Thanks For making CM12

Hi just wanted to thank you for making cm12 possible on y550 and I'm super looking forward to use after you made it . can I ask is the cm12 move apps to SD becuz now I'm using cm11 and I can't move apps to SD . thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coxtor:
You can use the link2sd app on the playstore to free up your internal memory . partition your sdcard the following way, the order is important!

1. Fat32 (size you want for images and music etc.)

2. Ext4 (size I would suggest 2 GB or more , depending how many large games you are planing to install )

3. Cm 11 comes with a 600 MB swap configured as third partition you should create a 600 MB swap Linux partition to have "bonus" ram.

Also I recommend using a class 10 sdcard for this.

If all is done correctly link2sd will ask to initialize the partition after you launch the app.

To check if swap is used use the "free" command in terminal emulator.

Hope I could help.

These accounts might keep a record of user activity, so every other user that follows can maybe see your IMEI in the account history.

Also, once these accounts get flagged from unusual login activity, they would probably be closed anyway.

For security it is better to make yourself a new account, it only takes a minute.

Use the CHINESE version of Huawei web site to get your bootloader unlock code. Just create a fake registration. You don't need to give a real email address.

I posted instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=62630358&highlight=chinese#post62630358

In short, go to: http://emui.huawei.com/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail

tick the box at the bottom, click the button, you go to a login page. Click on the orange colour characters at the bottom to register a new account. On the next page, click the tab to choose email registration. Enter whatever details you like, the email address doesn't need verification. You need to create a password for the account (include caps, 123, and #$% type characters, otherwise it won't accept).

Then you can click through to the unlock page. See my earlier instructions for more into.

Note that the unlock page says invalid sometimes product number or somesuch. You need to keep trying, eventually the unlock code appears.

y550 problems

Hello guys...

I have a huawei Y550. I made root (some time ago), was working perfect.

Yesterday, I made a factory reset (trought the kikat and trought the boot)

and now isn't working good.

I have a problem with the buttons. The home button doesnt work (dont do anything) and the "menu button" doesnt show the app manager (for close the active apps)

If i restart the phone in the recovery mode say:

CWM-Based Recover V6.0.5.1

Only for C8817D

Build Time 2014-10-03

Other information:

Huawei Y550-L01

Android 4.4.4

EMUI 2.3

Baseband: 11060009

If i enter in key test (recovery mode) and a press the keys in order:

158 172 139

So i gues is a software problem no a hardware one.

Any idea?

Reclaiming NAND space, (I): Resize-minimize (delete?) /log

On my (I suppose anyone's) Y550 I have a /log vfat partition of size 64MB. On the NAND! This is clearly a waste.

(1) Only ca. 1.8MB is used.

(2) Log files can happily live on the SDcard. The resultant speed loss is negligible when compared with the gain of 64MB extra NAND space.

For debugging, first grab the Logcat and read it. There you get almost all information on what is missing or what needs to be fixed. Then you can try your luck with maybe replacing some libs to suit our devices hardware. I think there are some tutorials out there but I think the best way to do this is 'Learning by doing'.

Questions Re Optimal Re-Partitioning of HW-Y550

A 700MB system/2.2GB data split makes a lot more sense that HW-Y550's original 1.2Gb system/1.7 GB data split. But is it also THE optimal split?

What is the minimum optimal size of /system? Specifically, which apps are the minimum optimal system apps to always install on the HW-Y550?

Which apps, even though habitually included in ROMs, have nothing to do in /system/app? What is the logic of having music players, image galleries, e-mail clients, and a calculator in /system/app? If Android were Linux, they would all be in /usr. If one goes to the pain of resizing /system, shouldn't he before move all user apps to /data/app?

Is it a good idea to extract all odex from all apk and move them to /cache? And if yes, does /cache at its present size offer enough storage space?

What is the optimal size & location of the swapfile? All of HB72K's custom ROMs implement swap files of different sizes and locations. (HB72K is using the Turbo Boost script, which enables the creation of up to three swap files among /system, /data and /cache: only one per partition, but their space is combined, and they act in parallel and thus are faster).

Obviously, if it makes sense to use /cache exclusively for odex files, it is a bad idea to create a swap file in /cache. Yet all of HB72K's ROMs do exactly that: create a 120 or 140 MB swap file in /cache.

What is the point of having an 64MB partion /log wasting fast storage in NAND, when log files can happily sit in the SDcard? Shouldn't /log be deleted, and its 64MB relocated to either /system or /data or /cache, there to be used toward adding to a swap file?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hecaex:
Good thoughts. I played around with the partition of my phone. But unfortunately I bricked it. Now I'm unable to recover the initial partition layout. And I can't get it booted unless I bring my phone to some service centre to get it repaired. This will delay the development of CM13 quite a bit. But don't worry I'm keen to release a first release of it asap as it's highly awaited.

If hecaex cannot do it, nobody cann.
