downloading :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
Hi!

I have other solution, I think is a better way than directory blind.

Go to settings / storage / unmount SD card (40mb), when play store no detect SD card, force the installation in internal memory (real SD card).

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] nikolas1274:
Nice work my friend, i have a few questions:

1. When are we doing repartition, we will lost all our data from internal storage (app & etc)? We have to install all apps and data from the begin?

2. What happen at rom updates?

thanks
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] busote:
It is necessary to do safety copy of everything, puts it in the instructions.

When you update rom it is like previously, does not get lost at all.

request

can anyone make a video of the whole process, ? i don't want to brick my phone :)

i did it, successfully bootloopped my device,

after some commands there is a question of yes or no, i chose yes and continued, and everthing was destroyed :(
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
You can't make a brick, when anywhere is not good, just instal whit odin with 3 files, csc, pda and pit and works all...

The proces is really easy, I have make de instruction proces file. ...

Before the instruction I have 2 half brick, and busote 8 half brick and 6 odin flash in one day... Hahahah

Now, is instruction for noobs without error.

Mmmm, you have not make all steps...

You have a instruction for turn back repartition, flash with odin, you have in adb.zip all downloads links.

What is for diferent this time vs yesterday?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] hackuletz16:
Yesterday, there is a yes and no at the early stage,,, while today there's nothing,, also i used 40 mb yesterday,, i used 100 and it worked fine,,, i think it is because of my data,, it exceeds 40 mb so i can't restore
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
I'm happy! Lol
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] nikolas1274:
I read at your instruction that before all we have to swap internal with external memory, what will happen if we swap after repartition?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] hackuletz16:
Thanks!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
Sorry for delay.

Android write automatically data from apps in internal memory (Android data/obb, lost . dir, etc) when you have only 172 kb or 40 mb is not enough free space, then you have errors.

Sorry for my bag English, have you me understand?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] nikolas1274:

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] hackuletz16:
After i unmounted the sdcard, the playstore crashes,, and i can't install swords and sandals 5 when i tried again
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
@up: only must unmount sdcard, when have swap memory and Google play install data from app in sdcard (only are 172kb,40mb or the value from name of instruction file)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] hackuletz16:
thanks, so i need to repartition to 40 mb,?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
@up i not recommended nothing, only say temporary must unmount sdcard for install some app.

I have 172kb repartition, it's the minimal in CM based roms
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] hackuletz16:
question

to be clear, do i need to restore the partition first before i change it again?

it says partition does not exist, when i tried it again
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] pedroleon99:
@up yes i did it too because are needed stock partitions

Inviato dal mio GT-I8160 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
@up, no, is not necessary! You can make the same, with all command, only you haves error in rm 11 because now not exist, but it normally, you can change de partition without restore partition
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] hackuletz16:
We need to restore i think,,, now i cant access my storage
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
I have tested when we are making this method go from X repartition to N repartition, without problems...

Only rm 11 say not exists because really not exists...

I have doing that without problems, when you have problems or bootloop you have not all steps good make
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Ryccardo:
easier, get Link2SD and change default app storage to internal ;)

(as already said, doesn't work for apps with OBB, but that's a different issue anyway)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
Yes! But we are talking about apps with data / obb and with swap memories.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Ryccardo:
Someone could try porting the /media in /data system as used on the Nexus...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] FullDroid:
Can you explain this? I talking with busote... He is the developer!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Ryccardo:
Many new Android phones don't have a dedicated partition for /sdcard, a software solution (FUSE, I've heard) creates a virtual FAT partition for all apps that expect internal storage to be there... and it's not just a disk image, the actual files are put directly in /data/media so you can still access it in recovery with minor modifications

The only major disadvantage is that mass storage mode becomes impossible to implement, advantages are being able to use ext4/whatever even though FAT is expected and of course sharing the free space of one partition!

