Thanks. Finally I can remount it with

RO -> mount -o remount,ro -t f2fs /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system

About Velocity: do you want to build this kernel with f2fs? Maybe tonight I can play with it...

Also, I made this selectable zip HellsDoctor2_R1-F2FS-selectable.zip. It's running great here ;)

Nice guide !!

If you have time and dont mind compiling it then I dont mind !! Anyways if you could compile moob v35 boot.img it could be much more helpful to me since Chad might probably get a F2FS boot.img in d coming days !!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] mikaole:
Don't think he will, cause we can't get it to boot.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jolinnard:
Maybe some partition is not well formatted to f2fs. Are you sure PSX's updater-script format /system to f2fs? Also, have you formatted /data and /cache to f2fs?

Please, try this. boot.img is taken from this test version. To revert (if needed), flash ROM+GAPPS+working f2fs kernel as always.

Bdw anyone out here owning a grouper N7 2012 !! Ill be adding support for it too !!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] mikaole:
Chad tried to make a f2fs bootimage, but it won't boot. Chad tried all what we have found on github and he changed all the things in config, but no luck, bootimage is not booting, so there will be no velocity bootimage.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] NABENDU1:
Sad to hear that :crying::crying:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] fishears:
After you apply the f2fs patches to the kernel source you still need to add the f2fs fstab. Did you do this also?

Yes

I have rebuilt Velocity kernel with f2fs, zImage is here. Is there a flasheable zip somewhere? I can't find information about this project :silly:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RedGoblinz:
[MENTION=361608]nabendu[/MENTION] apparently it didn't work haha.

[MENTION=2002216]jolinnard[/MENTION] Do I have to reformat data if I was already coming from f2fs data?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] senthilrameshjv:
Oh man, i dont wanna use any other kernel. Velocity stock kernel is so good to be missed. I'm gonna use ur velocity F2FS build with Slim boot.img and if I dont see any progress in velocity's F2FS boot img I might even go back to ext4 just for velocity.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] NABENDU1:
Okay Ill do the rest the zlmage is compatible so Ill try android image kitchen change its zlmage with this one change the fstab and repack the boot.img !! I hope this will work !!

Anways this kernel comes with the ROM itself so you wont see any flashable zips around !! Unless there are some test versions

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] deedeeceleb:
Do I have to rename the "selectable" to data-system-cache?

I'm using all-f2fs with psx4.0.2

//renamed, flashed and it booted, but I can't see the data partition - all my apps etc are gone, so something with the fstab might be incorrect?!

Just saw a fstab.goldfish has been created after flashing

//e2

If I only flash with system and cache in its name, it's also booting, but shows "type password to decrypt storage"

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 4 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jolinnard:
No, in the moment you format /data it will remain always as f2fs, unless you format again to ext4 ;) But you can switch /system or /cache whatever you want.

Ok, thanks for testing, something is broken. It happened to me too, but I want a second opinion.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jolinnard:
I make my script better and now it detects automatically the format of every partition, and modifies fstab properly. This should be a "universal" method to detect partitions, so android should never crash because a bad fstab.

So, convert your partitions to the format you want (the stock ext4 or f2fs) and the flash process should setup properly the fstab, even if you get back to ext4 the same kernel should work for you.

At the moment, I made only HellsDoctor zip (HellsDoctor2_R2-F2FS-auto.zip).

Please, try it and let me know if it works ;)

Edit: more kernels with auto fstab: Jolie (Semaphore based), JolieHasYou (Matrix based), JolieInHell (Hellsgod based).

Can you make some cm compatible kernel too?

Enviado de meu Nexus 4 usando Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jolinnard:
Thanks ;)

No, every kernel is made individually. script is only to patch fstab. Every developer use different scripts to patch system files or init stuff, so my script should fit inside and it's not easy.

Yes, you can upload all of them to your drive. I've fixed a typo and I've updated all the auto kernels some minutes ago, please download them again.

I don't use CM, but if you have zImage of your favorite kernel you can override it in my zips and check it out. Should work...

Could you please show us how to patch kernels ? Helldoctor R3 is out... :)

Edit : It's already compatible..

Envoyé de mon Nexus 4 en utilisant Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jolinnard:
Ok, I will try to explain what I'm doing: I have to read all the zip code, understand what's doing the flash process. Then I add my script inside the code. In this way when you flash the zip, the script detects what format has every partition and write a correct fstab entry. That's all. There are some kernels that haven't f2fs support, so in this case I need to download the code, patch and build them.

