All aosp roms are missing it when ported for the d2. It's like no one realized it was missing or wasn't that important. It is though. I see the 2 appear out for it, but it was a pushing point illness froyo. Anyone know how to activate it?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kangi26:
I talked to Hans regarding a thread specific to the Axura ROM. We were getting some great ideas from people, and needed a place to put it all together, without cluttering up the ROM thread. So I got his blessing. Out of respect you know :)

If you have any yourself and are interested in displaying them here; go for it! There have been some great things being tossed around. I use the standard 960x800(Or very close to it). Personally I use Flikie to display my wallpapers, any new ones I download/create, I just go to my SD(Internal)/Flikie and copy them in the Wallpapers folder.

Most of the ones I have are images I have acquired from other locations, Flikie, Zedge, Deviant Art, etc. I just do my own bit of modifications to fit my needs. If I can locate the original creator, I will most definitely credit them. Please do the same.

Here are 2 bootanimations I did, Dr. Bogger was nice enough to convert them from the animated GIF's to the .zip file.

Using Root explorer, go to, System/Media/bootanimation.zip, and make a backup of this file. Copy the boot animation of your choice to your device and rename it bootanimation. Copy/Paste it to System/Media and select "Yes" to overwrite.

Reboot :)

Great job by dlfuse06 for making the blackhands into a Live Wallpaper. It's freakin' awesome! Just copy it to your device, and install it just like any other apk. I've renamed it to "BlackHandsLive"

[Captivate Themes and Apps] dontshakepandas:
This isn't a wallpaper or boot animation, but it seemed like an appropriate place to post it. I've been making some slight alterations to the stock axura theme and thought some one else might want to use it. It mostly just changes the button presses from the ugly stock blue to orange. Just about everything in the system is orange to match (I like consistency).

It also has the AOSP lock screen instead of the modified android lockscreen. I like this better since I use a music player (Playerpro) that has lockscreen controls that uses the AOSP lockscreen sliders and I like consistency.

It also changes the tabs on the top of the phone and contacts app to a gray color instead of the blue.

The notification bar is the same that comes on Axura except I've put in the battery icons from beta 4. If someone likes the orange but wants the circle battery back, I'd be happy to provide that too.

You can just flash the file from CWM.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] dontshakepandas:
I'm working on it currently. I'm not really sure the best way to show the button press in a screen shot, but I'm going to take a few of the lock screen, notification bar, and the pull down. If you have any screen shot you'd like to see let me know.

I'd also like to point out that I didn't create any of these image files. I just pieced them together from other themes that I like.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
Hello...

Due to the corruption of the Data partition, i've installed android with System on NAND, data on SD Partition. Now, this leaves a few megs of space on NAND unused.

I've used atools, configured as i thought it would work:

​

Yet upon install and boot, i find out the System is on mtdblock2 (i do have mtdblock0 and mtdblock1). No swap partition mounted.

Could any of you kindly advise ? have I done something wrong ? Is this procedure... inadvisable ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Michga:
sry for OT.. but which batt do you have?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aceoyame:
I dunno why that wont work. If I were you I would just use Sys on nand, and then put data on an ext2.img and then swap on a swap partition of the SD card.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
2800 mAh. Cameron Sino.

And all that NAND waisting ? Why not use it as swap... its faster than any SD you put there... We're already slowed down by having DATA and Dalvik Cache on SD...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] vellowax:
how about this ;

/system and /data on Nand.

/data/app and /data/app-private on sd ext partition (symlink)(a2sd)

reduce the wasting space.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
Shared preferences would still be on data.... dalvik would still be on data...

Data... would still corrupt.

I referred WASTED space, by having Data on SD (being it in a partition or a img), and all that NAND... empty... unused.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aceoyame:
Why not repartition the NAND. I would have it then be 100% DATA and then nand and swap on SD. I just don't think we have swap working with the nand yet.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
You sentence makes no sense. 100% dATA and NAND AND SWAP on SD ?

as for the last sentence... NAND... is a block device... we can write to it with DD no ? we can format a block device, as we see fit.

What you can argue... is that NAND was not meant/planed... for highly changing and volitile... SWAP drive.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aceoyame:
I meant with the slider in a tools. Like for instance, I have mine set to 100% system right now with the build I am testing. I am saying it almost sounds like you want as little as possible in system with as much as possible in data. That is why I suggested sys in sd. That way once you boot everything else that you want to run is on nand in /data. The only reason I am saying swap my not work on nand is just due to the way things are mounted on our kaiser. We are not using a traditional way to mount our file systems. They get mounted through a script as it is right now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
Linux boots with a complex list of scripts. look at conf.d in any major distro...

or perhaps sysconfig... doesn't matter. We can mount the filesystems from a script, or form a script parsing /etc/fstab and running the appropriated mount.fs_here to mount it.

I understand what you say, but what HAS me more confused... is that i said Atools SYS on NAND partition 2, SWAP on partition 3.

I got system on mtdblockp2, there was p1 and p0 for reasons... i don't know.

Now, let me get this straight, to clear doubts.

We can only have, as of yet, RO filesystems on NAND, or filesystems i don't care what they contain.

Data.. is mounted RW, frequently altered. It would be obvious to have it on NAND, for speed, but to to the data corruption issue, we must have it on SD.

We can have System on NAND, its mounted RO, very rarely changed... so it SHOULD be safe. And we can have SWAP there too, i really don't care its condition after a reboot/crash :)

In another way of thinking... perhaps the Kernel devs can enlighten me here.

for the MicroSD card, i have in /dev/block/

mmcblk0 ; mmcblk0p1 ; mmcblk0p2 ; mmcblk0p3

but for mtd... i only get mtdblock0 ; mtdblock1 ; mtdblock2. Where's the "mother device" ? When we plug a usb card to a linux system, we get a perhaps, /dev/sdc. each partition will be sdc1, sdc2, sdc3 and so on.

Now, for the NAND, mtdblock... i don't get a mother device (don't know better term). I can fdisk -l the microsd, but not the nand...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Hm, not sure how you have yours setup, but I have mtdblock0-3 under /dev/block, and even have mtd0(ro)-3(ro) under /dev/mtd... Did you leave the Alter system and data checked? Mine's at the default 101MB for /system and rest for /data, as I can't change mine anyways, as it can't mount mtdblock3 cause the device cannot be found for some odd reason.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] clemsyn:
Basically here is what I'm currently doing with my 2.6.32 kernel with both system and data on NAND. I install apps and odex every single app in /data/app partition (this enables me to remove dalvik-cache on /data partition). Then I use Ubuntu and open my androidinstall.tgz and move all the apps that I odexed to /system/app fill up my partition to about 99 meg (Warning: not all /data/apps are functional in /system/app folder). Then I reinstall androidinstall.tgz with a full system partition. What ever app that can't be installed in system/app, I install again in my /data/app and odex it. This will fill up your system folder and you will have a lot of space in /data folder. I currently have 60mb free in my /data partition which is great, no errors for 4 days (1st day reboot, 2nd day battery pull, 3rd and fourth day running continously).

So basically, I maximize the use of the system partition by adding odexed apps, then remaining apps in data partition and odex it. BTW, the rom I'm using is odexed so I have no need of dalvik-cache thus freeing up a lot of data partition space :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] albertorodast2007:
Bad Naming? or is this like the diff between a primary and extended partition?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] l1q1d:
the mtd hasn't a "mother device" so there is this type of naming
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
I did Alter the system and data partition. Look at the screenshot in 1st post.

This, this is one of the things everyone should do. On every release. 'course that's my opinion. But its pointless to the question.

Is there a chance, that the partition is being created correctly, but the dev or block/dev simply not being created ??

update: indeed there is. I removed the Alter tables check, and now i have mtdblock0 through 3. System is mtdblock2.

I would assume, usually data would be on mtdblock3. yet 'swapon /dev/block/mtdblock3' gives me 'Input/Output Error'
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] l1q1d:
you need to mkswap to the nand partition but it isn't a good idea because the nand has a limited number of read/write cycle
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
every device has a read/write limit. NAND is specially LOW.

What i did:

mkdir /nand3

touch /dev/loop0

mount --bind /dev/block/loop0 /dev/loop0

mount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /nand3

dd if=/dev/zero of=/nand3/swapfile.img bs=1M count=100

losetup /dev/loop0 /nand3/swapfile.imf

mount -t swap /dev/loop0 swap

I got my swap on nand... i still have to deal with yaffs, but that might have its advantages, in reducing writes do the nand (against a pure swap partition)

After that i edited /system/bin/userinit.sh to reflect those commands. Should be enough for now...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] vellowax:
shutdown.d ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
Please explain.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] vellowax:
Sorry mate, don't take it too serious. its just our impression for unclean shutdown ( if we have init.d, why don't we create shutdown.d :))

But, why /system/bin/shutdown not really done its job.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
The problem is... shutdown works. Your device shuts down.

The issue... is not with shutdown/restart (with this too... but not only).

The problem is, hard crashes, shutdown because low battery, force restart via soft reset button... something damages the /data partition.

Now... to the devs... i've read somewhere... that the partitions are mounted via a script in initrd... am i correct ?

If so, when the device first boots (clean install), with the nbh set to system and data ON NAND, and we issue the install with clean data, 1st the partitions are formated (quick), then mounted on /system and /data, then androidinstall.tar is extracted to the respective dirs.

Well, this is the very first write of the partition. Everything works 100% UNTIL a reboot, for any reason. We might not have problems, but that doesn't mean there isn't any data corruption. Anyhow...

On the second and subsequent restarts, initrd mounts the partitions acording the settings in the nbh, and we have the normal start, prest d-pad center to menu... yada yada yada...

Nevermind this... partitions are mounted AFTER the bootmenu.

CAN the corruption start on the reboot process? can a normal boot, corrupt data due to any unforeseen issue ? this would be unnoticeable with the first boot and install, because even if something is damaging the partition, we format them. Any error is ... well.. gone with format

I'm i just talking gibberish here ??

P.S. Sorry for the offtopic...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] albertorodast2007:
maybe not... that's the point of a forum or a brainstormin, everyone brings their ideas (as looney they could sound) to talk bout a specific theme or problem. The problem could be as simple as that our kaisers are too slow to shutdown properly, just like when the shutdown delay on windows is too low and it doesnt give enough time for apps to stop and they crash on the next reboot. What about the dalvik cache? Wasnt it the main culprit?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aceoyame:
The cache isn't the problem, its the solution. Basically were trying to keep as many writes as possible from hitting nand which is triggering an instability.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] albertorodast2007:
oh...i see thank you from braking another paradigma on me aceoyame! :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aceoyame:
Yes our android is built upon work around after work around lol
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] vellowax:
i found this problem is not only in our device, several thread in several device is talking about this too.

actually i've never had a data corruption ( losing apps, losing widget ...etc ) for months.

but bad shutdown - yes, everytime i restart.

rarely the system crash -need to reset, but still don't have data corruption.

i used to tap taskkiller 1st after closing some apps or even before shutdown. ( anyone willing to try this ? )

so maybe this is what is causing the data corruption problem, we need to KILL all running background process 1st, then shutdown.

with this, remount /data ro would become optional.

But this won't solve problem for -clean unmounted all- before shutdown.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
In layman terms,

for i in 1 to 65535 { kill -9 $i }

mount -o remount,ro /data

shutdown -h now.

This would probably fix you issue. We can't remount data RO because its blocked, not even -f would do it.

As for the problem coming up in several different devices threads... we mostly use CM. From kaiser, to vogue, to Raphael, to diamond. They're mostly based on CM. The "bug" may come along way. Another option, is a badly written NAND block drive, with a BUG the yaffs somehow triggers.

[Nexus One General] Fresh & Minty:
After updating to FRG83D I'm unable to get swype working. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it but I still keep getting the same problem. Even though it's installed and selected as my keyboard under settings, only the stock keyboard shows up... I even updated swype to the newest version that came out yesterday I believe and same problem still. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :D
[Nexus One General] vzontini:
Not really help, but as a point of reference I am running FRG83D and the new Swype Beta is working on my phone.

I'm running Geo's ROM.

Since the previous update Swype has run slowly on my phone. The latest update doesn't fix it so I will probably go back to the HTC IME.
[Nexus One General] hiccuphell:
Not sure if this will help but i find the same thing no matter how many times i restore my device or load a custom ROM.

try selecting Swype keyboard in an individual app (obviously you need to have it set as the default keyboard in settings as well)

simply open an app (text message, email, etc) then hold down on the text box to get the edit text options pop-up and one of the options should be 'inout method' then simple select swype.

i think this is a bug....from my guess, they are just too swamped to fix some simple things.
[Nexus One General] GHOST99K:
Hmmm....i got my swype from 4shared.com and always worked.its a lil buggy on my N1 once in awhile but still running it fine though.btw my N1 is stock.
[Nexus One General] OrganizedFellow:
I also run Geos latest ROM, FRG83D, with Swype 2.15.56.14870.t100

You must be part of the beta to get the installer direct from Swype

I had a similar problem, go to the Swype Installer and select "get a license"

All you have to do is deactivate swype and it makes one automatically

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khar00f:
Go back to a stock rom with the appropriate PIT, and do a re-partition with Odin, also make sure you use the original samsung cable that came with the phone (in case you aren't), I personally have experienced issues with some other micro-usb cable, dunno why.

I just came back from that exact problem, Odin not running through the process. I searched the web and tried all tricks with administrator, XP-compability mode, JM5+512pit, changeing usb-port reinstalling drivers and so on.

I then switched to a Win XP 32bit computer(normally running Win7 64bit), installed the 32bit USB-drivers found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=728929 and flashed JM5 with 512pit useing odin 1.3, right after that I flashed JPU with no problems either.

I do not know if it has to be JM5+512+odin1.3, but it seemed to be the best way reading the web and it worked for me on the XP-machine.

so my plans for buying a Nexus S went gone in a flash :p:p:rolleyes:
