Hi guys,

Maybe sound a noob question, but i have and i dont want made it wrong.

in EXT4 i used the mahdi 2.5 20140424 rom and i have the full fbackup, can i change the file system for F2FS with that rom and aply my DATA backup after flashing?

Only because i dont want lose my configurations on ROM and many settings to do in other aplications..

Best regards for all
[Nexus 4 General] haliski:
[MENTION=4439521]mikaole[/MENTION] As you are back on ext4 for velocity test. Do you feel the difference on ext4 from f2fs on velocity builds? Whats the possibility for updating all stable velocity's builds to f2fs, including the velocity kernel?

Currently on F2FS with Velocity avaiable on your drive + AK.
[Nexus 4 General] mikaole:
I don't know how to make a kernel, so I can't make all f2fs.

New velocity is fine will test it at the weekend on f2fs to compare, but normally the gain from f2fs is not so much on Art roms.
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
A full backup means only a nandroid backup? or you make (emulated) /sdcard backup too? Be careful, because you could lost all your files.
[Nexus 4 General] fr3quency:
The solution is pretty simple actually. :)

1) You can backup your applications(+ data) via using TitaniumBackup.

2) You can backup your SMS with with this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...medium=appbrain_web&utm_campaign=appbrain_web

3)Now, as you have backed up both your apps and sms, move the folders in your sdcard where your backups are(TitaniumBackup folder & the other folder that contains your backed up SMS) to your PC.

4)Follow the instruction to convert your phone to F2FS

5)When all is done, you can move your backup from the PC to your SDCARD and restore your apps+data. :)

I always use Titanium when installing new ROMs and everything works perfectly! :D

Has anyone had success with F2FS and C-Rom 6.2? Someone in this thread says it doesn't work....and 2 people on the C-Rom thread also said they had no luck...
[Nexus 4 General] PatrickMac:
I tried it a few weeks ago and always had phone FC at the first setup window. I'm not sure, but there are some ROM's that need more modifications apart just editing the updaterscript it seems.
[Nexus 4 General] [zozi]:
Thanks in advance.

i do the full backup over TWRP and now i have mahdi ROM instaled, but can i restore the DATA previous made over TWRP?
[Nexus 4 General] PatrickMac:
Does someone know how to make multirom compatible to F2FS? That would be a big success
[Nexus 4 General] mikaole:
You can't restore an ext4 twrp backup on f2fs. You nee titanium or any other backup app to do it, but really when I follow your question and see what people already told you and you still asking that kind of questions it's maybe better you stay on ext4. There could be a chance that something could go terribly wrong. Do you really wanna try.

---------- Post added at 11:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------

Think the only one who can do that is the multirom dev, but till now there is no rom Dev interested in f2fs, so I think he will not be interested. F2fs is to new and till now nobody knows what f2fs is doing to your drive. It's very experimental and far away from spreading. It will need some time and as I told it has nearly no advantage on an optimized Art rom. And Art will be the next big thing for the devs. Google will take that further too and if Google will skip dalvik and only use Art there will be no need for f2fs until Google uses it and make the rom for taking advantage of f2fs. But I highly doubt that this will come in the near future.

[Nexus 4 General] shubu000:
Anyone got the latest version of AK with all f2fs?

i want to try it :)
[Nexus 4 General] fr3quency:
ak supports f2fs out of the box without any further modification. simply grab the latest version for either cm11 or aosp, and you're ready to go! ;)
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
Please, stop saying this. You need to have the correct fstab to make f2fs work. If you are flashing ROMs that have a f2fs kernel (which they have to have fstab patched too) then you can flash all kernels that use Anykernel flash method, because fstab is preserved. But if you use a "classic" ROM that use stock boot.img (then fstab has ext4 filesystems) you need to flash a dedicated f2fs kernel. I personally make zips to patch fstab automatically, so it can be used in both situations (stock and f2fs).
[Nexus 4 General] fr3quency:
You understand that fstab <> f2fs. He asked for all f2fs and ak supports all f2fs and works with PA, PSX, Purity, Velocity, CM11 and the list goes on. What does that mean? It works out of the box WITHOUT any modification.

