swap partition and performance after a day

anyone here uses swap partition? if so, what's your performance like after 1 day?

I got a class4 SD card with 96MB Swap. Compcache is set to 32mb with 16 limit. After about 1 day, the phone starts lagging really bad. I am not sure if it's the class4 that's giving me this issue or the larger swap partition giving me this issue. I have since re-create the swap to 32MB and see if that helps but figure maybe someone out in this thread might have gone through this type of "optimization" before.

Went back to three 9's !

I can't put my finger on it exactly, it just seemed like .9999 wasn't as "crisp" as I had .999 running, so I restored my Nandroid backup and will try .999 for awhile.

I too experienced a "lag" after about a day of use, and the battery did seem to drain quicker with the newest update.

I had no complaints at all with .999 so I will see how I feel tomorrow.

Am I alone in this? :confused:
[G1 Android Development] ArmandHammer:
Im running the new 4.1.9999 and everything is running a lot smoother than 4.1.999. The only thing i have noticed so far is the random music. I was browsing the web then it turned on, waited for a couple of minutes then it stopped itself. Other than that great update.

mytouch3g not getting mms

I'm running 4.1.9999 and no mms since I moved from blueberry hero. Any one else having this. I do get text messages. Help?
[G1 Android Development] Grooby97:
I have played around w/ swappiness too but didn't get very far. Noticed base on your signature that you got a class6 instead of class4? also are you using compcache or straight linux swap?
[G1 Android Development] ShatBag1105:
Straight linuxswap. I just moved up to class six (got it at Target :)). I had similar problems, I disabled Compcache and all is well. Idk why compcache bogs down so quickly, theres a few threads floating around about this annoyance.
[G1 Android Development] papisky226:
can someone answer this for me. when you go frm cyan 4.1.9999 to another rom like a hero rom for example and you wipe your ext 3 or the phone and the ext 3 and you want to go back to cyan 4.1.9999 do you have to do the steps all over again like it shows in the beggining of the thread or can i just flash?
[G1 Android Development] papisky226:
and also does spl play a role in how fast or responsive your rom is? im usig haykuros special spl. i have a 4gb class 2 96mb linux-swap ext3 and 4.1.9999 is running fast and smooth on my phone.
[G1 Android Development] ShatBag1105:
Youd have to do it all again. I recommend switchrom.sh. It will backup your phone and ext3.

The haykuro spl it a smaller spl. It gives you 30 more mbs if i remember right.

I just discovered DDMS

I wasn't sure if this would help. This is what I got on 3rd reboot. Flashed straight from 4.1.999 (from 4.1.99, yada).

4.1.999 definitely faster than 4.1.999 for me so far, but a fresh flash always cleans things up. Market is way faster.

Didn't reinstall HTC_IME. It seems to be working well. Better since it's faster.

For the easiest Linux swap, DL Swapper from Market (drunk easy). And why not use an app when it's easier than scripts? I pay people to farm, ship, wash, cook food & do my dishes for me, don't I? But yes, everyone should experience the entire process of food and scripting/programming from seed.;)

When started the 4.1.9999 it came up with google force close, dunno what it said exatly but i know it said google, and it was a force close.

This happened too when I put the 4.0.2 with the hero 1.5 theme on it.

I have a 32 MB swap, swapiness @ 20. No performance degradation at all no matter how long between reboots.

Going by Cyanogens twitter yesterday

maybe that's why my ride with CM has been so smooth?

Tried CompCache for a while when it was introduced, but found it was good for just a few hours, then starting to slow the phone down.

Just upgraded from 4.1.999 to 4.1.9999 without any issues yet. I have a tmobile G1 that was already running 4.1.999. Here's what I did if it helps anybody:

- downloaded 4.1.9999 from cyanogenmod -> copied to sd card root

- rebooted into recovery mode (held down home)

- used cyanogen recovery to update from any zip (didn't wipe first)

- browsed to 4.1.9999; confirmed by pressing home

- took about 2 minutes and was left with "Install from sdcard complete."

- rebooted from recovery (scrolled and picked reboot)

- got the tmobile logo then cyanogen logo

- took a full 5 minutes before i got to tmobile home screen

- looks like everything is back to normal

[G1 Android Development] buzzdroidx:
Mine runs fine its been loaded for a week or so...I use the comp cache system for swap and have a 32 Mb size with swapiness set to 40. specs are in my sig and am running Chimera theme. My phone is fast stable and very dependable. No functions of the hardware fail currently ie bluetooth camera gps etc. There has been the ongoingdebate whether to run linux swap or compcache and for some reason the fail reasons on either of these seems somewhat random and hard to define. One runs on a device and ont he next device it doesnt. I have always beleived sdcards play a major role in the performance of these aspects, and using a class 6 doesnt garuntee a good run. I also recall several months ago that in devlopement of roms both themes and widgets raised hell with many builds along the way still do would be my guess. maybe i strayed off target but i hope it might help in the way your device ends up being configured
[G1 Android Development] CharonIDRONES:
Experiencing random reboots with this version. Was not experiencing it with .999, however have not been experiencing music playing randomly now. Running G1 with DangerSPL, miketaylor00 user.conf (updated userinit.sh for .9999), wiped sdcard completely before install of new version, 8GB class 6, 256MB ext3, 64MB Linux swap (unused currently but never know when might need it). Due to the random nature don't have a log.
[G1 Android Development] andw-yze:

Completely forgot that I had a modified userinit file from ages ago.

Sorry if this has been covered, I have done a search, the issue I have is low memory. When I check memory monitor I have about 15mb left, the phone is still responsive but get warnings when running things like android vnc.

I have always used CM roms and have not had this issue before infact i think back on 4.1.11.1 I used to get 30-40 mb free, using very similar setup with screens and widgets etc.

any ideas anyone?
[G1 Android Development] st0kes:
Yes - I've also noticed scrolling is more jerky than it should be.

Interested to know if there are any tweaks that can be done to smooth things out. Changing settings in 'spare parts' doesn't seem to do it.
[G1 Android Development] thefunkygibbon:
so how come comcache slows stuff down when the point of it was to speed it up?

/Mats
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
How should I know? I'm no virtual memory guy, but to me, making a ram disk to extend your ram (which is basically what compcache is all about) sounds like a bed idea. I know the up side of this is that you compress what you put on the ram disk, thus gaining some (the difference between the compressed and uncompressed data), but compressing and uncompressing eats CPU so in the end, you may end up with a more sluggish system than you started with.

On a system with substantially more CPU than RAM, I guess compcache will work well. Dreams have neither much ram nor cpu. Just theorizing here - but from daily use, I've found swap to be better by far, compared to compcache.

[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
Can some one confirm or deny if Cyanogen roms use linux swap if it is on the card. I am still running 4.1.11.1 and i was under the immpresion that if i have a linux swap partition on my sd that the rom will use it automaticaly just like it automaticaly uses an ext partition for apps2sd. I was curious so i downloaded swapper and without applying a swap and just checking info it shows that i have 24500kb swap and swappiness is set to 60. I have a 32mb linux swap on my card currently, is it being used or do i need to enable it ?
[G1 Android Development] bluecluenj:
I am noticing this as well on my MT3G. I use Task Panel and check frequently to find many apps running in the background, including apps that I have not even used/opened. I am frequently closing all running background apps manually. I never saw this in 4.0.4......compcache issue maybe?
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
I think CM use CompCache by default. Older versions (don't remember up to what point) used swap if you had a swap partition.

Why not use userinit.sh/user.conf (avaliable in another thread in this forum) and make sure you use what you want? Better to explicitly set your phone to work as you want, than to rely on someone else doing it for you :)

Random play issues...

Well....i was just embarassed again. LOL. I'm at work, and even though there are a bunch of people here, it's as quiet as a library. Then all of a sudden, beyonce starts BLASTING from my Mytouch randomly. I was so embarassed/flustered that I just yanked the cover over and did a batter pull to get her to shut up! LOL.

Does anyone have any clues as to why this random music play is happening? Is it third party software related? I don't mind when it happens at home, but this is the 3rd time at work.

One work around i've tried to do is clearing the playlist whenever i'm done listening to music and about to turn off my bluetooth headset. Otherwise, it may randomly start playing the playlist again from where you left off. But i don't always remember to clear the playlist, hence the embarassment.

Any ideas?

Hey, guys and gals I went from 4.1.999 to 4.1.9999 now I don't have the app market nor calandar and gmail. I thought once you had 1.999 any other updates would just be a regular flash.

Did I do something wrong? How can I fix this ? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] SilentTweak:
Ever since I swapped over from 4.1.999 to 4.1.9999 some weird things have been happening. I'll list them out. Been using the ROM since it came out now.

- When connected to bluetooth headset, the phone no longer rings.

- Sliding down notification bar has become more sluggish

- Edge/Gprs icon disappears during calls

- Had a few drop calls

Did all the usual stuff I do in between upgrades, fix_permission, backup/wipe if I have to. Right now all these things are minor issues, but will be great if they get fixed by the stable version :)
[G1 Android Development] mikeybags:
Quick dumb question.

I had 4.1.11 running previously, with the new market, which for some reason would tell me when I had updates but wouldn't let me see which apps needed updating. Anyway, before upgrading to 4.1.9999, I used nandroid to bring me back to 4.0.4 which had the old market, under the assumption that upgrading now would keep the google apps as they were. However, when I upgraded, I'm back to having the new market.

Is there an easy way for me to install the regular market for now until the bugs are worked out of this new one? Just an apk or something I can install? I tried searching but couldn't find any concrete info on this.
[G1 Android Development] luckaddict:
When i go to open gmail and market (google) they open and quickly close. No error on screen.

[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Had a similar problem with first post Google debacle version. Had to redo everything from scratch (wipe, install HTC, install CM) to make it work. My guess is, it's something with the syncservice, as everything that relies on sync just died. No hints to the actual cause from logcat.

[G1 Android Development] luckaddict:
Just to clarify,

1. Perform wipe on phone memory

2. Perform wipe of ext3 partition?

After installing 4.1.9999 some of my apps disappeared but on the android market it's still saying that it's installed and the open and uninstall buttons are greyed out... is there a fix for this? i tried rebooting it several times i even tried restoring from a nandroid back up but it's still the same...
[G1 Android Development] javon27:
Wipe, wipe, wipe

This is exactly what I found I had to do. Thank God for Backup for Root (when it works, otherwise I had to rewipe). I read in this thread that Backup for Root doesn't work nice with 4.1.9999. I was coming from 4.1.999 anyways, but when I flashed 9999, my browser stopped working. So, I tried fix_permissions, but it then my Market stopped working, as well as a bunch of fc's came up.

So all in all, this is what I strongly suggest doing if you're having problems.

For the noobs, let me add to this:

1. Backup your apps and using Astro, or some other file management program. (you can also use Backup for Root to backup your SMS)

2. Reboot into recovery and connect your phone to your pc.

3. use adb to log into shell (command: adb shell)

4. commands:

mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd (this mounts your ext# partition)

cd /system/sd

rm -rf * (this wipes your ext partition)

umount /system/sd​

5. back on your recovery screen, wipe your data

6. flash the htc update

7. reboot back into recovery (press reboot and hold the home button as it reboots)

8. flash CM-update

9. reboot...

10. sign-in to Google and all that stuff​

here's a way to reinstall all your apps quickly:

1. copy your backed-up apps to your pc

2. unmount your sd card

3. make sure you have adb in your paths, or copy adb.exe and the AdbWinApi.dll to your C:\windows\system32\ folder

4. open up a cmd prompt and cd to your backup apps folder

5. type the following command(s):

for %f in ("C:\path\to\your\apps\*.apk") do adb install "%f"​

you can also restore your sms. Be weary of Backup for Root. I suggest using it for sms and maybe your call log. no more than that. i must have flashed 20 times yesterday trying to upgrade to 4.1.9999, because backup for root was restoring some bad settings. If anyone knows of a better way to backup sms using adb or something, please pm me.

myTouch 3G

CM Recovery 1.4

Cyanogenmod 4.1.9999

Stock radio, spl, etc....
[G1 Android Development] javon27:
i had this same problem. are you using Backup for Root by any chance? uncheck the market db option for backup for root and then follow my previous post.
[G1 Android Development] luckaddict:
If some of google apps do not work after upgrading to .9999 then just perform

1. Wipe

2. HTC Update

3. Cyanogen Mod update to 9999

4. Reboot

everything worked fine for me.
[G1 Android Development] mr_deimos:
Yep, had exactly the same thing when coming from CM 4.1.11.1. No matter if i wiped before upgrade or not. A hint of problem's cause was google setup wizard force closing on first boot just like in your case. After that anything related to google services just refused to run or said that you are not signed in. Running the setup wizard manually (using anycut) didn't do the trick eighter: this time it didn't crash but timed out when attempting to verify the login/password (even though net connection was fine - browser was working).

A solution that worked for me was using the single-flash version of CM 4.1.999 (with google apps included) floating around these forums. I didn't even have to wipe - just flashed it on top of nandroid-restored 4.1.11.1.

Same with me, 4.1.9999 and S9 Motorola Headset. Quick cut outs and the back to the music, but I have had this also with 99. Not too bad, I still use it when in the gym.

1. My alarm does not want to go off at times. (i was late to work because of it one day a few weeks ago. Had to buy a regular alarm clock). I have even set it and watched the time go past the alarm time and it will say on the lock screen that the alarm is supposed to go off at the set time. like for Ex. I set if for sunday at 8:30AM one time only alarm. 8:35 rolls around still no alarm but the lock screen still says "alarm Sunday 8:30AM.

2. I seem to only get a notification about my text messages half the time. I will see that the message symbol will pop up in the notifications bar but then it will be gone a few seconds later as if i had pushed the clear button but i had not touched it. I will however still have my blinking led light. (took me forever to figure out why it kept blinking. thought i was going crazy with there being no message in the notifications bar)
[G1 Android Development] javon27:
I need a little bit more info than that. What are you pushing and pulling? Also, do you have an ext partition? You really might need to try wiping that partition. You don't necessarily have to wipe your sd partition. I did, however, wipe mine. I upgraded to 4.1.9999 with a clean sd card and clean ext4 partition. again, refer to my earlier post

[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Yes you can use adb to restore all your apps if you make a backup first. Make a backup of your ext partition first read my signature. When you make a ext backup a folder "sdbackup" will be created on the heart of your C drive so copy it and put it in your "C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r2\tools" so that you wont get a error when you try to restore your apps.
