I have ViperS 5.0 I downloaded version 3. It says virtual memory and out of memory tweaks are not necessary. Did i install them? should i uninstall if i didk
[HTC Sensation] lovendsuicide:
Just choose ViperS in aroma, the size of swap you want and let the script do the rest. If you don't want the tweaks you can remove them or install the sense version.

I install this mod in the rom 2.08.401.1 and then i cant download nothing of google play. Why?
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Nothing related to mod that could do this, unless possibly if your GB.

What ROM is 2.08.401.1?

Sent from my HTCSensation
[HTC Sensation] Winins:
The rom is Sense-o-Maniac 1.5.3 sense 3.5 android 2.3.5
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Ok that is because you are on Ginger Bread and Playstore uses the cache partition. What you need to do is run the installer again and use a CM version of MultiSwap :)

Personally I feel my phone got slower after using this mod. Im using sense5

Same as above

And i cant play asphalt 8 tokyo map while i could with roehsoft ram expander and 306 mb swap. Game fc's due to lack of ram :( can 18 mb really make a difference? Might try v4 later...
[HTC Sensation] iphuang:
Good

I like this mod. It works fine on my Sensation with Revelation ROM.

Its virtual memory setting is good, better than ROM default.
[HTC Sensation] Alcatraze:
Revelation is far more fast now!!! Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] cutejerk420:
I feel lag with this mod. I use viperS with v4 with swappiness of 100 then changed to 70 and the lag is irritating. What should I do. I love multitasking a lot
[HTC Sensation] JJeamy:
really love this mod...owesome..i've already using it with ViperS Sense 5 rom..

Are the swap images created in system and misc?

is this tool for extend RAM? or internal storage., please tell me.. thanks
[HTC Sensation] jorra:
The ROM seems to support init.d. I tried with an app from playstore (attached screenshot), at first run it said that it didn't support init.d but after that it reports that it does... Don't know what to make out of that.

I also tried to manually change a script to see if it had any effect and it did. Is there something like partial init.d support?

[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
It's swap files for RAM it doesn't physically extend it.

I'm not sure what is wrong, never heard of partial support, I haven't had the time to check out that ROM yet but when I do I'll take a look.

Have you tried calling the script in terminal?

su
/system/etc/init.d/93multiswap

Another way could be to use SManager from playstore to execute scripts on boot.

I'm using this ROM and it works fine, not sure why not on your end. You could make a nandroid then reflash the ROM without wipe and then install MultiSwap. Once done check in terminal if swap files are active by entering:

cat /proc/swaps

ViperS Sense 5 Rom Cleaner Script...

Hey, long time no speak.

I'm going to make the switch to ViperS 5.1.0 when it is released, well hopefully enough of the bugs will be fixed for me to want to so I will no doubt make a new ROM Cleaner script.

Just thought I'd let you and Multiswap users know :)

[HTC Sensation] stormy_gale:
Thanks for the info Jonny, just retried once more, still no joy.

Only 2 other thoughts, I have busybox 1.22.1 installed would you check your version. I also use mount2sd to free space perhaps this is causing issues.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
the problem is with busybox

install the 1.21.1
[HTC Sensation] -Jonny-:
AFAIK I don't have busybox. I used Android Tuner Free (for free -m). Also I use link2sd to free up RAM.

ViperSC2 v5.1.0 comes installed with BusyBox v1.22.0-Stericson multi-call binary and works fine with MultiSwap :thumbup:

Sent from my HTCSensation

Edit: [MENTION=2579420]stormy_gale[/MENTION] Mounts2SD shouldn't interfere unless your using a swap option in the app or you have moved the cache partition contents to sd-ext. When I use Mounts2SD, I only move apps to sd-ext as moving app data or dalvik can slow things down.
[HTC Sensation] stormy_gale:
Thanks for your info, you confirmed my thought that it was busybox, I found an earlier entry suggesting the new busybox broke 'swapon'.

Dirty flashed the ROM & you mod is now working. ?

