[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sir.Aurox:
Please can you confirm me if after the Rom Manager patition tool I should have 3,18gb of FAT32 or more?

I've done 0mb for the swap and 512bmb for the EXT

Am I missing some space?

Many thanks

Best regards
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
3.1 + .5 is close to right. Might be a bit low but not by more then 100 MB

Disk drives never have the right capacity because of formatting and companies use 1000 MB = 1 GB when it should be 1024
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sir.Aurox:
Thanks

I'm asking this beacause before I redid the partitions (the sd was already partitioned) with rom manager, I crearly remember that the fat32 was something like 3.66.

Is there any way or program to get the lost space back?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
you havent lost any space, as the previous poster said, with a 4gig sd card, you dont get 4gig of useable space. because of the way its formatted and the block sizes you would probably get about 3.6 - 3.7gb of space on the card.....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sir.Aurox:
Thanks you too mate for the help :)

One last noobish question :D

How can I install apps on the EXT partition ? :o
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
if your using a rom with apps2sd and have an ext partiton on your card, apps will automatically be installed to /system/sd/app/ (the ext partiton) so you dont need to do anything

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BodaciousDrake:
Yeah that thread has everything you need to know. It's important to check and make sure you can enter download mode via the button combo method before you start flashing away.

Also, you really must do a backup of your current rom before you flash a new one. Had you done that, you wouldn't be sitting where you are right now.

Having said that, you will read in the thread that Pirateghost linked that, assuming you have the sdk and have installed the proper drivers, you need to navigate to the \tools directory within the sdk in order to run adb. Once you are in the proper directory, just type:

adb shell

(dollar sign should appear here)

adb reboot download

and it should reboot into download mode.

There after two "modes" your phone can be put into...

Done by having your phone off and then quickly turning it on and holding down JUST the up and down volume controls while having the usb already plugged in (easist I've found is stated above regarding taking the battery out, plug in usb, hold both volume buttons, then while holding them put battery back in)

2. Recovery mode:

Done by holding both up and down volume buttons AND the power button.

I ran into the same issue. I had stock, wanted to try Cm6, had to flash a different boot leaders to get Cm6 to flash properly.

Then I thought id see if I could go back to stock from a nandroid backup I made. Just as you had tried and I found out that I couldn't go back to stock via nandroid because of the same issue I had with going to Cm6 : the boot loader.

I made a nandroid backup up Cm6, booted to Cm6 and ran the 3.29.ruu exe on my desktop and this took me back to complete stock, even unrooted it.

So I rooted again via unrevoked, made a nandroid back up.

For the sake of testing I tried to restore from my nandroid backup of Cm6 and it worked. Then I restored back to stock via my nandroid and it worked.

Basically it came down to loader versions for me and bet that is your issue.

I know I rambled a bit but I think its relevant.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mib1800:
I think many of us are using some kind of task killer. BUT, I find task killer sometimes cause more problem than it solves. And sometimes it doesnt really increase free RAM.

What I did was create a simple app to force Android memory manager to free RAM (by unloading tasks based on its own logic). This way you eliminate 3rd party task killer wrongful termination of tasks such as those active ones required by widgets etc.

This app just basically starts and creates a huge heap (forcing Android to free RAM) and then closes.

(You may still see this task linger in memory after you run it, but it will be unloaded the next time you start other app. You will see your free RAM increased a lot)

====Edit

You May not see free RAM increase immediately after running. You will see RAM increase a lot a bit later after you have started other app (which forces BfreeMem to be unloaded from memory)

Tip: Just put a shortcut on desktop. Click it when your RAM is low (<50-60Mb) and it will do its job. Dont run it when your free RAM is above 90Mb.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] philidor:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] almaalma74:
mib1800 already had got ur all private data, no more diffs. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mib1800:
You have to wait for BfreeMem to be unloaded. (If you are impatient use a Task killer to unload it and you see it frees up lots of RAM.

Basically BFreeMem is a very bloated. When it starts it force Android memory manager to unload other tasks to cater to its RAM requirement. After that if you start other app, Android mem mgr will unload Bfreemem thus freeing huge chunks.

I tweak it to works best if your free RAM is around 50-60Mb. When I run it and when BfreeMem is unloaded later, free RAM goes up to about 100Mb.

btw: this app requires no permission so your data is safe ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] psychedelic'd:
AutoKiller is a much better alternative.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] snapper.fishes:
The concept sounds correct. Not entire sure if it will work in practice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mib1800:
My purpose is to have something that does not circumvent Android memory manager which keeps track of tasks and their stats. It knows better what tasks are best to kill based on their usage/last access/active state/priority. Furthermore, if Android memory manager kill a task due to low memory, it will save the state for that task so that the next time that task is used the saved state is restored.