I have uploaded a zip for R3 here this afternoon. I haven't time to test it, but should work. This zip have the original Hellsdoctor kernel image, I only patch the zip.

Cm users needs a patched based kernel, with one more line in it, could you please do it ? Attached is lastest boot.img from crdroid rom (CM based)

BIG EDIT : Ok, i think i managed to mod the slimboot.img to make it work with cm roms (bootclasspathmodified in init.environ.rc), but it still need a cm kernel flashed on top of it... No more phone FC here ! =)

Include it in any cm zip rom to replace the non F2FS boot.img, flash a cm kernel (i used HellsDoctor R3 CM) and it's good !

If I want to go back, it's mentioned to format data after flashing normal recovery. Then flash restore partition. Once I format data I'll not have anything in phone. Should I side load this zip and the rom?

Or can I flash normal recovery, then restore zip, then normal rom and then format data?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sidnoit22:
Wiping your Data will be good. It will cause some issues if just flash the zips and the recovery.

You can just do

After you wipe data to get it on there.

You need to flash again a

then update to a

then you can flash CM.

my xperia z ultra is C6806, but your torrent link says the file is for C6833. So will this file work on my Xperia Z Ultra C8606?

You need to flash again a

FTF [512 NUT] (Torrent Download)

ok I am flashing "FTF [512 NUT] (Torrent Download)"

but how to, " then update to a

.290 or a .136 Rom"?

will i flash again with ".290 or a .136 Rom"?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
yes, just flash an newer FTF. Any thing from .290 will do, but I would go for the newest so the 757 FTF
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ornobohornish:
dear sir

sir I know i am disturbing you but I am sorry!

1. first I am downloading ""FTF [512 NUT" abd i will install it by flashtool?

2. then i will download again ".290 or a .136 Rom" and flash it by flashtool?

so why i am down load the two ftf file and why I need to flash both?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
The 532 one by [NUT] will restore the lost IMEI (there are other ways to do it but flashing that FTF is as simple as it can get)

the .290/.136/.757 is to bring you back to the newer firmware that is needed by the newer ROMs. If you are going to flash a 4.3 based ROM then use .290 or .136, if you are going to use a 4.4 ROM (or if you just want the latest Sony release) then flash the .757 FTF

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mr.lockyer:
This might be an enormously newbie question, but if I have a work desktop connected to the internet via the LAN, can I add a bluetooth dongle to it to connect my Jasjar to the internet?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 8YEight:
I think you can. You can sync your xda with Active Sync. Then it will use the internet connection from your PC, just like when you have it connected with the USB cable.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 8YEight:
I just tried this and it worked.

What you gotta do is the following:

- Open your bluetooth connections on your PC

- Add new device

- Make sure you have your bluetooth turned on on your Universal and make detection of other devices possible

- Add your device on the PC

- Now go to the COM port tab

- Choose add and choose a new incomming port (your PC will make a new COM port, make sure this number is below 20)

- Open Active Sync on your universal and choose "menu" connect with bluetooth

- Now Active Sync will say that there are no devices are installed. Add a new device (your PC)

- You will see that the service "Active Sync" is available. Now check this option

- Now you can make the connection with your PC and also will be able to use the internet connection

A friend told me that the internet connection won't go faster then GPRS, so don't expect much. But you have your free wireless internet connection within a range of about 10 meter from your PC.

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] sidnoit22:
SOURCE : KICKEDFACE :cool:

Chrome for Android is one of the fastest and most feature-rich browsers for Android. But a persistent problem has ruined Google’s mobile browser for many users – janky scrolling.

Especially since Google replaced the AOSP Browser with Chrome as the default browser on new Android devices, people have been complaining about a perceived lag when scrolling through web pages (except simple ones) or swiping and resizing. And it’s not a problem of hardware, as the old Browser was consistently performing better in this area even on two-year old devices.

Now Redditor erythrocytes64 suggested a simple tweak that actually seems to work at making Chrome for Android scroll smoother. We tried it ourselves on two devices, and the change, while not tremendous, is visible. In addition, many commenters on the Reddit thread report positive results.

Without further ado, this is what you have to do:

Type or paste chrome://flags in the URL bar in Chrome for Android

Find the Maximum tiles for interest area (#max-tiles-for-interest-area ) flag in the list

From the dropdown, change from Default to 512

Tap on the Relaunch Now button to commit the change.

