F2FS

Done :good::good::good:

Feels so snappier and fast... :laugh:

Thanks lego ,nabendu and all others for this... :D
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
I'm not seeing any version upper than 211 in AK's website. Anyway I'm updating my builds when I can or when someone request it to me. I can't follow all threads of all developers.

And, again, I'm doing those mods to make life easier. If you want to flash an EXT4 ROM, do it, flash it and flash any (auto) kernel I posted, because it should boot. You want to get back to all f2fs? No problem, my script will detect and patch fstab every time. Think about it like a lifeboat.

Hi [MENTION=3382371]zorginho[/MENTION]. Forget the selectable stuff. Lastest zips I made patch automatically the right fstab in every situation (look for "auto" in the name). So just convert your partitions to f2fs, flash any ROM you want (previously converted to f2fs) and the kernel you desire.

My Slimkat weekly is converted with my own script for Linux. But [MENTION=4668017]NABENDU1[/MENTION] makes one for Windows too. The patch process is easy to make by hand if you want, you should change 2 or 3 lines inside the zip.

Good luck!

Hellsdoctor2 R5T2 is out to resolve some issues. Can you make it flashable to f2fs? Many thanks!
[Nexus 4 General] fr3quency:
Yeah I know what you mean. On another note, AK new version is online on his site. :)
[Nexus 4 General] gharrrrrr:
Hells doctor is already f2fs compatible. Says so right in the OP for that kernel. Part of the update was even a F2FS update.

you mean I can just grap it and flash it in the recovery without changing anything? Is so, that's great! I thought we have to modify updater-script, fstab and so on before we flash it.

Hey Can we have a stock google kernel f2fs compatible? It would be awesome..
[Nexus 4 General] ph37rd:
Wouldn't you achieve the same thing converting a stock flashable ROM with legolas's new app?
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
Ready to test? If so, please download and flash this. It's stock source code, built with arm-linux-androideabi-4.7 toolchain. F2FS patches are applied and the zip contains my script to mount partitions automatically. I haven't tested it.

Please, notice that this zip is an anykernel derivative, so it repacks your current boot partition. To do it right, please, flash before a ROM or a kernel that brings stock boot.img inside.
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
Ok so can I flash a f2fs rom and then this kernel and reboot.. it work right?

You can make the latest F2FS of Purity if no one has made using either nabendu script or legolas app...

You have flash twrp via fastboot
[Nexus 4 General] mikaole:
You can flash it via fasboot, with flashify, or if you have a flashable zip just out of twrp.
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
Yes. Should work in any case. Even if you came back to stock (ext4), my kernel should patch fstab every time ;)

[Nexus 4 General] CallMeAldy:
Could you please elaborate?

Well, i just did this:

Download compatible ROM

Download FormatPartitions.zip

Download "special" TWRP for All-F2FS: openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-mako-All-F2FS.img

(This is different for that of simply F2FS)

Copy FormatPartitions.zip and ROM on Phone

Flash "special" TWRP with Fastboot

Flash FormatPartitions.zip with new Recovery

Reboot Recovery

Flash ROM with new Recovery

Flash HellsDoctor Kernel

(Flash GApps with new Recovery)

Go to Wipe Menu and press Format Data (The Big BUTTON!) (You will LOSE all your Data! Music, Movies etc!!)

Reboot

If i dont flash any kernel the rom boots fine, but if i flash a kernel i just get stuck in google logo :s

[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
So I followed all of the instructions in the OP and tried to convert my filesystem to F2FS. The only thing is, when I followed all the steps and did a clean install of my rom (Nexus 5 Experience), when I rebooted to system and checked 'DiskInfo' if it worked, it still said my partitions were ext4. Can anyone possibly tell me why it didn't work?

Sent from my 1961 XP-755
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
Probably, your ROM format your /system again in ext4 and a kernel that mounts all partitions in ext4. You need to change inside your ROM the file "updater-script" and change the format and mount entries. There are posted scripts to do it automatically. Once that is done, flash a kernel that corrects your fstab, like all I build or others posted over there.

Also, you can override the boot.img file inside your ROM by one inside Slimkat. This will ensure to flash a right fstab. After you can flash a kernel that support f2fs.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
Well the rom and kernel are already F2FS compatible if that makes any difference. I don't exactly know how to do that or where to even find it. I read tutorials about this and everything, but I still don't understand it completely. I might just give up on it just cause the only thing it really improves is benchmarks and I probably will never understand it. It Sorry for my incompetence.

Sent from my 1961 XP-755
[Nexus 4 General] jolinnard:
No need to apologize. F2FS is the type of internal partitions. and if you post here, I guess, is because you hear about it or read about it.

I don't know what is changed in your ROM, but maybe you can try to flash Slimkat, posted in OP, and test it. If you confirm that f2fs is complete, you can switch to your favorite ROM.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
Well I did quite a bit of research when I found out about F2FS, and I was reading that the only thing it really improves is benchmark scores. The mako is already a beast and I'm not really the benchmarking type. Unless someone can give me other pros and cons between the two, I don't think I'll fiddle with it too much. I appreciate the hell out of you helping me, but I'm the type that gets frustrated easily with technology if it isn't in my favor and I don't think I'd be able to understand and follow through with it successfully.

[Nexus 4 General] ph37rd:
The N5 Experience ROM isn't F2FS compatible. The AOSP version can be converted to F2FS compatibility with any of the scripts in the N4 F2FS sections or legolas app on the Play Store.

The real benefits to F2FS can be found here: http://lwn.net/Articles/518988/. It really has nothing to do with benchmarks. The file system is based on current technology and is better suited for use in flash memory. It has a lot to do with data integrity and internal housekeeping of the file system.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
So there's no way to get the CM version of Nexus 5 Experience to work? I really like this rom and I'm open to trying new things out, especially if it means improving something. Could you basically walk me through the steps on how to successfully get the rom to work using F2FS?

[MENTION=5330727]andersonaragao[/MENTION] stated in his OP that both versions of the rom and kernels are compatible with F2FS but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. :)

Sent from my 1961 XP-755
[Nexus 4 General] ph37rd:
The easiest way is to use legolas93's android app "Convert to F2FS"

Until a CM CAF boot.img is converted, you'll have to use Anderson's AOSP version. Run the app, converting the ROM. Next, follow the steps in the OP here.

Anderson does great work and is very active and responsive, but from about 6.3 on, I think there's too much going on in the ROM. You'd rarely see ROM problems previous to that build, issues were, generally speaking, user problems. Not so much lately.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
I didn't know that the CM version doesn't work, thank you for clearing that up. Ugh, I just got done clean installing the rom and I'm satisfied with it. Well, if the conversion really does make a difference then I'm all for it. I just hope it's all worth it in the end.

What do you mean there's too much going on? I've been using this rom since 6.3 and the only problems I've encountered were just screen of deaths due to kernels. He is a very good dev and he listens to the community well and tried his best to implement new features and fix bugs as soon as possible.

Sent from my 1961 XP-755
[Nexus 4 General] ph37rd:
Yes he is, as I mentioned. My point was before 6.3, you wouldn't have encountered any types of problems. He just told users the other day to revert back to an older version. It's very difficult to please everyone and still keep a tight ship. The ROM is no longer an N5 experience with a few added mods. It's its own beast.

There comes a point in time when you add so much, the new stuff starts causing problems with the old stuff. Becomes increasingly difficult to debug.

Just my 2¢ and off topic. I'm done and out on this topic.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
So I downloaded the AOSP version of the N5EXP and when I go to convert it using the app, I get "invalid file". Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Sent from my 1961 XP-755
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
Would I have to convert each update to a rom to f2fs?

[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
Okay to help me understand better, I'm converting 7.2 of the rom now. There is also a 7.3 delta update.

Would I need to convert the delta update using the same method in order to multi-flash it properly with TWRP?

[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
One time work : Converting the system to F2fs

All time/ Every time : Every time there is a new update or your flashing any new update you need to convert ROM to F2FS compatible ROM with the script.

Hope I am clear now.

P.S : dont update through delta updates as delta updates are extn4 based and your are con F2fs. You might get into trouble.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
Thank you. Sorry if I'm a pain. In his OP, Anderson said that his rom/kernel is F2FS compatible. Wouldn't that also mean his Delta update is also?

Last question. @AK's kernel also has F2FS support. Since I now converted both 7.2 & 7.3 which I plan to flash after I convert my system, is it okay to flash the kernel right after flashing the rom or do I have to do something to the kernel also?

do adb sideload and flash the rom and gapps then wipe cache and dalvik othewise it wont boot. flash ak kernel later after it boots
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
I tried flashing the converted rom using the Nexus Root Toolkit, it sideloaded the rom, I checked wipe everything, now its just stuck on the bootlogo. I don't exactly know how to ADB sideload.

[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
Do one thing go back to extn by flashing the factory image. after it boots tell me.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKnux:
So I should just do the "Flash Stock + Unroot" then root the rom, install TWRP, restore my nandroid, copy everything I need to my internal, then go back to step 1 of the converting filesystem to F2FS?

With Franco u should repack the zimage with his ramdisk too, because of some ramdisk mods he made.

I know how to do it, but unfortunately are months that i'm far from my home because of work, so I can't upload you the utility that I use.

I spent a lot of time on Google to find it and the is only that I found that works with our kernel.
