A couple of things that I've got to say on this topic as I've been trying hard to make this fs work , I'm pretty close , got a few critical pointers from the mighty dhacker29 :cool: but still working on getting it all to work together .

A kernel that supports f2fs is the easiest part , it was a pain initially patching it , but it still works just like any other kernel , only it supports another fs . It could be applied to any existing kernel very easily . ( I made it into one single git commit )

As I understand from what I've read in the motoX threads and different sources , twrp adopted f2fs as of twrp 2.6 , so recovery supports it , twrp does anyways and I'm sure I could get cm to work too .

The f2fs mkfs tools are present in 4.3 ROM sources all you have to do is edit boardconfig.mk and device.mk to include said tools

I edited the fstab to use f2fs on /data but when I build a ROM and flash , it goes straight to storage crypto unlock , which my guess is because its still ext4 so the /data isn't being loaded and that's why it jumps straight to unlock storage .

That's pretty much as far as I've gotten .

I'm still working on this , I know its a matter of a combo of how the device formats and partitions the /data.

So far no bricks , I've made my sdcard unmountable , but I just side loaded a ROM and reboot recovery and alls well . I adb pulled my entire sdcard just in case tho lol

If ever this works and its worth people using , not my call , it would be quite painfree . it would require a format of your sdcard , but only once .

And the reason that this is only applied to data and not all partitions is because the only benefits are from the userdata partition , its been tested .

Just sitting here watching my laptop compile yet again .....

Also its more than just a kernel for the gnex. Once all ROMs and kernels support both , it its totally possible , to say in aroma , pick which fs you want formatted , again you would lose your sdcard each time you switch but there's no way around it . just thinking outloud but I need to find out how I can have the install script format the data partition and mount it f2fs. Thats where its at
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
I'm waiting to continue this when I buy a new phone in the next month or so , when I retire my nexus I'll throw everything at it without worry , I am only concerned about partitioning my storage to f2fs , then if my ROM recovery and kernel doesn't work , being stuck with no way to repartition back to ext4 , but I don't think that's a possibility anyways as long as I can get back to recovery or adb I'm OK

Sorry bout the delay , but there's only so much experimentations I can do on my main phone . hopfully I'll have an end product to test soon . everything's just sitting waiting to be flashed . its frustrating waiting so if I get brave this weekend I might just try anyways
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shidell:
Awesome progress man, you've accomplished a ton!

Is it necessary to partition Recovery as F2FS?

In my mind, it seems like you could stick with an EXT4 Recovery, and simply partition /System as F2FS, and flash a compatible ROM (as this is what the Moto X/G currently do), and that should be enough to see initial gains. Of course, if every partition is F2FS, there would be even more room for improvement--but /System should be enough at first.

Is there concern that partitioning /System could cause a brick? As long as you have a Recovery that can partition EXT4 or F2FS, you could always re-partition it easily from Recovery, right?

EDIT: I do understand your concern, though. It's possible to format via ADB, right? So, for example, if I wanted to be a guinea pig for you and flash my phone, I could do so--and if things go awry, I could repartition and restore from a NAND backup, right? As long as you can ADB in, and you can partition via ADB, seems like you can't really brick a device; that'd be like "bricking" a HDD by partitioning from FAT32 to NTFS to EXT4, wouldn't it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
From what I understand , the recovery can stay as is , twrp simply has the ability to recognize f2fs partitions , so once you are using f2fs , your data will be readable.

The actual partitioning tools are located within the ROM . it gets formatted upon flashing.

My concern is that if I repartition the entire /system partition , I could possibly lose the efs data , radio data too . from everything I've read on f2fs , its only beneficial on /userdata , and maybe /cache .

When I did flash an early build of twrp and the aokp ROM I made , when I booted to recovery I couldn't get my data to be read by twrp. So I sideloaded a ROM , then fastbooted a different recovery and all was good .

I don't really think I can brick my phone with what I have made now , its only being used on the data. I should be able to use adb or recovery or a combo to get it back from brick , but for now I really don't think it would be worth you trying just yet. I'll test it soon and if its good I'll post it , but I'm 99% sure it won't work lol . if it was an actual sdcard it would be so simple , but I know its gonna take a few more builds to figure it out . hang tight and I'll report what the outcome is asap ,

I'm still trying to figure out how to actually repartition the sdcard , I've tried modding the updater-script to do it but it status 7'ed on me .

I need to do some more trial and error but again all the pieces are there I think , just need to get it all working together . I'm gonna check out the motoG gits for some inspiration.

EDIT: i was looking in the motoX threads and i noticed that they were in fact formatting through twrp so im gonna explore that

If there is something you cant solve, feel free to pm me. I have patched my cwm based recovery to read and format f2fs. This way i can format one or the other easily.

I am COMPLETELY NEW, to the wonderful world of rooting, bricking, etc. I have recently used poot. apk, as well as ministro II, and after obtaining root access, I started to backup my phone. When i started, my phone, which is an LG Optimus Elite, has gotten stuck in downloading mode. To be precise, the phone has LG at the top, and under it, in a gray box. It says, " Download is in progress. Do not disconnect cable." Ive tried removing the battery, nothing. Tried to do a hard reset, and it doesnt even so much as flash. It has been stuck at this screen for a week now. I have looked through multiple videos, and threads. Still i am without my phone, and i really do not want to purchase a new phone. Can anybody help me please???:(

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arie001:
I rooted using ioroot12 and tried installing recovery using both play store CWM installer for D800 as well as a manual install using the method shown in a thread in the D800 development forum. Both methods appear to install successfully but when I reboot to recovery I get a black screen (can tell black light is lit though) and nothing else. Holding the power eventually reboots phone back into the stock os. When in the broken recovery status and connected to computer via USB I get a slew of drive letters all prompting to format.