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AntaresOne:
The "old" and mine method works really fine too and I made it to let you take full control when repartitioning. I'm not saying that your work is useless, just a bit "close" for not-expert users that don't know what to do to personalize partitions' size, in this case just a simple mod in your files, good to see new things in STE phones' development. But I have a Windows program under development to allow full control and user-friendly repartition

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] BoogeyCZ:
Can you provide working download link? Thank you.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] jonessl:
1) Link is dead, therefore the adb.zip file cannot be downloaded or examined..

2) Does this tool (or is there another way) allow one to create specifically-sized partitions, such as /system, or is it a more basic tool that simply increases the size of /data? I need to increase the size of the /system area within the EMMC (which is not the same as "creating" a larger RAM as some suggest).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] WezzleD:
Hey all. I have an at&t GS4 running MF3. I remember when MF3 first came about how everyone was saying it will be impossible to downgrade this firmware. My question is has someone figured out a way to do it yet? I don't understand why this "qfuse?" would stop us from downgrading our devices. My main goal with a downgrade is to be able to install GPE KitKat. I currently have safestrap but i believe it is still limited by not being able to use roms that are not 4.2.2. Hope to get some help soon. Please don't be rude and thank you for your help.

Oh! Also if there is another way to run GPE KitKat on MF3 please let me know! Maybe safestrap can do that now! idk.

Again thanks for all the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jmjoyas:
There is no way yet to downgrade to a lower version with the locked bootloader. The fuse count is stored in the aboot and when flashing in download mode, it checks if the one being written has same or higher count. If not, it will fail the write and hence we wont be able to downgrade.

The locked bootloader puts the restriction on safestrap. We can only successfully boot a ROM that matches the base firmware version. This is because we cannot flash a kernel that doesnt match the bootloader. So, if you are on MF3, you can boot roms that are based on 4.2.2 only.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] WezzleD:
So basically no one has yet to find a way to boot anything higher than 4.2.2? That sucks :/ oh well then. Will just do gpe 4.2.2 with the Google home app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] NighthawkXL:
I assume since your on MF3 that your in reference to running custom 4.2.2 ROM"s via Safestrap...

You can move up to running custom 4.3 ROM's if you update to the MK2 firmware and use the latest version of Safestrap. This is currently the best option for a non-MDL device. I suggest updating to MK2 and loading a 4.3 ROM like Hyperdrive.

Alternatively, you can upgrade to MK2 and use the Deadly Venom Kitkat Tool to run 4.4 ROM's...

I'd HIGHLY suggest reading this thread...

Every phone I pick up and play with is much slower (ie completing a simple task such as turning on, unlocking, sending an SMS, go back home then turn off) than my N5 I've had since launch day. Rooted, stock ROM and kernel, with xposed gravity.

We have a lot of different phones in my family and are on both VZW and TMO networks. 4 iPhone's (4, 4s, and 2 5s's), GS3, 4 GS4's, MotoX, and a BB.

I've also played with friends G2, M7, M8, and RAZR Maxx. There is nothing as snappy as the N5 on KK to date. Not even close imo. Anyone else feel this way when they pick up another mobile device?

Nexus5
[Nexus 5 General] Beauenheim:
Its the fastest device right now for sure.
[Nexus 5 General] -Grift-:
Yeah came from the SII I9100 and android never looked the same :3

Jumped from

Dual core 1.2 GHz --> Quad core 2.3 GHz

1GB RAM --> 2GB RAM

4.3 Inch screen --> 5 Inch screen

The next time I change my phone its either a Nexus or im jumping ship :)
[Nexus 5 General] mufaa:
I have a iPhone 5S, HTC One (old) and an HTC Desire-some****. All of them feel slower than my Nexus 5.

Even iPhone 5S. It isn't slow. It's extremely snappy. The speed is comparable to the Nexus 5 but it doesn't feel faster (maybe due to animations, I guess).

Nexus 5 is pretty great. Between 100% to 60% batter charge, the phone is blazing fast. Then it drops in performance to save battery, I think. But not by much.
[Nexus 5 General] italia0101:
I'd class the Nexus 5 as the smoothest for sure, fastest? I'm not so sure, my m8 is one snappy beast, but it's not as smooth IMO,

Probably due to the difference in transitions
[Nexus 5 General] anshmiester78900:
Same here man I too switched from S2 to N5 :)
[Nexus 5 General] eotheod:
Yeah, its definitely one snappy phone. I found it about on par with a GPE HTC One, which isn't as bloated as the standard Sense HTC One.

