I have some questions about cm-11 on A510. Didn't want to start a new thread so I'll ask here.

I've build the latest cm-11 from source and all would be good if /system partition would have more space for Gapps. Now its couple of MB's to small.

I know the easy way to solve this would be to manually remove some .apk from rom. But I don't like the idea of doing it manually every time i want to flash.

So is there a prefered way to automate this?

Also I don't see removing some .apk as a permanent solution because in time more and more .apk's should be removed.

So is it possible to resize partitions on A510? If it is then how?

Other solution that came to mind. My /cache partition is 1.2GB and /system is 344MB. Would it be safe and possible to swap mounting for those partitions?

Will 344MB be good for cache? For that should I edit just "fstab.acer"?

Hi guys,

I'm not sure if I'm the only one with that issue but since the stable nightly I have experienced a higher battery usage than with the M5.

Finally, it's taking much longer until the battery is full again. E.g.: Power adaptor plugged in at 20% (after a drop from 30%) and after 4,5 hours 90% was reached.

The most strange thing was: I have unplugged the tab at 90% and one hour later it was showing 98% :confused:. What's that? :D

Anyone an idea?

Sent from my A510
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Shreps:
You can play with partitions if you want (resizing or swaping the way they are mounted, etc..), but keep in mind :

- Making a modification in partition layout implies a custom Recovery with the same modification in order to flash properly your ROM

- Your ROM will not be compatible with a "classic recovery" (CWM or TWRP)

- If something got wrong, we don't have tools to hard-flash the tablet and re-partition it, so it's your own risk.

I have already think about this size problem with /system

The only clean solution in my opinion is to find a way to use the "FLEX" partition. This partition is a custom one made by Acer, unused by CWM or CM.

In the Stock Acer ROM, this partition is used in order to store every Acer apps (not system)

This could be awesome to "mount" /system/app on this partition, but not so easy :p

Maybe [MENTION=4392945]Elibl[/MENTION] has some time to work on it :D

Yes, should work fine :)

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Elibl:
just one line if it works like i expect it to and mounting a fs within a fs doesn't give problems (may updater script compatibility or others)

but would need testing

going to address this but have a lack of time the next 2 months so afterwards...

needs debugging i already researched a lot and went through the codes for it with no result

need to debug it with access to the tab -> going to address it again after the 2 months...
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Shreps:
yes, modifying the updater script and

- format the flex partition

- install apps on it

- clean the /system/app dir

and on boot, on the ROM : mount flex in /system/app

Like you said, need some testing, but right now, I'm a little busy too.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] _Kurosu_:
By the way, my tablet is back having crashes with M5. I do have logs of the kernel oops, potentially related to memory usage (some applications having noticeably usage) or wake-up.

Whom should I send these to ? As far as I know, we're stuck with the current t30 kernel version because of the blobs (android-wise or not), but still, not sending them will not help fix my issue.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Shreps:
CM11, AOKP KK, PAC KK are using the same Device Tree and all of them are pretty stable.

So it depends on which options/fonctionnalities you prefer

You can ask to pawitp who worked on the t30 kernel we're using, and Ziyan who is making a custom t30 kernel (look at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2704515)

Hi all,

it seems there is a problem with the battery loading mode while the tab is switched off.

Normally, a battery symbol should appear if you press the power button shortly but nothing happen respectively the tab powers up.

So, it seems the tab can be loaded during the started ROM only.

Any ideas how to fix that?

Secondly, the battery usage increased in comparison to the M5 version. Don't know if there is a relation.

Thanks a lot!

Just to let you know that my last CM 11 with 4.4.3 is working fine. But we have no more space left on /system, for that reason, we can't flash Gapps.

Flashing this version with Factory reset, we have 13MB space left on /system, and we need 35MB for the latest Gapps 4.4.3 Minimal/Core.

For people who want to try it, here is the zip : cm-11-20140609-UNOFFICIAL-a510-a511 with 4.4.3 (a18293b9580d075ccf78909f33363c84)

And if you want to flash gapps, you will have to remove some APK in /system (like CMWallpapers or others APK you don't need) and flash the 4.4.3 Gapps Minimal by BaNkS : http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358541495

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Elibl:
i think i'm still going to try the system/app way but i've got no time and no access to the tab at the moment...

the cleanest way would be to mount via releasetools.py for recovery install but i don't know if it's possible or the commands for it. if it's not possible i'm planning to modify twrp itself with the keep system mounted flag + mounting flex on top

On pa the Rom is still small enough...

Or you got a better idea?

The lvm way would be the best but i know nothing bout it^^
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Shreps:
I disagree, for me, the best way should be to make a LVM for /system which includes /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP and /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/FLX

with this, we will have a 700MB /system partition (instead of 350MB) and we will no need to modify Gapps package, or Release tool

but it requires a new Recovery to handle it

What do you think about it [MENTION=4392945]Elibl[/MENTION] ?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Elibl:

Thanks Shreps for the hard work. My A510 is alive thanks to you. But I have a question, and sorry if it has been dealt with already. If the partition size can't(or is difficult to) be changed, can you make the rom smaller? Maybe by taking out some apps, and then making them available as apk's or something?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Shreps:
Yes, I can make a smaller ROM by removing some CM Apk (File Explorer, Appollo, CM Wallpaper, etc.)

But this is not a long term solution :)

I can do that just for the last build if you want (but I will not do that for the next build)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] HornetRider:
My solution for a clean installation:

- Flash only CM11

- move the APK for the AOSP Keyboard from system/app to download

- install the keyboard from there

- Flash Gapps

Everything works

But this is also no solution for every update.