Would you check the print below & advise if it's correct for the 2nd group of swap files to have a priority of '0'

I will have the ROM Cleaner Script for ViperS Sense 5 ROM's made soon.

The Sense 5 ROM is quite a different beast to Sense 4. More so than when I configured new scripts when going from Sense 3 to Sense 4.

So the new Sense 5 script is going to take longer than I first anticipated.
[HTC Sensation] LocotesKilla:
Update!

I am currently testing the new script, and unfortunately something broke HTC Sense and BlinkFeed, so when I figure it out it will be going live.

[HTC Sensation] LocotesKilla:
Update! ViperS Sense 5 Script v2.0

I have updated the Sense 5 script again, namely the apk's in the experimental section of the script as I have found a couple of entries to be important to some Sense 5 HTC Applications. I have also added a couple more apk's that where not in older Sense versions.

I have also added the following warning to the scripts.

Due to using this script after a first boot instead of before the first boot as described on the ROM Cleaner thread, your home screens may reset to default, other than that, don't worry about it.

Also slightly updated Sense 4+ scripts to reflect changes to Sense 5 script.

But that's it now, the scripts are all done.

Enjoy!
[HTC Sensation] groovepeppy:
which one u choose and did u change the swapiness?

i once use this on aosp 4.2.2 and the phone was fast like it uses 2ghz proc maybe, hell!

with this mod installed phone opens app like Hangout or game such as RR3 is just like flippin fingers.

but now i cant find any setting which can bring viper 5.1.0 near my experience,

i hope someone succeed can enlightened me

For now users that use BusyBox v1.22.1-Stericson which is included in the ViperS v5.2.0 update need to install the previous version of BusyBox for this MOD to work until I can find the time to fix - test - update it. Use BusyBox v1.22.0-Stericson for now.

thanks dude

work fine now on ViperS 5.2.0
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
did you check if it is installed the 1.22.1 version?
[HTC Sensation] sembrex:
1.22.1 included in ViperS 5.2.0, and i changed to 1.22.0 to make this mod work
[HTC Sensation] smart_thingup:
so, need to downgrade to 1.22.0 for viper 5.2.0 to make this MOD work ?
[HTC Sensation] smart_thingup:
now it works on my Sensation Viper 5.2.0 :)

Viper 5.1.0 is come with busybox 1.22.0, and

Viper 5.2.0 is come with busybox 1.22.1

MultiSwap 1.0.2 didn't work with 1.22.1 , need to change to 1.22.0 busybox

just copy busybox file in /system/xbin from viper 5.1.0 to other place (SD card)

update viper 5.2.0

and replace the busybox with 1.22.0 version from viper 5.1.0

if you already updated to 5.2.0, see attachment, there's a busybox 1.22.0 from viper 5.1.0

(it's not a zip file, after download, simply erase the .zip extension, and place it to /system/xbin/)
[HTC Sensation] sembrex:
yeah, i've tested with busybox 1.22.1 but didn't work. then i flashed v1.22.0 of busybox and worked
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
OP updated with new MultiSwap v1.0.3 :)

- Now compatible with newer versions of BusyBox

Note: If updating BusyBox, MultiSwap may need to be re-installed.
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Did you use latest version? - MultiSwap v1.0.3

If you choose the ViperS version and want to change the Minfree values you either need to edit the init.d script or use Android tuner, otherwise choose the Sense version which doesn't have the Minfree values and you will be able to change them with Venom Tweaks. For better Multitasking you need to set them to a lower value.
[HTC Sensation] saldymhmd:
Already upgrading busybox on latest sultanxda's CM11 but I think the multiswap is not installed correctly, any idea?
[HTC Sensation] 12reza12:
where can i change multitask in venom tweaks ??!!!! :confused:

thanx for answer :)
[HTC Sensation] WSZR:
Venom Tweaks -> Misc -> Minfree setting
[HTC Sensation] 12reza12:
so i put besybox v.1.22.1 in the rom from rom zip v.5.2.1 (becase i change it to busybox 1.22.0 for older multiswap )

flash the multiswap new version and then change the minefree to multitasking

and i just have that problem :(

if i change minefree to multitaskin xtreme my problem is be biger !! :(

now i flash rom witout wipe again

can you tell me what shoud i do step by step ?

sorry for my bad english :/
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
If upgrading busybox you then need to reflash MultiSwap. Is busybox installed in xbin?