I'm guessing those are all the directories on the phone which are formatted android fs?

Any ideas what is happening? ioroot12 contains some changes to be compatible with the latest OTA, maybe the stock recovery file structure changed a little after the OTA?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] podagee:
i repeatedly tried over and over after the ota.... it wont work you have to go back to stock reset. root then install twrp or cwm. twrp worked for me and cwm messed up my device causing a complete wipe of everything including logos and everything just a black screen that wouldnt power on. 30 minutes later it booted back up??? be careful.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arie001:
Thanks

Thanks, probably saved my phone from certain destruction. I followed the steps to go back to stock and successfully rooted and was able to install custom recovery finally.

I seem to recall the OTA taking a long time for being so small, I wonder if they played with partition sizing or something on the "o" firmware.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] podagee:
i only seen that the att apps were updated after the update as well as a security update tightening up their security for their bootloader.as far as partitioning uncertain on that.

glad it worked for you.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzmotoninja83:
I spent a few hrs last night into the am trying to root and flash a working recovery. Just realized my phone auto updated to the OTA and, think I need to go back to the pre-ota. For whatever reason, I can't get twrp to update, no matter how I try to flash it.

If you're on 10o now, try using FreeGee from the Play Store, as mentioned, to get twrp installed.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzmotoninja83:
heres what youre failing to realize..... with 2.6.3.0 I cant flash anything other than, nothing. Everything fails..... I cannot upgrade to the later versions of twrp, any way shape form or fashion. thanks tho
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4570d0n:
I couldn't get the 10o OTA to install but I used FreeGee to install TWRP and it was incredibly easy/simple. I've seen a few people now that have said they were also able to flash TWRP after upgrading to 10o using FreeGee as well.

If you have TWRP installed already you can just boot into recovery, flash a new TWRP or CWM recovery zip and then go to the "Advanced" menu and select Reboot>Recovery to boot into recovery again and you'll be in the new recovery you just flashed.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzmotoninja83:
I tried that like 30 times over the last 2 days. I finally got flashtool to go back pre ota and now I'm running PA and have 2.6.3.3 for twrp. My reason for things not working is, I think that when I flashed something, it stuck making the code all jacked. Please next time, don't ASSume that because its supposed to work that it always will. There will always be human error.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] CobraStrike:
Hey guys,

I've spent countless hours trying to resolve this myself to no avail... So I've come to pray to the XDA Gods for help!

So here's some back story...

Was running Mike's ARHD ROM and loving it.

A part of the screen became unresponsive, so attempted to restore everything back to stock so I can cash in on my HTC warranty...

**This is where things went horribly wrong**

Was following a guide, which got me back to S-ON, tamper flag removed and LOCKED.

Downloaded a stock RUU and ran it and got ERROR CODE 155.

Now, I'm stuck in the boot menu with no custom recovery or ROM so this is the furthest I can go.

Also, for whatever reason my computer stopped recognizing it when I plug it in so I can't seem to use ADB/revone for anything.

Boot menu currently shows:

*** TAMPERED ***

*** LOCKED ***

M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH

HBOOT- 1.55.0000

RADIO-4A.22.3263.04

OS-3.62.401.1

I've also tried a few different RUU's with the same result.

*** I'm a noob, so please be easy on me and help me through this... :eek: I would GREATLY appreciate it. I'm not a wealthy man and I love this phone and just want it fixed. ***
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] CobraStrike:
UPDATE:

Managed to UNLOCK my bootloader once again and gain access to my phone once more...

Lost my custom ROMs/backups, but stock works.

Still has tampered flag and haven't flashed a custom RUU (besides the failed ones that got me to this point).

Could any of you help or point me in the direction of a tutorial for restoring to complete stock?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ind3lible:
I will take a look thank you!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
You don't need to root to downgrade.

1. Install custom recovery through Odin but do not check the reboot option.

2. Pull battery and disconnect from PC.

3. This is the hard part. Press and hold vol+, menu, and power while inserting the battery.

4. In recovery flash stock mc2 with counter reset. Also if you want root flash that also.

5. Now you have are on full mc2 ( baseband, radio, bootloader, ROM, and kernel)

This is a tried and proven method of downgrade for those with and without root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ind3lible:
When you say flash MC2 with counter reset that is from this thread right? : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2086769 Just want to make sure! Thank you and also what recovery do you suggest?

Okay. I'm looking to get 5 row by 5 column support for Launcher3 in CM11. First off I know there are great third party launchers out there, and I'm actually using Nova Prime right now to get 5x5 support. However I would love to have 5x5 support in the native built in launcher. I was a huge fan of Trebuchet in CM10.2.

So far I've looked at this:https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...c/com/android/launcher3/DynamicGrid.java#L550

it doesn't seem to work as the profile for Nexus 7 lists 6x6 but it does 4x6 in landscape and 6x5 in portrait.

I can get Launcher3 to run in 5x5 mode if I change build.prop down to 320dpi. However it makes everything on the phone almost unusable.

Anyone know where I might start to look to force Launcher3 into 5x5 mode?

While I'm loving just about every aspect of my new Moto X, I'm having one issues with the camera.

First, while the flash seems both bright and even, it seems that the the phone is capturing the photo a split second too late. What I mean by that is, the photo is lit enough to see, but it is as if it was not captured at maximum brightness, but rather a split second late as the flash faded.

Has anyone else noticed this? Clearly a software issue from what I can see, but slightly frustrating nonetheless.
