the oc/uc can be easily done via either sytem tuner or nstool or any other cpu tools right?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Meltus:
Yup, I use CPU Master Free. Don't think anyone's made an oc capable kernel yet but you can just use applications to lower the cpu speed :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] bala_gamer:
did you note something odd? played with few of those values now my cpu always hangs arooung 1.6ghz regardless of cpu usage ignoring low cpu clk

edit: changed the minfreq again after a reboot, its back to normal
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] MrPhilo:
If i'm correct these changes only apply to the A15 cores not A7?

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Meltus:
Ok, here's an app to do it for you.

Exynos Core Control

Should allow you to set the minimum and maximum amount of cores in use.

Requirements

i9500

Root Access and Busybox

Completely untested - Use at your own risk!

This is directly modifying how the CPU works. I will not be held responsible for any damage done to your device.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] clavicle:
Now been using for almost four hours with max 2 and minimum 0 cores active. Used apps like camera etc, faced no issues so far.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] AndreiLux:
There is no point in trying to turn the cores off by force, they are powered off by CPU idle C2 state. Same reason why the phone doesn't have usual hot-plugging anymore. All you're doing is limiting performance and probably even worsening battery life by not having the load spread out over many cores at low frequency.

Also I think this thread belongs in some other forum.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Meltus:
Not sure about battery life savings, didn't test it fully.

Running on 2 cores doesn't seem to impact much on performance in games but it does drastically reduce the overheating problem so I guess this could be considered a 'quick fix' until (or even if) Samsung sorts it out. I even said in the original post that this mod is pretty unnecessary but I thought I may as well post that it's possible to do.

Don't see why it doesn't belong in this forum either as it's a mod that no one's done before (as far as I'm aware) making it "Original". I guess it'd be at home in both Original and non-Original Development but the criteria for each aren't exactly clear. :)

I'm sure a mod will move the thread if they deem it to be misplaced.

Hi there!

I have an Eircom broadband connection for my PC using a Netopia wireless router.

I bought a Sandisk SD Wi-Fi adaptor for my XDA and installed it's software from the little CD. (It's not the one with 256MB)

However my XDA doesn't find an access point.

I'm sorry for being such a newbie, and I did search for old posts to no avail.

Naturally I'd like to be able to use my broadband wireless to surf on my XDA II and activesync etc but I haven't a clue about 'mating' them!

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Many thanks

Hi

Thanks for that!

However, I installed it but then got bamboozled again. I just didn't know what to do with it!! It doesn't link automatically - there's talk of addresses, pings and such which is all Greek to me!

Does anyone know a step by step account of linking XDA by wi-fi to a home wi-fi router?

Thanks for reading this!

Fool's guide to connecting XDA II to home Wi-Fi??

I'm still at sea on this - please forgive me putting out another call for help here.

I have the SD Sandisk adapter (not the one with 256MB storage) and I have a home wireless router for my laptop.

I installed the software but need a detailed talk-through or step-by-step guide to get my XDA II connected.

Has anyone the time, talent and inclination? :D

Best regards to all!

The first thing you need to do is to launch the Ext4 Unpacker software and then you need to select the open button.

Step 2:

Select the system.img you want to extract.

Step 3:

Press the "Save as EXT4" button.

Step 4:

Select where you want to save the .ext4 file and enter a name with the extension .ext4, then press Save.

Step 5:

Wait while the ext4 image is being unpacked.

Step 6:

Launch the ext2explore software as a Administrator (Do that or it wont work!) and then select File then Open Image.

Step 7:

Select the file you saved earlier with Ext4 Unpacked software and then select "Open".

Step 8:

Now highlight the file you just have imported in EXT2Explore and then press the "Save" button.

Step 9:

Select where you want the unpacked system files to be placed.

After that is done just go to the folder and voila! The android system files should be in the folder.​

I'm also seeing the program hang trying to unpack my system.img.ext4 which is about 2.2gb in size. I'm trying to avoid having to use a virtual machine to mount the system image, mainly because I haven't figured out how to setup Oracle VM to allow for more than 1 gb of extra space on the system for copying files to and fro. This seemed to be the solution, but every time I select the file and click open it does nothing then if I click anywhere in the window, windows tells me it's not responding. Task manager shows it using heavy resources though, about 40% of RAM and 15-20% CPU so it seems like it's trying to do something.