Afterwards check in a terminal app if all the swaps are active, enter:

cat /proc/swaps

Make sure you select the Sense version of MultiSwap not the ViperS version if you want to edit minfree values in Tweaks.

Choosing Multitasking extreme should hold more things in memory not less, you must have to many background apps/services. I suggest you try slim your ROM down by at least freezing everything you don't use and try limiting your running apps, use greenify and use RAM friendly widgets with minimal homescreens. :good:
[HTC Sensation] saldymhmd:
Yes, I did it. Busybox is installed on xbin, when type that command on TE, it says no such file or directory. Maybe I need to reflash the rom with full wipe?
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Did you enter is correctly? Could you post a screenshot and also of these codes here.

ls /proc/swaps
ls /
[HTC Sensation] saldymhmd:
There's some screenshots
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Yeah sometimes you needs to enter / before a root folder for example 'cat /proc/swaps' or 'cat /*/swaps'.

Can you post screenshots of those codes in my above post and does 'cat /*/swaps' give you the same result?
[HTC Sensation] saldymhmd:
Yeah, I tried your code but still the same. Will try to reinstall with full wipe
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i installed version 1.22.1

then i flashed multiswap 1.0.3

i chose vipers and revelation option

i select version 4

but the swap stll doesn't work on that version:(
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Once you have updated busybox, then a reboot is needed for busybox to setup its symlinks.

Once that is done, then you can go back into recovery and flash MultiSwap. Sorry I forgot to mention about this :o
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i think i did a reboot

i wil ltry again

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:00 PM ----------

i installed 1.22.1 again

i did a reboot but nothing changed

so i will install multiswap 1.0.3 again

which one should i choose?

sense based or vipers and revelation option?

my rom is vipers 5.2.0
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
I meant you to install MultiSwap again. You can choose either one, the difference is that the ViperS one has the oom and vm tweaks already added, that's all.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i installed again

but the weird thing is after installation i checked busybox version and reverted somehow back to 1.22.0:eek:
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Oh did it :D I'll have to fix that, thanks for pointing that out.

Next update when I find some time will not conflict with busybox at all :)

In the meantime this version is still fine to use till then.

EDIT: Do you want to try this test version, might be a quick easy fix for now :fingers-crossed: - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55494910/MultiSwapBanners/MOD/%5BAll-in-One%5DMultiSwap_test.zip

[HTC Sensation] -Jonny-:
Don't know what's happened but using #2 on venom ROM and it's absolutely flying. Loving it!

Question: am I right in thinking that if I use #3 which uses the misc mount, will actually add img files to data/misc and as this isn't a mount it will just use up my data storage space?
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Did you try v1.0.3? I need to update the MOD properly for ViperS ROM and I'll sort out Kitkat too when I do it :good:

Good to hear, thanks for feedback :)

The misc directory is a separate partition, so will not touch your data storage what so ever :good:
[HTC Sensation] m3mmo:
Yes I did.But nothing happens when I reboot.Still no swap files are created :(

Thanks anyway.Regards
[HTC Sensation] -Jonny-:
Ah, yes, I see it's /vendor/firmware/misc not /data/misc

I have a noob question. If cache and misc are not really used, why do we partition them, mount them and use them for swap? Why not just free them up for more RAM? Or if not RAM, why not just have them as normal folders in their prospective positions rather than mount points?

Please no 'you just can't do that' answers. If someone could explain or give me a link (I've searched, but cannot find much information about the physical side of our Senny's).