The iPhone 5S feels "slower", but that could just be all of the silly transitions that Apple added in.
[Nexus 5 General] ash1684:
I have a GS3 and replaced it with N5. When i use the GS3 from time to time, it feels sooooooo slow....

Anyway my girlfriend's GS4 on KK feels a lot faster than GS3 but a whole lot slower than N5.

Just wanted to let you know the CPU speed does not change based on battery, even if you're at 5%. It does slow down if the phone is getting hot though.

[Nexus 5 General] a.vandelay:
iphone 5s with its A7 "cyclone" chip should be the fastest, although it's running a different os so there's no fair comparison. i'd love love love to have an android phone on apple's soc, although with more RAM perhaps.
[Nexus 5 General] ej8989:
The transitions are all optical illusions so people can call it a fast phone. Good thing they added an option to reduce motion. Without those transitions you can immediately notice that those devices are dual core.

I've had a chance to try an LG G2 and though it has a similar chip, it does not feel smooth like the nexus 5. It stutters everywhere. However, the time it takes to open and close apps are about the same; but still, something feels wrong.
[Nexus 5 General] md1008:
I agree, had the note 2 which I loved for the size and the spent. I even swore no phone without spen. After using the nexus 5 sold the N2 and never looked back. The note 2 was so slow compared to the N5.

Although I am really interested in the HTC M8. With SD card I can finally put all my music on the SD card plus with there being a Google play edition I don't suppose updates will be an issue. Even if I buy the T-Mobile version I can still install latest update if sense lags.

[Nexus 5 General] mgymnop:
I had a HTC One M7 GPE before and the N5 is much smoother and faster especially scrolling through Google+, Facebook etc.
[Nexus 5 General] LiquidSolstice:
However, smoothness comes from animation, not immediately jolting you from one static app to another (which is rather jarring from a user experience point of view). In that regard, when it comes to making a pleasant operating system, Apple has it right. Of course, on my Nexus 5, I just bump up the animations to either 1.5x or 2x and I love it.

It's nice to have a smooth animation between screens because by the time the animation has finished, the app is fully loaded and ready to go. That makes Android feel a lot more polished to me (especially since Android's multitasking is still so unpredictable in terms of whether or not that app you just left will still be in the same state when you resume; often times, it needs to refresh itself before I can start tapping away).

Put simply, I don't care if animations are "tricking" me into thinking my phone' OS is smooth. The effect it has on the user experience makes those animations worth using. :)
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
i never use the animations, and have been disabling them for years. if you think your phone feels smooth with the animations, itll feel much more smooth without. and faster!
[Nexus 5 General] LiquidSolstice:
Trust me, I've tried. It really doesn't. Because no matter what runtime you use, what kernel you use, what optimization you use, the first time you launch any app (at least first time from boot) there's always a black screen while the app fully loads into memory. If I can have an animation visually transition into the app directly, I'd always take that hands down.
[Nexus 5 General] jbdan:
Good point. I like the adjective "snappy" best I guess. Speed was probably not the best word to use. The total experience of the N5 with the googs KK is the most fluid mobile device I've had the pleasure of using :)

Nexus5
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
a black screen?

ive never had a black screen while loading an app, ever(on my nexus 5).
[Nexus 5 General] LiquidSolstice:
It's very quick, but it precedes a lot of apps on their first launch. It's not a "problem", it's just what you see when there's no transition (sometimes). For instance, if you open the clock app for the first time on a fresh boot, you'll see a black screen before all the elements are drawn.

It's really a much more trivial issue than I'm making it out to be, I'm just sharing my opinion that whether trickery or not, animations occupy the time that it would normally take to show me that "pre-app" screen before apps, and for me, that makes the whole operating system feel much more polished.