What the change seems to do is allocate more RAM to Chrome for Android, and improve the scrolling speed in the process. The caveat is that, especially on devices with less RAM, other apps might be purged from memory sooner because Chrome gets more of it. If that’s an issue for you, try experimenting with different values instead of 512, e.g. 256.

Flags in Chrome (for Android and for desktop) are experimental and meant to allow advanced users to tweak things that are not quite suitable for the average user. If anything goes awry, you can always clear application data to revert to the default settings.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] GodXen:
Have you guys noticed after KitKat update that theres no sound when you unlock your device?

I have noticed, and there was some other forums people was looking for a fix..

I found simple and and weird fix :)

If you turn on (Settings>Device>Sound>Screen lock sounds) lock sounds, and you cant hear any sound when unlocking, theres a simple but weird bug to enable it:

1. Go to: Settings>Device>Wallpaper>Home and lock screens

2. Choose Live wallpapers

3. Choose one of live wallpapers. (I got only two one that came with software Bubbles and Phase Beam, but im sure that would work with others also, Test by yourself.)

4. So now you can lock/unlock with sound. Yes i know the sound is way different than was before :)

Hope you enjoy my finding.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] PedroMarthon:
Hello all, as some of you know that there is a way that lets you increase your device's ram capacity, and that is by swap, well am here to give you simple and easy steps to enable swap on your device.I only tested this on few devices so don't complain if it didn't work.

I'am not responsible for any damage could happen, you are doing it at your own risk.

Prerequisites

1-An android phone (duhh :p )

2-Must be rooted.

3-Busybox xbin. (Read below)

4-

Kernel Must Support Swap

Tested devices

-Galaxy Ace S5830

-Galaxy Ace S5830i

-Galaxy Ace 2

-Galaxy S4 (don't ask why!)

-Galaxy S4 mini

-Galaxy Ace Plus

-Sony Xperia Sola

Tested android versions

-2.3.x

-4.0.x

-4.1.x

-4.2.2

-4.3.0

-4.4.2 (got some problems)

-4.4.4 (got some problems)

kitkat users may find a problem that swap has a limit of 50 MB or 150 MB ( Caused by the new 4.4.x kernel Just Try It)

Installing busybox xbin

{If you are not sure what is this then just go to how to swap

And if swap didn't work the come back here and apply the steps}

1-Download busybox from playstore or buy the pro version

2-Run busybox

3-Wait for the loading

4-Then normal install or smart install in case you are in pro.

5-When done installing restart your phone

How to swap

1-Install simple root swap

2-Run it and give it root permission

3-Specify the size of swap file (how much MB you want to add as virtual ram) (big size needs more time)

4-Create swap file

5-Check enable at boot

6-Click on

7-Check if the swap worked

8-Enjoy...

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Deleted member 5617821:
Since the swap file in made on the SD Card, No, it will not damage your system but there is a high chance it can affect the SD Card. If you have an SD Card, then yes you can try this on Auto Navi System with Android 4.0.3. Make sure to have a class 8 or greater SD Card to get maximum speed. Hope I Helped :)

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Deleted member 5617821:
Can you find the swap file on your SD Card? If not then can you tell us exactly what happens when you choose to create swap?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MorgenTee:
The file is there, it has the size that I choose in "Simple Root Swap". I tried 200 MB and 100 MB.

The "Info" tab of "Simple Root Swap" tells me however:

Status Swap:

Total Swap: 0MB

Used Swap: 0MB

Free Swap: 0MB

When I open a terminal emulator "free" tells me 0 swap, "swapon -a" tells me that /etc/fstab does not exist...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Deleted member 5617821:
Did you press the On button below Auto Start? Once you create the Swap file using the Re/ Create button, tick the Auto Start box and press the On button below that. That should activate swap on SD Card. Now check Info to see your swap details or use "free" on Terminal. Do post the result. Hope I Helped :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MorgenTee:
I have done that already. After the creation of the swap file, I checked "Auto Start" and clicked "on". I also tried restarting the phone, but it didn't change anything.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Deleted member 5617821:
Did you install BusyBox? Creating and running swap requires certain binaries which may not be present in the rom by default. Do post the result.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MorgenTee:
Yes, I followed the instructions (see below) in the first post exactly.

Is it possible that the kernel I am using is lacking swap capabilities and therefore, the app cannot make swap work?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Deleted member 5617821:
Since you have followed all the instructions perfectly, it must be the kernel. Rafael's kernel does have swap support though.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MorgenTee:
