Im using the blue market posted in the theming section with the Bonzai ROM, and I also read that Mysteryemotionz was able to make the black work now and has posted it as well, have not yet personally used it myself though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MasterQu:
Moving from 1.1.2 to 1.1.3 was not so smooth for me. Had to install it twice. Once installed, The rom seems to run smooth but I usually use launcher pro and I am having issues with it.

On reboot of the phone the system is not remembering my default selections and widgets are not loading. I figure this is due to the new ext and script support. Once I figure this one out I'll post some test results.

Other than the forementioned issue seems to be running as strong as 1.1.2 .

Cant wait to see what the EXT mod does on .5 :D already getting 1550 on quadrant :)

This is a noob question, but how easy would it be to convert to ext, the zips on my SD card that I used to have installed, such as the droid multi touch keyboard and some boot ani's and sounds
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
My quadrant score on 1.1.3 without the journaling mod. Its going to be ridiculous when Mammon fixes that script lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] pjjohn73:
Getting 1610 on Quadrant w/o journal mod. But more important it feels fast! 5 hours into my work day with light to moderate use with 88% battery yet! (on v.1.1.2}

81% left after 8 hours at work
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Indeed, its super snappy. Love it and I cannot wait for the journaling mod. Have I mentioned it should be sweet? :P
[Epic 4G Android Development] optmsprim2:
+1 for the launcherpro widget issue on 1.1.3. This was also the update where I converted to ext4, tho I am confused as to how that relates to launchpro loading widgets. Fortunately I usually only turn my phone off when I'm loading up a new bonzai revision so it's not a huge deal :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
I decided to try a few reboots after reading your issues and found that while it did take my desktop vizualizer widgets a few moments to load it wasn't as long as on nebula and I had absolutely no issues with launcherpro. I was coming from Nebula 1.0.6 when I flashed 1.1.3 and as such I wiped cache, data, and dalvik cache. Since often times doing so is not recommended as a necessary step going between versions of a rom, is it possible you did not do this? If so I would recommend doing a back up of launcherpro through the setting and then reflashing the rom after wiping cache/data/dalvik cache.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
I have that issue too when LP is moved to my sd card but as soon as it gets moved back to phone issue is resolved....So what kind of issues did you have on your initial run? I just flash 1.1.2 this morning but have not installed/migrated to EXT4 yet. How much of a difference is there in performance b/w v.2 and .3? TIA! Am strongly considering trying it out, even though noobnl did make a strong argument of it possibly reducing the life of our phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
So would you say it is definitely worth doing? I have yet to switch over to EXT4 but the bugs seem to have been removed, especially when used over Bonzai.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
I think Noobnl is one of the smartest devs we have, but he is not infallible. One person in particular who came forward writes drivers for flash and he made it very clear that it is not dangerous at all, in fact he also said the only issue with the journaling hack is that if you were to shut off your phone while data is being written you will lose that data. His recommendation? Wait a few seconds after doing anything that would write data to pull your battery. Its completely safe and if there is any decline in the life of your data it won't happen within the next few years.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MasterQu:
Got everything running smooth. Appears the issue was with my data in titanium. When I restore my third party apps with data errors freezes abounded, plus like I said previously settings were not saving. I wiped and restored apps only and the issues have disappeared.

I'm thinking its going to be a while before everyone catches up to scripting so warning to everyone... most themes and mods will not work at present with 3.0.0.5 clockwork.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Sean Hicks:
Battery life is great! I'm in the sticks of ky, visiting a friend, roaming on who knows what attached to wifi. Recent update and ext4=at least 50% increase on a badly draining battery. Love it!
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
ok ive searched for quite a while and i give up..

please dont fry me alive for asking a question im sure has been answered but can i use a2sd with this rom?? if i can should i use ext2, ext3, or ext4 when i partition??? The only reason i am asking is b/c of the "fights" in the forum about ext4 writing more and killing the nand faster blah blah blah....would this help/ would i see speed benefits?

thanks.. again i apologize if this has been answered

Edit: i forgot to add that im on bonsai 1.1.2 and clockwork ...2 dont know if that helps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mikeschevelle:
Yep I can confirm a big (50% at least) increase in battery life.

I usually go to work with 100% and get home 8-9 hours later at around 30-45% depending on use. That was with Bonsai 1.0.4, which was way better than stock. However, today, my first day on 1.1.3 with EXT, I went to work at 70% and came home with 46%, so yeah, I dont need an extended battery now :D :D :D

Can anyone please give me step-by-step instructions to get my phone switched to the EXT4 file system, get CWM3, and Bonsai 1.1.3 installed?

if anyone would like to jump in and give a more detailed explanation feel free...i havent flashed 1.1.3 yet because im waiting to see what they can do and waiting for themes to be fixed so i cant really help with that...

forgot to say u should look around and get the ext4/rfs kernel instead of the one in oneclickext4....u probably dont need it as it is baked into bonsai4all now.. (i think)
[Epic 4G Android Development] spf2722:
All right, so I odin'd back to DI18 stock, then odin'd the dk28 modem, then flashed clockwork 2.5.5. All this was to go back to rfs from ext4. I flashed bonsai 1.1.3 and have been seeing some weird stuff. After logging into goggle account phone would vibrate and restart. After restart Google isn't syncing contacts or apps, but my calendar synced. I pulled the battery and restarts stopped. I did the restore process a second time and got the same results. Does it sound like a Odin problem. Bonsai, or coming back from ext4?

Seriously though, there's tons of documentation on these here forums to get you going in the right direction. Part of having fun with this phone is learning things by researching! This post is the current method of converting to EXT4 and CWM3; don't use the post that references my youtube video because that refers to EXT4 without CWM3. YUT!
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Any update on the script? I'm dying to give it a shot. I understand if he's been busy, just curious :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
you can find the keyboard and different themes for it here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=874205

it force closes when you install but delete the old android keyboard in /system/app (i think its latin ime or something like that) and it should start working flawlessy.

btw not sure if its the old android keyboard or a latim word pack but delete that and should work fine
[Epic 4G Android Development] fzammetti:
Just installed and looking good save for one big issue: after every reboot, any apps I've installed seem to not be there... shortcuts show the default icon and I get "could not launch the requested activity" when tapped. This is on home screens, apps don't show in the tray at all... they DO show in manage apps though. Any ideas? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mammon88:
Using scripts within the rom I was able to turn off journaling on dev/block/stl9 (aka system partition) but I'm having a hard time with our data partition.

The idea is to have to rom run the script at boot time.If I get it to work correctly then no more bat file. It will run within the bonsai rom.

If all else fails then I will look at changing the journal mode to writeback.

Different journal modes are:

"writeback mode" - best performance, worst protection

"ordered mode" - agerage

"journal mode" - worst performance, best protection

protection meaning logging.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mammon88:
Did you do any kind of restore?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
Wow thank you for that response! Really, I am so happy I switched to your ROM it is just amazingly fast and even my wife commented on how much she likes the font (she generally hates all of the modding I do to my phone). Its just a great rom all around.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fzammetti:
No, I actually just installed the apps fresh from the market, didn't have too many. I also haven't moved any to SD.

You got it. So after I do the EXT4 w/ CWM3 conversion do i simply boot up flash bonsai at that time after it's done.

Also after i'm booted and tooted, do i flash mammon's no journal mod?

Yes after you get cwm3 going you just flash it like you normally would.
[Epic 4G Android Development] justinglock40:
Ok one last question before i attempt this should i be running bonsai prior to doing the one click
[Epic 4G Android Development] pjjohn73:
81% left after 8 hours at work. Light usage, few short phone calls, few texts, browse market place few times and used the xda forums app and few other things, but even light usage that is pretty amazing. Think on Bonzai 1.0.4 the best I had was 75%. Great work Mammon
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
It's not supported yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Sh0wNuF:
This is a 2.2 rom so unless its a typo you went from di18 straight to this so it won't work you need to odin dk 28 then install clockwork and then flash the rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
thanks so much for the help!!

I agree. This rom if blazing fast especially when the animations are selected to fast in 'spare parts'.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zei:
I dunno if its possible but ive seen in the G2 forums and with my own eyes that along with the custom boot...you can also add your own boot sound...is it possible with your rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] lviv73:
If not too difficult can you make a barebone "minimal" version for people that like to mod roms?

I tried slimming down your rom with little success,i usually can get froyo rom down to 110-120mb range but this rom only 137mb which is strange.

To make this short,i would greatly appreciate if we can get a minimal version.Thanx in advance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Sh0wNuF:
I can also confirm that there is no battery full pop up, which is awesome, as is the rom...great work

I haven't tried this ROM yet, but by reading the posts, I'm going to give it a go. Quick question though, is it possible to add the hot spot app that you don't have to pay for that the user JR33 created? I think he ripped it from the galaxy 9000. I know it worked fine on the DI18 roms. If I remember correctly, someone had it working on a fro-yo ROM as well. The only thing was that I said AT&T Hot spot when you opened the program up.

[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Same problem here. I have a feeling it is the battery percentage mod, I've always had horrible results with that. Mammon, anyway you can make us an update.zip to remove that and use stock battery meter? Or is there any other cause for poor battery life? I pulled it out of the charger at 8 AM (100% charged) and already (8:55 AM), it's already down to 88%. That's the highest drain I've seen out of any ROM.

Also, what are the changes between v1.0.0 and v1.0.1?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
yea i dont quite understand about dalvik but if/when we get a2sd and dalvik cache on sd how much of a speed improvement can we see?

and in your opinion would it be better than bonsai ext4 mod?? (the whole "data can corrupt" turns me away)
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
I noticed a large improvement from dalvik to sd on eclair with baked snack. But by far this ext4 mod takes the cake. I'm liking it and as long as you don't pull your battery or do a hard reset before it writes what it needs to you should be fine. For his no journaling mod I think it's worth he risk. Just do a nandrid backup in case. Having journaling disabled will save a lot of resources and wear and tear on your flash memory. However ext4 fs and dalvik to sd would be an awesome combo. Everyone is worrying about this wearing down of the flash memory so why not move a much as you can to the sd card ya know?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Yea thats why i was hoping to use a2sd. And for that ive been seeing alot about getting a class 6 sd card. Would it matter if i use the stock card? In regards to the no journaling mod i think im going to wait for mammon to either bake it into the rom or change it to writeback mode... In the viper rom thread they have a2sd but im guessing it wont work because of the new ext4 fs? Cant wait for the froyo source to release!

And thanks for all the help and info
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
I've bought a class 6 card but I used to use the stock card. It says class 2 but everytime I would write to it, it would do at least 4 or 5 MB/s so I never noticed lag except on the app drawer upon intial startup. Once the phone was done booting up it ran the same as if the apps were on the ram. I have bought a class 6 card now because they can be had pretty cheap so why not. Actually writeback mode would be riskier than the second option because it has even less fail safes when it comes to writing data. I would like writeback because of performance, but if it's stability you want then I would hope he can get the script written with what he's got now.

Ps No problem, we're all here to learn right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
I guess il be looking for a class 6. And i thought writeback just meant journaling is enabled but writes/logs alot less then usual...and the mod would turn off journaling completely. Well i am still pretty new to all this so i guess il wait and see what mammon cooks up because it will for sure be the most stable.

And yea I still have alot to learn and im looking forward to it.

@Mammon

I was curious about installing the no journaling mod with cwm3 sooooooo...... I odined back to stock, rerooted, installed ext4 mod with cwm 2.5.1.2 then bonsai 1.1.2. Then I applied the journaling off mod and rebooted. Then I installed cwm3 and installed 1.1.3 on top of that. I did all this under the assumption that changes made to the fs will not be affected by new cwm install or rom install because it's on a lower level. Am I correct? Anyways, I do believe that my 1.1.3 version of your rom still has the mod applied because it is noticeably faster than it was without these steps. I don't know if this actually worked or if the info will help in your search for a cwm3 cure for your script but I thought I'd share. Also, is there a command I can type in adb to see if my journaling is enabled? Everything I searched about it referenced a different dev block than our epics. Thanks.

methods of restoring your apps and data..??

hey guys i am trying to figure what methods are better to restore apps and data after each flash cause i want whats better for the phone...you see i tried flasing the rom on top of the old one just to see if it worked but it was taking to long to load wayyyy to long so i thnk something was causing a boot loop...now i use either advanced restore and just restore the app but sometimes the apps that come with the rom sometimes erase and i try using titanium but also sometimes the rom stock apps erase so can someone help me out with some advice...and i dont want to do a full nand restore cause it restore the old rom for some reason i use to think i would flash the apps and data and setting over the new one but it does not...so thanks for the help please!

Same Problem

I am having the same problem. Is there a fix or is there a work around. I was on Bonsai 1.0.4 prior and did all the wipes.

When I first loaded the rom, Google restored my apps and everything seemed fine. After a reboot all apps i installed seemed to be missing.

I then used Titanium to retore my apps and again all was fine until i rebooted the phone and they all disappeared.

Even if i just install apps from the market they will disappear upon reboot of the phone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@Mammon, great rom btw....
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenvan19:
As to battery life I'm at almost 14 hours since unplugged with moderate to heavy use having been on wifi the whole time in a bad cdma coverage area with 63%.

If I'm doing my math right that is about 2.6% per hour meaning a projected life of about 38.5 hours.

Jeez this is just a phenomenal rom.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Sean Hicks:
I got one too.. it hasn't really changed much, wish I could say it did
[Epic 4G Android Development] Randy_T:
I'm not Mammon but...

The adb commands are:

adb shell mount -- will report all of the mounted filesystems. You'll need to look for your /system, /data and /cache mounts to see that they are mounted ext4. This will also show the mount options that were used in the mount.

adb shell tune2fs -l /dev/block/stl9 -- will show the tuning settings for that filesystem. If journaling is disabled, you will NOT see an entry for "Journal inode:"

You can also grab something like QuickSSHD or a Terminal Emulator app that would allow you to type the above commands WITHOUT the 'adb shell' right at the Linux command line.