3rd party task killers sometimes mess this up by killing tasks which are actively use (resulting in those tasks being restarted just after being killed leading to wasted power and more lag) or killing dependent tasks such as those used by widgets without saved state causing widgets to malfunction.

I am using it. It does free up RAM. Is it useful? Depends. If you have lots of active apps (widgets/service etc), those freed RAM is filled up soon as Android restore back those "killed" tasks. Not much gain here. On the other hand, if you have lots of zombie apps lingering in memory then yes. The extra RAM does give a boost to the next app you open
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] psychedelic'd:
AutoKiller is less of a task killer and more of a memory manager. Sort of like what your app is trying to do, but much better. More information: http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller/details

Your concept is good, but having an app that continually increases ram usage will waste battery. Then having to kill that app manually in order to free up ram is tedious. Just my 2 cents.

The new task manager in Touchwiz has a function to manually clear ram any way, which works great.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mib1800:
OK. AutoKiller is changing Linux configuration. Unfortunately, it needs root.

I have used the TouchWiz TaskMgr clean Ram at safe level - it still messed up my widgets (Beautiful widgets, weather & toggle)

Bfreemem app does not continually run or increase RAM usage. You just run it when the free RAM is low (or close to threshold). At this low RAM level it just knocks other tasks out of RAM. btw: You should NOT run it when you have huge amount of free RAM. You should run it when RAM is low like <50Mb.

You dont really have to kill Bfreemem task manually since it will be quickly unloaded by the Android memory manager when RAM is required since its state is finished.

JUst put a shortcut on the desktop and click it when you feel RAM level is low and it will do its job.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Soniboy84:
Can it be used with autokiller?

It could be also automated to check if memory is low, and automatically kill applications. Battery drain would be present in that case tho..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] EarlZ:
Never has the default task killer from samsung messed up my widgets including Beautiful weather, I tried using task killer and never saw the benefits of it since andriod automatically keeps 40MB of free ram...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mib1800:
When I try the option Level 1 - Clear Memory (in Samsung task killer), my beautiful widget clock stop working.

Personally, I dont use task killer. Not sure whether Autokiller kills tasks physically or just adjust some running config. Just have a feeling task killers (those that kill tasks physically) cause RAM leak. For example when my phone reboot, I can see at least 12 tasks (in Advanced Task Killer) and free RAM is about 95Mb. If I physically kill those tasks, my RAM may temporarily goes up to 130Mb but sometime later free RAM drops to 50-60Mb and there were no more tasks to kill.

When I use Bfreemem, my free RAM fluctuates betw. 60-100 Mb and I can still see all/most of those tasks that were there just after boot-up.

If you have one of those scheduler/timer app, you can just use those to schedule Bfreemem to run regularly. (I can build another timer app to schedule)

A friend gave me a hand getting DamageControl 3.5 on my EVO and I love it. I've been told that 3.6 has some new features so I'm going to upgrade to 3.6. I love all the info that's on this forum, but I've got a couple noob-ish questions, I'm afraid:

Somebody mentioned flashing radios/firmwares, where can I find those? Do I really need them?

Evidently in 3.6 there's new battery-saving features. Should I turn off SetCPU now? Are the two features mutually exclusive?

I like the idea of JuiceDefender, but how does the data-limiting feature work? If I launch the email app, will it turn on data or do I have to wait? Will I still get text messages if data is off?

I tried to png-optimize the froyo 2.2 rom i've been developing and got a bootloop issue.

adb logcat of boot > http://pastebin.com/MNBbUxPS

developers can you please take a look at this and tell me if you see whats wrong?

Thanks in advance
[Droid Eris Android Development] bftb0:
Nothing in that log jumps out at me, but I'm not an expert either.

I would think that if it was looping, you would see:

- more than 180 lines in the logcat

- giant blocks of logcat messages that repeat (if the fault occurs "late" in the boot process)

I suppose all sorts of things could go wrong, but generally an Android "boot" loop does not affect the kernel, just the entire Android Application sub-system (the Linux "kernel" is fine - it is the Android layer which is looping.)

If that is the case, an "adb shell" will not terminate during the looping behavior - and a logcat should continue to spew logging messages.

If you collect a lot of logcat data, finding the end of the repeating pattern of log messages might provide you with some insight as to where the nexus of the problem is.

If that doesn't work - divide and conquer using binary division (perform png-optimization on only "half" the ROM, and recurse that halving until you isolate the trouble).

bftb0
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
When I've had these kind of boot loops, there's usually been a Java exception of some sort that repeats (hence the loop). You can use ddms and get the warnings and errors only. It makes it easier to find the actual error that is triggered when the problem occurs.
