So, to refresh my memory.

You had a ROM and kernel installed and running the way you like.

You made a back up using PhilZ. You formatted cache, system and /data-/data/media.

Then you custom restored just the cache, system and /data-/data/media.

You ran the tester to confirm f2fs formats.

Ran the kernel fixer and then rebooted.

Is that how you did it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nirogu325:
Correct. I think the missing piece is a F2FS kernel for TW.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
The fixer is supposed to do it. Please post your fstab.qcom file.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nirogu325:
Edit: If you are referring to the kernel fixer, I'm using your latest version posted on the 10th of this month. MD5 checked as correct. I will follow your latest suggestions closely tomorrow as soon as I get the chance to do so. Count on it and a follow-up post from me. Never mind due to below post.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thirdzcee:
FYI For those who use a touchwiz ROM using ktoonz kernel and want to convert to f2fs

As you can see from my screenshot, the fact that f2fs folder doesn't exist in fs in his touchwiz source tree means the kernel does not have support for f2fs, and before someone counters with that's what the kernel fixer zip is for , its not, the kernel fixer only tells the kernel to mount the said partitions as f2fs instead of ext4, in the end the kernel needs to be compiled with f2fs drivers for it to work... Haven't checked on the ibudler kernel though
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
Thanks for the information. I was not looking deep enough. That's what I get for being in a rush to respond.

I'll add a clarification to the first post that this only fixes the fstab and if the kernel does not have f2fs support it will not work. I'll also see if there is a way to inject f2fs support.

Cannot just add the folder and some easy tweaks to get f2fs support. Looks like I need to change this to fstab fixer instead of kernel fixer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nirogu325:
Just as I suspected. Glad someone more knowledgeable than I on kernels investigated. Thanks. So we need a F2FS kernel for TW after all.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] frantisek.nesveda:
Thanks for mentioning me, I'm glad my tool is spreading to other devices.

I just updated agnostic-kernel with fixes to some issues and made it easier to change to work with other devices. It also contains a more elegant way to support all different partition layouts, so you don't have to have 8 different fstab files. If you wish, you can check out the changes in the agnostic-kernel thread.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
Thanks [MENTION=4431376]frantisek.nesveda[/MENTION] again. I was able to repeat your work and now have a single fstab file that gets editted for the format type of system, cache and data.

Also, I did add the feature of pulling the existing boot image and modifying its fstab instead of using one packed in the zip. This way it should work with any kernel that has the f2fs drivers in it.

So guys and gals, there is an update in the host.

I also updated the tester zip to restore mounts to the same condition prior to running the zip based on code in [MENTION=4431376]frantisek.nesveda[/MENTION]'s work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
It appears to only work with the PhilZ recovery I built. If someone finds another please let us know.

Also, it does not work on TouchWiz ROMs. If someone finds one that it does work on please let us know.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] galahadUSA:
Thanks RoryB! I was able to to do all partitions with no issues on my d2tmo t999. I was bored and followed the heard, thanks again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
So I was playing with 5.0 and I decided to do a factory reset through the phone settings... DO NOT DO THIS

I am stuck in a loop in recovery. Pulling the battery did not help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvsukids:
Can I use the older convert 2ext to get back or is there some way using the new fstab file?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
Use PhilZ to format back to ext4. Then use custom restore to get your data and/or system restored. Then use latest fixer to change the fstab. It changes the fstab to match whatever format you have those three partitions (cache, data, system)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] frap129:
Am I missing something? in the op all I see about reformatting is "Format in f2fs". How exactly would i accomplish this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mp3deviant721:
You have to use the Philz compiled by OP and if the kernel you are using doesn't have a fixed fstab, you need to use his kernel fixer to fix it... That's what I gathered from this thread.

GS³: CarbonROM + leanKernel edition™

Put your Kitsune up!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] frap129:
Thats where I get confused. Theres no option to reformat in f2fs in Philz that i can see.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mp3deviant721:
I can't remember exactly where but you have to toggle it in advanced options I think... Or something like that.

GS³: CarbonROM + leanKernel edition™

Put your Kitsune up!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
It is in "wipe and format options", then "custom format options" then "toggle f2fs <-> ext4 migration"

Remember, to format data you pick /sdcard. Also, this will remove everything on your internal card.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrrocketdog:
i mean who really IS [MENTION=1190747]RoryB[/MENTION] ?

the man the myth the wizard ?

whose to say. but thank god for his f2fs work.:sly::thumbup:

"all I can really do, is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
What's next

I am working on modifications to the updater script and some tools that include this fixer function.

It will make flashing a ROM with either format for system, cache or data without having to modify anything in it manually.

It will check what format you are using and format system accordingly. After it is done it will fix the fstab for all your partitions.

I have been trying it for CM12 as well, but have run into a snag since it does not format the partition, but copies an already formatted image onto the partition.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mp3deviant721:
So kinda like flash the tool before flashing your ROM and kernel and it'll do the f2fs fixes for you?

GS³: CarbonROM + leanKernel Edition™

Put your Kitsune up!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
More like the ROM updater script checks your format to be sure it formats the same way. Then, after the ROM is flashed it fixes the fstab.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fenixus:
Looks like Kernel Fixer is not needed on beta Lollipop 5.0 builds for S3, stock CM12 kernel properly runs on f2fs data-cache partitions. Also it shouldn't be needed on latest kitkat Lean Kernel 9.17 for d2lte, at least I didn't need it on d2tmo (T999).

Anyways, my question is where do you people download the PhilZ 6.58.9 from? Cannot find any download links in OP and official Philz repo mentions only 6.48.4 as latest .... I am still running PhilZ 6.57.5 here that I took from some S3 verizon thread ...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AddictedToB3er:
You might be able to get it through flashify.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
It is in the download folder linked on the second post. Go there and you can download just the parts you want.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fenixus:
Good idea, but upon checking i found only 6.15 over there.

Thanks! Can't believe I missed it ...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvsukids:
Is it important to change all file systems or if I leave system in ext4 I'll miss our in smoothness
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fenixus:
convert only data and cache partitions to F2FS as those are used frequently for writing temp files, system partition is read only access anyways so you can leave it as ext4 (no difference really).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kwmike:
Install Question

Thanks to the dev for all the work on this!

Is this sequence workable?

a. format data and data/media to f2fs with philz. leave sys as is ie ext4

b. run test fomat

c.. install lollipop 5.02 rom/kernel zip from extsd card

d. install lp gapps zip from extsdcard

e. if desired install alt lp 5.02 kernel zip from extsdcard.

f. run f2fs kernel fixer.

g. reboot system

I am trying to avoid extsdcard backup as data + data/media is greater than my current extsd card size.

Any advice appreciated!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RoryB:
You will need to look at the updater script in the zip file of your ROM. I think 5.0.x ones that I have looked at also format /data as ext4.

If it does not then I think your plan might work.

If it does you could change it to format to f2fs instead. Otherwise you need to back up /data from this ROM before you change to f2fs.

Post to let others know how it goes for you.

I have been away from this a while. I sort of quit since 5.0.x ROMs could not be changed to not have /system already be ext4.

Bugs?

Paste the name of the file you flashed. No exceptions.

"Latest" is the best way to get me to ignore you. It tells me nothing. Neither does just the date, combined with the the word "NIGHTLY". I sometimes make 3 builds lb an hour if I'm testing something.

Not trying to be difficult. Just want to have the same info about your build as you do.
[One (M8) Android Development] krazie1:
Is the battery CM battery or the themeable battery some devs use?

If you mean the 3 minit battery mod or whatever, nah this is the implementation like BeanStalk has.
[One (M8) Android Development] krazie1:
Ok so the battery changes color according to the theme? Not like CM11 where the battery stays white on themes?

Correct, certain themes will change the battery colors when applied.

How is the speaker phone volume on this ROM? I've run beanstalk for a long time and loved it, the low volume on the speakerphone was probably my only "complaint".

I'm downloading now. Can't wait to flash!

Thanks for the ROM!!

The options on this rom are another level. The messagaing app options I've never seen before. The themeing system seems better too.

But I've found one fault. In settings , sound when I select vibration intensity it FC settings. Any ideas.i like having the option to turn it down, other than that awesome work
