Thanks. I've successfully got this up and running. Scored 1500 on Quandrant. However, I have a new question.

By doing this, do I lose the ability to mount the external SD card to transfer files on my computer? After apply this my computer only recognizes the internal SD card now when I mount via USB. :confused:

Also, I appear to have lost my data connection. I've hard reset a few times, but I no longer have a 3G connection. I can still place calls, but no data.
[Vibrant Android Development] sl8125:
Alright thanks op for clear things up. I got the fix on. My quad bench went up to 1500. One thing i forgot to do. I forgot the modaco fix i applied. Everything seemed to work. Should i revert to original.

I just been in this thing for one hour. How is the real world sped like in this thing?
[Vibrant Android Development] davbran:
no, you need to assign a drive letter to your external SD.

Right click My Computer, then select manage. In the new window open Disk Management, then find your card and assign it a drive letter.
[Vibrant Android Development] davbran:
Thanks, for the time being I will have to partition with a swap in place as I have no other alternative. I see a card reader in my very near future.
[Vibrant Android Development] ttabbal:
The standard partition layout is p1=fat, p2=ext, p3=swap (optional). That's what the script expects, though it doesn't use swap.
[Vibrant Android Development] davbran:
I'm going to try to flash again, I'm still getting high 800s, I know I can get at least 1400
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
Ok, thanks. Now I just need to figure out how to get my data back.
[Vibrant Android Development] davbran:
Still getting high 800s no love at all
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
me too idk what im doing wrong...
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

My 2nd partition is 1 gig ext2.

The 800 score sounds like it did not get flashed.

Don't use clockwork, it doesn't work.

Rename the a2sd.zip to update.zip and reboot into samsung recovery and

flash.

It should work now.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
aight i will give that a shot

EDIT: well i flashed it through the samsung recovery and it worked scored a 1900 in quadrant. so now that i did this what kind of negative side effects am i looking at?
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

Your phone will explode in 60 seconds. :D

I haven't noticed any side effects.

Other than extreme speed in phone response and using apps.

No fc's but I started with a clean ext2 partition also.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
lol well aight cool i heard about the fcs but decided to try anyway
[Vibrant Android Development] anomalous3:
So far I haven't had any, but ext filesystems are prone to corruption; if you're feeling particularly 1337 you can kang e2fsck from CM5.0.8 and put it in /system/bin, as well as grabbing

libext2_blkid.so

libext2_com_err.so

libext2_e2p.so

libext2_profile.so

libext2_uuid.so

libext2fs.so

and putting them in your /system/lib folder.

Then reboot into recovery, ADB shell into the phone, and:

$su
#mount /system
#e2fsck -fcpDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2

Cleans your ext partitions nicely.
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
well i started of with a completely fresh partitioned sd card so would i wouldnt need to wipe the ext right?
[Vibrant Android Development] tissimo:
A side effect is that you can't swap memory cards. I haven't had any force closes with mine so far.

I've also never had a ext become corrupt in 7 months messing with my G1, so don't think its that common. I also always used an ext 2 partition also.

Sent from my SGS Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
fsck should be included with any scripting that uses an EXT fs to put data on especially EXT2 or your going to have issue sooner or later. This was established long ago with G1 ROMS.

And trust me with EXT2 corruption was an issue. You might not have had it happen to you but it happens especially since there is no journaling in EXT2 and there is not clean dismount of the EXT partition on shutdown in stock ROMS.
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
yeah i know the memory card part but i dont plan on removing it cause its a 16gb class 6 so theres no need for that, and thats good that they dont happen often cause if it did im sure you would have to wipe the phone to get it running right.
[Vibrant Android Development] kopykatkiller:
It worked fine for me......odd.
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
it didnt work right for me idk why it said it installed but i never noticed a change but when i did it through factory recovery it worked fine
[Vibrant Android Development] junkdruggler:
Just got a 1500... Sent the picture to my nexus buddy... Thanks guys works great...
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

It would be nice to have a modded optimized version of this script with these features.

Maybe someone will make a revision.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] davbran:
Another flash another wipe another 877
[Vibrant Android Development] aenima4six2:
I am loving the simplicity of this (the install that is). Great work.

I'm only pulling an 1100 on quad.. Any ideas as to how to track down why?

My guess is a worn out Micro SD, any way to verify?

I'm on EXT3 by the way. I know Ext2 would disable journaling and prolong card life, but would EXT 4 be faster ?
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
you flash through sams recovery? maybe you need to redownload
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
ok i get a not enough space error when trying to download anything from the market... anyone know a fix?
[Vibrant Android Development] davbran:
Will probably start from scratch again but this is getting old
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
EXT2 will give you higher scores in the Quadrant I/O test than EXT3. The current kernel (stock) doesn't support EXT4.
[Vibrant Android Development] aenima4six2:
Think i'm going to pick up a class 10 MicroSD and see how she runs :)

http://www.amazon.com/Kingmax-Micro...2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1280718590&sr=8-2
[Vibrant Android Development] aenima4six2:
Thanks, however this is at the cost of data corruption without a safe dismount from EXT2 right?
[Vibrant Android Development] bestwebs:
HI,

Did you apply any other mods before this one?:)

I just downloaded 2 apps with no out of space errors.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Yes. And Benchmarks arent everything I cant tell the diff between using EXT2/EXT3 in real world performance...its only Quadrant that shows the MASSIVE increase. The phone isn't much faster than the day I bought it. yet... :)
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
you know why i wouldnt be able to install any apps after i did this? its saying i have no room left and i partitioned my card 3 gb ext 2 and the other 13 gb fat 32
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
nope havent changed a thing just this one mod and thats it
[Vibrant Android Development] anomalous3:
If you are having any trouble:

1. INSTALL BUSYBOX from the market. I know the root update has it, but the newest version is necessary to make this work.

2. Only flash the userinit enabler (which should work from clockwork).

3. Paste this into userinit.sh in the /data/local directory, or make a userinit.sh and put it there. (credit to ttabbal for the script).

busybox mount -o remount,rw -t rootfs /
mkdir /sd-ext;
busybox chown 1000:1000 /sd-ext;
busybox chmod 771 /sd-ext;
busybox mount -o remount,ro -t rootfs /

busybox mount -o noatime,nodiratime -t auto /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /sd-ext

if [ "$?" = 0 ];
then
if [ ! -d /sd-ext/data ]
then
mkdir /sd-ext/data;
busybox chown 1000:1000 /sd-ext/data;
busybox chmod 771 /sd-ext/data;

busybox cp -rp /data/data/* /sd-ext/data;
busybox mv /data/data /data/olddata;

mkdir /data/data;
busybox chown 1000:1000 /data/data;
busybox chmod 771 /data/data;
fi;

busybox mount -o bind /sd-ext/data /data/data;

if [ "$?" != 0 ];
then
rm -r /data/data;
mv /data/olddata /data/data;
fi;

### Dalvik cache...

if [ ! -d /sd-ext/dalvik-cache ]
then
mkdir /sd-ext/dalvik-cache;
busybox chown 1000:1000 /sd-ext/dalvik-cache;
busybox chmod 771 /sd-ext/dalvik-cache;

busybox cp -rp /data/dalvik-cache/* /sd-ext/dalvik-cache;
busybox mv /data/dalvik-cache /data/old-dalvik-cache;

mkdir /data/dalvik-cache;
busybox chown 1000:1000 /data/dalvik-cache;
busybox chmod 771 /data/dalvik-cache;
fi;

busybox mount -o bind /sd-ext/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache;

HI,

I remember reading somewhere that if the ext2 partition is too big it can't be accessed.

Try to remake it in 1 gig size.

Just a guess on this.

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
How do you properly/improperly dismount an EXT2 partition? This is all new to me and I'd rather not corrupt my data by accident.
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
oh well thats freakin great... well it seems to be working but says theres no space so idk maybe i need to reformat...
[Vibrant Android Development] davbran:
You need to have no more than 2gb for the ext ... it causes problems. I don't know the specifics, just that poeple have troubles past 2gb
[Vibrant Android Development] skater4690:
well thats great now im gonna have to wipe my whole phone...
[Vibrant Android Development] Maverick777:
Looks like I'm encountering some FC's on certain programs. :(

Launcher Pro had continuous FC's. Luckily I had powerstrip installed and had a way to access the market to uninstall it. I reinstalled and it stopped FCing.

Then App Organizer and Agenda Widget begain FCing as well.

Guess I'm going to reflash stock for now. I've spent way too much time trying to get this working today. :(
[Vibrant Android Development] aenima4six2:
I think your EXT2 is too big.. Also, use EXT3...

backup your current settings in Nandroid and Titanium backup.

Shut off your phone and pull your SD-Card.

Boot Gparted or Paragon and repartition your SDCard (Try 512mb for your EXT3 partition and the rest for you fat32, make both primary and not logical)

MAKE SURE FAT32 IS THE FIRST PARTITION ON THE DISK

Wipe and fully reset

Apply root (if not coming from a rooted nandroid)

Download busybox from market and update to latest version

Apply the Apps2SD hack

Install your apps and see if your problem still exists

Report back :)

3 fat

if I remember correctly.

That's how I had to partition mine as well

[EVO 4G General] trixr750:
Hey guys. I know there are numerous threads about setcpu but there isn't one specifically for different settings people are running on their phone.

This is to help others have an idea of how to prolong their battery daily...

Here is mine..

Rom: cm6 froyo

Kernel: cm6 snap 3

Launcher: adw

Setcpu...

1. Charging/full - 998/245

2. Screen off - 245/245

3. Battery < 70% - 883/245

4. Battery < 50% - 768/245

5. Battery < 25% - 537/245

6. Temp > 50° - 576/245

1. Ondemand

2-5. Powersave

6. Conservative

I'm down to 40% after 12 hours of usage... Texting, browsing, emails, and an hour of slingbox!

Lets see what others are using and their settings.
[EVO 4G General] spiicytuna:
Rom: cm6 froyo

Battery < 40%.. 768/245 powersave

Battery < 50%.. 998/245 ondemand

Screen Off ....... 348/128 powersave

Charging ......... 768/245 ondemand

I get about 18-24 hours per charge. I am overclocked to 1.15. I actually use the phone and would consider myself a moderate user.
[EVO 4G General] rjmjr69:
Where is powersave?
[EVO 4G General] trixr750:
do you overclock it under the charging profile? because you have that listed at 769max.

do you find the min 128 for your screen off profile to lag trying to turn the screen back on?
[EVO 4G General] hardcor4e:
I have no powersave. Only userspace,ondemand,performance options.

_________

SetCPU:

Min: 1.228Ghz

Max: 1.344Ghz

Scaling: ondemand

Sampling Rate: 40000

Up Threshold: 40%

Ignore Nice Load: 0

Powersave Bias: 0

_________

I've played around a lot and found this to be the most stable for my EVO.

~Jasecloud4
[EVO 4G General] trixr750:
What's the idea for changing sampling rate and threshold? I would like to know if that helps with the performance and battery life.
[EVO 4G General] trixr750:
And jase. How long does your phone battery last?
[EVO 4G General] jasecloud4:
Sampling Rate is akin to reaction time to change, judged in microseconds. Up threshold is the load point at which the processor increases it's speed from min to max. (I know, I know, it's a lot more technical but for simplicity's sake).

Setting sampling and up threshold low means that at the slightest increase in load, the processor will try to increase its speed. This is helpful with performance, but may impact battery life as the chance of you running at higher speed is greater.

________

Battery life at 1.344Ghz isn't that bad, as 1.267, 1.305, and 1.344 all run at the max of 1350mv (which so far is the max that the Snapdragon can handle). So, at my current settings (with my standard battery), I get probably 3.5 hours of non-stop use, and maybe 24 hours of standby if I'm lucky. But...I've got some pretty sweet Quadrant and Neocore scores.

What good is underclocking at power levels that are greater than 15%? I like to use my phone as a SMARTPHONE as long as I can... 1115 mhz peak for ALL except screen off and under 15%.... when its plugged in (either charging or charged) I bump the minimum speed up to 512 or 768... Everything is real smooth!

I'm using the EViO Series Rom. I have been unplugged since 330am. I'm going on 10 hours of being unplugged and still I got 61% battery left and according to my "Battery Left Widget" that breaks down to about 10hrs and 46 minutes left. which totals to be somewhere between 19-21 hours of battery total since i unplugged my phone at 330am.

My SetCpu settings are:

i just loaded this up because it seemed that my Fresh ROM was a battery killer, not sure that it was the ROM, but whatever the combination i had going, i could only get about 5 hours per charge. What kernel are you using and what are you usage amount and battery life for these settings?
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
I just installed the rom and that was it...plus my apps from titanium backup. I think the rom have the Netarchy Kernalalready built into it. Here is the link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=736810

I am somewhat a heavy user...I stream Pandora, check the net almost constantly, check emails, text messaging a lot, check FB & Twitter and a call every now and then.

Just to give you an idea..from the last time I posted which was at 1220...my battery is now at 52% and the "battery Widget" says I have 9hrs and 44mins left of battery usage.
[EVO 4G General] spiicytuna:
I also like to USE my phone, hence wanting my battery to last as long as possible. I use 1.15 from 50% - 100% then I switch back to the stock speeds to start to conserve power. I found for me I am usually flashing something (also meaning indirectly charging) or fooling around before I even get to 50%. So 90% of the time I am always at 1.15. That being said the times my battery has gotten < 30% and I was at 768. I didn't notice as large of a difference as you'd think unless I was playing a 3D game. *shrug* it's all personal preference. I have a full SMARTPHONE experience and utilize my phone to its fullest.....
[EVO 4G General] SilverZero:
With Fresh 1.0.1 and netarchy 3.7.3c, in order of priority:

Screen off: 245/245

Charging/Full: 768/1152

Battery < 25%: 245/768

Battery < 100%: 576/998

Just set those, we'll see how they work. I read it was a bad idea to set mins lower than 245, so I'm playing it safe there. I never really noticed problems with having 245 mins across the board, but I'm giving it a bump for normal < 100% usage. My screen is off most of the time anyway.
[EVO 4G General] trixr750:
I use my phone constantly as well so I'm trying to find a good medium for battery and performance. I'm gonna try to scale mine to 1.1 until the 75% mark and see how that goes.

Running a custom rom plus a custom kernel does help for me so far.

[EVO 4G General] SilverZero:
I've seen this mentioned in a couple of random posts, but just as a word of warning to any owners of rooted EVOs:

Flashing the forthcoming 2.2/Froyo OTA from Sprint will certainly UN-ROOT your phone! It's anybody's guess how long it will be before one of the devs here finds a new root method, and I have every confidence that it will be a short time before it's done. Nevertheless, remember what happened to the iPhone with 3.1.3. Lots of users lost their jailbreak/unlock PERMANENTLY. I think the standard word of warning to root users still applies: DO NOT flash an un-rooted ROM unless you don't want root access anymore. Wait for either a rooting method or a rooted stock ROM to be released.

I hope this saves a few headaches in the community. :)
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
Nice try but it wont people will still take the OTA and come here sobbing tears !
[EVO 4G General] Mad06STi:
^ my thoughts from the "Froyo Tomorrow?" thread.

Either way I'm sure you'll get root eventually. But it breaks down into two scenarios:

1) Wait on OTA 2.2 for an unknown time (probably timescale of days) and get a 2.2+root rom.

2) Get OTA 2.2 as soon as it drops, probably enjoy it, but live without root for an unknown (possibly long) time.
[EVO 4G General] SilverZero:
Exactly. But I guess you said it more concisely. :)
[EVO 4G General] c0t0d0s2:
Do the OTA updates replace a recovery image? I've been on tmo until now and never accepted an OTA update from them, so I honestly don't know.

If they dont, I'd assume it'd be pretty safe, or pretty quick to get root/su back, wouldnt it?
[EVO 4G General] sturmen:
I just hope they update the PRI so that you can flash it over a full-rooted phone and Sprint will never know the difference.
[EVO 4G General] Mad06STi:
OTA 1.47 replaced just about everything, including hboot and recovery.
[EVO 4G General] c0t0d0s2:
It replaced HBOOT?

Jeez, ok, I'm glad I asked.
[EVO 4G General] nolageek:
No we didn't, the JB for 3.1.3 was released when iOS4 came out. They just didn't want to risk Apple closing up the hole with 4. (Nitpicking, I know.. but thought I'd mention that.)
[EVO 4G General] Mad06STi:
Actually I may be wrong. The original OTA was pretty small, I'm basing my opinion on a PC36IMG

file I have here that has stock hboot and recovery images. Who knows where I actually got it from, though.
[EVO 4G General] edtate:
Well, from what I've gathered, it generally takes less time to see a fully rooted stock rom than an actual process to root that said rom altogether. If people could just wait for the rooted rom they'd save themselves much heartache.

But of course, tomorrow we'll see millions of threads about how they lost their root and how they didn't know this would happen and how unrevoked doesn't work for them and blah blah blah. Oh well, sucks for them.

Btw- What does apple, the iPhone, and ios4 have to do with froyo and the evo? There are absolutely no connections between them.
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
It is going to be hard to resist the temptation of updating but I'll heed your advice and hold on DC 323 until a rooted ROM is made available.

Posted this in another thread, posting it here as well just in case.

So, i'm not very good with all this rooting crap, but just so i could get a few apps working(wireless tether), i used unrevoked 3, and as far as i know, you can't really use any of the good roms with it. Anyways, i could care less about rom's, i just want to be able to use apps like wireless tether(oh well if the update breaks it), or shootme(i take a lot of screenshots :X), how does this affect me? I mean, what do i do if i update and can't root again, but at the same time can't use a 2.2 rom because i have the lazy mans root method?

[EVO 4G General] SteelH:
Epic truth!
[EVO 4G General] jd9900:
I would almost guarantee a wipe from the ota update. Any ota upgrade I've recalled doing requires one and that includes Droid and winmo devices on multiple hardware platforms. That is, any ota that required an OS upgrade at least.
[EVO 4G General] mike.r.olson:
So I suppose the question needs to be asked:

Sprint and HTC are going to allow people to manually initiate the OTA update with the update starting to get pushed notifications on the 3rd... Any thought on when our amazing devs get the RUU/img to work with?

I'll bet it's going to be at least an extra week before Sprint releases the RUU.