Do I heave to repeat myself again? You don't need any modification for f2fs on ak. You simply flash and you're ready to go. First then without your modifications, then lecture me.
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
Ok sorry, I misunderstood your words. Obviously if you came from a working f2fs setup, Ak should work :)
[Nexus 4 General] mikaole:
You don't understand before you can flash AK you need to boot into system once with the f2fs bootimage with the right fstab.

If you just flash the rom and kernel in recovery it want boot. That's what jolinard is talking about. It's not ready out of the box.
[Nexus 4 General] fr3quency:
Really? Then you are doing something wrong. It works for me. :D

Wanna know what I do?

1)Format system, data & dalvik.

2)Flash ROM

3)Flash Gapps, camera & keyboard

4)Flash AK kernel

5)Flash Adreno binaries

Then I reboot and guess what? It wooorks. It's magic for you I guess. :p

Edit: I always follow this procedure when I flash a new ROM. So far, PA, PSX, Velocity, Purity and CM11 work with AK kernel with this procedure. :)

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 General] NABENDU1:
Its when you flash the ROM you flash alongwith it a F2FS boot.img which has the F2FS compatible fstab.mako !!

Hence it is like the AK kernel detects the fstab.mako format and then does the rest !!

So suppose u dont have a boot.img supplied while flashing your ROM and then try flashing AK over the ROM it wont boot up imo !
[Nexus 4 General] fr3quency:
Of course, that's the correct way of flashing an F2FS ROM. If you do something, do it right.
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
Yes... that's the reason because I make my kernels. You can do it right with whatever ROM you want (you just need to change all the lines in updater-script that format/mount system in EXT4) and you can have the ROM you want. You don't need to use a F2FS ready packed ROM because my kernels detects all your partitions and write the correct fstab ;)
[Nexus 4 General] sidnoit22:
Another same issue, the hellscore you uploaded shows 3.4.84 but the latest one in the thread shows 3.4.88. :D

But still, it's quicker with the way I tell you. They simply replace the boot.IMG with the one from the modified slimrom, in all-f2fs thread under original development, which takes 5 seconds with winrar. On the other hand, we have to wait for your modified kernel which makes it slower...

But what happens with /system? All ROMs format it to ext4 by default... For that part, you can use [MENTION=4668017]NABENDU1[/MENTION] script for windows to convert any ROM to F2FS compatible or my recently launched Linux script.

Now i've seen how to revert back to non-f2fs mode, but the zip that hs to be flashed is 'untested' it says.

Is it necessary to flash this zip? or is wiping data etc in a normal recovery enough?
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
As I can see, that zip format /system and /cache back to ext4. Seems very simple, and should do the job. /data needs to be wiped from "normal" TWRP (yes, like this part: Go to Wipe Menu and press Format Data (The Big BUTTON!) (You will LOSE all your Data! Music, Movies etc!!))

Use option 12 when asks u to select boot.img (ignore wordings its an aosp kernel with patched fc and not actually a cm kernel .. To lazy to just rename it )

After flashng ROM flash cm kernel zip and revert if it works !! Atlesast it resolves the errors on aosp kenrel

Right now Slimkat weekly and AK kernel. But, you know, I'm switching between kernels quite often. Every developer has his own personality, AK has done a good job with Synapse app and his mods. I really enjoy it. The same happens with the rest of the projects I've built.

[MENTION=2002216]jolinnard[/MENTION], why is your modded AK outdated btw?

When we were discussing some pages ago I wanted to point that out as well. :P

I believe my way(user converting rom to f2fs on their own without any program converter) is faster because: 1)the program took ages for me to decomplie and recompile, unless I was using an older version or someone else's version), while on the other hand winrar repacks everything blazing fast and 2)we don't have to wait for kernels(+outdated) with correct fstab.

No offense, just discussing my point of view.
